At this mont, Whitebeard, as the one faintly regarded as the first under Rocks, had always been evenly matched with Roger in terms of strength.
"That’s so cool—worthy of Captain Newgate, a top-tier monster of this sea!!!"
Among the ordinary mbers of the Rocks Pirates, Keek clenched his fists, eyes shining as he looked at Whitebeard standing at the bow, as if he were about to destroy the world. That kind of power wasn’t the first ti he’d seen it, but every ti it made his blood boil. The entire sea area had been shattered!!!
And it was at this very instant that a black gun aid at him.
"It’s useless..."
Like a ghost on the battlefield, a bullet wrapped in Conqueror’s Haki Infusion and Ryuo appeared in midair like a specter and shot straight toward Whitebeard’s chest. As a master of Haki, Whitebeard’s Observation Haki was certainly not weak—but sensing it was one thing, blocking it was another. Just as he was about to defend, the Haki bullet that was about to collide with his naginata vanished from its spot in an instant.
"What?!"
Orin didn’t even look. After firing a shot, he used the residual heat in the barrel to light himself a cigarette.
"Fuu..."
A flash of crimson passed through his eyes, and the future unfolded before him. A truly powerful sniper never checks whether he hit—because a miss never appears in the future.
Before anyone could react, a searing pain followed.
"Pwah!!!"
A great spray of blood blossod on Whitebeard’s chest. But this Whitebeard was not the old man from the Summit War who needed an IV drip.
He staggered back several steps. Only after slamming his naginata into the deck did he stop retreating. He covered his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Buckin turned pale with shock and hurried over to support Whitebeard’s leg.
"Are you okay, Newgate!!!"
"I’m fine."
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Whitebeard looked grimly toward the direction the shot ca from. A young man with black long hair was sitting by the side of the Oro Jackson, slowly exhaling a puff of smoke.
"What the hell is going on!!!"
Shiki clenched a cigar between his teeth, his eyes widening in disbelief that Newgate—whom he acknowledged as an evenly matched opponent—had been injured out of nowhere.
"What is that wound!!!"
With Shiki’s roar, Linlin, Kaido, and the others also noticed this.
"What, was it Roger?!!"
"How could it be, Kaido!!!"
"Roger isn’t a Devil Fruit user!!!"
Everyone focused their attention here, their gazes all locking onto that black-haired man holding a black gun.
"Hey!!! Who the hell are you??? I’ve never seen you before!!!"
Shiki, who was interested in all strong people, was the first to shout toward Orin.
"???"
Orin held the black gun, his black long hair drifting in the wind, and his pupils glowing crimson slowly turned over.
"Just a passing pirate."
With that indifferent attitude and that handso face, everyone was stunned for a mont. Even the Marine spy infiltrated in the Rocks Pirates froze a bit, but still very professionally snapped a photo of this handso scene.
Mm...
Just right for a bounty poster.
The still-young Orin hadn’t yet experienced the strongest peak battles and hadn’t seen Joy Boy’s power. He hadn’t reached his peak yet, so he was very keen on crossing blades with the strong.
"Although I really want to have a proper fight with you all, now is obviously not the ti..."
Orin raised his black gun, turned, and appeared on the lookout of the Roger Pirates. To end this battle as quickly as possible, he decided to play dirty.
"Sorry..."
Looking at these very familiar yet still-young monsters of the old era, Orin raised his black gun.
"One shot each is enough."
As his crimson pupils kept turning, every captain and executive of the Rocks Pirates who ca over had sparks burst from their bodies.
Keek froze on the spot. He couldn’t believe that such a young man could have such terrifying strength. He blinked, thinking he had seen wrong, but then he realized—
"Where are you looking?"
That black-haired figure had appeared right in front of him.
The Rocks Pirates’ underlings around them didn’t dare make a move at all when they saw this figure.
"He... he appeared on the ship!!!"
"What? How is that possible!!! Is he a Devil Fruit user?!!"
"Who’s going to deal with him!!!"
The underlings were like headless flies, because they could see that every one of their captains was wearing a painful expression, all clutching so part of their body and bleeding nonstop.
Apart from the captains, even the hotheaded Kaido was having terrible luck—he’d been rewarded with a bullet. His eyes rolled back. Taking such a Conqueror’s Haki bullet head-on wasn’t fatal to him, but it was still a serious injury.
"Damn it..."
Just as Orin appeared on Rocks’ ship and was about to say sothing, a figure even taller than him appeared behind him.
Orin didn’t even need Observation Haki. Just seeing the curvy silhouette on the deck was enough to tell who it was.
"Well... if possible, I don’t really want to fight you."
Charlotte Linlin.
Even Charlotte Linlin, who could be considered Orin’s equal in innate physique and monstrous strength, now had a wound opened on her by a Conqueror’s Haki Infusion bullet. Threads of blood ran down along Napoleon in her hand, gathering into a stream on the ground.
"Mom!!!"
"Mom!!! Are you okay!!!"
Napoleon, Protheus, and Zeus crowded around Big Mom, asking nervously. On their human-like faces, the word "panic" was written all over.
"Hey!!! You bastard!!!"
Big Mom’s pretty face was full of gravity.
"Why are you helping the Roger Pirates!!!"
Orin, however, was completely unafraid and slowly turned his head. Those crimson eyes t Linlin’s gaze.
"You’re really beautiful. It’s just a pity you already have several kids now..."
Orin sighed with so regret, feeling he had co a bit too late.
"But negotiating with ..."
"Better let Rocks co and say it himself."
