Roger vs Aatrox, Makima Appears

A devastating power erupted in a city.

There were not many people in this city because the people on this island had begun to escape when Aatrox first revealed his power.

They were already prepared for this when the Marine had first arrived here.

And now, a huge black crescent moon flying slash wave cut the city in half. 

"What a monster..."

Roger could not help but say. The attack just now was his all-out attack, but all it did was push Aatrox back slightly.

But he could not afford to back down!

Roger rushed forward again. In this city that he had cut in half, he could fight to his heart's content.

After Aatrox was pushed back, he waved the huge demon sword in his hand and collided with Roger. The devastating momentum directly repelled Roger, but Roger immediately jumped onto Aatrox's arm!

Originally, he wanted to jump onto Aatrox's sword, but at that time, his Color of Observation Haki warned him, as if he would immediately encounter something extremely terrifying if he did so, which was why he took the risk to jump further.

Despite Aatrox's huge body, but aside from strength, he was also flexible. When Roger reached him, Aatrox's another hand was ready to slap him.

"Despite your huge body, you're really agile!" Roger shouted. He stood on Aatrox's arm and kept running upward, but he was still hit by Aatrox's huge arm.

This almost broke his bones. If not for Jewel of Four Souls' self-recovery ability, Roger would've died from this blow.

However, it was also because he had Jewel of Four Souls' power that he chose to take such a risk!

He sacrificed his body to force Aatrox to lift his hand. Now that there was an opening, Roger continued to sprint upwards, and in the blink of an eye, he had already reached Aatrox's shoulder!

Roger mustered all the strength in his body into the blade that was fused with his arm.

The enormous power made him seem like a dazzling meteor as he thrust the edge of the blade towards Aatrox's head!

Boom!

Roger pushed Ace with all his might. At this moment, he had already arrived at Aatrox's neck. He believed that a neck was the weakness no matter what creature it was.

His previous attack had no effect on Aatrox, but he did not think that Aatrox would be able to survive without his head!

This strike pierced deeply into Aatrox's flesh, but Roger was still not satisfied. He kept pushing the blade with all his strength, and Aatrox's skin was tough. Even so, it didn't deter Roger.

"Aaaahhhhhhh!"

Roger let out a high-pitched roar. He knew that this was his only chance, so he was determined to make it count!

Sskkkk!

In the end, this strongest slash was completed. Roger pierced through Aatrox's neck completely. Because Roger almost exhausted his strength, he fell from the sky, and what fell alongside him was Aatrox's head!

That huge head, which was like a huge rock, was falling from the shoulder!

He did it!

The weak Roger felt a burst of joy in his heart, but this joy turned into a deeper despair almost immediately.

"Do you think you can... kill me?"

The falling head seemed to be mocking Roger. In the next moment, Roger saw with his own eyes that some of Aatrox's innards gushed out from his body and grabbed his head. Then, Aatrox's head was reattached to his neck by the innards!

!

Roger knew that Aatrox's body was reconstructed by the clansmen of No.1, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even cut off his head. Could it be... 

Roger thought of a possibility.

Could it be that Aatrox's weakness was not this body, but... that sword?

When he was about to attack earlier, he indeed felt a great sense of danger coming from Aatrox's sword. No wonder Aatrox didn't bother making any effort to protect his head when he tried to chop off Aatrox's head. He thought that Aatrox was just careless.

He had vaguely guessed Aatrox's weakness, but he had no strength left now.

"I hate your freedom, Gold D. Roger..."

As Roger fell to the ground, he saw Aatrox's huge body had begun to decay, which affirmed his hypothesis even more.

But what could he do? No one could stop Aatrox anymore...

"Now, you, the symbol of the last resistance of this world, have been defeated. Just wait for the fall of the world in the dark hell."

Aatrox raised the sword in his hand high. This sword would sink the entire island directly into the sea. Roger had seen its power. He desperately wanted to resist, but even if he had Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments in his body, it could not restore his combat strength.

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Roger.

It was a woman. She wore black trousers and a white shirt on her upper body. She stood in front of Roger and looked straight at Aatrox.

Makima!

Black Order's Supreme Commander, the person who had become big shot in the world recently. Roger had certainly seen her portrait. After all, she was the Supreme Commander of the World Government's fourth largest organization.

She actually showed up now, but since her job was to deal with the demons, her arrival wasn't strange.

The only strange thing was, why didn't she join forces with the Marine?

However, this was not something that Roger cared about. He only cared about whether there was any hope in this world.

"Speaking of which, our Black Order is the one who specializes in dealing with the demon."

She stretched out her right hand, her thumb and index finger turning into a gun. Her left hand was resting under her right hand, and she said softly,

"If you want to talk about the world's savior, the last hope, I have never thought of giving up this title to anyone else."

Bang!

It was as if her right hand was actually a gun. As she fired, Aatrox, who was about to swing his sword, was suddenly thrown into the sky by something!
