Sukuna leaped into the air, his legs slightly bent. Sukuna had a smile on his face and a dangerous gleam in his eyes. "Wow, that's a lot of ships!"
The air rippled his clothes and the sea breeze whipped across his face. Feeling the height was perfect, Sukuna reached out and outrageously concentrated the cursed energy in his hands, causing a blue energy with faint black lines to swirl around him.
The aura emanating from this energy was extremely disgusting and evil. Feeling it was enough, Sukuna smiled broadly, excited. It was the first time he had launched a large-scale attack.
CUT!!!
The terrifying attack headed toward Krieg's fleet of ships.
"Hey, look, there's a person in the air above Captain Krieg's battleship Sabre."
SWISH
"Yeah, what's he trying to do in the air?" The pirates in the fleet hadn't even had time to say a word when a huge slash fell from the sky, splitting several ships in half. Many pirates were killed and torn apart by the tremendous slash launched by Sukuna.
Even the distant sea, hit by this slash, was slightly split in two.
SPLASH!
The seawater suddenly churned, trying to fill the wound on the surface.
BOOM!
The next instant, the remaining ships were completely split in half.
Sukuna, seeing this scene, smiled broadly as he watched the fleet being torn apart.
Of Krieg's fifty-five ships, without exception, all were split in half and sank to the bottom of the sea. As for the pirates on board, perhaps a few lucky ones survived, but even if they did, they would be killed and devoured by sea beasts attracted by the stench of blood.
"Is this the strength of a pirate with a bounty of 50 million beyas?" Gin muttered as he watched the massive fleet sink to the bottom of the sea.
"It's... too powerful... impossible... impossible. There's no way to fight... no way... to... escape..." Watching the shattered ships slowly sink into the sea and the blood of the dead dyeing the sea red, Gin slumped hopelessly on the bow of the Sabre. The fierce glow in his eyes dissipated, replaced by nothingness. In that instant, Gin was like a lifeless puppet.
"Wow, Captain, you're so powerful, too powerful to be human!" Bumblebee danced with joy as he surveyed the destroyed fleet.
On Bumblebee's homeworld, war is an everyday occurrence, and carnage like this can't damage his circuits.
"Sure, sure, Lord Sukuna is super strong," Sebas Tian said proudly, his eyes full of fanaticism.
"Sure, sure, my man is super, super strong!" Nami said as she watched Sukuna gently descend from the air. The stronger Sukuna is, the safer she'll feel and the more money she'll earn.
Sukuna fell from the air, his clothes fluttering. The next moment, the Nue reappeared beneath him, carried him onto its back, and landed gently on the bow of the Sabre.
STEP
SPLASH
STEP
SPLASH
Sukuna climbed down from the Nue and walked through the blood and corpses of the Krieg pirates until he stopped in front of the defeated Krieg.
Sukuna smiled and looked with interest at Krieg, whose eyes were practically lifeless. "What now? What were you going to do?"
But Krieg didn't seem to understand Sukuna´s words. He was like a madman, muttering, "What... what? Is this fake? This is all fake. I must be dreaming."
"Yeah, it must be a dream, hahaha..."
"Ha!"
"Haha!"
"Hahahaha!"
"Tsk, have you completely collapsed?"
Looking at Krieg, who was laughing out loud, Sukuna raised his index finger and prepared to kill him, but at that moment, Gin's lifeless man stood up and opened his arms to block Krieg.
Seeing this, Sukuna suddenly became interested: "Oh, you want to stop me?"
Enduring his fear, Gin managed to say as he stared at Sukuna
"Lord Killer, it was our Krieg Pirates who provoked you without knowing the consequences, but you destroyed our fleet, amputated Captain Krieg's hands, and apart from Captain Krieg and me, nothing remains of the former Krieg Pirates. As you can see, he has suffered an irremediable mental breakdown. This mentally broken man can pose no threat to you. Please let him go. But if you still wish to kill the Captain..."
THUD
At that moment, Gin knelt with his head on the ground, performing perfect dogeza, and, ignoring his fear, shouted, "Please kill me! I am willing to trade my life for Captain Krieg's. Please accept my shameless request!"
Seeing this action, Bumblebee marveled at his bravery and couldn't help but say, "This pirate named Gin is a loyal and just man."
"Yes, this Gin is truly a loyal and just person, rare among pirates," Sebastian Tian repeated, a flash of admiration in his eyes.
Sukuna approached Gin, standing a few inches away from him, and frowned. He couldn't understand how such a loyal man would be willing to sacrifice himself and his life for a scum like Krieg. Sukuna was certain that this man, Krieg, was a despicable and unscrupulous scum. To maintain his fleet of fifty ships and over five thousand people, he was certain that these scum were dedicated to killing civilians and plundering their resources.
Sukuna didn't understand, so he calmly asked Gin, "Is your life worth it for a man as cruel as him?"
"No matter if Captain Krieg is good or evil, I will repay his kindness with my life," Gin said loudly, still in a dogeza position.
"Hmm, I see, I understand."
"Friendship between pirates is truly touching."
Hearing this, Gin immediately raised his head and said excitedly, "Thank you, Lord Sukuna, for your..."
Sukuna looked at the excited Gin and changed his tone to a mocking one: "It's a good, very good friendship, but I refuse." Before he could finish speaking, Sukuna kicked him fiercely, causing him to spit blood and fly away.
BOOM!
Gin, who received a fierce kick from Sukuna, hit the ship's cabin, sending it flying. He was trapped in the shattered cabin, spitting blood. Gin could clearly feel several broken bones; he tried to move but couldn't.
Gin looked at Sukuna in horror. Sukuna nonchalantly grabbed Krieg by the hair and lifted him off the ground. "No... no... please... no," Gin said weakly, reaching out to stop Sukuna.
Seeing that Gin still had the strength to utter a sound, Sukuna grabbed Krieg's head and pointed it at him, a terrifying smile plastered across his face. For some reason, he felt slightly moved by the desperation on the faces of his enemies.
Gin's face filled with tears, and he begged, "Please... please... no... please!"
Sukuna´s smile twisted further at Gin's pleas. He reached out with his free hand and gently scratched the back of Krieg's neck.
WHISH
SPLASH
Sukuna easily slashed Krieg's throat in an instant.
The decapitated body fell to the ground with a dull thud, spurting blood. The lonely head in Sukuna´s hands stared at Gin with dull eyes.
"Captain!..." Looking at the head in Sukuna´s hand, Gin screamed and fainted.
Sukuna dropped his head in his hand and walked over to Krieg's large armchair. Upon arriving, he plopped down and sat down in Krieg's chair. He hugged little Nami, wrapped his arms around her, and sat her on his lap.
"Mmm, Sukuna, you're too outrageous. You sank all those ships without giving us a chance to loot their treasure!" Nami said dissatisfiedly, hitting Sukuna´s chest to show her dissatisfaction, with small tears in her eyes.
"..."
Sukuna was speechless at the girl's greed. He laughed softly and stroked her back. "Don't worry about the treasure. In the future, there will be so much gold that you won't even know what to do with it."
....
Hearing Sukuna´s words, he raised his head and looked into his eyes. "Really?!"
Sukuna saw the berry sign in Nami's pupils and laughed softly. "Hahaha, of course. When have I ever lied to you?"
....
Nami nodded happily and replied, "Fine, fine, then I'll wait!" Nami said nothing more and snuggled up against Sukuna´s chest, rubbing her head against him like a kitten that's just been petted.
"Greedy cat," Sukuna thought, seeing Nami's actions.
A while later, Sebastian Tian and Bumblebee arrived with some captured small pirates who had escaped the net. Sukuna, having killed most of them on deck, could sense with Observation Haki that these lucky ones survived thanks to not being on the ship's deck.
He was too lazy to deal with such trash, so he deliberately let them go.
"Lord Sukuna, we are ready to surrender."
"We are ready to follow you!"
"Please don't kill us, Lord Sukuna!" The pirates knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, tears streaming down their faces.
Sukuna ignored them. At that moment, with his Observation Haki, he perceived that all of Krieg's treasure was gathered on his flagship.
He stroked Nami's orange hair and said, "Haha, my dear thieving kitty, it seems you're in luck. All that treasure was on this ship. Soon you'll be able to gather the treasure of an entire fleet."
Nami, resting her head on Sukuna´s chest, said dejectedly, "I'm glad the treasures weren't lost and that I've gained a large amount, but I feel like I'm just a vase and can't help you at all."
How can you be just a pretty face? You have the best sailing talent in the world.
Sukuna wasn't lying. Nami's sailing talent was truly terrifying. Upon reaching the first half of the Grand Line, she quickly adapted to the strange climate. Her talent was so great that even a cowardly and mischievous old coward like Golden Lion Shiki fell in love with her and didn't hesitate to steal her.
"Mmm, I believe you, Sukuna!" Nami replied, perking up a little after receiving Sukuna´s praise.
Sukuna stroked Nami's hair, looked at the kneeling pirate, and ordered indifferently, "Bring me that Gin!"
