One Piece: Fist of the World

Small Garden near the sea:

"Teacher Zephyr, I once heard that two giants were fighting in the Small Garden, and it has been going on for hundreds of years." The island's shadow was already visible, and Ain looked at her teacher standing at the bow and spoke.

"There is such a thing." Zephyr nodded slightly.

"Are they pirates too?"

"That's right. A hundred years ago, a 100 million Beli bounty was offered on their heads!"

"So why hasn't the Navy captured them yet?" Ain looked at Zefa in confusion. The pirates were clearly there, and the Navy was aware of their existence. However, a hundred years later, the pirates were still there, and the Navy still knew of their existence.

Zephyr did not answer his disciple's question, but just looked at the island that was getting closer and closer with deep eyes. Yeah, why? Why didn't they send troops to arrest the pirates, even though they knew they were here? Are they worried that the Giants will retaliate against the World Government? Or are they worried that they will no longer be able to recruit Giant soldiers from Elbaf? In short, it's nothing more than what the upper echelons are considering. However, just because of these trade-offs and considerations, can we turn a blind eye to what is happening in front of us? Can we just ignore the existence of pirates? If this is the case, how can I be worthy of the justice I bear? Zephyr's eyes became more and more determined, and his fists were clenched tightly.

"Then let me arrest them!"

The Final Duel's End and a Sudden Attack

BANG!! It was another all-out attack, with Brogy and Dorroy's attacks landing on each other simultaneously, knocking them back repeatedly.

"I can't break this move!" Watching the battle between the two giants, Rhodes whispered. These two giants also came from Elbaf and received the same training since childhood. Even after going out to sea, they were both captains of the Giant Pirates, and they later fought on this island for a hundred years, with more than 70,000 battles. After so many years, they had become very familiar with each other, both in terms of fighting methods and fighting habits. The intelligence obtained from their weapons yesterday could also confirm this.

"I'm afraid this will be another battle where both sides suffer losses and there's no clear winner." Rhodes continued, "The only difference is probably that both of them have a stronger desire to win. I'm afraid they will fight to the very last moment, until they are exhausted."

Under the gaze of Rhodes and his companions, the two giants fought with all their might. Even though they couldn't even hold their weapons, they still didn't back down and continued to attack each other with their fists. Until finally, their two fists hit each other simultaneously. Compared to the beginning, their fists had become weaker and weaker, but they made the two men involuntarily take a few steps back, and then both fell to the ground.

"70,534 fights, 70,534 draws, and in the end, there is still no winner..." Brogy lay on his back, watching the clouds passing by in the sky. He was completely powerless, and the battle between the two men that had lasted for a century ended without a clear victor.

"It's over. I'll treat them." Seeing the two giants who were completely exhausted, Law stood up and walked towards them. Both of them had wounds of varying sizes all over their bodies. Although they were not fatal, they could not be left untreated.

"Massive~~" Just as Rhodes and his group were walking towards the two giants, a voice suddenly rang out. Immediately afterwards, the entire forest seemed to come alive, with countless vines dancing wildly and wrapping around everyone. Dorroy and Brogy were the focus of the vines' attention. In just a moment, the two were entangled by the dense vines.

"This is!" Feeling the vines entangle around his body, Brogy's face changed, and he tried to break free. However, the battle just now had completely exhausted him, and he was unable to break free of the vines that were entangled around his body. He could only watch as layer after layer of vines came around, tightly wrapping around his body and tying him to the ground. Dorroy, on the other side, was in the same predicament, instantly tied up by the suddenly appearing vines and pinned to the ground.

"What's this?"

"Danger!"

"Too hard!" The crazy vines also took care of Rhodes and his group, and in the blink of an eye, Gray and the others were tied up.

"Navy!" The moment the vines entangled him, Rhodes reacted and dodged them by continuously moving his body. Finally, he remained suspended in the air with Moonwalk, looking down with a serious expression. This ability seems familiar, as if it is the ability of the Navy in a certain movie. And the boss of this movie...

"Ha~~" A burly figure suddenly appeared in the air, and with a chuckle, a horrific blow instantly landed on Rhodes's body.

BANG!!! The pitch-black fist, like a cannonball, even created a sonic boom in the air and hit Rhodes hard.

Boom!! Rhodes's body was knocked away in an instant and hit the ground with a loud bang, leaving a huge deep pit.

Rhodes vs. Zephyr

"Your punches are really powerful, Zephyr!!" Rhodes stood up and looked at the purple-haired, burly man not far from him. Former Admiral of the Marine Headquarters, Zephyr! Although he covered his body with Armament Haki the moment he was hit, Rhodes was still severely injured by that attack.

"It's okay for an old man like you to sneak attack against a young man like me without following martial ethics, but you actually used the internal destruction of Armament Haki the moment you attacked. It's too outrageous!"

"It's been too long since I last fought. My punch just now was too light." After taking a look at Rhodes, who just spat out a mouthful of blood, Zephyr clenched his right fist and said in a deep voice. In the pirate attack three years ago, almost all of his students were killed, with only Ain and Binz left. He had his right arm cut off by the pirates. His right hand was now a prosthetic fitted by the Naval Scientific Corps. Although Dr. Vegapunk's skills were very advanced and the prosthetic limbs he wore did not affect his daily life at all, it was still a bit inconvenient during battle. Especially the Haki flow, which was not as good as his original arm. However, if it is just to deal with these pirates in front of us, it is enough. He is the former admiral of the Marine Headquarters, Black Arm Zephyr!

"Everyone, the rest of the Navy is in your hands!" Rhodes stared at Zephyr closely, not daring to relax even a little. "Zephyr, let me handle it!"

"Humph, you're really brave, you blue-eyed brat!"

"Ah?" Rhodes's eyebrows twitched slightly, and anger accumulated in his heart. "You Navy guys really know how to piss me off. Don't mention this damn nickname in front of me again!"

Boom! With a sudden step, Rhodes left another deep footprint on the already cracked ground.

Whoosh— Rhodes's body instantly appeared in front of Zephyr, with a strong Haki flowing from his tightly clenched fists.

"Split the Sky!!"

Boom!! Zephyr's fist also blasted out suddenly. Before the two fists collided, a violent impact erupted, and terrifying waves continued to spread around.

<><><><><>

The century-long duel between Brogy and Dorroy concludes in a final, exhausted draw, just as the Navy arrives. Former Marine Admiral Zephyr and his subordinates launch a surprise attack, utilizing vine-like abilities to immobilize everyone. Zephyr himself targets Rhodes, landing a powerful, Haki-infused punch. Undeterred by the injury and infuriated by his nickname, Rhodes challenges Zephyr directly, initiating a high-stakes confrontation.
