(From here on out, I will release 1 extra chapter if I receive 10 new reviews and 100 Power Stones.)
"Blink" was the most frequently used technique by Rowen ever since he became a user of the Goro Goro no Mi (Thunder Thunder Fruit) Ability, without a doubt!
From the initial ambush on Shuzo to killing Mr. 3, all of these events demonstrated the power of 'Blink'. Even now, despite having various powerful moves at his disposal, 'Blink' remained Rowen's most frequently used technique.
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, and after using the same technique thousands of times, even a fool could grasp its essence. So Rowen had been considering whether he could incorporate 'Blink' into his other attacks.
Could he make his normal movement itself into a skill? Rowen achieved this with "Supercharged Travel," which was the result of this line of thinking. However, 'Blink' itself was a process of using his Devil Fruit ability, and during this process, Rowen couldn't use any other techniques.
A person couldn't be divided into two, so he couldn't achieve both destructive power and the ability to use 'Blink' simultaneously.
That's when Rowen came up with the idea of using Thunder Clouds to complement Blink and create rapid slashing attacks. This move, "3000 Thunderclaps·Thunderbolt Fury," involved continuously using 'Blink' in a short period, allowing the slashes to appear almost simultaneously at multiple target points, achieving the effect of "One Chop, Many Kills."
However, in the process of using consecutive 'Blinks', he also had to coordinate his attacks. This technique of multitasking exponentially increased the mental calculation requirements for Rowen's ability. With Rowen's current power, fifty meters was his current limit.
Naturally, fifty meters was more than enough. With the agility and speed of the Thunder-Lightning Human, there were plenty of ways to close the distance between him and his enemy.
Having annihilated most of the Donquixote Family's main executive officers with a single strike, Rowen seemed as if he had done something insignificant as he moved forward along the fragmented ground.
Arriving in front of the closed gate, he bent his fingers and tapped on the door.
Thunk, thunk, thunk!
"Seastone, huh? No wonder they're not afraid of being affected…" Rowen spoke as a familiar weakness seeped through his fingers, causing Rowen to involuntarily take half a step back.
Presumably, the entire room was made of Seastone, perfectly sealed like an iron barrel, without any loopholes. That was why Doflamingo had the confidence to let his executives buy time for his escape.
As long as the gate was closed, he would be absolutely safe in this room!
No matter how strong Rowen was, he couldn't do anything about Seastone.
Even the most powerful Devil Fruit abilities were powerless against Seastone. It was the result of an absolute opposition between the two. No one had ever been able to break free from this bondage.
"Tsk, he didn't really escape, did he?" Thinking of the brief glimpse of the submarine earlier, coupled with the small submarines accompanying the War Behemoth, Rowen had a foreboding feeling in his heart.
…
Meanwhile, in the Underground port, inside the Executive Tower.
Through the images captured by the surveillance Den Den Mushi from outside, Dellinger and the other two hid in a sealed room, their expressions filled with fear as they watched the towering figure.
Just one move!
The confident executives of the Donquixote Family crumbled like a house of cards!
The level of power displayed by Rowen truly shattered their understanding of the word "Power." Dellinger, a Fish-Man, had always been confident in his own strength and enjoyed slaughtering weaker opponents. But now… he couldn't even be considered a weakling in front of Rowen because he was utterly useless!
Baby 5 felt down, despite her twisted thoughts, she still had normal emotions. Over the years, she had seen the protection the family had given her, and she considered them her true family.
And now, all those family members were dead.
Ka-cha!
With an assault rifle in hand, Baby 5 cocked it and held a cigarette, exuding a killing aura as she spoke.
"I'll avenge them!"
With those words, she headed toward the direction of the gate.
"Come back!"
Among the three, Lao G, who had been silent all along, shouted angrily, his voice trembling the entire room.
He watched Baby 5 stop in her tracks, her back filled with sorrow. His aged face was filled with pain as he said. "Don't forget the mission Young Lord entrusted us with! Now that Trebol is dead, the only person we can rely on is you, Baby 5!"
If it were in the past, being "Needed" by someone like this would have made Baby 5 blush and twist around, expressing how "happy" she was. But now, Baby 5 seemed as if she hadn't heard anything, her face calm.
After a long while, she took a deep drag of her cigarette, exhaled the burned tip onto the ground, and let out a long sigh.
"I've understood… Prepare yourself, let's begin!"
With that said, Baby 5 returned to a corner of the room and pressed buttons on the control panel. Dellinger was still trembling, and Lao G slapped him, saying, "You stay here with Baby 5. Once she launches the bomb, you will immediately take her and leave through the Underground passage. He will definitely notice your actions, but I'll be responsible for stopping him."
They would go down together…
"Okay…"
…
Buzz! Buzz!
In the quiet and spacious Underground port, a faint sound caught Rowen's attention. The thick iron door of the Executive Tower in the center of the port emitted creaking sounds as it was gradually pushed open with brute force.
Soon, Lao G, dressed in a tight-fitting combat suit with lightning patterns, appeared in the center of the gate. He spread his hands and pushed the iron door to the sides, causing a cloud of dust to rise. His muscles swelled, and he looked like a "MAX-Powered" Master Roshi, even stronger than the Governor!
Rowen knew that this was one of Lao G's secret techniques called "Jio-Ken (Battle Preservation Fist)."
It involved accumulating and preserving the power of one's youth within the body, allowing for the explosive growth of physique and muscles when released. This technique restored both strength and skill to their prime.
Even without considering the power increase brought by various Devil Fruit abilities, Lao G was undoubtedly the strongest member of the Donquixote Family due to this "Jio-Ken (Battle Preservation Fist)"!
"Vice Admiral Rowen! You will face me next!"
In the face of Rowen's cold gaze, Lao G didn't flinch as he approached Rowen.
Although he didn't possess Haoshoku Haki, there was an inexplicable aura of willpower emanating from him, producing an effect comparable to Haoshoku Haki. The ground beneath his feet crumbled, and his aura grew stronger with each movement.
By the time he reached Rowen, his momentum had reached its peak!
