In the East Blue Sea, several ships gathered together.
Violent explosions sounded from the ship from time to time, and then a ship with a skull flag suddenly broke from the middle, and sank in the sea in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, there were only two ships left in the sea.
Hephaestus stood at the bow of the ship, watching the battle on the opposite side with a calm expression.
It is not that she has not seen battles between human beings. In fact, before the gods descended to the lower realms, the gods always fought, because there are many gods who are bored and looking for fun, and the most prominent one is probably Loki.
In order not to feel bored, she even used tricks to pull all the gods into the water.
Originally, they were artisan gods, and most of them had very hot tempers. Coupled with such a provocation, they were naturally ignited, and then joined the battle of gods.
Because they won't really die, they can be resurrected every 10,000 years, so the gods are also unscrupulous.
This situation did not completely subside until after the lower realms. The gods transferred their source of fun to the members of their Familia members. Many gods often went to the arena of the Ganesha Familia members to watch the battle. Hephaestus is occasionally no exception.
However, she is still very curious about the way of fighting in this world, so she observes it so seriously.
At this moment, there are only a few living people left on the opposite pirate ship, most of them have lost their breath and completely collapsed on the deck.
The only ones who can keep standing are only three people.
One of them was wearing a black suit with a captain's coat on his shoulders, glasses, cat's claws on both hands, and long blades extending from the gloves.
'Crow', the leader of the Black Cat Pirates.
The ship that was heading towards Cocoyasi Village and Loguetown suddenly encountered the Black Cat Pirates on the sea. Naturally, the pirates behaved like pirates, and launched shelling at the slightest disagreement.
Now that they have met, Yami will naturally not just watch it and lead Kuina to launch a counterattack.
After the engraving of "God's Grace", Kuina's talent in kendo seemed to be fully stimulated, not only in a short period of time, she learned the breath of water from the breath of the sun, but also in the battle with ordinary pirates. Among them, many ability values are recorded.
Although she is not yet an adult, her physical fitness is no weaker than that of ordinary adults.
Coupled with the incomparable exquisite swordsmanship, she completely fought with the cat brothers of the Black Cat Pirates. Although it was dangerous, she did not fall into a disadvantage.
As for the other pirates, it was not Yami who killed them, but Crow himself.
Under his indiscriminate attack, Yami and Kuina did not suffer any harm. On the contrary, other members were accidentally injured. It is too sad that he cannot control his own strength.
"You bastard, who the hell are you? Why haven't I heard your name in East Blue before?!"
Panting heavily, Crowe asked solemnly.
However, Yami didn't seem to want to respond to his thoughts.
"Who am I? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you. Since you chose to attack us, you should be prepared to die in battle. The Black Cat Pirates will cease to exist today."
"Are you kidding me, I'm Crow!!!"
The feeling of being ignored is not good, and Crow was angry.
Just when he was about to continue to use silent steps, Yami was one step ahead of him and moved behind him in an instant. The index finger of his right hand quickly thrust out, piercing Crowe's heart with incomparable precision.
The 'big pirate' who was domineering in the East Blue Sea died here so easily.
At the same time, Kuina's battle is coming to an end.
"Water Breath·Third Form—‧Flowing Dance!"
In an instant, Kuina's figure became meandering instantly, and a large number of afterimages appeared in sight. The cat brothers didn't react at all, and they were easily resolved.
After doing all this, the girl breathed a sigh of relief, and her figure swayed slightly.
This battle was not easy for her, but no matter what, she finally won the victory against the somewhat famous pirates!
Her changes visible to the naked eye immediately made Kuina feel ecstatic.
Sure enough, it is undoubtedly a very correct decision to become the master's disciple, join the Familia of Hephaestus-sama, and go to sea with them!
This also allowed Kuina to see the possibility of chasing her dreams again.
"Okay, don't be too happy too early. This is just a bunch of little pirates who don't even know what haki is. When you can defeat the pirate with a reward of over 100 million, it won't be too late to be happy. , As for now, it's better to train hard first~"
The excitement was extinguished in an instant, which made Kuina a little dissatisfied.
She gave Yami an annoyed look, but in exchange for the latter's stern eyes, the girl stuck out her tongue mischievously, and nodded honestly, "I know, Master, I will definitely train seriously. , and then meet your requirements as soon as possible."
"Then I'm waiting for that day to come."
Rubbing Kuina's head vigorously, Yami punished the little girl for her presumptuousness.
Two days later, Cocoyasi Village was a few hundred meters away.
Hephaestus is lying leisurely on a chair and basking in the sun, probably because there are only Yami and Kuina. The always conservative red-haired goddess is very bold in a bikini at this time. Her hot figure makes Yami dazzled for a while.
[Pic.] Aaaa
Seeing this, Kuina, who was exercising hard at the side, immediately rolled her eyes angrily.
"Master, your eyeballs are about to fall out, it's too embarrassing to look like this!"
"Hey, you little girl, what do you know about adults?! Train harder you brat!"
In order not to damage his image, Yami hastily coughed twice and defended himself.
However, facing Kuina's eyes full of weirdness, he suddenly felt a little guilty, turned his head in embarrassment, and forcibly disconnected.
"Cocoyasi Village is coming soon, let's take a rest for now!"
"Ha ha…"
A sneer sounded, which made Yami's brows slightly raised.
Sure enough, the originally very cute little girl became less and less cute after a long time of contact. She was not as obedient as Ais, Tiona and Shinobu at all!
But this feeling seems to be good, at least much better than being too serious.
Heeding his words, Kuina stopped training, and looked towards the island not far away.
"Master, there seems to be a pirate ship parked on the shore!"
"Nani?!"
Kuina's reminder instantly made Yami frown.
His body that has been strengthened by the ability value has indeed captured the ship in Kuina's mouth. Although the flag fluttering in the wind is not particularly clear, it is definitely the pirate flag.
His observation haki was used, and immediately the situation above Cococia Village, and even everyone's conversations were included incomparably clearly, and his face instantly became extremely dark.
"Something went wrong, Hephaestus-sama, I'll take the first step, please bring Kuina over later!"
"Well, you go, I will drive the boat to follow."
Hephaestus, who was lying on the chair, nodded, with a look of anticipation in her eyes.
Receiving a response, Yami didn't hesitate any longer, and with both feet slammed hard, his figure disappeared directly on the deck, turning into a white streak across the sky in an instant, and arrived at Cocoyasi Village.
Kuina, who didn't notice any movement trajectory at all, changed her previous contempt and immediately showed an envious expression.
"It's amazing, isn't it?"
At some point, Hephaestus has come to the girl's side.
"Hephaestus-sama." Kuina came back to her senses, her attitude was very respectful, and she also seemed extremely cautious.
Hephaestus, who has long been used to it, didn't care, looked at the direction where Yami disappeared with bright eyes, and said softly: "Yami is the most powerful child in my Familia, and he is a hero recognized by me. If you want to defeat him, you have to put in 100,000 efforts to make it possible."
"If you relax a little bit, maybe you will be pulled further and further away by him."
"Master is very powerful, but I will definitely become the world's number one swordsman!"
Hephaestus's words did not make Kuina flinch, and her inner thoughts were already very firm.
Seeing this, the red-haired goddess suddenly chuckled, "You really look like another female apprentice of Yami~"
"Eh? Master's other disciples?" Hearing this, Kuina suddenly showed a curious expression, "Hephaestus-sama, if it's convenient, can you tell me about the situation of the other Senior Sister?"
"Of course, that's the girl who was bestowed the title of 'Sword Fairy' by us gods~ Let me tell you…"
Cocoyasi Village.
Yami, who arrived here ahead of schedule, followed the guidance of his observation haki, and soon appeared in the crowded field, and a large number of villagers appeared in his sight.
At the same time, there are still many fishmen.
There were so many people gathered outside the ordinary orange grove, the scene in front of him was already very obvious, it was the event of the Arlong Pirates invading Cocoyasi Village.
"The time doesn't seem to be right. I remember the time travel simulation before, Dragon should not have come so soon."
Looking at the scene in front of him, Yami frowned suddenly.
Is it because the real person travels through the simulation, so the time has deviated again?
His system is becoming more and more unreliable. Every time there will always be some unexpected surprises in some sporadic and trivial places. This feeling of being unable to grasp is really unacceptable. Fortunately, it's still under his control.
Yami couldn't help being very thankful, fortunately, he chose to rush to Cocoyasi Village for the first destination.
Otherwise, maybe he will miss this event directly.
If the final evaluation of the customs clearance is not enough, he doesn't even have a place to cry. It seems that the travel after this needs to be accelerated to avoid mistakes in the middle.
"Let's deal with these fishmen first."
With a thought, Yami's figure instantly disappeared in place.
On the other side, Arlong was blocking the door of Bellèmerè's house at this time, looking at the woman in front of him with a grinning face, his eyes were fierce, and his behaviour was full of contempt.
"So, you don't plan to pay enough money, right?"
The terrified expressions of the villagers made Arlong very satisfied, which greatly vented his distorted mentality, but the woman who dared to raise a gun to resist made him feel dissatisfied.
"If you have no money, then go to hell!"
"Don't underestimate me. I used to be in the navy!" Bellèmerè looked resolute, and pulled the trigger in her hand without hesitation, "Don't even think about hurting my family, you pirates!"
Boom!!!
moment of gunfire
The sound sounded, and the buckshot shot out instantly.
The sound of the hit didn't sound, but Arlong that was standing in front of her just now had disappeared, and Bellèmerè's body froze in place, with beads of sweat dripping from her forehead.
"Shierarara, a low-level human, How dare you resist us, then go to hell!"
Arlong's big fan-like hand instantly grabbed the back of Bellèmerè's head. The physical strength gap made it impossible for Bellèmerè to dodge.
"Bellèmerè!"
All the villagers present exclaimed suddenly, among them Nami and Nojiko were even running in the direction of Bellèmerè in tears.
Swish—
Just at this critical moment, the air hummed continuously.
Immediately afterwards, Arlong, which was still arrogant and domineering before, flew upside down in an instant, smashing directly into the ground not far away, causing a terrible vibration at the same time.
The place where Arlong stood before has been replaced by another figure.
"That was close."
"Boss Arlong!"
The fishmen who came back to their senses suddenly exclaimed, and before they had time to check the situation of Arlong, the ruins on the ground exploded instantly, and a figure slowly walked out of the smoke and dust.
"Damn inferior human beings, you dare to sneak up on the noble fishmen and beat me up like this. Unforgivable! I will definitely smash your bones inch by inch!"
A large amount of blood flowed down from the head of Arlong, stimulated by the pain, Arlong was already burning with anger, and looked at Yami with scarlet eyes, looking like an angry shark.
"Little ones, kill all these lowly humans!"
The rest of the fishmen suddenly showed a fierce look, and walked slowly towards all the surrounding villagers.
With the order of Arlong, all the fishmen rushed towards all the humans at an extremely fast speed.
At the same time, he himself did not know where to pull out a big saw blade, and slashed towards Yami's head with all his strength, that shark face still had a vicious look on it.
The ignorant are doomed!
buzz!!!
A terrifying impact gushed out instantly, covering all the fishmen on the scene. The fishmen who were planning to attack the villagers froze instantly and couldn't move.
Even the big saw blade in Arlong's hand hovered over Yami's head at this moment, unable to press down any further.
The villagers who had already resigned to their fate and planned to fight to the death, after seeing the weird scene in front of them, all of them involuntarily froze in place.
The scene instantly became very funny.
The next moment, all the fishmen' eyes turned white, and they fell straight to the ground, unconscious.
Such a strange scene almost made all the villagers' eyes widen.
No one knew what happened. The fishmen, who were clearly arrogant just now, had completely lost their ability to resist, like a group of dead fish.
But the only thing that can be confirmed is that this young man must have done everything in front of them.
Looking at the 'corpse' of the fishmen lying on the ground in front of him, Yami was slightly silent, and then couldn't help but sighed.
"Sure enough, compared to the kind of revenge, I still prefer this kind of once and for all. After all, late justice has no meaning at all, it is just a high-sounding word.
As soon as his words fell, Yami quickly kicked out with his right leg, and a large number of vacuum slashes flew out, kicking the heads of the fishmen into pieces, leaving Hatchan alone.
It's not because the octopus fishman survived in the original book, but because the other party is familiar with Rayleigh.
In the past time travel simulation process, Rayleigh has helped him a lot. In this case, it is not a big deal to sell him this little favour. Anyway, the culprit is Arlong.
He has already been decapitated, so there is no need to worry about leaving him alone.
"Sir, thank you for your rescue. If you hadn't come, our entire village would have been destroyed by these fishmen. Please accept our most sincere thanks!"
Bellèmerè, the only one who had been in the navy, took a deep breath and came forward to express her gratitude.
Even her can't help but feel a little bit of fear at this time.
In the face of death, no one can remain calm!
