112. Greedy Justice!

The other side.

It is on the angel ship on the sea near Jaya Island, not far or near.

Robin uses the Flower-Flower Fruit ability to create an arm big and high enough to support herself, Uta, and Makino to the height where she can see the battlefield of Jaya Island with a telescope.

Seeing the battle fluctuations erupting on Jaya Island at this moment.

Robin's eyes are serious:

"It seems that Oni-chan has already fought with that Marine hero—Vice Admiral Garp! I think this time Marine's operation on such a large scale will definitely not be that simple!"

"And the ten warships are standard Buster Call configuration...Maybe Marine is preparing to launch a Buster Call on Jaya Island! After all, Jaya Island has become a 'paradise for pirates'."

"Perhaps because of this war, Marine's tolerance for us has reached its limit. Even if Marine launches a Buster Call towards us this time, it is not impossible!"

Perhaps Robin's talent in terms of combat power can only be described as ordinary.

But as a genius who can get a Ph.D. in archaeology at the age of eight, even though Robin seldom shows off her intelligence under Rob's care, it is undeniable that she has a good brain!

After being transferred to the Angel by Rob, Robin has been thinking about the reason for Marine's large-scale operation!

And what she just said is what Robin thinks is the most likely reason.

After hearing Robin's words.

Makino tilted her head:

"Is that so? But... what can Marine gain by doing this?"

Robin said casually:

"This uncertainty—interests, fame, prestige, or showing one's strength are all possible reasons!"

"But the most likely thing is to let Oni-chan, who has been rejecting Marine's invitation, does not have a boutny, who cannot be dealt with blatantly because of his reputation, also is a powerful existence, decide whether he will be an ally or an enemy!"

"The sea allows powerful people to appear, and it also allows free people like travelers to appear, but when a person with great power is a free traveler, it will arouse the vigilance of the World Government!"

Retracting the telescope.

Robin's eyes turned serious:

"And we are still the liberals who keep making waves in the sea, which makes the World Government and Marine feel uneasy and unstable."

"When you encounter a powerful force whose loyalties are unclear—whether it's a friend or foe—don't leave it in the gray area. Treat it as a potential adversary that needs watching!'"

"Oni-chan said—the enemy on the bright side is easier to deal with than the assasin in the dark!"

"I think the World Government and the Marine side probably think so! So after this incident, we may be wanted by everyone!"

Hearing Robin's words, Makino said thoughtfully:

"If you can't get something, then why not destroy it? What a domineering and dark way!"

The corners of her mouth raised, Robin smiled and said:

"This is the World Government! In their eyes—there are only those who are below them, and the enemies who are opposite them, and there is absolutely no common point between the two!"

"The justice of the World Government is like a demon that can never get enough to feed! How could their extremely greedy justice give up the food that keeps dangling in front of them?"

Thoughtful, Makino nodded, not acknowledging, but not denying either.

Accompanied by going to sea—

Makino's character and worldview are slowly being reshaped!

It's not that Rob, Robin, and Uta can't tolerate Makino's original gentle worldview, but as she sees and experiences more, Makino herself begins to reshape a new worldview without knowing it!

Whether this is good or bad is beyond discussion.

But at least—

Makino's change is more in line with the collective interests of this small family group!

Battlefield of Jaya Island

Boom!

There was a loud bang, the sky seemed to fall apart.

Rob's figure kept flying back, smashing through pieces of broken walls, and finally creating a big hole in the ground.

Without the slightest pause, Rob's figure flipped and stood firmly on the ground.

The Shinto held in both hands erupted with a terrifying aura like hell.

At this moment, Rob's image is very miserable!

There was blood at the corner of his mouth, and his clothes had already burst. On his exposed body, there were purple and blue bruises, and in some places, it was even possible to see some depressions in his flesh.

Obviously—

The bones inside have been shattered.

"Ten minutes!"

Clutching the Shinto in his hand, Rob's gaze was like a torch, completely ignoring the terrible condition of his body.

He pondered:

"It's only been ten minutes since the fierce battle—that monster-like old man punched me more than a hundred times, and I only cut him forty-one times and kicked him six times."

"Although I lost this battle, it was mainly due to my lack of combat experience. In terms of physique, Haki, sword skills, and physical abilities, the gap between me and Garp isn't as big as I imagined!"

Is Garp strong?

Very Strong!

This old monster was actually able to resist his "Divine Avoidance" attack using only Armament Haki and his body.

It's exactly because Garp is a veteran that he seems unstoppable!

Of course.

Besides his perverted strength in terms of physique, Haki, and physical skills, what makes Garp even more powerful is his combat experience, which has completely integrated into his instincts. That is the power that makes his scalp tingle!

During the battle—

In a situation where if he was helpless, even with the slightest flaw exposed, or an inner flaw that other enemies can't catch at all, could be accurately exploited by Garp, and he would deliver a complete set of damage!

And Garp's own flaws?

None.

It's not that there are absolutely none, but with his current combat experience or perception, there's no way to accurately grasp even the slightest flaw in his battle, and then counterattack!

The gap in combat experience is too big.

Except for the initial moments when he could resist Garp's berserk attack, in the subsequent battle, he was at a disadvantage almost the whole time, and only managed a few passive counterattacks that left some injuries on Garp's body!

"As expected of a 'Legend'!"

He subconsciously sighed, my eyes serious and dignified.

Rob muttered in my heart:

"My growth process is not at the same level as that old monster Garp!"

"Since I went to sea, I've been fighting weak opponents! And Garp has always been up against the top fighters. The intensity of the battles we've experienced and the level of our opponents are completely different, creating a vast difference in combat experience!"

Since my official debut and growing up to today, among the opponents I've encountered, the ones that can be considered real challenges are actually only Shanks when I first encountered him, and Mihawk who I challenged later!

In the battles with both of them, I relied on pure suppressive force, so I didn't gain much combat experience.

As for Rayleigh?

He wasn't an opponent but a teacher who taught me how to fight. The half year of special combat training with Rayleigh did increase my combat experience a lot!

But

After all, actual combat special training is only a type of training, and no matter what, it can't be compared to real life-or-death combat. There is a limit to the combat experience that can be gained from such training!

As for the other small-time pirates, as well as the Donquixote Family, Crocodile, etc., who were crushed and slaughtered by him at will, aside from allowing him to accumulate a brutal murderous aura, the combat experience they provided him is close to nothing.

If I really want to say it—

Fighting with Shanks, fighting with Mihawk, and even studying with Rayleigh for half a year, the sum of all the combat experience Rob has accumulated on the sea so far is not even more than the ten minutes of life and death with Garp!

"Bwahaha....…."

Just when Rob's mind was racing, Garp's bold laughter rang out again.

Immediately afterward—

Sa!

Garp's burly figure jumped up directly from the other side of the battlefield, all the suits on his body had been ripped off, and his upper body was shirtless.

The wounds of different shades were bloody.

Garp, who was in the air, directly raised his fist and entered the state of accumulating power. The powerful Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki burst out at the same time, making Garp's fist emit a terrifying aura of power.

Next moment—

Garp slams his fist at Rob:

"Rob, kid! Take a punch from the old man—Galaxy Divide!"

Bang—

This punch shattered the sky, and with extremely violent and overwhelming force, it hit Rob from a high altitude and covered him in all directions.

The terrifying Conqueror's Haki exploded from Rob's body, and at the same time, the huge Armament Haki in his body was also released in an instant. When the two merged together, the Conqueror's Haki exploded with black lightning, and the Armament Haki exploded to form a flame-like appearance.

Plus—

Rob's own Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability!

At this moment, Rob looks like a devil.

Facing Garp's terrifying punch that could instantly destroy a town, Rob raised the Shinto in his hand, and the thunder in his eyes exploded. Then, towards the sky, where Garp descended like a star, he slashed with his sword:

"Phantomless Sword!!"
