The ghost sword hero of the pirate

Leaving aside people from all over the world, the first people to react to the Battle of Malachy Island were those buyers who wanted to buy paddle steamers.

After learning that the Nether Pirates and the Navy had started a war on Malachi Island, these people did not choose to go back to stay away from this place.

Instead, they all sped up and rushed towards Malachi Island.

Before the sun set, a force finally arrived on Malachi Island - the King's army of Broccoli Island.

In the New World, Broccoli Island is the closest large island to Malachy Island, so it makes sense that they would arrive first.

The army has three ships in total. On the largest ship at the head, an old man wearing armor and a white beard stands on the bow.

He is the king of the Broccoli Kingdom, and he is observing the situation on the island with a long telescope.

"Your Majesty the King, we have entered the range of Malachi Island, do we want to continue to get closer?"

Behind the old man, a middle-aged man who looked like a general stepped forward and asked.

"Get closer!? Just wait, there is no winner between the Nether Pirates and the Navy, so we can only wait.

As for getting too close, forget it, for those of us, getting too close is tantamount to death!"

Putting down the telescope in his hand, the old man said with lingering fear.

The scene he just saw was something he would never forget for the rest of his life, and it also made him completely stop trying to fish in troubled waters.

The scene of lightning, thunder, and rolling lava made him understand that even with ten times more troops, there would be no benefit at all from this war.

Even if both the Nether Pirates and the Navy were harmed, it would be more than enough to deal with the Broccoli Kingdom.

Now, he only has one idea, which is to pay Bailey honestly to buy a paddle steamer from the Netherworld Pirates.

Of course, this is under the condition that the Nether Pirates win.

Hearing the old man's words, the middle-aged man was startled, thinking that's not what you said when he first received the newspaper.

However, he only dared to mutter these words in his heart, but he could not say them to his face, so he had to take out his telescope and look towards Malachy Island.

"This! Is this still a human being!?"

...

Magnifying the image in the telescope, the entire image is filled with endless electric light, and only the rough outline of the beach on the south side of the island can be seen.

Click——

A blue lightning bolt as thick as an arm appeared out of thin air, splitting the iceman that Kuzan had transformed into half. Then the violent energy exploded instantly, and the entire iceman was blown into debris all over the sky.

In fact, the Thunder Fruit itself does not have the ability to explode, but when a large amount of electric current passes through it, the ice inside the Iceman is evaporated by the heat generated by the electric current. The gas generated by the instant evaporation can no longer be suppressed, and the ice cube explodes.

Kuzan had no choice, the Thunder Fruit's attack power was really a bit foul.

If he did not enter the elemental state, he would probably be scorched by the constant thunder and lightning.

"Huh...! It seems like you can't hold on anymore, Navy."

Tesla looked at Kuzan who had reunited into an iceman and gasped.

In the battle between the two, Tesla had the upper hand.

On the one hand, with the speed of thunder and lightning, and with the level of development of sight, hearing, and color being about the same, it is easy to imagine how difficult it would be for Kuzan to attack Tesla.

On the other hand, there is the age gap.

Although within the navy, Kuzan's overall strength has met the standards of a lieutenant general, strictly speaking, he has not really grown up.

Kuzan was only 25 years old at this time. It had only been six years since he joined the navy. No matter how carefully Zefa taught him, he was still not up to par.

Looking at the world of pirates, except for some people with the aura of the protagonist who can surpass most powerful people at the age of about twenty years old, others still need to hone their talents no matter how good they are.

Garp, Roger, White Beard, and Golden Lion are all talented people, but looking at their experiences, they all started to become famous after they were thirty years old.

Therefore, even with powerful natural abilities and careful training by the navy, Kuzan is still not able to stand alone.

But Tesla is different. He is now in his thirties and at his peak.

Moreover, in order to find his ancestors, he was able to reach the New World all the way from the South China Sea, and it was definitely not luck.

After eating the Thunder Fruit, his strength has exceeded the level of an elite lieutenant general. If he is given some more time to continue to develop the fruit's abilities, his strength will be qualitatively improved.

"I have read your intelligence. With your strength and wisdom, you will be reused whether in the navy or the government.

I don’t understand, why would you choose to be a pirate instead of a scientist or navy that everyone respects?”

Under the broken sunglasses, Kuzan's eyes became serious and he said what he had been wanting to say since the battle.

Kuzan, who has never experienced the O'Hara incident, pursues "burning justice" in his heart, and really feels sorry for Tesla's joining the pirates.

"Hahaha! Although science is materialistic, I am idealistic. I have my own choice on how to live.

Therefore, the navy and the world government are not suitable for me. It is better to be a pirate and follow my heart."

Tesla's face was extremely determined against the backdrop of thunder and lightning, and he would not change his stance just because of Kuzan's words.

After hearing Tesla's answer, Kuzan still refused to give up and continued, "However, if your invention is used by pirates in large numbers, it will bring great disaster to the world, do you know!?"

Tesla's invention had just come out, and it had already touched the nerves of the entire world.

In such an empty situation, the navy sent Zefa to prevent the paddle steamers from flowing out. Kuzan experienced the other side of science for the first time.

"Don't be naive, Navy! There is no distinction between good and evil in science. My invention is just to change the world. As for what the world does with it, I have no control over it!"

Before he finished speaking, Tesla turned into a bolt of lightning and disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of Kuzan.

boom--

The fist shining with lightning approached rapidly. Kuzan had no time to elementally transfer his body in advance, and was hit in the chest by Tesla.

"Ahem...! Did you use lightning to hide your weapon colors?"

Kuzan stood up with difficulty, coughed out a large mouthful of blood, and murmured.

In the previous battle, only the frame of Kuzan's sunglasses was destroyed. Tesla's fist could not be seen clearly under the dazzling electric light, so he was hit by the weapon.

Seeing that Kuzan was barely holding on, Tesla approached step by step, then clenched his fists and prepared to end the fight.

call out!

Just when Kuzan thought he was about to die here, a ray of light appeared between the two!!

"Ah~, luckily I arrived. If you died here, Marshal Kong would kill me.

It’s scary just thinking about it~, what do you think, Junior Kuzan!?”
