T0 Strikes Again! Come Fight Me

Roa flicked the Tiger Soul in his hand.

Laugh!

Snowflakes are flying!

In an instant, an invisible force cleaved a deep, narrow crack in the ground, stretching all the way to the edge of the snowfield.

At the same time, the crimson Inazuma wrapped around the blade began to converge inward, and the crimson longsword transformed into a lightsaber that shone with an intense red light.

That's it!!

Everyone's attention was drawn to the monster that had fallen from the sky.

There was no way to ignore him; his violent aura descending from the sky caused the snow on the icy plain to tremble and swirl!

"Is that... Harald, the Giant King?"

Dylan's tone was extremely solemn, "What powerful Conqueror's Haki! The heavens and earth trembled at it!"

Commanding the World's Strongest nation, the World's Strongest giant!

Even Rocks was captivated by him, regarding him as a lifelong friend—a monster!

Now, it has arrived!

"This guy is terrifyingly strong!"

Bullet stared intently at the monster descending from the sky, his body trembling slightly.

Of course, this trembling was not due to fear, but rather to an uncontrollable excitement!

As for enemies, they definitely need to be this powerful to be truly formidable!

"Harald! He's finally here!"

Dorry and Brogy, who had been beaten somewhat badly by Harald's good son, couldn't help but cheer.

No matter how powerful Roa is, everything should be fine as long as Harald intervenes!

The giants, who were terrified when Loki was sent flying, were now cheering.

"Your Majesty Harald! Kill this guy!"

Without them needing to urge them, a bolt of dark Inazuma shot into the sky, directly disrupting the clouds above—or rather, the clouds beneath the tree canopy.

The Inazuma originated from a massive longsword, held in the hand of the most powerful giant.

"The Elbaf Spear!!"

Roa smiled and said, "Take care of yourself, things might get a bit serious soon!"

"Yes, Boss!"

The cadres on the snail's back responded in unison.

Meanwhile, Roa's body was covered in a wild growth of jet-black hair.

Since Harald had taken advantage of the immense potential energy descending from the sky, Roa didn't dare to be arrogant. He immediately entered his orc form, flapped his wings, and soared into the sky like a shooting star.

The next instant, the swirling snow was pierced through, and two figures, one large and one small, along with two sharp blades, one large and one small, collided with a deafening roar!

No!

"Didn't encounter it!!"

Enel gasped in disbelief.

In the sky, Harald's enormous, mountain-like greatsword collided fiercely with Roa's light sword, which looked as tiny as a toothpick in front of it!

"It's coming!"

Dylan shouted, "Prepare for the charge!"

Boom!!

At the center of the collision between the two blades, space itself was almost distorted, and a pitch-black dot was born from it!

This black dot suddenly jumped!

Bolts of Inazuma, some jet black and some scarlet, exploded out!

At the same time, a violent shockwave spread out instantly.

The blizzard was instantly swept away, and the dark clouds above were cleaved open, creating a huge chasm!

The dense canopy of trees exposed above this chasm was trembling violently! It sent a powerful earthquake through the villages of Elbaf nestled in the canopy!

The ground below was in even more disarray, as the violent shockwave swept away everything on the earth.

The snow that had accumulated for countless years was blown into the air in an instant, and even the permafrost buried deep beneath it was shattered.

The all-consuming blizzard was thus formed.

"Drink!"

Bullet and Dylan simultaneously thrust their hands forward, their combined Haki forming a massive barrier.

Even so, the giant snail was also swallowed up by the blizzard.

Those giants who had no protection were even more unlucky; they were swallowed up immediately and then blown away.

Even powerful figures like Dorry and Brogy were blown off balance by the terrifying blizzard, and it took them a burst of strength to regain their footing.

In just a few seconds, a massive blizzard engulfed everything within a radius of several kilometers.

The hut was blasted to pieces, trees were snapped, snow was flying everywhere, and any unfortunate animals that came near were instantly swallowed up by the snowstorm.

"Oh dear! Isn't this going a bit too far?"

Roa flapped his wings to steady himself as he flew backward, and he smiled as he looked down at the scene below.

The blizzard was like a giant ring, expanding rapidly in all directions, recklessly devouring everything in its path.

"But isn't it spectacular? Harald, what do you think?"

"You brat!!"

Below, on the shattered frozen ground, a monster the size of a small mountain looked up at Roa floating in the sky, "Dare to act so presumptuously in Elbaf? Did Rocks give you the guts?!"

Only then did Roa have time to observe the giant king more closely.

Compared to eight years ago, the biggest change is that almost all the hair on his head has fallen out, leaving him bald, which makes him look even more fierce.

As he observed, he said with great interest, "Insolence? What makes you say that?"

"Harald, you're the captain's friend, so you're my friend too. I came here to discuss business with my friend, but I never expected to be treated like this."

Roa sighed, "Everyone says giants are warm and hospitable, but they're really disappointing."

"Friends? If they are true friends, then Elbaf will naturally give them the warmest hospitality!"

Harald's voice was cold, "But brat, we all know exactly what your purpose is! Stop pretending!"

"Don't say that. I'm genuinely here with the utmost sincerity to seek cooperation,"

Roa said somewhat helplessly, "For this reason, I even specially brought back the giant heroes who had been missing for seventy years."

As he spoke, he raised his voice, "Hey, Dorry, Brogy, you've eaten so much of my food, now it's time you said something for me!"

Not far from Harald, two tall snowdrifts suddenly burst open, and two chubby giants stood up.

"Harald! Long time no see!"

Harald was truly stunned to see the two giants, whose bodies were completely out of shape and who looked quite disheveled.

After examining it carefully for several seconds, he asked somewhat uncertainly, "Brogy? Dorry? Is it really you?"

"Of course it's us!"

Dorry laughed heartily, "It's been over seventy years, brother!"

"Didn't you go to duel?"

Harald was puzzled, "How did you get so fat?"

Well--

Brogy was somewhat embarrassed.

Because he couldn't beat Roa, he wanted to get revenge by eating all of Roya's food, and the result was something he couldn't even bring himself to say.

"But, did this kid really bring you back?"

Harald asked.

"Yes! They suddenly appeared, saying they wanted to discuss business with Elbaf and needed our help, so they captured us!"

Dorry's expression turned serious. "But Harald, just who is he?"

"This kid?"

Harald raised his head and looked up at Roa again, "He is the successor to the most insane pirate on the sea! And he is the most insane pirate on the sea right now!"

"He teamed up with a group of pirates to kill the Fleet Admiral, forcing the World Government to abandon the New World! Now that they've divided up the entire New World, the area where Elbaf is located will undoubtedly be the territory they've chosen!"

"What!?"

Dorry and Brogy were both stunned.

Kill the Fleet Admiral.

To force the World Government to abandon the New World.

They even divided up the New World.

Is this even human language?

Are all modern-day pirates this wild?

Honestly, if Elbaf hadn't been part of the partitioned territory, they would have applauded Roa.

However, isn't it a bit too exaggerated for a teenager to be able to do this?

"In short, this guy is after Elbaf!"

Harald's voice was solemn, "Dorry, Brogy, you're back just in time! Let's fight side by side again after all this time!"

"Although I don't quite understand just how crazy the pirates on the high seas are right now! But..."

Dorry raised the corners of his mouth, "If we can use our strength,"

"Take it and use it, bro!"

Brogy burst into laughter.

So the two of them raised their heads, their eyes fixed intently on Roa.

"Oops! How could you do this?"

Roa seemed extremely annoyed. "Isn't it wrong to repay kindness with enmity? Wouldn't I just be shooting myself in the foot and making myself look like a fool?"

This was also what Harald couldn't understand. Did this kid really think that bringing Dorry and Brogy back would make them help him persuade him?

"Father!"

Before Harald could even process this, Loki, who had just been sent flying by Roa's attack from behind, limped back, shouting, "Me too! I'll fight alongside you!"

"Loki, were you alright before that?"

Harald glanced back with some concern, especially after seeing the blood flowing from his youngest son's mouth, which made him even angrier.

"I'm fine! I'm ready to join the fight anytime!"

Loki respected his father more than Roa had imagined, patting his chest and responding loudly—even though the action aggravated the injuries Roa had inflicted, causing his cheeks to twitch, he was still as stubborn as he had been eight years ago.

"Alright! Let's go, Loki!"

Harald bent down and patted Loki on the shoulder. "Then let's fight side by side, father and son!"

Loki's face instantly lit up with a bright smile.

Could that coward Hajrudin, who fought alongside his father, really do that?

"Trying to bully the few with the many, huh?"

Roa looked a bit troubled. "Fortunately, I have quite a few men too."

Below, the giant snail, which had been pushed back a short distance by the shockwave, rumbled back.

On the back of the Giant Snail, Bullet, Dylan, Moria, Teach, Doflamingo, Bege, Enel, and others stood ready. Behind them were the four warriors, one of whom, Electric Blue, was missing.

That's not all.

A dark shadow suddenly flew across the sky, like a black line streaking across the sky.

"Boss! I'm not late, am I?"

Luffy way back from the Sky Island, Abel, looking somewhat haggard, flew behind Roa, flapped his wings, and hovered in the air, respectfully saying...

"Perfect timing, not too early, not too late!"

Roa raised the corners of his mouth.

Whether they return or not won't affect the upcoming victory, but more people mean more momentum.

Be careful!

Harald glanced at the Giant Snail, then looked up at Abel behind Roa. "This guy's subordinates are also quite powerful! Don't let your guard down!"

"Clear!"

Dorry and Brogy drew their weapons, which had become quite dull after seventy years of sparring, and nodded forcefully.

Then.

"But, do we really have to fight?"

Roa said with great interest, "If a fight really breaks out, I won't hold back."

"Do I need you to go easy on me?"

Harald pointed his longsword at Roa, "Bring it on, you little brat!"

"Oh, I see. Then I won't stand on ceremony."

Roa chuckled, "But don't you think it's a bit too dark here? It'll only make things feel oppressive if we fight. How about we add some light?"

Light?

Harald was taken aback.

Then, light suddenly shone from above.

Harald's expression changed drastically, and he looked up in disbelief.

Above, the clouds had been cleaved open by the fight between the two, revealing the branches and canopies even higher up.

Meanwhile, flames were raging on a huge branch above, spreading wildly to both sides of the branch: the treetop on one side and the massive trunk of the Adam Tree on the other!

"What!!"

Harald's eyes were bloodshot.

This Adam Tree, is too old!

Every fire is a huge disaster for this country!

"Harald! I almost forgot!!"

Dorry finally remembered this, his face changed drastically, and he looked panicked. "This guy's abilities are extraordinary! He can control lightning and fire at will!!"

"That's right!"

Brogy recalled the incident, his face contorted in equal grimace, "He once used the story of burning the Adam Tree to threaten us!"

Now, it's no longer a threat!

"That's why I asked you to help me persuade Harald. Why won't he listen?"

Roa sighed, "They completely forgot what I said. What can I do?"

"Stop! Roa!"

Harald roared furiously, slashing his sword directly at Roa, "What do you want to do to this country!"

"You completely misunderstand one thing, Harald,"

Roa calmly flapped his wings and created distance. With a casual snap of his fingers, a massive bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the sky, striking the enormous tree trunk in the distance that seemed to support the heavens.

Bear!

Even from such a great distance, the rising flames were still clearly visible to everyone.

"I said I came with good intentions, so if you reject those good intentions, all that's left is malice."

Harald's forehead veins bulged, and a violent aura emanated from him in waves.

But it meant nothing to Roa.

He simply looked down at Harald silently. "King of Giants, there's one more thing you should understand. The reason you were able to refuse the captain back then was simply because the kind and naive captain considered you a friend and didn't want to force you."

"But you don't want to be my friend, so I have no choice but to resort to some extreme measures."

Roa said slowly, "Harald, Elbaf has reached a crossroads of destiny! To be or not to be, what is your answer?"

That's why people say, why is an invincible person invincible?

If anyone threatened him with the Germa Kingdom or his subordinates, Roa guaranteed he wouldn't even blink.

But Harald, the benevolent king, was different.

"..."

Harald's teeth were practically ground to powder, and the muscles in his face were twitching uncontrollably. Even in this freezing environment, large beads of sweat were dripping down his face.

Beside him, Loki looked blankly at his father's back, then looked up blankly at Roa.

Meanwhile, Dorry and Brogy were equally furious.

Roa!!

What a despicable man!

No wonder they didn't care about their counterattack at all!

Then.

Harald's aura suddenly faltered, his energy and spirit vanished by three-tenths, and he aged more than ten years in an instant. "Roa, what exactly do you want?"

I accept my defeat.

Even so, his tone remained impassioned. "Don't even think about pushing your luck! Otherwise, we'll fight you to the death, even if it costs us all of Elbaf!"

Roa's lips curled into a smile.

It's that simple.

The captain and Aunt Linlin are overthinking things.

"As I've already said, I'm here for a collaboration that benefits both sides!"

Roa chuckled and said, "But before that, Harald,"

"Let's have a fight."

"What?"

Harald was indeed stunned.

He's already admitted defeat, why does he still want to fight?

Are you sure?

He was somewhat suspicious. "I won't hold back!"

"That's exactly what we want—no mercy!"

"I'm laughing, "Roa said.

Harald, with your Observation Haki that allows you to foresee the Future Sight, it's all up to you.

Let my Observation Haki be elevated once more, reaching an even higher level!
