Rocks Band: I have 48 Imperial Arms.

group

It was truly, undeniably shattered!

Under your feet!

The land they stood on had witnessed countless epic battles, and Whitebeard's all-out attack was clearly the final straw that broke the camel's back.

With the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's power unleashed to its fullest extent, Whitebeard, guided by Locke, directly unleashed two hundred percent of his power. The terrifying fruit power exploded and shattered on Murakumogiri.

world!

The world before our eyes!

It was covered with a dense spider web, like a mirror that had been hammered.

Power through!

It tore towards Lox.

The cascading power shattered the core of the earth's veins beneath their feet. The Valley of the Gods, which had been nourished with countless treasures and poured with countless efforts, could not withstand the power raging within it and was abruptly destroyed.

Cracked!

split!

"320"

Rumbling--

Sand and gravel cascaded down, boulders slid down, and huge cracks spread along the ground, as if an ugly wound had been torn open by human hands. Below was an endless expanse of darkness, like a gaping maw ready to devour anyone who dared to approach.

Shocked!

Shocked!

Yellowish, murky sewage gushed out, resembling a small fountain, but it sent chills down the spines of the group.

Seawater seeps into the ground through cracks.

This undoubtedly illustrates that the land beneath our feet has been eroded by seawater down to the outer crust and surface.

in other words!

The island! It's about to sink! It's sinking into this endless ocean!

Under Locke's control.

His initial move in opening Pandora's box eventually led to this devastating scene through repeated influences.

thorough!

Completely, it tore this Valley of the Gods apart!

Just as Locke was pondering what to do next.

"what!!!"

puff-

A piercing wail suddenly resounded through the sky, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

The voice was shrill, but not exactly shrill; it had a soft quality, but it was definitely not a woman's voice.

but……

The wailing, which abruptly stopped, was no longer gentle at all; the voices were broken.

"It's Qingyuan!"

"That guy is dead!?"

"Hiss... Another admiral is going to die..."

"Today is truly the Navy's doomsday..."

"Captain Rocks...I never expected him...thankfully we didn't..."

The Navy Headquarters' three top combat forces!

A royal-level being, a Logia-type user of the Wind-Wind Fruit!

Qingyuan is dead!

He's undoubtedly dead!

And... his death was rather hasty.

By Locke.

On the verge of death, Rocks unleashed a desperate burst of power, tearing his body in two, making him utterly dead.

Although Rocks experienced a brief resurgence of energy after this, he ultimately returned to the underworld.

But Qingyuan, who was torn apart by him before his death, obviously had no chance of being resurrected. She was completely dead, her heart was broken into eight pieces, and even if the healing fruit appeared, it would be impossible for her to be resurrected.

'If you don't court death, you won't die!'

'Who told him to see the captain critically wounded and dying, and then recklessly run over to try and kill him...'

Not only did the Rocks Pirates look down on them, but the Navy and the World Government also harbored resentment in their hearts.

'There's no rush to avenge the commander-in-chief right now!'

Even if you can't resist, you have to be careful. Seastone particles are everywhere. If you dare to rely on your elemental transformation to fight Rocks head-on, that's like lighting a lamp in a toilet—asking for trouble.

The remaining high-ranking officials were extremely distressed.

A naval admiral, who is at least a commander-level fighter, was wiped out in the blink of an eye?!

The brutality beneath the Rocks Jedi.

It instantly reminded everyone of the fear of being dominated by him in the past. The 'King of the World' who shrouded the sea in his ambitions even made the navy bow down and retreat.

And yet, Locke actually managed to blow out one of its eyes?!

Compared to Qingyuan, her record was even more embarrassing.

Locke is simply—

Horror!

'That guy...'

'He's practically the next Rocks!'

The same thought suddenly arose in the minds of the naval high command, giving them a jolt.

And Locke, whom they feared so much?

"Fortunately."

"Luckily, I was far enough away."

Locke suddenly felt a toothache, and a faint sense of relief washed over him.

otherwise.

The one who will personally experience tearing apart Japanese soldiers with bare hands might have to be someone else, not Qingyuan. Although Locke doesn't think that with his monstrous physique, he would end up dying in the same pathetic way as Qingyuan.

"Hahahaha..."

"I never imagined! My life would end like this... The king who coveted the sea... died in the canyon... Is this the resistance of conquest... the resistance of this vast ocean..."

Rocks's life force had weakened to an extreme degree...

His eyes were half-closed, and the filthy blood had stained his eyelids, leaving him with no strength to even open them.

The once arrogant, strange laughter had now turned into an almost inaudible murmur.

His lips twitched slightly.

It was his final echo to the world.

Suppressing the last ounce of his strength, he looked at Locke: "Devour...so greedy that you have the ambition to devour the world..."

"bring it on!"

"Let me see... whether the great things I failed to accomplish... can be achieved in your hands!"

Having been destined to die, Rocks, who had let go of everything, unexpectedly regained his former domineering and ruthless demeanor. Despite being terribly wronged by Rocks, there was no trace of venomous resentment in his eyes.

On the contrary, I feel relieved!

The ruthless hero closes his eyes in relief!

Dreams aren't just passed down among friends, but also among enemies. From the moment Rock dared to throw a punch at him, Rocks knew all too well that the next person to overthrow the World Government would be none other than Rock!

'A ferocious beast?'

'It should be a ravenous beast... the legendary serpent that was so greedy it devoured the entire world...'

The last thought floated through my mind.

Even as he struggled on, Rocks finally lost his strength and closed his eyes completely.

The domineering aura, as scorching as the sun, vanished instantly, transforming into tiny specks smaller than fireflies, merging into the endless ocean.

Locus, who harbored ambitions to conquer the world, finally left his era.
