One Piece: Building the Roxas Empire

All of a sudden, BIG MOM used her energy to decompose her child into her own flesh and blood, allowing BIG MOM to instantly recover to her full strength. Without the burden of the child in her belly, she could let go and fight.

"Tsk, but that's fine. That child shouldn't have come into this world in the first place. It's good that she's gone now." Slit's tone was cold. Just now, when Big Mom was pregnant, there was no point in fighting her. Now that Big Mom had killed the child in her belly, she also wanted to see how strong this woman was. She said, "He, you come and hold the fort for me. Let me test her strength first."

The navy basically doesn't care about BIG MOM, a pirate who has been staying in her own little corner and giving birth to babies every day, so most people don't know how strong she is. Slit has never fought with BIG MOM, so he doesn't know her true strength.

"Okay, be careful." He also nodded slightly.

Soon, Slit took action. After the baby was gone, Big Mom regained her prime. Her speed and strength were even faster and stronger than before. He grabbed Zeus the Thunder Cloud in his hand and growled, "Thunder..."

Slit's eyes flashed with the Observation Haki that could foresee the future. After dodging the thunderbolt, he roared in the air while jumping: "Storm Kicks: Random Dance..."

"Don't look down on me, Napoleon..." BIG MOM waved the Napoleon in her hand and chopped it quickly, cutting off the vacuum slashes one after another, and then chose to take the initiative to attack Slit.

Slit's fists were also hardened with Armament Haki, and he went head-to-head with BIG MOM. His Armament Haki was only one step away from reaching the high-level Armament Haki. In this sea, there were very few strong people who could match him, and BIG MOM was one of them. He had to break through himself and improve his strength to a higher level in the battle with BIG MOM.

Slit also grinned as he looked at her and said, "Not a bad attack! As expected of the world's strongest female pirate, with this monstrous physique plus her domineering aura, she can even withstand the attack of a navy admiral."

On the other side, Darius also left the Noxian Empire at this time.

The reason why they were driven out of the Noxus Empire was that over the past few months, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates had become well-behaved, and Kozuki Oden had not caused any trouble. Now, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates have become members of the Noxus Expeditionary Force, and because Kozuki Oden wanted to protect the people, he became a guard of the Noxus Empire, responsible for the empire's law and order and punishing criminals.

Although Kozuki Oden did not join the Noxian expeditionary force, it was not bad for him to stay in the empire. Moreover, Darius was not worried that Kozuki Oden would betray him. His wife, children, and father's retainers were all under the surveillance of the Noxian Empire. Moreover, Blue Crystal and Bai Yijun's ability tests did not show that Kozuki Oden had any tendency to betray, so Darius did not pay much attention to him.

Sailing the Iron Blood towards Wanguo.

This time, Darius only had one ship, the Ironblood, because most of the Noxian troops were in the expeditionary force, all going to expand the territory. However, Darius had also notified Ashen and the others to sail the ship to Ten Thousand Nations.

This time BIG MOM took the initiative to ask for help from the Noxian Empire, so Darius must have a good talk with her. If possible, he wants to make Wan Guo a vassal state of the Noxian Empire. If BIG MOM dares to refuse, Darius doesn't mind using force.

Nowadays, there are too many pirate nations and pirate groups in the New World. This world does not need so many kings.

However, not long after the Iron Blood moved forward, Bao Liqiang suddenly came to report: "Your Majesty, there is a pirate ship coming towards us."

"Pirate ship?" Darius was a little dissatisfied and asked, "What pirate group?"

"It's the Bison Pirates. Captain Bison is a pirate with a bounty of 3500 million berries." Baoliqiang also reported honestly.

Darius also said calmly: "We don't have time to deal with these little pirates now, just sink them!"

"Yes." Then, Bao Liqiang directly ordered his subordinates to fire, and one shell after another was fired at the opponent's pirate ship.

At this moment, above the Bison Pirates, a terrifying domineering aura spread out, followed by a blood-red sword pressure that instantly crushed the incoming shells, and the powerful sword energy attacked the Iron Blood in the distance.

Darius was enjoying a massage from his maid Hill on a recliner when he suddenly felt a terrifying domineering aura coming from afar. He immediately jumped up from his chair and saw the terrifying sword pressure coming from the pirate ship in the distance.

This scared Darius, and he just wanted to stop it, but the next second, Tibers moved first, standing on the bow, and then slapped down with his huge bear paw, and suddenly five cracks were drawn in the air. With a "ping" sound, the five cracks began to expand continuously like broken glass, and a powerful shock wave hit the sword energy on the opposite side.

The shock wave and sword energy collided with each other and exploded instantly. Then the shock wave spread to the surroundings, and the entire sea area began to shake violently.

"That is Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit. Why does that bear have Whitebeard's ability?" At this time, on the ship of the Bison Pirates, a middle-aged man in his fifties dressed in red looked at Tibers in shock. This middle-aged man was the Red Earl Redfield.

At this time, Darius also noticed the Red Earl opposite him and was also shocked: "It turned out to be him."

"Isn't that guy the Red Earl? Why is he here?" Bao Liqiang was also shocked after seeing the Red Earl.

Darius smiled, thinking of what happened in the Sabaody Archipelago. At that time, he was able to kill Marshal Kong thanks to the Red Earl! He grinned and said, "It seems that this is not a coincidence! Could it be that he came here specifically to find me? Drive the boat over!"

"Yes, Your Majesty..." Bao Liqiang immediately obeyed the order after hearing it.

Soon, the Iron Blood approached. Darius looked at the Red Earl Redfield on the opposite side and said with a smile: "Long time no see! Redfield."

Redfield, who was standing at the bow, said coldly, "Last time, on the Sabaody Archipelago, you hindered my battle. I said that I would settle this account with you."

When Darius heard this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on his lips: "So this isn't a chance encounter, but you took the initiative to come to me?"

Redfield held the umbrella sword in his left hand, and placed his right hand on the back of his left hand. He said calmly, "In my opinion, there are only two people in this world who are worthy of my full efforts. One is Roger and the other is Whitebeard. But you killed Whitebeard, which aroused my curiosity."

Darius said jokingly, "So, you want to kill me?"

Redfield still had a calm expression and said, "I just wanted to test my limits. The fact that you were able to kill Admiral Kong and Sengoku, as well as Whitebeard, is enough to show your strength. I want to see if my swordsmanship can be improved."

Darius was a little confused about Redfield. He was so powerful, but he insisted on being a lone ranger. Darius didn't even think of inviting such a person. Red was aloof and disdained to associate with others. It was almost impossible to recruit such a person as a subordinate.

"It's up to you! If you want to die, I can fulfill your wish." Darius didn't care. He wanted to unify the new world, so if they were not his subordinates, they were destined to be his enemies, and Lairdfield was obviously an enemy.

Darius said to the violent Qiang next to him: "Qiang, go to the nearby island."

"Yes."

Angela, who was standing behind him, said worriedly, "Master, my mother..."

Darius did not answer her, and Angelou also shut her mouth obediently. She was naturally a little worried about the BIG MOM Pirates, but she was not worried about the BIG MOM Pirates, but about his brothers and sisters. Angelou was now pregnant, three months pregnant, and Castard and Blowayer were both five or six months pregnant, so they could not go to Wano Country with them.

Soon, they arrived at an uninhabited island. Darius and Redfield boarded the island. Darius asked Redfield, "It may be a little redundant, but I'll ask you anyway! If I win, are you willing to join the Noxus Empire?"

Redfield smiled lightly and said calmly: "I will not join any forces. If I lose, you can take my life."

"It is true." Darius also smiled lightly. He had already thought of the answer given by Redfield. The reason why he asked was just to give it a try.

'However, that's fine. So far, Armament Haki has not reached the point where it can be destroyed from the inside. This time, let's see if my Armament Haki can break through!' Darius thought to himself, and decided to fight Redfield this time without using any skills, relying on Haki and Devil Fruit abilities. No, even the Devil Fruit abilities can be reduced, and he can mainly rely on Haki to fight.

Even though Darius now possesses the strongest power in the world, he is also very clear that his strength mainly comes from equipment and skills. Among the three colors of domineering, only the observation domineering is slightly stronger, and the Yamata-no-Orochi fruit has not shown any signs of awakening so far, and Darius has no idea about the awakening of his abilities.

"You want to use me as a whetstone? Hmph, interesting..." Redfield seemed to be able to hear Darius's thoughts and said to himself, "But I have the same idea."

As he spoke, Redfield drew out his umbrella sword, and without calling for action, he took the lead in moving. His figure flashed and moved like a ghost, and he launched the first attack.
