Pirate's Freedom

After Mariejoia woke up, Tata Tot thought about a question.

Is there anything in this world that I really have to do?

It is now the year 1503 of the Hainan calendar. Monkey D. Luffy, who dreamed of becoming the "Pirate King", was born in this year.

Tata Tot didn’t know that in the prophecy, the [Great War] that would divide the world into two in 20 years——

As Whitebeard said, it is the people who bear history who challenge the world.

Or as Im said, it is the end of the 800-year-long God Creation Ceremony.

But he knew that even if the war started with Im on one side and everyone on the other side, Luffy and the others would not be able to win.

And at that time he...

Tata Tot is not sure whether he will have the courage to stand in front of Im again if he pins his hopes on it 20 years later.

……

Above the sea, the sound of shelling never stopped.

boom boom-

A trace of blood appeared in the waves, and then disappeared in the waves.

"Hit!!"

The observing marines shouted excitedly.

"Don't let up—"

Veins popped out on his neck, and the gunner panted while lifting the heavy shells.

"Next shot, turn left at a 47-degree angle!!"

The sailor watched the sea carefully.

"emission!!!"

bang bang bang-

"Ugh!"

A splash of blood splattered on his back, and the stiffened gunner opened his eyes wide. With a shocked expression, he tilted to the right, fell directly from the side of the ship, and fell into the sea with a splash of spray.

bang bang bang! ! !

On the side of the ship at the rear, Macuro, who was all wet, was holding a naval gun and firing continuously in this direction.

Whoosh whoosh—

clang!clang!

"when?!!"

Amidst the sound of bullets hitting metal, the remaining sailors hiding behind the gun mount were in shock.

"The enemy is coming!!!"

The next moment, a hoarse roar sounded on the deck.

……

Ever since Tata Tot really [saw] Im, he had a profound understanding of one thing——

Im very strong, very strong, it is no exaggeration to say that he is so strong that it is different from the painting style of this world.

This kind of power is completely different from the power of [General], [Four Emperors] and Tata Toth.

Even using Qiang to describe Im was a bit one-sided, but he couldn't find a more suitable adjective.

Because he couldn't find a common standard of measurement.

Just like light years and years, it is not a straightforward difference such as length, height, size, distance, but a more essential difference.

The current situation is completely different from the first battle.

Even on the current basis.

Increase the strength, speed, and domineering intensity ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, and Tata Tot still cannot see the possibility of victory.

The antonym of strong is weak.

But compared to Im, the current Tata Tot is not weak, but insignificant.

Deeper than intuition, more obscure than seeing, hearing, color and domineering, a deep and dark inspiration made him understand two things without a doubt -

First, fighting with a physical attitude is no different from saying hello to Im.

Second, the greeting time is one minute. After one minute, when Im finishes saying hello, he will undoubtedly be defeated.

In the face of this deep darkness, the death threat I felt last time in [Hegemony] was just like the clear sky in the afternoon, the cloud shadows cast by the skylight.

——Looking back, the only impression I have is the refreshing cool breeze.

……

"[Murloc Blood Fighting Technique]——"

Dorian rushed out of the sea, the muscles in his arms bulged, and he pulled forward with both hands.

"[Blood flow]——"

Around him, the air mixed with traces of blood mist formed a huge vortex.

"[Kong Lang]!!!"

The surging shock wave fell like a huge wave, and the waves surged towards the gun deck of the battleship.

"[Iwayaki·Itto-ryu]——"

Chewing the tobacco in his mouth, Huo Shaoshan leaned over with a grin and soared into the sky from the deck.

"[Yangyan Slab]!!!"

The broad and thick scorching slash was like a rock wall protruding from the sea, blocking the invading [empty wave].

The slashes and impacts collided, and with the roaring sound, one wave rose higher than the next on the sea.

……

One punch, two punches, three punches... The moment the claws were held, Tata Tot's tail quickly wrapped around Im's waist.

The moment Im's body became unstable, he was pulled in front of Tata Tot's head.

At that moment, the two people were infinitely close and their eyes met each other.

Are the people in front of him reflected in those golden pupils?

No.

There--

Nothing.

The next moment, the air squeezed and collided into plasma. In the extremely dense high-temperature plasma, Tata Tot waved his claws like lightning.

boom……

Dazzling fireballs flashed in the sky, and shock waves far exceeding the speed of sound circulated in the atmosphere...

If it weren't for this blank place, there should be a huge mushroom-shaped smoke cloud slowly rising to an altitude of tens of thousands of meters. Before that, the strong light radiation was enough to destroy all the objects within a few hundred meters in the center of the collision point. Things burn to ashes.

However, this was just the aftermath of the fight. Under the combined action of unimaginable power and speed, the moment the two collided, millions of degrees of high temperature caused thermonuclear ignition.

At this moment, in this space, this kind of thermonuclear ignition occurs more frequently than the strobe of old-fashioned LED lights.

……

Dang-dang-dang-dang-dang! ! !

The sky above a naval battleship with craters on its side and damage everywhere.

The katana in his hand kept colliding with Jinbei's fist wrapped in a water ball. At the same time, the flying squirrel kicked out a series of slashes towards the sea with both feet.

"[Lan Jiao·Tide]!!!"

High waves blocked one side of the battleship like a wall. A small hole was looming in the waves rising on the left.

"it's here!!"

The flying squirrel's heart was shocked, and he forced Jinbei back with a swift slash. He bent his knees in the air, turned around, and slashed downwards quickly.

"Flying Slash·Yang Tu!!"

The slash penetrated the air and split an invisible bubble. The next moment, the brass bullet appeared and was cut open immediately.

In the bullet that was split into two, the green light flashed away, and the hollowed out wave collapsed in an instant, making a "crash" sound on the sea.

……

Another moment passed, and Tata Tot's thoughts were spinning.

Evolve infinitely in 1 minute and go to where Im is.

If you can't do it, you will die.

There is no way to disobey, no way to resist, and death is inevitable.

During the undetectable break in the battle, Tata Tot took a deep breath.

After realizing this deeply, his domineering attitude almost boiled up.

With firm determination and unprecedented pressure.

In just one hundred and ten fights, Tata Tot could feel the intensity of his domineering power rising, and his strength and speed were also being pushed up.

Just one second passed at this time.

The battle between life and death is the best way for a strong person to grow.

It can even be said that after waking up, most of the growth in the past two months came from the gains from the previous battle.

Of course 1 minute is not enough.

But now Tata Tot has 54 opportunities to [choose the future] every second, so subjectively, he has 55 minutes.

Including the growth in strength, the number of [Choose the Future] will also increase. In total, it lasts almost an hour and a half.

an hour and a half...

By that time, he was confident that he could easily defeat his current self even without using his tail.

But this level of progress, for Im, is not even one, it is still just zero.

It takes time, it takes a lot of time, it takes an unimaginably long time compared to the short 30 years of a human life for two lifetimes.

Tata Tot realized this.

Also realized what this meant.

And this time is the [Future], the No. 20 seven [Future] in the first second after [Choose the Future] is activated——

Im kicked him on his fat, round belly, and the next moment he was bounced high into the air. Then the next moment, Tata Tot appeared above his head, and with a flick of his tail, Im was sent back to the ground. .

[Why do you do such a futile thing? 】

Because someone is fighting.

【Why should we die? 】

For some have died because of me, and some have died for me.

Is there anything in this world that I really have to do?

Confusion and pain, no matter what, can only be boiled down to one point in the end.

【As long as I surpass you】

There is only one thing that can be done.

Once you start, there's no turning back.

Standing high in the sky, Tata Tot closed his eyes.

[Sure enough, if you are so handsome, I want to say it no matter what! 】

[If I take a step back here, all the important vows and agreements in the past will disappear, and I will never be able to come back here. 】

He will not forget what happened...but...

【Choose the future】
