Deleting messages

If I have messages turned off on my iPad and I delete old messages on iPad to free up storage, will the messages be deleted from iCloud or just my iPad?

iPad 2, iOS 9

If you have locally disabled Messages in iCloud on your iPad, you can delete messages on iPad without impacting other devices that are signed-in to iCloud with the same AppleID.
