Pirates: The wages are in place, the four emperors are kicked out

The new world, far away from the control of the navy, is the most chaotic sea area in the world. Countless pirates, civilians, and navy lose their lives on this sea every day - but this small island called "Line Island" is an exception.

one.

The place is not only orderly, but also very prosperous. The civilians doing business and the pirates staying here live together peacefully - this is an extremely rare sight in this world.

There is no other reason. There is a tall mast in the port of the small island. On the mast hangs a domineering flag that is larger than an adult and has a lion skull painted on it. This is the symbol of the flying big pirate Golden Lion. Here is his

territory.

Just like other islands in the New World that are sheltered by big pirates, there is a small town behind the port of Line Island. In order to meet the drinking needs of the pirates on this island, the not-so-large town has seven people.

Eight pubs.

Among these seven or eight pubs, the one with the best order and the best business is undoubtedly the pub called "Lion's Rest" in the center of the town.

You can go to other bars at any time, but this bar... you can't go at almost any time because there are always no seats available.

There are two main reasons why the business of the "Lion's Rest" bar is so good.

First, the history of this bar is the oldest among the bars on Line Island, and the history of the bar is long enough, which means that the bartender's skills are good enough, and this bar has treasures that other bars do not have.

Fine wine. This is undoubtedly very attractive to pirates who are addicted to alcohol and almost everyone drinks alcohol - even the vast majority of pirates cannot afford the good wine here.

Second, this bar is special enough - the owner of Line Island, the Flying Pirate Golden Lion, will appear in this bar from time to time. In fact, this bar is the property of Golden Lion, and the name of the bar also comes from

He, the bar owner, is his direct crew member.

After docking the "Tearman", the evil-minded pirate leader led Pencroft and his party straight to the bar.

"That mast that was erected in the port just now, whose flag is that pirate flag on it?"

Pencroft asked as if very casually.

"This... is the flag of the 'Cat Pirates' who occupy this island..."

The captain of the pirate group immediately panicked and said nonsense.

"Cat Pirates?"

First mate Rodel said disdainfully, "What kind of silly name is this? And I've never heard of it at all. This pirate group..."

"The Cat Pirates are the strongest pirate group in the New World, "

The leader of the pirate group carefully made up nonsense, "Their leader is 'Catsky' who has a bounty of 60 million Baileys..."

"Hey, 60 million Baileys, isn't that a full 90 million lower than the captain! And it's only one million higher than the new Fraser... This is too weak!"

A certain pirate from the Blood Ax Pirates laughed loudly, completely forgetting the fact that he was just a loser who didn't even have a bounty on his head.

"With a bounty of 60 million Baileys, you can occupy such a wealthy island. How dare you call yourself a great pirate and a powerful man in the new world?"

Rodel looked at the captain and said disdainfully, "It turns out that the pirates in the New World are all trash like you..."

(Let’s see how long you can continue to be arrogant! You rookies who don’t know the heights of the world!)

"Yes Yes Yes……"

Although he was cursing the other party crazily in his heart, the captain did not show any signs of it on the outside. He still nodded with a sorry smile and said, "For a weak pirate like me, the 'Catsky' with 60 million Baileys is already a big deal."

A big shot... But for you Blood Ax Pirates, the 'Cat Pirates' are nothing more than that. After all, Captain Pencroft is a powerful man with a bounty of 150 million Beli..."

"Well said, hahahaha!"

The pirates of the Blood Ax Pirates laughed wildly, causing some pedestrians on the road to frown secretly.

Although there are newcomers to the paradise who are desperate to break into the New World every year, such arrogance is indeed rare - especially in the territory of the Flying Big Pirate Golden Lion. The entire New World knows that this big shot is quite powerful.

of cruelty.

…

In front of the closed door of the "Lion's Rest" bar, the captain of the pirate group looked at Pencroft with some flattery, "Captain Pencroft, this is..."

Before he could finish his words, Pencroft gave a ferocious laugh and kicked him in the stomach.

"You really thought I would be fooled to death by you, what a fool!"

The door of the bar was instantly knocked open, and the captain of the pirate group flew in and hit the table of some pirates who were drinking. The old table and the wine bottles on it were thrown together.

Smashed to pieces.

These drunken pirates were also affected and knocked to the ground.

After a moment of silence, amid the uproar, the bar owner’s angry voice rang out:

"Who is it?! Don't you want to live anymore?! Dare to cause trouble on Lord Golden Lion's territory?!"

Pencroft, along with Fraser and the Blood Ax Pirates, swaggered in despite the curious, disdainful, or gloating looks of the pirates in the bar.

Ignoring the bar owner who looked like he was about to eat them, Pencroft looked at the captain who was moaning on the ground with a sarcastic expression.

"Actually, I have wanted to kill you for a long time. When you said those words about abandoning your companions... People who are not loyal have no value in living in this sea!"

"But just in time, don't you want to lure us to the Golden Lion's territory and make us suffer a big loss? We will just cooperate with you..."

"after all……"

Pencroft looked at the bar owner, and in the angry and puzzled eyes of the middle-aged man holding a cigar, he slowly said:

"This is the Golden Lion's bar, right? Someone, hurry up and contact him! Just say, I, Pencroft the Blood Axe, am here to take the head from his neck!"

After a moment of silence, there was a commotion in the "Lion's Rest" bar. Although not all of the pirates drinking here were subordinates of the Golden Lion, they all recognized the authority and strength of the flying pirate.

Therefore, Pencroft's words to provoke the Golden Lion seemed to them to be too arrogant and stupid.

"You rookie, do you know what you are talking about?!"

"Master Golden Lion can kill you with just one look! Why don't you burn your pirate flag quickly and apologize to Master Golden Lion!"

"Do you think this is still a paradise?! Newcomer! Are you not weaned yet?"

…

Unlike these pirates who cursed loudly, the owner of the bar, who was the direct subordinate of the Golden Lion - the one who should be angry the most, the expression on his face changed from anger to surprise and then to a smile.

"Are you Pencroft the Blood Axe?"

As the bar owner spoke, the other pirates in the bar immediately fell silent.

"Is there a second pirate named Blood Ax Pencroft in this world?"

Pencroft asked rhetorically.

"Hahahaha, interesting, he is indeed a super newcomer with a bounty of 150 million beli..."

The bar owner laughed and said, "Boss Shiji has been paying attention to you for a long time!"

"One hundred and fifty million Baileys?!"

"seriously……"

"Boss Gragas said so, it must be right!"

"I originally thought he was a stupid boy who didn't know the heights of the world, but I didn't expect that he actually had two brushes..."

After learning the amount of Pencroft's bounty, the looks in the eyes of these miscellaneous pirates changed when they looked at him - it was rare for a newcomer to get a bounty of 150 million beli in a place like Paradise.

Ignoring the change in attitude of these miscellaneous fish pirates, Pencroft smiled and said to the bar owner named Gragas:

"Oh? That's such an honor. I didn't expect that a big shot like Golden Lion would take the initiative to pay attention to me..."

"Among the pirates in the park, you are undoubtedly the first. The ability of the Superman-type 'Axe' fruit is quite good..." Gragas took a puff of his cigar and commented unhurriedly.

.

Before Pencroft could answer, Gragas looked at Fraser and Rodel behind Pencroft.

"These two of your men are also good newcomers...'Machete' Frazier with a bounty of 59 million Baileys, and 'Piledriver' Rodel with a bounty of 67 million Baileys...but I'm a little curious,"

Didn't Scimitar Fraser suffer a disastrous defeat in the New World before and then fled back? How could he become your subordinate now?"

"Why did Fraser become my subordinate? I shouldn't have to answer this question for you."

Pencroft sneered.

Fraser was pleasantly surprised by Gragas' question, because answering such a question could help him maintain his character and better hide his identity as a naval spy, so he took the initiative and said:

"I'm not strong enough, so of course I have to find a captain and pirate group with enough strength to challenge the new world again. Is there any better choice in the paradise than Boss Pencroft and his Blood Ax Pirates?"

"Hahahaha, interesting! You guy was not intimidated by the new world, but made a comeback... Should I say you have a backbone, or a stubborn one?"

Gragas laughed and said.

"Hey, can you hurry up and inform your boss, Golden Lion? Drunkard Gragas,"

Pencroft frowned and said, "Rather than talking to you about all this, I would rather see the style of the flying pirate..."

Gragas stopped smiling and looked at Pencroft expressionlessly: "Are you so anxious to die?"

"You have to try and find out if you are going to die..."

"Hmph... just wait here obediently..."

Gragas took a deep look at Pencroft and the others, and walked to the room behind the bar.

…

"Yes, Boss Shiji. The blood axe Pencroft has a bounty of 150 million beli, the scimitar Fraser has a bounty of 59 million beli, and the pile driver Rodel has a bounty of 67 million beli..."

"Your grand fleet plan is finally about to welcome its 100th captain!"

"Okay...ok..."

"I will prepare the wine and welcome you, Boss Shiji!"

…

After hanging up the phone bug, Gragas did not immediately return to the front hall of the bar, but came to the wine cellar where ice cubes were placed. Among the many small wooden barrels filled with wine, Gragas chose a very ordinary one.

one.

After placing his hand on the barrel, Gragas closed his eyes and activated his ability.

…

"Hahahaha, have you informed your boss, Golden Lion?"

Looking at Gragas walking out from behind, Pencroft, who was sitting in front of the bar and drinking, laughed. He was surrounded by members of the Blood Ax Pirates - the rest of the pirates who had been drinking in this bar before.

They all slipped away when Gragas went to the back just now.

Of course, no one dared to drink Bawang Wine, and they all obediently left their money on the wine table.

"Young people should not rush to die."

Gragas was obviously in a good mood. While shaking his body rhythmically, he opened the small wooden barrel in his hand.

The moment the small wooden barrel was opened, an extremely strong aroma of wine filled the entire "Lion's Rest" bar. After smelling this smell, Rodel closed his eyes in enjoyment, and Frazier couldn't help but secretly

Swallowed.

Pencroft, with bright eyes, asked Gragas directly: "What kind of wine is this? Is it for entertaining us?"

"You'll find out later."

"Later means..."

"Later means now! Jie hahahaha!!!"

Accompanied by extremely domineering laughter, the roof of the "Lion's Rest" bar suddenly cracked and opened a large human-shaped hole. Sunlight filtered in and dust filled the air.

Under the horrified expressions of everyone in the Blood Ax Pirates and the respectful gaze of Gragas, a man as domineering as a lion landed in the center of the bar!

The golden lion at this time is not the old lion who will be defeated by Wang Luffy in the plot of One Piece the Movie. Now he has sound legs and a normal mind. He has cultivated the three-color Haki to the extreme, developed the fruit ability to the point of awakening, and cooperates with it.

The most powerful swordsman in the world - it can be said that in today's sea, he is undoubtedly the man at the top.

Just like his golden hair that hangs unruly on the back of his head like a lion, the whole body of the golden lion exudes the aura of a "tyrant".

"The great flying pirate...the golden lion!"

Pencroft had already stood up, his eyes fixed on the golden lion that suddenly appeared in front of them in such a special way, his tone full of excitement and yearning.

"I rely on my ability to fly as I wish too many times, and occasionally I want to try the feeling of free falling with only gravity,"

The golden lion smiled and said, "So...are you the ones who want to see me?!"

Along with these words of the golden lion, the golden overlord-colored domineering energy that was already condensing into a solid form due to its excessive intensity suddenly erupted with him as the center! In an instant, the entire bar was covered by it!

Even if we look at all the top experts in the sea, the Golden Lion's domineering spirit is the most powerful among them. Because the overlord's domineering spirit is only related to a person's talent and courage, and today's Golden Lion is indeed like a real person.

Like a lion, he wants to swallow the whole world.

The domineering aura released by such a man is only as strong as the domineering aura of future red-haired and white-bearded men who can break the sky. In just an instant, he unscrupulously destroyed all the furnishings and tables in the bar.

, chairs, floors... all cracked under this terrifying power! Wine bottles made of relatively fragile materials were all crushed into powder!

Not only were the items severely affected, but people were also affected - the pirates of the Blood Ax Pirates, except Captain Pencroft, Fraser and Rodel, all rolled their eyes and foamed at the mouth.

Fainted.

Although the three Pencrofts did not faint, they were still more or less affected. The weaker Rodel and Frazier only felt that their blood was boiling, their heads were dizzy, and they almost couldn't stand.

Already.

Pencroft gritted his teeth and held his left hand in front of himself with a serious expression, as if this could weaken the influence of the golden lion's already substantial overlord-colored domineering energy on him.

Fortunately, the golden lion's overbearing and domineering release did not last long. Under the control of the golden lion himself, as if it suddenly appeared, it suddenly disappeared again.

Frazier felt as if the air had become lighter, leaning on the chair and breathing heavily.

Rodel completely lost control of his body between the tension and relaxation, and sat down on the ground.

At this point, the only people still standing in the bar were Golden Lion, Gragas and Pencroft.

"Although I have already been mentally prepared for this, it still opened my eyes... What a powerful spirit this is, Golden Lion..."

Pencroft sighed in a deep voice, "He is indeed a flying pirate!"

"Jie hahahaha, you have lived up to my attention..."

The golden lion nodded with satisfaction and laughed loudly, "But those two need to work harder."

"You don't have to say such things to enemies like us who want to take your life, Golden Lion..."

Pencroft said expressionlessly.

"The enemy who wants to take my life? Jie hahahaha!"

The golden lion seemed to have heard something extremely funny and laughed loudly.

"Have ambition! Young people! I have always been very tolerant of outstanding young pirates like you...after all, just like a lion never cares about threatening to eat its own rabbit, but will appreciate their courage.

…”

"Want to take my life? You can! Come and take it if you can!!"

"But are you ready? The price of provoking a lion..."

"Who would choose to face the flying pirate if they didn't have the consciousness of death?"

Pencroft's scalp tingled with excitement.

"Death? Jie hahahahaha! That outcome would be too boring and too simple..."

The golden lion laughed and opened his hands, as if he wanted to take the whole world into his arms.

"Winner takes all, loser takes all - if you lose, you will become the lion's claws, bear my name, and make trouble in this world for me!!"

"The Golden Lion Fleet happens to be short of the 100th captain who satisfies me. Do you want to come and see me? Jie hahahaha!!!"

Hearing what the Golden Lion said and seeing his domineering appearance, even Fraser, who knew very well that he was a naval spy, couldn't help but feel slightly moved.

In front of this man, his blood seemed to boil...

Is this the real big pirate?

Pencroft's reaction was about the same, but he did not forget his original intention of taking the head of the Golden Lion. After pressing his right hand on the fallen wine table, Pencroft activated the "Axe Fruit" ability

.

Pencroft is a superhuman ax fruit user who can turn anything he touches with his right hand into a sharp axe. The ax created by his ability will retain the original weight of the object, but when he

His hand was just like an ordinary axe.

Of course, this ability is not unlimited and comes at no cost. The greater the original weight of the item converted into an axe, the more physical strength Pencroft needs to consume - at present, even if he is exhausted to the point of collapse, he can only

Can turn a medium-sized merchant ship into an axe.

Accompanied by the unique red light caused by the activation of the Ax Fruit ability, the solid wood wine table turned into an approximately 80 cm metal ax, which was held in Pencroft's hand.

"Your abilities are somewhat similar to my abilities..."

The golden lion tilted his head and said with interest.

"That's such an honor..."

Pencroft's eyes flashed, and he threw the sharp ax at the golden lion's head mercilessly!
