Being scared out of his wits by a giant squid, Shiki angrily left the house.
Although Fred's reaction disappointed him, it at least made him realize that the sea monster had great power. But wasn't that more interesting?
"Heh ha ha ha!! A squid ruling the sea and a lion ruling the sky, this battle will be very interesting!"
Golden Lion Shiki stretched out his arms, as if embracing the sky, and said loudly, "Get ready to fight! Before the other forces arrive, we will hunt down that giant squid!"
The island flying in the sky suddenly changed direction, and its speed was much faster than before. According to the information in the newspaper, the last place the giant squid appeared was a pirate town to the north.
That place used to be where pirates on the sea stopped to trade. Even Rocks himself had done some trading there with other pirates. It was a place agreed upon by everyone, and over time, some pirates even stationed themselves there to maintain order among the pirates and make a profit.
But now, no one on that island should still be alive, right?
"The ruler of the sea is furious! The end of the pirates is here!"
The newspaper used a large and clear headline to report this event, with pictures of a giant tentacle sweeping across the entire area and a ruined island. That's why Golden Lion called it the 'squid ruling the sea.'
And next, will the king of the sky rule the sea, or will the king of the sea seize the sky's domain?
Golden Lion was full of anticipation, first because the world would finally not be boring, and second because the giant squid showed him a way to rule the world!
If, if he could have an army of such monsters, then there would be no force in this world that could stop him.
Such huge monsters are absolute kings at sea. With his ability, even the World Government would kneel before him!
Therefore, the excitement in his heart was indescribable, and his desire for the Shikon Jewel shards grew deeper.
It seemed that he didn't need to collect all the shards to form the complete Shikon Jewel. Just a few shards could give him the power to destroy the world.
"Head to Pirate Island. It shouldn't be too far away!"
......
"I have told Marshal Kong many times that we should come and wipe out this place, but it seems that we don't need to do it ourselves now."
Here, everything was a mess.
A huge ditch, almost splitting the entire island in half, was in front of Zephyr's eyes. The entire island was covered in a sticky liquid. All the trees and buildings had collapsed, and even the wreckage didn't exist, having turned into dust.
Along with it, there was the darkness of this island. Countless pirates on this island met an equal death.
It was imaginable that they were still reading the newspaper and drinking wine, engaging in sinful and dark deals. The entire island was filled with a strong evil, but at that moment, an even greater evil descended. People died under the sudden despair, unable to resist.
Just one strike... or rather, just an unconscious wave of a tentacle destroyed the entire island, and the owner of that tentacle continued on its way, as if it had done something insignificant.
"Oh... Silver Serpent Yutan, that's a pirate with a bounty of 800 million. He seems to still have a breath left." Garp and Zephyr walked on this nearly broken island. At this time, he saw a man lying weakly in countless debris.
Pirates with bounties of over 500 million were considered big shots on this sea. As the Marine's top combat power, they had an impression of those people. Garp looked at Yutan on the ground and said with some emotion, "But more than half of the bones in his body are broken. He won't live long."
He slowly lowered his body, his fist turned black, and with a single effort, he directly strangled his neck, causing the unconscious 800 million bounty pirate to die instantly.
"Garp." Zephyr frowned, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
He followed a no-kill policy and was later known as the no-kill admiral, but it was not good to criticize Garp now. The Marine and pirates were enemies, and he couldn't force his ideas on others, especially since Yutan was already dying.
"Alright, we have to hurry." Garp looked at the distant sea and took a long breath
"No matter if that so-called 'Ocean Ruler' has Shikon Jewel pieces or not, we can't let it continue to destroy things without any control."
They were originally chasing the Golden Lion Shiki. They happened to pass by here and saw that this pirate island was destroyed, so they went ashore to take a look. Then they received newspaper news about the Kraken, and only then did they realize what had happened.
After seeing the newspaper, they decided to temporarily give up chasing the Golden Lion. Compared to the Golden Lion, this giant squid is a huge evil that is above him!
"I know..." Zephyr took a deep breath and said, "Further ahead is the territory of a country that is part of the World Government. If this monster gets there..."
I'm afraid that country will be no different from this pirate island, right?
If they don't stop this monster from going crazy, I'm afraid more and more countries will be destroyed!
This monster has such power, relying on its huge size, it can easily destroy even a country.
Fortunately, it was them two who came from the Marines this time. If it were Sengoku, he would definitely be too careful, right?
After all, in the sea, facing a monster that can easily stir up waves and create ocean disasters, devil fruit users are too weak.
"Let's go!"
They quickly returned to the warship, and an entire Marine fleet moved forward, chasing the huge sea monster Kraken's trail.
......
In a more distant area, in the middle and back of the New World, the Roger Pirates were roaming the seas.
"Captain! Are you still waiting for that sea monster?!"
Roger, who used to hold banquets and drink all the time, had been doing nothing strange for the past few days, just sitting on the top of the ship, looking into the distance with eager eyes.
A newcomer who had just joined the crew came out of the cabin and couldn't help laughing when he saw Roger still sitting on the top of the ship.
"That must be a fake report! How could there be such a huge sea king? The newspaper just likes to make up such big news to get people to buy it!"
