Rocks Was Wounded
Thud!
Rocks's heavy punch landed on Rono's right waist!
Whoosh!
The next moment, Rono was sent flying like a human cannonball!
It flew for several hundred meters before crashing into a mountain peak and finally coming to a stop!
Is it over?
The Pirate present were somewhat reluctant to leave.
Even the Vice Captain Rono, would have a hard time taking a direct punch from Captain Rocks.
"No, Captain Rocks, he seems to be injured!"
Tick-tock, tick-tock.
Meanwhile, the Pirate discovered that bright red blood was dripping from Rocks' right arm!
The Pirate present were immediately shocked!
This was the first time they had ever seen Captain Rocks get injured in a one-on-one fight!
"Vice Captain Rono! He actually injured Captain Rocks!"
"As expected of the Vice Captain, this is the first time I've ever seen Captain Rocks get injured in a one-on-one fight!"
"That's right, this is the first time I've ever seen one! It's terrifying!"
The Pirate henchmen were utterly shocked, and so were the Division Commander like Golden Lion, Charlotte Linlin, and John.
This was also the first time they had ever seen Rocks get injured in a one-on-one situation!
"It's over."
"You're the first person who could hurt me in a one-on-one situation."
Rocks glanced at the bloody wound on his right arm, inflicted by the First Generation Kitetsu, and said admiringly.
Just now, Rono traded injury for injury, cutting his own right arm with the First Generation Kitetsu before being hit!
The powerful Conqueror's Haki: Entanglement broke through even Rocks's physically perfected body!
Whether it's this kind of quick-thinking combat experience or the powerful destructive force capable of dissecting one's own flesh.
All of this is enough to prove that the Rocks Pirates Vice Captain truly deserves the title!
"Take care of your injuries for the remaining three months. God Valley can't do without you."
After saying this, Rocks prepared to leave.
"Who said it's over?"
Just then, the smoke dissipated from the deep pit, and Rono's voice came out!
The next moment, a figure flashed and appeared in front of Rocks!
At this moment, Rono had obvious wounds on his body, and a trace of blood was seeping from the corner of his mouth.
There are some marks on my right waist, which look like they're slightly dented, but they're just minor injuries.
After all, Rono possessed the Physical Talent of Iron Balloon.
In addition, his Observation Haki the Future Sight, allowed him to sense the area being attacked.
Combine Top-Tier Armament Haki with a single, concentrated point for defense!
That's how they neutralized Rocks's full-force attack!
Otherwise... without any one of these abilities, it would be impossible to defend against that punch!
Rocks, the Overlord of the Sea, is truly terrifying.
"He was hit head-on by Captain Rocks and he's still alive and kicking!"
"As expected of Vice Captain Rono! How did he manage to pull through!"
"Unbelievable! Even any Admiral Level powerhouse couldn't withstand a direct punch from Captain Rocks!"
The Rocks Pirates members were stunned!
"How could he stand up after being punched by Captain Rocks?"
"I feel like if it were me, I'd be bedridden for at least three months."
"Hahaha, it seems like nothing matters at all!"
"That's terrifying! Has Vice Captain Rono's strength reached this level?"
Golden Lion, Silver Axe, Charlotte Linlin, and the others were all dumbfounded!
These Division Commander know best what Rocks was capable of!
After all, they had followed Rocks the longest!
That full-force attack, covered in Conqueror's Haki: Entanglement, hit head-on!
Even Admiral Level expert would likely be either killed or crippled if hit!
"Just how much has Rono grown?"
Even Whitebeard and Roger were amazed.
They knew that after taking that direct punch from Rocks, there was no way they could get back up so quickly!
It's only been three months!
How did Rono grow up so fast!
The gap doesn't seem to be narrowing at all; in fact, it's widening!
"Interesting... Hahaha, really interesting!"
After a moment of slight surprise, Rocks burst into laughter!
This guy's growth rate has exceeded my expectations!
Then get stronger, Rono, the stronger the better!
Boom! Boom!
The two sides clashed fiercely once again!
He utilizes his Physical Talent, the Iron Balloon, in conjunction with his Observation Haki, which allows him to foresee the Future Sight.
Although Rono was clearly being suppressed by Rocks didn't have a good way to defeat Rono quickly.
In each encounter, Rono gains a significant amount of strength, speed, and Stamina points.
The progress of the Three Types of Haki is also constantly increasing!
The intensity of the battle even enhanced Rono's understanding of Swordsmanship!
In the end, after a long and drawn-out battle, Rono lost because his Haki was completely depleted.
Rono's loss to Rocks was entirely expected.
No one expected that Vice Captain Rono would be able to fight Captain Rocks to this extent!
This was the first time they had ever seen someone who could fight Captain Rocks single-handedly and even go toe-to-toe with him!
Even Rocks was injured!
Even Captain Whitebeard and Golden Lion couldn't have done that!
Vice Captain Rono is truly the number one man under the Rocks!
Let's fight again in a week.
"Your injuries require a week of rest."
Rocks looked at Rono, Haki was exhausted and whose body was covered in wounds, and said.
Of course, Rocks also had some knife wounds.
He could sense that Rono was getting stronger in their battles!
Since that's the case, I'm willing to lend him a hand.
Hopefully, Rono can become as strong as possible before reaching God Valley in three months!
"Good."
Rono agreed, and when he looked at his system interface again, it had been completely revamped!

Rocks immediately summoned all his officers and prepared to head to God Valley!
