One Piece: Lord of Calamity

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Fruit and Blade! Slaughtering Celestial Dragons!



Saturn looked at the large beauty before him, a flicker of regret in his eyes.

If Mother Caramel hadn't mysteriously disappeared, this woman would now be a member of the World Government, she would be the strongest shield protecting the Celestial Dragons.

But soon, his peripheral vision caught sight of the simple-looking boy struggling to get up.

"A Buccaneer brat? How pathetic. Flowing with sinful blood, you are only allowed to be a slave or die. This is dictated by history."

"Uncle, are you very noble?"

The boy, with a bloody head, looked bewildered. "But, being noble or lowly from birth, that's strange..."

"Shouldn't truly powerful people, like Nika, go and save others?"

"Therefore,"

Saturn calmly stared at him, "You will vanish from history. Now, you too shall die."

But, just then.

"Aunt Linlin, he's completely ignoring you, isn't he? He doesn't even have you in his eyes!"

Roa stoked the flames.

If Charlotte Linlin turned and ran, there was no way he could lay claim to those treasures.

"Mamamama!"

Linlin reached for her head, pulling down her bicorne hat, and a large blade was now in her hand. "Will cutting down a Five Elder be different from cutting a regular person?"

"Elbaf's Lance: Hakoku!"

The air was instantly pierced, and a massive sword energy shockwave roared towards Saturn.

The man who wielded the world's highest authority remained calm. "You, of course, will also die."

Whoosh!

The sword wave instantly engulfed him.

"Huh? What does that mean?"

Big Mom was a little surprised.

He didn't dodge, nor did he defend. Could this guy also be invulnerable, like herself?

"Be proud of it, ants. A god will personally deliver judgment upon you."

Amidst the indifferent voice, a colossal monster rose.

Pitch-black flame clouds transformed into flowing ribbons, a pair of huge bull horns, like Roa's, grew from his head, and his lower body had transformed into a giant spider.

"This is!!"

Charlotte Linlin's pupils constricted.

The left side of the monster's body had a huge hole from the previous attack, but the flesh on this hole was rapidly regenerating.

In a few breaths, all the injuries had fully healed.

"A mythical Zoan, like little Roa?"

The woman instinctively categorized Saturn's regeneration ability as his Devil Fruit power. "Interesting. This old hag wants to see how many times you can regenerate!"

She lunged forward with her blade.

"Go, Aunt Linlin! I won't hold you back!"

Roa flapped his wings, flying down from his aunt's shoulder, cheering her on while flying directly towards the treasures.

Leaving aside everything else, the remaining Devil Fruit shouldn't be weak, right? After all, it was placed alongside the Azure Dragon Fruit and the Paw-Paw Fruit.

"You brat!"

Charlotte Linlin was furious. This brat truly had the spirit of the Rocks Pirates.

But now, she had no time to deal with Roa!

The spider's massive legs thrust directly towards her.

"Zeus!"

"Yes, Mama!"

The thundercloud Zeus floating beside her transformed into a dark cloud, and then a bolt of lightning roared like a long dragon, striking directly at Saturn, who neither dodged nor defended.

Then, Linlin instantly surged forward, swinging her blade backhand and directly cleaving off Saturn's head.

But before she could rejoice, the spider legs had already stabbed again.

"Are you kidding? This recovery power!"

While parrying, Charlotte Linlin's smile instantly vanished.

"Do you understand now? How can an ant resist a god?"

Saturn glared at her.

Charlotte Linlin immediately grunted, her head snapping back, hit by an invisible attack.

This was the Ox-Demon's Demonic Eye!

"So painful! You scoundrel!"

A furious aura surged, and Aunt Linlin, with a faint scar on her forehead, roared. The Demonic Eye, capable of easily pulverizing human bodies, only managed this much against her invulnerable form.

Charlotte Linlin raised her hand and grabbed the sun floating beside her. "Prometheus! Heavenly Fire!"

A huge fireball immediately shattered Saturn's body once again.

"Beautiful, Aunt Linlin!"

Meanwhile, without looking up, Roa, while cheering, had already picked up that Devil Fruit.

It was silver, gleaming with a metallic luster, with many drop-like protrusions on its surface, covered in spiral patterns.

A Devil Fruit he had never seen before.

But it shouldn't be bad.

Carefully tucking the fruit into his embrace, Roa immediately noticed a blade placed nearby.

A black scabbard and hilt, with purple hilt-wrap. Placed so conspicuously, it must also be a good item. He casually tucked it into his back waistband like Sasuke.

There didn't seem to be anything else valuable left. A tall pile of glittering treasures, tempting as they were, couldn't be carried away.

Symbolically stuffing a few large gems into his pocket, Roa finally looked up at the monsters' battle.

One might say it was a match of equals.

Charlotte Linlin wielded her Haki-infused large blade, repeatedly cleaving Saturn apart.

But Saturn's immortality was utterly unreasonable, regenerating again and again, then fiercely counterattacking.

Roa noticed that Saturn had looked at him several times but hadn't taken any action.

Isn't that just completely disregarding me?

He's certain that even if I take the treasures, I won't be able to escape, right?

That year, at seven years old, during the God Valley Incident, standing there like a mere minion.

At this moment, Roa tearfully vowed, everyone must see him!

Thirty years east, thirty years west, do not mock a young man in poverty!

"Aunt Linlin seems to be having a lot of fun!"

Roa nodded seriously. "Then I'd better not disturb her!"

Time to bail!

Treasures in hand, no need to linger.

Who knows what will happen next.

But.

"Oh! Linlin! It seems you've run into quite the formidable opponent! Do you need our help?"

A grinning voice came.

Charlotte Linlin, Saturn, and Roa all turned their heads simultaneously.

Silver Axe carrying his giant axe, the smiling Wang Zhi(Ochoku), the drunken Captain John, and Gloriosa standing on a snake—the Rocks Pirates' executives had arrived!

Behind them, some other pirate captains followed, a vast throng of people.

"Perfect timing,"

Linlin grinned, her smile full of malice. "The treasure is right here. If we take care of this Five Elder together, we can split the treasure!"

"Five Elder?"

Silver Axe glanced at Saturn. "Heh heh, Linlin, I don't think he can do anything to you!"

"Keep up the fight, Linlin! We'll go distribute the treasures first!"

Without any hesitation, Wang Zhi(Ochoku) already lunged directly towards the treasures.

Not a whit slower were his executives.

"You bastards!"

Big Mom stomped her foot in anger.

This was bad.

Saturn frowned. That brat was irrelevant, but so many Rocks Pirates executives...

Since that's the case.

"I shall begin the summoning."

He chanted inwardly.

Boom!!

Four massive magic circles erupted behind him, spewing thick black smoke, and black lightning crackled.

Roa's pupils constricted.

Run! The Five Elders are all here!

Immortality plus summoning ability, that's just unfair!

Without hesitation, he entered beast form, his dual wings vibrating behind him, and Roa shot into the sky, flying straight towards Dylan's direction.

"Did that brat Roa change his ways?"

Silver Axe looked up at Roa's hurried fleeing figure, somewhat surprised. "So much treasure, he doesn't want it?"

That brat already took the most valuable stuff!

Charlotte Linlin sneered inwardly but said nothing.

Little Roa only temporarily took the treasures. After he returns, Auntie can keep them for him.

This news shouldn't be revealed to too many people.

Roa went full speed, even summoning gales behind him to accelerate, streaking across the sky like a meteor.

However, just as he was traveling at top speed.

Clatter, clatter, clatter, clatter!

Several light sounds came from his body.

Hm?

On the ground below, Celestial Dragons who had come to seek refuge were gathered, a sea of white.

Among the noisy Celestial Dragons, a few gathered together, raising their guns and continuously firing at the "big bird" approaching in the sky.

"Hey, hey, hey, bullying children now!"

Roa's eyes carefully observed below.

Hmm, the Holy Knights and accompanying CP0 must have all gone to engage the attacking pirates.

"Then I guess I have to act in self-defense! Burning at the stake!"

Although he had researched many interesting techniques just now, the situation was urgent, so no time for picking.

Roa suddenly lowered his altitude, sweeping over the Celestial Dragons like a heavy bomber.

The moment he flew past, the Celestial Dragons below, starting from the direction he came from, each burst into fierce flames!

It wasn't just simple burning; a violent conflagration was occurring on each Celestial Dragon!

In just the blink of an eye, the white expanse had transformed into surging flames, with tongues of fire licking dozens of meters high.

Screams rose and fell.

Roa breathed heavily.

Using his ability at such high intensity, his stamina consumption was too severe; he almost fell straight down.

But thankfully, the high-purity black mist emitted by the Celestial Dragons revitalized Roa after just a few breaths.

"Thanks for the meal. Now then,"

After a final glance at the sea of fire below, Roa flapped his wings contentedly and soared higher again. "Gotta go!"

Meanwhile.

Not long after Roa fled, thick black lightning sparked from the four magic circles, and four distorted shadows emerged from the center of the magic circles. In a few breaths, these distorted shadows had transformed into four colossal beings.

"What?"

Charlotte Linlin was aghast. "What's going on?"

"Could it be,"

Wang Zhi(Ochoku) also had sweat on his forehead. "The Five Elders are all here?"

Besides the Ox-Demon Saturn, the other four were also ferocious and terrifying monsters.

A huge wild boar with tusks like sharp blades, a colossal skeletal horse, a grotesque bird that was a mix of snake and bird soaring with flapping wings, and a giant sand worm as massive as a mountain!

Gloriosa couldn't help but swallow. "Should we... retreat?"

Saturn spoke calmly, "Four people here are enough. Mars, you pursue that brat. He fled to the east. The Mercury Fruit and Sea of Blood were stolen by him."

"Alright."

The mythical bird Itsumade flapped its wings, and the next moment, it was already giving chase in the direction Roa had fled.

After flying for a short while, the mythical bird discovered a sea of fire below.

"Where did this fire come from?"

He was somewhat surprised.

Never mind, the priority now is to pursue that brat from the Rocks Pirates.

Flapping its wings, the mythical bird increased its speed again.

However, as it swept over the island, the mythical bird also noticed a problem.

Where did the Celestial Dragons go?

They're nowhere to be seen.

Was the evacuation point chosen that well to be hidden?

Our family also had young people participating in this hunt.

Just as he was pondering, a shadow appeared in the sky ahead.

Caught up!

"Hm?"

Roa heard a thunder-like roar from behind.

He instinctively looked back, then was utterly terrified.

The mythical bird was only a few hundred meters away from him!

Holy cow!

"I don't have any cough syrup!"
