Another earth-shattering roar!
Right in midair…
Elliot’s punch and Garp’s fist collided once again!
A powerful aura instantly exploded between their fists!
Visible rings of shockwaves appeared in midair.
Seeing this, the Marines in the base felt their minds reel.
They held their breath, completely overwhelmed, their pupils trembling as they stared at the sky…
Because…
Above the thick, dark clouds that originally blanketed the sky, rings of shockwaves had also appeared.
It looked exactly as if they were formed by the continuous collision of the two men’s fists!
Especially with the clash of this latest punch, a massive hole was torn straight through the clouds!
It was completely…
Like two monsters fighting!
Many people’s bodies even began to tremble as they watched the two in the sky, especially seeing the Marine Hero’s cape fluttering in the shockwaves, and staring at the word “Justice” emblazoned across it!
And looking even more closely at the young man in the trainee Marine uniform directly opposite the hero.
In the middle of the base, Hood saw this scene and, for some reason, remembered the young, reckless Garp who was an absolute battle maniac.
Back then, Garp also frequently fought against Fleet Admiral Kong.
Hood subconsciously fell into a daze, looking at the scene before him as if looking at the past, before he couldn’t help but frown.
“Garp!”
The surrounding Marines were still in shock, but the fire in their hearts was inexplicably ignited.
A recruit…
A trainee Marine from the East Blue, known as the weakest sea, was fighting Vice Admiral Garp to this extent.
Especially seeing the word “Justice” and that recruit uniform appearing at the same time, the hot blood in all the Marines’ bodies instantly surged and boiled.
*Get stronger!*
*I want to get stronger too!*
Suddenly!
Garp burst into laughter.
“Not using your full strength?
Are you looking down on me, Marine?!”
Following that!
The Marine Hero suddenly withdrew his fist, but immediately, with a *buzz*!
Garp’s fist was inexplicably covered in a layer of pitch black, even accompanied by black lightning wrapping around it.
Seeing this, Hood’s expression drastically changed.
He turned to the Marines beside him.
“Go down immediately and notify the troops to assemble!
Evacuate everyone around those two bastards!
Have all warships move away from the port at once!”
After saying that, Hood gritted his teeth and glared furiously at Garp.
While cursing the old bastard under his breath, he hurriedly took out the Den Den Mushi from his coat, one that only a Base Commander possessed.
“Heh!” Garp grinned, looking at Elliot, who had no intention of dodging.
“I won’t be responsible if you get hurt next, kid!”
Elliot’s slightly curly hair swayed gently in the aura Garp unleashed.
“If I dodge, I feel like the people below will be in danger, so this is fine.”
The smile remained on Garp’s face, but the look in his eyes as he watched Elliot grew increasingly appreciative.
“Don’t make me sound like some reckless maniac!”
The moment his voice fell!
The two landed on the ground at the same time.
But the instant their toes touched the ground!
Garp’s pitch-black fist blasted out!
And Elliot leaned forward, taking a step out to meet him head-on!
The Marines, who had gotten busy after receiving Hood’s orders, suddenly stopped what they were doing at this moment, all subconsciously looking over again.
But just as they turned their heads…
Bang!!
Rushing toward them head-on was a shockwave wrapped in dust and rubble!
Many people were instantly swept up into the air by the blast, and countless scattered debris was also carried by the shockwave, flying all over the sky!
Bang!
But the next moment!
Accompanied by an earthquake-like tremor throughout the entire Marine base, the shockwave violently collapsed!
Countless people subsequently fell to the ground.
But before everyone could react…
Bang!
The base shuddered again!
And this time, it was accompanied by an explosion!
Everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look!
They saw the dust cloud where Elliot and Garp stood violently dissipate.
Their fists were planted on each other’s cheeks—a mutual punch!
But what truly made everyone’s breathing quicken was…
The two massive, cracked craters that appeared beneath their feet.
Bang!
But also at this instant!
The entire base violently shuddered once more.
With a roar, the cracked craters beneath their feet expanded and collapsed again.
All buildings within the radius completely crumbled, including the Marine building.
And what made everyone’s hearts pound even harder was the ocean surrounding the entire base!
The massive waves on the ocean, already churning from their battle, had been continuously crashing against the giant walls surrounding the base!
But at this split second!
A giant wave several meters high violently appeared, crashing fiercely onto the warships.
The smaller supply warships capsized instantly.
Even the massive multi-masted warships swayed unsteadily, and many Marines aboard fell into the sea.
“Puru puru puru~~ Puru puru puru~~”
And just as everything came to a sudden halt, while everyone was either standing trembling or lying on the ground watching those two…
The sound of a Den Den Mushi suddenly rang out.
Inside the base, the Marines close to Elliot and Garp were startled, turning to look at the source of the sound—Vice Admiral Garp’s location.
Garp retracted his fist, spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva to the side, and looked on with clear excitement in his eyes.
But he reached into his coat and pulled out a Den Den Mushi.
Just as he answered it…
“Garp!”
Hearing his old friend’s voice, Garp bared his teeth in a look of disgust and held the Den Den Mushi a little further away.
“Don’t pretend you can’t hear me!
I already know what you’re doing over at Hood’s!
Just how far are you going to take this nonsense before you’re satisfied?!
How many times is this now that you’ve destroyed a Marine base on a whim?!”
Hearing this, Garp’s expression turned serious, and he replied with absolute righteous confidence, “I forgot!”
“Shut up!
You senile old fool who only knows how to eat rice crackers and talk with your fists!”
The Den Den Mushi vividly mimicked the expression of the person on the other end of the line.
“Stop your reckless behavior right now!
Apologize to Hood and return to Headquarters immediately!
Someone will take Krieg to prison!”
And just as Garp was about to speak, a furious Vice Admiral Hood marched over.
Just as Garp turned his head…
Hood snatched the Den Den Mushi from Garp’s hand.
The next moment…
A punch!
Bang!
Garp was sent flying straight into the nearby ruins, and Hood growled, “You old bastard!”
Then, he turned to look at Elliot.
Seeing Vice Admiral Hood’s expression, Elliot glanced around and said, “If you need me to pay for the damages, I will.
But I don’t have any money right now, so you might have to wait a while.”
Hearing this, Hood’s expression blanked for a moment before he burst into a chuckle.
He pointed at Garp, who was standing up from the rubble.
“All the compensation for this place will be billed to that old bastard.”
With that said, he looked down at the Den Den Mushi.
“Fleet Admiral Sengoku, the kid is right in front of me.
I just punched Garp away.”
The Den Den Mushi’s expression turned serious as it stared at Elliot.
“I already have a general understanding of your situation.
You no longer need to stay here in the East Blue with Hood.
Elliot, are you willing to come to the Marine Headquarters Academy?”
Elliot looked at the Den Den Mushi.
Although he hadn’t transmigrated that long ago, he had already accepted this magical little communication device, so he wasn’t surprised at all.
He simply asked calmly, “How much better will the benefits be compared to what I have now…?”
