One Piece: Lord of Calamity

Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Fierce Battle with the Five Elders! Escape by Sea!



Roa furiously flapped his wings, unleashing the full power of his gale, his speed surpassing all limits. There was no other way; one of the Five Elders, Itsumade, was hot on his heels. What had he done to warrant a Five Elder personally coming after him? There were so many other monsters on the island, weren't there?

Little did he know, even for the Five Elders at the peak of the world, the Mercury Fruit of the Logia type and the Demon Blade Murakumogiri, one of the Supreme Grade Swords, were treasures of immense value. Besides, it was just dealing with a kid, right? A simple matter; how much time could it take?

Flying forward, Roa looked back. No, his speed still wasn't enough; the distance was closing! Why could something so large fly so fast? Was that reasonable? No! He had to think of something. Roa looked towards the distant coastline ahead. He could already see it; if he reached the sea, he could escape! The problem was, how to stall for time along this stretch of road!

Behind him, the monstrous bird opened its beak, and fire flickered deep within its throat. But Roa suddenly turned around.

"You want to breathe fire, do you?!"

Boom!! Flames exploded within the monstrous bird's mouth, surging out and instantly engulfing the bird in a huge fireball.

"Hoo-hoo!" Roa cackled triumphantly, continuing forward without pause. As long as there was any suitable environment, he could freely create disasters!

The fireball exploded the next moment, and the monstrous bird, shrouded in invisible fluctuations, continued its pursuit.

"Advanced Armament Haki?" Roa gritted his teeth tightly. Sure enough, stopping this monster wouldn't be easy.

"Brat!" The monstrous bird no longer breathed flames, but something even more terrifying swept towards him. It was Conqueror's Haki! Much stronger than even Brother Kaido's! This was Conqueror's Haki that possessed physical destructive power. Roa could clearly feel his body trembling.

"Roar!!" Roa roared with all his might. Amidst the earth-shattering tiger roar, the vibrating sound waves mixed with the surging Conqueror's Haki, forming an even more unique fluctuation. If he had to describe it, it was similar to Auntie Linlin's demented screams. The two superimposed, yielding an effect far beyond one plus one.

However, it was still far from being able to contend with Five Elder-level Conqueror's Haki. All Roa managed to do was barely hold on under the monstrous bird's Conqueror's Haki. But that was enough! Itsumade's Conqueror's Haki couldn't affect Roa's flight.

"Conqueror's Haki?" The pursuing Five Elder, Marcus Mars, was also a bit startled. This kid was only seven years old! If he truly escaped, given time, he might become another Rocks!

"Die!" The monstrous bird breathed again, but this time, what came out was an invisible wave! Black lightning constantly flickered around it!

Roa was instantly terrified. A damn Haki shockwave! Regardless of whether it was mixed with Conqueror's Haki, his fur definitely couldn't block it! Subconsciously twisting his body to dodge, the swirling gale further accelerated his propulsion. In a flash, Roa grazed past the shockwave.

"Wah!" The black tiger bared its fangs. "My tail!" Half of his tail was gone.

Roa immediately realized that simply trying to escape would never work. If he allowed this guy to attack and then dodged, he would only be caught! Just like now, with just that moment of dodging, the distance between them had already closed to two or three hundred meters! He had to fight for his life! Proactive offense!

While continuing to flee, Roa breathed heavily. A large amount of black aura, invisible to ordinary people, was drawn towards him, pouring into his body like a huge funnel. Although it couldn't make him instantly much stronger, inhaling a large amount of black aura brought significant changes. For example, his severed tail began to grow back rapidly. Even if it couldn't compare to a Five Elder's immortality, his recovery ability was still exaggerated.

Then.

"Come on! Gale!" The howling gale instantly enveloped the attacking monstrous bird. Wind blades laboriously cut Itsumade's body, and the turbulent airflow immediately reduced its flying speed.

"Lightning!" Dark clouds filled the sky above, and bolts of lightning mercilessly struck down at the monstrous bird.

"Meteor!!" Breaks appeared in the dark clouds, and meteors, each with a diameter exceeding ten meters, rained down.

Roa continuously took deep breaths. If he stopped, the heavy physical burden from overusing his ability would instantly drain him. But as long as he breathed, as long as there was enough black aura to replenish him, his stamina was endless.

"What's with this kid's ability?" The monstrous bird's body had turned pitch black, its immensely powerful Haki resisting the sharp wind blades and turbulent lightning. Marcus Mars's voice was astonished. The Azure Dragon Fruit's ability wasn't this flashy, was it? But the more so, the less he could be allowed to escape!

The monstrous bird displayed agility completely unbefitting its massive size, easily dodging the falling meteors. But at that very moment.

"Volcano!" Roa roared again.

Boom!! The surface of the meteors that grazed past the monstrous bird suddenly exploded, and scorching lava spewed out. Caught off guard, Itsumade was directly hit.

"Ugh!" The impact of the volcanic eruption, combined with the intense heat of the lava, made even a powerful Five Elder like him groan. In that instant, a meteor slammed directly into the monstrous bird's back, its immense force knocking him down.

Roa naturally didn't miss this opportunity and continued to flee at full speed. So close! He was so close to the sea! As long as he could reach that place!

"Hmm?" Roa, who had been constantly watching behind him, suddenly froze. The monstrous bird was no longer in the sky. Had he given up?

Rumble! A roar suddenly came from the shore ahead. Roa instinctively looked over. He saw a huge magic circle had appeared on the coast, with thick smoke wafting upwards. He actually teleported ahead! Despicable!

But, didn't teleportation take time? Heh, well, too bad for you, I win! Roa suddenly lowered his altitude, charging directly towards the magic circle.

"Collapse!" The coast instantly crumbled, and the entire area where the magic circle was located collapsed into a deep pit. As Roa approached the coast, distorted shadows already emerged from within the magic circle.

"Then you're in for a bad time, Five Elder!" Roa laughed loudly. "Do you like taking baths?"

Boom! The part of the deep pit near the sea instantly collapsed, and seawater poured directly in. The moment Mars opened his eyes, he found himself submerged in water. That damned brat! The magic circle immediately broke, and the distorted shadows also vanished without a trace.

"What a shame!" Roa smacked his lips. He almost achieved the feat of solo-killing a Five Elder.

He looked back. Behind him, the monstrous bird flapped its wings and soared into the sky again. But, it was too late.

"Garna, Five Elder!" Roa politely smiled and bid farewell to the old man, then plunged headfirst into the sea without looking back.

Splash! Waves splashed on the surface of the sea. By the time the monstrous bird flapped its wings and pursued, the sea had returned to silence. Where could Roa's figure be found?

"What is this kid doing?" Mars was puzzled. He certainly didn't think Roa had committed suicide. Was someone meeting him? Trouble, the troublesome kid had escaped with troublesome Devil Fruits and weapons.

Deep Underwater

Roa calmly blew bubbles. Strong currents carried him rapidly forward. Since he wasn't a Devil Fruit user, he could swim! Now, he had finally escaped to safety!
