103. Take The Initiative To Walk Into The Crocodile's Attack Range!

Rob blocked Robin and Makino who were about to attack him, ignoring the minor enemies and cannon fodder around him. He looked directly at the top of the tall building of the Donquixote family headquarters!

His eyes widened, and a red light flashed in his pupils.

Bang

The Conqueror's Haki, which he hadn't fully released in a long time, burst out in full force.

A hurricane formed and swept across the entire Mock Town and all of Jaya Island. Streets, houses, and buildings were all affected by Rob's Conqueror's Haki, suffering varying degrees of physical damage!

All creatures on Jaya Island, except for the Seven Warlords of the Sea and a few of their top subordinates, rolled their eyes and then completely lost consciousness, falling to the ground.

Even those subordinates who did not lose consciousness, such as Daz Bonez and Trebol, were all sweating coldly, as if they had consumed a lot of physical strength in an instant and were weak.

The very few conscious subordinates, such as Daz Bonez and Trebol, also knelt on the ground one after another, panting heavily, and directly entered the weak witch den!

Facing the impact of Rob's Conqueror's Haki, the only ones who could maintain complete combat effectiveness were: Hawkeye, Doflamingo, Crocodile, and Gecko Moria, these four Seven Warlords of the Sea!

Ten seconds later.

The Conqueror's Haki erupted from Rob's body and instantly restrained.

He stood there calmly, without any waves in his eyes. The burst of Conqueror's Haki just now was as if he had taken a sip of rice and drank a sip of water—it was not worth mentioning.

And at this moment—

Standing on the roof of the headquarters of the Donquixote family, the faces of the group of four who watched this scene became extremely solemn.

Among them, Doflamingo's expression changed the most. Blue veins popped out on his forehead, cold sweat gradually flowed down his face, the original confident smile disappeared, and his complexion became extremely ugly.

Pupil tremor:

"How is this possible... There are 15,000 people, including the capable cadres under my command! One Conqueror's Haki, and all of them are taken out instantly?! Why does he have such a terrifying Conqueror's Haki?"

Next to Doflamingo, Moria's eyes trembled slightly. The terrifying Conqueror's Haki just now reminded him of Kaido's Conqueror's Haki that he felt when he was fighting in Wano Country!

Even—

The Conqueror's Haki that Rob unleashed just now is even more powerful than Kaido's back then!

What kind of terrifying aura is this?

What kind of terrifying will is this?

What kind of ambitions does he have?

Moria, at this moment—

Regretted rashly participating in Doflamingo's battle plan against Rob!

He suddenly felt that maybe he didn't come here to get Rob's shadow or body, but came here to give Rob his head.

"Absalom...

Moria turned to look at his subordinates, only to be surprised to find that Absalom was foaming at the mouth, his eyes rolled back, and he had fallen unconscious on the ground.

Seeing this scene.

The corner of Moria's mouth twitched suddenly—

Among all the subordinates present, only his subordinate, Absalom, performed the worst!

Inside the group of four on the roof.

The only two who were not surprised that Rob had such Conqueror's Haki were Hawkeye and Crocodile, who had personally fought against Rob and knew his strength best!

Smoking a cigar, Crocodile looked at the furious Doflamingo:

"You really invited us to watch a good show! It's just that these battle plans of yours are just like your nickname in the underground world—Joker! You really are a clown, Doflamingo!"

Bang

Hearing Crocodile's words, the blood vessels on Doflamingo's face bulged out of rage, making him look even more ferocious. The fists in his hands were clenched loudly, but he couldn't refute Crocodile's ridicule.

Crocodile's eyes and demeanor showed even more ridicule and disdain.

Crocodile was very disappointed at the moment. He thought Doflamingo would be able to develop into a worthy rival. After all, he is also a cunning and strategic hero, similar to himself!

But as it stands now, this Doflamingo guy—

That's all!

No longer caring about Doflamingo, Crocodile, smoking his cigar, looked at Daz Bonez, who was kneeling next to him:

"Can you still move, Mr. 1?"

After hearing Crocodile's inquiry, Daz Bonez nodded silently, then forced himself to stand up.

Seeing him standing up.

Crocodile issued commands directly:

"Those two women, I'll leave them to you to deal with. Just make sure they stay alive!"

Hearing the order.

Daz Bonez's face became serious:

"I see, Boss!"

After assigning Daz Bonez his mission, Crocodile looked at Hawkeye, Doflamingo, and Moria, and said directly:

"I'm going to fight! You can follow me or not, it's up to you! To be clear, none of us can take that kid one-on-one, including you, Hawkeye!"

"Since that kid came to this island, with his vengeful nature, all of us have been targeted by him! So if we want to survive, it's best to fight together!"

Finishing his statement, Crocodile averted his gaze, then turned and walked towards the edge of the building, calling out to Daz Bonez:

"Let's go, Mr. 1!"

While speaking, Crocodile's figure leaped directly from the roof, followed by his most loyal subordinate, Daz Bonez. The two prepared to confront Rob, Robin, and Makino.

As Crocodile and Daz Bonez descended to the ground, Crocodile's right hand pressed onto the ground, activating his ability. He immediately unleashed a large-scale natural disaster-level move:

"Ground Death!"

Bang

As the land, buildings, animals, and plants began to dry up rapidly, weathering and turning into a complete desert with Crocodile at the center. He was creating a battlefield suited for himself!

On the other side, observing the whole process with Observation Haki, Rob's eyes showed a hint of surprise:

"Interesting! In the end, did Crocodile take the lead?"

"Indeed—compared to Doflamingo, who is self-indulgent, Moria, who has been in a slump for years, and Hawkeye, the lone wolf of the sea, only Crocodile can be the leader!"

In the base camp of Doflamingo, seeing Crocodile take the initiative was unexpected yet reasonable at the same time.

Of course, Doflamingo was caught off guard initially, but he was definitely not an incompetent waste.

Now—

After seeing Crocodile take the lead, Doflamingo came back to his senses. Under Robin's Observation Haki, he arranged for several capable cadres of the Donquixote family to assist Daz Bonez in targeting Robin and Makino.

Seeing this, Rob turned to Robin and Makino, who were ready for action:

"Their cadres are dispatched! The battle with those cadres is up to you! But don't force yourselves, and be careful, don't be careless! They are not weak!"

Hearing Rob's words, both Robin and Makino nodded with serious faces. They then trotted away, intending to transfer the battlefield elsewhere to avoid being affected by the battle between Rob and the four Seven Warlords of the Sea.

After Robin and Makino left, Rob looked at Mock Town, which was turning into a desert.

He pondered for a while.

Then, he took a step and walked directly toward the area affected by Crocodile's ultimate move—Ground Death!

Soon, as Rob's figure entered the ground that had just turned into a desert, Crocodile suddenly raised his head and looked at Rob walking within his attack range, still advancing toward him.

"You actually took the initiative to walk into my 'desert'!"

His eyes narrowed, and a sneer appeared on Crocodile's face as he spoke:

"Are you so arrogant now, affected by your own power? Rob!!!!"

Bang

Shouting Rob's name angrily, Crocodile stood up straight.

Then he raised his hand and waved it toward Rob, who had just walked into the desert he created. A powerful sandstorm formed directly and swept toward Rob and the entire Mock Town crazily!

Sandstorm: Heavy.

This is Crocodile's move that was enhanced by splitting it multiple times—a sandstorm that greatly increases in power, capable of forming an enhanced sandstorm that destroys a town through weathering, wind, and sand cutting.

Its power—

Extremely formidable!

Rumbling (T/N: Those who know)

Faced with this heavy sandstorm that could destroy a town within seconds, Rob's expression remained unchanged. His right hand moved to the handle of Shinto at his waist, and he drew the sword out of its sheath unhurriedly.

Swish

Shinto unsheathed released a scarlet aura. Rob raised the long sword in his hand, looked at the heavy sandstorm sweeping and destroying everything in front of him, and slashed out with an easy, unremarkable swing!

Zheng

The tyrannical slash instantly broke through the heavy sandstorm that covered the sky and the sun. The powerful sword energy completely suppressed the storm that had already swept away.

Then it left a terrifying slashing gully across the desert, a testament to Rob's overwhelming power!
