One Piece: Fist of the World.

Chapter 159: Tyrant Fist: Galaxy Reversal
As Rhodes' voice fell, a dark and fiery domineering aura surged in his body.

Bang!
Accompanied by a loud bang, the yellow sand under Rhodes' feet instantly dissipated, and the scattered yellow sand flew in front of Smoker's eyes, causing Smoker to be confused for a moment.

what happened?
The person suddenly disappeared.

The next moment, Rhodes appeared in front of Crocodile, clenched his open palm into a fist, and the domineering aura in his body surged wildly.

"Ba Quan: Galaxy Reversal!"

As Rhodes swung his fist, strands of black lightning flashed on his fist, and an invisible impact spread out from his fist. The outward domineering aura combined with the shock wave combined to encompass everything in front of him.

Crocodile only felt a terrifying force acting on his body in an instant, and the armament domineering that permeated the entire space and attacked him wantonly made it impossible for him to even transform into an element.

boom! ! !
The accumulated power exploded in an instant. Under the influence of Crocodile's ability, the yellow sand that was flowing like water stopped flowing instantly. Then, under the violent impact, the yellow sand exploded and flew in all directions.

Pekin and his companions, who had been forced underground by Crocodile's power, were also shaken and sent flying by the sudden impact.

puff--

The terrifying force attacked Crocodile from all directions, and the domineering aura released directly penetrated into Crocodile's body, destroying his body madly.

"How can he be so strong! "

Crocodile opened his eyes wide and looked at Rhodes, his eyes full of madness.

Rhodes' punch reminded him of that terrifying man.

The great pirate known as 'the strongest man in the world', one of the 'Four Emperors' of the New World, 'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate!
When he challenged Crocodile that year, the opponent used such a domineering and unmatched punch to completely destroy Crocodile's dream.

But why does this little kid in front of me have such powerful strength!
"Super critical hit!"

Feeling the terrifying power of the punch he had thrown, Rhodes was a little stunned at first, and then he suddenly understood.

Before the gambling began, Bakara overdrew her own "luck" in order to ensure Rhodes' victory, and transferred all of it to Rhodes. For this, she is still suffering from bad luck.

Rhodes, who was endowed with good luck, was very lucky to trigger the "critical hit" effect in the battle!
Moreover, it is a 'super critical strike' that is far more powerful than the ordinary ones!
"I don't think they'll just kill him."

Rhodes grinned as he looked at Crocodile who was suppressed by his punch.

The next moment, even more powerful force emerged from Rhodes' body, and his arm swung down suddenly.

boom! !

The power of Rod's punch exploded completely, blasting Crocodile's body into the ground, leaving a huge hole in the desert, and the surrounding yellow sand continued to flow into the ground.

"monster···"

Smoker looked at the bottomless pit on the ground in shock.

Is this really something that can be accomplished purely through physical skills?

"Boss Rhodes has become even stronger!"

Pei Jin and Xia Qi looked at each other.

As they get stronger, Boss Rhodes is also getting stronger!
Moreover, he is getting stronger at a faster speed than them!
"Yohohoho~~ It's so amazing, my eyeballs are about to fall out, even though I don't have eyeballs anymore."

Brooke's legs kept moving, running on the flowing yellow sand.

Because only bones were left, his body was very light and he could run even on the sea, let alone in the desert.

It was the first time he saw his captain using all his strength. This terrifying power shocked him while also making him a little excited.

It's really reliable to have such a captain!
"I'm not strong enough!"

Although he was sucked into a mummy, Daz Bonis did not lose consciousness. He was held in Smoker's hand and saw the power of Rhodes' punch just now.

I thought that after this period of training, I had initially mastered the Armament Haki and entered the realm of [Iron Cutting], and I was qualified to follow Captain Rhodes, but this battle gave him a heavy blow.

He still needs to continue to work hard on his cultivation!
"Are you going to kill him?"

Nelu took a look at the dark hole left in the desert.

Even if Crocodile died directly from that punch just now, he would not find it strange.

This kind of power is beyond the scope of human beings.

"how come."

Rhodes shook his head.

This world has a high blood count per capita, but it's not so easy to take someone's life.

What's more, he is a veteran strongman like Crocodile. After all, he is a strong man who once fought with the world's strongest man Whitebeard and escaped unscathed. He is a "silver medal player" in the world second only to those monsters standing at the top.

What's more, he had no intention of killing the other party.

In the New World, the pattern of the Four Emperors has been formed; the three natural admirals of the navy have also gained fame through one battle after another, intimidating the whole world; and the recruitment of the Seven Warlords of the Sea has created a three-party check and balance situation in today's world.

The Navy and the Four Emperors are opposed to each other, but they will not easily start a war; the vacillation of the Seven Warlords of the Sea has provided some buffer for this confrontation between the two sides.

However, this situation was not what Rhodes wanted.

In the original timeline, it was because of the sudden rise of the Straw Hat Pirates that the system of the Seven Warlords of the Sea was challenged and the original balance was affected; afterwards, Blackbeard captured Ace, and the resulting War of Marineford caused the already fragile balance to collapse in an instant.

After the Battle of Marineford, the situation in the New World was turbulent, and the navy carried out drastic reforms. The system of Seven Warlords of the Sea was later abolished, and the entire ocean entered a new round of struggle for hegemony.

However, it is only 1517 now, and Rod does not have the patience to serve as Shichibukai for a few years, waiting for the Straw Hat Luffy who carries the "destiny" to go out to sea and open the prelude of a new era. He wants to stir up the storm in his own way and finally seize hegemony!
And the first breakthrough point he chose was the Seven Warlords of the Sea!

These former 'silver medalists' of the ocean, who had been dormant for various reasons, will rush back to the New World to stir up the ocean that has gradually calmed down due to the confirmation of the 'Four Emperors'.

Whether it was Gekko Moriah who once fought against Kaido, the King of Beasts, or Crocodile who once challenged Whitebeard, they were all gifts that Rod presented to the New World before he entered the New World.

"ran away."

Nelu's observation Haki sensed a powerful aura that was quickly leaving.

"Want to chase?"

Naylu looked at Rhodes.

"Hang it in the back."

Rhodes said after thinking for a moment.

He really couldn't guess what Crocodile was going to do next.

After receiving his punch, he didn't even have a decent counterattack and just chose to leave. This was very different from the Crocodile that Rhodes had imagined.

Given the crocodile's personality, even if it realized that it might not be its opponent, it would not run away so decisively.

After all, he once challenged Whitebeard, and in the subsequent Battle of Marineford, he still dared to punch the Four Emperors and the admirals.

Under the ground.

Ugh~~
Crocodile opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, then covered his chest with a grim look on his face.

After Rod threw the punch, he was sure of one thing.

His original plan to kill Rhodes and his crew as well as the navy who had the ability of the Smoke Fruit could not be realized.

Although he was very annoyed by this sudden situation, Crocodile still considered the most important thing at the first time.

Pluto!!
In any case, after the navy knew his plan, there was no way they would give him the chance to continue staying in Alabasta.

In this case, there is no time for me to slowly improve the original plan, and I can only choose the simplest and most brutal way to achieve my goal.

Rush into the palace, capture the king, and force him to reveal the truth!
Crocodile had a sinister smile on his face.

Maybe this is the approach that should have been taken from the beginning!

This is the way pirates do things!
A stream of fine sand was moving rapidly underground, and Crocodile directly flew towards Albana, the capital of Alabasta, in an elemental way.

···
"Where's Crocodile?"

Smoker calmed himself down, looked at Rhodes who was walking over, and asked in a deep voice.

"He ran away."

Rhodes rubbed his head and looked distressed.

"That guy is a nature-type ability user after all, and he's in the desert. If he wants to run, I won't be able to find him at all."

"He actually got away!"

Smoker gritted his teeth.

"If we let this guy with huge ambitions get away, who knows what kind of harm he will bring to the world!"

"The most important thing now is to quickly report what happened here."

Rhodes patted Smoker on the shoulder.

He did not dislike this navy whose mind was full of justice.

He is just, cares about the people, and doesn't have all kinds of messy thoughts. If the navy and the world government in this world were all people like this, he might also choose a different path.

However, there are not many navy men like him.

The most important thing is that the World Government is filled with all kinds of despicable people, and fundamentally cannot represent "justice".

"Although we did hear Crocodile say that he was looking for ancient weapons, we don't have any definite evidence. And that guy is still a member of the Shichibukai. Logically speaking, your navy cannot attack the Shichibukai at will."

"You should think about how to report what happened here to your superiors."

Given the World Government's taboo regarding the blank 100-year history, Rhodes had no doubt that the World Government would revoke Crocodile's status as a Shichibukai.

Even if it is just hearsay, as long as it is related to ancient weapons and the blank hundred years, the World Government will act without hesitation. Even the Demon Slaying Order can be launched directly, not to mention the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

However, the World Government also needs to think of another reason to announce this matter.

What Crocodile is going to do next will probably give the World Government a perfect reason.

Rhodes glanced at Naylu, who nodded slightly.

Combining the map of Alabasta and the direction Crocodile left, it was not difficult for Neyle to determine the other party's destination - Albana, the capital of Alabasta!
