Chapter 162： their own way

Boom!

The flames and thunder intertwined, blooming with dazzling brilliance, as if the sun burst in it.

The power of Thunder Dragon is extremely condensed and superior to quality, but the power of Jinghuoyan is boundless, it is a great move that can be equal to the violent pheasant mouth of General Qingzhi, and the violent flames are endless, as if it can drown everything.

In the collision of thunder and fire, Rhodes and the two were not idle.

They fought fiercely and collided constantly. In the dazzling light, only shadows could be seen, as if two gods were colliding.

Whoosh!

After dozens or hundreds of confrontations, the two suddenly separated, as fast as lightning, each retreated dozens of meters, and faced each other in a scorched earth.

Rhode's face was burned red and sweat profusely. This was affected by the high temperature of the flame, but there was no injury, but the physical consumption was a bit large.

There was a bloodstain on Ace's chest. This was a time he couldn't dodge and was brushed by Rhodes' blade.

The ground was a mess, with gravel and gravel everywhere. The surface seemed to have been hit by a meteor. There was a huge deep crater with dense cracks.

In the distance, when Nami and the others saw this scene, they were amazed. It turns out that the sea powerhouses are called monsters. Can destroy!

"That's it."

Ace took two breaths and said to Rhodes.

Rhode nodded and stopped there.

Continue to fight, let Ace use Yandi, or he uses Sonic Slash, that is a situation of life and death, if it is just a discussion, it is completely unnecessary.

"As expected of the man who can defeat Sabo, the man who shakes the world, you are very powerful."

Ace came over, with a hint of amazement on his face, and his heart trembled slightly. He boasted that he was extremely talented and overwhelmed the contemporary generation, and he had never seen a peer who was stronger than him.

But at this moment, he felt the pressure from Rhodes, a guy who was two years younger than him, and he couldn't suppress this extremely fast Dragon Slaying Swordsman at all.

Rhodes sheathed his sword, smiled and said:

"Even you are so difficult to deal with, it seems that I am still a little far from challenging the Four Emperors."

His tone was casual, 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.

Rhode felt that if he really fought, he would only have a 30% win rate at most.

First of all, the high temperature of the flame consumes too much physical energy, and Rhodes' physical advantage over Ace cannot be exerted.

Secondly, Rhodes does not have the lore effect on Ace, and Sonic Slash has the ability to kill people like Green Pepper and Hutt, but a natural ability like Ace has limited effect.

Armored domineering can indeed capture the body of those who attack the natural ability.

However, those with natural abilities can also avoid damage by turning the parts that are about to be attacked into real fire, ice, etc.

Hurt can react to Rhodes' sonic slash, and Ace guesses it.

Of course.

This kind of calculation is always a calculation. In a real battle, various factors such as the environment and mentality will have an impact on the final result, and even a single mistake will lead to the difference between life and death.

This is the sharpness of Jianhao, unlike Luffy's other tasks, even if you seize the opportunity to hit the hammer, the opponent may still get up and fight for a few more rounds.

But from this battle.

Rhodes also roughly understood where his current strength was.

Ace, who has not yet fully matured, is probably similar to Doflamingo, and is second only to the Admiral.

And if Rhodes can fight with him to this point, at the level of "quasi-general", he should have reached the upper middle class!

If the physique and domineering can be improved a little more, they should be able to enter the echelon of Doflamingo completely.

While he was thinking, Ace was already laughing out loud:

"Challenge the Four Emperors??"

Maybe it's because of Sabo, and it's a little bit of a stranger. Ace's impression of Rhodes is not bad.

He patted Rhodes on the shoulder and said:

"I don't know about the other three, but don't challenge Dad."

After finishing speaking, Ace sighed and shook his head. His face was full of the expression "I can't look back on the past". He walked towards Luffy and the others. He was about to leave.

Although Ace was very happy to meet Luffy and 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 the others watched from a distance.

"Oh, right."

Suddenly, Nami turned her head to look at Rhodes and said, "The murloc from Cocosia Village last time, there is still one who didn't die."

"Octopus Hachi?"

Rhodes recalled for a moment, and then said casually.

"Huh? How do you know!"

Nami was taken aback.

It stands to reason that these two have never even seen each other.

"My eyes can see through everything."

Rhodes smiled slightly.

Although I didn't care about it at the beginning, it's easy to remember as long as I think about it for a while.

It is estimated that Xiao Ba just finished delivering Colonel Mouse and hadn't returned to the Evil Dragon Paradise yet, and escaped by luck.

"How can it be?"

Nami obviously didn't believe it.

Unexpectedly, Rhodes casually stated three data:

"95, 55, 85."

"you you…"

Nami's face turned red at the time, her fingers trembling and pointing at Rhodes, her pretty face was full of shame and anger.

Chopper asked naively from below:

"what is this?"

"Nami's secret."

Rhodes said with a half-smile.

And this time, UU reading www. Ace in the distance from uukanshu.com has also finished saying goodbye. He stepped on the special boat and quickly sailed into the distance.

"This time, we will see you at the top."

Rhode's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what Rayleigh and other members of the Roger Pirates thought, whether they would participate in the battle of the top.

"Maybe it's time to check."

At this moment, after a brief discussion, Luffy and the others found that Alabasta was too peaceful, and there seemed to be no place worth taking risks, so they decided to set sail for the next island.

Luffy, Zoro Sanji and others are full of fighting spirit.

Although Alabasta has not experienced any exciting adventures this time, it is very meaningful to witness the battle between Rhodes and Ace, a sea powerhouse, at least it has greatly broadened the horizons of the Straw Hats.

Know how high the mountains are and how deep the seas are.

Of course, Luffy is an exception.

"Let's go, I can't wait!"

Sanji carried the ingredients and urged.

"…"

Zoro glanced at him, this guy probably saw that something was wrong with Nami.

At this moment, Nami was standing in front of Rhodes pretty, and her fair face was full of entanglement and hesitation.

Rhode couldn't see the girl's thoughts, he stretched out his hand, rubbed Nami's bright orange hair, and smiled softly:

"Go and make your dreams come true, little one."

Nami was slightly shocked when she heard the words, raised her head slightly, and looked at the smiling face she often remembered after going out to sea, her expression gradually calmed down, but she snorted again:

"You are the little guy!"

"I'm the same age as you!"

She folded her arms around her chest, very unhappy that Rhode had been treating her like a little sister.

"Of course, Miss Nami is old enough."

"Mouth!"

Nami turned her face away.
