The Black Duke of the Pirate

A new world, a hidden island.

A wooden sailboat slowly approached the shore.

This seems to be an uninhabited island, with no port, no buildings, and no trace of humans.

The sailboat stopped next to an ancient boulder, and then began to drop the anchor. After a long time, the ship officially docked.

"What...why does it look like there's no one there?"

A voice rang out.

"Ah...could this be the final island?"

The man with three knives hanging on his body and long green hair also said in surprise.

They left Wano Country, sailed for a long time, passed countless islands, and finally arrived at this less and less populated sea area.

They thought that they were getting closer to the final island, so when they landed on this island, they thought that this might be the final island.

"Idiot, just because there is no one, it doesn't mean it is the final island."

The young man with blond hair nodded one eye and said mockingly.

His words reminded another woman. The woman's face was cold and sexy, and then she said to the woman on the other side: "Nami, look at the change on the permanent pointer?"

The red-haired woman on the other side was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted and took out a palm-sized permanent pointer.

"The pointer... stops spinning..."

Nami suddenly shouted.

She shook the permanent pointer violently, but there was no reaction on the pointer.

Even as a highly talented navigator, she was very confused about this situation.

But Nami continued: "The pointer is not pointing, does it mean that this is the final island we are looking for?"

"It's not that simple."

Robin shook his head, and everyone walked towards the island.

This group of people are all members of the Straw Hat Pirates. After they left the Country of War, they followed the direction of the permanent pointer and came to this island.

The island is covered with forests, wild animals, and flowing rivers.

At this moment, the ground shook with a rumble.

"What's wrong?"

Chopper immediately screamed in panic.

"It's a beast!"

Sanji immediately felt countless ferocious beasts running towards him.

"Mighty beast!"

Sanji said again that he could feel that these beasts were full of special power.

But Sanji suddenly reacted and immediately shouted to Luffy who rushed out: "Be careful, these beasts are all proficient in armed Haki!"

Sanji had never seen a beast with such terrifying armed color and domineering appearance. It was just a beast at all, but it actually gave people a heart-stopping feeling.

Sanji's level of cognition and domineering was extremely high, and he sensed all this immediately.

After he finished speaking, countless beasts rushed out.

"roar!"

After seeing the humans, the beasts roared loudly.

Amidst the beast's roar and countless shadows, the beast jumped dozens of feet and fell from the sky.

"careful!"

Sanji quickly reminded him, and Luffy's domineering aura immediately exploded.

The purple-red halo spread, covering all the beasts, but surprisingly, these beasts were not affected at all, and instead became more ferocious.

The beast bared its fangs that were as bright as cold light and rushed towards the crowd.

Seeing this, Luffy immediately entered the fourth gear, and rushed into the group of beasts with his armored and hardened body. Zoro directly used the three-sword style, slashing the blade in the group of beasts. Sanji's body was covered with invisible black feathers, and then the flames

Flashing among the herd.

Every flicker is like a phantom.

Jinbei assumed a fish-man karate stance and charged into the herd of beasts.

The other members of the Straw Hat Pirates also immediately used their maximum abilities to attack the herd.

The eyes of these beasts have a mechanical hollowness, as if they don't look like living creatures.

Luffy, who entered the fourth gear, punched one of the beasts. With a bang, a crisp sound came, and the beast jumped dozens of meters away, with strange electric light all over its body.

Everyone was stunned after seeing this scene.

"This is... a machine!"

Franky was the first to react and looked at the beast that erupted with violent lightning in surprise. Then he seemed to understand and immediately shouted to Luffy, "This is not a beast, it is made up of a machine and is controlled by a program.

"

As a Straw Hat Pirates scientist who is ranked among the best in the world, Franky can naturally tell it at a glance.

"machine?"

Everyone was stunned.

"How to release it?" Sanji asked quickly.

"There must be a scientific research base on the island to control these mechanical beasts. Just find the base and terminate it." Franky said quickly.

"A real scientific research base?"

Luffy asked loudly.

"Yes, it's a scientific research base!" Franky replied.

"Hey...got it."

Luffy suddenly raised the soles of his feet, and then his entire leg swelled up, and the soles of his feet swelled to hundreds of meters, covered with armed domineering energy.

"ah……"

Luffy roared angrily, and his huge 100-meter-long leg suddenly came down.

"Hey... Luffy, what are you doing..."

"You will destroy this island."

As Franky screamed, Luffy's huge foot hit the ground, and the nearby beasts were immediately destroyed by the air wave.

boom!

The entire island was shaken violently, as if the tectonic plates were moving, and a tsunami suddenly rose around the island.

A huge crater of a thousand meters suddenly opened up in the center of the island. The cracks gradually spread and almost completely shattered the entire island.

Click, click, click...

The sound of cracks on the ground continued to be heard, and then the ground suddenly collapsed into a terrifying giant pit, and the Straw Hat Pirates immediately fell into it.

"Ahhhh..."

"Luffy, you did a good job."

"I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."

It seemed like an endless abyss, extremely dark, and everyone fell into it. After a burst of frightened howls, the voices finally calmed down.

After a while, the island completely returned to calm.

Countless beasts on the ground were breathing fire and thunder. After the Straw Hat Pirates fell in, the beasts gradually dispersed.

In the darkness, a huge echo resounded.

"Zoro, Sanji, Jinbei, Nami, Robin..."

Luffy rubbed his numb head, stood up, looked around the darkness, and shouted loudly.

"Luffy...here."

"It's so dark."

"What the hell is this place?"

After a burst of shouting, lights lit up in the distance.

That was Franky's own lighting equipment, and the light illuminated this dark place.

After the lights came on, Franky was stunned by the surrounding environment.

"This is……"

"Scientific research base?"

Franky said in surprise, surrounded by various mechanical equipment and experimental equipment that looked more advanced than the pirate world.
