Chapter 159: Battle with Roger (End)
"Boom!!!"
A sound resounded through the sky.
People around covered their ears with their hands.
This is to block the impact of the loud noise on their ears.
A bottomless hole suddenly opened up at the focal point of the violent collision between Roger and Jin An.
It was so deep that it seemed to be able to touch the other side of the world. Its appearance brought with it destructive power, leaving a considerable mark on the hard ground, spreading for thousands of meters around.
Accompanied by the formation of a large hole.
The sea water evaporated instantly.
The island was annihilated without a trace under this surging energy.
The sky and the earth seemed to have lost their color, and time froze at this moment.
The strong wind roared like the horn of the end of the world, blowing the sea water flying and spraying in the sky, forming an extremely spectacular scene.
In this storm, ballast and island mud mixed with sea water to create an apocalyptic scene.
They scattered uncontrollably, like scattered stars, conveying the terrifying power of the collision to the outside world.
The pirates who witnessed this scene had their roaring and laughing faces frozen, and their voices that were used for plundering and drunkenness came to an abrupt halt.
They let the sea salt wet their long hair and clothes, and they remained motionless, as if they had lost their souls.
And those scouts sent by the kingdom.
Their courage and wit became meaningless at that moment. Their legs felt as heavy as lead and they could not move at all. They could only witness the unprecedented event happening before their eyes.
The world around was dead silent, as if all life was swallowed up in this endless silence.
In the distance, the unaffected spectators, whether they were the birds in the clouds or the people watching from afar, were all stunned with shock and speechless.
What they saw will become a memory that they will never forget.
A legend of power and destruction is being forged in their hearts.
After leaving here, I must tell everyone around me about this scene.
Although they couldn't do such a thing, being able to witness this scene with their own eyes was enough to make their friends envious.
On the battlefield full of chaos and destruction, a unique scene came into everyone's eyes.
I saw a tall figure, like a god of war, slowly descending from the air.
His arm held the other man steady.
These two people were the ones involved in the earth-shaking battle just now.
Roger stood firm on his feet, a smug smile on his face.
Even the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth could not conceal the pride in his heart.
He laughed loudly, his voice echoing over the battlefield: "Okay, okay, your strength is among the best in this world."
His words not only showed recognition of Jin'an's strength, but also satisfaction and excitement about this battle.
However, as soon as the laughter died down, Roger suddenly started coughing violently.
Every cough seemed to use up every bit of strength in his body, making people worry for him.
Obviously, this battle put a great strain on his body and even made his latent illness worse.
"Ahem... Unfortunately, the domineering aura is still a little lacking."
Even though he was not in good physical condition, Roger's tone was still firm.
"Moreover, if you can awaken the fruit, I guess no one in this world will be able to break through your body's defenses."
This is not only an encouragement to Jinan, but also a high recognition of the other party's potential.
Jinan stood amidst the ruins of the battlefield.
The clothes on his body were in tatters.
Bright red blood dripped from the corner of his mouth down his chin, dyeing the sea water that had filled up red.
Although his body was covered with scars, the surface wounds were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, demonstrating his almost abnormal recovery ability.
But even so, there was still a hint of paleness and weakness in his expression.
Obviously, the recovery of internal injuries is far slower than that of external injuries.
His breathing was panting and his voice was low, as if every word was squeezed out with effort.
"It's not that easy to awaken the ability of the animal-type fruit."
There was a hint of wry smile in his words, as if he felt helpless compared to his own abilities.
"The progress of improving domineering power has also slowed down."
He muttered softly, his fingers unconsciously stroking the rapidly healing wounds, as if lamenting the difficulty of this journey.
"There is absolutely no comparison with a pervert like you."
Jinan raised his head, his eyes shining with determination under the sunlight.
He looked straight at Roger, his pursuit of powerful strength undisguised.
Although his words were self-deprecating, his voice did not sound decadent but rather full of provocation and fighting spirit.
Roger turned around and no longer looked at Jin An, but looked deeply into the unknown distance.
Beneath that blue ocean, there are countless unrevealed secrets hidden.
And those places on the distant red earth continent that he has not yet set foot on.
When he spoke again, his voice clearly echoed over the sea.
"Jin'an, do you have any dreams?"
Jin An nodded instinctively, then shook his head, his eyes flashing with complex expressions.
"I just want to live peacefully in this world with my family and friends."
His words are plain and simple, but they are the simplest wishes.
“It would be great if we could do something within our power in the process.”
Roger was stunned, as if Jin An's words touched the long-dormant memories and emotions in his heart.
He then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, it seems like I had the same dream when I went out to sea..."
His laughter carried a kind of nostalgia for the past and infinite comfort for the future.
“Do your best in whatever you want to do.”
His voice carried a kind of expectation conveyed to Jinan,
“There are many things I can’t do anymore…”
At this point, Roger's smile was filled with helplessness.
"I'll leave everything up to you."
When he said this, his eyes were fixed on Jin An again, as if he was entrusting him with an important task.
"While you are protecting your family and friends, you can see more of the world."
Roger's tone softened.
“The world isn’t that bad.”
Jinan stood there, listening intently.
His heart was deeply touched at this moment, and he had stronger expectations for his future and this world.
Roger's figure looked particularly desolate in the pale moonlight, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The bloodstains looked particularly bright under the moonlight.
He tilted his head slightly, a trace of fatigue showing on his face.
"Let's go back. This place is starting to get noisy."
There was a heaviness in that voice.
Those years of struggling in this world are just a passing cloud.
Now I just want to find a warm corner and have a good rest.
"You should still have the strength to take me back."
Jinan nodded.
"I still have some energy left."
Roger smiled gently, he knew that he could leave it to Jin An without any worries.
Then, Jin An supported Roger and walked slowly towards home, and the backs of the two gradually blended into the night.
