One Piece: Three Fruits, Starting with the Dark-Dark Fruit

Shanks said nothing. Unlike Buggy, he was not able to ignore the attacks of the Biscuit Men. He could only grit his teeth and struggle to hold on while being surrounded by a large number of Biscuit Men.

However, he had just made a breakthrough in Armament Haki, and he had already tried his best to break the biscuit armor on Cracker. Now facing such a large number of biscuit men, he soon felt powerless.

Just as Shanks was struggling to resist the attacks from the biscuit men from all directions, a painful cry was heard. Shanks was startled. It was Buggy's voice.

Shanks, who was surrounded by biscuit men, could not see the situation outside. When he learned that Buggy was probably in danger, he burst out with all his strength, turned his body violently, and used his long sword to repel the biscuit men around him.

Then he saw that various parts of Bucky's body were being grabbed and twisted by a group of cookie men, and Bucky's head was being stepped on by a cookie man. He was in so much pain that he was crying and snotting.

Seeing this scene, Shanks' eyes were bloodshot and he yelled,

"Let go of Buggy! Come and fight me!"

Cracker, who was not far away, raised a cruel smile and said,

"Don't worry, you'll be the next one. Before that, I'll make you watch that red-nosed guy die!"

As he spoke, Cracker controlled all the cookie men to increase the strength of their hands. Bucky's body was almost twisted into a knot. The cookie man who was stepping on his head was crushing it hard. Under this torture, Bucky's voice became weaker and weaker.

Shanks' eyes were red and he wanted to rush over to save Buggy, but he was blocked by the biscuit men who surrounded him again.

Shanks was so upset that he could no longer remain calm as before. His observation Haki weakened and soon he had several knife wounds on his body. A strand of his red hair was even cut off.

Even though Shanks' situation had reached an extremely dangerous point, Ziger on the top of the tower in the distance still hesitated to take action. There was a scarlet light flashing in his eyes, and his pupils reflected the thin figure of Shanks fighting bloody battles.

Shanks completely ignored his injuries and only wanted to rush over to save Buggy.

When Buggy's voice became almost inaudible, Shanks' pupils suddenly shrank and the long-suppressed anger burst out of his body like a tide.

"Take your dirty feet away!!!"

hum!

At this moment, in extreme anger, Shanks finally awakened his domineering color.

Unfortunately, there were almost no weak people present, only a few soldiers from Big Mom's pirate group were knocked unconscious by the domineering color.

However, it also temporarily stopped the battle in the field, and everyone focused their attention on Shanks.

Lingling narrowed her eyes slightly and said,

"That brat..."

Roger showed a look of surprise and said,

"Just as I expected, he also has this qualification!"

The members of Roger's pirate group were also happy about Shanks' awakening, except Barrett, who just glanced and then looked away.

In his opinion, even though Shanks had awakened his Conqueror's Haki, he was still not serious enough to attract his attention.

Katakuri had already awakened his Conqueror's Haki, so he was only slightly surprised.

Roger and Lingling seemed to be making a big fuss out of nothing.

But is this really the case?

You have to know that both of them have cultivated their Conqueror's Haki to the level where they can entangle others, especially Roger. His Conqueror's Haki can even cause substantial damage.

Roger could feel that Shanks' domineering Haki was very "pure" and was a true king's qualification!

Once this domineering color is awakened, the speed of cultivation will reach a level that is beyond the reach of others. Roger is very sure of this because he himself is in this situation.

In time, Shanks will surely catch up with him, or even surpass him, after all, he doesn't have much time left.

(Personally, I think that Conqueror's Haki is indeed divided into grades, and the training speed will be accelerated after awakening. The higher the grade, the faster the training. Refer to the youngest of the Four Emperors Shanks and the protagonist King Luffy in the original work. Of course, this is just my personal feeling, and you can treat it as a second setting.)

Roger thought of Ziger again. During that fight, he also felt a domineering Haki from Ziger that was no lesser than his own. He really couldn't imagine how such an arrogant feeling could appear in a marine.

However, Ziger was looking at Shanks with a look of satisfaction at this time. The reason why he had not taken action was that he wanted to try to force Shanks to use the Conqueror's Haki in advance.

Because in his opinion, Shanks' situation just now perfectly met the conditions for awakening the Conqueror's Haki.

One is Shanks himself who is in danger, and the other is Buggy who is being beaten.

Facts have proved that his judgment was correct.

……

Cracker was stunned by Shanks's domineering color just now. At this moment, he was staring at Shanks with eyes full of jealousy and resentment, gritting his teeth and saying,

"How can a guy like you awaken the Conqueror's Haki? You don't deserve it at all!"

He no longer cared about Buggy who had been tortured half to death, and controlled all the cookie men to rush towards Shanks.

Seeing this, Roger wanted to rescue her but was held back by Lingling.

Lingling sneered,

"Want to save that brat? Return Owen to me first!"

Roger was so angry that he cursed.

"You stupid woman! I told you it wasn't me!"

At this point in the battle, Shanks' physical strength has been exhausted. Facing the biscuit man rushing towards him, he roared, as if he wanted to release his domineering style again.

However, his Domineering Haki had just awakened and he was not able to control it freely. Apart from cheering him up, the roar did not cause any unusual phenomena.

At this moment, Jiger's lips slightly opened in the distance,

"break."

buzzing...

Under Shanks' confused gaze, all the cookie men suddenly vibrated at a specific frequency, dense cracks appeared on their bodies, and they all collapsed before they could rush to him.

Shanks looked at the cookie crumbs on the ground and blinked a few times. He thought he had really released his domineering Haki again, but wasn't the power a bit too outrageous?

Cracker's jaw almost dropped to the ground, his face full of disbelief.

Roger and Lingling suddenly stopped and looked in the same direction at the same time.

Jiger reached out and put his hand on Owen's head, twisting it gently.

With a crisp click, Owen's head was separated from his body.

Jiger grabbed Owen's head and tossed it, saying softly,

"I've been discovered. I wanted to watch the dog-eat-dog drama for a while longer..."

The next second, Owen's head turned black and shot out like a cannonball...
