One Piece: Lord of Disaster.

Chapter 212 So-called Freedom! A Battle of the Strong! World-Destroying!

Time goes back to earlier times.

The edge of the floating island.

"Boss, I wish you great success in your military endeavors."

Dylan said with a smile.

"So,"

Luo Ya stood on the edge of the cloud, his back to his subordinates.

"Roya, launch the attack."

Taking a step forward, the body is instantly captured by gravity and plummets downwards.

The day has finally come!

Luo Ya couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

I can already clearly feel Roger's presence down below!
Whether or not this battle can defeat him, the beginning of the Great Pirate Era is just around the corner!

Good days are coming!
How delightful!

The wind whistled in my ears, and my body pierced straight through the white clouds.

But Roya showed no intention of spreading his wings or using Moonwalk to stay airborne.

He just smiled as he free-falled.

Soon, the clouds were pierced, and Roya could clearly see the islands below.

Further down, you can see Roger barbecuing on a pillar in the center of the island.

Roja couldn't help but raise his voice, "Hahaha! Roger, does BBQ mind having one more person?"

Below, Roger stood up.

The long sword at his waist was drawn instantly, and as black and red lightning leaped up, a powerful flying slash surged upwards, tearing through the air!

The sky seemed to have been split in two.

"Oh, so possessive of your food? It's just a piece of grilled meat, it can't be that serious, can it?"

Roya casually patted the air, and the domineering aura surging from his hand propelled him to the side.

He dodged Roger's attack perfectly, then flipped in mid-air and stepped on the air.

With a muffled thud, a gust of wind swept out from beneath his feet, the impact of the fall was completely neutralized, and Roya landed lightly on a nearby rock pillar.

Yeah, he looked really cool when he first appeared.

I originally wanted to imitate Kaido's freefall and crash to the ground.

With my current physical strength, this is a piece of cake; at most, my hairstyle might get a little messy.

However, it's not very aesthetically pleasing.

A handsome young man like myself should dress more stylishly.

"It's been a year since we last met, and I was thinking we should catch up properly."

Luo Ya and Roger exchanged a glance, and he said with a sigh, "Why did they start fighting right away?"

"Roya..."

Roger didn't rush to attack. Instead, he grabbed a piece of roasted meat that was perfectly cooked and smelled delicious, and without caring that it was still piping hot, he took a big bite.

This kid's strength is definitely extraordinary, so we need to fill our stomachs first.

While gnawing on his meat, Roger spoke indifferently, "What kind of world do you want to turn into before you're satisfied?"

"Oh?"

Luo Ya raised an eyebrow.

Isn't that too cold?
Is this the attitude one should have when old friends reunite?
Roger's emotions were immediately revealed as his vision shifted from black to white.

Very angry.

And the anger was directed at him.

Did you see something in this sea area?

That's interesting.

So, was I the one who angered Roger?
"Really, Roger, has this terminal illness made you senile?"

Roya smiled with great interest and said, "Didn't I already say that two years ago when we met on Fishman Island?"

"What I crave is freedom!"

The boy raised his right hand and slowly clenched it, as if he were holding the entire world in his palm. "Break free from the shackles of the World Government, so that everyone will be free from all constraints! Everyone can have true freedom!"

"True freedom?"

Roger almost burst out laughing. His face was flushed from eating meat, but that didn't stop the sarcasm in his tone. "Roya, is your so-called freedom just letting pirates ravage this sea, even forcing the countries in this sea to fight each other to pay your heavy taxes?"

"I told you, everyone can have true freedom!"

Luo Ya didn't care at all, and just smiled and replied, "Of course I'm free too. I'm free to do whatever I want, and no order or rule can bind me!"

"If anyone feels that I am hindering their freedom, then let them stop me."

At this point, Roya's expression became somewhat ambiguous, "For example, Roger, isn't this what you came here for?"

"Could it be that you, as a pirate, are here to carry out justice against me because you think I'm guilty of heinous crimes? Don't be ridiculous. Aren't you just here out of anger and because of your own desire for freedom?"

Roger was slightly taken aback.

Then he nodded slightly. "You're right, Roya. It's simply because your freedom makes me very uncomfortable. Your freedom is hindering the freedom I want to see!"

"No need for further words, draw your sword."

In the time it took to say a few words, Roger had gnawed the meat out of his hand, leaving only a bone.

He casually tossed the bone aside, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and black and red lightning crackled and leaped from the sword in Roger's hand.

There is no need to say more.

Although Roya is a madman, he is indeed a madman with a firm belief far beyond that of ordinary people!

Words can't change anything; for a guy like this, only a knife can change him!

"Wouldn't you like to aid digestion?"

Luo Ya pointed to Roger's slightly protruding belly and said with a smile, "Doing strenuous exercise immediately after a meal is not good for your health."

"Cut the nonsense!"

The rock pillar beneath his feet shattered instantly, and Roger's body stretched into a black line. It seemed as if his feet had only just stepped onto the rock pillar and exerted force, but the knife in his hand was already inches away from Roja.

"Then let's get started!"

Luo Ya burst into laughter.

He was actually even more impatient than Roger!
Without the slightest carelessness, black fur instantly covered its entire body, and its broad wings spread out from its back.

At his waist, his beloved Tiger Soul sword was instantly drawn, and the black and red aura swirling around the blade suddenly became as thick as billowing smoke!
boom!
Two supreme grade swords clashed from a distance—

In that instant, the air twisted and hissed, and a black and red singularity exploded between the blades.

Immediately afterwards, countless violent black and red lightning bolts burst forth from that point, tearing the heavens and earth apart like living things.

A bolt of black lightning swept across the rock pillar, causing it to crumble and break; it crashed into the earth, instantly splitting the ground into a deep abyss; it blasted into the clouds, turning the sky upside down in an instant, leaving no clouds for thousands of miles!

And this was merely a clash of domineering forces.

The real destruction only arrived now, as the shockwave spread.

The rock pillars below were crushed into dust like withered grass, entire tracts of forest were uprooted, the earth cracked, the islands trembled violently, and even the sea retreated, exposing the barren seabed!

Just because of the first clash between the two men, the entire island was already on the verge of destruction!
Higher in the sky, the floating island, tens of thousands of meters above the ground, suddenly trembled, with violent winds rising from below, accompanied by a few powerful bolts of lightning shooting up into the sky.

“It’s already started!”

Teach couldn't help but exclaim, "Are you kidding me! That's ridiculous! We're at least ten kilometers away from that island below!"

"The distance isn't enough!"

Dylan raised his voice, "Keep rising! Stay even further away! Otherwise, you'll still get caught in the blast!"

Although it was merely the aftermath of the confrontation, it was already deadly enough for this island floating in the sky.

Because this is a clash between the world's top monsters!

As the floating island rose, the battle on Victory Island below was just beginning.

The initial collision sent both of them flying backward.

Roger landed heavily, his eyes serious.

A true master only needs one clash to understand their opponent.

This kid has become much stronger than he did a year ago!
That's why we must defeat him here!
The ground beneath his feet shattered once more, and Roger shot out like a cannonball.

"Come on, Roger!" Almost simultaneously, Roja took flight. "For you, I'm going to give it my all!"

On Roya's forehead, lines spread across the pair of sharp, sky-pointing horns.

Boom!

The sky suddenly darkened, and thick, dark clouds, like splashes of ink, swallowed the entire island into darkness.

However, the next moment, the world was illuminated again in an even more terrifying way!

It's so brightly lit!

Countless bolts of lightning poured down like a torrential downpour! Blinding flashes of electricity tore through the sky, instantly engulfing everything and turning the world into a violent inferno of lightning.

Roger's eyes reflected the raging lightning, and he swung Ace's sword with a roar that even drowned out the thunderous explosion: "God's Evasion!"

How could a mere thunderbolt stop an attack that even the gods would have to retreat from?
The black and red slashes surged forth with overwhelming force, tearing through the sea of ​​lightning and carving out a path through the void.

But before he could catch his breath, the storm had arrived!

A massive tornado suddenly erupted and instantly engulfed him.

The wind gusts tore at the dark clouds overhead, swallowing up the vast sea of ​​clouds. Then, countless bolts of lightning leaped wildly in the vortex!
Thunderstorm, it's forming!

But this is not the end.

The thunder had not yet subsided when the flames rose again!
In an instant, the tornado transformed into a colossal pillar of thunder and fire that stretched from the sky to the earth. The storm roared, lightning bolts danced wildly, flames surged, and the aura of destruction swept over every inch of space.

"It's not over yet—!"

Roya swung his left hand violently, his voice booming like thunder, "Try this one too!"

The earth roared in fury!

Beneath the tornado, the ground cracked, and the volcano, with a crater diameter exceeding 100 meters, erupted violently!

Volcanic ash, carrying billions of tons of molten lava, surged into the sky with the force of a collapsing mountain, as if to pierce through the storm and the sky itself.

At the very top of the sky, a meteorite with a diameter of over 500 meters had already formed, carrying the power to destroy the world, slowly rotating, and then... crashing down!
In the blink of an eye, the island faced the crisis of destruction.

However, in the next instant, the massive slash tore through the raging storm of lightning and fire, and then extended downwards, tearing apart the gushing volcanic ash and lava.

A dark figure shot out, and the moment it hit the ground, it sprang up like a flea, heading straight for Roya.

"Hahaha! I knew I couldn't do anything to you! Come on!"

Roya laughed loudly, flapped his wings and took flight. Lightning, flames, gales, and lava swirled around the blade in his hand, complemented by a black and red aura formed by the fusion of blood energy and domineering aura.

"Reincarnation!"

"Wild Soul!"

Two monsters collided in the sky!
But at the very moment of impact, Roger suddenly shifted his body to the side, as if he had foreseen Roja's attack, and then slashed Roja hard with his sword.

He saw Roya's future.

But Roya could not see his future.

Is it a kill-by-sight technique?
However, this move is never invincible!

The gale rose again, but this time it did not engulf Roger. The violent wind, which was almost like sharp blades, rose out of nowhere, leaving Roger no room to dodge.

Then, move his body slightly.

Roger's face darkened.

Unable to dodge Roya's attack, then there's only one option—

boom!
The two blades clashed violently once again.

Thunder roared, flames surged, winds raged, and lava splattered everywhere!
Roya's attack was a thunderstorm, a fire, a tornado, and even a volcanic eruption!
Its power is astonishing.

But Roger still managed to block it, and it wasn't particularly difficult.

The two sides are very evenly matched in strength.

Two figures shot out to either side at the same time.

In the direction Roger flew back, the massive meteorite was just about to hit the ground.

"bring it on!"

Luo Ya didn't even bother to steady himself; his left hand suddenly grabbed at the meteorite.
"Earth Explosion Sky Star!"

Boom!

The massive meteorite immediately collapsed at an astonishing speed.

Just as Roger regained his footing, the falling meteorite had shrunk into a black sphere.

The powerful gravitational pull immediately began to wreak havoc.

The ground below crumbled, and large chunks of rock shot into the sky.

Even the air was drawn in, forming a gale that rushed toward the black sphere.

Roger, who had not yet landed, was also captured by gravity. No matter how powerful his Haki was, he could not escape the laws of nature!
Roger was pulled towards the black ball.

Can even manipulate gravity?

This guy!

Roger stopped dodging and stepped on a rock that had been drawn up to him, launching himself directly at the culprit-like black ball.

Destroy that thing—

"Ok?"

Roger suddenly paused.

Light!
An incredibly intense light burst forth above the black sphere!
It was a tiny point of light that appeared out of thin air.

However, Roger sensed the presence of death in it.

"You came over here yourself, Roger!"

Roya's lips curled up in a smile.

It takes time to condense that point of light out of thin air, so we need to use Earth Explosion Star to block Roger's movement first.

And then there it is.

"Art is an explosion."

Roya raised his left hand in front of his chest in a sword-like gesture. "Drink!"

Almost simultaneously, Roger, his pupils constricted, gripped his sword with both hands and swung it with all his might.

boom! ! !
A devastating burst of light suddenly expanded, instantly engulfing nearly a third of the island.

A colossal sphere of light stood on the sea, like a blazing sun breaking free from the abyss, descending upon the world with a pure yet violent will.

Everything touched by its light—mountains, coastlines, forests—vanished into nothingness.

It's not a collapse, not a melting, but a complete erasure of existence.

In an instant, the sea was evaporated, creating a huge, deep, and suffocating hole, from which not even a wisp of steam could escape, as if the space itself had been completely hollowed out.

But the waves of destruction have only just begun.

The shockwave that followed transformed into a tangible wall of destruction, crushing the rest of the world with sheer force.

The remaining two-thirds of the island's wailing was drowned out by a tremendous roar, as if it had been crushed by the hand of a god, turning into thousands of fragments that flew and then dissipated in the gale.

In the blink of an eye, Winner's Island, which was not large to begin with, was gone.

The sea roared in agony, pushed back by an indescribable force, and receded violently. The exposed seabed was torn apart by continuous violent tremors, crisscrossed with ravines, like the shattered face of a dying planet.

"call--"

Roya himself was also blown far away by the violent shockwave.

He was breathing slowly.

An explosion of this scale would be a considerable burden even for him.

Fortunately, the world had already changed more than a year ago!
The thin black mist in the air was immediately drawn towards him by Roya's breathing.

Although it's diluted, the effect is still quite significant, and my physical strength recovers pretty quickly.

“I have also taken away your place of refuge,”

Roja gazed at the enormous ball of light that was rapidly disappearing, a smirk playing on his lips. "Now how are you going to fight me, Roger!"

Now you can properly practice the "Seeing and Hearing Killing" technique!
Roya took flight.

Meanwhile, the tide began to recede.

The devastating tsunami surged back.

In the center of that huge depression on the seabed, a man dressed entirely in black raised his head.

"It's not over yet!!"
