Chapter 256 The End
“It really looks like a demon crawling out of hell.”

Newgate stood up slowly. At this moment, Barrett already possessed the combat capability to rival the world’s top strong men!

Although the opponent’s physique has not yet broken through a limit, but relying on his special display of ghost energy and domineering color, he is absolutely invincible except for the top strong ones in this sea!

“Actually, Barrett used to hate this thing. He was a kid my dad picked up. He was like a machine all day long. Whenever there was a fight, he would go crazy like this!”

Mona sat on the chair with her legs curled up and her hands wrapped around her knees. There was a look of reminiscence in her eyes, and she exposed Barrett’s shortness and ugliness with her mouth, but her tone sounded so smug.

Newgate understood that this was the girl’s way of showing off, so he didn’t take it seriously. Instead, he continued to praise her:

“Then Barrett must have a happy time, actually able to bring rusty machines back to life!”

“Oh my! I didn’t expect Miss Mona to be just like the princess in the fairy tale. Why didn’t I have such luck when I was a kid? I’m obviously not bad at all!”

“Vista, isn’t it unfair for you to be our brother? Besides, you don’t deserve such a good thing. Look at how domineering Barrett is. And then look at you. Tsk tsk tsk, you are not as good as Marco.”

“Hey, hey, hey, Lakeyo, don’t get yourself into trouble by teasing! The best-looking one here is obviously Izo! She’s a real man who can be shyly proposed to by a boy!”

“Qikexiu, duel, Marco, I want to duel with you! Don’t mention that matter to me again, bastard!”

Marco and the others were teasing and joking with each other. On the one hand, it was to alleviate the shock brought by Barrett’s previous indiscriminate outburst, and on the other hand, it was just how they were.

In the absence of external enemies, almost every pirate group is filled with laughter, making fun of each other, and there are no excessive quarrels when they compete with each other. Even the bets are mostly not utilitarian.

The island-shaking competition between Oden and Barrett did shock them, but it did not stop them from discussing fearlessly while staying behind Whitebeard.

Without support, people will move forward by any means necessary!
“Hehehe, you guys are really interesting, much happier than my brothers and sisters at home.”

Mona likes the joyful atmosphere of the pirates. It’s very free, just like when she was a child and was left alone by everyone. But she doesn’t envy or even yearn for it.

The older brothers and sisters in the family grew up in battles, and their father raised them for the purpose of self-reliance, so their emotions are mostly introverted, without any sense of publicity of pirates.

In other words, not much anger.

“Okay, Thatch, let’s prepare for tonight’s dinner. The fight between the two of them will be over soon.”

Looking at the figures of Barrett and Oden fighting with all their strength, one of the two mountains on the island was flattened and the other was blown to pieces. They had no concept of saving their energy at all.

Newgate, who had rich combat experience, had already guessed who the winner would be and had a rough idea of ​​the approximate time when the battle would end, so he directly asked the ship’s chef, Thatch, to prepare food for the two of them in advance.

“No problem, Dad!”

Thatch shouted in the crowd, then took a few logistics personnel and walked towards the cabin of the Moby Dick.

Outside, everyone’s attention was once again attracted by the battle.

…………

“Oden’s Two Swords Ryuu Kirinchi!”

Kozuki Oden’s figure, which was blown into the air, quickly stopped and the scarlet armed color in the darkness began to spread from the Yama in his hand to his body.

He turned around and held Tian Yu Yu Zhan in his hand, and the tops of the handles of the two large swords were placed together, forming a double-edged sword in front of him.

Using his waist to exert force, Kozuki Oden held two swords in one hand, made a half-circle rotation, and suddenly launched the upper blade Enma straight ahead.

“Whoosh——”

The sharp blade broke through the air, carrying the black and red armament color domineering aura and stabbed straight towards Barrett’s figure.

On the opposite side, Barrett, who was standing in place, smiled grimly, with ghostly energy surging around him, armed color covering his whole body, and a pair of dark arms crossed in front of him.

Avoid?

That’s a technique only the weak would use!
A real man doesn’t need to hide! Only by defeating everything head-on can you show the greatest respect to your opponent!

“Boom! Ka————”

The sound of bombs exploding was heard first, followed by the long sound of the earth’s crust breaking.

The tip of Yan Mo’s sword was nailed in the center of Barrett’s crossed arms and could not move forward, but its sharp blade and armed color domineering successfully broke Barrett’s domineering defense and even hurt his skin!

The earth shattered, and the ground behind Barrett was torn apart by a powerful force, and several huge irregular cracks continued to spread backwards.

The sea water in the distance seemed to begin to rise and flood the entire island’s beach. The earth roared and wailed, and some sea water poked out from the cracks in the ground.

This medium-sized island looked like it was about to be sunk.

“One sword, Liu Tian Yu Yu, slashes!”

From high in the sky, Oden, with only a sword left, swooped down, not giving Barrett any chance to breathe. He simply wrapped his domineering color around him and slashed at his arm.

“Click~”

A crisp sound was heard, and the armament color covering that was pierced by a point was broken by Oden’s sword. However, before he could attack again, a hand just caught Yan Mo.

“Evil Ghost Road Whale Fall!”

Retreat an inch!

Barrett’s figure was like a whale falling in the deep sea, unloading his own weight bit by bit while moving backwards. His precise micro-manipulation allowed him to avoid Oden’s finishing blow.

The armed color domineering instantly covered the gap, and the ghost energy wrapped in the domineering color domineering wrapped around the right fist.

He laughed happily, his golden hair dancing in the wind. A dead whale miraculously came back to life at this moment, and rushed madly towards the sea with the raging waves, breaking through the sea level directly and fiercely, and swimming out of the water current close to the sky!

With one punch, Barrett’s fist made close contact with Oden’s abdomen.

“Bang——”

Holding the sword tightly in his hand, Oden was knocked back by Barrett’s punch, his eyes turned white, and he crashed directly into one of the few high mountains that were still standing.

“Boom!”

The mountain collapsed, and Oden’s figure was embedded in the mountain like a cannonball. The impact caused gradually spread, causing the fragile mountainside to break layer by layer, and the top of the mountain fell down, making a huge noise that shook the ground.

“Aha……”

Barrett breathed softly, looked down at his hands, opened and closed them, and clenched them.

His physical strength was greatly depleted, but it was quickly replenished by his strong physique. It was not easy for him to take the slash from the domineering color.

Although Oden’s slash is far inferior to Roger’s “God’s Evasion”, it still has a strong penetrating power. He is a qualified opponent, but it is impossible to defeat him!

Barrett on this side was breathing heavily, but Oden on the other side was even more miserable.

He was embedded deep in the mountainside, with sunlight not even reaching the side facing the mountain. Blood was oozing from the corners of his mouth. He was gasping for breath, and his hands holding the knife were shaking slightly.

“It hurts, Barrett… You’re such a strong opponent!”

“Kaka~”

Oden struggled to pull out his arms and two swords, with a big smile on his face, and he was full of fighting spirit.

If you want to defeat him, it won’t be easy!

“Oden’s Two Swords Style: Taoyuan Hundred Slashes!”

Outside, Barrett looked at the collapsed mountain in the distance. A whistling sound came, and dozens of flying slashes of ten meters or even hundreds of meters came at him. It took only a few seconds to reach him from a distance of a thousand meters.

With his body standing still, Barrett made only one simple movement, protecting his roots with one hand and closing his eyes.

“Ding Ding Ding!”

“Ding Ding Ding!”

“Ding Ding Ding!”

Countless slashes hit his dark body, and his golden hair was covered with armament color, making him look like an indestructible diamond.

A blow that was powerful enough to flatten a mountain only created sparks before deflecting towards the sea.

On the sea, Newgate on the Moby Dick chuckled and redirected some of the blows that might have hit here to other directions.

The sea water was flowing back, and the nearby sea area was covered with countless cracks of varying sizes, as densely packed as a hornet’s nest. Even the tragic deaths of various fish dyed the nearby sea water blood red.

Many sea kings in the distance poked their heads out of the water, looking hungrily at the buffet-like sea, but were so shocked by the fierce battle on the island that they could only stare blankly, not daring to overstep the boundaries in the slightest.

“Great swordsman, so handsome!”

“Flower Sword” Bista looked at the figure who was constantly swinging and slashing with admiration. His figure who was holding back no effort was deeply imprinted in his heart.

The Great Swordsman is a goal that all swordsmen are pursuing! It is also another way to become stronger and reach the pinnacle on the sea!
“You must feel very safe staying behind Barrett, right? Just like Lord Oden, Miss Mona, I envy you so much.”

Izou said as he stood beside Mona wearing the unique costume of Wano Country, his eyes filled with memories and loss.

If he were a woman, he would have fallen hopelessly in love with Lord Oden at that time, right?
He unconsciously tightened the two guns on his waist, but it was also a great honor to follow Lord Oden and become his retainer.

“Well… I feel… safe!”

Mona blushed a little and said that the sense of security Barrett gave people was unparalleled in every aspect.

Many people present focused their attention on the two sides of the battle, except Marco, who walked up to Newgate and asked loudly:

“Dad, did people of your era fight like this?”

The young Xiao Ma Ge was already stunned. He had no idea how he could use Armament Haki to get close to the flying slash of the Thousand Swordsman.

You know, the armament color covering is actually armor, and the armor will be damaged if it is attacked!
He knew that Oden was an opponent who was brutally beaten by his father, but there were at least four more people like Newgate in the entire ocean!
This is the result after the passing of the legendary pirate Shiki the Golden Lion who died in recent years!
What was the wave situation like in his father’s era? A player like him who is a mythical beast type may not even be able to get a number, right?

“Gulala! In my impression, there are only five people who can be as unscrupulous as Barrett. But with the same strength, I’m afraid only Lingling can be as good as Barrett!”

Newgate smiled with emotion, patted Marco’s head gently to show his comfort and encouragement, and said:

“One or two monsters are born in this sea every era. They are all different and extremely flawed. You don’t have to belittle yourselves. If you can take good care of yourself and your brothers and sisters in the future, I will be proud and happy! Gulala~~”

“Don’t worry, dad. I will become stronger as soon as possible so that you can live out your life in peace!”

Marco knew that Newgate had been keeping an eye on the Nasdaq family in the East China Sea, or rather, the island owner named Ross, Mona’s father.

I think his biggest wish is to live out the rest of his life in peace like Ross, right? It would be best if he could have a grandchild.

In response to Marco’s revelation, Newgate smiled and shook his head, rubbed his golden pineapple hair twice, and said proudly:

“A pirate’s life is one of wandering. Even if he retreats to paradise in a cowardly way, he cannot enjoy true stability! To sail with my sons by my side is my greatest wish in this life!”

“Yeah……”

Marco didn’t continue. Wishes and expectations are two different things.

He continued to look at the ongoing battle in the distance and made a decision in his heart.

Maybe it’s time to make some changes. Dad gave them a safe childhood, warm family love and a secure home.

Shouldn’t they also let Dad have a better old age, instead of hiding under his protection as they should?

Marco looked around and prepared to bring a few friends together to discuss the matter.

Beside him, Newgate’s Observation Haki was not just for show. He saw every move of Marco. In response, he just smiled with satisfaction without saying anything.

The battle continues.

But as the frequency of the slashes continues to decrease, the outcome will soon be decided.

About half an hour later, the entire island had been completely changed, with traces of cuts and potholes everywhere.

The two men engaged in a head-on confrontation again, and scattered rocks were flattened during the battle. If the island was not slightly larger, the entire island would have sunk into the sea.

The battle lasted for two full hours before the island was free of the sounds of destruction and flying blows.

When everyone saw the two again, they could only see Barrett, with several scars on his body, swimming towards Moby Dick with Kozuki Oden, whose face was bruised and bloodied, on his back.

“You are seriously injured, Oden. You have several broken bones!”

On the deck, Marco was wrapping bandages around Oden, with the flame of the phoenix emerging in his hand to provide auxiliary treatment. Oden, as the patient, was stuffing food into his mouth without a care in the world.

On the other side, Mona changed her usual style. She first wiped Barrett’s wound with a towel, then carefully tied a bandage around it, and said gently:

“You look so handsome in battle, Barrett!”
