One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

The third day after the competition.

Ever since the competition with Kuli ended that day.

The soldiers on the warship began to look at An with an admiring look.

It made An feel creepy.

After obtaining Garp's consent, An spent the past two days fighting Kuli except for eating and sleeping.

Through one competition after another, An gradually mastered his own strength.

As for the injury on his hand, thanks to his strong physique, it healed that night.

When fighting with Major Kuli, if no other moves were used, the two would be evenly matched.

If the six styles were used, An would be beaten unilaterally.

As for why he didn't learn the Navy Six Styles.

An also asked Kuli if he could teach him the Navy Six Styles, but Kuli refused on the grounds that he leaked Navy secrets.

He went to find old man Garp, but was also refused on the pretext that the time was not up.

Although Garp did not give An the Navy Six Styles, he gave An his unique skill "Iron Fist".

In the training room of the Navy warship, a girl was forging iron.

The ironwork here is real ironwork, using fists.

One day ago, Grandpa, since you can't teach me the six styles of the navy, then teach me something you are good at. An begged with a serious expression.

Hearing this, Garp looked at An, laughed and said yes.

So there was a scene of ironwork in the training room.

Garp told An that if he could break the discus in the training room, it would prove that her iron fist had entered the door.

When An was practicing iron fist hard. Kuli's voice came from outside the door, asking An to gather on the deck.

As soon as he arrived on the deck, An saw a navy soldier reporting to Garp.

When An approached, he could hear clearly that it was the lookout who found that the pirates were looting the ship.

"Kuli, are you sure which pirate group it is?"

"It has been confirmed that it is the Iron Bull Pirates with a bounty of 8 million Baileys."

"Captain Charles is the user of the Animal-type Bull-Bull Fruit ability."

Garp was a little surprised that he could go to the East China Sea and meet a devil fruit ability user.

It seems that his "Operation Clean Sea" was not carried out thoroughly enough.

Order the warship to move forward at full speed.

5 minutes later

An noticed the black smoke rising in front.

An ugly pirate ship docked near a White Swan ship.

The pirate ship was hanging a pirate flag consisting of a silver bull head and three skulls.

From this position, An could already observe the battle on the deck of the White Swan.

Listening to the hideous and obscene laughter of the pirates and the begging for mercy of ordinary people on the White Swan ship from afar.

An frowned tightly.

Iron Bull Pirates.

"Captain, a warship is found heading towards us."

"Let's see if it is from the 153rd Navy Branch. I don't want to fight Monka for the time being."

"Captain, it's not a warship from the 153rd Branch."

"Then don't worry about them, wait for them to get close and kill them together."

But Captain, the number of artillery on their warship is a bit abnormal.

Before he finished speaking, the captain had gone to an unknown place.

The warship slowly approached the White Swan.

You said bombardment, what about the civilians?

This is an ordinary passenger ship with a two-story structure.

"Major Cooley, you will command this battle."

Letting Cooley command means it is a training exercise, and no strong men will be sent.

After receiving Garp's order, Cooley commanded the navy soldiers to attack the pirates.

An also took a standard long sword and followed the soldiers to the White Swan.

Seeing An's actions, Garp did not say anything.

An on the White Swan did not go to the deck with the navy soldiers to kill the pirates.

Instead, he quickly entered the cabin and tried to protect the civilians.

Some personal belongings were scattered in the dim cabin corridor.

The strong smell of blood and pungent gunpowder hit me.

An fanned the air and walked in with his mouth and nose.

If this was An who had just traveled through time, he would definitely turn back immediately.

But during the days of fighting with Cooley, An's personality has also changed slightly.

Inside the cabin

Walked along the wide passage toward the interior.

When An passed by a room, he suddenly dodged to the side.

Then a long sword stabbed out of the room.

Seeing that the attack was fruitless, a bearded pirate with bare breasts kicked the door and walked out.

Looking at An's beautiful face and graceful body, the bearded pirate licked his lips.

He smiled obscenely and said, "Little sister, why did you come here alone? Come on, let your uncle protect you."

After that, he reached out to grab An.

An pulled out the standard long sword in his hand, and a sword flashed.

The bearded pirate knelt and wailed on the spot with his bleeding wrist.

Although An had never learned swordsmanship, he relied on his superb physical fitness.

It was easy to deal with a pirate.

The bearded pirate endured the severe pain and said with a grim face: Little bastard, I will kill you.

The long sword thrust out towards An, and with a flash, An gently swung the sword and cut off the other hand of the bearded pirate.

The bearded pirate, who lost both hands, curled up on the floor and twitched wildly...

An slowly approached.

He stepped heavily on the chest of the bearded pirate and said in a cold voice: "Tell me, are there any other pirates in the cabin?"

The originally beautiful and pleasant voice sounded like the voice of a devil to the bearded pirate.

"Yes, yes, yes"

"There are 11 more people, we are a team."

"Tell me everything you know." An stepped on the chest of the bearded pirate again.

"Our captain is the user of the Iron Bull Fruit and likes men."

"The vice-captain and the navigator are having an affair."

Seeing that it was all useless information.

An stepped on the chest of the bearded pirate with his toes.

A lot of blood flowed out of the bearded pirate's mouth.

Passing the body of the bearded pirate, An walked into a small room.

The room was very simple and the decoration was very plain, obviously designed for ordinary people.

On the guest bed in the room, a young girl lay flat on it, holding an open letter in her hand.

If it weren't for the bloody wound on her chest and the torn clothes on her body.

Others would definitely think that she was just resting her eyes.

Picking up the envelope, the content appeared in front of An.

Dear Lucy, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much.

I still remember the time when I met you on Kachis Island.

Your beauty, cuteness, and gentleness are engraved in my mind...

I recently found a good job. When we meet next time, I will propose to you.

Looking at the tragically dead Lucy.

An folded the letter and put it in his arms.

The long sword came out of his body, picked up the bed sheet, An let it fall gently, and quietly left the room.

In the remaining time, An found the 11 pirates in the cabin one by one and executed them.

And entered every room to find out if there were any survivors.

After searching for a while, An found nothing except the scene of hell on earth.

Afterwards, An walked out among the navy soldiers who kept pouring in.

Leaving the cabin

The battle on the deck has been transferred to the pirate ship.

An has no intention of participating in the battle on the pirate ship.

Standing on the White Swan, looking around, there are corpses everywhere.

There are men, women, old people, children, babies, pirates, guards...

Countless!

Is this a pirate?

Even after An's will became stronger, he could not adapt to this purgatory-like scene.

He resisted the nausea in his heart and walked towards the warship in silence.

On the pirate ship.

Charles, who turned into a minotaur, rushed left and right in the encirclement of the navy team, trying to escape the encirclement.

Listening to Kuli's report on the battle.

"In this battle, except for Charles, the captain of the Iron Bull Pirates, who is still alive."

"The rest of the pirates were all annihilated, killing 45 pirates, and there were no casualties on our side."

An was not surprised by this result.

Kuli then reported, "No one survived on the White Swan passenger ship."

"From the cabin of the Iron Bull Pirates, 24 hostages were rescued, including 6 men, 17 women, and 1 girl. The personnel are currently temporarily placed on the deck."

Listening to Kuli's report, An turned his head to look at the hostages rescued on the deck.

They were pale and thin, ragged, covered with wounds, and sitting on the deck with their heads down.

An walked over and rubbed his cheeks.

He squatted in front of a cute little girl, smiled and whispered, "Hello, little sister!"

The little girl looked at An's clean and beautiful hair.

She stepped back carefully.

She had only seen such beautiful hair on the head of the scary woman on the pirate ship.

An smiled awkwardly and took out a bag of bread from the system space.

He tore open the package and handed it over, saying, "I'm not a bad person."

The little girl hesitated for a while, but she couldn't resist hunger after all, so she took the bread and ate it in big mouthfuls.

Looking at the little girl eating the bread, An asked again.

Maybe because she ate An's bread, the little girl finally said her name.

"Sally", a soft voice came from the little girl's mouth.

An then asked, "How old are you this year?"

"11 years old."

"11 years old?"

Sally's words hurt An's nerves. Looking at the little girl in front of her, who was covered with wounds and skinny, she was actually the same age as herself.

Looking at the people squatting on the deck, An could not see any life or hope in their eyes.

There was only numbness and despair.

On the wide deck of the warship, the sea breeze wafted with a strong smell.

The wailing of ordinary people.

The cruelty of pirates.

Purgatory in the cabin.

The corpse on the deck.

Sally in front of him.

All the people and things since he met the pirates appeared in front of An one by one.

The evil in the human heart was exposed.

An covered his face with one hand and just felt funny.

"Hahaha..."

An laughed sarcastically.

"This world is really rotten!"

An stood up, steadied his shaking body, and looked up at the sky.

For the first time, I felt that the sun was so dazzling.

Living on the same sea.

"Under the sun!"

"Above the dust!!"

"We are all human!!!"

"For the first time, An felt how strange "human" was."

"Bow down to the strong! Humiliate the weak!!"

"In that case, let's set a small goal first!"

"Restore this twisted world to normal!!"

Ann bent down and touched Sally's head, and said softly: "Sister will prepare some food for you."

Sally nodded fearfully, watched An leave, and then lowered her head to eat bread crazily.

It seems that he is worried that he will never be able to eat such delicious food again.

Arriving at the restaurant, An ordered the chef to prepare food for the survivors.

Back on deck again.

The battle on the pirate ship is not over yet.

Look at the lively Charles.

An suppressed her anger and shouted, "That's enough!"

"Major Cooley, let them come back! Leave the rest to me."

Cooley looked at An, who looked strange, and did not respond. Instead, he looked at Lieutenant General Garp.

Garp looked at An, knowing that what was supposed to come would eventually come, so he nodded slightly.

Any normal person will experience two changes after encountering pirates.

One is to become a ruthless pirate.

The second is to join the navy to protect the justice in your heart.

As for living on the last breath?

Is there any truly safe place in this twisted world?

After a few breaths.

All naval soldiers who received the news of the withdrawal returned to the warship.

On a pirate ship.

When Charles saw the navy retreating, he was secretly grateful to have survived, but he didn't know that greater pain was yet to come.

On the warship,

After the navy soldiers retreated.

Ann could no longer contain her anger.

All the anger turned into raging flames.

Sapphire's eyes suddenly turned bright red, and her body ignited with red flames.

Under everyone's surprised gazes, An jumped up from the deck.

A pair of huge flame wings sprouted from behind, standing in mid-air.

His eyes were fixed on Charles.

Slowly raise your right hand.

A stream of red flames surged toward the back, forming a huge phoenix shadow.

"Trash! Go to hell."

A crisp scream resounded throughout the sky.

"Sacred Bird·Destroy the World."

Following An's finger pointing, the huge phoenix silhouette flapped its wings and slowly rose.

When the loudest cry resounded across the sky, they dived rapidly towards the Iron Bull Pirates.

Charles the Iron Bull.

I saw the huge phoenix shadow standing there like a miracle.

Bang... The huge phoenix shadow fell from the sky and hit the Iron Ox pirate ship.

The picture of doomsday unfolds slowly.

A huge mushroom cloud slowly rose from the pirate ship, and strong flames spread in all directions.

As for the captain of the Iron Bull Pirates, Charles paid for his sins in flames.

ah……

This was Ann's deliberate move to make Charles pay for his sins.

Give an explanation to those who are suffering.

The slaves on the deck watched this scene and knelt down and kowtowed.

Listening to Charles's screams, everyone shed tears of gratitude.

Retreat quickly, increase power, all sails hoisted. Bogart shouted loudly.

Before the navy could take action, Garp took the lead.

"Fist Bone·Galaxy Impact"

Garp jumped up, and a large number of overlord colors wrapped around the iron fist.

Just one blow of the roaring wind blew away the huge flames.

Watching the flames scatter in other directions.

All the navy cheered in unison, "Long live Vice Admiral Garp!"

However, our protagonist Ann fell into a coma long after using this blow and was held in the arms of Major Cooley.

Look towards the center of the flame.

The Iron Bull Pirates and the White Swan have long since disappeared, and what is left is just a steady stream of seawater pouring in, symbolizing everything that happened here.

Since then, a legend has spread in the East China Sea, "Whenever there is evil in the world, the divine bird will come to punish the world."

"Windmill Village, Sister Maginot, have you seen it? What a beautiful big bird!"

"Corpo Mountain, Ace, have you seen that we will definitely become stronger than them in the future?"
