It had been five days since Kaizen left Enel.
For the past five days, Kaizen had been sailing a larger boat, drifting carefree on the sea.
"It would be great if I had a fishing rod and a bottle of 1982 Lafite..." Kaizen lay in the boat, daydreaming.
A huge shadow suddenly cast over him, waking him from his dream.
"A ship? No, a big ship!" Kaizen sat up and saw a massive vessel passing by.
"What a giant! Why not go up and take a look?" Kaizen grinned with interest.
With that, he jumped lightly onto the huge ship.
Looking up, he saw a skull flag flying above.
"Another pirate ship. There are so many pirates these days," Kaizen thought. Standing on the deck, he felt at a loss.
He was tired of dealing with pirates. None of them were law-abiding.
And he was the person who least wanted to cause trouble. If this continued, his plans would be ruined.
Thinking of this, Kaizen considered getting off the ship and escaping.
"Hey! Don't stand there stupidly. The captain is about to speak. If you're late, the captain will shoot you!"
A pirate crew member ran past Kaizen, shouting anxiously.
"The pirate captain is speaking? Where did this come from? But since they think I'm one of their crew, why not listen to their meeting? In the future, I'll need to deal with pirates, and getting to know them better might be useful."
Kaizen thought thoughtfully and followed along.
"Wow, this captain's style is quite unique. He looks like dried chili peppers."
Kaizen couldn't help but think when he saw the leader with a pointed beard and a red cloak.
"Alright, everyone, sit down quickly and stop talking. Our fifth meeting of the Pointy Beard Pirates is about to begin!"
Pointy Beard waved to the crew and conveyed the meeting rules in a loud voice.
Good grief, why is this like a village loudspeaker? Kaizen felt goosebumps.
Except for Kaizen, the other crew members cooperated immediately after hearing the captain's words, sitting down and quieting the scene instantly.
They knew their captain well. Despite his mediocre voice and seemingly kind face, he was the most despicable, shameless person in the world.
He killed without blinking, targeting only those weaker than him. He was completely unethical and proud of it.
Pointy Beard was most proud of his lack of morals. It was this shamelessness that had made him a name among pirates.
To put it bluntly, he was a treacherous person with no real skills, destined to be swallowed by the world eventually.
Kaizen sat cross-legged, his chin in his hand, staring at Pointy Beard, ready to listen.
"Hiccup hahahaha..."
But after listening for a while, Kaizen couldn't help it anymore. He sat there, laughing uncontrollably.
It was as if everything around him had become a complete joke.
Finally, he stopped when he was tired of laughing.
"Okay, it's time to end this."
Kaizen stood up, wiped the dust from his clothes, and spoke seriously.
"What do you mean? What nonsense are you talking about!" Pointy Beard glared at Kaizen impatiently.
"I've just seen what kind of bastards you all are, and I just want to say one thing!" Kaizen held up a finger, but said nothing more.
Everyone waited for his words, but he remained silent.
"What are you talking about?" Pointy Beard leaned forward, asking.
"That's it, everyone!"
With that, Kaizen jumped up high.
Everyone on deck looked up in confusion.
"Armament Haki, activate!"
As he finished speaking, a huge fist shadow fell down unceremoniously.
Duang!
The sound spread across the sea. Even the fish stopped, watching the ship fall apart like fireworks.
"What a disgusting feeling!"
"Damn it, I'll come back!"
"I haven't conquered this ocean yet! How can I fall like this!"
"Ah, I love you..."
"Iris, be nice in this life; I'll love you in the next..."
"I love treasure, treasure loves me..."
In their final moments, these villains shouted their last confessions, both funny and infuriating.
In the end, all their words bubbled away into nothingness.
Kaizen floated down, landing back in his boat.
Everything finally settled.
"It's not that I want to eliminate harm for the people, but I just didn't like your faces."
Kaizen moved his wrist, speaking with a cool expression, like an overbearing president.
But the next second, a flying wooden board hit him on the head. The sudden blow caught him off guard, and he immediately yelped in pain.
After days of inactivity, this sudden attack felt strong, making his whole body sore.
"I need wine to clear my veins."
Kaizen sat in the boat, looking forward while moving his shoulders.
But in the vast sea, where could he find wine?
"Oh! I should have grabbed some bottles from that pirate ship. What a loss."
Kaizen covered his face, feeling regretful.
When he lowered his hands, he suddenly saw an island in the distance. It was a bit far but definitely an island.
If there's an island, there are people, and if there are people, there's wine!
"Hahahaha!" Kaizen laughed like a villain.
The excitement made him forget his pain for a moment. He picked up the paddle and rowed toward the island with all his strength.
The boat, subjected to a strong thrust, rushed forward at high speed, almost falling apart.
From a distance, it looked like a speedboat, making anyone watching feel nervous.
It seemed like he had more important things to do than rush to be reincarnated!
