On the azure sea, Buggy’s hand, holding a telescope, suddenly trembled violently.

“Roger… Captain Roger!” he shrieked, his voice cracking.

“That Marine warship seems… seems to be charging towards us at full speed!”

“Hmm?” Rayleigh’s wine glass paused, and his brow furrowed slightly: “Marines from the first half of the Grand Line… are they really that reckless?”

The laughter on the deck ceased abruptly.

“Buggy, is that true? We’re the Roger Pirates!” A disbelieving Shanks snatched the telescope.

However, just as he adjusted the focus, the figure standing at the bow of the warship clearly appeared in the lens.

His black shirt flapped loudly in the sea wind, and the Justice cloak with black trim on its cuffs fluttered behind him. The black blade eight desolations in his right hand exuded a chilling aura.

“This guy…” Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Shanks’s forehead, but before he could speak, Buggy’s voice came again from the other side.

“No… no!” Buggy, with his clear vision, suddenly jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

“Captain Roger! The one opposite isn’t an ordinary Marine! It’s… it’s Heaven Tremor Gurn!!”

The name exploded like a bomb on the deck.

“Heaven Quake?” Roger’s smile faltered for a moment.

Rayleigh’s glasses flashed with a cold light, and even the usually arrogant Bullet suddenly stood up.

Over the years, the name Heaven Tremor of the Marine was enough to make everyone not dare to take him lightly!

“No wonder, so it’s this guy!” Rayleigh pushed his glasses up, the lenses reflecting a cold light: “It seems it’s not an ordinary Four Seas patrol warship…”

“Hahaha!” Roger stood at the bow, hands on his hips, grinning widely: “Interesting! I was just thinking of destroying it to add some excitement to the feast. I didn’t expect it to charge over on its own?!”

“Heaven Quake…” Rayleigh walked forward, “Getting into a conflict with him on the sea isn't a good choice!”

At this moment, Gurn’s warship was very close, less than 1 nautical mile between them.

“My apologies!” Rayleigh, not wanting trouble, was the first to look at Gurn and chuckled softly.

“Navy brat, if possible, could you not disturb us while we’re drinking?”

Meanwhile, on the warship,

Gurn looked at this ‘Pluton’ and couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, a chilling arc forming at the corner of his mouth.

“I disturb you? Don’t make that face; you make it sound like you weren’t just discussing whether to sink my warship as after-dinner entertainment!”

Faced with Gurn’s merciless words, Rayleigh did not refute him.

Pirates and Marines are inherently opposed… it’s simply that if you meet me, you try to capture me, and if I meet you, I try to destroy you.

Moreover, they had indeed intended to act against Gurn’s warship just now, without knowing the full situation.

“Navy brat, it’s not yet your era to be so arrogant!”

At this moment, Jabba, wearing small sunglasses and holding two axes, stepped forward with a displeased expression.

In an instant, the Conqueror's Haki of the two Vice-Captains of the Roger Pirates subtly pressed towards Gurn.

And Roger, at this time, was silently watching this scene with a wooden wine cup in hand, a slight smile on his lips.

Facing the Haki suppression from Rayleigh and Jabba, Gurn took a deep breath, and a wild, arrogant arc gradually formed at the corner of his mouth.

“I say, you two… if you want to threaten someone, then show your true abilities!!!”

A furious roar exploded like thunder, and the dark purple Conqueror's Haki, combined with Heaven Quake’s ability, erupted from the bow of the warship!

Where the momentum passed, it was like a shockwave, and space shattered into glass-like fragments inch by inch!

“Boom!!” The sea surface instantly collapsed under the terrifying pressure, and thick clouds were forcibly torn apart, revealing a grotesque gap.

The Oro Jackson’s hull groaned under the strain, and the wine barrels on the deck exploded one after another.

Several weaker pirate servants directly rolled their eyes and fell to the ground.

“This level of Conqueror's Haki?!” Rayleigh’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he immediately released his Haki at full power to resist.

Jabba also burst forth with his momentum simultaneously; crimson and pitch-black Haki intertwined, clashing fiercely with Gurn’s dark purple Conqueror's Haki in the air!

“Crack!” The sea between the two ships was torn apart by an invisible force; seawater rolled back to both sides, forming a trench dozens of meters deep!

In a two-on-one situation, for a moment, Rayleigh and Jabba’s Conqueror's Haki momentum could not suppress Gurn!

“What the hell…” Jabba gritted his teeth, cold sweat seeping from his temples, “This guy… actually has this level of Haki?!”

“No wonder he could defeat Gin and Oden.” Rayleigh instantly intensified his Haki release to resist, his golden hair tips fluttering in the violent airflow.

“If anyone were to face you alone, they would find it troublesome…”

“Rayleigh.” At this moment, a calm voice came, and Roger put down his wine cup heavily and walked forward.

And when Jabba and Rayleigh saw their Captain step forward, they suddenly reined in their momentum.

“I’ve wanted to meet you for a long time, Gurn!” Roger suddenly burst into laughter, a red light flashing in his eyes.

“After all, you are the man who inherited it!” Before his words fell, Roger suddenly took a step forward, fiercely drawing Ace, and golden-red Conqueror's Haki erupted like a volcano.

“Come on, Navy brat! Let me see why it chose you?!”

Two imperial aptitudes clashed violently on the sea, and the entire ocean trembled because of it!

This collision was completely unlike the previous level; it was a true battle of equally matched kings!!

In an instant, the air in the entire sea area seemed to solidify for a moment, and then— “Bang!!!”

The sky exploded, the clouds were completely torn into fragments revealing pure azure, monstrous waves surged on the sea, and the two ships shook violently, almost being overturned!

Buggy clung desperately to the mast, his face pale: “He can actually clash with Captain Roger’s Conqueror's Haki?!”

“So strong!” Shanks stared intently at the figure at the bow of the warship, his fists unconsciously clenched: “Is this the strength of the Marine ‘Heaven Tremor’?! The only man among the four ‘monsters’ of the New Era Marines who possesses Conqueror's Haki!”

At the same time, Bullet, who had been quietly watching all this, pierced Gurn with his gaze like a knife.

Since Crocus boarded the ship, he had already known the news of Roger’s terminal illness.

This fact plunged him into deep anxiety, especially knowing that he would never have the chance to defeat Roger in this lifetime.

“Hey, Bullet!” Rayleigh noticed the abnormality and frowned, shouting, “What do you want to do?”

“Heh heh.” Bullet ignored Rayleigh’s question.

His arms instantly became covered in pitch-black Armament Haki, and a suffocating sense of pressure emanated from his body.

“Roger, since you’re not making a move…” His low voice carried a dangerous aura, “Then I’ll do it.”

“Hmm?” Roger had not yet had time to respond.

The next second, Bullet’s figure shot out like a cannonball, the shockwave tearing a huge trench in the sea, and towering waves pushed aside to both sides.
