The ship's messengers signaled to each other with flags to confirm that the target was in front of them, and the ship's cannons were aimed at the Going Merry.
boom! boom! boom!
With several heavy cannon shots, dozens of shells flew toward the target. Just as they were about to succeed, a boy wearing a straw hat leaped into the air. He frantically inhaled a huge amount of air into his body, and his entire rubber body rapidly expanded, becoming larger and rounder.
The cannonballs that were originally meant to hit the ship instead struck the humanoid ball of flesh. The monster ignored the cannonball attacks and deflected all the cannonballs fired by Baroque Works back.
The cannonballs were returned to their rightful owners, causing damage to some ships. However, this minor damage was not enough to sink the ships. Since the monsters on the enemy ships could block the cannonballs head-on, they decided to attack from multiple directions simultaneously. There would always be a place where the Straw Hat Boy's body could not block them.
"Straw Hat Kid, you gave me a ride, tossing me over to where the other guy is."
Allen is standing next to Luffy. If he were to use his powers here, he would destroy the small boat they are standing on.
In the recent shelling, the enemy has sunk Ikaram's ship, and those who want to escape have boarded the Going Merry.
"I'll help you right now, rubber rubber rocket launcher!"
Luffy stretched his arms back, using the immense momentum to unleash tremendous power, sending Allen flying into the sky with a single blow. He had no strength left in this attack.
"Oops, you used too much force."
Before the people on the ship could blame Luffy, their eyes were all on Allen, who was flying in the sky, above the Baroque Works ship.
"I really miss that power."
Allen adjusted his posture in mid-air, changing to a standing position. This time, he wouldn't need to harm himself to transform.
A golden lightning bolt flashed across the sky, and flesh, skeleton, and nerves began to grow continuously from Allen's body, with the figure of a giant suddenly appearing above the ship.
The enormous body crashed down, instantly destroying the two ships directly below and killing everyone on board. A huge wave was created at the point of impact, and a giant with pointed ears, nearly twenty meters tall, appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Giants! Why are giants here?"
"How is it possible for a human to become a giant?"
"Fire! He's coming! My God, what kind of monster is that?"
The Baroque Studio's ships wanted to escape, but how could the giants let their prey go? The ships next to them were the first to suffer.
Since we weren't yet in the deep sea, the Attack Titan that Eren transformed into could stand still, with the seawater only reaching his chest. He could walk on the seabed, and his giant arms became his best weapons.
The shells exploded on the Titan's body, leaving black craters and causing some bleeding, but they did not affect the advancing Titan at all.
Eren smashed ship after ship with a single blow, then dragged one ship to crash into another. These ships became his personal toys, with fragments of their hulls circling around the Titan.
"Don't come any closer!"
"Get out of here quickly!"
Witnessing a giant running wildly through the sea, amidst cries of despair, it was too late to jump ship; the ship they depended on for survival was smashed to pieces by the enormous fist.
The nightmare finally came to an end when the last Baroque Studio ship was smashed into the sea.
In just a few minutes, only the Going Merry remained on the nearby sea; all the enemy ships had been sent into the ocean by Allen.
"Eren is so cool, he can actually transform into a Titan!"
Luffy jumped up on the deck. He came from a small place in the East Blue and this was the first time he had seen a living giant. He wanted to become a giant in the future because it would be so cool to fight with a giant's body!
The Attack Titan headed towards the Going Merry. Eren had his back to the Straw Hat crew earlier, but now, with the help of the moonlight, Nami and the others could see the Titan's appearance clearly.
With black hair and blue eyes, pointed ears resembling those of an elf, two rows of teeth protruding, and a body covered in strong muscles, his appearance has undergone a drastic change, vaguely resembling both the human Eren and a Titan.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
Princess Vivi and Icarus echoed the same sentiment: perhaps this giant could also defeat Crocodile…
Chapter 29 Small Garden
Giants are a very rare species on the sea. A single giant is already quite destructive, but giants from the land of giants often choose to become mercenaries. Every time they participate in a battle, they are a group of giants, and their combat power is far greater than the sum of its parts.
In other words, the shipbuilding technology of the Giant Kingdom is not good enough, so most giants will not choose to go to sea as pirates and will be recruited by other forces. The Navy used deception to recruit a group of giant vice admirals.
Luffy and his crew had just entered the Grand Line and were seeing giants of this height for the first time. He excitedly jumped onto the Attack Titan's shoulder, exclaiming, "That's so cool! I want to become a giant too!"
He has a deep love for Titans and will later develop Gear Third, but for now he can only use Gear Second, a fighting style that consumes his lifespan.
Jumping and bouncing on those muscular physiques, Luffy completely forgot his earlier wariness. He wanted to invite this guy, who could transform from a human into a giant, onto his ship. Life would be much more interesting with Eren on board.
"It's so hot! It's so hot!"
The Attack Titan emitted scorching steam from its body. Luffy jumped back to the Going Merry and saw the Titan's flesh and blood rapidly evaporating and disappearing, soon revealing a skeleton. Eren's figure appeared in everyone's sight.
Eren jumped out of the giant skull and landed on Luffy's ship. The giant skeleton lost control and crashed into the sea, but soon disappeared into the air along with the flesh and blood.
Eren's disheveled hair was completely disheveled, and several blood-red lines stretched from below his eyes to his face, evidence of his control over the Titans. He was almost completely exhausted, and he held onto the railing of the Going Merry to prevent himself from falling.
Seeing Eren's exhausted expression, Sanji quickly brought out a chair from the cabin. Eren took the chair and sat down, leaning back lazily to relieve his fatigue.
However, everyone was surrounding him, staring at Allen with curious expressions, but they didn't say anything or ask any questions, which made him quite embarrassed.
He offered his explanation: "It's a Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit, Titan Form. This is the Devil Fruit I ate. It allows me to temporarily transform into a giant to fight. However, it takes twice the effort to fight enemies in the sea, but I can last a long time fighting on land."
Everyone was quite satisfied with this explanation. There are all sorts of strange Devil Fruits on the sea, and turning a human into a giant's body isn't too outrageous.
"I ate the Paramecia-type Gum-Gum Fruit. You're the second Devil Fruit user on the ship. But turning into a giant is so cool!"
Luffy has become a complete fan of Eren and wants him to transform into a giant again so he can see it. However, Eren refuses his unreasonable request, as each transformation consumes a lot of stamina. Even as a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user, stamina is not unlimited.
Having defeated their opponent, the Straw Hat crew set off for the next island. With Icarus's compass, they headed to the second island on the Grand Line, which had a lovely name—Little Garden.
Most people rested in the cabins, while the Straw Hat crew took turns steering the ship, sailing on the sea following the direction of the compass. The journey was relatively peaceful, and they did not encounter any more pursuers.
Along the coast of Whiskey Peak, the rolling waves would sometimes deliver a few gifts, sometimes fragments of ships, sometimes human remains. This time, Baroque Works suffered a devastating blow, with over a dozen ships destroyed and a large number of its elite personnel lost.
"I'm too late, the naval battle is already over."
A dark-skinned beauty sat on a small turtle boat, holding a Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scoop), reporting the battle results to her boss. The entire Baroque Works team had been wiped out, but fortunately, Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentine, the two executives, were not on the boat. They had been defeated and knocked unconscious on the island and survived.
"Are you sure it was the Straw Hat crew who did it?"
The man on the other end of the phone was smoking a cigar and had a gold hook on one hand. This was Crocodile, the mastermind behind Baroque Works and a current member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
"According to the bounty hunters on the island, a young giant descended from the sky and single-handedly destroyed all the ships."
Nico Robin was still working at Baroque Works at this time. She willingly allowed herself to be used by Crocodile for the sake of the Poneglyphs in the Kingdom of Alabasta.
"Mr. 3 is waiting for them in the small garden. You help him take care of the Straw Hat crew. These small-time pirates aren't worth my personal attention."
Crocodile didn't believe what Skyfall said. It was utterly ridiculous that a fledgling pirate could defeat him so soon after entering the Grand Line. How could someone who didn't even know Haki possibly defeat him, a Logia-type Devil Fruit user?
Okay, I'll go there now.
Robin hung up the Den Den Mushi, and her vehicle, carrying Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentine, headed to Little Garden to pursue the Straw Hat Pirates.
Without encountering Robin's interference, the Straw Hat crew entered the island of Little Garden. However, the name puzzled the crew members. Seeing that the island was quite large, they wondered why it was named Little Garden.
Icarus on the ship explained to everyone, "Because there are two giants on this island who have been fighting here for over a hundred years, their enormous height makes this island look like a small garden."
"Wow, there are giants here too! I want to go ashore and see for myself!"
Luffy jumped from the Going Merry onto the island, and Sanji shouted behind him, "Bring back some game, we're running out of meat on the ship!"
"Received, Master Chef," Luffy said, disappearing into the jungle and vanishing from everyone's sight.
"What a reckless captain," Usopp thought. He had no intention of leaving the ship. He had just seen the monster on the island. There was a huge tiger on the island, and the thought of encountering it was terrifying.
"I'm going too. Everyone on the ship is going to be useless," Zoro said, jumping off the ship with his three swords.
"How about we have a contest to see who catches the biggest animal?"
Zoro agreed to Sanji's challenge without hesitation. He considered himself the second-in-command on the ship and wouldn't let the third-in-command surpass him.
In the midst of the pushing and shoving, Zoro and Sanji disappeared into the jungle together. Seeing the ship suddenly lose three main combatants, the crew members left watching the ship were speechless. Fortunately, Eren did not disembark.
“These three guys never think things through,” Nami said, standing on the deck, gazing at the beautiful scenery of the small garden.
“With Mr. Allen around, no one dares to touch the Going Merry,” Usopp said as he approached Allen. This powerful man gave him immense confidence; if anything went wrong, this tall guy would be there to protect him.
"A dragon! How could there be a Tyrannosaurus Rex here?" Princess Vivi exclaimed, attracting everyone's attention.
A massive Tyrannosaurus Rex charged toward the Going Merry, looking like it was starving...
Chapter 30 Mr3
"Why is there a dinosaur here? It's charging at us!" Usopp shakily took out his slingshot, wanting to protect the Going Merry from damage.
"This might be an ancient island."
Because the weather on the Grand Line is unpredictable, communication between islands is extremely inconvenient. Some island civilizations have developed rapidly in technology, while some backward islands have maintained their primitive ecology. There is no communication between the two, otherwise so many ancient Zoan-type Devil Fruits would not exist in this world.
Icarum extended a gun from the part of his curly hair and fired at the charging Tyrannosaurus Rex. Bang! Bang! Bang!
In terms of effect, it can be said that there was smoke but no damage. The Tyrannosaurus Rex suffered a minor injury, which only further enraged the beast, and it wanted to eat any living creature on it.
Just as Allen was about to make his move, a huge figure appeared behind the Tyrannosaurus Rex. A real giant cleaved down his massive battle axe, and the hunter and prey switched swiftly, the Tyrannosaurus Rex being cleaved in two.
The giant, wearing a helmet and with a full blond beard, dragged the corpse of a Tyrannosaurus Rex to the side of the Going Merry. He bent down and looked at the people on board. His huge face was bigger than a human's. "Do you have any wine on board?"
Nami and Usopp readily agreed to the giant's request and handed over all the drinks on the ship to him. The giant was very happy to have the drinks and invited everyone to eat roasted dinosaur meat.
During this time, he introduced himself to the Straw Hat crew as Brogy, the strongest warrior of the giant kingdom of Elbaf, who had been living on this small garden island for a hundred years.
The Straw Hat crew's barrel, barely the size of the giant's finger, was held between Brogy's fingers. The crew accepted the giant's invitation to go to his dwelling, ready to eat dinosaur meat.
At this moment, the volcano in Little Garden suddenly erupted. Brogy and another giant, Dorry, agreed to a duel. The two giants each picked up their weapons and fought directly on the island, completely disregarding the other people around them.
They fought for more than ten minutes without a clear winner. Finally, they slammed their shields against each other's faces, ending the battle. The two giants fell to the ground and laughed heartily. A century had passed since this battle, and the 73,406th duel ended in a draw.
