In this world, there were not many people who didn't believe in 'items' that could grant any wishes. Roger was one of them, and it was obvious that Rocks was not that kind of person.
For Rocks, who wanted to become the king of the world, if there was such an item, he would gladly accept it. He would not be an idiot like Roger.
He could check whether this item was real or fake after he took a good look at it!
"Another troublesome guy..."
Toguro and Roger both looked at Rocks. For now, Rocks was the strongest person in the world, stronger than Roger. However, in the world of pirates, if the gap between the two was not big, then it would usually take a long time to fight in a perfect state.
"Roger, give that Jewel of Four Souls to me." Rocks tilted his head and said to Roger.
"If you do, I'll at least spare your crew!"
It could only be said that he was worthy of dreaming to be the king of the world. In terms of ferocious momentum, he was much stronger than Roger. It felt as if a mountain was approaching even though he was just walking towards them.
It was a clash between Roger's Haki, Rocks' Haki and Toguro's Demonic Energy. The collision between the two sides turned into a Mexican Standoff in the blink of an eye. The ground shook several times more violently than before. Now in the God's Valley, the sky rumbled and the earth trembled!
In this collision, Roger was serious at first, but finally squinted and laughed, "I'm sorry about this. I don't have the habit of sharing what I have. I am a pirate. How can a pirate hand over his spoils of war?"
He picked up the box next to him, and then casually flipped it over. He took out all the gold, silver, and jewelry in the box. Countless jewels scattered. This was a wealth that could make ordinary people lose their minds, but none of the three people present cared. Their eyes were focused on a purple bead mixed in the jewelry.
Roger and Rocks had never seen Jewel of Four Souls in the past, but they could tell from a glance that the bead was different from the others. It emitted a faint light, and it drew people over.
Roger slowly lowered his body, and picked up Jewel of Four Souls. He was a little surprised and said, "So it is such a small thing?"
"Let's settle this with pirates way..." Roger looked at Rocks and Toguro, and suddenly threw Jewel of Four Souls up fiercely. He was also well aware that he would become the target of the other two. So, instead of being a prey, he would throw the other two off.
Toguro and Rocks leaped up at the same time. Both of them wanted to seize Jewel of Four Souls for themselves, but that was when Roger swung his blade, and no one wanted to take Color of Supreme King-imbued strike head on. However, Toguro was not a human. He was a demon!
Rocks hesitated because of Roger's attack, but Toguro did not hesitate at all. He forcefully stopped Roger's strike and grabbed Jewel of Four Souls. He landed on the ground before leaping away!
"Don't think about running!" Rocks grinned. His body suddenly turned into darkness, and endless darkness extended to the blade. Dark smoke spread out, and a huge suction force spread into the air. Toguro's pupils dilated as he was pulled down by the gravity.
Dark-Dark Fruit?
Originally, Rocks didn't really make any appearance in One Piece manga. He was simply reflected in Sengoku and Kaido's memories. He was similar to Roger, but it was more mysterious than Roger, because it was stated that Roger was clearly not a Devil Fruit user, while there was no information about Rocks whatsoever.
However, people guessed that Rocks was the previous Dark-Dark Fruit user. Toguro didn't expect that it was true...
And it was different from Blackbeard,
In addition to his powerful ability, Rocks also had an unparalleled swordsmanship. The combination of the Dark-Dark Fruit and swordsmanship made Rocks unparalleled in the current era!
His entire body released darkness and gravity to pull Toguro's body. Moreover, he slashed out with his sword, as if he had cut out a dark night. Toguro's pupils dilated. In the next moment, all the muscles in his body squirmed. He shouted loudly, and his already extremely powerful demonic aura became even more violent!
"100% of the 100%. Only in this way can I really become a demon."
Toguro's body was more than twice as large as before. The muscles even bulged out like tumors behind his shoulders. Facing Rocks' attack, he took a deep breath and then blew a wind from his mouth!
"Ha!"
With a furious roar, the world shook. The darkness that swept through the sky instantly became clear. Moreover, Rocks below was directly trapped in the center by a huge tornado. If he were to use this state before he obtained Jewel of Four Souls, then Toguro would definitely die because this state consumed too much energy. Even if he could kill his opponent in one or two moves, the energy consumption would still exhaust all of Toguro's life force.
However, with the support of six fragments of Jewel of Four Souls, Toguro could hold on longer. After his transformation, he broke through Rocks' gravity and arrived dozens of meters away in a flash.
"Interesting! So this is a monster!"
However, Roger had already predicted his movement. The moment he landed, Roger's sword was already waiting for him. Toguro raised his arm to block Roger's blade. Even in his full strength state, Roger's blade cut through Haki that covered Toguro's arm, and left a deep wound.
But at the same time, Toguro also punched Roger with his left fist. Roger tilted his head and dodged Toguro's fist. The ground that Toguro hit was crushed, and its impact travelled all the way to the top of the mountain behind Roger, and it just disappeared!
"Black Prison!"
Roger wasn't surprised. When Toguro was constantly forced back by Roger's attack, Rocks, who was trapped by the wind, had released his strength.
In the blink of an eye, the entire land turned into a thick darkness. Toguro and Roger's bodies seemed to be bound by this darkness!
Rocks was half squatting on the ground, his knife was embedded into the ground, and the ground had turned into a black hole!
