Newgate! Let's Go!

"Houka, you..."

Rocks looked at the fallen Blackbeard Teach, his face still somewhat conflicted.

"Rocks! The old you wasn't this hesitant and indecisive!"

"I think you're better suited to stay behind in that world. I'll bring Linlin and Loki over!"

Houka shrugged. If Rocks truly couldn't bring himself to do it, then Merry could become the Dark-Dark Fruit user instead.

"Houka, don't force him. Family is his weakness."

"Rocks, why don't you go back first?"

Newgate spoke up, interrupting the tension between Houka and Rocks.

Otherwise, a few more gods might pop up too soon.

He directly sent the Straw Hat Pirates and
