Chapter 45
After helping Hanc.o.c.k apply the ointment, Lin Tian handed the bottle of medicine to Shakky and the others because they also had wounds on their bodies.
Seeing that everyone had minor injuries on their bodies, but nothing terrible happened, Rayleigh quickly let out a sigh of relief. To be able to endure being surrounded by so many Marine Soldiers without taking severe injuries, I have to say that this is a blessing.
Facing Silvers Rayleigh, the remaining Marine Soldiers were, of course, very careful. The Marine Soldiers who were scattered around gathered together and watched Rayleigh from a distance. They were cautious because they were afraid that Rayleigh would immediately attack.
This was the intimidating aura of a legendary pirate. Even if he just stands like usual, they can hold hundreds of Marine Soldiers who are lowest between the captain and above levels from moving.
One of them held fear in his heart, pretended to be calm, and said: “Silvers Rayleigh, will you fight us to the end?
Lin Tian glanced at the Marine Soldiers who had been defeated by himself and his comrades.
He was confused and asked back: “Aren’t we at war with Marine Soldiers now? What are we actually doing just now? Are we playing a fighting game?”
As soon as he said these lines, the Marine Soldier regretted it and scolded himself for being stupid and asking such silly questions.
Silvers Rayleigh was already a huge pirate who shocked the world more than ten years ago. Not all pirates oppose Marine.
At this time, Rayleigh said: “We just want to leave. If the Marine Soldiers let us through, then I will not take action against you. If you insist on blocking us, there is only fighting.”
This is not a good choice for the remaining Marine Soldiers. If Rayleigh and the others were allowed to pa.s.s, where would Marine’s face be put, and how to deal with the justice in his heart, didn’t the fallen comrades die in vain?
But if they didn’t let go, how would they be able to fight against Silvers Rayleigh.
“Even if the opponent is Rayleigh, how can we possibly retreat? We are Marin Soldiers who uphold justice. If we step back from being a pirate, how can we hold justice in our hearts?” a Rear-Admiral of the crowd spoke up to encourage his comrades.
If the Vice-Admiral Dalmatian was here right now, I’m afraid this Rear-Admiral would be slapped to death. This rear-admiral was in front of him, and he had a big talk in front of the Dalmatian, saying that there was no need to worry about Silvers Rayleigh’s strength.
As soon as this Rear-Admiral spoke, a lot of Marine Soldiers echoed out.
“Yes, as a capable Marine Soldier, we must uphold absolute justice!”
“Even if a legendary pirate-like Silvers Rayleigh is before us, we must not retreat!”
“Because we are Marine Soldiers!”
………
Most people join the navy for justice in their hearts, or they hate pirates. If they really stepped back this time, the confidence that had supported them to keep going would collapse.
So they can’t back off, for justice in their hearts!
Seeing the remaining Marine Soldiers daring to stop him, Rayleigh’s face showed a hint of admiration. Marine Soldiers who could give their lives to uphold justice have unlimited potential.
They don’t even fear death. How many things in this world can stop them.
“Although I really admire your att.i.tude, you guys have decided to stop us, and then I can only take action.”
As soon as Rayleigh’s voice fell, a powerful aura emitted from Rayleigh’s body without any warning.
Under this intense momentum, the Marine Soldiers before him fell one by one, and Rayleigh did not launch any attacks.
He didn’t even move. Because of this intense aura emanating from his body, the Marine Elite Soldiers that remained in front of him were almost completely knocked down.
There were hundreds of Marine Elite Soldiers, and only a few of them could survive the powerful aura, and all of them were supported by blades, so they barely fell.
Lin Tian, who was next to Rayleigh, naturally also felt this momentum. His whole body seemed to be pressed by hundreds of thousands of catties, and his body couldn’t even move an inch.
This powerful aura is like a wave that continuously sweeps across your brain and is constantly pressing on your brain’s nerves.
Let you yield under this powerful aura.
That was Conqueror’s Haki.
This is Conqueror’s Haki and is only possessed by certain people who desire to become such a powerful king. Only the user’s desire can make others pa.s.s out unless the person hit had the strength or willpower to endure it. Otherwise, they would faint immediately under Conqueror’s Haki.
Meanwhile, Haki is a potential power possessed by many strong characters in the One Piece world, and it is also something that must be possessed to become a strong person. This strength is born from determination and vigorous training.
Even if you are not someone who has Devil Fruit abilities, as long as you can skillfully use your Haki, you will have powerful strength. You will be even stronger in some aspects and have the advantage over people who even have strong Devil Fruit powers.
The clearest example is Silvers Rayleigh. Silvers Rayleigh hasn’t eaten any Devil Fruits, but in his power, using Haki gives him a fighting strength that is not inferior to that of an Admiral.
And he doesn’t have the drawbacks of those who eat Devil Fruits, namely that they can’t swim.
If a Devil Fruit can give devastating power to humans in an instant, then Haki is the door to success that opens for those who work hard, this door beyond Devil Fruit abilities.
There are three types of Haki, Observation Haki, Armament Haki, and Conqueror’s Haki.
And the most powerful of the three types of Haki is Conqueror’s Haki, which is currently used by Rayleigh. He released his aura with courage alone, even a Commodore could not withstand the pressure under that intense aura, and only the characters above Rear-Admiral could survive. Some weak Rear-Admirals may not make it.
Just like now, out of the hundreds of Marine Soldiers that could last only a few people, they were still exhausted after enduring Rayleigh’s Conqueror’s Haki.
As for Conqueror’s Haki’s strength, Lin Tian could now be said to have a clear realization. Even though Lin Tian was unconscious due to his strength and willpower, his powerful aura pressed down on him like a mountain, leaving him affected slightly.
For Lin Tian, the physical pressure was still tolerable. The most intense is mental stress. If he didn’t have strong determination, he wouldn’t be able to withstand this attack.
At this moment, Lin Tian felt like a boat drifting in the sea being hit by the strong waves every moment.
“Is this Conqueror’s Haki? This aura really is strong. Just because of the slightest bit of aura, I barely have the strength to fight back at all, but it’s a Haki that only one in a million people possess.”
A Rear-Admiral instantly matched even an ordinary person who could awaken this power.
Sandersonia and Marygold saw what was happening in front of them, with shocked faces, “What happened? Why did so many Marine Soldiers fall all of a sudden?”
Compared to his younger brother, Hanc.o.c.k has a much stronger observation ability, although he doesn’t understand the reason for the Marine soldiers’ fall.
But Hanc.o.c.k can be sure that Rayleigh must do this, and only Silvers Rayleigh here can do it.
Shakky has a calm face, and Shakky has long known about Rayleigh’s Conqueror’s Haki.
But what makes Shakky confused is, ever since he got along with Rayleigh, Rayleigh has always acted like an ordinary old man.
But today, Rayleigh not only defeated all of the Marine Elite Soldiers from the G-7 but even used Conqueror’s Haki to take them down. What’s this all about? Are you giving a wish to tell the world that Silvers Rayleigh is alive? Or is there another reason?
“Is this the power of Silvers Rayleigh? Just standing alone can defeat hundreds of Marine Elite Soldiers.”
Although Hanc.o.c.k spent a lot of time with Rayleigh, in her eyes, Rayleigh was always an old man who didn’t care about anything. He also really likes gambling. He doesn’t seem like a strong person. But today, Hanc.o.c.k finally saw the Dark King, Silvers Rayleigh, who was serious.
In the past, Rayleigh was just an old man who liked to gamble. Currently, Rayleigh is a lion who wakes up from his sleep.
This is the Dark King, Silvers Rayleigh!
