Island 17
Carrot and Wanda were back-to-back, panting heavily, surrounded by a large group of humans.
Carrot didn't understand. "What's wrong with these humans? Why are they targeting us?"
"They probably want to sell us!" Wanda was a few years older than Carrot and knew more. The humans targeting them were likely human traffickers.
From acting alone until now, they had defeated more than a dozen waves of enemies, yet an endless stream of enemies continued to appear.
"Zzzzzzt!"
Electric arcs flowed!
Island 6
"!!!"
Two dinosaurs roared furiously, chasing the attackers wildly, leaving the surrounding town in a mess.
"Those two giant dinosaurs are Daichi, the Destroyer's left and right arms!"
"Just as crazy as the rumors say!"
"Quick, get away!" The pirates scattered and fled, secretly cursing the damned human traffickers for provoking the Beasts.
Island 1, Auction House
"Straw Hat is here!" Who's-Who arrived near the venue, a wide grin stretching to his ears. Finally found him!
However, he couldn't go in yet. Because at this moment, there were Celestial Dragons in the auction house!
Island 24
Daichi and X Drake continued to wander. "What have you decided?"
X Drake hesitated for a moment, then said, "Daichi, I'd like to join you after entering the New World, if that's alright?"
"That's fine, just don't make me wait too long." Daichi nodded slightly. Wanting to explore on his own wasn't a bad thing. These Supernovas could grow with each island they experienced.
X Drake breathed a sigh of relief, then nervously asked, "Daichi, are you here for the war?"
"Well, I'm not interested in wars started by others." Daichi glanced at X Drake.
Good heavens, he just agreed to join him and already started prying for information. He didn't even bother to hide it. That's good, he'll pass on a message to him.
"My purpose for coming here is to kill someone."
"Kill someone? Who?"
"Blackbeard!"
X Drake was utterly mistaken. He had heard about the Beast Pirates' bounty on Blackbeard, which was as high as 1 billion Berries, but to get involved in a war for such a thing seemed too outrageous.
Blackbeard is at Marineford! To see Blackbeard, he would have to wait until the war broke out and go to the Marineford battlefield, where all of the Marine's elites were gathered.
Daichi didn't explain much. Blackbeard was elusive, making him extremely difficult to find. This war was undoubtedly the best opportunity. If he missed it, and Blackbeard obtained the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, the difficulty of killing him would increase tenfold.
"?" Daichi looked at the man walking towards him. Green short hair, three swords, and a sake flask in his hand. Roronoa Zoro!
His luck today seemed exceptionally good. He even encountered the equally elusive Zoro, making him want to call the Priestess and ask if today's divination was very auspicious.
"Hmm?" Zoro looked up at Daichi. The other man was walking in the center of the street, his massive body blocking his path.
"Are you asking for directions?"
Daichi was silent for a long time. "How do I get to Island 1?"
"Hmm, that way!" Zoro thought for a few seconds, then pointed east.
"Thank you." Daichi walked west.
Zoro looked at Daichi's departing back with confusion, feeling that something was off, but couldn't quite put his finger on it. Could this guy be lost?
As he was thinking, the human trafficker on a flying fish motorcycle rushed over, anxiously shouting at Zoro. "Brother Zoro, get on quickly!"
"Hmm?" Zoro was full of questions. "Are you lost too?"
"No, I'm not!" The biker yelled, bristling. "Get on quickly, no time to explain!"
At the Human Auction House
The auction was in full swing, with the host enthusiastically promoting the products.
"That bastard!" Law sat in the middle, covering his swollen head, filled with anger. He lost!
Although he had expected to lose, he didn't expect to lose so completely. His slashes couldn't break through the opponent's defense at all.
In his surgical space, he could freely cut anything that existed, like a surgeon operating. But there was a prerequisite: he had to be able to cut the target. Normally, he could cut even steel, let alone a human body.
But his ability had failed! This was the first time he had encountered such a situation!
Penguin, Shachi, and Bepo stood behind him, grumbling. "Captain, it's good enough that you got out alive!"
"You should thank Daichi, the Destroyer for going easy on you."
"We told you not to provoke him."
Law's veins bulged. "All three of you, shut up!"
At the very back of the seating area, the Kid Pirates were all present. Seeing the injured Killer, the Pirates all frowned.
Captain Kid's temper flared. "Killer, who hurt you?!"
"Just a fight, it's nothing serious." Killer shook his head, his face under the mask looking quite grim.
A big shot with a 3 billion Berries bounty was indeed extraordinary. With their current strength, it was impossible to defeat him.
"Boss, it's the Straw Hat!"
Kid grinned. "I'd really like to meet Straw Hat and see how foolish he truly is."
The most common rumors about Straw Hat were about his madness, even daring to challenge the World Government. He was eager to meet Straw Hat and see what kind of man he was.
Soon, he saw him! Like a fool, he rushed into the venue, like a fool, he wanted to save someone, and then like a fool, he punched a Celestial Dragon away!
Cold sweat broke out on Kid's face! Truly… well-deserved reputation!
"A Celestial Dragon was attacked!"
"Run!"
"An Admiral is coming!"
The news that a Celestial Dragon had been attacked and that an Admiral was about to arrive quickly spread throughout the entire Sabaody Archipelago.
"Those bastards!" "More trouble than they're worth!"
"Apopopo, don't worry, the danger is for the Straw Hat, not us. I'd like to see the Admiral's strength!"
The Pirates cursed loudly, especially the other Supernovas. An attack on a Celestial Dragon would inevitably draw a large military force.
As major bounty targets, if they encountered an Admiral, the consequences were unimaginable. They didn't want to face an Admiral. They were implicated by the Straw Hat!
Some Supernovas wanted to take risks, while others were very cautious.
Capone Bege's face was ashen: "Quickly, set sail for Fish-Man Island immediately. If we encounter an Admiral, we won't be alive!"
"Yes!"
Marineford
"Boom!" Sengoku angrily slammed the table, roaring at Garp, who was eating rice crackers: "It's your grandson again! Your whole family is the same!"
"Bwahahaha, he's really capable!" Garp laughed so hard tears came to his eyes.
Kizaru, sitting not far away, stood up. "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, no matter what happened, if a World Noble is attacked, the Marines cannot remain indifferent."
"Let me handle it."
"Please rest assured, I'll be back soon!"
Admiral Kizaru moved out!
Sabaody Archipelago, Island 7
"A step too late, it seems." Daichi looked at the fleeing crowd and continued towards Island 1.
He would go take a look first. He also wanted to meet Straw Hat Luffy!
