Nameless

Roger looked at his fallen comrades. Many of them had died, but some of them were still alive.

He had already undone his Clank-Clank Fruit's ability. At this moment, he returned to his original appearance and sat limply on the ground.

He panted heavily. This battle had consumed a lot of his strength and caused him severe injuries. Now that he saw this scene, it was a shock to his spirit.

"I have the Dark King. If you want to talk, find me at Black Order's headquarters."

Those words made Roger frustrated, but he eventually calmed down.

"Sorry, hadn't it been for me, you wouldn't have to face that Demon Lord."

Suddenly, No. 1's voice came from in front of him.

No. 1 slowly lowered his head, and there was a hint of sadness in his eyes. Roger didn't look up. He just sat on the ground and looked ahead.

"No, this is my choice from the beginning. We will still come here even without hearing your story." Roger said.

Having no casualties during a voyage is a little unreal, right?

We clearly couldn't compare Roger Pirates to the real protagonist, Luffy.

It was safe to say that Luffy was unbelievably lucky that none of his crews died. On top of that, he didn't kill any of his opponents either.

However, from the time Roger went out to the sea until now, he had already seen too many people die, but this was the first time he had failed so miserably.

Even Rayleigh had been captured!

Black Order...

Roger once again thought of that woman in his mind. Even when facing Aatrox, she still seemed at ease. Although she said that she had figured out Aatrox's weakness after his battle with Aatrox and Aatrox himself was careless, Roger still thought that there was more to it.

Where did the World Government find such a strong person?

Roger's heart was filled with negative emotions. Perhaps it had something to do with the monster half inside him.

However, everyone was bound to stumble into failure.

Perhaps only after experiencing an unforgettable failure would he be able to grow at a higher speed.

Less than five people survived. Fortunately, the Marine gave them a basic treatment before they left.

Especially Gaban. He was injured to the point of near death. If the Marine had not treated him with certain medical measures, he would have died.

"…" No. 1 walked to Roger's side and whispered, "You show me see the courage of a human. You show me that the Demon Lord is not invincible. You are an amazing man..."

"Please let me join you and make up for my weakness!"

Roger glanced at No. 1 and then slowly stood up.

"Of course you will. I won't say no for an answer!"

His eyes gradually became determined, as if he had recovered. His bones should have been shattered, and he could barely move, but thanks to the Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments, the severe injuries were almost healed.

As time passed, more and more people would come, so it was not wise to stay there any longer.

"Let's go back to Altar of Ascension first. Don't worry. We will bring everyone."

Roger nodded, and then the surrounding changed in the next moment.

Teleportation!

Roger had just arrived in this country, so he didn't know about No. 1's abilities. This was the first time he saw teleportation, so he surprised.

They returned to Altar of Ascension, and Shanks was sleeping quietly on a flat platform.

His comrades were also brought inside. Roger looked at the sun disc high up in the ceiling and said surprisedly, "This... What is going on?"

Half of the sun disc that used to be dark now disappeared, leaving only the golden part.

Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments was at the core of the sun disc, emitting a mysterious light, as if dispelling the darkness.

"After Aatrox absorbed everyone, the darkness on the sun disc disappeared. It must have been absorbed by Aatrox. "Now, there is no problem in destroying it."

"From now on, this Altar of Ascension will become history."

After saying that, he raised his hand, and te Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments that was at the core of the sun disc was squeezed out from the top and gently fell into No.1's hand.

No. 1 held this Jewel of Four Souls' Fragment and used it on the injured crews. The injuries of the crews that were patched up by the Marine became lighter and lighter, but they were still unconscious.

"Take this Jewel of Four Souls' Fragment as a gift before I board the ship."

No. 1 threw the fragment in his hand to Roger after doing everything.

Roger caught it subconsciously. He clenched his fist and three of Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments appeared from his body.

It was the Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments that he fused into his body using Clank-Clank Fruit's ability, but he could not always use Clank-Clank Fruit's ability.

Now, the Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments in his possession became bigger with the addition from No. 1's fragment.

"Judging from the number, there should be dozens of fragments, right?" Roger said, "If I have more than ten fragments, I have confidence to defeat Aatrox!"

Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments is indeed a good thing. After experiencing an unprecedented failure, he now had an unprecedented desire for power, and these fragments were undoubtedly the fastest way to become stronger.

"Then go and collect them. Aatrox has not returned to hell. Let's do our best to defeat him!" No. 1 patted Roger on the shoulder.

They found a place and buried the deceased underground.

After the solemn memorial, the entire Altar of Ascension suddenly shook and the surrounding stone walls began to collapse. The tall altar also began to collapse, and there were big explosions everywhere.

No. 1 detonated the bomb buried in Altar of Ascension, and this ancient building fell apart under this explosion and collapsed.

In the deep cave, there were constant sounds of explosions and sparks.

Roger and No. 1 looked at the continuous explosions in front of them. In front of them was the grave of Roger's several crews. Now they would fall into eternal sleep with the collapsed Altar of Ascension.

"Let's go, No. 1."

From this moment on, Roger put away the hesitation he had, because he knew that there were more important things waiting for them.

If they kept dwelling with the past, they wouldn't even be free sea warriors.

"I gave up on that name."

No. 1 used his Telekinesis to carry the unconscious crews out of the cave.

"Call me Nameless."
