The news of the destruction of Syrup Village, except for Luffy, who blamed himself and was in grief.
There is another person who also feels sad, that is Zoro, who's in paradise.
After Zoro saw the newspaper, in addition to anger, hatred, and self-blame, he also felt confused.
"Damn... Usopp's hometown!!"
"Everyone... The beast's pirate will not stop here! But Luffy..."
"Damn it, what on earth should I do?"
On one side is the hometown of his friends, and on the other is his own captain, Luffy.
Who should he save?
Luffy will be executed in a month. If he returns to East Blue, he can't save Luffy in time!
"Damn it, even if I rush back to East Blue, I don't know where they will attack unless I actively look for them, but..."
Zoro's expression looked ugly.
Although his strength has improved a bit during this period, he doesn't know if he can defeat a cadre of Beasts Pirates!
"Everyone... I'm sorry... I can't leave Luffy alone!"
Zoro's eyes darkened. Although he had thousands of emotions in his heart, he still made up his mind!
In East Blue, Sasaki's mood was not so beautiful. He originally wanted to scare the monkeys and let the sea see the consequences of offending the beast's Pirates.
But because of the public execution, no one cared about these little things.
He felt like he had been punched the cotton.
And the most important thing is that the Straw Hat boy he was hunting down was also the protagonist of the public execution!
When people are about to be executed, how can they be hunted down?
His plan to wait for them to show up is now meaningless.
Should he still massacre a village every half a month?
"You bastard, you are such a loser that you were caught by Marine!"
In a tavern on a certain small island in East Blue, Sasaki drank a large glass of strong liquor and roared with a red face.
"Sir... Sir, what should we do now?"
The reporter on Sasaki's side asked cautiously.
"What else can we do? Destroy all their hometowns. Otherwise, I will not be able to get rid of my anger."
Sasaki originally came here to play a game of a cat catching a mouse, but now that he is told that the mouse is gone, he will not be happy.
"Sir, isn't there another member of the Straw Hat Pirates?"
"Idiot!" Sasaki said angrily: "The captain has been caught. Do you think that little pirate will still be alive?"
The reporter nodded in understanding: "That's right!"
The Marine's report only mentioned that Luffy was caught and did not report on the process at all.
Of course, no one will care about it; it's just a small pirate group, after all.
Of course, Sasaki and the others would think that Luffy was captured alive and Zoro was killed by Marine.
He's just an inconspicuous little pirate; who would pay so much attention?
If it weren't for the fact that Luffy was the son of the leader of the Revolutionary Army, no one would care about his life or death!
"Damn it! It was a waste of time!" Sasaki cursed in displeasure; his prey was actually taken by others!
He drank a bottle of rum in one gulp, and the bottle fell to the ground!
"Bang…!"
"Hey, brat! Do you know how to drink?!"
A group of big men at the table next to Sasaki roared fiercely after being hit by the broken wine glass.
"Get out!" Sasaki didn't even raise his head.
"You brat, how dare you talk to me like that?!"
The leader, a man over four meters tall, grabbed Sasaki's collar fiercely and stared into Sasaki's eyes:
"Do you know who I am? I am a great pirate with a bounty of 13 million Belly, Sally the Muscle Ghost!"
"Now lick my shoes clean, or I will peel off your skin!"
"Bastard... How dare you yell at our captain? Who in East Blue doesn't know our captain's name!"
"You ignorant boy deserves to die!"
"Ha ha ha ha..."
The crew behind the great pirate keeps yelling...
Seeing that Sasaki didn't react, like he was too scared to move, they even started to mock him.
The reporter next to Sasaki sat obediently and looked at the pirates as if he were looking at a group of idiots seeking their own death.
Sasaki put down the wine glass in his hand, raised his head to look at the person in front of him, and suddenly grinned.
Sally didn't know why, but his heart suddenly became cold, and he trembled all over, feeling as if there were ferocious beasts looking at him.
But he quickly suppressed that sense of nonsense and looked at Sasaki, who was smiling smile; he felt as if he was being mocked: "You brat, why are you laughing? You're looking for death!"
He grabbed an unopened bottle of wine and smashed it down!
"Snapped!"
But when the bottle was only one centimeter away from Sasaki's head, his wrist was grabbed by Sasaki, and he stopped, unable to move!
"Asshole, let me go!"
Sally wanted to pull out his right hand, but no matter how hard he tried, until his face turned red, he couldn't pull it out at all, as if he was caught in an iron vise!
"The pirates in East Blue are really so arrogant!"
Sasaki said calmly, then he clenched tighter and kicked Sally in the chest.
"Ahhhh!!"
Sally's arm hurt, and before he had time to react, he felt tremendous force at his chest and before flying backward swiftly.
His right arm was severed at the shoulder part, and he screamed in pain as he hit the ground!
"The same goes for the Straw Hat Pirates, and so do you flies..."
Sasaki threw away the severed arm and said in disgust: "A bunch of arrogant frogs in the well!"
"Ah... ahhh!!"
After a while, Sasaki picked up the wine glass and drank again. The ground was full of corpses, staining the floor of the tavern with blood.
"Let's go directly to the next target!"
"Damn it! Damn, Straw Hat Boy, what a waste of my time!!"
