Galisini Island is one of the countless uninhabited islands in the New World.
As an uninhabited island with a name, it once had its own glory belonging to 'Gallisni'.
It is said that this was the base of a kingdom in ancient times. Eventually, the kingdom was destroyed for unknown reasons. The remains of the "Kingdom of Galisni" can still be found on the island. However, after archaeologists completed their analysis of this place, it became one of the uninhabited islands that no one cares about.
Since it is one of the uninhabited islands lacking in resources, it is often used as a dueling arena by strong men.
Therefore, various traces of battle can be seen everywhere on the island.
And today, this place will become the duel venue for two super powerful men.
Under the gaze of some powerful men staying on this uninhabited island, a large three-masted sailing ship with a silver body, a white horse on the bow, and a flag of three elemental lights, which was already famous all over the world, slowly descended from the sky, causing those guys who recognized the "Flask" to change their expressions in shock.
"Here, here…"
The sailboat landed on the southern coast of Galisini Island. When it descended to a certain height, a figure was seen waving his hands towards the Flask.
"Zoro, Barrett, long time no see!!"
Kalina and the other girls stood by the side of the ship, waving and greeting Zoro and Barrett with his arms folded, with bright smiles.
"Gurgle gurgle… Hehe, Kalina, Nami, you've become even more beautiful!"
When the "Flask" landed on the sea, Zoro took a gourd from his belt, took a sip of wine, and grinned at Dewey and others.
call out!
Nami appeared next to Zoro in a flash of lightning. She patted his back like a big sister and said with a smile, "You have grown a lot taller and your aura has changed. Judging from your appearance, you should have mastered "Life Return", right?"
"ah..."
Zoro nodded.
"Zoro, Barrett, long time no see."
At this time, Dewey also came down from the ladder and smiled at Zoro and Barrett.
A year has passed, and 43-year-old Barrett has not changed much, but 19-year-old Zoro has changed greatly.
Perhaps it was because he had mastered the "Life Return" that caused his stature to become several centimeters taller than in the original, reaching 1.85 meters.
His green short hair had grown a little longer, and he wore a green robe of the same color as his hair, with a red belt around his waist, and three famous swords of the large sharp sword level hanging on his waist, which was extremely luxurious. He held a wine gourd in his hand, and exuded a beast-like aura from his whole body, which was similar to Dewey's pressure that was always in an active state, formed by the sharpness of a swordsman and a unique ghostly aura – "wildness".
There is no doubt that under Barrett's guidance, Zoro has undergone a tremendous transformation this year.
Seeing the current Sauron, Dewey felt filled with relief.
This beast-like monster really shouldn't be grown in a greenhouse. Only in the 'wild' can his potential be stimulated.
"Long time no see, Dewey. You won't blame me for drinking without your consent, right?" Zoro greeted Dewey and teased with a smile.
"Now you can drink as much as you want."
Dewey didn't care about Sauron's teasing. Instead, he smiled and said, "I have prepared a lot of famous wines for you, and even some special wines from Daughter Island. They are all in the wine cellar. You can get them anytime."
"Really? Then I'll go up!"
Zoro suddenly opened his mouth wide, his eyes flashing with the same golden light as Nami seeing the treasure, and then he ran towards the "Flask" with the wine gourd.
At this time, Barrett also walked in front of Dewey, looking down at him with his tall figure, his eyes full of horror, grinning at Dewey and saying, "You monster boy, it's really… incredible!"
There is no doubt that Barrett was shocked by Dewey's strength.
If you cultivate "Observation Haki" to a certain level, you can judge the opponent's strength by sensing his breath.
Although "Devil Fruit Users" are not included here, Dewey's physical changes alone are enough to shock Barrett to the point of being speechless.
How long has it been?
How many years did it take me to build this body?
Barrett had never expected that the 'one-year agreement' that he considered to be a way to offset the life-saving grace would actually be fulfilled by the other party.
At the same time, Barrett felt extremely excited.
He pursued the ultimate power, in order to surpass Roger and become the strongest in the world. But since he was caught up so easily, didn't it mean that he still had a long way to go to become the strongest in the world?
If this man can defeat me, doesn't that mean I have one more goal?
Although they hadn't fought yet, Barrett felt his blood boiling.
A demonic aura like that of Shura emanated from his body, forcing Kalina and the other girls to retreat.
Barrett stared at Dewey and grinned, "As agreed, let's fight!"
"It looks like you can't wait."
Dewey looked up at the majestic Barrett, his eyes showing a hint of fighting spirit, and said, "In that case, let's change places!"
boom–!
Soon after, a deafening bang exploded from the center of "Galishini Island".
The surrounding air shrank densely, forming a huge cyclone that spread out, shattering the flowers, plants, trees, and even rocks of varying heights in all directions.
Then, the domineering aura that created dark red lightning in the air transformed into light shields of different colors, covering half of "Galisni Island" and knocking out those who were nearby or preparing to escape from "Galisni Island".
The few strong men who did not fainted looked at the direction of the collision of the Conqueror's Haki with cold sweat on their foreheads: "What kind of monster is this!?"
The "Flask" was floating in the air. Kalina, the other girls, and Zoro were lying on the side of the ship, watching Dewey and Barrett who were fist-bumping.
"Such strong Haki…Did Dewey's Haki and Taijutsu become so powerful?"
Looking at Dewey, who was smaller than the bigger one but not at all inferior, Zoro paused in his drinking and said in amazement.
"This is just the tip of the iceberg, Boss."
Kalina glanced at Nami and asked with a smile, "Nami, how long do you think they will fight this time?"
"That depends on when they use their abilities." Nami pondered for a moment and gave an uncertain number: "If they only use physical skills, it will take at least five days. If they use their abilities, it should be about three days. After all… Barrett is not a nature-type."
