Chapter 92 A fist crashes into the sea like a meteorite!
"Sharp Tongue" Sora, ranked in the top ten of the seeded players, is considered the ace of the "Holy Land Guardian Legion" in this competition.
"Naval Supernova" Roy was already attracting much attention, and he became even more famous for his performance in the first two trials.
Most people would imagine that the battle between the two should be a spectacular and intense fight.
But in fact, that is not the case.
""
'
At this moment, the audience outside the venue stared wide-eyed at the scene faithfully relayed by the live Den Den Mushi.
On the battlefield.
As an eyewitness present at the scene, "White Wing Knight" Hasmode was completely speechless.
Right in front of him, where Sora had originally stood, was now just a huge ravine.
The ravine stretched into the distance—and along it, one could see the forest that had been pierced through it.
The trees and trunks along the ravine, along with the boulders on the ground below, were all easily crushed.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, the swamp beneath Hasmode, which had been binding him, gradually began to return to its original state, indicating that Sora's Reversal Fruit had lost its effect.
"What...what kind of power!?"
"He took down Sora with just one punch..."
Hasmode swallowed hard. "And, at such close range, you didn't even hurt me... What incredibly precise control of your power?"
He looked at the figure not far away, and for a moment felt that the sunlight shining through made the figure appear incredibly tall.
"Still a little short, but... we've got the hang of it."
At this moment, Roy clenched his fist, his brain, enhanced by the Human-Human Fruit, rapidly assessing his punch.
However, he didn't dwell on it too much and quickly turned his gaze to Hasmode.
As he said before—besides the fact that Sora's words were truly disgusting, the more important reason he attacked Sora was...
"Hasmodem."
He walked up to Hasmode, who was still in a daze, and snapped his fingers with a smile: "You heard what I just said, didn't you?"
"Ha...ha...you saved me, I will repay you—ask me if you have any questions."
Hasmode nodded, panting heavily.
And he had indeed heard what Roy said—that the other person seemed to have some questions for him.
"I'm curious about the 'Aerospace Guard attack' incident you just mentioned."
Roy didn't try to hide anything.
"Could you tell me about the attacker's appearance and abilities?"
"6
'
Upon hearing this question, Hasmode almost instinctively gritted his teeth—that day had been a nightmare for him for the past three years.
Of course he remembered what that person looked like.
"He was a guy with very long earlobes, shirtless, and had four drums on his back."
"He must also be a Sky Island person, because he calls the Four Seas 'Blue Sea,' and claims to be from the White Sea."
.
Hasmode said in a deep voice, "That's the name the Sky Islanders use to refer to the ground."
"Besides that, that guy's ability is a Logia-type Devil Fruit... he has the power to control lightning!"
Upon hearing this, Roy was immediately certain.
"No mistake, it's Enel."
He silently uttered the name in his heart.
Enel is the master of the "Sky Island Kingdom of Gods" in the original story, a man who calls himself a god.
He was a brutal and ruthless man who had personally destroyed his homeland, another sky island called Bika.
But that's not the key point. The most important thing is that Yiluoyi knows very well that there is an ancient city called Shandora in the Kingdom of Gods.
This city is made of gold; it is a true city of gold.
For Roy, its significance is self-evident.
But Roy never went to the Sky Island.
The reason is simple—because Enel's ability is very special.
He is the user of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, one of the top Logia-type Devil Fruits, possessing the power to control thunder and transform it into lightning.
Furthermore, due to the unique nature of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, he can use and maintain a special Observation Haki Mind Net for an extended period of time, the range of which can cover the entire Sky Island.
Anyone who lands on the island will be immediately targeted by him.
With this ability, he can launch lightning strikes beyond visual range, with maximum power capable of destroying an entire sky island. When needed, he can also transform into lightning and appear anywhere on the sky island at any time.
This means that at that time, it would have been almost impossible for Roy to sneak into the Sky Island without being seen by the other party. As long as he went to Shandora, he would inevitably be attacked by lightning strikes beyond his line of sight.
So for a long time after Roy came to this world, although he coveted the Sky Island, he did not try to obtain it.
The situation only changed slightly a few months ago after we obtained sliced fruit.
The appearance of his four clones—the Rooster, the Dragon, the Pig, and the Rat—and the subsequent massive enhancements convinced him that he was now capable of defeating Enel.
Therefore, he had already begun planning for the Sky Island project.
However, due to Enel's own abilities, he had to ensure a one-hit kill. Otherwise, given Enel's love for gold, he might use his abilities to destroy the entire Sky Island along with Shandora, knowing he was no match for Shandora, with the mentality of "if I can't have it, I'll destroy it."
With Enel's abilities, even Roy would have a hard time stopping him.
Therefore, Roy has been trying to make a meticulous plan.
But now he finds that these plans seem to be futile.
because...
"Enel attacked the Space Guard three years ago and was captured, and was eventually taken away by the World Government?"
Roy frowned.
This was the first time since he came into this world that the plot had changed so drastically from what he originally knew.
Three years ago, it should have been exactly the time when Enel destroyed Birka and went to the Kingdom of God.
But now he learns that Enel did not go to the Kingdom of Gods, and even his whereabouts are uncertain.
Why did this change occur?
Roy didn't know.
But there's no doubt he cares about it.
So he quickly asked Hasmode a few more questions, and then learned an even stranger piece of news from Hasmode.
"That guy was carrying a very old box with some incomprehensible patterns on it. When he arrived at the top of the Western Paradise, he asked us to offer him all the gold and materials so he could use the contents of the box to build his own ark."
""
At this point, Hasmode's expression turned even uglier—in fact, it was precisely because of this absurd demand that the Space Guard went to war with the other side.
Upon hearing this, Roy's brows furrowed even more.
"Gold... gold won't be the key."
He thought to himself—Enel himself was obsessed with gold, and even used gold as jewelry.
The real key is...
"ark."
These two words reminded Roy of something else Enel possessed in the original work.
"The Ark's Maxims"
A very special ship powered by Enel's Rumble-Rumble Fruit.
That ship was built by Enel in the "Kingdom of Gods". It is the only ship in the entire pirate world that can fly freely. It can generate thunderclouds and control lightning. The most ridiculous thing is that it can even fly to the moon.
In addition, there are special ships similar to the "Ark Proverb" on ancient murals on the moon and on ancient murals of the giants.
"Yeah, now that I think about it, that ship is clearly illogical—even with the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, it doesn't make sense to create something like that, does it?"
Combining this with Hasmode's words at that moment, Roy had a guess in his mind.
The box that Enel carried when he attacked the Western Summit might contain the "true core" of the Ark Manifesto—the reason why that ship is so special, even capable of serving as a spaceship.
Of course, for Roy...
What he cared about wasn't the core of the "Ark Maxims," but rather...
"Why didn't Enel stay in the Land of Gods? How is Shandora in the Golden City?"
This is the issue he cares about most.
"No, we need to send the clones up immediately to check on Shandora's condition..."
'
But just as Roy was pondering this...
"laugh!"
A massive slash suddenly came from the forest.
The surrounding giant trees snapped at waist height in an instant, the cuts as smooth as a mirror.
Roy: "?"
He didn't have time to think anymore. Golden waves rippled around his body, and with a push of his hands, he blasted the slash away!
Hasmode, on the other hand, was not so lucky—he had originally wanted to ask Roy if he knew anything, but at this moment he was directly blasted away by the shock wave brought by the slash and disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, Roy had no time to pay attention to the White-Winged Knight.
He simply looked in the direction from which the slash came.
"Feel sorry."
At that moment, a graceful figure in a pink military uniform emerged from the forest.
Amidst the flying wood chips, the famous sword "Konpira," already imbued with Armament Haki, was in his hand—that was the sword of Vice Admiral Gion, Momousagi.
At this moment, the lieutenant general's appearance also explains the reason for her title.
"bake!"
Dark, fiery clouds surrounded her slender body, and two long rabbit ears stood up on her head. Her body was covered in fine fur, and her legs had been transformed into the reversed legs of a rabbit.
That posture, however, was clearly...
[Rabbit Fruit - Snow Rabbit Form - Fruit Awakening]
"Awakening of a Zoan-type Devil Fruit..."
Roy was somewhat taken aback: "No wonder he's a potential general."
While he was muttering to himself...
"I was chasing that contestant named Guernica just now, and he seemed to have deliberately led me here... My apologies for the attack just now, as it was not directed at you."
Gion said this to Roy.
"I see..."
Roy nodded, thinking to himself, "No wonder."
Zephyr had also mentioned to Roy the personality of this Gion Vice Admiral—she was definitely not the kind of person who would ambush someone from behind.
"but..."
Just then, Gion raised the Kinpira sword in her hand, its blade flashing coldly: "That guy named Guernica is strong, but he keeps dodging and is unwilling to fight."
"I participated in this martial arts competition to find enough strong opponents to hone my swordsmanship, Roy. You are also very strong."
She said this with a radiant smile and a burning fighting spirit.
"Shall we play a round?"
Roy:
'
'
By the way, it seems that Teacher Zephyr did indeed say that this person, although seemingly gentle and elegant, is actually obsessed with swordsmanship.
"Guernica..."
Roy gritted his teeth and said, "That's despicable."
And just as Roy was muttering this to himself...
The top of a giant tree in the forest.
"Did you successfully attract attention?"
Wearing a white suit and a top hat, Guernica crossed her arms.
His pale face, which resembled a mask, remained expressionless.
Luring Gion to fight Roy, thereby shaking off that dangerous general candidate—such behavior is actually quite beneath the dignity of a powerhouse of his caliber.
But Guernica didn't care.
He is a CPO agent who only carries out orders.
His orders for participating in the military exercises were to strive for a higher ranking to save face for the government.
"These two should be among the strongest in this competition. After they decide their winner, I should be able to... um?"
But just as Guernica was pondering this, he seemed to sense something and suddenly looked in a certain direction beyond the island.
For the first time, a look of surprise appeared on that white, mask-like face.
And not just him.
"*2
At this moment, Gion, who was already preparing to make a move below, also paused, her gaze also turning in that direction.
And so is Roy, who already possesses the fruit and whose five senses are extremely sharp.
They could all feel the immense, overwhelming sense of oppression and crisis sweeping through the entire forest.
Most importantly, at this moment, Roy's expression was tense, but his eyes were full of disbelief.
Because this atmosphere and sense of oppression were not unfamiliar to him at all.
At the same time.
On the edge of the island, aboard the warship bearing the insignia "Special Science Class (SSG)" that Roy had noticed earlier.
A tall figure emerged from inside the warship's cabin.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
Even the steel deck of a warship would dent when he stepped on it.
"Please be careful—this is only the first test of the shredder, so please don't mess around with it."
"Yes, yes, you need some time to adjust, and your body itself also..."
Beside him, two members of the science class, dressed in white lab coats, were chatting away.
"You two are so noisy!"
At that moment, the man standing between the two was shouting in a low voice.
"I know my own body best!"
He looked up at the countdown above the island: "That kid Roy must be getting impatient by now."
As he spoke, Roy was very familiar with his tone.
Yes, with purple hair, a strong body, and dark skin, the one appearing on the deck of the warship at this moment is none other than "Black Wrist" Zephyr.
But the difference is.
At this moment, Zephaniah's right arm, which had been severed and was now completely empty, was now resting on it.
But it has been replaced by a huge, terrifying-looking metal arm.
That was the Seastone Arm specially made for him by the Naval Science Unit, and its name was—a Crusher.
"Click!"
At that moment, Zephyr clenched his fist: "It's been a long time since I've felt this way. Since that's the case..."
He grinned, and his smile suddenly seemed somewhat violent!
"Just like you said—let's hit one blow first, get used to it!"
The words fell.
Zefa's body leaped into the air.
"boom!"
That tall, strong body instantly soared into the sky above the entire Martial Arts Island, spinning downwards.
"Click!" "Click!" "Click!"
The machine's massive right arm suddenly rose, and terrifying cherry blossoms instantly covered it.
He roared, his voice and the clang of his fists echoing through the forest!
"Blackbody Flow Secret Technique: Meteor Collapse!"
A punch is thrown.
The next moment...
"boom!"
It was as if a meteorite had crashed into the sea!
