The Legendary Family of One Piece

Chapter 241 just appeared too early!

In the port of the Kingdom of Iren!

The Hibernator easily carried the ancient giant Oz the Younger, after all, the Hibernator Dragon Soaring was quite large.

Just as everything was ready, Charlotte and Barrett were about to board the Hibernian Longtwist.

A terrifying slash of sand from the distant sea broke through the surface and hurtled straight toward Heberfeller Wanlilongteng.

Barrett's expression shifted slightly, and the next second he appeared in front of the massive attack, his coat rustling as he threw a punch.

"boom!!!"

With a deafening roar, the terrifying force was immense, instantly shattering swathes of sand, the impact sending it crashing in all directions.

"Boom!!!"

The shockwave sent plumes of water flying from the sea, and the harbor floor was riddled with holes. The sturdy Hibernian Longteng only emitted dull thuds like the impact of clashing iron.

Barrett withdrew his attack and gracefully landed back on the deck.

Charlotte was somewhat surprised; the sand attack looked familiar. It seemed that guy had entered a new world.

A moment later, a large ship appeared in front of the port.

Standing at the bow of the ship was a man with crossed legs, a large cigar in his mouth, slicked-back hair, a horizontal scar on his face, an earring in his right ear, and wearing a coat.

His head was tilted slightly upward, and he had a cool and confident look on his face.

Crocodile!!!

King of the Desert!

Sand crocodile!

Logia-type Devil Fruit user, Sand-Sand Fruit user.

Charlotte was somewhat surprised; she really did see a familiar face.

However, he is now a rapidly rising newcomer in the new world.

"The Demon Swordsman—Hippefeller Charlotte!"

Crocodile, with a cigar in his mouth, spoke with an indescribable confidence and arrogance, then suddenly his tone turned serious, revealing a slight white tooth!

"Fight me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp sand slash shot out from the sky, heading straight for Charlotte.

Charlotte stood still, silently watching the attack, without moving an inch. Crocodile was as young and impetuous as she remembered.

"Hmph! This newbie is overestimating himself!"

Barrett leaped up and unleashed another terrifying punch, shattering Crocodile's attack head-on.

The scattered sand immediately gathered together and returned to his body.

Barrett calmly clasped his hands together, shook his neck, and made a "crackling" sound, looking disdainful.

"You think you're all that? Let's see what you're capable of!"

Crocodile's expression darkened, and the cigar he was biting twitched slightly.

His arm quickly transformed into surging sand blades, and he raised his hand to launch an attack.

"The Desert Sword!"

The terrifyingly fast-moving sand formed incredibly sharp slashes, tearing through the air to create a sand blade that pierced the sky.

Barrett simply shook his head, his movements swift as lightning.

With Armament Haki covering one leg, he delivered a powerful kick.

"Thump!"

It collided with the desert blade instantly, and after a brief stalemate, Barrett kicked it away, sending it spiraling into the sky like a sandstorm.

Charlotte watched silently, and as fate would have it, the two finally met and began fighting once again.

The next second, Crocodile's sand-transformed body suddenly appeared in front of Barrett, and a long stream of sand shot out from his single arm.

"Crescent-shaped dunes!"

Barrett lowered his gaze slightly, and Armament Haki instantly covered his body.

"Pfft!"

With a soft sound, the crescent-shaped sand blade passed through his body, but Barrett felt no pain. He only felt his body water rapidly draining away, but this had little impact on his terrifying physique.

Crocodile's expression changed slightly; his technique, which could evaporate all moisture, had failed.

"How terrifying!"

Barrett gave a low growl, and the next second, a terrifying power surged forth as his hand reached out to grab Crocodile.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, Crocodile's body was instantly pierced through, leaving a horrible hole.

Crocodile instantly struck someone, and countless grains of sand surged around the large hole in his body, instantly returning it to its original state.

"A Logia-type Devil Fruit user with the Sand-Sand Fruit ability? This is troublesome!"

Barrett grinned, realizing he should have used Armament Haki just now; he had been a bit careless.

It's clear that he doesn't take Crocodile seriously at all.

Crocodile's eyes turned cold, and a small, swirling sandstorm immediately appeared on his hand!

"Sandstorm!"

The moment he waved his hand, the sandstorm erupted into a fierce gale, instantly amplifying and sweeping towards Barrett.

"snort!"

Barrett's entire body was covered in Armament Haki, and a terrifying sandstorm completely enveloped him.

The endless, high-speed spinning sand grains pounded against Barrett's body like sharp knives.

Layers of sand overlapped, obscuring visibility, and their terrifying destructive force produced a screeching sound.

"A trivial skill!"

A muffled sound rang out, and a pair of scarlet eyes emerged from the sandstorm, like a terrifying beast.

A terrifying aura rose within him as Barrett repeatedly threw punches, the thunderous roar echoing through the sky.

"Bang!"

A terrifying sound rang out, and the sandstorm whirlwind, as if struck by a raging flood, was instantly shattered and dissipated.

"Frenzied Tiger Fist!"

The moment Barrett appeared, he pounced like a tiger, his fists whistling through the air with a deafening roar, as he charged menacingly toward Crocodile.

Crocodile's expression changed drastically at first, and he instantly leaped into the air, spreading his arms wide.

"Desert Prison!"

Endless sandstorms fell from his arms like flowing water, with a loud splash.

The raging sandstorm swept towards Barrett from all directions, and everything it touched dried up and became as withered as dry branches.

Absolutely terrifying!

However, against Barrett's ferocious Armament Haki, the effect was greatly reduced, and the terrifying momentum unleashed by his fist was unstoppable.

The tiger roared to the sky, instantly piercing through the desert prison and heading towards Crocodile.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Crocodile's body, enhanced by Armament Haki, was unable to turn into sand and was sent flying by the hammer.

His gaze was icy cold, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He paused only for a moment.

"You dare challenge our king?! Kid, you're overestimating yourself!"

Crocodile remained unfazed by Barrett's taunts. He hadn't been in the New World long enough, so it was normal for him to suffer some losses at the hands of those who were powerful figures in the New World.

He was not discouraged at all and maintained his confidence from beginning to end.

"Barrett? You're nothing special either, that's all!"

Barrett wasn't angry. In the past, he might have been furious, but things were different now.

Charlotte, who had been watching the battle, looked at Crocodile with admiration in her eyes. He was indeed no ordinary opponent!

They just appeared too early!

It can be confidently said that Barrett's current strength definitely surpasses Crocodile's, because he has been constantly fighting.

Barrett's current strength far surpasses that of his counterpart in the original timeline.
