"..."
Makima vanished.
Roar!
The moment she disappeared, Barrett, as if freed from all constraints, lunged fiercely at Roger like a wild beast.
Roger could never have imagined that Makima would have foreseen all precautions and released Barrett in advance.
Barrett's strength is very high.
Roger blocked Barrett's fist with his sword. His fist was black, pure black, as if it had generated black flames due to overwhelmingly powerful Haki.
The immense power was released unreservedly at this moment, even Roger was somewhat taken by surprise.
"The Strength-Strength Fruit?!"
Roger's body was blasted away instantly. The large rock beneath his feet shattered, and Roger's feet scraped across the sea surface, leaving a long trail above.
From the fist Barrett had just launched, he had already figured out Barrett's power abilities.
Haki, Aatrox's Darkin modification, and...
Paramecia-type Strength-Strength Fruit!
As the name suggests, the Strength-Strength Fruit is a fruit that allows the person who eats it to obtain the purest and simplest strength. It has no fancy abilities, only enhancing the user's physical strength!
The Paramecia-type Strength-Strength Fruit, combined with Barrett's Darkin-modified body and extraordinary Haki, resulted in an extremely astonishing power at this moment, even able to repel Roger.
Roger's heart sank. At this moment, he understood Makima's intention.
Even if he could defeat Barrett, it would not be an easy task, and doing so would undoubtedly worsen his already terrible health.
"Damn... I originally wanted to try to use my life to test whether I could kill Makima."
Roger's face was grim. He knew that he had failed at this point.
But...
It's alright.
At least he learned Makima's identity and her plan, at least he learned more of the truth of the world. Makima thought he was about to die, but she didn't know that he had already linked his mind with Ann.
Everything he knew at this moment, Ann naturally knew as well!
At this moment, in an office in Marine Headquarters, Ann sat uneasily in her seat. Due to pressure, her right leg shook uncontrollably. Her right hand kept turning the pen, and sweat even flowed from her forehead.
It was so shocking, so shocking!
Even she and Roger had only guessed that Makima's identity might be a demon lord, but they hadn't expected that Makima's goal was to do such a thing, and now that it had reached this point...
It was impossible to stop her!
All of Makima's plans were on track. Even if she revealed these things, it would not shake her foundation.
Because the Five Elders had no reason to believe her. Ann could not expose her identity as Roger's clone, so she had no reason to tell the Five Elders all of this.
And the most terrifying thing was not just that. Makima is the Control Devil, control, control!
So, what is her control based on?
The Five Elders...
The Five Elders' vigilance against The Black Order has been getting lower and lower, and the Five Elders' attitude towards Makima has also been getting better and better. Is all of this really because of naturally developing trust?
She pondered deeply and even felt a ridiculous and terrifying feeling.
She must not report this matter to the Five Elders, or she would be exposed.
Most importantly, after Roger's death, there was no human in this world who could defeat Makima.
No, Roger himself might not be able to beat Makima!
Exposing it now would only alert the enemy. She...
At least she had to reach a point where she was confident that she could kill Makima. Only when she reached that point would she expose Makima's true face to the world.
At the very least, she had to find someone who could kill Makima after Roger.
She unconsciously tapped her fingers on the table, carefully paying attention to the battle in the East Blue through her connection with Roger.
"...No!"
Ann stood up abruptly and walked out of the office.
She was going to apply to go to the East Blue!
The battle between Roger and Barrett would soon be discovered. She had to go to Loguetown as soon as possible to transfer Roger's wife, Portgas D. Rouge.
This was what she had promised Roger. She would take care of Roger's wife and son.
.........
Boom!
The sea was boiling, the sea was like crazy, thunder roared across the sky, hundreds of miles of sea rumbled, tossing waves rising hundreds of meters high, and water columns soared into the sky as if connected to the dark clouds.
Thunderstorms rained down, and the sea was filled with rumbling light.
It was like the end of the world, like the destruction of the world!
Two figures moved through such a world. Just moving on the sea caused extreme destruction, and the explosions produced when they collided shook the world.
Roar!
This was a battle between a king and a demon. Like a huge monster roaring at this moment, Barrett roared madly, swinging his fists. Roger was also doing everything he could to fight back. He had never felt so happy.
Before fighting Aatrox, before fighting Kozuki Oden, Roger had never fought with his purest heart. But now he was releasing his power to the fullest, because he knew this was his last dance.
If so, let this world remember him!
"God's Fall!"
Roger roared, and the next moment, a huge slash roared out like a training practice, and tremendous power was tangled together forming the ultimate brilliance.
Barrett was swallowed by that force and was blasted into the sea. With a boom, a Haibu hundreds of meters high exploded, and his body sank into the deeper seabed.
But Roger didn't relax his guard. Instead, he slammed down forcefully, because he had seen the future. Soon, the sea formed a whirlpool. Barrett jumped out from the center of the whirlpool, his body covered in blood. But what did these wounds and blood mean to the crazy Barrett?
He only had one purpose: to destroy!
Drown the world in blood!
"Awakened! Amazing power, you've actually reached this level!"
Roger laughed loudly, his blade collided with Barrett's fist from a distance. The Haki of the moment of collision spreads out like a wave.
Roger did not hesitate to praise Barrett "It would be a pity if you were just reduced to a simple killing machine. Wake up! There are too many strong people in this world worth fighting, and too many beautiful things worth exploring. It is too much of a pity that a master like you has always stayed in madness."
Relying on his own crazy will, Barrett suppressed the power of the Devil Fruit, and allowed the Strength-Strength Fruit to reach the point of Awakening.
Once a Paramecia Devil Fruit awakens, it will affect the surrounding things, but the Strength-Strength Fruit is very special. Compared to Paramecia Devil Fruits, it is more like a Zoan Devil Fruit.
Therefore, the changes in Barrett were more about gaining more strength, so that he could fight the current Roger.
That is why Makima was confident in letting Barrett hold Roger to his doom. If Roger wanted to defeat this Barrett, he had to fight with his greatest strength!
"Roar!!"
But how could the crazy Barrett hear Roger's words?
He punched out again, but was suppressed by Roger with even stronger power.
Roger may not be as strong as Barrett in terms of strength, but in terms of Haki, Roger is far above Barrett!
Only with Haki can you be called a king!
"It's a pity that I can't die yet. Since I can't kill Makima, then I have to do something else."
Roger took a deep breath, and after exchanging a few more blows with Barrett, he stopped abruptly.
"I'm sorry, I really hope we have a chance to fight in the future."
Roger held the sword in both hands, and the next moment, the powerful Conqueror's Haki rapidly contracted on the blade.
Black lightning adhered and Roger's pupils dilated and he shouted loudly "Awakening is not your unique skill!"
Paramecia-type Fusion-Fusion Fruit-Awakening!
As Roger's voice fell, the sea surged crazily. Under Roger's power, all the inorganic matter nearby was coming to him.
Fuse with the sea?!
If it were an ordinary Devil Fruit user, they would say he was crazy, but in front of Roger, this was not impossible. He had Devil Cells modifying his body, and the power of the Shikon Jewel, and was not afraid of seawater like ordinary Devil Fruit users.
At this moment, the sea merged crazily into Roger's body, and gathered together with Ace, who had merged into his hands.
Roger's Awakening of the Fusion Fruit was far more powerful than Barrett's Awakening of the Fusion Fruit in the film. Barrett at that time only absorbed iron, because absorbing too many other things would destroy the hardness of the iron.
But Roger was different. Roger accepts everything. Everything in the world is his power!
When the time comes, the world will be of one mind!
In the blink of an eye, Roger's sword had condensed tens of billions of tons of seawater. Theoretically, Roger should now be tens of billions of cubic meters in size, but Roger used his power to compress it and adhere to his Haki.
Black sea water wrapped around Roger's body. As Roger slashed down heavily, it was as if he was smashing someone with a mountain!
Barrett was immediately crushed down, even the user of the Strength-Strength Fruit could not resist Roger's powerful force at this moment. He stubbornly supported Roger's 'Water Sword' with both hands, but he could not prevent himself from falling from the sky.
Roger, like a small mountain, crashed down to the sea surface with Barrett, and then with a boom, sank into the sea, straight to the deepest part of the seabed!
The huge power tore the sea surface crazily, forming huge waves, raging like a tsunami towards the distant world.
And Roger took Barrett straight to the depths of the ocean, even to the bottom of the ocean. With a boom, Roger pressed Barrett to the bottom of the sea.
After that, he unhesitatingly abandoned all the water he had merged, and Ace who had merged into the water.
No, he did not give up the fusion, but he gave up his fusion with them.
Tens of billions of tons of water were almost condensed that sword, and Ace penetrated Barrett's right shoulder, directly pressing him to the seabed.
Coupled with the huge water pressure of the deep sea, Barrett could not escape.
Then, in the deep sea, a layer of black domain appeared. A sword penetrated a man's shoulder in the dark, and stuck in the seabed.
Barrett struggled angrily, but he couldn't escape.
Roger's eyes were filled with endless regrets, but as he said, he knew he couldn't die yet, he must not die!
He still had things to do. If killing Makima was not successful, then at least...
At least...
He had to open up the future of this world!
So, at this moment, he quickly swam upwards, and after not knowing how long, he broke through the surface of the sea.
"I'm sorry Barrett, if you can survive in this seabed relying on your Darkin body, then you will definitely be released by someone, I saw that future."
Roger said softly
His Observation Haki had already reached an unprecedented level. There were only a handful of people in the history of this world who could reach his realm, and there was not one who surpassed him!
In that instant, he even saw the future of more than ten or even dozens of years later!
This also allowed him to see how magnificent that era was!
"What a pity, I couldn't be born in that era, hahahaha!!!"
Roger laughed loudly, the laughter spread in all directions, no one could see that the current Roger was a dying person.
But he was indeed dying. He could sense that when he fought Barrett with all his strength, the disease on his body was recklessly devouring his body. Before, with the doctor's conditioning and the suppression of the Shikon Jewel fragments, he could last a few more months, but now...
Maybe he could live for another month?
But, so what?
His life had been wonderful enough!
Therefore, he laughed loudly and sang loudly, and as if because of his laughter, the gloomy world turned to light.
The rain…
Stopped.
Roger took the sky as a quilt and the sea as a mat, and fell asleep on the sea.
He was too tired.
After Ann arrived near here, she took a long time to find Roger, who was still sleeping on the sea, by following the traces of the ocean currents and Roger's connection.
Ann put her hands in her pockets, stood at the bow, and couldn't help but laugh.
"It's really exaggerated."
Even if she was one with Roger, after coming to this sea area and seeing the doomsday-like scene with her own eyes, she was still shocked.
So strong, this guy is too strong, this man can split the world in half, is this the Pirate King who has reached the end?
Roger had realized his ideal, so what about her? Will she have a day when she reaches the end of the road?
What will it be like when that day comes?
"Have you woken up from your dream? Pirate King?"
She looked at Roger lying on the sea surface. At this moment, he had already opened his eyes.
"How can I wake up?"
Roger's eyes seemed to be looking at the sky.
"I'm going to the far side of dreams."
