Chapter 232 - 232: The Commander of the God Knights Kneels! Conqueror's Haki Clash! Rayleigh: This is Roger’s Conqueror's Haki!

Sabaody Archipelago, a storm was brewing.

Thick, layered dark clouds covered the sky.

Boom!

Rumble!

Roaring sounds continuously exploded from the No. 13 Mangrove.

The fierce battle between the Air Force girls and the God's Knights caused the earth to crack, the amusement park to collapse, and the fighting was extremely intense.

"What a terrifying battle this is!"

"Those girls… why are they so strong?"

"They're just wet-behind-the-ears brats, yet they possess such powerful abilities!"

"Even the adults of the God's Knights can't take them down for a while…"

"Hey, look, that Princess Vivi of Alabasta, her… her ability is…?"

"Is the Princess of Alabasta also a Devil Fruit user? And that ability is…?"

"No mistake! That's the ability of the Flying Big Pirate Shiki the Golden Lion, who died not long ago!"

The shock and uproar from the Celestial Dragon guards and marines rose and fell, ceaselessly.

"Hey, look, that man is about to make his move!"

Under the awestruck gaze of the marines,

Roland stepped through the void, descending step by step.

Behind him, Thor and Perona walked elegantly in sync.

Finally, the three of them landed about thirty meters away from Figarland Garling.

"Hehehe, this Saint already has a complete grasp of your ability. If you want to attack the Commander of the God Knights, you'll have to get past this Saint first!"

The Absorption Man God Knight sneered repeatedly, confidently blocking Roland's path.

"Is that so? Then let me test your absorption limit!"

Roland said calmly.

Boom!

Rumble!

Crimson-black lightning surged from Roland's body.

Like a tide, it swept towards the Absorption Man God Knight.

"Hahaha, useless, useless! Watch me drain you dry!"

The Absorption Man God Knight spread his arms, activating his ability to full power, intending to receive all the crimson-black lightning.

However...

In just the next second,

the expression on the Absorption Man God Knight's face changed, his usual arrogant smile gone.

In its place was deep shock, horror, and disbelief.

Because he had never absorbed energy of such high purity.

The brilliant golden lightning he had absorbed from Roland before was less than one percent of his capacity.

Moreover, that lightning energy could be quickly decomposed and converted into his own power.

But...

At this very moment,

each bolt of crimson-black lightning released by Roland was more than ten times more terrifying than the previous brilliant golden lightning.

Coupled with this enormous output, in just a few breaths, his absorption capacity was filled halfway.

Even though he still possessed the power to decompose, the speed of decomposition and conversion was far slower than the absorption.

"Ahhh, no… I can't…!"

When his capacity reached ninety percent, the Absorption Man God Knight immediately panicked.

"Is that all it takes for you to be unable?"

Rolin scoffed.

"Old Five, retreat quickly!!!"

Commander of the God Knights Figarland Garling roared.

However, it was already too late.

The Absorption Man God Knight's body swelled like a balloon.

Finally, there was a loud bang.

The Absorption Man God Knight was burst open by the immense lightning energy.

His entire body exploded, leaving no bones, becoming the third Celestial Dragon to perish here.

"Ah!"

"Ah ah ah!"

"This… this kind of thing…"

"Hey, hey, hey, you're joking, right?!"

"A God Knight… a God Knight has fallen!"

"Oh my God! How many disrespectful things does this man intend to do?!"

The Celestial Dragon guards and Marine soldiers were all utterly shocked and horrified.

"You damn brat!!!"

Commander of the God Knights Figarland Garling gripped the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand.

He didn't care about the life or death of an idiot Celestial Dragon like Roswald.

However, witnessing his subordinate being killed in front of him, the fury in his heart erupted like a volcano.

Killing his subordinate in front of him was a provocation and trampling of his authority.

"Heh heh heh, Moon Head, try this!"

Perona pointed her slender fingers repeatedly.

Pop~

Pop~

Pop~

Three white ghosts appeared out of thin air.

As Perona pointed her slender fingers, they shot towards Figarland Garling in unison.

Figarland Garling subconsciously tried to defend with Haki.

However…

The ghosts passed right through his body.

Figarland Garling's tall figure stiffened.

The next second.

Under the horrified gazes of all the Marines and Celestial Dragon guards present.

Figarland Garling slowly knelt on one knee.

Even a powerful Commander of the God Knights, before understanding the characteristics of the Ghost-Ghost Fruit, was subjected to a first-sight kill.

However, Figarland Garling's strength was indeed not bad.

Despite being hit by the Negative Hollow, he wasn't completely negative, merely kneeling on one knee.

And the next second, a powerful Haki black flash erupted from his body, forcibly breaking through and liberating the negative power.

"Damn it!!!"

The furious roar of the Commander of the God Knights exploded beneath the sky.

Even though he only knelt for a very short time.

But for Figarland Garling, this was an unforgettable humiliation.

Because since birth, he had never knelt before anyone.

Even the Five Elders, who held the highest authority, were not worthy of him kneeling.

However…

This first kneel was actually given to a pirate.

A mere mortal ant, the most humble and lowly being.

"Unforgivable!"

Figarland Garling murmured in a deep voice.

Sizzle sizzle~

Black and red lightning flickered around him incessantly.

"You have committed the most unforgivable sin in the world! Now, kneel before me!!!"

Boom!!!

As the Commander of the God Knights's furious roar fell.

A powerful Conqueror's Haki suddenly erupted.

The innate aura of a king, awakened in only one in a million people.

As the king of God Valley and the Commander of the God Knights, Figarland Garling naturally possessed it.

Not only did he possess it, but the intensity of this Conqueror's Haki was absolutely extraordinary.

After all, the Figarland family has Red Hair, the most domineering man in the sea…

As Red Hair's elder, Figarland Garling's Conqueror's Haki would naturally not be weak.

It was much stronger than Doflamingo or Chinjao.

But compared to Red Hair, it was still far inferior.

Similarly, it was naturally incomparable to the top-tier Conqueror's Haki of the former Pirate King Roger.

Boom!

Just as Figarland Garling unleashed his furious Conqueror's Haki.

Rolin took a step forward.

In an instant.

The world's colors changed.

An extremely powerful king's Haki surged out from Rolin's body.

The terrifying aura swept across the entire area, instantly overwhelming Figarland Garling's Conqueror's Haki.

Black and red Conqueror's Haki lightning struck the sky and split the earth, wherever it passed, people fell in droves.

The Marine soldiers and Celestial Dragon guards who were forming ranks on the outskirts of the No. 13 Mangrove battlefield, at this moment, without prior agreement, rolled their eyes back, completely losing consciousness.

…

…

At this moment.

Off the coast of Sabaody Archipelago.

"Hey, hey, hey, this…"

Elite Vice Admiral Fire Mountain suddenly looked up, his usual smile gone, his face filled with shock.

"There's no mistake, this is a clash of Conqueror's Haki!"

Vice Admiral Doberman, his face covered in scars, gritted his teeth.

"Two Conqueror's Haki clashing, one of them is exceptionally powerful!"

Vice Admiral Onigumo took a deep breath, forcing down the shock in his heart.

"Is this the Conqueror's Haki of the Five Emperors Rolin? It truly is as terrifying as the rumors say!"

Elite Vice Admiral Squirrel was inexplicably shocked.

"Vice Admirals!"

"Oh oh oh oh!"

"That is… that monster is…"

"There's no mistake! That monster is the Air Force's third-in-command!"

"The teapot pet raccoon dog with a bounty over a billion!!!"

"That monster has transformed!!!"

The Marine soldiers' shouts, rising and falling, brought the Vice Admirals' attention back.

"It seems we guessed right!"

"The Air Force's ship has been subjected to some kind of ability!"

"Even if we saw their ship with our naked eyes, we wouldn't recognize it!"

"Never mind the rest, we have a tough battle to fight too!"

All the Marine Headquarters Vice Admirals had solemn expressions.

"Hehehehe."

On the Sabaody coast, the fifty-meter-tall monster-shaped Shukaku laughed loudly.

"You detestable Marines, very good, you have successfully angered this old man, I won't let you off easily anymore!"

Wind Release Bullet!!!

Wind Release Bullet!!!

Tailed Beast Ball (Small)!!!

Wind Release Bullet!!!

…

…

Sabaody Archipelago.

No. 33 Mangrove and several surrounding mangrove areas.

At this moment, it was utterly silent!!!

Under the extreme deterrent of Rolin's Conqueror's Haki, apart from the girls.

The only ones still standing in this area were the eight members of the God's Knights led by Figarland Garling.

And a legendary great pirate observing from the shadows — Dark King Rayleigh!!!

"How… how is this possible… this Haki that I'm so familiar with… this aura of Conqueror's Haki… this is… this is Roger's Conqueror's Haki!!!"
