Although, when they came to this island, they had eliminated many great pirates of the New World!
But... they had even more so, lost countless elite Navy soldiers.
Then, while fighting with the executives of the Rocks Pirates, they had even lost a Navy Admiral!
And on the other hand, none of the people in the Rocks Pirates had died!
Such an ending, made it impossible for Crony to accept!
At the same time.
On the other side, El, Whitebeard, Shiki, Charlotte Linlin, and Kaido had successfully run away.
El, at the moment Whitebeard was swept away by the tsunami, had taken him out of this island.
As for Shiki and Kaido, they had been rescued by Charlotte Linlin.
Because Shiki, had previously been injured by Admiral Shinbu, and now he had been swallowed by the tsunami, and had completely lost his ability to move.
And Charlotte Linlin, although she was also a Devil Fruit ability user, because she didn't have many injuries.
Even in the seawater, she could maintain a little bit of mobility.
She summoned Zeus, and rescued Shiki and Kaido.
The reason why Charlotte Linlin wanted to save Shiki, was to make Shiki owe her a favor.
As for Kaido, he was a man that Charlotte Linlin valued, so she rescued him along with them.
At this time, the few people were standing on Zeus, who had been given soul power by Charlotte Linlin, and were rapidly rushing towards a direction, and were far away from Hachinosu, avoiding the Navy's pursuit.
"Jie hahaha... Today was really a dangerous encounter, I almost thought I was going to die on Hachinosu." Shiki took off his shirt, and while wringing out the water, he laughed loudly with a sense of relief.
To be honest, in a situation like today, anyone who came, would have thought that they would die on Hachinosu.
After all, the Navy Fleet Admiral, the Navy Three Admirals, the Navy's four top combat powers, and countless elite Navy soldiers had all come.
And on their side, there was only El, Whitebeard, Shiki, Charlotte Linlin, Kaido, Byrnndi World and others.
Compared to the luxurious lineup on the Navy's side, they were much weaker!
"Thank you for today, El." Shiki looked at El, and thanked him from the bottom of his heart.
If it hadn't been because El had displayed extremely strong combat power today, and had fought against the Navy main forces.
Then Shiki was afraid that he would have died on Hachinosu.
Although Shiki was cunning, and treacherous, he still valued relationships.
He was still filled with gratitude for El indirectly saving his life.
Hearing these words, El's anger flared up, and he immediately cursed: "Shiki, you bastard, who does things like you! You started pretending to be unconscious while fighting???"
Damn it, he was in a one-on-one duel with Admiral Renya.
Suddenly a Navy Fleet Admiral had run over, and launched an attack on him.
If it hadn't been because the Six Paths Sage Mode was strong enough, and could fight against the two of them, then he would have been killed by Shiki!
So, El was not touched by Shiki's thanks.
Even if he could, he really wanted to let Shiki die on Hachinosu!!!
"Jie hahaha.... You can't blame me for this, El, you also know that I was injured when I was fighting Shinbu." Shiki spread his hands, and showed a very helpless expression.
"Shut up, you bastard!" El said unhappily.
"But speaking of which, El, are you also going to return to the Rocks Pirates with us?" Charlotte Linlin asked with a strange smile on her face.
The reason why they didn't dare to leave the Rocks Pirates, was entirely because Rocks' strength was too terrifying.
Once they left, then they would be personally hunted down by Rocks.
And El's strength, even if he really left the Rocks Pirates, so what?
Even if Rocks hunted down El, he believed that El wouldn't be afraid.
"Why can't I?" El sat on Zeus, and shrugged.
El didn't have any plans to leave the Rocks Pirates right now, after all, staying in the Rocks Pirates could reap huge benefits.
Searching for Devil Fruits, was also unusually convenient, so.... he really didn't have a reason to leave.
What's more, now that the Six Paths Sage Mode Experience Card had already been used, and his strength had returned to normal.
If he left the Rocks Pirates at this time, and was hunted down by Rocks, then wouldn't he definitely die???
"It's really impossible to guess your thoughts, your current strength is probably no weaker than Captain Rocks, why do you need to continue staying in the Rocks Pirates?" Charlotte Linlin asked.
"Don't overestimate me too much, Linlin." El said lightly.
To be honest, El really didn't think that Admiral Renya, and Fleet Admiral Crony were that strong.
Even if the executives of the Rocks Pirates, Kyo, Ochoku, and John, could be mentioned by people in later generations.
And this group of Admirals, as the Navy Headquarters' highest combat power of this era.
In the new era, no one mentioned them, and they had even fallen in their old era!
This was enough to prove, that their strength wasn't strong enough!
And the reason why Charlotte Linlin and others, couldn't beat this group of Admirals now.
Was entirely because their strength hadn't completely grown up yet.
"I'm not overestimating you, but it's because you have this strength, and are still continuing to stay in the Rocks Pirates, that no one can guess your thoughts."
For Charlotte Linlin's words, El just smiled lightly, and didn't respond.
"Gula la la.... El, you guy, have you been hiding your strength from the beginning when you boarded the ship?"
Whitebeard's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he stared at El intently, as if wanting to see through him.
Whitebeard really didn't believe, that El having joined the Rocks Pirates for such a short period of time, his strength had actually reached such a terrifying level.
He could even fight against Navy Admiral Renya, and Navy Fleet Admiral Crony's joint attack.
That was all, and he had even killed Renya in a situation where the two were joining forces!!!
So, Whitebeard guessed, that El had been hiding his strength ever since he joined the Rocks Pirates.
"You guy, did you hold back when you exchanged blows with me back then?" Shiki also asked.
Back then, when El had boarded the ship, he had exchanged blows with Shiki.
However, the El at that time, his strength wasn't valued by Shiki at all!
But.... a period of time had passed, and the strength that El was displaying, had far surpassed him!
Seeing that the few people were constantly entangled and asking about his strength, El spread his hands.
"To be honest, don't overestimate me too much, I didn't hold back any strength when I boarded the ship, as for why I displayed that kind of ability just now."
"That's because I borrowed the power of a Devil Fruit, but..... I'm afraid I won't be able to use that power again in the future." El left a trick in his words at the end.
El had borrowed the Six Paths Sage Mode Experience Card, that's why he had unleashed such amazing and terrifying combat power.
But the Experience Card, there was only one, and it had already been used now, and his strength had returned to normal.
As for when he would obtain another Six Paths Sage Mode Experience Card, he didn't know.
And as for wanting to unlock Six Paths Sage Mode, then El was even more unclear about when he would obtain it.
However, he naturally couldn't explain things like the Six Paths Sage Mode Experience Card to Whitebeard and the others.
So, he used the Devil Fruit ability, as an excuse. And the reason why he explained it to Shiki and others like this.
Was because he knew very well, that everything that had happened today, would definitely be questioned by Rocks.
Dare to ask, Rocks who possessed the ambition to dominate the world.
Suddenly learned that there was someone on the ship, who had been hiding his strength all along.
And his strength was not inferior to his, what would happen???
Without a doubt, Rocks would definitely become suspicious, and would think of a way to eliminate El!
Because Rocks allowed people on the ship, to form cliques. But he would definitely not allow someone.
Who had been hiding his strength all along, and didn't know his ambitions, and his strength was not inferior to him, to live.
If Rocks really planned to attack El. With the current El, without any Experience Card ability, he would definitely die!
So, after weighing it, El told this fabricated news to Shiki and others.
At that time, when they returned to the Rocks Pirates, they could also explain it.
So that Rocks wouldn't have murderous intentions towards him or anything.
"The power of a Devil Fruit?"
Hearing El's words, the few people were all stunned.
Damn it, just what kind of Devil Fruit, could obtain such a terrifying ability in an instant?
Not to mention being able to fight against a Navy Admiral, and a Navy Fleet Admiral at the same time, he had even killed Admiral Renya!
"Are you saying, that such an ability can only be used once?" Hearing this, Shiki was silent for a few seconds and asked.
"If it wasn't because it was too powerful and could only be used once, then do you think, how could I have unleashed that kind of power?"
The power of Six Paths Sage Mode, if he unlocked it in the future, he would definitely be able to use it again.
But he didn't need to tell Shiki and others the truth, right?
Whitebeard, hearing this, was filled with gratitude in his heart: "In order to save us, you actually used this only chance?"
Whitebeard naturally knew, that El's ability, definitely couldn't only be used once.
