Pirate: Role-Playing System

Chapter 161: Keeping Things Hidden in the Heart (Third Update Request)

Although Sabaody Archipelago was temporarily sealed off due to Uchiha Madara's incident, it is still the closest island to the Naval Headquarters and the Holy Land Mariejois.

After the sealing, it gradually regained its prosperity. Of course, despite the continued existence of darkness after the Marine's cleansing, it was weak and far from being as stable as before. The people on the island still lived relatively well. At most, people like Shakky, who relied on the darkness for a living, would occasionally complain.

Life went on as usual, with pirates occasionally coming and the Marines occasionally chasing after them. It seemed like everything was gradually returning to how it used to be. However, today seemed a bit different.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The island trembled!

The enormous Yaruki crimson trees shook continuously, causing leaves to fall incessantly!

The waves seemed to be stirred up, undulating without end!

A tsunami was approaching!

"What's going on?"

"Why is the sea suddenly in turmoil?"

"A tsunami? Quickly inform the Naval Headquarters!"

Everyone was shocked and could only barely maintain their composure. The foundation of their composure was that the Naval Headquarters was nearby, and Admirals like Kizaru, Akainu, and Aokiji were stationed there. Even if a tsunami broke out, with the Admirals present, it would not be enough to destroy the Sabaody Archipelago with its 463 islands.

Sure enough, Admiral Aokiji quickly arrived and, using the power of his Frozen Fruit ability, froze the tsunami and saved the island.

"Really, why did a tsunami suddenly occur..." Shakky complained, casually straightening the fallen bottle.

"And an earthquake... why did they happen together? Such bad luck."

Business was already not doing well, and now this?

What a hassle!

"Bad luck?" Rayleigh sat casually on the side and raised his head when he heard Shakky's complaint.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Shakky was taken aback.

"Nothing." Rayleigh squinted his eyes, and a glimmer of light flashed in his old eyes.

"If I remember correctly, that kid Zhao Xu hasn't been at the bottom of the sea for long..."

Shakky widened her eyes. "Are you saying that this incident was caused by Uchiha Madara's younger brother?"

She wasn't stupid and naturally understood the implied meaning in Rayleigh's words. But a tsunami and an earthquake, could a person cause such things?

"If I'm not mistaken, Uchiha Madara didn't come this time," Shakky uncertainly said. "That kid named Zhao Xu doesn't have much of a reputation either..."

Rayleigh didn't even lift his head at her words.

Reputation?

What does that have to do with strength?

TB...

Rayleigh couldn't help but reach for his sword.

Before Zhao Xu found him and revealed his identity as "Uchiha Madara's younger brother," Rayleigh almost couldn't resist making a move.

Because...

He sensed a dangerous aura from Zhao Xu.

A threat far surpassing Garp and Sengoku, whom he had dealt with in the past!

Even surpassing his former captain...

"After seeing him, I haven't dared to put down this sword!" Rayleigh sighed deeply in his heart.

It really doesn't feel good to face the vague threat that is transmitted through the nerves without a weapon!

Even though I know in my heart that there is no grudge between him and me...

The sea surface is like this, not to mention the underwater.

The atmosphere in the Ryugu Kingdom is constantly turbulent, almost damaged.

Many fishmen were scared and quickly ran out to help stabilize the bubbles.

Even the occasional humans staying in the Fishman Island were frightened and bought a lot of bubble helmets at all costs, fearing that the huge bubble would break at any time.

But what reassured people was that the large bubble eventually held on.

"Really, what on earth is going on?" Neptune's face still showed some fear.

The Ryugu Kingdom has not experienced such a situation for a long time!

The earth shook and the sea water trembled.

If it weren't for the bubbles still being taken care of, and the various protective measures taken by the fishmen, it would really be dangerous.

"But... after the shaking stops, we must quickly find Zhao Xu!" Neptune's eyes flashed with worry.

"It's difficult for humans to survive in this kind of shaking!"

In fact, not to mention humans, even fishmen would find it difficult to survive in this kind of shaking.

Especially considering the direction Zhao Xu left, it seems to be the epicenter...

If something happens to Zhao Xu... the Fishman Kingdom will have to face that terrifying Uchiha Madara!

Thinking of that existence, Neptune's face darkened.

Just a name is enough to make him terrified!

Even the flag of Whitebeard, which represents the country, cannot make him feel safe.

"What are you doing? How did it become like this?"

Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded, and Neptune looked over in surprise, only to see Zhao Xu dripping wet, carrying a head in his hand.

"Zhao Xu?! You're still alive!" Neptune exclaimed in joy, unable to help but want to go over and take a look.

But he was casually pushed aside by Zhao Xu.

"I only go after girls, not guys, thanks." Zhao Xu said casually, then handed him the head in his hand.

Neptune instinctively took it, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the head of Vander Decken IX?

He actually killed Vander Decken IX in this kind of shaking?!

Hmm, with Neptune's imagination, he never thought about the true source of this shaking.

"Zhao Xu..."

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded.

Zhao Xu instinctively turned his head, only to see a woman with wet hair and several bruised marks on her head walking over.

"Robin, what happened to you?" Zhao widened his eyes. "Who beat you?!"

This appearance is completely like being beaten up ten times!

"No, I'm not like you, I didn't have any conflicts with anyone..." Robin's face was full of despair.

"Then what happened to you?"

"Just now, there was an earthquake on my side."

"Yeah."

"I was shaken to the ground first, then various rocks and coral reefs came flying at me, then I was shaken into a stream, and then inexplicably shaken up and hit a rock..."

Robin's mouth twitched, she didn't know why she was so unlucky.

A series of events seemed to be targeting her.

"Haha... hahaha." Zhao Xu instinctively burst into laughter, but then suddenly froze.

"Huh, these shaking seems to be caused by me?"

He turned his head and glanced at the dirt-covered Robin.

He has become a mature man and needs to learn to keep things in his heart.
