I’m the suit thug from the Rocks Pirates! Chapter 025

[ 038] Roger and Rayleigh’s Shock!

The straw-hatted man was none other than Gol D. Roger, the future Pirate King who would single-handedly usher in the Great Pirate Era.

At this time, Roger was similar to Garp.

Both were still young, not yet having reached the pinnacle of their power.

But even so.

The Roger Pirates already had a considerable reputation.

Even if they had just arrived in the New World from the Four Seas.

In the past, they would have caused quite a stir in the New World.

However…

The stir belonging to the Roger Pirates had been completely overshadowed by the newspaper in Roger’s hand.

No one in the New World was talking about the Roger Pirates.

Instead, they were all inquiring about the young man who had made the arrogant Celestial Dragons kneel and beg for mercy.

What kind of a person was he!

Even the future Pirate King Roger couldn’t avoid having such thoughts.

“Roger, it seems you’re interested in this guy too!”

A teasing voice came from behind Roger.

Roger, holding the newspaper, turned his head.

The one speaking was his vice-captain, Silvers Rayleigh, who would later be known as the Dark King.

Rayleigh held an exquisite wine bottle, a strange smile on his face.

As the vice-captain, Rayleigh could be said to know Roger best.

Every time he showed such an expression.

It meant that someone had piqued his interest.

Their shipmate, Jabba, who was only below the two of them.

That’s how he joined their crew!

However, if Roger wanted to recruit Luo Ye, the difficulty would probably be immeasurably higher.

After all, even arrogant Celestial Dragons would kneel and beg for mercy.

From this, one could imagine Luo Ye’s uniqueness!

Roger laughed loudly after hearing Rayleigh’s teasing.

“Hahahaha, I just want to see what kind of ability he possesses.”

“To make even the incredibly foolish Celestial Dragons kneel!”

As he spoke, Roger’s face showed a mocking expression.

He had long witnessed how foolish Celestial Dragons could be.

And no matter what dangerous situation they faced.

In the eyes of the Celestial Dragons, it seemed that no one would dare to harm them, no matter who they were.

The reason why his Roger Pirates had such a reputation before entering the New World.

Besides his strength and the power of his crew members.

A big reason was that he had decisively killed a Celestial Dragon back then!

But even so.

That Celestial Dragon had not lowered his “noble” head before his death.

Therefore, it was perfectly normal for Roger to be curious about Luo Ye!

Rayleigh shook his head slightly, regretting.

“It’s a pity he’s a member of the Rocks Pirates, otherwise, you might have had a chance to recruit him successfully.”

“As for now, he probably wouldn’t look down on a pirate crew like ours, who have just arrived in the New World.”

Hearing this, Roger’s face not only showed no sign of dejection.

Instead, his entire body was instantly filled with fighting spirit.

Since the day Roger set sail, his goal had been to stand at the top of this world.

Now, at the top of the New World’s food chain, was the Sea Emperor Rocks!

As a fellow member of the D. family, Roger never believed he would be weaker than Rocks!

Roger said with a smile.

“Don’t worry, Rayleigh, it won’t be long before we have a conflict with the Rocks Pirates.”

“That’s when our pirate crew will truly make a name for ourselves in the New World!”

Roger, speaking these words, exuded an overbearing aura.

The pirates who had come to the New World now.

Except for those who wanted to defect to Rocks, probably everyone aimed to defeat Rocks.

Whether these guys were ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.

Or whether they had absolute confidence in their own strength.

Ultimately, it was because Rocks’ reputation was too great.

It was like a mountain pressing down on all ambitious pirates.

No matter what confidence other pirates had in their hearts.

Once they truly had to confront Rocks, the gap would truly be revealed.

But for Roger.

He not only did not fear Rocks’ title as the Sea Emperor.

He even looked forward to meeting and fighting Rocks.

Rayleigh, who knew Roger’s personality well, couldn’t help but curl his lips when he saw his expression.

Roger was always like this.

Whenever he talked about challenging Rocks, the Sea Emperor, he would become extremely excited.

Making people like Rayleigh also eager for a confrontation with the Rocks Pirates.

However, in Rayleigh’s heart.

Besides excitement, there was also a faint sense of unease.

Rayleigh never doubted that he and Jabba could help Roger successfully stand at the top of the New World.

But since the opponent was someone as terrifyingly strong as Rocks.

They couldn’t afford to be complacent in the slightest!

Just then, Jabba, the third-in-command of the Roger Pirates, walked over with a brand new bounty poster in his hand.

Jabba held up the bounty poster and spoke in a strange tone.

“Roger, Rayleigh, there’s new news about the Rocks Pirates.”

As his words fell, Roger and Rayleigh simultaneously turned their heads to look at Jabba.

Jabba didn’t keep them in suspense.

“The Rocks Pirates have a new cadre, the guy in the newspaper you’re holding.”

“Moreover, Silver Axe, one of the cadres, was killed by him right in front of Rocks.”

Upon hearing this, Roger and Rayleigh exchanged glances.

They could both see the shock in each other’s eyes.

One must know that the reason why the Rocks Pirates had their current status.

Besides Rocks’ own powerful strength, those cadres were crucial.

Every cadre of the Rocks Pirates.

Could be considered a powerful figure in the New World.

Yet, Silver Axe, a cadre, was killed?

And most importantly, Silver Axe was killed right in front of Rocks?

Jabba looked at their expressions and handed them the bounty poster.

“Not only that.”

“Look at this guy’s bounty.”

“He alone is even more than all of our bounties combined!”*

[ 039] A Part-Timer? An Interesting Pirate Crew!

“Gyahahahaha, those guys from the Marines and the World Government have finally recognized the threat and terror of that kid Luo Ye!”

Golden Lion Shiki held a freshly issued bounty poster.

He couldn’t help but burst into laughter as he looked at it.

As expected of the guy he had his eyes on.

He had only participated in one battle between the Rocks Pirates and the Marines.

Yet, his bounty had already soared to such a level.

In fact, looking at the entire Rocks Pirates.

Apart from Rocks, only he, Shiki, and Edward Newgate could surpass Luo Ye’s bounty.

This happening.

Meant that in the eyes of the Marines and the World Government, the threat Luo Ye could pose was unmatched by few others!

In this way.

Luo Ye, who had just become a cadre of the Rocks Pirates, had already gained an extremely high status among pirates.

The title “Suit Thug” was truly solidified!

Yes.

The name on Luo Ye’s bounty poster.

Was precisely [Suit Thug – Luo Ye]

Clearly, Rocks’ words back in the Esreia Kingdom had left a very deep impression on Kong the Iron Fist.

Luo Ye was truly worthy of the title “Suit Thug”!

Moreover, Shiki had already figured out Luo Ye’s battle achievements in the Esreia Kingdom.

Even Garp, whom he considered very troublesome.

His iron fists were almost roasted meat in front of Luo Ye’s flames.

When he first learned of this news, Shiki almost cried with laughter!

Not only that.

Due to the huge casualties on the Marine side in the Esreia Kingdom.

Even Marine Admiral Kong the Iron Fist was severely punished for it.
