An unexpected incident brought the battlefield to a brief standstill once again.

"Boss Lox!!!"

"Captain Rocks!!!"

Wang Zhi, who was tied down on the battlefield, couldn't help but be shocked.

A look of disbelief.

Newgate and Silver Axe both wore expressions of utter disbelief.

They all turned their solemn gazes to the huge crater behind Kazan.

Rocks...

That invincible Captain Rocks!

Is it really going to fail?

"You can't be kidding me! Rocks got knocked down again?"

"Is the ocean's last gasp the end, and is it truly headed for defeat? Or will a new miracle occur? Either way, the hope seems slim!"

In the God Valley battlefield, almost everyone is waiting for the outcome.

Because Rocks' performance today was simply too powerful!

It can be said to be in a class of its own!

He not only fought against numerous powerful opponents, but also repeatedly rose from the ashes during attacks, even unleashing a burst of power that completely reversed the course of the battle.

That kind of people!

But he conquered Newgate and his crew, and even 15 pirates, and turned them into the overlords of the seas using only force!

There are just too many legendary stories about Rocks!

Everyone felt that this era should be named 'Rocks'!

but now.

It seems that Rocks has reached his limit!

"I never imagined the Rocks Pirates would be wiped out!"

"I watched him build a tall building, and then I watched it collapse! He was completely suppressed!"

"As expected, with those five mysterious old men taking action, plus the terrifying combat power of the Marine Headquarters, even Rocks' strength was useless. No one could withstand such a fierce attack!"

"The Roger Pirates are a disgrace to pirates, actually siding with the Navy!"

"Have we lost? There's no way to turn the tide..."

Just when everyone was wondering.

Lox swayed as he stood up.

His body was once again covered in bruises.

And it was even more serious than before, with bruises, knife wounds, and even a bent arm!

Such injuries.

Even the powerful regenerative abilities of mythical beasts cannot restore it!

The darkness of the Dark-Dark Fruit is almost extinguished.

If he used it even once more, Rocks felt he would die from exhaustion.

"This is impossible......"

"Why......"

Why do I feel this way?!

Lockes felt no more pain in his body. Although he still had some mobility, his body felt like it had been abandoned. It no longer had that explosive vitality, and he felt empty, as if he had lost the most important thing.

"Impossible!! This world belongs to me!!!"

"I am the one chosen by fate!!!"

"puff--!"

Lox felt his body churning violently, and he coughed up mouthfuls of blood.

He froze completely!

His features became increasingly ferocious. Just now, he discovered that there were many unknown combat forces in this world, and all of them were targeting him!

"Hey, Kazan, are you going to keep watching this show?"

"If I fail! Then all that's left is your Flying Pirates!!!"

Locus staggered a few steps toward Kazan.

At this moment, he no longer possessed the arrogance he once had.

Kazan placed one hand on the First Generation Kitetsu: "The Flying Pirates are never afraid of being targeted. Rocks, you should accept your defeat."

"From the moment you ate that fruit, your fate of failure was sealed!"

It's important to understand that Kazan's situation is completely different from Lox's.

He was not worried at all that he would be put in a passive position after Rocks died.

First, there's the Roger Pirates.

They joined the battle because they had a grudge against Rocks. Once they've taken their revenge, given the Roger Pirates' personality, they won't stay in God Valley and cooperate with the Navy.

Non-cooperation means being the enemy of the navy.

Roger most likely escaped in the chaos, so he naturally had no intention of targeting the Flying Pirates!

Second.

The power of the Mary Geoise faction!

With the Five Elders' hearts as hostage, the swordsman Five Elders will try every means to redistribute his power in order to curry favor with Kazan.

If he dares to target the Flying Pirates, his heart will be crushed by Kazan.

Therefore.

Mary Geoise's power is already in an awkward position in God Valley, so it's not worth worrying about!

Furthermore.

Rocks Pirates?

Once Captain Rocks dies, the entire pirate crew will scatter like birds and beasts. Do you think they'll still target the Flying Pirates? These pirates probably see the Flying Pirates as their saviors!

As for the strength of the Navy Headquarters?

They've already been almost completely wiped out by Rocks!

Kazan wouldn't care at all about this crippled force.

"Lox, haven't you noticed? Your heartbeat, the sound of the drums of liberation, has become muffled and disordered, the rhythm completely chaotic!"

"The Nika you've been searching for is robbing you of your life force!"

Thinking about how Luffy repeatedly overdraws his life force...

Kazan now sees Lox looking lifeless again.

A judgment was made.

This 'Nika form' can 'kill'!

The logic is simple: if a person with an ability is not recognized by Nika, Nika will use methods that deplete the ability user's life force, causing them to die from exhaustion.

This could even be a way to escape Mary Geoise's capture.

And this time, it's God Valley!

Lox was essentially Nika's chosen 'escape route'!

After Rocks dies, the Gum-Gum Fruit will be reborn in this world!

Until he awaits his true master!

Dong dong ang, dong dong qiang—!

Upon hearing this, Lockes was instantly shocked, and his heart pounded even harder.

Yes!

At the moment of Nika's awakening, Rocks himself unleashed boundless power, which propelled him forward, allowing him to experience what true invincibility meant.

Rocks even felt that there was no one in the world who could rival him!

But after that wave of frantic heartbeats...

Rocks gradually felt powerless.

in other words--

The previous rage was achieved by overdrawing one's life force!
