Angel vs Tyrant!

And besides delivering a message to Rayleigh, Kuma also has more important things to do.

"Finally, a big shot has arrived."

On the Sabaody Archipelago, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Kuma.

Kuma looked at the figure of Urouge in front of him and said, "Urouge, the 'Mad Monk.' Originating from Skypiea, captain of the Fallen Monk Pirates, one of this year's Supernovas, with a bounty of 130 million berries."

"I heard that Bartholomew kuma is powerful, can i give it a try?"

Urouge squinted at Kuma in front of him, a smile on his face.

"Why?"

Kuma calmly asked Urouge in front of him.

Urouge blocking his path and actively proposing to spar was unexpected for Kuma.

And from Urouge's demeanor, Kuma saw confidence.

It wasn't blind confidence, but confidence in being able to defeat him.

On the trunk of the Yarukiman Mangrove not far away, Doflamingo, upon receiving reports from his subordinates that Urouge had appeared on Sabaody, came immediately to watch the show.

Doflamingo looked at Kuma and Urouge with great interest.

In his eyes, Kuma's strength went without saying. Daring to strike against the World Government, refusing to pay the Heavenly Tribute, and still active on the seas all spoke volumes.

And Urouge, one of this year's Supernovas, and even his comprehensive abilities were quite outstanding in Doflamingo's view. He had come this time with the idea of recruiting talent for the Donquixote Family.

After all, the situation on the seas was becoming increasingly turbulent, and it was necessary to properly strengthen the family's power.

But he didn't expect to see this scene when he had originally intended to recruit Supernovas.

And the members of the Fallen Monk Pirates who followed behind Urouge, when they saw that their captain was about to confront Bartholomew kuma, were all shocked, their faces filled with astonishment as they looked at their captain.

"Captain, calm down!"

"That's Bartholomew kuma, Captain, you'll be killed."

"Captain, the Thirty Years' East River, Thirty Years' West River. Let's wait until our strength is stronger before we engage in battle with opponents of this level."

"Yeah, Captain, think twice!"

Many hooded crew members, frantically persuading alongside Urouge.

Urouge's smile froze involuntarily at the sight of his subordinates, who had been so fervently persuaded.

For him, choosing Bartholomew kuma as an opponent was a carefully considered decision.

Then Urouge directly ignored the persuasions of his crew members and gripped the huge pencil-shaped weapon in his hand.

"It's over, the captain is serious."

The various crew members of the Fallen Monk Pirates, seeing Urouge revealing his fighting spirit, all wore bitter expressions.

In their eyes, Urouge's strength was very strong, otherwise, he wouldn't have become one of this year's Supernovas.

But the problem was, the strength of the Kuma in front of them was even stronger. In other words, this guy was almost not human at all, and from his nickname alone, it was clear how ruthless he was.

Ignoring the gaze of the crew members looking over, Urouge held the huge pencil horizontally in front of him with both hands.

"Kuma, let me see your strength."

He stared at Bartholomew kuma, who was currently riding high on the seas, his eyes shimmering with determination.

Since leaving Skypiea and coming to the Blue Sea, he had never slackened.

He was almost in training every moment.

It was also thanks to Nicholas helping him lay the foundation for becoming stronger at the time that his strength had made tremendous progress.

Nowadays, whether it was physical dominance or Devil Fruit ability, he was incomparable to before.

"..."

Kuma looked at Urouge in front of him and said, "As you wish."

As the news of Kuma's encounter with Urouge spread, many people swiftly approached the tree island where the two were located.

On one side was the renowned monster of the seas, on the other side, the dazzling new star of the year.

Although they didn't know the reason for the confrontation between the two, they were eagerly anticipating the exciting display and the outcome of their battle.

On the battlefield.

"Truly extraordinary, worthy of being called the Tyrant. Just standing there makes me shiver. No wonder those guys from the World Government want you to become one of the Shichibukai..."

Urouge gazed at Kuma, who stood quietly in the distance, and spoke.

"..."

The crew members of Urouge's Fallen Monk Pirates looked at each other in astonishment.

At this distance, they couldn't feel the chilling and terrifying aura emanating from Kuma, but the term "Shichibukai" still stirred up immense waves in their hearts. After all, with the establishment of the Shichibukai system and the performance of Crocodile, the pirates who had previously scorned the Shichibukai system had begun to realize.

That is, those who could be bestowed with the title of Shichibukai by the World Government were all terrifying monsters.

Considering the widespread notoriety of Bartholomew kuma and the invitation from the World Government to become one of the Shichibukai, they felt it might be safer to retreat a few hundred meters.

Of course, this wasn't them being cowardly, but rather leaving enough space for their captain's battle with Kuma.

On the Yarukiman Mangrove less than five hundred meters away from the two.

With a bounty of 250 million berries, the sea rogue Donquixote Doflamingo, played with the thread in his hand while watching Kuma in the distance with rapt attention.

"Is your strength truly as formidable as the rumors say?"

Meanwhile,

Urouge took the initiative to attack Kuma.

It wasn't that he wanted to make the first move, but the overwhelming pressure emanating from Kuma, who stood quietly there like a mountain, was suffocating. If he didn't act, he would probably lose his will to fight completely.

Urouge gripped his massive hexagonal pillar and charged towards Kuma, mustering all his strength to swing the weapon at Kuma's face.

The entire process was straightforward.

However, in the face of Urouge's attack, Kuma merely extended his left hand, freezing the massive pencil-like weapon in mid-air. Only the strong wind accompanying the swing brushed past Kuma's face.

"Using just one hand... no, he didn't even move his feet."

Urouge looked at this scene in disbelief.

And in the distance, the crew members of the Fallen Monk Pirates, who had been watching Urouge and Kuma's battle, also couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.

You see, Urouge's bounty was 130 million berries, while Kuma's was 280 million berries, an 150 million berry difference. Even if there was a difference, it shouldn't be so extreme.

Not far away,

Other spectators also noticed the awkward situation Urouge was facing.

"How is this possible? How can there be such a big difference!"

Almost everyone took a sharp breath, their faces all changing almost simultaneously.

As highly anticipated Supernovas, they naturally garnered a lot of attention.

After all, as long as these guys didn't fall midway or get captured by the Marines, then after one or two years of honing in the New World, they would at least reach the level of the senior officers under the monsters of the New World, and some even had the qualifications to challenge those monsters.

So, for these future rising stars, there was a lot of accurate information available.

And among Urouge's information, apart from his Devil Fruit ability, what stood out the most was his terrifying ability to withstand attacks and his extraordinary physical strength.

But what are they seeing now?

Kuma used only one hand, his left hand, to effortlessly block Urouge's attack, which he had swung with all his might.

Usually, people like this on the seas are called monsters.
