Outskirts of God Valley:
As Rocks charged into God Valley, the other Executive Officers followed closely behind.
This time, the Rocks Pirates could be said to have come out in full force. In addition to the numerous male combat Executive Officers, there were also several female Executive Officers.
However, Nox didn't know any of these women.
After all, he had only joined the Rocks Pirates for three years, and during this time, he was either cultivating or on the road, so he had no intention of interacting with those women.
"The treasure is mine!!"
When the Pirates entered God Valley and saw the scattered treasures there, they rushed forward to snatch them, even causing quite a bit of internal strife because of it.
These were deliberately scattered here by the Celestial Dragons beforehand to slow down the Pirates' progress.
However, these treasures could only slow down the ordinary Pirates.
For Rocks and the many Executive Officers, what they wanted was not these ordinary treasures, but the most precious Devil Fruit.
"Rocks, how could you be here?!"
However, when Rocks and his group were about to reach the center of God Valley, they were blocked by Gorosei Saturn Saint.
Beside the Gorosei were CP0 Deputy Chief Carlo, who possessed the Paramythia-type Devil Fruit, and Segun, who possessed the Logia-type Mercury Devil Fruit.
There were also members of the God's Knights led by Saint Garling.
What surprised Nox was that Garp was also here.
Garp thought Roger had already arrived at God Valley, so he abandoned his ship and rushed over using Moonwalk.
But after arriving at God Valley, he found that Roger was not there at all, and he also encountered Gorosei Saturn Saint, so he could only come here to block the Rocks Pirates.
"gura rara rara, isn't that Gorosei Saturn Saint?"
"Why am I here? Why can't I be here?"
"Aren't you Celestial Dragons holding a grand ceremony? Of course, I'm here to attend the ceremony and claim the reward!"
Seeing Gorosei Saturn Saint, Rocks laughed heartily.
Because he now confirmed that the intelligence was indeed true, and this was truly the place where the Celestial Dragons were holding a grand ceremony.
After all, when he received the news before, he also suspected it was false. Now that he had confirmed it, he was very excited and thrilled.
This meant that the longevity formula mentioned in the intelligence was very likely also true!
"Rocks, if you leave now, I can pretend nothing happened."
"Otherwise, if you anger the Celestial Dragons, we will make you understand why the Celestial Dragons are the rulers of this World!"
Gorosei Saturn Saint said angrily.
"gura rara rara, then come on, let me see what qualifications you Celestial Dragons have to be the rulers of this World!"
"You are just Celestial Dragons. Today, I, Rocks, will slaughter all of you!!"
"And I, Rocks, will replace you Celestial Dragons and become the new ruler of this World!"
"Executive Officers, attack!!"
Rocks said frantically.
"Unlimited Crescent Skyward!!!"
The moment Rocks' words fell, Nox fiercely slashed towards a Knight in the God's Knights whose aura seemed to be at the Admiral candidate level.
The massive slash, like a crescent moon, was extremely fast. The Knight saw the oncoming slash and could only subconsciously block in front of him with the sword in his hand.
But the next moment, he was sent flying by the crescent slash, and Nox also took this opportunity to catch up with the Knight who was sent flying.
Seeing Nox make a move, the other Executive Officers also began to move one after another, but they consciously avoided the Gorosei; that guy was to be left for Rocks.
"Jie hahaha, die!!"
Golden Lion, like Nox, also found a God's Knight at the Admiral candidate level, slashed him away with a sword, and then, like Nox, chased after him, leaving Rocks' line of sight.
"gura rara rara!!"
Whitebeard was surprisingly smart this time. He didn't go for the Admiral-level CP0 Deputy Chief and Saint Garling, but instead chose a God's Knight at the Admiral candidate level.
Among the members of the God's Knights here, except for the strongest Saint Garling, who barely possessed Admiral-level combat power, the strength of the other members was around the Admiral candidate level.
It could be said that everyone who could become a God's Knight was not weak.
Such a powerful and numerous group of experts would be one of the most powerful forces anywhere, but in front of the Rocks Pirates, this force was still not enough.
The few people who reacted the fastest chose their opponents and left here, opening up another battlefield.
Only the slower-reacting World and Violence King Brandon had very ugly expressions, looking at the remaining Gorosei Saturn Saint, Garp, and the two CP0 Deputy Chiefs.
World and Brandon cursed inwardly. They were a step too slow, which resulted in the weaker opponents being chosen.
They could only set their sights on the two CP0 Deputy Chiefs, as compared to Garp and Gorosei Saturn Saint, these two were weaker.
"gura rara rara, Monkey D. Garp, you are also from the D. family, why are you willing to be a lackey for the Celestial Dragons?"
"Join me, kill the Gorosei, kill the Celestial Dragons, and together rule this World!!"
Looking at only Gorosei Saturn Saint and Garp remaining, Rocks laughed heartily and invited Garp.
"Rocks, this World is not yours to rule yet, and if you were to rule the World, this World would be plunged into misery. As a Marine, I will definitely stop you!"
Garp said with disgust.
"gura rara rara, in that case, I can only kill you!"
"Shura Slash!!"
Rocks drew his shura sword, the deep red Haoshoku Haki wrapped around it, and Busoshoku Haki and the devouring power of the Dark-Dark Fruit were all integrated into this sword strike!
"Bone Fist: Galaxy Impact!"
Garp also integrated his own strength, Busoshoku Haki, and all the body art he had learned into his fist, and punched out.
When the sword and the fist collided, they did not touch each other. Under the intense collision aftermath, the ground was torn apart, and the dark clouds in the sky were also split open because of it.
"Bang!!!"
However, even Garp's full-power strike was directly defeated by Rocks, and he was sent flying hundreds of meters away by Rocks.
The moment Garp attacked, Gorosei Saturn Saint began to transform.
Saturn Saint's Devil Fruit is a Mythical Zoan Oni Bull. His head is in the shape of a bull, while his body is in the shape of a spider. His abilities are fierce eyes and poison.
"Poison Liquid Impact!!!"
Saturn Saint spat out a large amount of poison liquid, wanting to corrode Rocks with it.
"gura rara rara, I am a Dark-Dark Fruit user, the power of Devil Fruit is useless against me!"
"Dark Vortex!!!"
Rocks saw Saturn Saint's attack, laughed loudly, and a dark vortex appeared in his left hand, devouring all the poison liquid.
"Ability users are weak and powerless in front of me!"
As he spoke, the power of darkness on Rocks' body surged out like the Sea, wrapping around Saturn Saint.
Immediately, Saturn Saint, who had transformed into an Oni Bull, had his Devil Fruit ability suppressed instantly and had to return to his human form.
"Shura Slash!!!"
Following that, Rocks slashed at Saturn Saint again with a sword.
Saturn Saint, whose ability was suppressed, could only wrap Busoshoku Haki and Haoshoku Haki around his fist and take Rocks' slash head-on, just like Garp.
"Boom!!!"
However, Saturn Saint, without the enhancement of his ability, was much weaker than Garp. He was slashed by Rocks, spitting blood, and was sent flying like Garp.
"Rocks!!!"
However, just as Rocks was about to press his advantage, Garp, who had been sent flying, charged back again.
"Shura Slash!!"
But facing the incredibly powerful Rocks, even Garp was helpless. He was sent flying again just as he charged back.
Rocks single-handedly fought Garp and Gorosei Saturn Saint, completely suppressing Saturn Saint and Garp. If this continued, both of them would be killed by Rocks!
"Damn it, damn it, I am a Gorosei."
Saturn Saint, who was sent crashing into the ground by Rocks again, stood up in extreme anger, but before he could finish speaking, he was sent crashing into the ground by Rocks again.
As a Gorosei, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?
But his strength, Saturn Saint, seemed so weak and insignificant in front of Rocks, like an immortal cockroach being constantly humiliated by Rocks!
"Lowly Pirate, how dare you resist the noble God's Knight Hollen!!!"
Hollen Saint, who was sent flying by Nox, stood up from the ground and stared intently at Nox, who was walking towards him.
"Oh? Noble? In my eyes, you are just an ant, ready to be killed at any time!"
Nox, who was originally using Kenbunshoku Haki to search for Devil Fruit everywhere, had his attention drawn back by Hollen Saint in front of him.
He was a little curious as to what gave this Celestial Dragon the confidence that he wouldn't dare to resist him?
He had just casually unleashed a slash and used the opportunity to escape Rocks' line of sight, so that he could search for the whereabouts of those top-tier Devil Fruit in God Valley.
But he didn't expect to be underestimated by this guy in front of him who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Looking at Nox's disdainful eyes, the kind of look that was exactly like how he used to look at slaves.
"Pirate, die!!"
Hollen Saint was born noble and had never thought that one day he would be looked at like a slave.
Immediately, Hollen Saint was enraged. He wanted to completely kill the Pirate in front of him to quell the anger in his heart!
"Burst Shave!!"
"Sacred Cut!!!"
The ground beneath Hollen Saint's feet instantly collapsed, and he approached Nox at an extremely fast speed. The silver-white long sword in his hand was like a violent holy light about to kill the sinful Pirate.
"Unlimited Crescent Skyward!!"
Looking at the charging Hollen Saint, Nox looked disdainful. It was still the same crescent slash as before, but this time, the crescent slash was even more powerful than the last time!!
Facing this unparalleled crescent slash, Hollen Saint's attack was so vulnerable in front of it, shattered upon impact.
"How is that possible!!!"
Hollen Saint, even when the crescent slash struck, spitting blood, suffering internal injuries, and his body being sent flying, couldn't believe that he was so easily defeated!!
"Nothing is impossible, you are too weak!"
As he spoke, Nox charged forward with a sword step. He didn't want to be entangled with the guy in front of him for too long, so as not to hinder his search for Devil Fruit in God Valley.
"I am a noble God's Knight!!!"
Hollen Saint, who had suppressed his injuries, stabilized his body and still stared proudly at Nox, who was approaching him.
Facing this kind of idiot, Nox didn't say anything further. He leaped up and flew into the sky.
The next moment, Nox descended from the sky like a meteor.
"Limitless Haoshoku Entwined Mountain Splitting Earth Slash!"
The extremely compressed and dense power on the Seven Star Sword instantly burst forth.
"Roar!!!"
Hollen Saint let out a beastly roar, and saw his entire body rapidly change, transforming into a giant black mammoth over twenty meters tall, with a metallic sheen.
This was his Devil Fruit ability, the Animal-type Ancient Zoan Steel Mammoth.
He roared, his long white tusks curved upwards, and then he raised his head and used all his strength to resist Nox's attack.
However, even so, Hollen Saint below felt as if an indestructible diamond mountain was falling and smashing down.
That extreme power and pressure, even his indestructible tusks, were still difficult to block.
Haoshoku Haki entwined attacks are area-of-effect attacks. His tusks could only block a small part, and most of the attack directly hit his body through the tusks.
"Ah!!!!"
With just one encounter, Hollen Saint was ruthlessly and overwhelmingly crushed to the ground by Nox, and the ground within a few hundred meters below him was even dented by more than fifty meters.
Under Nox's attack, even Hollen Saint's steel mammoth body suffered heavy damage.
The tremendous pain transmitted from the base of his tusks was unbearable for him. His steel mammoth body seemed to have no defense in front of Nox.
"Mere Pirate, how dare you injure me!!"
Hollen Saint stood up angrily and returned to his human-beast form, picked up his O Wazamono sword, Chigiri, covered it with Busoshoku Haki, and the killing intent in his eyes overflowed.
