Pirate: I'm cracked, but my mutation talent is incredibly strong.

Shiki the Golden Lion unleashed most of his techniques on Wang Zhi, showcasing his strength and talent to the world.

He's now almost as strong as the "Pirate Godfather"!

Within two years, he will definitely surpass Wang Zhi and become a legendary pirate that even Wang Zhi will have to look up to!

"Hahaha!! That's great!"

"You can have this whetstone from now on!"

Shiki the Golden Lion had already shattered the two ordinary longswords in his hands. Only when he was no longer armed with two swords did he finally step back, satisfied.

Although Newgate was not keen on participating in this gauntlet battle, since it was a stepping stone prepared by Fang Huo for everyone.

He'll reluctantly give it a try!

We cannot waste Fang Huo's good intentions.

As Shiki the Golden Lion flew away, Newgate the Whitebeard, carrying the Supreme Grade Sword Murakumogiri, jumped off the Sword of Gybeck and slashed at Wang Zhi.

When Wang Zhi saw Newgate's naginata, which was swung in a large arc, he knew just how terrifying the monster's power was.

This is even more terrifying than Charlotte Linlin before.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

"You bastards have no sense of morality!!"

Wang Zhi's defenses were completely breached, but he had no choice but to grit his teeth and unleash his full fighting power, throwing a punch at the opponent.

"boom!!!"

In an instant, the shockwave from the clash of fists and blades spread violently in all directions, and countless pirates watching the battle were swept away by the raging wind.

A magnitude 10 earthquake struck the entire island of Paradise, leaving ravines and gullies all over the island.

All the pirates were terrified by this attack and ran away in a panic.

What kind of monster is this?!

"Woo-ha~"

Wang Zhi was beaten so badly that he coughed up a mouthful of blood. His pupils trembled as he was shocked by Newgate's strength and tremor ability!

Why is this newcomer so strong!

"Master Wang Zhi was sent flying! He was so badly beaten he vomited blood!"

"Newgate the Whitebeard is amazing!!"

Countless elite pirates were screaming wildly, as if they had witnessed some unbelievable scene.

"Is this Newgate's true power?!"

Seeing that Newgate had made Wang Zhi vomit blood with a single move, both Silver Axe and Golden Lion were filled with shock.

Silver Axe Fierce, in particular, has grown increasingly eager for powerful Devil Fruit abilities!

He was convinced that it was the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's power that made Newgate so strong.

"Captain Rocks! I surrender! I'm truly surrendered! I unconditionally join the Rocks Pirates!"

Wang Zhi no longer dared to dream of becoming the second-in-command of the Rocks Pirates, nor did he want to become the vice-captain.

Otherwise, before Fang Huo, the vice-captain, could even make a move, he would have been killed by Whitebeard Newgate, the number three!

"Boring!"

Whitebeard had no interest in enemies who had lost their will to fight; he made only one move before choosing to stop and rejoin his team.

But he conquered countless pirates with a single move, instantly becoming an idol for a large number of pirates.

It shattered the island with a single move; that's incredible power!

"Hahaha! Fang Huo, what do you think?"

Looking at Wang Zhi, who was begging for mercy in a sorry state, Locke grinned and looked at Fang Huo.

He now looks down on this so-called pirate cult leader.

In fact, when Fang Huo was testing Black Flag Black, Rocks had already discovered the pirate he wanted to recruit.

It's unclear what Fang Huo has discovered through his probing.

I really hope Black Flag Black is okay.

Otherwise, after killing Wang Zhi, they would have to kill Black Flag Black as well.

"What do you think? It's either him or me!"

Fang Huo, flying on his sword, soared to the front and above Wang Zhi with divine grace, looking down at this somewhat sleazy and cunning pirate patriarch.

"Vice Captain Fang Huo, I surrender. I want to join the Rocks Pirates. From now on, we'll be partners."

Wang Zhi stuck out his long tongue and revealed a fawning smile, but in his heart he wished he could kill these Lockes cadres.

He originally agreed to cooperate with the World Government not only to save his life from Rocks' Game, but also to find an opportunity to take over everything in the Rocks Pirates.

But now, the constant barrage of attacks from these officials makes him want to kill every bastard who steps in his face.

"I would like to borrow some things from Captain Wang Zhi. I hope Captain Wang Zhi will agree!"

Fang Huo smiled as he looked at the disheveled Wang Zhi. It was already quite remarkable that Wang Zhi, who had endured a series of attacks, could still stand here.

After all, Newgate, Skeeter, and Linlin were all monsters and geniuses of their time.

Even though they are young, they are already very powerful.

Talent is something that can allow geniuses to grow to heights that are difficult for ordinary people to reach, even without effort.

A tiger becomes king in a few years, while a tortoise becomes a turtle in decades!

"Fang Huo, take whatever you want. From now on, the things belonging to the Wang Zhi Pirates will belong to the Rocks Pirates."

Wang Zhi adopted a very humble attitude, disguising himself as a non-venomous vegetable snake.

"I want Captain Wang Zhi dead!"

Fang Huo waved his right hand, and the Seven Star Demon Sword beneath his feet flew into his hand.

In an instant, the Seven Star Demon Sword's green light intensified, and the crescent moon mark on Fang Huo's forehead burst forth with a ghostly blue-white light.

"What?!"

Wang Zhi was shocked. He had already humbled himself so much, so why did the Rocks Pirates still want to kill him?!

"Nine Heavens Lock - Crescent Moon Sky Piercing the Sky!"

A gravitational field, as heavy as Mount Tai, pressed down on Wang Zhi, as if a myriad of heavenly locks were binding him, causing his body to suddenly stiffen.

The highly penetrating blue-green crescent sword energy, carrying a terrifying aura of sharpness, slashed towards Wang Zhi, whose smile had frozen.

"No!!!"

Wang Zhi screamed in terror. If it weren't for those bastards taking turns attacking him, or if he hadn't been severely injured by Newgate in one move, he wouldn't have been afraid of Fang Huo, that brat.

Driven by the fear of death, Wang Zhi frantically unleashed his Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, breaking free from Fang Huo's gravity suppression and parrying the terrifying slash!

"boom!"

Wang Zhi parried with difficulty, and a deep, gruesome wound appeared on his dark, armor-colored arms, revealing the bone.

Fang Huo instantly transformed into a blood shadow and appeared behind Wang Zhi.

The long, narrow Seven Star Demon Sword pierced Wang Zhi's heart!

"The Great Demon Lord killed the Pope!!!"

The pirates of Wang Zhi's crew went completely mad. They never expected that Fang Huo would actually kill Wang Zhi!

Isn't the Rocks Pirates recruiting strong individuals?

"Why! Why!!"

Still suppressed by the gravitational field, Wang Zhi's dark hands gripped the sharp blade that had appeared on his chest, his eyes filled with anger and fear, and his mouth was full of blood!

"No reason why! I just want to eat you!"

Fang Huo licked his lips, revealing sharp teeth, and a swarm of blood-shadow bats flew out from his body, engulfing Wang Zhi.

Countless blood-shadow bats frantically tore at Wang Zhi, devouring his blood!

"No!"

"Rocks!"

"I can be your dog! Stop your people now!"

Wang Zhi was terrified as he watched helplessly as the blood-shadow bats devoured him alive.

Black Flag Black, who was watching, felt a chill instantly fill his heart when he saw these blood-shadow bats.

This looks a bit like the Blood Shadow who just ambushed me.

"Hahahaha!! You still say you're not the Great Demon Lord!! You're a demon!!"

When Shiki the Golden Lion saw Fang Huo cruelly devour Wang Zhi, he burst into unrestrained laughter.

It seems that Fang Huo, the prophet, is not as kind as one might imagine.

The principles and bottom lines aren't that high either.

That would greatly increase my chances of recruiting Fang Huo.
