Chapter 73: Setting Off for God Valley
New World, Hachinosu, Harbor.
On the Rocks Pirates' ship, the Sword of Xebec.
Captain Rocks, Vice Captain Rono, along with Whitebeard, Golden Lion, Charlotte Linlin, Silver Axe, and other Division Commanders, all assembled!
Surrounding the Sword of Xebec, excluding the Roger Pirates' Oro Jackson, were thirty pirate ships in total!
With a total force of 35,000 people, all members had arrived!
That's right, all members!
Even young Shakky and that person, Miss Buckingham Stussy, were among these 35,000 people!
There were almost no crew members of the Rocks Pirates left on the island of Hachinosu.
Only some timid pirates who dared not go were expelled from the pirate crew by Rocks and left on Hachinosu.
On the deck, besides Rono, who also served as the Seventh Division Commander, the other six Division Commanders were ready for battle!
After half an year of bitter training, Charlotte Linlin, John, Silver Axe, and Wang Zhi finally broke through that shackle!
They were officially promoted to Admiral-level powerhouses!
Whitebeard and Golden Lion had faintly broken through the line of Admiral-level powerhouses!
Kaido had obtained the Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon in advance, and his strength had also advanced by leaps and bounds, worthy of being the number one person in the Rocks Pirates outside of the Division Commanders!
Plus the Roger Pirates!
Roger, Rayleigh, Gaban, Bullet, and other strong men!
It could be said that the army was strong and the momentum was sky-high!
As for Rono's current strength, even Rono himself wasn't quite sure what level he was at.
After all, for the past three months, Rono had only one opponent—Rocks!
For reference, he could only use Rocks as a benchmark.
With Rocks as the standard of strength, Rono's current strength was roughly in a range—
Below Rocks, almost no opponent!
Opened the system interface.
[Host: Rono]
[Age: 18]
[Strength: (Super Admiral Level)]
[Speed: (Super Admiral Level)]
[Stamina: (Super Admiral Level)]
[Haki: Top-tier Conqueror's Haki, current progress: 80.9%; Top-tier Armament Haki, current progress: 83.7%; Top-tier Observation Haki, current progress: 85.2%]
[Other Abilities: Swordsmanship (Great Swordsman Level), progress: 95.6%; Combat Experience (Top-tier); Axe Technique (Advanced); Conqueror's Coating; Advanced Armament Haki (Ryuo); Observation Haki (Future Sight); Physical Talent "Steel Balloon"]
[Moves: Iron Fist; Wave Slice; Kirin; Marine Rokushiki; Lion's Thousand Cut Valley; Cloud Cutter; Kitetsu · Iaido Ten Forms; Divine Departure; Mountain Severer!]
[Fruit Ability: Flame-Flame Fruit · Absorption]
[God-level Ability: Voice of All Things!]
After three months of "special training" with Captain Rocks, Rono's strength had advanced by leaps and bounds again!
His Strength, Speed, and Stamina had transformed from Admiral Level to Super Admiral Level!
The progress of his three types of Top-tier Haki also broke through to 80%!
Although he hadn't successfully promoted to God Level, compared to the previous speed, it was already a rocket-like improvement!
In the first three months, Rono's own cultivation of the three types of Haki only increased by 5 percentage points.
In the latter three months, after long-term battles with Rocks, the progress of the three types of Haki nearly doubled!
If Rono were given a little more time, he would definitely break through all three types of Haki to the top tier!
But time waits for no one.
And after the progress of the three types of Haki reached 80%, even a big battle with Rocks only increased the progress by 1 or 2 percentage points.
The further you go, the harder it is to improve; this is common sense.
On the Sword of Xebec.
Rocks looked around at the strong men present, a satisfied smile on his face!
With such a lineup, even if those old bastards in Mary Geoise gathered the power of the whole world, they would have the strength to fight!
Even, a chance to win!
"Good! Very good! Before setting off, I hope you understand one principle!"
Rocks began his pre-battle mobilization.
"Do you think those trash Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land Mary Geoise are gods?"
"If not for their ancestors eight hundred years ago, these trash Celestial Dragons would be nothing!"
"Even their ancestors eight hundred years ago were just humans!"
"Now, they have turned into a pile of yellow earth!"
"The reason I'm telling you this is because I hope everyone understands one truth!"
"No one stands on the altar from the beginning!"
"Before becoming gods, gods were just mortals!"
"Now, what we have to do is pull those so-called gods down from their divine positions and sit on them ourselves!"
"After this battle, we will be the new gods of this world!"
Rocks raised his arms and shouted, making the blood of the 35,000 Rocks Pirates members present boil!
"Pull the Celestial Dragons down from their divine positions!"
"Those trash don't deserve to be called gods at all!"
"Great! Kill them! We are the new gods!"
"Hahaha, brothers, follow Captain Rocks and Vice Captain Rono, become gods!"
"God Valley, here we come! Five Elders, Marines, wash your necks and wait!"
The pirates were boiling with excitement. Division Commanders like Golden Lion, Charlotte Linlin, John, and Wang Zhi also showed expectant smiles!
Become gods!
Who wouldn't look forward to it?
They were originally a group of ambitious monsters who gathered together for a chance to get rich!
Now that the opportunity to become gods was placed in front of them, they were naturally moved!
Only a very small number of people present, such as Rono, Whitebeard, and Roger's crew, were not moved by Rocks' pre-battle mobilization.
Rocks didn't care about this either.
At this time, the sky was gloomy and dark, with thunderclouds and rainstorms arriving instantly!
As if heralding the imminent, all-out war capable of changing the direction of the entire world!
"Target: God Valley, set off!"
Seeing the time was about right, Rocks smiled faintly, and the Sword of Xebec set off towards God Valley!
