Chapter 42 The remaining spoils!

The encounter between the navy and Roger's pirate group started suddenly and ended very quickly. After the Roger pirate group left, Garp, Aokiji and others began to clean up the battlefield and sent the injured navy members back to the ship one by one.

And Tsugikuni Yoshiichi also joined in and helped send the crew back to the warship.

While helping to clean up the battlefield, Yoriichi was surprised to find that after such a great defeat, none of Garp's crew members had died. The worst hit was Bogart, who was beaten by Oden and covered in bandages, but he did not die.

The Roger Pirates actually held back against these navy men!

Shortly after returning to the ship, the sailors in the cabin and engine room who had been stunned by Roger's domineering aura gradually regained consciousness. They were all shocked to see their companions returning to the warship covered in wounds.

Without Garp's orders, several captains began organizing those who could move freely and settling the wounded. Garp stood on the deck in silence for a while, then felt relieved and walked to the fence. He leaned against the fence and looked sideways in the direction where Roger's pirate group had left, feeling uneasy.

"Roger, is this guy's goal to collect historical texts?"

"This is a huge deal!"

Garp sighed inwardly, his thoughts racing.

At this time, Garp recalled his previous conversation with Roger and keenly realized that Roger seemed to have something to say to him, but because of Oden's sudden attack, Roger was interrupted.

Looking back now, it was obvious that Roger was trying to tell him some message.

In fact, since the battle of God Valley several years ago, the relationship between Garp and Roger has become subtle. On the surface, Garp still leads the team to pursue Roger as before, but how much contribution Garp made is probably only known to Garp himself.

Most of the time, Garp would just use the pretext of hunting down Roger as a pretext to clear out the pirates along the way. This time, he led the team to attack Roger directly because the Roger Pirates were trying to contact Charlotte Linlin, which touched Garp's nerves.

However, after this encounter with Roger's pirate group, Garp had a premonition that things might become even more complicated. Roger's collection of historical texts would definitely attract the attention of the World Government.

"Roger, what kind of storm do you want to stir up?"

Just as Garp was staring at the sea in a daze, the voices of Aokiji and Yoriichirō talking came from the deck.

"Oh! Is this the sword of the Roger Pirates?"

“It looks great!”

“This knife seems to be of very good quality!”

On the deck, Aokiji held the Tenyuhazan in his hand, looked at the cold light on the blade, and sighed softly. He didn't know much about swords and didn't recognize the Tenyuhazan in his hand.

"Well, the workmanship is very fine. Moreover, the one in my hand is very strange. It seems to be absorbing my domineering aura!"

Yoshikazu Tsugakuni stood beside Aokiji, holding the hilt of Enma's sword in his hand, looking at the long sword in his hand with curiosity.

His armament Haki was absorbed by Enma and unconsciously attached to the sword. Yunyi could clearly feel the loss of his Haki and couldn't help but exclaim.

These two swords were Oden's swords before, and were thrown onto the ship after being disarmed by Garp. When Roger's pirate group left, for some reason, they did not come to take them away!

Garp turned around when he heard the sound and saw the two swords in the hands of Yunyi and Aokiji. He raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised. Then he saw Tsugikoku Yunyi fiddling with Yanma, his eyes widened, and he immediately shouted:

"Hey! Yunyi, put it down quickly."

"That's a demon sword! Don't touch it!"

Aokiji doesn't know the value of a sword, but Garp does. He already knew about the samurai on Roger's ship. Kozuki Oden's swords were all large, sharp 21-grade swords, genuine, famous swords.

Among them, the Enma in Yoshiichir's hand is a demon sword. When it was in Oden's hand, it had already begun to transform into a black sword. With time, its quality will be improved to a higher level. A weak person will not be able to control Enma at all. Instead, he will become exhausted or even die because of the domineering aura absorbed by Enma.

As mentioned before, domineering power is a kind of power hidden in the human body. Talented people can stimulate this power. Although untalented people cannot stimulate it, they will still have the power of domineering.

When this power is excessively extracted, the person will die!

Garp flashed to the side of Tsugakuin Yoriichi, looked at Tsugakuin Yoriichi with some concern, and stretched out his hand to snatch the demon sword Yanma from Yoriichi's hand, but Yoriichi subconsciously dodged. Hearing this, he was not surprised, but muttered to himself with interest:

"A demon sword! It looks powerful!"

“Try it!”

As he spoke, Yunyi quickly walked to the side of the boat, grabbed Yanma and swung it into the air towards the sea ahead. A powerful domineering aura shot out instantly, forming a flying slash about one or two meters long.

Unlike the flying slash that Tsugikuni Yoriichi had used before, this time, Yoriichi used a purely domineering slash. Although the range was much smaller, the power was simply incomparable to that kind of air slash.

“Wow!!!!”

The slash fell into the sea in the distance, and the sea surface was instantly split apart. The knife mark spread for dozens of meters. After a few seconds, the sea water flowed back and submerged the mark.

Garp, who had already come to Yunyi's side, stretched out his hand and grabbed Yunyi's wrist. Seeing this, Garp suddenly stiffened, slowly loosened his hand, and slightly stretched out his head. He looked at the sea surface, which had returned to calm, in some surprise, and murmured:

"Flying Slash. The real Flying Slash!"

After coming back to his senses, Garp turned his head to look at Yunyi and asked sharply:

"You kid, have you mastered the technique of domineering flow?!"

Garp's tone was full of disbelief and surprise. He had never taught Tsugikuni Yoriichi this technique, and he had never used similar techniques when training with Yoriichi.

Garp intends to teach Yoriichi these things only when the coverage of his Haki has not been improved.

Because the skill of letting domineering energy flow is difficult to learn, that mysterious "feeling" is the most difficult to grasp. Most people will probably waste more than ten years on it and will not make any progress.

In the world of One Piece, talent is also important!

But Garp didn't expect that Tsugikuni Yoriichi had already mastered it, inexplicably. He mastered it!

"A demon sword...it doesn't seem to be anything special." Yunyi looked down at the Yama in his hand and muttered to himself in some surprise. After hearing what Garp said, he turned his head and replied:

"The technique of Haki flow? If that's what you're talking about, Vice Admiral Garp, I think so."

"I saw someone beat Bogart like this before, so I tried it. Hmm, it works pretty well. The power of Haki has been greatly increased."

"Also, it has the effect of hitting from a distance."

As Yunyi spoke, he casually put Yanma aside, drew his long sword from his waist, and concentrated his domineering aura on the sword.

Garp narrowed his eyes slightly, used his Observation Haki to sense it, and nodded. After a while, Garp seemed to suddenly think of something, looked at Yunyi in confusion, and asked, "See? You saw it?"

"Yeah, I saw it."

"Also, I noticed that Roger seemed to be suffering from a serious illness. It seemed that he would not live long."

As Yunyi said this, he raised his head and looked at Garp.

As he expected, Garp's attention had been attracted by the news of Roger's illness. Garp was shocked at this time. When he heard the news, he was stunned.

"It's impossible for someone like him to get it."

“.”

At this point, Karp suddenly fell silent.

Garp had actually noticed during the battle just now that Roger had declined compared to before. Although he was still strong, Garp and Roger had fought countless times, and he knew Roger's strength very well. In other words, no one knew Roger's strength better than him.

Although Garp didn't know how Yoriichi could tell that the other person was sick, he knew that Yoriichi was not lying.

"I see!"

Garp's voice dropped to a low pitch.
