I summon heroic spirits in the world of pirates

"There is a reason why this sea area is not occupied by the four emperors." Looking at the pirate ships standing together, Stussy was as interested as if she had watched a long-awaited movie. The wine in her goblet was filled with her Shaking and shaking, drinking and not drinking, just rising and falling in the goblet.

"The sea area with abnormal weather conditions causes weather disturbances here from time to time, and Yayabo Island is the center of this chaos." Stussi said softly, "After the melee, it is a real test."

She looked at the leading Handsome Pirates and the Kuzar Pirates, and saw Cavendish piercing Kuzar's heart with a powerful sword skill, and couldn't help but applaud this wonderful performance. .

"Easily defeated the pirate with a bounty of 900 million. It seems that even without the second personality, Cavendish is still worthy of his 8000 million berry reward." Stusy said.

On the sea, cannonballs are indeed the most commonly used and popular weapons.But in the face of strong men, the cannonballs seem a bit useless. The cannonballs circulating on the sea are also very ordinary. After all, the Navy has a genius scientist Vegapunk. It is impossible for this genius to be wrong and often used at sea. The artillery shells have been updated, so the artillery shells owned by the navy must be much more powerful than those on the market.But this thing is very difficult to get. Ordinary pirates really can't get this thing, so when ordinary artillery shells are available, neither side can actually take advantage of the cannonballs.

So whoever gets rid of the opponent's boss first is the most important thing. Kusar is the type who wants to use his small skills to gain greater benefits. After all, he has solved some pirates with higher bounties than him, so this time he is also eyeing Kavin. Dish.

But he didn't expect that Cavendish was really strong. He was at a disadvantage for a while, and even his own life was taken away by Cavendish's exquisite sword skills.

The Kusar Pirates, who had hoped to win the first place in this celebration, were destroyed before they even left Ayabo Island.

The boss was killed and the remaining evidence was insufficient. Cavendish announced the attack under the horrified eyes of the members of the Kusar Pirates. In a very short period of time, the ship was destroyed and the members died. He jumped into the sea to escape and withdrew from the competition.

Cavendish, who was firmly in first place at this stage, then stood on the bow of the ship again and commanded the ship to move forward again.

In addition to the cave waterways on the east and west sides leading to the center of Yayapo Island, there is also a huge open-air waterway pointing to the north side of the island. The bows of all ships point here. After discovering the Kusar Sea After the pirate group was sunk, the vigilance against the Handsome Pirate Group rose to several heights, and they were also a little anxious.

Everyone can see that this pushy guy seems to be very concerned about his ships. The quality and materials of the ships are better than those of most pirates. This also results in the opponent's progress not being slow. If he doesn't use some special means to really will be further and further apart.

Compared with the anxiety of many pirate groups, Stussy leaned forward a little while looking at the image, and his interest seemed to intensify.

"It's coming," Stussy said. "The inanimate attackers from the sky and the sea are coming..."

As the words fell, many pirate groups suddenly noticed that the sky had dimmed at some point.

They couldn't help but look up at the sky, and the next moment they opened their eyes wide and shouted loudly: "The hail is coming!"

It would be okay if it was ordinary hail, but the people present were all guys who had been in the Grand Line, and it was definitely not ordinary hail that could make them scream subconsciously.

Everyone in the handsome pirate group also looked up at the sky, with exaggerated facial expressions blooming on their faces.

"This is too big!"

Hailstones about the same size as ordinary people continued to fall, creating huge splashes one after another on the sea.

Ships were constantly trying to avoid it, and no one wanted to think that a huge hailstone would hit people after it fell, causing a hole in both the people and the ship.

While they were dodging, a ship that was supposed to be the last one also caught up.

This ship did not fly the pirate flag, nor was it painted with any skulls. Among all the pirate ships, it was one of the few non-pirate ships to participate in the celebration.

But this doesn't mean that the pirates don't know the people on this ship. The people standing on the bow of the ship will basically never forget it as long as they have read the reward issue.

After all, the guy who was offered a bounty of [-] million beli for the first time was very rare even in the new world, so this group of people also remembered the face and name of this young man.

Fujimaru Tachibana.

……

"This is Fujimaru Ritsuka's ship!"

"Isn't this ship the last one? I looked back after we set off, and the other party obviously didn't move immediately. And I remember, didn't Bernard Lyle want to cause trouble for the other party? You can Don’t joke about the fact that the Bernard Pirates have been eliminated, Bernard Lyle is a pirate with [-] million berries!”

"...But it seems that Bernard Lyle is really finished. I saw the pirate flag floating on the sea and the wreckage of Bernard's ship."

"?!"

"In other words, did the other party catch up after solving the Bernard Pirates?! Are you kidding..."

Conversations like this happened among many pirate groups. They may all regard Chaldea as their biggest enemy at this time, but now they are avoiding hail and it is difficult for them to even aim their cannons at the opponent's ships, let alone The opponent has defeated the Bernard Pirates, and if they fire rashly, it will probably bring disaster to themselves, so now they can only say on the ship that if the hail stops, I will be the first to bombard the opponent.

As soon as these words were spoken, a ship was hit by dense hail. A huge hole fell from the deck to the bottom of the ship, causing seawater to surge into the cabin and the ship sank.

Seeing this situation, Okita Souji panicked and shouted: "It's not good, Master, it's hard for us to escape from such dense hail?!"

If you are very likely to be hit based on your riding level, but the person driving the boat is a stronger maid, your words are likely to arouse the opponent's competitive spirit.

"What nonsense are you talking about, Okita!" As expected, Artoria snorted coldly after hearing Souji Okita's words, "Are you underestimating my sailing ability as a professional maid? How dare Okita just do that? Say it this way."

The sickly swordsman lady who was called Messy Okita did not utter a rebuttal. She was afraid that the other party would deliberately sail a ship and let a hailstone fall on her head due to a displeasure, causing a tragic murder, so she could only murmur and run to Fujimaru Rachi. After all, no matter how stupid she is, she knows that Artoria cannot deal with Fujimaru Ritsuka, so standing next to Fujimaru Ritsuka is the safest.

"Is this the first level arranged for this celebration? Although it is very interesting, the challenge is not too small." Cu Chulainn looked up at the sky, "This can only filter out some people who are unlucky and very powerful. What a bad guy, no pirate group with any strength can be eliminated at this moment."

"That's what I say, but Lancer, I always feel that this first level is not that simple." Artoria said, "For example..."

boom----

The sea seemed to roar, and huge ice blocks suddenly emerged from the sea. The slightly flat ice blocks directly smashed the advancing pirate ship.

Incredible sounds sounded from all directions, and no one expected that in addition to the hail in the sky, there were also enemy attacks in the sea.

But if you think about it carefully, this is normal. You must know that this is a new world and the Grand Line.Even some islands here are full of food and snacks. Is it normal for there to be huge ice cubes hidden in the sea?

Although it was normal, it did not prevent the pirate who was unable to move forward from the destroyed ship to curse loudly.

……

"Wow, wow, wow! An obstacle in the sea is coming?! Get out of the way, Miss Artoria!" Souji Okita waved his hands in a panic. She didn't know how to use light cannons, and it was too difficult for her to deal with such a large piece of ice blocking the road.

"Just watch carefully." Artoria was very calm.

The New Chaldea is a ship built by one of the top shipbuilders in the Capital of Seven Waters. It is not said to be top-notch, but it is still much better than ordinary ships.

Under the control of Arturia, the New Chaldea rushed straight towards the huge ice floe that raised its slope.

"Da Vinci, work!" Arturia also issued an order at the same time.

"Roger, my king~" Leonardo da Vinci said and took out the machine that made bubble wrap on Fish-Man Island.

In a very short time, the bubble wrap wrapped the New Chaldea, and the next moment the ship hit the ice floe and then charged upwards by inertia.

The bubble wrap slid on the ice floe, quickly reached the top of the ice floe and leaped into the air without losing speed.

The bubble wrap burst in time, the roaring wind caused the sails to inflate, and the New Chaldea completed a short flight in mid-air.

Under the wide-eyed gazes of all the pirates, he passed most of the ships and steadily ranked first.

"How is it? Is this considered a great victory for Artoria?" Artoria held her head high while holding the rudder.

Of course, Lancelot was the first to respond and praise. After all, he couldn't remain silent when his own king was seeking praise, right?

But Artoria doesn't care about the flattery of her Knights of the Round Table. Of course, what she wants to hear most is the praise from Fujimaru Ritsuka, followed by the praise from the assault girl and the idiot emperor that she doesn't like, and the praise from the rest of the people. It can only be classified as the third sequence and I will only be happy for a short time.

"Tsk, the cold-blooded girl really stole the show this time." Jeanne d'Arc Alter also had to admit that Artoria's operation was very powerful this time, but she couldn't sail a boat otherwise she would have to compete with her opponent. fight.

"Hmm, as far as sailing skills are concerned, I will just praise this cold-blooded maid this time." Nero muttered.

Okita Souji scratched his head, always feeling that his sense of presence was reduced a lot after his lines were taken away.

Chaldea's operation is indeed unique. Many ships avoid hail and ice floes and continue to move forward, but no one will risk the bottom of the ship to be destroyed by gliding on the ice.But it turns out that the reward the crazy guy gets after his success is worth it. He was obviously the last one but now he is at the front. This is something that many pirates did not expect.

Some people were unwilling to fire cannons to see if they could hit the hull of the New Chaldea, but they were blocked by slashes in mid-air. The shells exploded, and then the slashes continued, and they fired cannons to attack Chaldea with ill intentions. The ship was hit and sunk by three baboons.

Nearly half of the participants were eliminated in the first test. Although it didn't last long, Stussy found it particularly exciting.

"Those people in Chaldea are very powerful. I probably know why you and the Donquixote Pirates were defeated, Kuro." Stussy said, "Being able to quickly eliminate Bernard Lyle and His pirate group then climbed from the last place to the front. In terms of novels and comics, this Chaldean is a natural protagonist."

"Don't bring that stuff to life, Stussy," Kuro said.

"But I think this is indeed the best evidence to explain what just happened." Stussy smiled, "It will be even more clear if they can still pass the second level easily."

"What follows is an even more tragic battle." Kuro whispered, "This is not a windless zone, but there are many huge sea kings living there. There are many sea kings on the waterway between Yayabo Island and the unknown island in the north. Many gathering places...are coming.”

He looked at the image and saw the Sea Kings roaring out of the sea and breaking up a ship. That was the ship where the pirate bombardier Coran, who had a bounty of 7000 million berries, was on.Neptunes are killers in the sea. Even though some people like to eat the meat of Neptunes, the average person has to pay a high price for catching one. Neptunes in the windless zone are surprisingly large and difficult to catch. Although the sea kings in the waters near Yayabo Island are not as good as those in the windless zone, they are only slightly worse. Their sudden attacks in groups cannot be completely solved by one or two pirate ships, even if the pirates on the ship have a history A reward of billions.

"But don't underestimate this group of people. Those who can survive in the new world have certain methods." Stussy said.

In the image, Cavendish, the captain of the Handsome Pirates, took action. Facing the Sea Kings blocking his progress, Cavendish just jumped up high. The sword in his hand seemed to shine with light, blocking the flashes of sword light. The sea kings on the way bleed and fall down.

The same situation also happened to the Francis brothers. As great pirates with a bounty of 3000 million berries, the Francis brothers were stronger than Cavendish in terms of pure destructive power.

Each of the Francis brothers in the image was holding a big knife, slashing at the Neptune species, constantly taking away the flesh and blood of the Neptune species.Then there was a salvo of artillery fire, and dozens of cannons roared continuously on Brother Francis' ship. Within a few hits, the Sea King could not hold on and sank to the bottom of the sea.

As Stussy said, pirates who can survive in the new world have certain means. It is impossible for just one or two Neptunes to block the way.

However, the most indispensable thing around Yayapo Island is the sea king species. One or two cannot stop them, but what about five or ten?

Or maybe more?

Stussy looked at the pirate ship being gradually destroyed and shook his head slightly.

"It's still a bit hasty. There's no way these rotten fish and shrimps can become the Shichibukai." Stussy said.

Although she found it interesting at first, the pirates' embarrassment started to bore her again.

She sipped the red wine and seemed to want to get up and go outside to enjoy the breeze and wait for the final result.

But a sudden scene somewhere in the video made her give up the idea.

That was the location of the New Chaldea, and the water around the ship seemed to be boiling for some reason.

A large number of iron piles appeared out of thin air. They easily penetrated the skin of the Neptune and held it up. Then the fire burned so hard that the sea looked like it was on fire.

Then clusters of scarlet arrows fell from the sky, bringing punishment like a torrential rain.

For a moment, the sea near the ship seemed to be ruled by them. The sea kings there were sentenced to death, and the sea was also covered in flames.
