Chapter 73: Rocks D.
Xebec Joins the Rocks Pirates
"This idiot!"
"Fool!"
"He's dead for sure!"
Leiman, however, didn't know that his actions were seen as nothing but a joke by others.
A purple blur flashed past.
Hades, holding Nightmare in his left hand, easily blocked Leiman's punch.
Before Leiman could react, Hades's right hand, like the sharp claws of a giant dragon, directly grabbed his head.
Dark purple Haki covered Hades's right hand, flowing continuously.
A terrifying force clamped down on Leiman's head, giving him no chance to resist.
The intense pain made Leiman feel as if his head was about to split open.
A surge of fear towards death welled up in his heart.
"What gave you the illusion that I can't use Haki?"
A calm voice sounded in Leiman's ear.
Strong Hand Skull Splitter!
Hades didn't hesitate.
He exerted force with his arm, accompanied by the Inch Force of Baji Quan and the Emission of Armament Haki, directly invading Leiman's body.
Boom!
Leiman's head exploded like a watermelon dropped from the sky, sending blood and brain matter splattering everywhere.
The splattered liquid was directly annihilated by the Power of Death attached to Hades's body, preventing any impurity from touching him.
Even on Hades's hand, the foreign matter was completely eroded away by the Power of Death.
This display once again shocked everyone.
Although they had guessed that Hades had Awakened Haki, they hadn't expected his mastery of Haki to reach such a level.
Haki Emission and Internal Destruction were techniques many of their Cadres hadn't learned.
The Internal Destruction Technique was unattainable for most people.
Yet, Hades had already skillfully mastered it.
In terms of pure Armament Haki application, Hades could rank among the top three in the Rocks Pirates.
Even some of the Kings could only achieve Haki flow and Emission.
The Haki Internal Destruction Technique is relatively advanced and not very important for some people.
This is because it can only unleash its greatest power in the hands of a martial artist or close-combat fighter.
If the enemy is holding a weapon, they won't be affected by Haki Internal Destruction because they haven't been struck directly.
And if one is holding a weapon oneself, this technique cannot be practically applied.
To be honest, it's only somewhat effective against a beast-transformed Kaido or martial artists.
Against a Swordsman like Shiki, it's quite useless.
Of course, if one manages to land a hit, that's another story.
Suddenly, Hades turned his head.
A familiar loud laughter that everyone recognized came closer.
Thump!
Thump!
As the sound of footsteps approached, the hearts of many Pirates pounded along with them.
Simultaneously, the terrifying presence echoed in their ears, bringing immense pressure that made people tremble and feel dread.
Endless presence and Haki burst forth wildly along with the laughter!
The bright midday instantly turned incredibly dark.
Black clouds formed a funnel, as if about to swallow the entire Island.
Rocks D.
Xebec, the World's Strongest, has arrived!
Having been in this World for so long, this was the first time Hades felt such terrifying pressure, one that could already cause physical damage.
The ground trembled and cracked.
Pirates fell to their knees, unable to stand up.
Rocks was nearly three meters tall, with octopus-like red hair, full of unrestrained dominance.
Just this one person, relying on his Strength, suppressed the entire World.
He was seen walking step by step, his arms crossed, proudly sweeping his gaze over everyone, finally fixing his eyes on Hades.
Then, targeted Conqueror's Haki fell upon Hades.
A terrifying aura, containing an undeniable, overbearing Will to swallow the World.
Facing the impact of Conqueror's Haki, how could Hades show weakness?
Similarly, an aura erupted from within Hades's body, a terrifying aura like the Netherworld Hell, furthermore containing the Will to be born a King.
Hades is the Crown Prince, the future King of the Kronos Kingdom! The Destiny of the Tartarus Family!
Bearing the mission of a Kingdom's future and holding the power of life and death over countless people, how could he show weakness?
In terms of aura and ambition, Hades has never lost to anyone.
Unfortunately, he was facing Rocks D.
Xebec, the current World's Strongest.
Hades's aura was completely suppressed, suppressed in every aspect.
However, surprisingly, Hades actually withstood Rocks D.
Xebec's aura suppression.
Although he could only defend his own small area, he still blocked Rocks D.
Xebec's further oppression, standing firm like an ancient castle in a storm.
Rocks didn't press further.
Seeing that Hades had withstood his aura, a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes, and he withdrew his aura.
"Hades, this should be our first meeting. From now on, you are a member of the Rocks Pirates."
Rocks directly confirmed the matter.
"I don't seem to have a reason to refuse. It took quite some effort to get here!"
Hades chuckled softly.
Facing Rocks, he didn't seem to feel much pressure.
This scene appeared somewhat strange in the eyes of others.
A small number of people, however, knew that the Son of Jaeger had completely gained the approval of Captain Rocks.
"Hades, huh?"
Hades's name became known to everyone through Rocks's mouth.
Regardless, from today onwards, Hades officially became a member of the Rocks Pirates.
"This is Titan. Joining together is fine, right?"
"More than willing."
Rocks could naturally see Titan's Potential, even more outstanding than the one beside Jaeger.
Why not be happy to have one more Top Tier Combatant?
With two more Admirals, the success rate of that plan in the future will be higher.
Without waiting for the Rocks Pirates' official recruitment period, Hades joined the Rocks Pirates.
After all, Hades's performance had already met the standard in Rocks's heart.
Like a drop of water, Hades quietly integrated into the Rocks Pirates.
There was no welcoming ceremony, it was both calm and not calm.
Hachinosu Island was constantly in a state of revelry.
