Invincible Loneliness, Hawkeye Arrives

The food Sanji and Zeff had prepared together was quickly served.

Roya frowned slightly as he looked at the dishes before him.

Although he had long expected that Sanji and Zeff's cooking might not compare to Stella's,

he had not expected the gap to be this great.

Sighing inwardly, Roya felt that Sanji and the others truly needed to grow before they could become stronger—or rather, before their cooking could improve further.

He did not pick up a spoon to eat the food before him.

Instead, Roya walked to the entrance.

At that moment, the Gluttony King was continuously burning the energy within his body.

Steam rose from his body.

His body had also turned bright red.

He looked much like the Gear Second Luffy would develop in the future.

But beneath the Conqueror's Haki Roya had been constantly releasing,

he had no way to move quickly at all.

Roya watched as the Gluttony King's body gradually grew thinner

with the rapid depletion of his energy.

Roya's eyes held a trace of contempt.

He felt that his mindset had ultimately changed somewhat.

As time passed, the law of the jungle upon the sea had sunk ever deeper into his mind.

It made Roya's pursuit of power increasingly intense!

At the same time, aside from his own people, Roya rarely showed his gentleness to anyone else.

Roya activated his Illusion-Illusion Fruit ability, and white mist traced the outline of an arm in the air.

The arm was coated in Armament Haki and directly seized the Gluttony King in its grasp.

Then it slowly moved outside.

Sanji had been watching Roya all along. When he saw Roya leave the Baratie,

he curiously followed after him.

Garp merely glanced at this before continuing to feast.

Unlike Roya, the old man was not picky.
