Sasaki narrowed his eyes, a fierce glint flickering within, "You're making me a bit itchy, hey, since it's like this, why not join forces? Alone, you're not very stable, are you..."
"Isn't two people still unstable? How about adding me?"
An enticing soft laughter echoed, as a graceful beauty draped in a purple feathered cloak strode over, "I'm about to return to my family, to secure a higher-ranked ministerial position, I still need more battle achievements to please Mama..."
"Charlotte Galette!"
The surrounding pirates gasped, "Has this guy come too...BIGMOM's daughter!"
"One, two, three..." Someone counted, unable to help but be surprised, "Are all five Super Rookies gathered?"
"But only three seem willing to make a move."
Galette smiled gently as she heard this, "How about it, you two heads, the three of us join forces and share the yields of this battle, what do you think?"
"..."
Sasaki and Halt frowned slightly, exchanging glances.
"Okay."
"I agree."
Galette looked pleased, "Great, since we've come to an agreement, let's make a little space for our guests first... seems like the ship is about to dock."
Thud!
Almost at the moment her words fell, the Endgame slowly came to a stop, and one by one figures appeared at the bow, stepping onto the shore under the gaze of all eyes.
Leading the way was a girl with a high ponytail and an expressionless face, she looked around the crowd indifferently. The pirates under her gaze felt an inexplicable chill as if they were thrown into an ice cave.
"Deputy Captain, 'Rain-Slaying Sword Master' Kuina, bounty of 200 million Belly!"
Someone swallowed hard, murmuring, "What a terrifying aura, indeed, with such a strong presence seated, no wonder the Pirate Gang won't dissolve directly..."
And behind her, several figures lined up and followed onto the shore.
"Combatant, 'Frosty Fist' Nojiko, bounty of 130 million Belly!"
"Boatman, 'Defector Hunter' Smoker, bounty of 160 million Belly!"
"Chef, 'Redfoot' Zeff, bounty of 100 million Belly!"
"Pet, 'Thunder Grey Wolf' Ah Yin, bounty of 150 million Belly!"
"Pet, 'Flaming White Team' Nuomi, bounty of 100 million Belly!"
The resounding names, the terrifyingly high bounties...
Each figure was recognized as they stepped ashore, and the frightening oppressive aura hit like a wave of fear.
Many people's faces turned pale, instinctively stepping back a few steps.
"This is Endgame..."
Even Pedro had a grim face, a trace of cold sweat trickling down his temple.
Counting thus, just within the Endgame Pirate Gang, there were already six Super Rookies with bounties surpassing a hundred million Belly, exceeding the total number of Super Rookies currently on the island!
What a terrifying lineup!
Luckily, he never planned to get involved...
He turned his head, his gaze falling on the three who had already teamed up.
Sasaki, Halt, Galette.
The three great pirate captains were obviously a bit uneasy by this grand entrance.
But after exchanging glances, they quickly regained their confidence, pulling out their weapons with cold smiles and striding forward.
Three against six, seemingly a disadvantage in numbers.
But somehow these three felt their bounties didn't match their strength.
Therefore, without a doubt, the advantage was still in their hands!
"Hey! Kuina!"
Sasaki grinned, first to shout out:
"Where are you looking? Over here! I've been waiting for you here for a long time! Bet on the swordsman's honor, come and fight! It's about time you handed over that strongest Sword Master's title to me!"
