At the top of the broken building.
Ficheux Erman chewed the peanuts and turned to look at Ross. He said with some hatred, "400 million Berries was lost by you."
Ross has been a Pirate Hunter for a long time before. Naturally, he has heard of Ficheux Erman who stands at the top of Pirate Hunter. He looked at Ficheux Erman and said:
"It's just 400 million Berries. It should be nothing for you. Speaking of which, it should be very boring for a Pirate Hunter to reach your level."
Ficheux Erman tilted his head and said, "Yeah, it's a little boring."
"It's better to change a small goal, such as conquering the world … come to my ship." Ross smiled faintly and sent an invitation to Ficheux Erman.
His ship does lack a powerful gunner.
"Ha? What did you say? "
Ficheux Erman looked at Ross speechlessly and said, "I know you, Ghost Hand Ross with a bounty of 440 million Berries, but what about conquering the world, are you crazy?"
As he spoke, he pinched a peanut and flicked it at Ross.
Sneer!
This ordinary peanut, at the moment when he flicked it, showed a very strange superposition of speed, surpassing the speed of sound in an instant, and more than twice!
Speed means power. In front of such speed, even a peanut has a terrible lethality!
Buzz!!
After the Devil Fruit awakened, the power of distortion was stimulated by Ross. The peanut invaded the area of three feet in front of him at a rapid speed, then suddenly slowed down, moved forward inch by inch, and was finally crushed into powder.
Ficheux Erman looked at this scene with slight surprise and said, "It seems that I underestimated you, but even if you have such strength, conquering the sea is still a little too impractical."
"Well, your bounty will definitely be more than 440 million. I won't bother you anymore." Ficheux Erman threw another peanut into his mouth and disappeared in a flash.
A few seconds after he disappeared.
Robin looked at the direction where he disappeared and said with a dignified look, "So fast."
"It's very fast, but it's not my own speed. It should be the ability of Devil Fruit."
Ross nodded and thought a little: "It can accelerate the peanut to that level in an instant. If I'm not wrong, it should be Paramecia Speed Fruit."
There are many fruits of the time branch. In Ross's memory, there are Slow Fruit, Retrograde Fruit, and so on. This Fast Fruit should correspond to Slow Fruit. One is to slow down the speed, the other is to increase the speed.
And on the peanut just now, there is also a strong enough Armament Haki attached to it and the penetrating power is extremely strong.
"Even if he can't beat a Marine Admiral, at least he's about the same as me now. It's hard to tell who wins and who loses without a fight."
Ross judged Ficheux Erman's strength in his heart.
With the speed of the peanut just now, he didn't have time to raise his arm to resist it. However, after the awakening of the Distortion Fruit, his whole body can stimulate the power of distortion to form a wall of distortion. If he doesn't break this wall of distortion, it can't cause any serious harm to him.
Even if he could penetrate it, his speed would be slowed down, giving him enough time to dodge, such as that peanut just now.
This was also the method that allowed him to escape from Aokiji's pursuit. Otherwise, he would have been caught by Aokiji long ago.
"My speed is still a little slow."
Ross murmured and with a move of his mind, he called out the interface of the Talent System.
After the awakening of the Distortion Fruit, although the power of distortion has increased a lot, because it can be released outside the body, the burden on the body has been reduced a little. The fruit and physique are balanced again, so there is no need for a lot of Physical Enhancement.
After a little thought, Ross put 40 proficiency points on Agility Enhancement.
Agility Enhancement: 260 (Top Level Strengthening)
Physical Enhancement: 400 (Top Level Strengthening)
Spirit Heart: 0 (Basic Level Strengthening)
Tenacious: 50 (Mid-Level Strengthening)
After increasing Agility by 40 points, the distance between his body speed and Aokiji's has been narrowed a lot. Even if he is still not as good as Aokiji, he will not fall into too big a disadvantage in frontal combat.
As for the remaining 50 proficiency points, Ross hesitated for a while.
Now the Distortion Fruit has reached 510 proficiency points and it has reached a balance with his physique. If he continues to go up, he will have to allocate it to Distortion Fruit and Physical Enhancement, which will not improve much.
In contrast, whether these 50 proficiency points are put on Observation Haki, Armament Haki, or Tenacious and Spirit Heart of the General Department, they can break through the current stage and upgrade to Mid-Level or High-Level Strengthening, achieving a huge improvement in a single aspect.
Thinking.
Ross suddenly thought of something and immediately made a decision to put 50 proficiency points on Observation Haki.
Buzz!!
The golden light flashed and the Battle Talent Interface changed for a while before finally stopping.
Firearms Shooting: 50
Close-Combat Fighting: 100
Distortion Fruit: 510
Soru of Marine's Rokushiki: 0
Kami-e (Paper Drawing) of Marine's Rokushiki: 0
Marine's Rokushiki's Geppō (Moonwalk): 0
Observation Haki: 100
Armament Haki: 50
As the data freezes, Ross clearly feels that the range of his Observation Haki's perception has increased by a large margin and the details that he can capture have also increased by a large margin.
When he fought against Aokiji before, in the state of activating Spirit Heart, he concentrated and used his Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki to capture Aokiji's full speed movement.
If he encounters Kizaru, he won't be able to do it without enough Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki.
This is the Sabaody Archipelago and the possibility of encountering Kizaru is not small. With the 50 points of Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki and 40 points of Agility Enhancement, he can keep up with the speed of Aokiji and he can respond to Kizaru without relying on the power of distortion.
"Robin, inform Laffitte, you go back to the ship first."
Now that his position has been exposed, Marine Admiral is very likely to arrive quickly. If it is Kizaru, he is not afraid, but it is not so easy to protect Robin and others. Laffitte and Robin and others are still a little weak.
As for himself … He doesn't mind fighting with an Admiral. It would be better if he could kill a few tenryubito and make the government and Marine senior officials furious.
Now he is no longer a small figure that the World Government and Marine can manipulate at will!
… …
At the same time, Marine Headquarters.
In an office on the top floor, Sengoku was standing in the center of the room, listening to the report of his subordinates and frowning slightly. Just then, Kizaru, wearing a justice cloak, came in.
Looking at Kizaru who came in, Sengoku nodded slightly at him and said, "Ghost Hand Ross appeared in the Sabaody Archipelago and killed one of the Supernovas, Strange Guest Byron."
"The guy who is defined as a vicious criminal is constantly killing pirates." Kizaru went to the coffee table, poured a cup of tea, took a sip and responded with a drawn-out tone.
Sengoku's face turned black in an instant, but what Kizaru said was true.
"Although those pirates can indeed be sentenced to death, it is a contempt for the government to deprive them of their lives without a trial by law, and it is still a bad character!"
"That's true. Since he appeared in the Sabaody Archipelago, we can't sit back and do nothing. Otherwise, the government will condemn us again. I'll go there."
Kizaru took another sip of tea, stood up, and walked outside.
If he wants to deal with Yonkō (Four Emperors), he will definitely drag it as long as he can, but to deal with the existence other than Yonkō (Four Emperors), it's just a casual trip for him.
Catching them is naturally a credit and there is no loss if he can't catch them. Besides, Ross and others can escape from Aokiji's hands and they may not be able to escape from his hands.
