# Chapter 105: Revenge
Hades believed it was time for him to gradually reveal his edge.
Staying low-key wasn't what he wanted either.
Some things cannot be obtained if you don't act; if you don't strive for them, they will only drift further away.
Whether it's Devil Fruits, powerful Subordinates, or prestige and supplies – none of these can be obtained through steady growth alone.
"Golden Lion" Shiki's Faction was growing stronger, and he himself stood in the first echelon, second only to Rocks, alongside John and others.
More than a year had passed since Newgate revealed the strength of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
His development and mastery of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit had reached a terrifying level.
Apart from the Cadres of the Rocks Pirates, the outside world had not truly understood Newgate's current terrifying strength.
A roc takes flight on the wind in a single day! Soaring ninety thousand miles high!
After two years of tempering, the several Subordinates he had chosen had also gradually grown up under the tutelage of Titan and Hades.
Except for Volibear and Seamus, who were still very young, the others could all stand on their own and become Cadres without any issue.
This first shot would be fired within the Rocks Pirates.
Randy Orton and Batista were already impatient to get their revenge! Compared to the two who were motivated by revenge, Levesque and Rick Flair, these two Pirates, had not seen much improvement in their strength.
Their bounty hadn't even changed much.
But they were, after all, Great Pirates with bounties exceeding 200 million Beli, far beyond the pirates of the future.
At their level, mastering Two Types of Haki was the most basic requirement; they were not easy opponents to deal with.
Sometimes, the gap in strength isn't so easily erased.
Levesque and Rick Flair had been able to roam freely until now precisely because of their own strength.
As for Randy Orton and Batista, they were still too young; Orton, for instance, was only twenty-one years old now.
However, Hades had confidence in them.
If they lost, it would only show that they were nothing special.
People always have to pay the price for their choices.
There were many Pirates with talent; he could just recruit more, although this was something Hades didn't want to see.
But as Pirates, they needed to solve problems in a Pirate's way.
"Go do what you want to do, but don't disappoint me." Hades looked at Randy Orton and Batista, holding high expectation for them in his heart.
"Yes, His Highness! We will definitely succeed." Batista nodded in affirmation, clenching his fists tightly.
Accumulating their anger, they headed with Orton towards the Southern Commercial District of Hachinosu, intent on killing.
They had already confirmed the location of Levesque and Rick Flair beforehand.
They were inside a Tavern in the Commercial District.
Calling it a Commercial District, it was actually more like a Black Market trading area, filled with various businesses, some legitimate, some illicit, and some a mix of both.
Businesses like munitions trading; Taverns were considered relatively normal among them.
As they walked, the two carried a dense killing intent, their purpose very clear.
Orton and Batista's state was very unusual, something many Pirates on Hachinosu Island were familiar with.
This was clearly heading towards murder.
Watching a spectacle is always popular.
Some Pirates who noticed quietly followed behind them.
Similarly, some people recognized Orton and Batista.
There were only a few Pirates who had become Hades' Subordinates, and those who paid attention knew their identities.
This was getting interesting!
Two figures stood at the entrance of the Tavern, their tall bodies blocking most of the outside light.
Pirates living on Hachinosu were sensitive to such an aura and knew that trouble was brewing.
Their arrival startled the Pirates inside the Tavern.
"Levesque, Flair, get out here! It's time to settle our scores." Orton's gaze, like a venomous snake, fixed on the two inside the Tavern.
"Oh? And you are?" Levesque's slightly tipsy eyes looked at Orton and Batista.
He felt they looked familiar but didn't recognize them immediately.
Indeed, they had offended too many Pirates; it was impossible for them to remember the face and name of every single one.
Moreover, back then, Orton and Batista were just weak Minor Leaders.
Even after Orton joined the Rocks Pirates, they hadn't paid them much attention.
Not everyone cared about these newcomers joining the Rocks Pirates.
Levesque's attitude only made Orton and Batista feel more angry and humiliated.
The people they hated and wanted revenge on had never even put them in their eyes.
This made them feel somewhat ridiculous.
After all, they had worried that Levesque and Flair might attack them and nip them in the bud before they could grow stronger.
But this didn't change their inner feelings.
Orton wasn't a talkative person; he preferred to show his attitude through action.
Batista also didn't want to wait any longer.
It was just a Tavern; they could afford to compensate for it.
They exchanged a look.
Both exploded into action instantly, completely disregarding the other Pirates inside the Tavern.
Amidst the curses of a group of Pirates, the Tavern collapsed.
One by one, the Pirates fled the scene, then joined the crowd of Pirates attracted by the commotion to watch.
They wouldn't miss such a good show.
The four were already locked in a great battle.
Facing the attack from Orton and Batista, Levesque and his companion wouldn't just sit and wait for death; these two were clearly aiming to kill them.
The news quickly spread and attracted attention.
Although they weren't major figures in the Rocks Pirates, the people standing behind them were not simple.
"Golden King" Donovan! "Son of Death" Hades! The conflict between the four, the old matters that had happened in the past, were quickly dug up.
Some people hoped that Hades and Donovan would step forward and clash.
However, unfortunately, Hades already knew about it.
Donovan, who had also received the news, remained unmoved.
It seemed this was just a minor matter.
Even if they were defeated and died, it wouldn't have much impact on them.
They were just Pirates with bounties of one or two hundred million Beli.
In the Rocks Pirates, calling them Cadres was just saying they were Minor Leaders.
As for Hades, he would only feel a little regret.
Although he thought highly of them, if they hadn't grown up, they just hadn't grown up.
Hades wasn't a nanny.
If he had to step in for this, it would only make things bigger.
