Grand Line, Oro Jackson of the Roger Pirates.
Rocks looked speechlessly at Shanks and Buggy who had already started fighting before they had finished their sentences, and walked straight towards the captain of the ship, Roger.
"Goldo Roger, I would like to ask you for advice."
Rocks walked up to Roger and told him his purpose directly.
Roger, who was drinking and playing finger-guessing games with several crew members, heard this and turned to look at Rocks.
"Hahaha! Little brat, if you want to challenge me, you're a hundred years too early!"
After looking at Rocks for a while, Roger's face turned red and he laughed loudly. Then he ignored Rocks and continued to play finger-guessing games with his crew members.
"Hahaha, kid, Boss Roger is really lazy. Except when he meets someone he's interested in, he's just a bastard who only knows how to drink."
A crew member next to Roger said this with a smile, and then continued to join in the finger-guessing game.
Rocks was not too disappointed after being rejected by Roger.
Come to think of it, he was not a member of Roger's pirate group, but just an invited guest. He had no right to ask for advice.
Rocks didn't stay here either, and prepared to go to the bow to get some fresh air.
However, when he arrived at the bow, he felt very helpless.
"Hahaha! Rayleigh, keep going, I haven't given up yet!"
On the empty deck at the bow, Barrett was fighting with Rayleigh with great interest.
The two figures kept colliding, and the air waves kept surging.
There were also several members of Roger's pirate group surrounding them, shouting constantly.
"Rayleigh, come on! Don't lose to a little brat!"
"Hahaha, good job, Barrett brat, just hit him in the face!"
"Left, left, oops, just one step away from kicking Rayleigh's ass."
Barrett threw a punch wrapped in deep Armament Haki, blocked Rayleigh's sword, clenched his right fist, and hit Rayleigh's chest hard.
Feeling Barrett's strong and excessive armed color domineering, Rayleigh had to take it seriously. He quickly took a step back and slapped out with his palm, hitting Barrett's fist.
"Buzz!"
The two of them burst out with their domineering aura at the same time and attacked each other.
When the fists collided with the palms, air waves surged and black and red lightning flashed.
"Little ghost, your talent is really terrifying. After just a short battle, you have already learned the flowing domineering aura."
Feeling the amount of domineering aura concentrated in Barrett's fist, Rayleigh was also amazed.
Unexpectedly, in such a short time of fighting with him, he had actually learned the domineering moves that I had used.
Feeling the power coming from his palms getting stronger and stronger, Rayleigh felt a little overwhelmed. The long sword in his hand was wrapped with a special domineering aura, and he slashed directly towards Barrett.
"Hahaha, such a simple trick, I can learn it after just two glances. What's so surprising?"
Looking at the long sword coming towards him, Barrett stepped forward, retreated, and then rushed towards Rayleigh's long sword with his fist covered with flowing domineering energy.
The moment the fist collided with the sword, Barrett's face changed. He felt a terrible force directly transmitted into his body, knocking him away.
"Bang!"
After hitting the ship's railing heavily and with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, Barrett stood up and looked at Rayleigh with great excitement.
"Hey! What was that? It's totally different from the power you used before!"
Barrett asked Rayleigh directly.
Looking at Barrett, Rayleigh raised the corners of his mouth and chuckled.
"Haha, do you want to know? But I won't tell you."
After saying that, he rushed directly towards Barrett, waving his sword.
Barrett didn't get angry when he heard that. He laughed excitedly, activated his fusion ability, and merged his arms with the two swords, then rushed towards Rayleigh.
Suddenly, the two men kept fighting each other, swords colliding, and knives flashing.
After dodging Barrett's attack, Rayleigh swung the sword in his hand and stabbed towards Barrett.
"Come here, little Barrett, feel my move."
Barrett crossed his arms and placed the sword against his chest to block the sword that was coming at him.
"bite"
"Bang!"
As soon as the swords collided, Barrett flew backwards, with blood flowing from his arms.
Raising his arm to take a look, Barrett was extremely curious about what was going on with that guy Rayleigh.
The attack power suddenly became so strong, and the strength seemed to become even stronger.
From the initial covering, entanglement, solidification of the Armament Haki, to the final flow, Barrett learned the techniques of applying it in the process of fighting, and began to fight back and forth with Rayleigh. Although he still couldn't beat Rayleigh, it was just his lack of experience. However, now he was suddenly beaten by the opponent without any chance of fighting back.
"Is that the entanglement of the Overlord Color?"
Suddenly, Rocks, who had been watching for a long time, suddenly asked.
Suddenly hearing Rocks' words, Barrett looked at Rocks curiously.
"The entanglement of Conqueror's Haki? Can Conqueror's Haki also be entangled?"
Barrett asked curiously.
It’s not that he is ignorant, it’s just that he has never come into contact with a real master.
Moreover, ever since he awakened his Conqueror's Haki, he has been using it to clear out the miscellaneous soldiers.
Rayleigh turned to look at Rocks, his eyes also full of surprise.
He never expected that this kid who had just gone out to sea would know this.
"Hahaha, yes, it is indeed the entanglement of Conqueror's Haki. How about it, kid, do you want to feel it?"
After Rayleigh finished speaking, he made a sword flower with the sword in his hand and asked Rocks.
Hearing this, Rocks certainly would not refuse. He drew out his sword and looked at Rayleigh seriously.
"Then please give me more advice."
After saying that, he stepped forward and rushed towards Rayleigh.
The long sword covered with the dark and rich Armament Haki directly collided with Rayleigh's long sword.
Feeling Rocks' power and domineering, Rayleigh also made some comparisons in his mind.
"Compared to that brat Barrett, his strength is a little bit inferior, and his armament color is also a little weak."
With this thought in mind, Rayleigh drew his sword and slashed towards Rocks' left side at an extremely fast speed.
Rocks seemed to have known this for a long time. He twisted his body in advance and then stabbed Rayleigh with a sword at the flaw that was revealed at that moment.
Seeing that he easily avoided his attack and accurately found his flaw at that moment, Rayleigh was also surprised, but he was not panicked.
He just twisted his body casually and easily resolved Rocks' attack. Then he used a sword wrapped in domineering aura to directly knock Rocks away.
"Although my armament Haki and strength are a little inferior to Barrett's, my observation Haki is far better than Barrett's, and my insight is also beyond Barrett's reach."
Rayleigh had already come to his own conclusion in his mind, so he stopped thinking about it and focused on fighting Rocks.
Unlike Barrett's fight, which was full of flesh-and-blood violence like a wild beast, Rocks' fight with Rayleigh was more thrilling.
Because of Rocks' powerful observation Haki combined with his terrifying insight, he can easily find the flaw that appears in Rayleigh at that moment and attack. In addition, he is a fruit ability user, so it has to be said that Rocks is a very tough kid.
Rayleigh twisted his body again to avoid Rocks's thrust. He held the long sword horizontally in his hand and chopped Rocks, who was rushing towards him, away with one sword.
Rocks seemed to have realized something after being knocked away by Rayleigh's sword that was filled with domineering aura.
Rayleigh looked at Rocks who seemed to have realized something, put away his sword, and looked at Rocks with a smile.
"How's it going, kid? You look like you've finally realized something."
After closing his eyes for a while to savor the feeling just now, Rocks opened his eyes and bowed to Rayleigh.
"Thank you Mr. Rayleigh for your teachings."
Upon hearing this, Rayleigh waved his hand and laughed.
"Hahaha, no need to thank me. The fact that you can gain some insights is just because you have a good talent. Well, that's all for today."
After saying that, Rayleigh stood up, left the bow, and walked towards Roger in the center of the banquet.
Barrett walked up to Rocks and slapped him on the shoulder.
"Hey, Rocks, what are you talking about with Rayleigh? Also, what is the Conqueror's Haki Entanglement? Explain it to me!"
Looking up at the somewhat excited Barrett, Rocks slowly raised his sword and aimed it at Barrett.
"If you want to know, then compete with me."
"Oh? Hahaha! Come on then!"
“Bang!”
Rayleigh ignored the fight between Rocks and Barrett and walked straight to Roger.
He picked up the bottle of wine next to him and took a few gulps.
"Hahahaha, how about it, Rayleigh?"
"Ah, they are indeed two little monsters with extraordinary talents. Not much better than Shanks, maybe even stronger than that brat Shanks."
Rayleigh took a few sips of wine, looked towards the bow, and spoke with great appreciation.
Hearing Rayleigh's words, Roger looked at Rayleigh in surprise.
However, Rayleigh still trusts his old partner very much.
"Really? Then let them stay on the ship, like Shanks and the others, as trainee crew members, and train them well. After all, they are still kids, and it's too early to send them out to sea at such a young age."
After saying that, Roger didn't think any more about it and continued to play finger-guessing games and drink with his crew members.
After listening to Roger's words, Rayleigh also felt very much in agreement.
For Rocks and Barrett, although they are quite strong considering their age, they are still too young.
The sea is still too dangerous for them now.
"Oh, I really want to see what kind of storms Rocks and his gang will cause on the sea in the future."
Rayleigh looked up at the sky and thought with some anticipation.
"By the way, Rayleigh, I'll leave those two brats to you to teach!"
