Calamity City. Nothing Is Missing Anymore! Gotta Give It to Roa!

Calamity City.

Roa is feeding the fish.

He stood in front of the enormous fish tank in his palace, tearing apart a dried fish in his hand.

"What a pity,"

Roa patiently tore the dried fish into strips with his hands, then casually tossed them into the fish tank in front of him.

"If the Whitebeard uncle is still in his prime, then I'll go there myself."

Inside the enormous fish tank, beautiful mermaids were scrambling for the dried fish that Roa had thrown in.

Yes, the saying "oranges grown south of the Huai River" still applies even in this alternate world.

The mermaids living on Fish-Man Island do not eat fish, but the mermaids living in the Roa Fish Tank have changed this habit and are eating fish very happily.

Living things are truly amazing.

Roa felt he was ready to publish a paper in the newspaper.

While tossing around dried fish, Roa sighed deeply, "That wretched Imu! It's all your fault, you bastard!"

If it weren't for Imu, I wouldn't have traveled twenty-five years into the past to arrive in this era.

If he hadn't come directly to this era, he wouldn't have missed Whitebeard's peak and would have been able to achieve the feat of defeating the three legendary pirates at their peak.

However, Whitebeard is now old, weak, and plagued by illness, so fighting him is pointless.

Ah, what a pity. In his last encounter with Whitebeard, he couldn't do anything to him.

They've already missed out on the captain, and now they've missed out on Whitebeard too.

"If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have given him a piece of Pure Gold back then."

Roa threw all the dried fish in his hand into the fish tank, clapping his hands as he exclaimed.

"Snort."

Hancock had been standing expressionlessly behind Roa like a statue, suddenly curled her lips into a cold snort upon hearing this.

Disgusting guy.

Ultimately, it's nothing more than a sense of superiority stemming from a belief in one's own strength.

If the enemy were truly strong enough to make him wary, this guy wouldn't be wasting his breath here talking nonsense; he would have already resorted to any means to achieve victory.

"You don't understand, Hancock."

Roa glanced back slightly, smiled, and said, "For me, there are indeed fewer and fewer interesting people in this world."

What's it to me?

Hancock rolled her eyes, too lazy to even waste words with Roa.

What's the point of talking to this monster?

She had come to understand that Roa was a monster that fed on human suffering.

The more pain and anger he felt, the more pleasure this bastard found in it.

Staying calm and ignoring him will only annoy him.

It was at this moment that the green-haired woman hurried over.

"Oh,"

Roa turned around with interest. "Did Shi bring me some good news?"

Before Hancock arrived, Roa's most beloved woman, Kozuki Toki Amatsuki, calmly spoke,

"Shirahoshi is now able to communicate smoothly with the Sea Beast."

"Oh?"

Roa's eyes lit up immediately. "So, the moment when my abilities are fully Awakening is very close?"

"Very good!!"

Roa's lips curled into a smile. "The moment her abilities fully Awakening, it will all be over!"

If Aquaman's power is intended to defeat Imu or the Dragon of the End in Shanks' hands, then of course it's insufficient.

No matter how rampant the Sea Beast may be on the high seas, they are powerless against the monsters floating in the sky.

However, the Sea Beast are not the key point; the key point is what Shirahoshi will be able to do with all the Sea Beast in the world after Shirahoshi powers Awakening.

Roa was absolutely certain that even if he did nothing now, even if all his forces disappeared, as long as Shirahoshi's abilities were fully Awakening, then his victory would be a foregone conclusion!

"Keep going! Let Shirahoshi keep practicing! I can't wait!"

Roa was full of anticipation, his face radiating youthful longing.

Hancock pursed her lips.

What is this monster hoping for? What does it want to do?

Hancock was unaware of this; she was simply praying silently in her heart.

Robin, it's all up to you guys!

Paradise, Stone Island.

Amid Kaido's furious roar, Teach leaped into the air, his right fist, wreathed in some mysterious black substance, slamming heavily into Whitebeard's face as he flew towards him.

The crescent-shaped beard was completely erased by the black substance in an instant.

Whitebeard caught a glimpse of Teach's maniacal grin out of the corner of his eye.

Rocks, you idiot son, apart from this face, he doesn't resemble you at all.

Boom!

Whitebeard's face was blasted apart in that instant. The immense pressure of the Dark-Dark Fruit combined with the Hellfire of the Cerberus Fruit completely disfigured his head.

The World's Strongest Man for a long time, was suddenly sent flying in a spinning motion.

But just as he flew off, Teach raised his left hand, "Dark Water!"

The dark gravity kicked in again, and Whitebeard was drawn in once more.

"Dark Emperor!!"

The pitch-black substance suddenly expanded, and like a writhing mass of chaos, it was flung towards Whitebeard by Teach.

Boom!!

The darkness exploded in an instant.

A massive, pitch-black spiral suddenly shot into the sky, piercing through heaven and earth like a pillar supporting the heavens.

"Thief, hahaha!!"

Teach stood before the massive, dark pillar, arms outstretched, laughing wildly as if embracing the heavens and earth.

Now, only one last step remains!

"You bastard!!"

An iron rod came hurtling towards him.

Teach nonchalantly swung his fist to meet the punch.

The jet-black iron fist and the jet-black iron rod collided in mid-air, and the resulting Haki Inazuma once again cleaved through the clouds and tore apart the earth.

"Pops!!"

Amidst the earth-shattering roar, the desperate cries of the remaining members of the Whitebeard Pirates seemed so faint, almost like the chirping of insects.

"Thief! Hahahaha!"

As Teach was knocked back by Kaido's blow, Teach activated Dark Water again, and a figure was pulled out once more from the towering black whirlwind.

It's Whitebeard.

His body was twisted, covered in traces of ice and corrosion left by the fires of hell.

Teach grabbed the man by the neck, holding an apple in her other hand.

"Zeiha, zeiha, zeihahahaha!!"

Amidst maniacal laughter, the final Dark Water was unleashed.

Whitebeard felt himself sinking into darkness.

I'm sorry, children, this is the most I can take you this far.

Also, Roa, this won't end like this.

Perhaps in the near future, or perhaps in the distant future, as long as people continue to pursue freedom, there will always be those who challenge you...

Darkness swallowed everything.

"Thief! Hahahaha!!"

Teach laughed wildly and threw the Whitebeard corpse aside. Looking at the blue and white fruit in his hand, which resembled a pear with cracks at the bottom, he was so excited that his whole body began to tremble.

"Finally! Finally!!"

In the sky.

The Golden Lion slowly exhaled a smoke ring. "What a pathetic end, Newgate."

If he hadn't chosen to side with Roa back then, would Whitebeard's fate be the same as his?

"Mother, Mother! So many people came to his funeral, he died a worthy death!"

Charlotte Linlin grinned, but as she smiled, her eyes held a deep wariness as she looked at Teach.

Is it coming?

"Pops!!"

Vista, covered in wounds, looked at the motionless Whitebeard lying on the ground and almost cried tears of blood.

Dead?

Is their Pops dead?

"You scum!!"

Jozu was closest to Teach, suddenly sprang into action.

Even covered in blood and severely injured, he transformed his body into diamonds and, driven by rage, charged at Teach like a locomotive.

Teach, on the other hand, couldn't wait any longer and took a bite of the fruit in his hand.

Here it comes! Here it comes!

The final strength!!

"Thief! Hahahaha!"

Teach laughed wildly, "Now, I lack nothing!"

"Go to hell!!"

The diamond train engine crashed into us.

A dangerous smile crept across Teach's lips, and he clenched his right fist.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, a white halo spread from his fist.

"What!!"

Vista could hardly believe what he was seeing.

"How could such a thing happen!"

But the reality was that Teach's fist, wreathed in white shockwaves, slammed heavily into Jozu.

"Snap!!"

Jozu's entire body began to tremble violently, and his diamond-shaped body began to shatter in an instant.

It wasn't just his body that was shattered; the earth was also crumbling, and the air itself was breaking apart.

The powerful shockwave spread outwards from Jozu, tearing apart the earth, shattering the sky, crushing villages, overturning farmland, and devastating forests, finally surging out of the island and causing the sea to surge violently.

"Hahaha! This power!!"

He pulled out another apple with one hand, and at the same time used Dark Water to pull Jozu back after he was knocked away. The power of the Diamond Fruit could not be wasted.

At the same time, Teach stared intently at the shockwave emanating from his clenched fist in his other hand, "This is my complete form!"

Zoan Cerberus Fruit) boosts physical abilities!

Logia Dark-Dark Fruit, effective against users of Devil Fruits!

Paramecia Tremor-Tremor Fruit, increases destructive power!

Flawless, without any flaws!

Even more outrageous was Teach's mind!

The Lineage Factor implantation surgery is achieved using Devil Fruit modification technology!

By implanting Lineage Factor into Devil Fruit, the human body can be modified!

So, if I possess three Devil Fruit abilities, can I simultaneously possess three different Lineage Factor abilities?

Although the power of Lineage Factor is naturally much weaker than that of Devil Fruit, it's better to have it than not!

Furthermore, if the other two abilities were also developed to the point of Awakening—

Am I truly able to approach the level of the Boss?

"Thief, hahaha!!"

Accompanied by his maniacal laughter, black energy emanated from his left hand, while shockwaves spread from his right, and his violent aura surged forth.

"That guy!!"

Charlotte Linlin's face darkened.

That bastard's Conqueror's Haki is getting even stronger!

He has indeed crossed the line that even Shikikaido couldn't shake, and begun to evolve into a completely new realm!

"You bastard! Then let me test your strength!"

With a roar, the ferocious dragon-man launched himself forward, shouting, "Great Powerful One - Thunderclap Eight Trigrams!"

On the pitch-black iron rod, Haki Inazuma danced wildly like a raging dragon!

This strike is enough to shatter the island beneath our feet!

"Hahaha! You've come at the perfect time!"

Teach's smile remained unrestrained and arrogant.

The black mist of the Dark-Dark Fruit, the black flames of the Cerberus Fruit, the shockwaves of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, combined with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, all converged on Teach's right fist, creating an effect reminiscent of Roa's favorite elemental turbulence attack!

"Darkness Tremor Shatter!!"

Boom!!

The surging darkness instantly engulfed half of the world, and it wasn't just darkness, but also shockwaves and Haki that threatened to shatter everything.

Kaido's pupils began to contract at that instant.

Such power!

The darkness continued to spread, eventually engulfing Kaido.

The next instant, a figure shot out from the surging dark waves.

Kaido landed awkwardly on the ground, staggering backward, but the man's face was now filled with excitement.

"Hehehe! Let me see if you're qualified to say you've surpassed human limits, just like Roa!!"

Meanwhile.

"Pops... Jozu..."

Vista, who could barely get up, stared blankly.

What on earth is going on? Why did that Teach use Pops's power?

Did he steal his Pops's power because of that fruit?

But that matter is no longer important now.

Marco is dead, Jozu is dead, and Pops is dead. The Whitebeard Pirates' journey ends today.

Vista, trembling, used his twin swords to support himself as he tried to stand up.

Even if he dies, he will die standing up; he will never disgrace his Pops.

But it was precisely at this moment that...

"Hold head high!!"

A roar suddenly came from the distant sky.

"What?"

The Golden Lion in the sky, Charlotte Linlin, and Teach and Kaido clashed again. Everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look at the distant sky.

On the distant horizon, a dark cloud is rapidly approaching.

It was a dragon, a huge black dragon.

"No way!!"

Teach's expression changed abruptly.

"The Dragon of the End?"

Kaido frowned as well, "How did this monster end up here?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Retreat! Are you really that fast?"

The Golden Lion stared intently at the black dragon that streaked across the sky like a shooting star, rapidly approaching.

There was no time to linger; in a few seconds at most, the dragon would descend upon the island.

"Good!"

Charlotte Linlin didn't hesitate either; she gestured, "Open the door!"

Then, in mid-air, a clicking sound was heard.

A huge Air Door opened.

Charlotte Linlin was the first to fly in on a cloud.

"Let's go. They're not an opponent we can handle."

Jin Shizi followed closely behind and entered the Air Door.

"Tsk."

Kaido his tongue in annoyance.

If he could, he would still very much like to challenge this Dragon of the End.

But this thing is even stronger Roa; staying here will only lead to certain death.

So, no matter how unhappy he was, Kaido jumped into the Air Door.

"Hahaha! There's no other way, let's retreat!"

Teach didn't hesitate at all, leaping high into the air.

But just as he was about to rush into the Air Door, he turned back and unleashed a powerful strike at the island below.

Shockwaves, black mist, black flames, and Haki —the constantly vibrating chaos was thrown down by him.

"Dark Emperor!"

The instant the Air Door closes.

Boom!

Darkness swallowed everything.
