I'm a big pirate, and you said I just went out to sea?

Chapter 163 Samurai, Times Have Changed!

Chapter 163 Samurai, Times Have Changed!
Mongols indeed did not have much ambition towards Wano Country.

But didn't he say that too?
Let nature take its course!

The opportunity is right in front of them; if Monge doesn't seize it...

That would be a disservice to his identity as a pirate.

"Young lady, I'm going to teach you a lesson now: when you're out and about, don't easily trust others, especially handsome men like me!"

"Pfft~"

As soon as Monger said that, Tenzuki couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Although she was unaware of Munger's plans.

But she was certain that Munger was playing a trick on Shimotsuki Nobuko.

If Monger really makes a move.

Let alone the people in front of us, even if all the samurai of Wano Country were together...

I'm afraid they're no match for Monger either.

But Shimotsuki Shinko was clearly unaware of this.

Seeing Monger's crew rushing towards their Shimotsuki clan's samurai, Shimotsuki Shizuko was somewhat worried, but her trust in her clansmen still made her stubbornly glare at Monger.

"Big bad guy, despicable, shameless, bastard pirate, big liar"

"No matter what tricks or schemes you use."

"Father will definitely defeat you!"

At this moment, Lipri and his group began to fight against Shimotsuki Fuya and his group.

"Foreign pirates?"

Seeing Shimotsuki Shinko and Shimotsuki Kozaburo captured, Shimotsuki Fuya's expression turned solemn. He noticed Munger beside Shimotsuki Shinko and Shimotsuki Kozaburo and sensed an unfathomable aura emanating from him.

But before facing Monger, he first had to deal with Lipri and the others.

And Lipriy's first move was—

"Shrink!"

After a Devil Fruit awakens, it gains the ability to assimilate its environment.

Lipriy took a step forward.

The ground beneath their feet seemed to have vanished suddenly.

Everyone suddenly lost their footing and plummeted.

"Ahhh!"

"what happened!?"

Why did we suddenly fall?!

"."

Lipri shrank the area by a hundred meters in one go, so that to the samurai of Wano Country, it seemed as if they were standing on a bottomless abyss.

"Sorcery! This must be sorcery!"

Some warriors shouted, but that did not change their falling situation.

It only takes a few seconds.

They would fall from a height of 100 meters.

Although the samurai were strong enough not to be killed by the fall.

But you'll definitely get hurt.

With nowhere to gain leverage in mid-air and lacking the flying technique of Moonwalk, even Shimotsuki Kaze could only endure the impact of this fall.

however.

Lipriy's methods didn't stop there.

The land beneath the warriors' feet had shrunk, not disappeared.

When they fall to a certain height.

Lipriy spoke again.

"recover!"

Bang bang bang!
A series of impacts were heard, and some warriors who had already adjusted their landing posture were caught off guard and hit the ground by the sudden and amplified impacts.

Those with stronger abilities can react in time.

Those who were weaker were simply knocked unconscious by the impact.

Shimotsuki Kazeya brought dozens of samurai with him this time.

Lipriy's move easily solved half of the problem.

Even though Shimotsuki Fuya is stronger than Liprit, he is still stronger.

However, they were helpless against Lipri's awakened Devil Fruit power.

If they continue to make moves.

Lipri could easily take care of those weak samurai.

However, this would not meet Monger's expectations.

"Hehe, we have to give the newcomers some opportunities to practice!"

Unconsciously.

Lipriy also displayed the demeanor of an old sailor.

"Witch, I, Frost Moon Wind, will not allow you to act recklessly!"

The weathered-looking Frosty Moon Wind also let out a low shout.

"Flash!"

An extremely swift slash, so fast that even Monger was somewhat surprised, suddenly appeared in front of Lip, as if to split her in two.

The strength that Lipri has shown no longer allows Shimotsuki Kaze to hold back.

"So fast!"

Even with her Observation Haki, Lipriy almost didn't react to Shimotsuki Kazeya's slash.

Although it's not the kind of wide-range slash that can easily cover thousands of meters, the extremely swift blade wind is enough to easily cut through iron and steel.

The prerequisite is that you can hit the target!
"Mini and even smaller!"

Lipri's current size is one-tenth of her original size, and after Shimotsuki Kazeya unleashed his slash.

Lipriy used her powers once again.

Shrink by a thousand times!
At this moment, Lipriy shrank to the size of a thumb, and Shimotsuki Kaze's extremely swift slash naturally missed its target and landed in empty space.

"What!?"

Having always stayed in the closed-off Wano Country, Shimotsuki Kaze had never interacted with outsiders and had no idea what a Devil Fruit was.

After landing, Liprit used the Six Powers technique, something she hadn't done in a long time.

"shave!"

The distance between Lipri and Shimotsuki Fuuya instantly closed.

"Miniature - Partial Restoration!"

Even though they were still nearly ten meters apart, Shimotsuki Kaze was still staring at the shrunken Lipri, preparing to unleash his slash once more.

They then noticed that Liprit's fist suddenly enlarged, covered in Armament Haki.

"Giant's Spear!"

boom!
Shimotsuki Kazeya, who only had time to raise his sword to defend himself, was blasted hundreds of meters away.

"Father!"

Shimotsuki Zhenzi cried out in sorrow, her eyes reddening at the sight.

"Your father is actually stronger than Lipley."

Standing beside Shimotsuki, Mung said in a calm tone, "But because they don't understand the outside world and haven't seen Lipri's abilities, they were able to fall into a disadvantage so easily."

A punch from a giant is not easy to catch.

Unless someone like Monger is both a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user and a master of physical combat, even an Admiral-level powerhouse would be no match for him.

Even taking a punch from Liprit head-on would result in injury.

Upon hearing Monger's words, Shimotsuki Shinko glared angrily at him.

She had initially thought Monger was a good person.

Now it seems he was a complete bastard, a big bad guy!

"Don't worry, your father won't fall down so easily."

Monger tried to comfort Shimotsuki Nobuko, but Shimotsuki Nobuko found this comfort utterly sarcastic.

And when Lipriy faced Shimotsuki Fuya.

The other members of the White Wolf Pirates also began to fight the samurai.

The Shimotsuki family truly lives up to its reputation as one of the four great families of Wano Country.

The Kozuki family is small in number, and the Kurozumi family has already been exiled by the Kozuki family.

The most powerful forces in Wano Country right now are the four great families that serve the Kozuki family. Even after the turmoil caused by the Kurozumi family, they still have several skilled fighters under their command.

Moreover, the people that Frost Moon Wind brought were not all of them.

After all, he only wanted to bring Shimotsuki Shinko, who had "run away from her marriage," back home, not to start a war with anyone, so why would he send out all the samurai of his family?

But at this moment, Shuangyuefeng also regretted it.

Not only did he feel powerless when facing Lipri, but the other samurai around him also struggled to fight the members of the White Wolf Pirates.

Lipriy took the initiative.

Newgate was the second to confront the samurai of Wano Country. Facing these enemies wielding swords and knives, Newgate unleashed a shockwave right in their faces.

A milky white halo gathered in Newgate's hand.

Seeing the samurai charging towards him, Newgate slammed his weapon from a distance.

moment.

The air in front of Newgate cracked like a mirror.

The breaking of the air, in turn, affected the surrounding area.

Even though Newgate has only just begun to master the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, which is hailed as the pinnacle of Paramecia-type Devil Fruits in later generations, this punch still caused terrifying consequences.

The river, frozen by Monge, shattered under the tremors.

The lake water, which had been blocked for so long, suddenly transformed into a ferocious beast, surging towards the White Wolf Pirates and the samurai.

Only then did the samurai realize what was happening.

Why is there a glacier here?

"Isn't it summer now?"

"The lake water! The lake water is rushing towards us!"

"."

However, while the surging lake water posed a slight threat to the samurai, the worst that could happen was being swept away to the borders of Wano Country. Both Ripley and Newgate were Devil Fruit users.

Not just seawater, but even freshwater, as long as it comes into contact with a certain amount.

They will still become weak.

"Newgate, you idiot!"

Lipriy cursed and used Moonwalk to propel herself into the sky.

The same goes for Newgate.

But apart from those two, the others weren't so lucky.

Especially Lingling.

Although her strength ranks among the top in the White Wolf Pirates, she has not yet fully mastered the Six Powers despite being a member of the crew for so long.

Especially the moonwalk.

Lingling's special physique seemed to be an obstacle to her ascent.

Each time it bounces once in mid-air.

They will all fall down.

So much so that Lingling later said in a fit of pique that she never wanted to practice again.

result.

Of course, it ended with Monger baking her a cake to comfort her.

However, it doesn't matter if you can't use Moonwalk.

Since it's different from the original timeline, Linlin, who joined the White Wolf Pirates, didn't become a Devil Fruit user, so naturally she wasn't afraid of the river.

In addition, he is over six meters tall.

The surging river water pounded against Lingling's body, but it couldn't budge her at all.

Lingling turned around and punched him.

He then struck a samurai who could barely keep his balance in the river, causing his tiger's mouth to split open.

monster!

This was what the samurai was thinking after he faced off against Lingling.

I originally saw that Lingling was a child.

The samurai still harbored the idea of showing mercy.

It turned out that Lingling was not only incredibly strong, but her body was also as hard as steel—no, Lingling's body was much harder than steel.

Samurai are, after all, swordsmen who can cut through iron.

As a result, he couldn't even break down Lingling's defenses.

The three veteran members of the White Wolf Pirates displayed their prowess.

In contrast.

The new crew members looked rather disheveled.

The samurai weren't particularly strong, but after Liprit's selection process, those who were still standing were at least capable of cutting through iron.

Stussy struggled even in one-on-one situations.

She turned pale when she saw the river rushing towards her.

Fortunately, there was only one doctor on the ship.

Monger was relatively lenient; with a flick of his wrist, he created a high ice wall around Stussy and the warrior fighting him, blocking the surging river.

Stussy was overjoyed at the sight.

'I knew the old man wouldn't abandon me!'

However, in her distraction, she was almost struck by the samurai opposite her.

"Hey, when faced with such a beauty like me, don't you know how to be gentle and considerate?"

Stussy shouted in dissatisfaction.

"When dealing with evil and unorthodox methods, there is no need to show mercy!"

"The samurai opposite Stusi said in a low voice."

"And I am a woman too!"

"Eh?"

Stussy was speechless.

Although the samurai in front of him had a rather androgynous appearance, his muscular chest seemed to confirm it.

Stussy, as a doctor, has Munger's support.

But others weren't so lucky.

Seeing the seawater rushing towards him, Shiki, as a Devil Fruit user, dared not stay on the ground and used Moonwalk to step into the air.

The same applies to cranes.

Although Tsuru is not a power user, and is an excellent swimmer.

However, she is not a fish-man. Apart from fish-men, even if an ordinary person is a good swimmer, their fighting ability in the water will be reduced.

She was just confused.

Didn't Mongo say he had no interest in Wano Country? Then why is he ordering them to attack the samurai now?

However, facing the shrewd swordsman, Tsuru could only barely keep up. She dared not hold back, because she knew that with Monger's keen eye, if she did, it would definitely arouse his suspicion.

Moreover, her strength did not allow her to hold back when facing samurai.

Zefa was the most unlucky one.

Although he is not a Devil Fruit user, he has not learned Moonwalk either.

In addition, Monger did not come to the rescue.

So when the river surged in, Zefa was the first to be swept dozens of meters away, and it took him a lot of effort to regain his footing.

A samurai then swung his sword down at his head.

They showed no mercy whatsoever.

However, this is exactly the effect Monger wanted.

What's the point of ordinary sparring? What's important is the tempering and training between life and death.

Based on Munger's current Observation Haki intensity.

If any truly deadly danger were to occur, he could stop it immediately.

This is not a drill, but a real battle!

Even when Stussy and Tsuru, the two female crew members, were wounded by the samurai, Monger did not offer any assistance.

How can one grow without shedding blood?

His crew must be comrades who can fight alongside him, not decorative vases kept at home. If they are afraid of fighting, why did they board this ship?
"Monger, me too!"

"Go!"

Tianyue was indeed somewhat inconvenient to move around, but since she had taken the initiative to ask, Mengge naturally wouldn't refuse, since he would just watch from the sidelines.

The overall situation of the battle was relatively evenly matched.

While Rocks was away, Newgate took on the role of "parent" without being asked.

Every time I see someone else in danger.

He was always the first to step forward to help, even if it meant putting himself in danger.

Moreover, the overall situation is evenly matched.

But none of the members of the White Wolf Pirates had any real worries.

Because Munger was right behind him.

No matter how strong the samurai are, isn't there always Monger to back them up?

and so.

Although it was a real battle, the combat effect was similar to a true life-or-death struggle.

There is still a gap.

In some ways, Rocks was right.

A captain who is too strong can actually stifle the crew's motivation to grow.

The premise is that a bottleneck is encountered.

At least half of his crew members are top-tier talent monsters.

Even those with slightly less talent won't be too bad.

At least until they reach a combat power of 200 million.

They won't encounter too many bottlenecks.

Compared to the White Wolf Pirates' ease and composure, the samurai were getting increasingly anxious as the fight progressed, especially Shimotsuki Fuya, who was from a family.

He could easily see that Monger was the strongest among these pirates.

But he couldn't even beat Lipley.

Although Shimotsuki Kaze gradually shifted from a disadvantageous position to an even one after adapting to Lipri's fighting style, she now has a slight advantage.

However, these slight advantages are of little significance.

Are all the pirates outside this strong?
Looking at the unfathomable Munger, and then at his captured daughter.

Frosty Moon Wind also gritted his teeth.

A distress signal was sent.

Even if it's humiliating, it doesn't matter. If things continue like this, the Frostmoki family will be completely wiped out.

And then we saw the dazzling fireworks in the sky.

A slight smile curved the corners of Monger's lips.

That's right, that's it.

He went to fight one by one the samurai daimyo of Wano Country.

What a hassle.

If you're going to come, come along!

Wano Country doesn't want to open its borders, does it?
