Who made him the Pirate King?.

Chapter 170: The Soul King's Surrender! (First update, please subscribe!)
[Silver Trophy: Absalom]

[Trophy Star: ★★★]

The clay earth was covered with layers of white waves, like the ocean.

Just a small white wave crashing down.

Absalom, the user of the [Transparent Fruit] who had just tried to rescue Gekko Moriah, fell to the ground and could not get up again.

Storm just glanced at the silver trophy and put it away.

For him now, the three-star trophy can only be used to fill his inventory.

The user of the ability loses consciousness and naturally cannot maintain the ability any longer.

The invisibility ability attached to the [Transparent Fruit] is eliminated, and a monster with a human body and a lion face appears next to Gekko Moriah.

He was Absalom, one of the "three weirdos" of the Terror Bark.

Even Storm had to admit it.

Gekko Moriah treats his "partners" very well.

At the same time, the "three monsters" under his command - Perona, Absalom and Hobguk - are also very loyal to Gekko Moriah.

Both sides are examples of people who are willing to sacrifice their own lives to save the other.

Storm remembers it clearly.

After the end of the War of Marineford, Gekko Moriah should have been secretly executed by the World Government and the Marine Headquarters.

It was thanks to the cooperation of Absalom and Hogback that they were able to rescue the seriously injured Gekko Moriah from Donquixote Doflamingo.

Later, Gekko Moriah also broke into the Four Emperors' headquarters, Beehive Island, alone for Absalom, who was captured by the Blackbeard Pirates, but unfortunately he was killed...

But later Perona also rushed to Beehive Island and rescued the imprisoned Gekko Moriah...

This group of people on the horror barque are actually quite interesting.

At least in terms of "human touch".

Gekko Moriah’s pirate group can be said to be fully staffed!

Storm temporarily suppressed his distracting thoughts and manipulated the clay around him. Strips of clay were compressed and metamorphosed into more solid and firm porcelain clay. The clay chains tightly bound Moonlight Moriah and Absalom.

Let’s lock these two people up for the time being!

“Yohoho! It’s the invisible man!”

Brook looked at Absalom who suddenly appeared and let out a strange laugh.

"I really didn't see him just now...even though I don't have eyes!"

"This Lion Head is a senior cadre under Moonlight Moria."

Dong Li, who was standing by, looked at the unconscious Absalom and explained in a deep voice.

"He is a 'transparent man' who ate the [Transparent Fruit]. If he hadn't mastered [Observation Haki], he would be a very difficult opponent."

A completely invisible enemy is indeed very tricky.

But it would be better if Dongli didn't explain.

As soon as he explained, Storm couldn't help but give him a strange look.

"Donli, Broki, you two were the captains of the Giant Pirates a hundred years ago."

Storm asked in confusion as he looked at the two tall, mighty and domineering giants.

"With your strength, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with Moonlight Moria, right?"

Hearing Storm's question, Brockie and Donley looked at each other.

“Crack, crack, crack!”

"Aa ...

The two giants laughed foolishly at the same time, and it seemed that they were unwilling to talk.

In the end, it was Oyimo, who looked more honest, who answered.

"Lord Storm, we didn't actually fight with Gekko Moriah before. We were completely defeated by that girl..."

Upon hearing this, Cassie on the side nodded sympathetically. It was obvious that he was very impressed by the ability of that "girl".

"Girl? The ghost princess from before?"

Storm twitched the corner of his mouth, probably understanding what was going on.

"As soon as you boarded the Terror Bark, you were defeated by the 'Negative Ghost'?"

The four giants immediately nodded in shame.

Storm held his forehead helplessly.

Perona's [Ghost Fruit] is indeed hard to guard against.

This is a very powerful "first sight kill" ability.

Except in very rare special cases.

When a normal person encounters Perona's "negative ghost", they will instantly lose their will to fight and allow themselves to be dealt with by the other party.

Several giants, including the red demon Broki and the blue demon Touri, were also unable to escape when they encountered the oversized "negative ghost".

This can be seen from the fact that several giants were tortured by Perona and had to kneel on the ground, repenting and apologizing.

[Haki] can indeed resist the power of devil fruits.

But people also have to be given the opportunity to actively use [Heroic Power]!

Once someone is hit by Perona's "negative ghost", they will immediately become completely hopeless.

If you don't commit suicide, it's considered a success.

Do you still expect them to have enough willpower to use [Haki]?
[Arrogant] is not a passive skill...

"Let's borrow Moonlight Moria's lair first to clean up and rest!"

Storm looked at the four giants and a skeleton and waved to them.

"I suppose you are hungry now?"

Storm's words had just fallen.

The stomachs of the four giants cooperated very well and made a "gurgling" sound.

Brooke, who was standing by, touched his spine, fully exerting his talent as a musician, and used a technique called "ventriloquism".

"Gurgle - even though I don't have a stomach, my stomach is hungry! Yo ho ho!" Brooke laughed for a while, and then suddenly fell silent.

He looked at Storm and knelt on one knee.

"Mr. Vongola, does your pirate group still need musicians?"

Brooke had been wandering alone in the Devil's Triangle for too long.

Every time he woke up in the middle of the night, he fantasized about being able to leave this foggy sea.

It’s a pity that things don’t always go as planned.

Brook wandered in the Devil's Triangle for decades.

It wasn't until last year that he encountered the Terror Bark and met a "creature" that could communicate and chat with him.

But it's a pity.

On the Thriller Bark, Brook did not meet any companions, but only met enemies, and his shadow was directly taken away by the enemy.

Now that Brook has got his shadow back, he naturally wants to leave the Thriller Bark and the Devil's Triangle.

Storm is Brook's salvation!
In the past, Brook actively rejected Storm's recruitment because he thought he would only be a burden to Storm at that time.

Now Brook has actively applied to join Storm's team. It would be nice to be a musician for Lord White Dragon!
"Of course, you're welcome to join us, Brooke."

Storm smiled and nodded to Brooke.

There are dedicated combatants for the battle.

Others include archaeologists, navigators, etc.

The Storm Pirates have a diverse range of talent, and each member has their own duties, so there's nothing wrong with that.

As Storm's mind moved, the clay was released and formed into two lifelike nine-tailed foxes.

The giants went on their own.

Storm and Brook sat on two nine-tailed foxes and headed towards Gekko Moriah's castle.

As for the two unconscious losers, Gekko Moriah and Absalom...

He was dragged behind by the nine-tailed fox and taken to the "Mast Castle" that towered into the clouds.

"Brook, I think you might need this good news."

Storm pondered for a moment, then revealed this to Brook on another nine-tailed fox.

"At the entrance to the Grand Line, below the Upside-Down Mountain and the Twin Gorges, there is an island whale named 'Labu'.

"It's still there, waiting for your return."

Brook was startled and wanted to ask a few more questions, but Storm no longer looked at him.

"Rabu..."

The Terror Barque, the entrance to the Mast Castle.

When Storm and his party arrived here.

At this time, there were already two figures standing here.

One of them was the ghost princess Perona, who she had just met.

The other person, with a round figure, pointed ears and nose, was the last "weirdo" - Hogback.

See Storm and his group arrive.

Hogbak immediately stepped forward, bowed and greeted him in a very humble manner.

"Master White Dragon! The Thriller Bark welcomes you!"

While saluting, Hogback tugged at the sleeve of Perona next to him.

The ghost princess nodded reluctantly, barely expressing her welcome.

The sudden arrival of the white dragon disrupted the original order of the terrifying three-masted sailing ship.

Gekko Moriah was defeated.

Absalom, who went to rescue them, was also directly killed by the white dragon.

Hogback originally wanted to take Perona with him and leave the Thriller Bark.

But when he saw the blue-eyed white dragon in the sky, the idea of ​​leaving was instantly dispelled.

Facing a giant white dragon that can fly in the sky.

Even if Hogback swung his oars until smoke came out, he couldn't be faster than the opponent's wings!
You can't fight, you can't escape.

Hogbak could only adopt the worst strategy - delaying the war.

First slow down Bailong and his group, and then look for an opportunity to rescue Lord Gekko Moriah.

As long as Moonlight Moriah is still here, then at least we can escape from the White Dragon's hands...right?
Two red lights flashed in Storm's eyes.

In daily life, he rarely takes the initiative to use his "Observation Haki" to read people's minds.

Using your mind-reading ability at will is just asking for trouble.

But when it comes to his enemies, Storm has never been reluctant to use "mind reading"!
Hobak's inner thoughts were as clear to Storm as a candle in the dark night.

Do you want to rescue Moonlight Moria?

What a loyal subordinate...

Hogbak took a few steps forward without waiting for Storm's response.

He took out a famous sword that exuded an ancient aura from behind.

"Master Bailong! This is a small token of our gratitude for our previous misconduct. Please accept it."

Hogbak glanced at the [Wine Iron Ore Sabre] on Storm's waist, and then held up the famous sword in his hands with both hands.

"This is the Black Sword, Autumn Water, one of the twenty-one great swords!"
