True Fire (3)
However, he did not want to go again. That was just retracing Roger’s path.
He wants to surpass Roger!
He would kill the strong n on the sea, kill the Yonkō (Four Emperors) and the generals, and beco the strongest in the sea. If he went to Raftel, he would surpass Roger!
Because Roger did not do such a thing.
“Flood Dragon!”
Kuro flew forward, his blade glowing with golden light as he waved it.
The golden light shone brightly in Barrett’s eyes, reminding him of the past.
At the age of eight, in order to defend the country, he participated in the Youth Army, stepped on mines on the battlefield or took bombs to be the vanguard to open the way. He made a huge contribution on the battlefield and was awarded the dal that could only be awarded with the greatest contribution.
Barrett was qualified because he was very powerful at that ti, stronger than his ‘companions’.
However, just as he was about to succeed, his companion betrayed him and snatched his dal, leaving him on the verge of death.
However, he did not hate them. He just felt that he was not strong enough. Strong enough to make people fear him is not strong enough. Strong enough to make people unable to resist. That is real strength!
After recovering from his injuries, he found those young soldiers and captured them all in one fell swoop.
From the age of nine to 13, he relied on [Power Alone] to dominate the battlefield and beca more and more convinced of this principle. Only by being strong can he have freedom and dominate his life.
At the age of fourteen, the country was about to win. At that ti, his chief officer promised that once he won, he would be allowed to leave the battlefield, leave the country, and give him true freedom.
Barrett believed him and worked even harder. In the last war, he fought against thousands of troops and won the country at the cost of dying.
But he was betrayed again. His chief officer or his country feared his strength and wanted him to die there too. As for the so-called freedom, it was even more nonsense.
The angry Bartley destroyed his country and went to sea.
After going to sea, he had few opponents and had never been defeated, but he was also lost.
What was his goal?
What should he be?
What use could he be?
Until he t Roger.
The man had given him a goal, a goal to surpass, and for that, Barret had found a reason to live, and at that ti, no one on the ship but Roger could defeat him, even Rayleigh, who had only fought him to a draw.
He was fifteen that year.
If nothing goes wrong, he should stay on this ship until he surpasses Roger. He is only working hard for this goal. Gradually, he is assimilated by Roger’s pirates.
The partners here let him not worry about being betrayed, because there was soone stronger than him there, and as long as Roger was there, everything would be fine.
Seventeen years old… Roger is seriously ill!
After learning this news, Barrett fell into a great shock. In a panic, he challenged Roger, but he still failed.
Roger is still so powerful, that won’t be a problem…
“I’m dying, Barrett…”
But the next year, Barrett would never forget the smile of the man who casually said his death.
He did not understand. He was lost.
We must protect our companions!
Perhaps protecting his companions, for the sake of his companions, Roger might not die…
His battle began to be less decisive. Confused, he was like a wild beast without a goal. He thought that he had beco weaker and began to wonder if Roger was that powerful.
How could a powerful person fall sick and be tortured by a re illness!
He challenged Roger again and still failed, but this ti he quit the Pirates.
If he stayed here any longer, he would continue to be weak, and he would challenge Roger in another way.
Only there is no more chance…
Roger was dead.
The invincible Roger in his heart is dead…
Without a target, Barret began to rampage on the sea, but was eventually defeated by Marine’s Demon Slayer Order.
During his ti in prison, he changed his target.
No one can surpass Roger himself, that is to do what Roger can’t do, that is also a way to surpass Roger!
Defeating those strong n in the sea is what Roger failed to do!
And it was done alone!
The first thing he did after being released from prison was to find Lucilu Kuro, who had left a deep impression on him back then.
Back then, he cut the captain because that knife made the captain discover his illness when he was being treated.
If not for that slash…
Barrett opened his eyes and shouted, “If I don’t surpass you, I can’t beco the strongest, Luciru Kuro!”
He swung his fist at Kuro.
Shua!
Just as his fist was about to hit Kuro’s figure, Kuro’s body suddenly floated up and dodged the punch. With a flash of golden light, he cut through Barret’s neck.
Kuro floated behind Barret and slowly landed on the ground. He stood there on one foot, the other foot drooping on the ground. With his back to Barret, he waved the blade.
Barret touched his neck and found nothing wrong. He turned around and grinned: “Did you miss? Are you afraid of dying with , Lucilu Kuro! You are just so-so! In the sea, you can’t beco the strongest without the determination to die!”
“Stop it…”
Kuro did not look at him and whispered, “I am not a strong man, I am just a Marine who wants to be safe.”
Barrett raised his fist and moved his body, about to attack Kuro.
Kuro didn’t move and continued, “Don’t you think that it’s too tiring to ascend to the supre level? There will always be soone who will surpass you. As long as a person is still human, he can’t be that supre forever. The tis are always changing, and you hold the previous idea until now. Your body is not old, but your heart is old.”
“If you have the ti, maybe you can find a beach to bask in the sun and feel the harmony and tranquility, then your thoughts will change…”
“Of course, this is just my idea, but listen to it and listen carefully…”
“This soft sound of the wind.”
Chi!
Barret’s body stiffened and a big cut appeared on his neck and blood sprayed out like a fountain.
The wounds on his body suddenly burst open, revealing a large amount of blood.
“Uh…”
Barrett swayed and looked at Kuro for a while, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, “The sound of the wind… I heard it.”
His fist still reached out and gently touched Kuro’s back. “You should see my… fist.”
Plop.
As soon as he finished speaking, his body fell down and his huge fist slid down Kuro’s back and he fell to the ground. With a gust of wind, he opened his eyes wide and stared at Kuro’s back. His eyes were mixed with unwillingness, but gradually, the unwillingness in his eyes faded and turned into recognition.
“You win…” he said softly.
Kuro paused for a long ti and was about to shake his head when he suddenly sensed sothing and nodded again. “Sort of…”
After saying this, Barret’s gaze cooled like a stone.
“Lost Beast…”
Kuro let go of Law Ghost and wanted to touch the cigar on his body, but he found that there was no place on his body, and the snow tomatoes were all shattered.
He sighed and said, “Try to be human in your next life and you will find different scenery.”
Barret’s stamina is worse than his.
Because Kuro did not fight with Elite Vice-Admiral and Shichibukai, but Barret did it. The stamina consud was the key.
That stamina is enough for Kuro to use a killing sword move, and he can also dodge Barret’s fist and… still stand.
One move decided the outco.
The aura behind him had beco one with the earth.
It also ans that this person’s life force is completely exhausted.
At this ti, the sun sank in the west and the crescent moon rose.
After four days and three nights of battle.
Kuro, wins.
