Chapter 162: their own way
Rumble!
The flames and thunder were intertwined, emitting dazzling light, as if the sun had exploded in it.
The power of the Thunder Dragon is extremely condensed, and it is better than the quality, but the power of the Mirror Fire Flame is boundless. It is a great move that can equalize the beauty of General Aokiji's pheasant. The violent flames are endless and seem to be able to drown everything.
In the collision of thunder and fire, Rhodes and the others were not idle either.
They fought fiercely and collided constantly. In the dazzling light, they could only see shadows, like two gods colliding.
Whoosh!
After dozens or hundreds of confrontations, the two suddenly separated, as fast as lightning, each retreating for dozens of meters, confronting each other in a scorched earth.
Rhodes's face was burned red and sweated profusely. This was affected by the high temperature of the flames, but there was no injury, but it was just a little exhausted.
Ace had a blood mark on his chest. This was a time when he could not dodge and was wiped by Rhode's blade.
The ground was in chaos, with gravel and gravel everywhere. The surface of the earth seemed to be hit by a meteorite, with a huge deep pit and dense cracks.
In the distance, when Nami and others saw this scene, they all felt amazed. It turned out that the powerful sea man was called a monster, but it was just a discussion. If they really let go of the fight, wouldn’t even the island be destroyed!
"Let's just stop here."
Ace gasped for two breaths and said to Rhode.
Rhode nodded and stopped.
If you continue to fight, let Ace use Yan Emperor, or he uses the Sonic Slash, that is a situation of life and death. If you just have a competition, there is no need.
"You are a man who can defeat Sabo and be a terrifying man in the world. You are very powerful."
Ace walked over with a hint of amazement on his face and his mind was slightly shaken. He was so talented that he was superior to the present, and had never seen a peer who was better than him.
But at this moment, he felt the pressure from Rhode, a guy who was two years younger than him, and he could not suppress the extremely fast Dragon-Slaying Sword Master.
Rhode inserted his sword into the sheath and smiled:
"Even you are so difficult to deal with, it seems that I am a little far from challenging the Four Emperors."
He spoke casually, but he was evaluating the battle in his heart.
The battle didn't last long, just less than two hours. Rhodes didn't use his tricks, and Ace didn't kill him either.
Rhodes felt that if he really fought, he would only have a winning rate of 30% at most.
First of all, the high flame temperature consumes too much physical energy, and Rhodes' physical strength advantage over Ace cannot be exerted.
Secondly, Rhode does not have the ultimate killing effect against Ace. Sonic Slash has the ability to kill characters like Green Pepper and Hurt, but natural abilities like Ace have limited effects.
Armed domineering aura can indeed capture and attack the body of a natural-type capable person.
However, natural-type abilities can also avoid damage by transforming the parts that are about to be attacked into real flames, ice, etc.
Hurt could even react to Rhode's Sonic Slash, and Ace probably would do it too.
certainly.
This kind of calculation is always a calculation. When a real battle, the environment, mentality and other factors will have an impact on the final result. Even a slight mistake will lead to a difference in life and death.
This is the sharpness of the swordsman. Unlike Luffy's mission, even if he seizes the opportunity and beats the hammer, the opponent may still get up and fight for a few more rounds.
But from this battle.
Rhodes also roughly understands the level of his current strength.
Ace, who is not yet fully mature, is probably similar to Doflamingo, and is second only to the Admiral.
And Rhodes can fight him to this point, at the level of "quasi-general", he should have reached the upper level!
If your physical domineering spirit can be improved a little more, you should be able to completely enter the echelon of Doflamingo.
While he was thinking, Ace was already laughing out loud:
"Challenge the Four Emperors?"
Perhaps it was because of Saab, and it was a bit like not knowing each other without fighting. Ace had a good impression of Rhodes.
He patted Rhodes on the shoulder and said:
"I don't know much about the other three, but don't challenge my dad."
After saying that, Ace sighed and shook his head, his face full of "the past is unbearable to look back on", and he headed towards Luffy and others, and he was about to say goodbye.
Although Ace was very happy to meet Luffy and meet Sabo again, he would never forget the purpose of his trip.
Some things are absolutely intolerable!
...
port.
The three Luffy brothers are saying goodbye.
Rhodes, Nami and others were watching from a distance.
"Oh, by the way."
Suddenly, Nami turned to look at Rhode and said, "The last time there was another fishman in Kokosia Village that was not dead."
"Octopus Xiaoba?"
Rhode recalled it a little and said casually.
"Huh? How do you know!"
Nami was frightened at that time.
It is logical that these two people have never even met each other.
"My eyes can see through everything."
Rhode smiled slightly.
Although I didn't care at the beginning, it was still easy to remember just by thinking about it a little bit.
It is probably because Xiao Ba had just sent Colonel Mouse and had not returned to the Dragon Paradise, so he escaped by chance.
"How is that possible?"
Nami obviously doesn't believe it.
Unexpectedly, Rhodes randomly revealed three data:
“95,55,85.”
"You, you..."
Nami's face turned red at that time, her fingers trembled at Rhode, her pretty face full of shame, anger and anger.
Chopper asked naively below:
"What is this?"
"Nami's secret."
Rhode said with a smile.
At this time, Ace in the distance had already said goodbye, stepped onto the special boat, and quickly drove into the distance.
"This is my departure, I'll be goodbye."
Rhode's eyes flashed, and he didn't know what members of the Roger Pirates such as Rayley thought and whether they would participate in the battle above.
"Maybe it should be confirmed."
At this moment, after a brief discussion, Luffy and others found that Alabastan was too peaceful and seemed to have nothing worth taking risks, so they decided to set sail for the next island.
Luffy, Zoro Sanji and others were all full of fighting spirit.
Although Alabastan did not experience any exciting adventure this time, it was still very meaningful to witness the battle between Rhodes and Ace as the strong men in the sea, at least it greatly broadened the horizons of the straw hats.
Know how high the mountains are and how deep the sea is.
Of course, Luffy is exceptional.
"I can't wait to set off!"
Sanji carried the ingredients and urged him repeatedly.
“…”
Zoro glanced at him. This guy probably saw something was wrong with Nami.
At this time, Nami stood in front of Rhodes pretty, her fair face full of entanglement and hesitation.
Rhode couldn't see the girl's little thoughts. He stretched out his hand, rubbed Nami's bright orange hair, and chuckled:
"Go and realize your dream, little guy."
Nami was slightly shocked when she heard this, she raised her head slightly, looked at the smiling face in front of her that she often remembered after going out to sea, and her expression gradually calmed down, but she snorted again:
"You're the little guy!"
"I'm as big as you!"
She held her chest with her hands, and was very unhappy. Rhode always regarded her as a little sister.
"Of course, Miss Nami is old enough."
"Hao!"
Nami, please don't look at her face.
