Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

And their pirate crew should still have several dozen people left behind. What should they do now?

More than half of Russ and his crew can use the "Shave" technique from the Six Powers, making it impossible for ordinary pirates to escape from them.

In less than half an hour of pursuit through the forest, more than a dozen people returned covered in blood.

"Russ, take a few men to the One-Eyed Pirates' ship to handle the aftermath."

With so many people scattering and fleeing, it's inevitable that some will slip through the net and go back to report. So I took a few others to the small town on the island to check things out and buy some supplies.

Now that the treasure on the island has been found, it's time for us to leave.

As Wood spoke, he picked up the wooden crate full of Baileys and had Robin lead the way to the town on Bird Island.

Similar to Wood's hometown, Red Leaf Island, the town on Bird Island is not particularly prosperous, but it is a town with a very harmonious folk culture.

Since the start of the Great Pirate Era, this island has been frequently visited by pirates, but the mayor is quite shrewd and always manages to use Berries to ensure the safety of the residents.

However, no one expected that the "One-Eyed Ha Pirates" would behave so badly this time. Because the town mayor refused their demand for a high "protection fee," the one-eyed dragon Bebarra killed the respected mayor in a fit of anger and then robbed the entire town.

When Wood and his companions arrived in the town, it already appeared somewhat desolate. As they walked down the street, Wood could sense the hidden presences emanating from all around them.

Clearly, although the One-Eyed Pirates massacred the town, there were some survivors.

At this moment, they only thought that the One-Eyed Pirates had returned, so they hid in unease.

Wood was helpless. They were far from the next island, and the supplies on the ship were almost gone. They urgently needed to replenish them.

Whether it's because of obtaining the power of the Heart of God, Reeves Rachel, Wood has become incredibly voracious. The combined appetite of more than ten people, including Russ, is probably less than his.

"It's that older sister from before, she's a good...person."

When the little eyes hiding behind the doors and windows saw Robin beside Wood and the others, they were about to say something when the adults next to them covered their mouths.

Upon hearing the commotion, Wood forced out what he considered a friendly smile and knocked on the door.

"Hello, we are pirates who have just arrived on this island... We urgently need some fresh water and food, which we can buy with Berries. Can you help us?"

"..."

To be honest, Wood believed this was the first time he had spoken in such a friendly tone, and he also thought that with his outstanding looks and "kind" demeanor, the other party would definitely believe that he was a good person.

However, the reality was that when Wood knocked on the door, he was met with an eerie silence from behind the door and window.

"I know someone's inside. If you don't answer me, don't blame me for turning on you!"

"I'm here to buy things, not some robber who won't pay! If you don't open the door, I'm going to just start smashing it down!"

As it turns out, sometimes violence is indeed more effective than reason.

"Squeak—!"

With a sickeningly loud sound, the tightly closed door in front of Wood was opened.

The person who opened the door was a young woman and a little boy who looked about seven or eight years old. The woman was holding a kitchen knife and was facing Wood with trepidation, as if this was her last means of resistance.

Seeing the scene before him, Wood's initial anger was immediately suppressed, and he tried his best to speak in a friendly tone.

To gain the woman's trust, Wood even pushed Robin, the most harmless one among them, in front of her.

The noise just now seemed to have come from the little boy next to the other party, and that little boy seemed to know Robin.

"Mom, when we were captured by the bad guys, it was this older sister who secretly let us escape."

When the little boy saw Robin, he excitedly tugged at his mother's clothes and said that the black-haired young lady in front of him was their savior.

Upon hearing her son's words, the young woman glanced at Wood and his men again. Seeing that they were indeed not like the fierce pirates from before, she slowly lowered her knife and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chapter 137 The Inactive Branch Navy

"You shouldn't have come to this island at this time. There are vicious pirates on the island now. Those pirates have no humanity at all. Our town has just been plundered."

If you want fresh water and food, the town still has plenty left, but I advise you to leave the island as soon as possible.

Because Robin was the savior of her children, she obviously gained a lot of goodwill from the woman. When she learned that Wood and his family had just arrived on the island, she kindly told them to leave as soon as possible.

"Since pirates are attacking the town, why don't you ask the Navy for help?"

There should be a naval branch nearby, right? So many days have passed; even if the navy were scared, they should be able to get here by now, right?

Because they were worried about being mistaken for marines and causing a misunderstanding, Wood and the others changed their clothes before arriving in the town.

Since naval officers of the rank of colonel have regained the right to wear civilian clothes, Wood simply removed the Justice Cloak from his back, while Russ and the others changed into the clothes of the One-Eyed Pirates.

"Heh, the Navy? They wouldn't dare mess with the 'One-Eyed Pirates.' Back when the town mayor was still there, they provided supplies to the pirates who came to the island."

Furthermore, because the mayor's son was a captain in the branch, Asuka Island had remained peaceful all along.

Hearing what the woman said, Wood couldn't help but admire the old mayor. If the old mayor hadn't been an old man with little fighting ability, he would have been quite a figure.

On one hand, he used his son's connections in the Navy to intimidate the other side, and on the other hand, he sensibly handed over the so-called "protection money." With a stick and a date, as long as the pirates who came to the island were not too stubborn, they would generally choose to accept the goodwill.

However, little did they know that the one-eyed pirate crew that came to the island this time were unusually ruthless. Not only did they not care about the mayor's captain son, they even demanded a huge sum of money.

The mayor had barely tried to bargain when he killed the other party with a single stab.

After the town mayor died, they naturally sought help from the local naval branch, but unfortunately, the naval captain stationed there was a coward.

After learning that the attackers of the town were the ruthless "One-Eyed Bebar" they placed the mayor's captain son under house arrest and selectively pretended he was blind.

"Now that the old mayor is dead, this town is no longer safe. If there were no ships to go out to sea, we would have left long ago."

Although the ocean occupies a large area of ​​the world, most people spend their entire lives living on a single island.

It's not that they don't want to see the world, but that the outside world is too dangerous.

A ship that can sail the seas is not cheap to build; not everyone can get one for free like Luffy.

Moreover, going to sea requires extensive nautical knowledge and a certain level of personal ability, because there are too many unstable factors on the high seas.

Due to factors such as unpredictable weather, pirates, and sea kings, many ordinary people will not choose to go to sea unless absolutely necessary.

"If you wanted to leave this island because of the 'One-Eyed Pirates,' I think that's no longer necessary."

Because whether it's that guy called One-Eyed Bebarra, or the rest of the pirate crew, we've already taken them all down.

When she heard what Wood said, the woman's first thought was one of great joy, but she quickly realized that it was simply impossible.

The One-Eyed Pirates is a large pirate crew of 500 people. Even the local naval branch can't do anything to them. Wood looks so young, and what can just a few of them do?

"I really didn't lie to you. If you insist on leaving this island, we can give you our original ship."

Anyway, the One-Eyed Pirates' ship is now ours. As for our original ship, we can exchange it for some supplies.

Seeing that Wood's expression didn't seem like he was joking, and knowing that their commotion had already attracted the attention of the rest of the town, they realized that Wood's expression was serious.

Upon hearing that the "One-Eyed Pirates" had been wiped out, many of the town's residents who had been hiding gathered around excitedly.

The townspeople who saw the survivors remained skeptical of this bombshell news. To gain their trust more quickly, Wood had no choice but to pull out a small Den Den Mushi from his pocket.

"Bulu Bulu..."

The small blue Den Den Mushi, as if it had just woken up, quickly transformed into Russ's facial features in Wood's hands.

Before Wood and the others had to wait long, Ruth's rather deep voice came from the Den Den Mushi.

"Russ, how's the situation over there?"

"Just as the captain predicted, some of the pirates managed to escape to the pirate ship, but we have caught them all."

"Including those who escaped earlier and those who remained on the pirate ship, there were a total of forty or fifty people. Now we've captured them all. What does the captain plan to do?"

Russ originally intended to kill all of these scum, but considering that they were now pirates with bounties on their heads by the Navy, and that Wood was also interested in establishing a pirate crew and might have other plans for these people, he didn't go for the kill directly.

"Bring all those people to the town on the island, and also bring over that corpse named Bebart."

If you don't know the way, I can send someone to show you. Remember to leave one or two people there to watch the boat.

Several tens of minutes later, when Russ led dozens of pirates, who were tied up, into the town, all the residents of Asuka Island were stunned.

And in addition to their surprise, they were overjoyed, because the young man in front of them had not lied to them; the "One-Eyed Pirates" had indeed been wiped out by the other party.

Even when the unique dragon Bebar's corpse was thrown in front of the townspeople, they felt no fear, but rather a sense of satisfaction at having avenged their great grudge.

The dozens of one-eyed pirates who were tied up didn't fare any better; many of the town's surviving residents picked up stones and threw them at the pirates.

To avoid being caught in the crossfire, Russ and his crew wisely left the pirates' location immediately.

For the people of Bird Island, the One-Eyed Pirates were mortal enemies, after all, it was these people who took away their home and the lives of their loved ones.

Although they didn't know the origins of Wood and his crew, as long as they destroyed the "One-Eyed Pirates," Wood would be a true benefactor to the entire Asuka Island.

Upon learning that their benefactors needed fresh water and food, every household spontaneously offered them things, and no matter how Wood tried to refuse, the residents were unwilling to accept their Baileys.

Chapter 138 The Island Protected by the Wood Pirates

According to the island's residents, Wood is the benefactor of the entire Bird Island. If they were to ask their benefactor for money for even this little thing, it would be an outrage against heaven and earth!

Because of the previous massacre by the "One-Eyed Pirates", the number of survivors in the town is actually less than 30% of what it used to be.

Moreover, most of them were women and children whom Robin had secretly let go before.

Although the town still has a lot of resources for daily life, without young and able-bodied men, it will definitely take a long time for the town to recover.

In other words, the only remaining supplies in the town are the hope for the survival of its inhabitants.
