The Strongest Lunarian in One Piece

"Those are..."

"Two pterosaurs?"

"It's the Ace brothers!"

"Finally, those two are back!"

"Hey, that's great! Some reinforcements have arrived!"

The sudden development left everyone stunned.

Seeing the two massive and ferocious ancient pterosaurs, many on the battlefield were visibly shaken. No one had anticipated that the Fallen Angels Pirate Crew had additional reinforcements.

For Hajrudin and the other giant warriors, however, smiles of excitement spread across their faces, and their morale soared.

"Apologies for being late!"

From above, the elder brother, Gace, now transformed into a Quetzalcoatlus, bellowed down to the battlefield.

"We couldn't help it! The training from the Blue Ogre and Red Ogre leaders was too strict!" The younger brother, Jace, who had transformed into a Pteranodon, laughed heartily.

"Bahaha~ My brother and I had to give it our all to pass their trials!"

Indeed, El had once traveled to Little Garden, the ancient island in the first half of the Grand Line, seeking to recruit the Blue Ogre and Red Ogre—the legendary leaders of the Giant Pirates who had dueled there for decades.

Though the ogres declined to leave the island, El had leveraged his special ties to Elbaf, along with a generous offering of fine liquor, to persuade them to train the promising Ace brothers, who had already consumed the Quetzalcoatlus and Pteranodon Zoan-type fruits.

Impressed by the brothers' immense potential, the ogres not only agreed but also took them on as students, vowing to help hone their skills. After this battle, the brothers would return to Little Garden to resume their rigorous training.

"Those two..."

Steel Bone Kong's expression twisted as he recognized the two massive pterosaurs. His face darkened as he realized the truth:

One of them possessed the Quetzalcoatlus fruit, which had once belonged to a top-tier CP0 agent. The other wielded the Pteranodon fruit, formerly the ability of an infamous convict Kong had personally captured and consigned to Impel Down's Eternal Hell.

Now, these abilities had been stripped away and handed to the giant warriors of the Fallen Angels Pirate Crew, creating two immensely powerful flying fighters.

"Quetzalcoatlus?"

"That's Nosy's ability!"

The CP0 agents froze, their faces pale.

"So the Fallen Angels really can steal someone else's Devil Fruit ability..."

Teeth clenched in rage, they couldn't mask their growing fear. Their scalps tingled, and the air around them felt suffocating.

"Clang!"

In the skies above, sword and scythe clashed violently. The Admiral Pegasus Horn, who had the powers of the Mythical Zoan Pegasus, struggled to hold his ground. With tremendous effort, he swung his blade to block the vicious scarlet scythe of the Lady Demon Irene. The sheer force of the clash sent him reeling backward.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a violent gust tore through the air. Horn's hair stood on end as he narrowly dodged to the side, avoiding a deadly series of wind blades that slashed through the space he had just occupied. One blade grazed his neck, leaving behind a deep, bleeding wound.

"Damn you..."

Horn glared furiously at the menacing and bloodthirsty Lady Demon, who was relentlessly pressing her assault.

"What? A Navy Admiral, and you're this weak?"

The wings on her back quivered. It was Irene—the airborne demon. Blood dripped from her lips as she licked them, her gaze playful yet dangerous.

"Don't underestimate a Navy Admiral!!" Pegasus Horn was enraged, flapping his wings and charging forward. He had always believed his position as an Admiral was earned through strength and recognition. However, within Navy Headquarters, many officers clearly looked down on him. This was a thorn in his heart that never ceased to ache.

"No, I'm not underestimating Navy Admirals. I'm just underestimating you!"

Maintaining her hybrid beast form, Irene—transformed into a scythe-wielding demon—let out a chilling laugh. In an instant, she became a whirlwind, brandishing her scythe as she launched a violent assault.

"Clang! Clang!"

In mere moments, two fierce figures clashed repeatedly, their battle raging in the sky. The combat was incredibly intense.

"Tsk tsk, it seems like some truly formidable folks have shown up!"

Watching the ferocious scene of the two massive pterosaurs tearing a giant Sand Worm into pieces, Rocks couldn't help but marvel. In comparison, his earlier victory—killing Vice Admiral Bays of Navy Headquarters and claiming his Bird-Bird Fruit: Vulture Form ability—suddenly felt unimpressive.

"Yahaha, since I've made my move, I can't leave empty-handed!" Darkness spread all over his body as Rocks' eyes burned with cunning ambition. Fixating on the Saints Mars and Saint Denis before him, his gaze betrayed unabashed greed.

As captain of the Rocks Pirates, he wasn't in the habit of doing good deeds for free—certainly not just to help the Fallen Angel El out of trouble. No matter what, he was determined to claim one or two top-tier abilities before leaving today.

"These people..."

Saint Mars' expression darkened as he stared at the dismembered Saint Ju Peter. Without hesitation, his fearsome form began to shrink at a visible speed, morphing into a terrifying, hunting beast hybrid. He had a hawk-like head, wings on his back, limbs transformed into sharp claws, and a long, serpentine tail trailing behind him. His aura was terrifying.

Engulfed in flames, Mars fixed his gaze on the menacingly evil Rocks and roared at Saint Denis, "You're no match for this guy! Go help Kong hold off Charlotte Linlin so Kong can focus on restraining him! We need to eliminate the Fallen Angel Pirates first!"

There was no denying that Rocks' Dark-Dark Fruit abilities were a major counter to them. Only someone like Kong, who, despite also being a Devil Fruit user, had immense physical prowess, could effectively hold Rocks at bay. Moreover, what Mars truly feared was that Rocks might neutralize their regenerative and near-immortal abilities.

"Understood!" Saint Denis knew all too well how terrifying Rocks was. Also in his hybrid beast form, he didn't hesitate, spreading his wings and taking off toward Linlin. But Rocks made no move to stop him, allowing Denis to leave.

With a toothy grin, he looked at the hunting Saint Mars with an amused expression.

"Yahahaha, as expected of the Five Elders who wield the highest authority in the World Government. Not a bad strategy!"

Rocks had already decided to seize this opportunity to plunder powerful abilities and saw no reason to help the Fallen Angel El restrain such formidable opponents. After all, facing two top-tier powerhouses simultaneously would be challenging, even for him.

If Mars and Denis managed to pin him down, it would hinder his goals.

"But… Do you think you can stop me, Old Man?"

In the next instant—Rocks let out a sinister laugh. Darkness enveloped his left hand as he directly locked onto Mars.

"Dark Vortex!"

Mars' body trembled. His expression changed as he was involuntarily pulled toward Rocks. Opening his sharp beak, he unleashed a burst of radiant firelight. With terrifying heat that warped the air, the blast hurtled toward Rocks.

"Boom! Boom!"
