Chapter 117: Destroy God Valley! Roger's Purpose
As his words fell.
Everyone present was stunned for a moment.
For a while, no one reacted to the meaning behind Roger's statement.
Even Rayleigh showed a look of surprise.
He was somewhat puzzled why Roger would say such a thing.
Since Rocks was already dead, the others present probably wouldn't do anything to God Valley. Why destroy it completely?
Roger only looked gravely at the distant island.
"That island is far too dangerous."
"Now that its location has been exposed, it must be destroyed."
"Otherwise, sooner or later, a second Rocks will come here."
In Roger's view.
The so-called God Valley was undoubtedly an extremely strong threat.
Whether it was the World Government or pirates—if either side obtained what was discovered on God Valley, it would be bad news for Roger.
If possible,
He hoped to completely deal with whatever was on God Valley right now.
Hearing Roger's words, the white-robed man not far away raised an eyebrow.
Wearing his mask, he spoke coldly.
"Roger, God Valley belongs to the World Government. You have no right to act recklessly."
"Even though you did defeat Rocks, how much strength can you still exert now? Get lost from here immediately!"
As the chief of CP0,
He naturally couldn't allow Roger to run wild here.
Although the Five Elders did have plans to destroy God Valley, there were still many research facilities on the island that hadn't been evacuated.
If Roger was allowed to destroy it,
It would be intolerable for the World Government.
Moreover, although Roger's strength was terrifying, he had just fought Rocks. His injuries looked severe.
As long as CP0 and Marine Headquarters worked together.
Roger would never be able to destroy God Valley!
Roger fell silent for a moment upon hearing the white-robed man.
Just as the other said.
Although he had succeeded in killing Rocks, he had also sustained serious injuries in the process.
Fighting the white-robed man again would be quite forced.
Although Roger—focused entirely on battling Rocks—hadn't paid much attention to Lotte and the white-robed man's fight, from the aura alone.
It was undoubtedly an Admiral-level opponent.
Add to that the support from CP0's position and the Navy—destroying God Valley in front of them would be extremely difficult!
After a brief silence.
Roger suddenly turned his head toward Lotte and Newgate's direction.
With a grave expression, he said deeply.
"Newgate, Lotte—I hope you can help me with this."
"This time, consider it a favor I owe you. But no matter what, that island must be destroyed. That kind of weapon shouldn't exist in this world."
"Whether justice or evil."
As his request rang out.
Newgate and Lotte not far away raised their eyebrows.
For Lotte personally, the injuries he had sustained in his earlier fight with the white-robed man
Had already fully recovered thanks to Hashirama Cells.
His strength was at its peak.
Though he could guess Roger's intentions, this was ultimately someone else's business. There was no need to get further involved.
But since Roger had already asked.
Given their casual drinking-buddy relationship, Lotte wasn't about to sit idly by.
Moreover, he really disliked the white-robed man's attitude. If destroying God Valley could make that guy suffer,
It would be perfect!
Besides, he also had something he wanted to ask this future Pirate King.
"Since you've put it that way, Roger, refusing would be too disrespectful. It's just destroying one God Valley."
"I also think leaving that place behind is a disaster waiting to happen."
Lotte grinned, the corner of his mouth curling up.
He glanced at the masked white-robed man and slowly gripped Flame King and Shodai Kitetsu in his hands.
Whitebeard Newgate also gripped Murakumogiri's blade and laughed heartily.
"Gurararara!"
"In the end, it's just destroying a small island. Nothing difficult for me."
"Roger, just sit back and enjoy the show."
For Newgate—who had developed the Tremor-Tremor Fruit to an extremely high level—destroying an island was child's play.
He also disliked the smug looks on the Navy's faces.
Seeing that Whitebeard Newgate and Lotte had agreed to Roger's request.
The expression beneath the white-robed man's mask darkened.
If it was just a heavily injured Roger, he could handle it easily.
But with the Azure Emperor Lotte and Whitebeard added to the mix, it was a completely different story.
Although with the remaining forces at this stage,
Stopping Lotte and Newgate from reaching God Valley wasn't too difficult.
But preventing them from destroying it
Was far harder than just blocking their path.
After all, both were top cadres who could match Admirals. Going all out to destroy an island would take them mere minutes.
Especially Newgate—
Once his Tremor-Tremor Fruit erupted at full power, God Valley would definitely be obliterated!
Seeing the two agree.
A smile appeared on Roger's face as he gripped Ace's hilt tightly.
"This time I owe you both. Come drink on my ship later—I've collected plenty of fine sake."
Lotte and Newgate joining was great news for Roger.
With the two of them together,
Even the CP0 white-robed man would find it difficult to stop them.
Steel Bone Kong, who had been silent for a while, also raised his head to look at the white-robed man.
"Let them destroy God Valley. If there's any responsibility, I'll bear it. There's no need to keep fighting now."
"This is already our complete victory."
The white-robed man snorted coldly.
Though he desperately wanted to order an encirclement of the remaining Roger Pirates and Lotte's group, the Navy's losses were indeed severe right now.
Continuing the pursuit would bring no benefit.
Even so.
The white-robed man still refused to back down and said gravely.
"This cannot be decided by Roger. I must first consult the Five Elders."
"Steel Bone Kong, take Garp and Sengoku and keep watch on those few."
With that.
The white-robed man took out a golden Den Den Mushi from his robes.
Without hesitation, he dialed it. After a few rings, it was connected.
An old, calm voice came through.
"What is it?"
