All kidding aside, Rocks really asked me to be the captain!

"Although it's a little strange that a great pirate like Shiki the Golden Lion would come to such a frontier sea area...but it doesn't matter!"

"As long as we can kill him, my name Douglas Barrett will be known all over the world!!!"

Barrett, who used to be a soldier, had a look as firm as steel at this moment, and his eyes revealed a ferocious aura that made people feel chilled!

Those eyes seemed to be burning with blazing flames, full of endless strength and determination. Every blink was like a flash of lightning across the dark night sky, making people shudder!

The words just fell!

After testing the floating island and its approximate distance from himself.

Barrett's entire body of dense and hard muscles suddenly burst out with terrifying power. With a powerful wave of air, like a cannonball fired from a gun, he instantly jumped towards the island controlled by Luohou!

Boom!

Under his terrifying force, the already shattered pirate ship could no longer withstand such tremendous pressure and instantly fell apart, turning into countless wood chips and broken wreckage, scattered on the endless sea!

The distance between the two sides was still several hundred meters.

Barrett rushed towards the island almost instantly and stood on the ground of the floating island!

The whole person seemed to be flying directly over there!

At this time, Luohu, who was controlling the floating of the island, had naturally noticed this young man a long time ago!

Although Douglas Barrett is still very young at this moment.

Even like Kaido who looked like a small minion in the battle of God Valley~

But Luohou recognized the other party's identity almost the moment he sensed the figure with extraordinary aura with his observation Haki!

If we talk according to the normal talent hierarchy system!

This guy Douglas Barrett's talent ranking can definitely reach a level close to Rocks!

After all, even Roger, who would dominate the entire ocean in the future, was just an unknown new pirate at the age of 15!

However, Barrett has reached the strength to go head-to-head with the big pirates at this age!

Even the Pirate King's deputy can't get any advantage when fighting him alone!

"You're not Golden Lion! Who are you? And why do you have its devil fruit ability?!"

"Did you kill that great pirate, the Golden Lion?"

Barrett widened his eyes, looking in disbelief at the man who was standing quietly in front of him but exuding an extremely powerful and domineering aura all the time!

He could clearly sense that the domineering power of the man in front of him was far greater than his own!

It has even reached a whole new level!

"I'm definitely not a golden lion~"

"But strictly speaking, that guy Shiki should call me Captain~"

Luohou stared at the young man in front of him with great interest. His eyes, like lightning, had already seen through this guy who was full of potential and talent.

Douglas Barrett!

A man who will be called the Devil's descendant after Roger's death in the future!

In other words, this guy is recognized by the world as a man qualified to inherit the position of Pirate King!

The reason why Luohou deliberately slowed down and let this guy jump onto his floating island was because he wanted to win over this young strong man through force!

After all, in the history of this world, who is most likely to be recruited by the strong?

Then it must be Barrett without a doubt.

In the plot, Roger is so powerful that he directly attracted Barrett's challenge, and then Barrett joined Roger's pirate group!

Such a reckless man who only worships power!

As long as you have a fist big enough to beat him up severely and make him completely convinced, you can directly recruit him into your team!

And the reason why Luohou set his sights on this target.

Another purpose is to try out the new ability of the Meat-ball Fruit that he developed accidentally during the period of recovering his physical body!
