Rocks Was the Previous Op-Op Fruit User!

If not for Rocks, there was no way he could have grown this strong so quickly.

Although he had gained the Golden Finger later on.

He still truly owed Rocks some thanks for that.

Back then, he had not gone to save Rocks either. After all, what Rocks wanted to do was completely different from what he wanted.

So, from that perspective, he naturally would not choose to save Rocks.

Rocks wanted to become the king of the world. No matter what people said about him, Bai Ye understood this very clearly.

In this matter, Rocks's goal conflicted with his own.

So naturally, he could not save Rocks.

Even if he had saved him, would they not have ended up becoming enemies anyway?!

Would Rocks have given up on his ambitions and joined him?!

That was simply impossible!

You could say Rocks was loyal and righteous, or whatever else, but those things had always been part of him.

Yet it was equally clear that Rocks had never given up on becoming the ruler of the world.

In any case, they absolutely could not be allowed to continue like this.

Since that was the case, why did he need to intervene!?

"If you want to deal with Ochoku, now would be the time. We could even go with you. After all, that guy is a traitor to the Rocks Pirates!

"But I think you can handle him by yourself. You probably won't need us to step in, right!!!"

Old John had originally thought they could accompany Bai Ye and settle the matter together.

But after giving it some more thought, Old John suddenly felt that something was off.

If Bai Ye truly had a way to deal with this afterward, then there seemed to be no need for them at all.
