One Piece: Building the Roxas Empire

Chapter 2 Kaido's Challenge

After several hours of fierce fighting, the captain of the Second Division suffered hundreds of casualties, and the navy also suffered heavy casualties. In the end, they seized a warship and escaped from Kurilan Island.

"Hahaha, this time it's really dangerous! It's really all because of drinking!" After making sure that he had shaken off the navy behind him, Shi Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the fact that most of the crew members on the ship were injured. After all, everyone got drunk last night, and their performance was a little unstable under the drunken state.

Indigo, who was Shiki's confidant, was also thankful: "Fortunately, the navy didn't send out strong men like Sengoku and Garp, otherwise we might have been wiped out last night!"

Shi Ji didn't care at all and laughed, "Hahaha, brothers, let's have a party to celebrate our escape from death!"

"Oh!!!" All the pirates cheered when they heard this. Even though they almost lost their lives last night because of drinking, they became excited when they heard that another party was going to start.

"Hey, you still want to drink!" Indigo cursed in despair after hearing this. This group of people is simply hopeless.

Although Shiki the Golden Lion has a cruel personality, as a pirate he also loves parties very much. He holds a party almost every day on the ship. Even if there are no activities, he never gets tired of it. The other pirates are the same. As a pirate, they must be very happy to be able to hold parties every day.

A few days later.

"Hey, Darius, come and see! Your bounty is out." At this moment, a pirate excitedly shouted while holding this morning's morning paper. His name was Erkang, and he was an old man of the second team.

For those who sail on the sea every day, newspapers are indispensable. It is also the best and fastest way for them to understand the outside world.

Darius was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that he would get a bounty so soon. But it was normal. After all, in order to gain experience points, he needed to kill monsters or kill people, so he would definitely be offered a bounty by the navy.

At this time, Erkang came to Darius with a newspaper in his hand, looking very excited. "Look, this is your bounty, Axe Darius. The bounty is 3000 million berries. That's amazing! The first bounty is 3000 million berries."

"'Big Axe', what kind of a nickname is this! It's so ugly." After hearing this title, Darius was very dissatisfied. He was so dissatisfied with this title that he would definitely ask the navy to correct his title when he became strong in the future.

"Hahaha, the first bounty can get 3000 million Beli, that's pretty good!" At this time, Shiqi also came over from behind. When he first received the bounty, it was only 2500 million Beli.

Darius just smiled casually and didn't answer. When Kaido and Charlotte Linlin first offered a bounty, their bounties were higher than his, and when they first offered a bounty, they were younger than Darius is now.

Sky stood at the bow and gave orders: "Alright, brothers, our mission has taken long enough, and we've had enough fun. Let's prepare to return. Don't let that bastard Rocks wait too long..."

"oh!!!!"

After that, Darius followed Ski back to the Rocks Pirates' base, Beehive Island, and Darius began his daily training here.

After all, this was real life, not a game, so Darius wanted to see if he could improve his attack power through practice.

Although the data has not changed in these days, Darius has truly felt his own growth. At least his two-color domineering power has been greatly enhanced.

Because he was affiliated with the second squad, in the past few months, apart from practicing, he followed the second squad to collect protection fees or recruit personnel, killing people as much as possible.

In fact, Darius would rather kill people and rob than do boring training, because he can directly gain experience points through killing. As long as he levels up, he can become stronger directly. Isn't this faster than slow training!

During this period, Rocks also heard about Darius, a promising newcomer, and specially asked Ski to bring Darius to meet him. Rocks also encouraged Darius and nothing else happened. After all, there were dozens of trainees in the Rocks Pirates. Even if Darius had potential, he was not worthy of his attention.

In the Rocks Pirates, the one with the most potential is Kaido, who is being trained by Rocks as his future right-hand man. In addition, the children of Captain Charlotte Linlin of the Third Division are actually trainee crew members of the Rocks Pirates. Marco, the adopted son of Edward Newgate, Whitebeard of the First Division, is also a trainee crew member.

Marco is now 7 years old. I heard from the people on the ship that Whitebeard picked up Marco when he was still a baby. Since then, he has always kept him by his side and treated Marco as his own son.

On the Beehive Island, on the No. 1 training ground, Darius wiped the sweat from his forehead. After several months of physical training, his attack power, armor, magic resistance, and health points had not been improved at all, which made Darius a little disappointed. Fortunately, they were indeed improved. It was a pity that the domineering power would not be displayed on the attribute panel.

In the Rocks Pirates, basically everyone can use Haki, so it is not difficult for Darius to learn Haki. With the instruction of several seniors, he has mastered the basic two-color Haki after a few months. However, Darius has not yet awakened the Conqueror's Haki.

At this moment, Darius felt a brutal aura behind him. He turned around and found a seven-meter-tall young man with a pair of horns on his head standing behind him. He knew this man was a trainee crew member of the Third Division, Kaido, and also one of the future Four Emperors.

"Kaido?" Darius was a little surprised. Although he and Kaido were both members of the Rocks Pirates, they had not met each other many times. After all, the Rocks Pirates were the overlords of the New World. There were more than 10,000 people in the group, and there were more than 80 pirate groups under its command, owning more than a thousand islands of all sizes. Even though he and Kaido were both trainee crew members, they belonged to different groups, so the chances of meeting each other were naturally very rare.

"Darius, I heard that you offered a bounty of 3000 million berries!" Kaido looked down at Darius, his tone full of coldness and arrogance. In the Rocks Pirates, strength is everything. Although Kaido is a strong crew member, he is stronger than many formal crew members. Darius is the second person among the trainee crew members who has a bounty besides him, which makes Kaido very interested in Darius.

Darius was a little unhappy. He was only 196cm tall. Facing Kaido who was over seven meters tall, he was like a little man and a giant. He frowned slightly and asked, "So what? You came here to ask this?"

"Oh lololo, everyone is free anyway, how about it? Let's have a fight!" Kaido grinned grimly after hearing this.

Darius frowned as he listened. In terms of age, Kaido is only three years older than him, and he has not eaten the Blue Dragon Fruit in the original work. Darius only knows that this devil fruit was given to Kaido by BIG MOM, but Darius does not know the details.

In the original work, Darius only watched the anime of One Piece and did not read the manga, so he is not very clear about the plot.

After thinking for a moment, Darius agreed and said, "Okay, let's give it a try!"

Darius also wanted to see how big the gap was between his current strength and the future Four Emperors Kaido, and also to see the results of his training over the past three months.

Kaido also took off the mace behind him at this time, grinning: "Oh Lololo, come on! This happens to be a training ground, let me see your strength."

"Okay! Come on!" Darius was eager to try at this time. Facing the future Four Emperors of the Pirates, the strongest creature on land, sea and air, Darius wanted to fight him. At the same time, he also wanted to test his own strength, so he picked up the black axe next to him.

This axe was given by the system. It is a double-sided axe, 80 meters long and cm wide. It looks similar to the Black Cutter, but Darius simply named this axe "Black Cutter".

The two men stood facing each other on the training ground. Kaido was relatively relaxed, but Darius was a little nervous. After all, he was facing the future Four Emperors, and he had only been in this world for half a year. Although his strength had improved a lot in the past six months, he had no idea whether he could defeat Kaido.

He clenched the Black Cleaver in both hands, stared at Kaido opposite him, and looked at his own skills on the panel. To be honest, these skills only took a few seconds in the game, but in reality they took hours, which was simply fatal. He could probably only use them once or twice in a battle.

Seeing Kaido still didn't react, Darius made up his mind: "Never mind, take the initiative..."

With a kick of his feet, his body bounced towards Kaido, and the Black Cut in Darius's hand began to glow red.

"Crippling blow..."

Darius plans to use his skills right from the start. He has Conqueror, and as long as he can hurt Kaido, he can start stacking Conqueror. At the same time, he can also trigger Grasp of the Undying. Facing Kaido, Darius dare not be careless.

"Oh Lololo, good thing, but don't fall down all of a sudden." As he said that, Kaido also clenched the mace in his hand and made a baseball posture. Seeing this posture, Darius felt something was wrong.

"Thunderous Bagua..."

"Crippling blow..."

"Ping..." With a violent metal collision sound, the Black Cut, which was hardened by the Armament Haki, hit the metal black rod, and suddenly there was a sharp metal collision sound. At this moment, Darius felt the pain in his hand. The recoil force made the tiger's mouth seem to crack because of the previous blow.

Under one blow, the axe blade and the mace were still colliding, and metal sparks were jumping on it. Now it has become a theoretical competition.

"What kind of strange power does this guy have?" Darius felt the power of the mace, and the stone slab under his feet began to crack.

The crippling blow he just used increased his attack power by 50%, but in the end he only managed to tie with Kaido's random attack?

"Oh lololo, not bad! You actually blocked my attack!" Kaido was very excited when he saw Darius blocked his attack. Darius was three years younger than him, and being able to block his attack was enough to make him proud.

He exerted force in his hands and forced Darius back.

"Come again!" Kaido said, and attacked Darius first.

Darius immediately stepped back to dodge. Through the simple fight just now, Darius knew that Kaido's strength was superior to his. If he wanted to defeat him, he had to increase his attack power first. The first thing he had to do was to stack up Conqueror. Only with a full stack of Conqueror, might he have a chance to defeat Kaido, but this also meant that he had to hit Kaido twelve times before he could stack it to the full stack.

"Why are you running! Stop right there." Kaido was very unhappy when he saw Darius chose to escape, and he cursed at Darius.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm just looking for an opportunity." Darius cursed back unhappily. Although there is a gap between him and Kaido, the gap is not to the point of despair.

At this moment, Darius spat out a mouthful of blood and spit directly at Kaido.

Kaido was also stunned, and a mouthful of bloody phlegm was spit directly on his face, which immediately made Kaido feel deeply humiliated. He did not expect Darius to use such a low-class method to wipe the bloody phlegm off his face, and immediately mocked: "Tsk, spitting, are you playing house?"

Originally, Kaido thought Darius was a good person, but now he felt a little contempt for Darius. He even dared to spit at him, and even spit on his face. Although this move was not very harmful, it was extremely insulting.

"Don't think you can escape..." Suddenly, Kaido increased his speed, predicted the direction Darius would retreat through his Observation Haki, and immediately hit him with a stick.

Darius looked at Kaido's attack, a smile appeared on his face, and he thought to himself: "Mark..."

In an instant, Darius' figure suddenly increased dozens of times like a ghost, and he came in front of Kaido as if flying. The Black Cut, which was hardened by the armament domineering, slashed at Kaido fiercely.

"What!!" Kaido was also shocked this time and had no time to defend himself.

"Hiss..." An axe chopped down, and a streak of blood immediately appeared on Kaido's chest.

Conqueror level 1, attack power increased by 2, Grasp of the Undying triggered, passive bleeding triggered.

All of a sudden, Darius's health increased by 1 point due to the triggering of Grasp of the Undying.

At this moment, Kaido also felt the pain of the wound, and at the same time, an inexplicable force seemed to penetrate into his body, making him feel a little uncomfortable, but it was not a big deal for Kaido, and he punched Darius hard.

Darius in mid-air had no way to dodge and could only defend. Kaido punched him directly and sent him flying. He rolled on the ground for several meters before stopping.

"Oh Lololo, not bad! Darius, I'll remember you. The attack just now was pretty good. I used Haki to defend, but it still broke my defense." Kaido suddenly laughed wildly at this time. Although there were many people in the Rocks Pirates who could defeat him, this was the first time that Kaido was injured by someone younger than him, which made Kaido very excited.

"Come on, let's do it again..."
