Chapter 217: Pluto Pirates vs Roger Pirates
In mid-air, Hades' "Nightmare" and Roger's "Ace" clashed invisibly.
The coating of Conqueror's Haki, and Armament Haki condensed to the extreme, rendered the two weapons dark red.
At some unknown point, their pupils both turned a majestic red.
Terrifying destructive power collided with each other.
In an instant, the surroundings changed color; the entire Sky suddenly darkened, as if everything was drawn to the two of them.
Dark red lightning coiled around their weapons, streaking across the void.
Terrifying fluctuations erupted outwards from the two of them; surging waves continuously drove the two pirate ships outwards, quickly reaching hundreds of meters away.
The two figures remained in mid-air.
Beneath them, the Sea Surface had, at some unknown point, sunken down into a hemisphere hundreds of meters in diameter.
Violent currents continuously spun like a whirlpool.
This was a collision between the World's most top-tier power.
In the shocked gazes of others, their weapons didn't collide at all.
But between "Nightmare" and "Ace", a startling and terrifying strength was contained.
This was a collision of their force fields, a collision of Haki; to be precise, it was a clash of Conqueror's Domain.
Therefore, between the two of them, an invisible pressure field formed, continuously spreading outwards, triggering such a large-scale change.
Under their terrifying Conqueror's Haki, violent fluctuations in the magnetic field were triggered, which in turn triggered changes in celestial phenomena.
Streaks of purple lightning streaked across the Sky, like nature's wrath.
Hades tightly gripped "Nightmare", his arm muscles bulged, his eyes widened, and he pressured towards Roger with even more terrifying strength.
His purple long hair streamed backwards.
Seeing this, Roger showed no weakness.
Veins bulged on his brow as he held his saber with both hands and pushed further forward.
Although their bodies both remained in mid-air, they both achieved such a miraculous feat.
"Hades!"
"Roger!"
The greeting between Great Pirates; right from the start, it was a terrifying blow.
"Not good, pull back quickly!"
Both sides' Crewmates' expressions changed.
They could clearly feel the strength generated by the collision in the center between the two was being further compressed and was on the verge of becoming unsustainable.
Any further, and that would be extreme compression, collision, and then eruption.
The two pirate ships quickly moved further away.
However, in the next moment, terrifying strength erupted instantly, releasing black and red energy, as if rendering the entire World dark.
The clouds gathered in the Sky exploded with a boom, and the entire Sky suddenly became clear.
The blast generated by the explosion spread outwards, as if a hurricane had struck.
The vast majority of Crewmates on the ship grabbed onto anything they could to stabilize themselves.
The two pirate ships directly tilted at a forty-five degree angle.
Some Crewmates who couldn't react in time, facing the terrifying blast, were swept over a thousand meters away, powerless to resist.
And Hades' and Roger's bodies also naturally fell back onto the Deck of their respective pirate ships.
"Let's have a great battle, charge!"
Roger pointed his long saber towards the Pluto Pirates, giving a command.
Upon seeing that Hades had decided to block him, he knew clearly that his plan was shattered.
The plan to ally with the Marines to jointly deal with the Rocks Pirates had failed.
However, he wasn't that fixated on it, nor did he dwell on it too much.
Since it failed, then give up.
Allying with the World Government didn't sound good to begin with.
Now it was just another choice.
One day, he would still have to face the Rocks Pirates; Roger had long been prepared.
No freedom, rather death!
From the moment he set sail, he had prepared himself to face death.
And now, he wanted to have a great battle; he might as well make it count.
"Let's see the Roger Pirates' strength."
Farazul sailed into the distance.
In God Valley's northeast, there was a Reef Cluster that could barely serve as a battleground for both sides.
Outside of God Valley, another Battlefield opened.
The clash between the Pluto Pirates and the Roger Pirates.
"Glutton" Titan, holding twin hammers, directly charged towards Roger's Deputy, Rayleigh.
"Tyrant" Baal and "Blade Edge" Aiji cornered Gaban.
"Ring King" Bill Russell targeted Spencer.
"White Shark" Seamus faced off against Sambell, who was also of the Fish-Man tribe.
King against King, Cadre against Cadre.
Although the Pluto Pirates had some Crewmates remaining in God Valley, yet facing the Roger Pirates, who were few in number and each one an elite, they still fought evenly.
This was a contest between Cadres; the Pluto Pirates' ordinary Crewmates did not participate.
Moreover, this was just a spar, not a fight to the death.
Both sides' strength gap wasn't large; if it were truly a fight to the death, it would only result in mutual destruction.
This was something both sides didn't wish to see.
Moreover, there wasn't any irreconcilable enmity between them.
Honestly speaking, this was still their first meeting.
Following Garp, Hades once again faced his fated rival, Roger.
The great battle here was continuing.
On the other side, the war in God Valley was still continuing.
Army General "The Storm Dragon" and Black Arm Zephyr were continuously drawing closer.
Before this, Hades' expectation had not been disappointed.
Lyon 'Death Gun' was still continuously hunting.
In terms of high-end combat power, the Rocks Pirates already clearly held the advantage.
"Weather Queen" Charlotte Linlin powerfully defeated her enemy.
This Strongman from the World Government was grabbed by Charlotte Linlin's large hand, completely losing the ability to resist.
With a vacant gaze, he opened his mouth.
Strange soul surged out from his body, flowing into Charlotte Linlin's mouth.
Charlotte Linlin greedily absorbed it, then licked her lips.
Releasing her hand, this Top Tier Combatant had already turned into a dried corpse.
"This soul's taste is quite delicious."
However, she still had to battle next.
The war had continued until now; it wasn't yet time for her to slacken.
Abundant soul strength nourished her body; her consumed stamina and mental state were completely restored.
As for injury, there was none at all.
Before this, she wanted to find Kaido's whereabouts.
In this terrifying Battlefield crowded with Strongmen, even Kaido was very dangerous, which made her a little worried.
"Zeus, Prometheus, you two go deal with the other enemies. Wait until I call you." Charlotte Linlin instructed.
"Leave it to us, Mama!"
The two terrifyingly strong Homies entered battle state.
One transformed into a black thunder cloud, the other into an angry fireball, and they flew towards two different directions, striking with lightning and breathing fire.
