One Piece: The user of the Nen-Nen Fruit, who overturned the sea.

Tezzolo immediately stood up, followed closely by Savi.

"Boss, I'll go with you!"

"I'm going too!"

Roy shook his head and refused.

"No, this time I'm going alone, which gives me more mobility."

"After I leave, Barrett will temporarily take command. No one is allowed to leave this island. Focus on your training. I will maintain contact using Den Den Mushi."

Barrett, though somewhat reluctant, nodded. "Understood. Which base are you going to attack?"

Roy gazed at the dark sea, his mind flashing through the charts of the Grand Line.

"The G-6 branch isn't too far from here, and it has a considerable number of troops stationed there, giving it significant influence. Let's start by taking them out."

Roy's voice was calm, yet carried a chilling decisiveness.

"Destroying a naval branch base should be enough to keep the Navy Headquarters busy for a while."

"If they don't withdraw their Water Seven people, I wouldn't mind visiting the G-1 or G-3 branches again."

He turned around and looked at his companions.

"While I am away, everyone should follow Barrett's instructions and make the most of their time to train."

Once the new ship is built, we'll enter the new world; that's where our true stage will be!

As soon as he finished speaking, Roy no longer hesitated. A powerful mental force enveloped his entire body, and his figure slowly floated into the air.

"Wait for my news."

Whoosh-!

In the darkness, Roy's figure transformed into a blurry golden streak, piercing through the thin mist on the sea.

They sped off towards the G-6 naval branch and soon disappeared from sight.

night sky.

Roy pushed his mental power to its limit, his figure moving like a shooting star.

A powerful gust of air left a long white trail behind him.

His gaze was coldly fixed on one direction—the G-6 Naval Branch.

Observation Haki spread forward like an invisible radar, sensing all the movements in the vast sea ahead.

After his mental strength surged, this kind of precise perception over a wide range consumed almost no of his energy.

"Navy... World Government..."

A cold glint flashed in Roy's eyes.

"Since you refuse to behave, then let's communicate in a language you understand—destruction!"

Roy didn't consider himself a bloodthirsty person, but he knew all too well that in this dog-eat-dog world,

Appropriate deterrence and a sharp counterattack are the best ways to protect oneself and one's partners.

Destroying a naval branch is enough to send a clear message to Navy Headquarters:

You can't afford the price of tracking down the Roy Pirates!

Hours later, on the eve of dawn, at the G-6 Naval Branch.

This base, located at a crucial point on the Grand Line, was still shrouded in night.

Only the lighthouse's beam swept regularly across the sea, and the sporadic footsteps of the patrol echoed within the base.

Suddenly, on the highest watchtower of the base,

The sentry rubbed his sleepy eyes and stared wide-eyed at a point of light that appeared on the distant horizon.

Almost in the blink of an eye,

The point of light was expanding at an astonishing speed, turning into a golden figure with a trail of flames, hovering above the main gate of the base!

"Enemy... Enemy attack!!!"

The sentry hurriedly sounded the alarm.

Woo-woo-woo!

The piercing alarm instantly resounded throughout the entire base!

The dormitory lights came on one after another, and the naval soldiers frantically grabbed their weapons and rushed out of the rooms.

G6 Branch, Base Commander

A vice admiral with gray hair but still a robust physique.

At that moment, he was wearing a coat of justice and quickly walked onto the command platform, picking up binoculars and looking into the sky.

When he saw the figure floating in the air, with long golden hair dancing wildly in the sea breeze, his pupils suddenly contracted.

"It's...it's 'Heavenly Path' Roy!!"

"High alert! All turrets, aim! Notify headquarters immediately!!"

The entire G-6 branch instantly erupted in excitement!

Countless searchlights were shone into the sky, artillery was adjusted, and officers shouted themselves hoarse as they directed the troops to deploy.

However, Roy, who was suspended in the air, simply raised his right hand slowly.

"...Disappear."

With his indifferent words, an indescribable, terrifying gravity, centered on him, crashed down like an invisible mountain!

"Gravity Domain - 100x Suppression!"

Om-!

The air was humming under the strain!

All the buildings in the base below, whether sturdy concrete fortresses or wooden structures, creaked and groaned in an instant!

Rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!

The load-bearing structure collapsed instantly!

The watchtower snapped in half, and the gun emplacements were twisted and deformed.

Along with the naval soldiers above, they were pressed firmly to the ground, the sounds of bones cracking and screams drowned out by the deafening sound of the collapse!

The base commander, a lieutenant general, roared and unleashed a powerful burst of Armament Haki, attempting to resist the overwhelming gravity.

But the command platform beneath his feet continued to crack and sink! He watched helplessly as the base he had built up over many years turned into a sinking ruin in just a few seconds!

This was not an attack, but pure, crushing...destruction!

Roy hovered at the center of the vortex of destruction, his clothes fluttering, his eyes unwavering.

Focusing its attention on several key facilities—ammunition depots, communication towers, shipyards…

With a flick of his finger, his telekinetic power, like a precise hand, instantly shattered these facilities!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions rang out in the ruins, flames shot into the sky, illuminating Roy's cold face and the hellish scene below.

They didn't stop, or even go to see the navy struggling in the ruins.

The objective has been achieved.

His mental energy enveloped his entire body once more, and a golden streak of light pierced the sky as dawn approached.

Disappeared into the distance.

Only the completely destroyed and paralyzed G-6 branch remained.

And some of the naval soldiers who survived Roy's gravity.

The news spread like wildfire, reaching Marineford, the headquarters of the Marines, at top speed.

The atmosphere in Marshal Kong's office was very heavy. The high-ranking officers, including Sengoku, Zefa, and Staff Officer Tsuru, who had just recovered from their injuries, were all gathered together.

An urgent battle report was slammed onto the table.

"The G-6 branch... is almost completely destroyed!"

Steelbone Kong's voice was filled with barely suppressed anger.

"More than 90% of the building collapsed; the ammunition depot, shipyard, and communication facilities were all destroyed."

Casualties... The number of casualties is still being tallied, but preliminary estimates suggest it has exceeded five hundred!

"And the enemy... is only 'Heavenly Path' Roy!"

The office was deathly silent.

Sengoku slammed his fist into the wall, and several cracks instantly appeared in the hard wall.

"That bastard!!"

"He must be retaliating against our navy!!"

Staff Officer He frowned. She didn't believe that a cunning guy like Roy would do something so thankless.

"Roy must have ulterior motives!"

"They probably wanted to draw our attention to him."

Crane took out a map from the side and slowly moved her finger across it, finally stopping at the location of Water Seven.

"Water City?"

Zhan Guo frowned, then seemed to realize something.

"Roy and his crew obtained Adam Wood in the Sabaody Archipelago!"

"They want to build ships in Water Seven!?"

"It should be."

Staff Officer Crane rubbed his temples and looked at Steel Bones Sky Crane Sengoku.

"A few days ago, the CP department reported that several CP members were missing."

Our search forces are also converging on Water Seven.

Staff Officer He's tone was heavy:

"This is a show of force against us, a warning!"

"If we don't withdraw our investigative forces from Water Seven, his next target might be another branch base."

Cyborg rubbed his temples in frustration; Roy's abilities were indeed infuriating him.

"Any progress on the investigation in Water Seven?"

A general in charge of intelligence immediately reported:

"No shipyards have been found yet, and new ships are being built using Adam wood."

(This is also Roy's way of having Tom appear to be doing normal construction work, in order to mislead people.)
