Chapter 146 - Will Vs Rayleigh (1)
"In that case, let's fight! I also want to see what's left of "Dark King" Rayleigh fame!"
"Dark King" Rayleigh?
Why does this name feel so familiar?
Nami and the others were puzzled. They had definitely heard this name, but they couldn't recall the name abruptly.
At that moment, Issho finally remembered in his mind and said solemnly, "So you are the 'Right-Hand man of the Pirate King', the famous "Dark King" Rayleigh?"
"I've been to sea with Roger for a long time, but the few times I've talked with Issho-san, and I didn't have an1y other thoughts mixed in, so please don't misunderstand me, Issho-san."
Issho, who felt he was being used, just nodded his head, whether his heart recognized his explanation or not remained to be verified.
Nami and the others, on the other hand, were completely wide-eyed and open-mouthed at the ungainly white-haired uncle, the old man who was actually the vice-captain of the Pirate King, the big man who lived in the legend?
Weren't all of Roger's remnants captured by the Navy?
If this man is really the "Dark King" Rayleigh? then the captain is in danger, isn't he?
What is this all about?
Almost everyone was confused by Rayleigh's identity, except for Will, who had already anticipated it.
"Rayleigh-san isn't planning to fight here, is he?"
"There's a clearing in the backwoods of our bar where no one will disturb us, I'll meet you there tomorrow at noon."
It seemed that Rayleigh did not have the intention to take action immediately, he appeared here today just to say 'hello'.
Rayleigh still appreciated the young man, despite the death of Hachi, but if the other party was disappointingly weak, then death would be death...
Will had an impression of that place, not far from Shakky's bar, he had seen it today when he was walking through the forest with Koby, it was remote and suitable for strong people like them to fight!
Not to mention an extra night of prep time, which is plenty!
"Yes! I'll be there on time tomorrow!"
One hand at a time, Rayleigh didn't even forget to take two bottles of wine with him when he left, and as for the appointment tomorrow, Rayleigh believed that Will wasn't the kind of person who would run away without a fight, and Will didn't even think of running away!
"What to do? Why don't we get out of here? At the speed of the Avenger, he should not be able to catch up, right?"
After Rayleigh left, Snow tried to give her advice, after all, the name of the Pirate King's vice-captain is too terrifying!
As the saying goes, a man's name is his own shadow, and those who can make a name for themselves on the sea where pirates are roaming are hardly ever those who seek fame!
Even if they have confidence in their captain, it depends on the situation!
But Will shook his head firmly and turned back to his room without saying anything.
"Don't say such words, when has our captain ever let anyone down, I believe in him!" Nami also turned around and returned to her room after saying these words with the same determination.
"That's right if he can't even get through this, how is he going to avenge me!" Snow also knew she had said the wrong thing, but instead of going back to her room, she went to the kitchen, where she wanted to support Will in the area she was best at!
How can he have the energy to fight if he doesn't eat well?
Robin, on the other hand, fell silent when she learned Rayleigh's true identity...
....
On the next day, Will, who had finished rejuvenating himself, first ate the 'sure win' breakfast that Snow had prepared all night, and then set off with everyone after two hours of activity and eating.
It wasn't that he didn't want to go alone, but Nami and the others had made up their minds to go, and in their own words; "If we missed this time, how can we see this kind of cross-generation showdown!"
Well, Will admitted that they are very reasonable, and since they want to go together, let's go together, for this Snow also took a lot of effort to shrink the whole ship to take with them.
Now that they have decided on the location, let's not bother walking over this time.
Will directly used his ability to open a door in the air, and then everyone walked in one by one...
This was the first time Will used the door fruit ability to transfer his whole crew, but the effect was really good, it didn't take long for them to see through the green space outside of Shakky's bar.
Opening the door again and everyone appeared deep in the forest, which was amazing.
At this time, Rayleigh was still inside, drinking beer...
The sudden appearance of Will and others directly made him raise his eyebrows, "Is this your Devil Fruit ability? Well... It's a very practical ability, as you don't have to buy a ticket to play anywhere anymore~"
Faced with Rayleigh ridicule, Will just shrugged his shoulders and acquiesced...
Then Rayleigh saw Snow, who looked like a little loli, suddenly throw a 'toy' ship in her hands into the open ground.
After Snowball withdrew her ability to maintain its shrinks, the Avengers transformed into a gigantic creature that left Rayleigh and Shakky speechless.
This ability was interesting...
But soon Rayleigh regained his composure, he had followed Roger for so many years, what strange ability had he not seen before, but this ship was so attractive that even if he had seen it once yesterday, it was still hard to take his eyes off it.
"Let them stay here, Shakky will entertain them."
Will nodded and added, "But the price should be reasonable."
Rayleigh and Shakky were stunned at the same time then laughed very freely!
"Don't worry, there is no charge for all the spending this time, and I'll take care of the safety of these kids." In her eyes, apart from Issho, this place was really full of children.
Although Nami and the others wanted to go over there, Will felt that it was safer for them to stay here, considering the scope of the battle.
So, Will and Rayleigh gradually disappeared into the forest...
Sand Devil Fruit + Thunder Devil Fruit + Gate Devil Fruit + Shadow Devil Fruit + Gravity Devil Fruit + Slippery Devil Fruit!
These are the six devil fruits that Will thought about for a long time last night before finally equipping the six devil fruits on his infinity gauntlet.
Although there are door fruits that provide magical abilities, the movement speed bonus provided by slippery fruits is more useful during the battle. After all, It's so stupid to just think about opening the door and transfer...
And this is also the strongest state he can match up at the moment, and if he can't win this way, he'll have to choose to sacrifice his other devil fruit and force himself to match the enemy!
He really didn't want to waste his devil fruits in such a strategic scheme on Rayleigh unless he had to because even if he won, it wouldn't do any good to him.
As for arresting Rayleigh and turning him over to the Navy...
Only crazy people will think of doing that!!
