Barrett's Strength! Head to the West Sea

So many ships!

Chinjao's son looked around in surprise at the ship; in front, to the left, and to the right, there were rows of neatly moored ships.

Only a passage leading to the island was left in the middle, and their ship is now sailing through this passage.

Just how astonishing is the power that Deep Sea Current Umit possesses?

Is it really as legendary as it's said, that its reach extends to every corner of the world?

"Great! Okay!"

Chinjao's eyes lit up as he looked at the surrounding ships.

If we can control these ships and control Umit, won't the future development of the Flower Country be smooth sailing?

This trip also yielded a huge unexpected reward!

"But Pops, why is it so quiet?"

Chinjao's son frowned. "What exactly does that Umit guy mean?"

Has she given up all resistance?

"Hmph, hahaha!"

Chinjao burst into laughter, "Still can't understand? That Umit guy knows we're here, and he knows he can't resist us, so he's ready to compromise now!"

Hearing his Pops say that, Chinjao's son nodded in understanding.

That's right. Now that they know it's Pops coming, what can that Umit guy do?

Ultimately, aren't these so-called Underworld giants just Nezumi in the gutter?

The ship soon arrived at the end of the channel, where a massive dock stood.

"Um?"

There are some differing opinions about Chinjao.

In the area closest to the dock, there are giant snails, each with a unique building on its back.

What's this?

Did they move the town to the sea?

Chinjao frowned. Where had he seen these snails before?

"Pops, there's someone on the snail's back!"

"Chinjao's son said with some surprise."

Of course, I saw the Chinjao too.

People walked back and forth among the buildings on the snail's back, but they were all in a hurry and didn't seem to care about them at all.

I've really been looked down upon!

Chinjao gradually felt annoyed.

Don't these guys even want to give him a second glance?

Very good!

Umit, you just wait!

Chinjao jumped off the bow of the boat and surveyed everything before him.

Outside the dock was a spacious plaza, at the end of which stood a large building, only seven stories high, with huge warehouses on both sides and residential buildings surrounding it. The overall layout was somewhat similar to the Marine Headquarters.

Chinjao frowned. Where is he?

There was nobody in the square. What exactly did Umit mean by this?

They offered no resistance to their arrival, which was initially thought to be a sign of compromise, but now there's not a soul in sight!

"Pops, isn't something wrong?"

Chinjao's son, leading the Eight Treasures Navy soldiers, landed close behind Chinjao. The strange situation here made him feel inexplicably uneasy.

"Whatever!"

Chinjao snorted coldly.

Now that we're already here, are we going to let ourselves be scared away?

Maybe that's exactly what Umit was planning!

The Empty City Stratagem, is it?

"Walk!"

Chinjao strode forward.

He led his son and his men across the square, straight to the outside of that tall building.

"Here it comes, Chinjao!"

Just then, a voice suddenly came from above, "You've kept the Boss waiting for so long; you've already chosen your path to death!"

The Chinjao suddenly raised its head.

Above them, on the top floor of the building, on a large balcony, a man looked down at them.

"Pops, it's Umit!"

Chinjao's son quickly spoke up.

Are you Umit?

Chinjao's eyes widened instantly, and an invisible aura surged from his body, causing his beard to flutter. "Now you know why I came to find you this time, right?"

Chinjao didn't hear Umit's reply, but instead heard a young voice.

"Alright, Umit, I'll talk to him."

"Yes, Boss."

Umit respectfully stepped aside.

Boss?

Chinjao was filled with doubts. Hadn't Umit already inherited the family business?

What boss did he come from?

A handsome young man peeked out from behind the balcony, lazily looking down.

"It's you! Trying to ruin my business. Do you have the ability to do so?"

His business?

Is this the guy selling weapons?

An invisible current of air suddenly emanated from the Chinjao.

Good, good, good! I was thinking that even after finding Umit, it would still take a lot of effort to find the supplier behind the scenes.

But unexpectedly, it actually escaped on its own!

Court death!

Even though they were seven floors apart, Chinjao could still see the boy's appearance clearly at a glance.

Black hair and black eyes, fair skin, languid expression, and carefree smile.

Um?

The Chinjao paused for a moment.

Why does this look so familiar?

He subconsciously observed carefully, and then the more he looked, the more familiar it seemed.

Chinjao's facial muscles twitched suddenly. No, no way!

This guy is!!

"The Calamity Roa!!"

Beside him, his son cried out in alarm, "Pops! This guy is a remnant of the Rocks Pirates, the Calamity Roa!"

Today, almost everyone who makes a living on the sea knows him.

One of the most infamous pirates in the world, a true monster with a bounty of two billion, the Calamity Roa!

Are you kidding me? Are those weapons being sold by this monster?

However, it must be said that Chinjao truly lives up to his Conqueror's Haki; after a brief moment of surprise, Chinjao quickly regained his composure.

"The Calamity Roa!"

He even yelled at Roa, "We didn't know it was you! Sorry, let's leave it at that!"

This is bad. If the seller of the weapons is Roa, it will be impossible to resolve this issue at the source of production.

That's all we can do for now.

Chinjao thought, "Let's retreat first."

"Chinjao, are you teaching me how to do things?"

Roa looked down at the Chinjao with great interest.

That's pretty arrogant.

Not only is its head pointy, but its breath is also as loud as if it had eaten garlic.

But thinking about it, it's not surprising; the high seas are full of such madmen.

"What Lao Tzu meant was,"

An invisible aura emanated from Chinjao once again, causing his beard, clothes, and cloak to flutter. "There's no need to make things too ugly! It's better for everyone to stop here!"

In the end, he's just a kid!

He's not afraid of a fight if it really comes to it!

If bounties really do tell the whole story, then we should just surrender to anyone with a higher bounty! What's the point of being a pirate then?

"Oh my god, I can't take this!"

Roa waved his hands repeatedly with a look of disgust, "Bullet, hurry, hurry, go and take care of him."

Even Roger gives me face, why won't you?

You have already met a righteous end!

"Yes, Boss!"

Behind Roa, Bullet, who had been unable to contain himself any longer, leaped down, his face flushed with excitement as he plummeted toward the Eight Treasures Navy below.

"Pops! It's a subordinate of Roa, Mercury Barrett with a bounty of 460 million!"

Chinjao's son screamed in surprise.

It must be said that the Navy's ability to come up with nicknames is indeed difficult to assess.

They simply call Bullet "Mercury".

Incidentally, Abel's nickname is Descendant of Demons. In the World Government's propaganda, the Lunarian are a demon race that aims to overthrow the sea.

To be honest, this nickname is a bit similar to Bullet's nickname "Devil's Successor" in the original work.

"How dare you look down on me!"

Looking up at the falling Bullet, Chinjao erupted in fury, "Roa! I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"

Sending a subordinate to fight against you? You're really underestimating me!

Let's deal with this brat first, then we'll go find Roa!

The Drill Chinjao – that's how Haki he is!

Then.

"Quicksilver Cannon!"

A giant mercury sphere with a diameter of over forty meters crashed down on them.

"What?"

The Chinjao's pupils suddenly contracted.

There's an unwritten rule in this world: bigger is stronger, bigger is better!

Bullet's move was already quite a big one!

"Pops!"

Chinjao's son screamed.

"What's the panic! I'm here!"

The Chinjao shot up like a cannonball, its pointed head covered in jet-black Armament Haki, while an invisible aura swirled around it.

These shockwaves are not advanced Armament Haki, but rather the Hasshoken, a special martial art passed down by the Eight Treasures Navy. It is a martial art similar to Fish-Man Karate from Fish-Man Island, capable of unleashing powerful shockwaves with bare hands, making it both offensive and defensive.

In the end, he's just a brat who got arrogant and didn't know what he was doing because he's Logia!

Boom!

The pointed tip of the Chinjao collided with the huge sphere, creating a visual resemblance to a needle pricking a balloon.

Unfortunately for them, Bullet's Mercury Cannon is no pushover.

The Chinjao's expression changed drastically the moment of impact.

So heavy!

How could it be so heavy!

Furthermore, what's the deal with this powerful, exaggerated, and domineering Haki?

Unable to gain leverage in the air, after a brief standoff, Chinjao was directly crushed to the ground by Bullet's heavy punch.

The Eight Treasures Navy immediately scattered and fled.

Boom!

The ground was instantly pierced by the heavy mercury, creating a huge, bottomless crater. In an instant, the entire island trembled.

"Pops!"

The Chinjao's son, who reacted quickly and narrowly escaped, turned around in horror.

Are you kidding me? The invincible Pops got beaten up by a little brat?

"Amazing!"

Umit couldn't help but exclaim, "Lord Bullet, are you the same age as Boss?"

There are always some people in the world who are different.

Roa casually remarked, "That guy Chinjao just doesn't understand these things."

Judging from the Haki and physical skills that Chinjao just displayed, he's not far behind Max the Deceiver under Uncle Shiki's spell—a solid level of disaster.

However, his opponent was Bullet.

Bullet's Haki abilities and physique all improved rapidly within a year!

Bullet landed steadily on the ground and hissed, "Get out here!"

In the pit ahead, the wildly spinning drill suddenly shot into the sky, stopping its rotation as it flew through the air, revealing the shape of Chinjao once more.

"You brat!"

Chinjao's voice was ferocious, like that of a demon.

He was covered in blood from his head and looked like a wolf or fox.

They completely underestimated this kid!

Not only is Logia, but his strength and Haki are also incredibly powerful!

A thought suddenly flashed through Chinjao's mind.

If even a subordinate is this powerful, just how powerful must Roa himself be?

However, such a thought only flashed through Chinjao's mind for a moment, and anger became the driving force behind Chinjao actions.

We'll talk about Roa later. Right now, let's take care of this brat!

"Hasshoken One - Martial Head!"

The Chinjao spun in the air again, its pointed head transforming into a drill once more, heading straight for Bullet.

"Nonsense!"

Bullet sneered, his right fist bulging as he unleashed a massive, Mercury Heavy Punch with a backhand.

Boom!

A powerful gust of air swept through the air, sending dust flying everywhere.

"Forehead!"

The Chinjao was sent flying again.

Roa nodded in satisfaction.

A year later, Bullet and Abel have almost reached the level of disaster.

However, there are differences between different types of disasters.

How can an ordinary person like Chinjao compete with the invincible and powerful Bullet?

Whether it's physical strength or the intensity of Armament Haki, Bullet surpasses Chinjao.

"Pops!"

Watching helplessly as his Pops was sent flying once again, Chinjao's son was immediately covered in sweat.

No way?

Does even Kyobe, the demon under Roa, possess a tragic aura surpassing that of his Pops?

Oh no!

"Kid! Don't be so arrogant!!"

The Chinjao roared as they landed heavily, their violent aura instantly sweeping across the square.

"Conqueror's Haki?"

Umit gasped softly.

Although Roa always thought that Conqueror's Haki was too common, compared to the huge population of this world, this power still deserves to be called the legendary Conqueror's Haki.

"I already said, it's nonsense!"

Bullet's eyes widened, his Conqueror's Haki surging forth with an even stronger force than Barrett's.

The two powerful and Haki clashed, instantly unleashing a massive amount of pitch-black Inazuma.

"This guy, he has one too?"

Chinjao's son was so shocked he was almost numb.

In that case, his most respected Pops would have no advantage whatsoever over Roa's subordinate!

Is this the tragic power wielded by the remnants of the Rocks Pirates, the world-renowned monsters?

"Someone like you dares to provoke Boss?"

Bullet approached slowly, his size doubling with each step. "Let me show you how insignificant you are!"

Boom!

The solid ground of the square collapsed instantly under the immense weight.

A colossal Mercury Giant, nearly 100 meters tall, stood majestically in the plaza.

"Is this guy doing this too?"

Doflamingo was also watching the porcelain from upstairs, curled his lip in disdain.

A clumsy imitation of Roa and Kaido.

But this clumsy imitation caused the Chinjao's pupils to suddenly contract.

Collapse!

Amidst the strange sounds, a sudden surge of bluish-black Armament Haki appeared across the entire body of the Silver Giant, turning it completely black.

"Are you kidding me!"

Chinjao's son's voice trembled, "This kind of Armament Haki?"

Is he really a kid?

Is his Armament Haki truly inexhaustible?

That's outrageous!

"Prepare to die!"

With a calm announcement of the final outcome of the battle, the massive Mercury Giant slammed a punch straight at the Chinjao.

Such a behemoth will more or less move slowly.

However, it remained swift only at the moment Quan Bei launched his attack.

And coincidentally, Chinjao is also not a very agile player.

There's no escaping it!

The Chinjao's pupils constricted.

Then.

"Then bring it on!"

Roaring, the man with a bounty of over 500 million leaped to his feet, the shockwave above his head surging like never before.

"Hasshoken Secret Technique: Drill Dragon Nail!"

The ground was crushed by the Chinjao. He was propelled into the air like a cannonball, spinning wildly. The air he was carrying followed him, forming a tornado like a dragon.

Drill Dragon Nail, this is the ultimate secret of the Hasshoken, a powerful move capable of splitting even a perpetually frozen glacier in one strike!

Boom!

The massive, meteorite-sized fists collided instantly with the pointed tip of the green Chinjao, their Haki and frenzied clash ultimately unleashing bursts of black lightning.

The powerful shockwaves spread out in concentric circles, making the Eight Treasures Navy below somewhat unsteady on their feet.

"Don't delete it."

Roa was very interested in the way.

With his strongest attack, he managed to go toe-to-toe with Bullet; Chinjao does have some skill after all.

Unfortunately, it still came to an end.

Boom!

The Mercury Giant stumbled backward, and the Chinjao fell downward as well.

The two were indeed evenly matched.

But.

"Mercury Giant Cannon Barrage!"

Bullet regained his balance instantly and unleashed a barrage of punches like a storm.

The Chinjao that had just fallen to the ground suddenly changed its expression.

Is this brat's Haki inexhaustible? Can he really deplete it like this?

Without a moment's hesitation, Chinjao gritted his teeth and leaped up again.

Boom boom boom boom!

The mere aftershocks from their collision were enough to shake the surrounding buildings.

In the midst of the fierce exchange, Chinjao's expression gradually became unpleasant.

Monster? What kind of monster is this brat?

Doesn't he need rest? Can this level of technique be used indefinitely?

The Haki of Chinjao is a bit hard to match.

The consequence of not keeping up is...

Boom!

After a series of intense clashes, during another collision, the pointed tip of the Chinjao suddenly trembled violently, and then...

Wow!

Chinjao let out a scream, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. His proud pointed head was dented into his head by Bullet's punch.

He himself fell like a meteorite, crashing into the square not far away and creating a bottomless crater.

Is that all the skill you've got?

Bullet sneered in triumph.

And you dare to provoke the Boss? You really don't know what you're doing!

At the same time, Roa also received a phone call.

"Hahaha! Boss, are you dealing with that clueless Chinjao right now?"

"Li Jing has finished cleaning up."

Roa glanced casually at the desperate Eight Treasures Navy had gone down the well, and said indifferently, "Morgans, you're quite well-informed."

"Hehe, because I have a suggestion for you, Boss!"

Morgans on the other end of the phone chuckled, "You could go to the West Blue; the eight naval forces of the Flower Country are truly remarkable."

Especially their lieutenants, almost every one of them is a highly skilled officer at the rank of Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral.

"Whether it's subduing it or turning it into a spirit, it's a great help to alleviate suffering."

"Oh?"

Roa raised an eyebrow.

The light has clouded the treasures of the Eight Treasures Navy, almost making them forget their own tragic reality.

"In addition,"

Morgans continued, "The West Blue also has a very special well, namely the prevalent Mafia culture there!"

"The entire Underworld of the West Blue is controlled by the five major mafia families; they are the rulers of the West Blue's dark side."

The Five Great Families?

Are you referring to the Five Great Families of Dongjing, Ximen, Nangong, and Beitang?

However, Morgans understood what Roa meant.

"Well, it seems I have no choice but to go."
