Chapter 221 Rocks' True Identity

That's right, halfway through the conversation, Xia Chen had already realized that the Rocks in front of him was not the real Rocks.

His several attempts all yielded the results he wanted, confirming that the man in front of him was Yim!

It can only be said that although Im has lived for eight hundred years, his attainments in psychology are far inferior to the skills he acquired in his previous life over the past few decades!

Hey!

The reason is that Im is too powerful. He has even become the head of the World Government and has no room for improvement, so naturally he has never experienced the PUA package from his superiors.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy for him to find out some things.

So since Xia Chen knew that the real identity of Rocks in front of him was Im, he also began to show off his acting skills.

Who doesn't know how to act?

In the end, Xia Chen roughly understood Im's purpose, which was to want him to awaken his so-called Hades form.

And the fact that he insisted that Xia Chen was this fruit was the biggest reason why Xia Chen suspected him. Family members know their own business. Doesn't he know what kind of fruit he is?

But he was also happy about this. Since Im believed that he was the Hades Fruit and wanted him to awaken, he would be very safe as long as he didn't awaken!

Yim would never attack him, instead he would come to protect him!

So when he met CP0 and Garp and the others in Water , he was actually a little confused. This posture... was obviously wanting to kill him!

Then came the current war at the top, and the World Government has mobilized all its forces, and they look like they will not stop until he is killed!

It is obvious that it is Im who is controlling all of this, otherwise who can mobilize the Five Elders?

It was also from that time that Xia Chen vaguely understood Yim's purpose.

He wants him dead!

This conclusion is completely different from his previous conclusion that Im would protect him, and theoretically it is completely impossible.

But...what if he needs to die once to awaken his fruit?

Hades, the god of the underworld, is the king of the underworld. It is normal for him to die once, right?

So Xia Chen felt that Im must have gotten the news from somewhere, and he needed to die once before he could truly awaken the fruit!

Of course, this is just his guess, and this guess is far-fetched, but... it seems that this is the only possibility!

Otherwise, why would Yimu have nothing better to do than to kill him? There are so many people in this world that he doesn't want to kill, but why does he have to come and cause trouble for him!

If the reason is that his strength is too strong and may affect the rule of the world government, this is obviously impossible!

He only showed his unrivaled strength during the Battle of Marineford. Before that, the strength he displayed did not even reach the world's top level!

The problem is that we had already tried to kill him for the first time in the Seven Water City. If his strength had not increased so quickly at that time, we would have failed!

However, these are just Xia Chen's guesses, and he is not sure whether it is true.

Even if it’s not the case, it doesn’t matter. If he is given some time to develop, he can kill even Yim!

If Im will come to trouble him after his fruit awakens, then what he will see at that time is not the so-called Hades, the God of the Underworld, but the Monkey King Sun Wukong!

Haha! Just thinking about that scene is really interesting!

Shaking his head, Xia Chen shook off the thoughts in his mind, focused his attention back on the present, looked at Whitebeard and said calmly: "Well, I have been chatting with you here for a while, and it is time for us to go back to my own ship!"

"By the way, Whitebeard, remember to tell me when you die. Since you are Ace's father, I will buy you a big firework!"

"You little brat, you want me dead so much, right?" White Beard cursed angrily.

Xia Chen did not continue to reply him, but looked at the people on the boat and said: "What do you mean, do you still want to stay here for a while?"

All of them came here together just now, not only because they had just rescued Ace and wanted to say hello, but also because they also wanted to meet the strongest man in the world, Whitebeard, one of the Four Emperors!

Oh, that's not right! He shouldn't be the strongest in the world now. The strongest in the world now should be...

They couldn't help but turn their attention to Xia Chen.

Now that we've met and chatted for almost the entire day, it's time to go back and take a rest.

During this period of time, I had stayed in Impel Down for a long time, and then I rushed to Marinford without stopping. Then I experienced a high-intensity battle.

The body is tired and the mind is even more tired!

"Let's go, let's go back!" Luffy said, then looked at Ace.

"Ace, next time we meet I will definitely be one step closer to becoming the Pirate King, so don't let me knock you away!"

"Tsk! Luffy, what nonsense are you talking about? You're dreaming in broad daylight, right? Have you forgotten the repeated defeats between you and me?"

"You need to work hard to improve your strength, otherwise it will be meaningless if I defeat you too easily next time we meet!"

"Huh? Idiot Ace, what did you say?" Luffy immediately quit after hearing that. He rolled up his sleeves and wanted to fight with Ace right now.

"Stupid Luffy, is there something wrong with what I said?" Ace also rolled up his sleeves, and then the two of them put their heads together, staring at each other with big eyes.

Everyone: .

Marco held his forehead helplessly and said, "As expected, like brother, like brother. Really!"

Then he walked over and grabbed Ace's neck and pulled Ace back. Luffy on the opposite side was also grabbed by Sanji's neck and pulled back as well.

But even after being pulled apart, the two men still glared at each other and kept uttering harsh words.

(??へ?? ╬)!

"Just give me... stop!"

A roar came from both sides at the same time, followed by two "clang" sounds.

Marco and Nami raised their fists at the same time and looked at Ace and Luffy with unfriendly eyes.

After being punched, Ace and Luffy both became quiet, lowering their heads and not daring to speak.

"In that case, let's go first!"

Xia Chen greeted everyone again, then turned around and jumped onto the Proverbs next to the White Whale. Then several people returned to the Proverbs one by one.

The Proverbs slowly set sail, and Luffy waved to Ace on the White Whale and said, "Ace, goodbye! Don't get caught again next time we meet!"

Ace's slightly sentimental mood immediately disappeared after hearing Luffy's words. He looked at Luffy with a frown and said, "You little brat, if you don't know how to speak, don't speak!"

Whitebeard looked at Xia Chen who was going away and shouted, "Xia Chen, thank you so much for this time! If you need any help from our pirate group in the future, just let us know!"

"Okay!" Xia Chen responded with a smile.

Then he watched as the distance between them and the White Whale grew farther and farther, and finally turned to look at the people on the ship...
