One Punch Man’s Unlimited Luck

"Shanks, don't you think that you can be presumptuous in front of me!!" Xing Tao said lightly, "The sacred tree is my treasure. If you cut off a branch of the sacred tree, I will kill you Ten Pirates!!"

As soon as the words fell, Xing Tao's pupils suddenly narrowed, and in an instant, an extremely cold breath burst out of him.

This aura doesn't seem to have any explosive power, but when it really enveloped the cadres of the red-haired pirates and Rayleigh, the two stronger people, Rayleigh and Shanks, are alright, Ben Baker Man and the other cadres suddenly felt as if they had fallen into an icehouse, and every hair on their bodies stood on end.

Cold, dark, terrifying. The huge murderous aura so powerful that it makes people tremble is like a ferocious monster rushing towards him. They clearly felt that everything about them seemed to be dulled by this incomparably huge murderous aura. They didn't even dare to look at Xing Tao with their eyes.

What surprised them even more was that the water droplets flowing down from their bodies seemed to have become sluggish, and gradually the drops of water condensed into strings of ice beads, hanging on their bodies.

At this moment, they can clearly feel their heartbeat, the flow of their blood, and even the changes in the surrounding wind and waves. But the most important thing is-their bodies can no longer support themselves.

Although Rayleigh and Shanks on the side were not as nervous as the others, they also felt as if they had fallen into an extremely terrifying hell, as if they would suffer merciless blows from the other party as long as they made a rash move.

This was the first time that Xing Tao fully demonstrated his killing intent.

This is the murderous aura formed by Xing Tao after he traversed several worlds. It is like the terrifying murderous aura of Asura hell. This is a terrifying murderous aura that no one in this world can match. Under this murderous aura, most people will tremble and be unable to act.

But this murderous intent was just to deter Shanks and the others, and it was just a one-shot. If they continue to stay in this kind of murderous aura, I am afraid that their knowledge and arrogance will be affected by the murderous aura and will be permanently dulled.

After Xing Tao's killing intent subsided, Shanks and Rayleigh could not speak for a long time. They are not young anymore, and it is impossible for them to rush forward without knowing what to say, like a single-minded Luffy.

And in terms of strength, at the level of Shanks, it is basically the peak. It is almost impossible for Shanks to continue to improve. As for Lei Li, he is getting older and his strength will definitely continue to decline in the future, and he has no capital to fight against Xing Tao.

In this silence, all the protruding branches of the sacred tree were retracted, and Xingtao clearly saw that there were nearly twenty more patterns on the fruit on the top of the sacred tree.

For those who passed out, all their devil fruits have been pulled out by the sacred tree. Only Drago and the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates ran out.

As for Quan, as early as Kaido's death, she received Xingtao's instructions and led the team to leave.

Chapter 167 The Root Cause of Being a Pirate

After taking back the sacred tree, Xingtao shouted loudly: "Dorag of the Revolutionary Army, please come over here!!"

Drago, who was about to run away before, frowned, stopped in his footsteps, and looked at Xing Tao hesitantly. He really didn't know whether he should listen to Xing Tao's words, and ran back.

In the decisive battle with Hawkeye before, I couldn't see anything, but killing Kaido completely stunned everyone. Xing Tao's strength was completely beyond Drago's expectation. He asked himself that he would never be Xing Tao's opponent. .

But these things went through in his mind for a while, and then Drago turned around and flew towards Xingtao.

As the leader of the Revolutionary Army, since he showed up, there was no need to hide, or else his reputation would be bad. Moreover, he himself is also the owner of the domineering look, even if he dies, it is unlikely that he will deliberately avoid anyone.

Soon, Dorag came to Xing Tao and the others. He stared at Xing Tao: "What can you do with me?"

Xing Tao waved his hand, signaling to Drago not to worry.

Then Xing Tao looked at Lei Li and Shanks, and said with a light smile: "Ray Li, Shanks, what do you think pirates are?"

The two were taken aback for a moment, they didn't expect Xing Tao to raise this question at this time. However, both of them adhered to Roger's thoughts, and replied at the same time: "Pirates are the freest people on the sea!!"

"Then what do you think freedom is?" Xing Tao said lightly, "Is it not bound by the law, indulging your inner joys, sorrows, joys and desires, or burning, killing, looting, or compassion; Different characters, landscapes; or simply do not want to be bound by any constraints, and simply let go of yourself?"

"Hehe!" Lei Li smiled and said, "I, an old man who has lived in seclusion, don't think about these things anymore, I just want to spend my old age peacefully."

Shanks on the side said: "I don't know what other people are like, but for me, the so-called freedom is to fulfill my dreams. My dream is to form my own pirate group and travel around world!!"

"And after you formed the pirate group, you have lived in the New World for more than ten years!?" Xing Tao sneered, "In terms of area alone, the four seas are no smaller than the Great Airway, let alone the New World, which only occupies half of the Great Airline. world?"

"..." Red-haired Shanks fell silent.

His dream is indeed to travel around the world, but people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes. After forming the pirate group, he must think about those companions in his pirate group, as well as those forces that have taken refuge in him. He is no longer a person, no longer just the person who simply chased his dreams.

If it was him, of course he would travel around the world, but after having a lot of younger brothers, he would inevitably run around for his younger brothers.

Speaking of which, Shanks' own dreams are contradictory. There are natural conflicts in forming a pirate group and traveling around the world. One person can travel around the world freely, but if you bring a large group of people, you have to work hard for their food, drink, and life, and everyone has different dreams, so it is difficult to do it...

Seeing that Shanks fell silent, Xingtao said lightly: "Speaking of which, since your dream is to travel around the world, why do you have to use the banner of pirates? It's called 'adventure team', 'expedition team', Isn't 'tourist group' bad? Why do you have to be a thief?"

Without waiting for Shanks to answer, Xingtao said leisurely: "Speaking of which, this is Roger's sin. He made the title of pirate so vigorous that countless people yearn for it. This is why pirates have emerged endlessly over the years. The reason. And I have to say, 99.9% of the pirates are the scum of the world, ten thousand deaths cannot atone for their sins!!”

Said, Xing Tao turned his eyes to Shanks again, and said: "I killed Gilder Tezolo. I heard that he often offers money to your pirates!?"

"That's right!! Our pirate group took his money." Shanks nodded, he seemed to guess what Xing Tao wanted to say, and he continued, "It's not just him, our pirate group Various countries and families within the sphere of influence have offered money to our pirate group; as a price, we will protect them from harassment by other pirates and government officials!!"

"Actually... In the final analysis, the reason why you chose the name 'Pirate' is actually because of these ill-gotten gains!!" Xing Tao said lightly, "Thieves don't have their own industries. , need to draw people's fat and people's anointing from other places to survive, or steal, or rob, or threaten..."

"If you use the banner of 'adventure team', 'expedition team', or 'tourist group', won't you be able to justifiably get funds for enjoyment?" Xing Tao said contemptuously, "Speaking of which, 'thief' This title, for honest people, has a natural deterrent effect. This also makes your efforts far less than what you gain."

"Pursue the fruit of honest people's labor to chase your dreams, this is the status quo of you pirates!!" Xing Tao finally said, "And this is just a part of the more peaceful pirates, as for those who wanton indulge themselves , Burning, killing and looting pirates..."

"Enough!" Shanks yelled violently, interrupting Xing Tao's words, and at the same time his domineering arrogance burst out along with this yell.

Of course, for everyone present, this level of dominance is just like a breeze.

"You don't agree with me?" Xing Tao chuckled, "Then tell yourself, you insist on using the banner of 'pirate', what is the specific reason? It's really not because of the high profits of the pirate business What freedom? It’s just an excuse for you…”

"If you have the titles of 'adventure team', 'expedition team', or 'tourist group', it will be difficult to obtain the funds necessary for the operation without the support of the sponsor!!" Xing Tao sneered, "When the time comes, you will have to Engaging in activities that one does not want to do every day to obtain funds for action is naturally 'not free'."

Chapter 168 Pirate's "Freedom"

For most people, the so-called "freedom" is to do what they want to do. And things like work are exactly what most people don't want to do. This is even more true for Shanks and others. So the best way is to find a line of business with fast money, and then use the money to support yourself to find your dreams.

And "Pirate" is precisely this kind of business with quick money! !

There is no need to steal or rob, just show your strength and help others solve some problems. Then the other party will get a lot of money beyond work because of the name and strength of "Pirate"! !

This is Shanks' source of income.

This is still a source of income for good-style pirates like Shanks and the others; as for Kidd in Supernova, it is directly burning, killing, and looting.

To be honest, in Xing Tao's eyes, Shanks and the others are not as good as Doflamingo! !

At least Doflamingo still has his own business, such as arms trade, casinos, human traffickers and the like.

Except for the taint of "human trafficker", Doflamingo is actually doing legitimate business; rather than saying that Doflamingo is a pirate, he is a businessman! !

The people in the original book are also very funny. They even attribute all the crimes of war to Doflamingo who sells weapons. It seems that without his weapons, the world would be peaceful? To be honest, they brought down Doflamingo, but they were temporarily unarmed. After finding new arms dealers in the future, they still had to fight!

In fact, there is a deep thing hidden in the original work of "One Piece", that is-money.

When Luffy first went to sea, he had no money, so he set off on a wooden barrel. But can you count on conquering the sea and the great route with wooden barrels?

As for the later ship, the Golden Meili, it was a gift given to him after he helped others. But giving such a boat as a gift of more than ten or twenty meters is basically the limit. Even if it is done well, it is unlikely that others will give a stronger boat.

You know, even for a navy supported by the financial resources of the world government, every warship is very precious.

Without a good ship, what can we use to conquer the sea? Let alone a dream.

Later, the Wanli Sunshine was bought at a friendly price at a price lower than the cost. You must know that in the original book, Luffy and the others only paid the material fee, and the design fee and labor fee were not paid at all; and the later maintenance fee was also paid because Frankie was on the ship, so he didn't take any money. In fact, these are the bulk of the ship.
