Devil fruit in comics

Chapter 255 High-profile action

Amidst the intense gunshots and glass shattering, Roger let go of the middle-aged man's neck.

Before the middle-aged man's body fell to the ground, Roger's figure flashed and attacked the security guards and bodyguards.

Although his main purpose of coming here this time was to kill Benedict Johnson, but killing the members of the Johnson family was just a matter of effort for him.

More importantly, killing these people can make other people more aware of the consequences of offending him.

Although these security guards and bodyguards in black suits were soldiers carefully trained by the Johnson family, in front of Roger, they were no different from ordinary people who had not received any training.

In less than a minute, these security guards and bodyguards all fell to the ground.

Get it!

After taking care of these security guards and bodyguards easily, Roger didn't stop, and flew out directly with the Yata mirror, leaving the Johnson Building.

The Johnson family is just an appetizer, but he still has several families to deal with.

In terms of efficiency, it is more convenient to directly use the door fruit's flash to go to the mansions of other families.

But Roger didn't do that.

The reason is simple, Shi Zhan flashed past, not high-profile enough.

His plan today is very simple, that is, to be as high-profile as possible.

For this reason, he even asked Benedict's blond secretary to call the police.

As for whether Director Gordon would send someone to arrest him, he didn't care at all.

When he decided to do this, he had considered how to deal with these messes.

Taking a step back, even if he can't fix this, there's no way the Gotham police can catch him.

Unless it is a superhero such as Superman who takes the shot, otherwise, there is basically no one who can catch him.

He flew arrogantly through the sky of Gotham, and soon attracted the attention of pedestrians on the street.

A man shining with golden light flew through the city like a superman, and it was difficult not to attract attention.

Although the effect of the golden light is a little bit worse in the daytime now, it doesn't affect people's discovery of him.

After leaving the Johnson Building, Roger soon came to his second destination today.

Like the Johnson family, he is now in the headquarters building of an old family in Gotham.

It's no different from killing Benedict.

After breaking into the chairman's office of the building and finding the head of the family, Roger sent the head of the family to hell without any hesitation.

After doing this, he asked the secretary in the office to call the police.

But what is very interesting is that the personal secretary of the head of the family is not a young woman with a protruding figure, but a man.

To be precise, a young black man.

You don't need to ask to know that this black man is definitely not from this family.

After the black male secretary reported to the police, Roger didn't hesitate and started heading to the headquarters building of the third family.

In this way, like a perverted killer who specializes in hunting down the leaders of the old Gotham family, he kept going to the headquarters buildings or manors of other families.

In less than an hour, more than ten family leaders died in his hands.

After getting rid of these family leaders, Roger temporarily stopped his revenge.

At this time, Gotham's police station has become a mess.

From the beginning of an hour, they kept receiving calls to the police, but they were all calls from various families.

The report to the police was exactly the same, that is, the leaders of their family, those rich and famous people in Gotham, were killed one by one.

At first, Gordon thought it was just an accident.

However, when the second alarm call came, he realized something was wrong.

Just call the police.

After all, when someone is killed, it is normal to call the police.

But the problem is that these calls to the police were all made at the scene of the murder, but in front of the murderer Roger.

This is no ordinary abnormality.

Although some perverted killers will actively provoke the police after killing people, and deliberately disclose some information to the police.

But like Roger, there is no one who speaks his name openly.

There are many serial killers in the United States, and some of them are perverted against humanity.

But even so, no serial killer would disclose his name openly like Roger, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he did these things.

Gordon was not ignorant of Roger.

Not long after Roger extorted $[-] million from Carmine, Gordon noticed Roger's existence.

However, because Roger was still following the rules, Gordon didn't pay much attention to him.

However, it never occurred to Gordon that if Roger didn't make a move, it would be such an important case.

Now Gordon is running around the city in a police car, heading to one crime scene after another.

While Gordon was busy going to the scene of the crime, Roger had returned to Bruce's Batcave with the ability of the door fruit.

At this time, Bruce has put on an expensive hand-made custom suit, waiting for his return in the Batcave.

Bruce was slightly relieved to see that Roger came back with the ability to flash in space instead of flying back like a glowing Superman.

Although he didn't leave the Batcave, he has been paying attention to Roger's actions in downtown Gotham.

After seeing Roger flying around the city in a high profile, Bruce frowned involuntarily.

He thought that Roger's revenge this time would not be small, but he didn't expect that Roger would do it so high-profile.

As soon as Roger came out of the green space of the door fruit, Bruce said to him: "You are so high-profile, what are you going to do next?"

"Don't tell me that you plan to leave Gotham next."

By hacking into the Gotham Police Department's network, Bruce discovered that Roger has now boarded the Gotham Police Department's most wanted warrant.

As long as the prosecutor's side passes, Roger will become the most wanted criminal in the city.

"Don't worry, I have no plans to leave Gotham yet."

"As for how I'm going to deal with these messes, you just have to watch patiently."

Of course Roger knew what kind of mess his high-profile actions would leave behind.

However, he had already figured out how to deal with it.

Speaking of this, I have to talk about the gangster that Bruce and Gordon have always wanted to completely eradicate, but they have never been able to eradicate.

In terms of evidence, Bruce and Gordon are enough to send these gang leaders to the electric chair or get them a long-term prison sentence of hundreds of years.

However, until now, not many gang leaders have been sent to prison by them.

It wasn't that Bruce and Gordon weren't trying hard enough, it was that they were doing it the wrong way.

Strictly speaking, their approach does have merit.

But the problem is, they ignore a very important issue.

That is, America is a capitalist country.

In such a country, the power of capital sometimes overrides the law.

This is a root problem, not a problem that a superhero or super team can solve.

As long as this root is still there, no matter what Bruce and Gordon do, these gangsters will spring up one after another like mushrooms after rain.

The way Roger wants to deal with his hands is actually similar to the way those gang leaders use to escape crime.

He has the funds to buy people.

He also has channels for buying people.

Even if he doesn't have these funds and channels, as long as he wants, Carmine, Penguin and others will be happy to be the middleman for him and bridge him.

As long as these things are done at the official level, even if he is really a murderer, he will not be wanted.

Because this arrest warrant cannot be reviewed at all.

Prosecutors won't pass warrants, judges won't convict him, and Gotham police don't have the strength to catch him.

And even if the police in Gotham can catch him, so what.

The most he can do is to pay a generous bail, and then he can come out of the police station with a pat on the ass.

Of course, he could bribe those officials, and so could the people from the Court of Owls.

Those families whose leaders he killed were also inextricably linked with Gotham's official system.

But the problem is, when the head of the family dies, and the target is a powerful superpower like Roger, whether the relationship network established by these families can play a role is still a problem.

It is not uncommon to see such a situation, no matter which country or city it is in.

Under the circumstances that may threaten his own safety, Roger is not worried that the officials and connections behind those guys will make such a choice.

After all, what he has left in the outside world now is the image of a powerful superpower who can do whatever he wants.

As long as there is no 100% certainty of arresting or killing Roger, it is not difficult to guess how the officials and umbrellas behind those families will choose.

In this way, Bruce can actually do it if he wants to.

It's just that the education he received since he was a child made him unable to think of it, or in other words, even if he thought of it, he would not do it.

But Roger was different.

He was a stranger, a stranger in the true sense.

He doesn't care whether Gotham will develop in a more extreme direction because of him.

What he is doing now, in simple terms, is no different from completely turning the tables.

He doesn't want to play by other people's rules.

Now that he decided to take revenge, he simply turned the table and followed his own rules.

Only in this way, the inextricable relationship network of the Owl Court cannot exert its real effect.

In the final analysis, the Court of Owls is just an alliance.

Roger didn't believe that in the face of such a huge threat of death, the people in the owl court could still stand firmly together.

Even if only one or two people make a choice and intend to succumb to him.

He could follow these people to the headquarters of the Owl Court, and then uproot the Owl Court.

Back at Bruce's Batcave, Roger sat down in an ergonomic chair and patiently waited for the next development.

Although he caused the commotion outside, the subsequent development of the matter was not under his single-handed control.

He just needs to wait patiently, and the others in the owl court should be able to make a choice.

Although he was in Bruce's Batcave, Roger didn't forget to pay attention to Selina and the restaurant.

What he did this morning was indeed very high-profile, but if the Court of Owls planned to confront him head-on, maybe these guys would do something crazy.

Like dropping a bomb in a restaurant or something.

To be on the safe side, he sensed the surroundings of the restaurant with a domineering sense of knowledge.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual around the restaurant, he used Bruce's equipment to monitor the situation in several blocks near the restaurant with the power of technology.

For his approach, Bruce didn't say anything, and was even a little relieved.

After all, judging from this move, Roger still cares about the safety of Selina and those poor residents.

Time passed by little by little, because of Roger's serial killings, Gotham is now extremely lively.

Police cars roared past on the street continuously, and major news media were reporting Roger's news this morning.

Interestingly, although Roger deliberately told the police his name.

However, his name did not appear in the official police announcement and news reports.

Roger was not particularly surprised by this.

Let’s not talk about the news media. In the United States, the news media is not a mouthpiece of the government, but a private institution.

In the absence of any deep hatred, the bosses behind these news media would not mind giving him face and forming a good relationship with him.

As for why the police station didn't announce his name in the notification, this made him a little bit surprised.

But if he guessed right, it should be Gordon's superiors who prevented him from doing so.

As for why Gordon's superiors did this, he didn't know.

After one incident is over, if he has time and interest, he may go to find out the real reason.

But now, he has no such idea for the time being.

The news media and the police don't release his name publicly, but for him, that's not a big problem.

This method, at most, is to deceive ordinary people.

For gang leaders such as Owl Court and Carmine, it is not difficult to know that these things are done by Roger.

Not to mention them in the underground world, even decent companies and families, as long as they have certain channels, they can know that Roger did these things.

Whether ordinary people know that these things are done by themselves, Roger doesn't particularly care.

As long as those powerful people know that these things are done by him.

At noon, Roger stayed in Bruce's manor and had a very good lunch.

After lunch, he didn't stay in the manor. After saying hello to Bruce and Alfred, he returned to the dining room with his door fruit ability.

After a morning of fermentation, those who have the ability to know that these things are done by him should know.

This also means that he can start the second step of his revenge.
