One Piece: Fist of the World.

Chapter 167 [Ba Flash]

Gaya Island

This is a spring island on the Grand Line. With its suitable climate and abundant resources, it has always been a wealthy island. Since the beginning of the Great Pirate Age, pirates have flocked to the Grand Line. As one of the seven routes, Jaya Island has attracted countless pirates, making this already wealthy and prosperous island even more lively.

Pirates are a group of guys who live from hand to mouth and spend money recklessly. Although their burning, killing and looting have caused huge damage to many towns, they have also brought prosperity to some towns.

On the west coast of Gaya Island, there is a small town where the lawless criminals on the island gather. It is a paradise for the degenerate. Even pirates can land there openly. It is a real lawless area that is not under the jurisdiction of the government.

"The whole island is filled with laughter and roars."

The Polaris docked at the port of Magic Valley Town. Unlike other places, there were many pirate ships docked openly at the port of Magic Valley Town, instead of prohibiting pirate ships from docking like other ports.

Just by the coast, Rhodes could hear all kinds of sounds coming from the island, laughter, noise, fighting, wailing, all kinds of sounds mixed together, playing a melody of the great pirate era.

“It’s just like Tiger Shark Island.”

Nelu released his observation Haki and sensed the situation on the island.

“Such a familiar atmosphere.”

Genos stood up and stretched.

The atmosphere on this island made him feel like he was back on Tiger Shark Island in the North Sea.

"Woof woof woof~~"

Sissi ran to Genos and danced around him. She also felt a familiar breath.

"Let's quickly find out how to get to the Sky Island."

Nia looked at the town in front of her. It was just another typical pirate town, nothing special about it.

In comparison, she is more interested in the legendary Sky Island!

"I need to prepare some more ingredients."

Minina raised her hand.

The food on the ship was consumed too quickly, so every time she encountered an island, Minina would go up to replenish the supplies.

"I'll go with Minnina."

Luo looked at the town in front of him. The next place he was going to was Sky Island. He didn't know what kind of situation he would encounter, so it would be better to prepare more medicines.

"I'm not going."

Gray took a look at the town in front of him and turned back to his laboratory. He didn't have time to stroll around leisurely.

"Let's split up."

Rhodes glanced at everyone.

"Xachi, you stay with Gray to watch the ship; Luo, Minina, Pekin, Bepo, Genos, you guys will be responsible for purchasing; Naru, Nia, Bakara, Brooke, Kosha, your group will go to the town to collect information. Of course, Bakara needs to accumulate some luck! Robin, Bonis, you two come with me, we are going to find someone who has information about ocean currents."

Rhodes quickly arranged the personnel and then looked at the big bear.

"We're with Sister Minina!"

Bonnie raised her hand.

Because they both have the same hair color and are both big eaters, she likes Minnina very much.

"Then, come back and gather before dark."

Rhodes clapped his hands, then took Robin and Bonis towards the town.

He only vaguely remembered that the descendants of Rolando were also on this island, but he still needed to ask in the town for the exact location.

"Let's go too."

Luo set out with a few other people. The town looked very prosperous, so he wanted to get more medicine.

"Let's go too."

Nelu led a few people and walked in another direction.

With Rhodes and Robin going together to collect intelligence, the more important task of their team is to help Bakara accumulate luck.

In the tavern in town.

"By the way, do you know how to get to Sky Island?"

A voice sounded in the tavern, and a young man asked the boss.

The boss who was wiping the glasses was stunned for a moment, and the whole pub suddenly became quiet.

"Hahahahaha!"

"There are still people asking about Sky Island!"

"That kind of thing is just a boring legend. How can there be an island in the sky?"

"Are you really a pirate?"

"···"

The next moment, a burst of laughter rang out in the tavern. The pirates laughed wildly and slammed the table, as if they had heard a very funny joke.

“How could it be…!?”

The boy who had spoken earlier turned red in the face.

"The record pointer is clearly pointing to the sky."

He was a pirate who set out from the South China Sea. He had gone through numerous hardships and dangers along the way and finally arrived at this island. However, on the way to Gaya Island, their recording pointer had its magnetic force taken away by Sky Island, and the pointer was now pointing straight to the sky.

"Hahahaha, too naive."

"That's right, it's just that the record pointer is broken."

"That's right, how could something like an empty island exist?"

The other pirates in the tavern continued to talk one after another.

"There are all kinds of strange climates and environments on the Grand Route, but many secrets about ocean currents have been revealed, and the Sky Current is one of them."

"The ship was swallowed by the surging ocean current and rushed into the air, and then fell from the air into the sea. In the past, those ignorant navigators saw the ship falling from the sky and imagined the sky island out of thin air, thinking that there was another ocean in the sky and that there were islands floating in the air."

"But how could such a thing exist? The so-called record pointer pointing to the sky is nothing but a disorder of the magnetic field."

Amid the laughter of the pirates in the tavern, the boy who asked the question first blushed.

In his heart, two voices were arguing.

One of the voices was saying that there were many things in this world that were considered impossible but actually existed, and Sky Island was one of them. Sky Island must really exist. However, another voice was refuting that over the years, so many pirates who had passed through this sea area had never actually reached Sky Island. Perhaps Sky Island was really just a boring legend.

Bang!
The door of the tavern was suddenly kicked open, and then a group of people walked in.

Leading the group was a beautiful woman with purple hair. The wild aura she exuded made the pirates in the tavern's hearts jump.

"Oh my, the way you opened the door was so rude~"

A hot red-haired beauty followed him into the tavern, and her hot body made the pirates in the tavern excited.

"Yohohoho~"

A slightly strange voice came into my ears, and then a skeleton with an afro followed into the tavern.

"It doesn't matter. Almost all the people here are pirates."

Nia said, turning her head to look at Naylu who was following behind.

"To be precise, most of the consumers in this town are pirates."

"That's it."

Nia glanced at Bakara.

"But not before that."

Nia walked directly to the bar of the pub, asked the owner for a glass of wine, and then asked.

"Do you know anything about Sky Island?"

"Sky Island?"

The boss looked at Nia in slight surprise.

Generally speaking, taverns will also take care of some intelligence work, and as the owner of a tavern in Mogu Town, this boss naturally has a lot of intelligence. At least for some people who need attention on the sea, he knows them by heart.

Not to mention that before Rod became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, there was an issue of the Sekei newspaper that introduced all the members of Rod's pirate group, with clear photos.

He recognized Nia's identity as soon as she entered the tavern.

It's just that the Rod Pirates haven't appeared in the newspapers for a long time, and after Rod became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the bounties on them were cancelled by the Navy, so the boss was not too sure about Nia's identity for a while.

However, after seeing Nalu coming in last, the boss no longer had any doubts in his mind.

There is no doubt that the opponent is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, a cadre under Tyrant Rod, Catwoman Nia!
And that red-haired man is the top leader of the Lods Pirates, Black Spear Nayle, who once offered a bounty of 8200 million Baileys!
Since these two have appeared, does it mean that the adult has also come to Mogu Town?
Thinking of this, the boss' heart trembled. But why is such a person also asking about the information of Sky Island?

Could it be that Sky Island really exists?

"Hahahaha, there are people who still believe in this ridiculous legend about Sky Island."

Those pirates were not as sensitive as their boss and did not recognize Nia and the others' identities at all. After hearing Nia's question about Sky Island, they burst into laughter again.

"What happened today? I keep running into these naive guys."

"Hey, two beauties, come and have a couple of drinks with us. I'll let you experience the feeling of flying in the sky!"

"Hahahaha, Piris, stop bragging. I heard everything last night. You were done in three minutes!"

"Really? Only three minutes?"

"Ha ha ha ha!!"

"···"

The tavern was once again filled with laughter and cheers, the pirates slammed the table and teased Nia and Bakara.

“It’s too low-level.”

Nia tilted her head back and poured the wine into her mouth. The cold wine flowing down her throat made her calm down a little.

"Bacara!"

Nia turned to look at Bakara.

If she didn't have to wait for her to absorb the "luck" first, she would have wanted to kill all of them right now.

"Coming, coming~"

Bakara took off her gloves, put on a charming smile, and walked towards the group of pirates who made the loudest noise.

"Hahaha, come on, beautiful, why don't you just join me? I'm Ong Bakura, whose bounty is 4200 million berries! As long as you join, I'll let you be a cadre of my pirate group!"

"Hahahaha, Boss Lazar, you're lying again. The last beauty was killed by you in just three days."

"So they are just a bunch of scum."

The smile on Bakara's face faded slightly.

After hearing what these people said, she didn't even want to fake a smile.

"Stinky bitch!"

Lazar slammed the table and stood up. His nearly 3-meter height was quite oppressive. Both of his fists were covered with metal gloves with rivets and some dark red marks left on them.

"You don't really think you're anything."

Raza looked at Bakara with sadistic eyes.

"Kneel down for me!"

"People like this don't have any luck."

Bakara looked at her slender fingers.

The guy in front of her made her not even want to touch him.

"Fingergun!"

Bakara flicked his finger and an invisible attack flew out instantly.

Bang!
Lazar's head tilted back suddenly, and spots of blood appeared.

"Boss Lazar!"

The surrounding younger brothers suddenly stood up.

“Very capable!”

Lazar turned his head slowly. There was a deep mark on his forehead. Blood flowed down the wound, making his face look even more gloomy and brutal.

"But you angered me. I am [Boxing Master] Lazar! I will use my fists to smash your bones inch by inch!"

Laza clenched his fists, and the rivets on his fists reflected a cold light.

"Fortunately, Boss Rhodes didn't see it."

When Bakara discovered that his [Flying Finger Gun] was unable to kill the opponent with one strike, this thought immediately flashed through his mind.

For some reason, Boss Luoda was very strict with her training progress. If he saw that her attack failed to kill such a person, she would probably have to go through a hellish training again.

"I've been thinking about it since just now."

Bakara looked at the guy in front of him.

"How dare you call yourself that? You deserve to die."

As he spoke, Bakara's palm brushed over the people around him.

They are the subordinates of this so-called "Boxing King" Laza.

"You don't know what this is about. Go to hell!"

Lazar clenched his fist and swung it out.

It has only been half a year since he went to sea, but it was with his pair of blood-soaked fists that he made such a great name for himself.

"It's you who should be damned."

How dare you give me such a nickname!
Bakara clenched his fists, gathering all his strength and domineering aura.

As Bakara swung her fist, strands of black lightning appeared on her fist.

When using the external release of Armament Haki in combat, if the time between the impact of the fist and the impact of Haki is very short, black lightning will appear during the attack, multiplying the damage.

Generally speaking, only people with extremely powerful domineering aura can use it unscrupulously in battle and continuously attack with the outward release of domineering aura.

Those who are powerful have a strong control over their own strength, and with continuous domineering attacks, they can always deal super critical damage in battle.

As the user of the "Lucky Fruit", although Bakara herself does not have a strong aura and is not at all powerful, she can rely on the power of her fruit to allow her to deal super critical damage in battle, just like the group of people who truly stand at the top of the sea.

This attack method, taught by Boss Rhodes, was called by Bakara...

"Bashan!"

Accompanied by strands of black lightning, Bakara's fist collided violently with the fist of [Onmyoji] Laza, and the terrifying force directly hit Laza's body.

Bang! !

Lazar's entire arm exploded the moment of contact, and the powerful shock wave continued to blast a huge hole in the wall of the tavern.

"This woman!"

There was a deep silence in the tavern, and everyone stared blankly at Bakara who had crippled Laza with one punch.

"Captain Lazar!"

The younger brothers around him screamed in surprise and were about to support the captain, but suddenly they slipped and fell to the ground.

"Ouch!"

"My foot slipped!"

"My stomach suddenly hurts!"

Lazar's group of brothers were in trouble. They fell flat on their faces, twisted into a ball, and couldn't reach their captain.

'It's really ugly!'

Some pirates thought so in their hearts.

"Because he was so intimidated by the woman across from him, he didn't even bother to help his own captain."

"It turns out that I am already so strong."

Bakara ignored the pirates who became unfortunate because their "luck" was absorbed and fell to the ground in a ball. She also did not look at the so-called "Onmyoji" again, but looked down at her own palm.

All her previous battles were won by relying on her own 'luck' and various coincidences.

This was the first time for him to defeat the enemy with his own fists and win!
This feeling seems to be pretty good.

Moreover, it turns out that I have already possessed such power without realizing it.

Bakara clenched her fists and glanced around the tavern.

When her gaze swept over them, the tavern fell silent, without a single sound being heard.

"Now I can tell you, do you know anything about the information about Sky Island?"

Nia's voice was heard again from the bar in the tavern, but this time there was no laughter in the tavern.
