One Piece: Starting with God Valley, intercepting the Dark-Dark Fruit

Jebt said to Tiger,

"I'm really sorry, the rooms on the ship are in short supply, so I can only let you stay downstairs for the time being. But don't worry, the space downstairs is also very spacious, it's just a bit dark."

Tiger waved his hand and said,

"It's alright, having a place to stay is good enough."

Jebt smiled slightly and then walked down first, with Tiger following closely behind.

However, once they reached the bottom, a strong smell of blood hit them. Tiger looked closely and saw iron cages everywhere, with large amounts of dried blood inside.

Seeing this, Tiger tensed instantly. He stared at Jebt in front of him and said in a deep voice,

"Jabbit, where exactly is this place?"

"hehe......"

With his back to Tiger, Jebt let out a chilling laugh. He slowly turned around and grinned maliciously.

"Of course, this is the room prepared for a stinky fish like you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jebt lunged forward and punched Tiger in the stomach.

Tiger reacted immediately and put one hand to protect his abdomen, but he couldn't withstand it at all. His body was blasted backward and he fell on the stairs.

Tiger struggled to his feet and said incredulously,

"How is this possible? My power..."

Jebt laughed triumphantly, throwing his head back.

"Fool! Are you satisfied with the meal I prepared?"

Tiger gritted his teeth and said,

"You are so despicable!"

Jebt shrugged and said,

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Chapter 182 Shipwreck

Jebt walked towards Tiger step by step with a wicked grin on his face, and said,

"Don't worry, you're my precious cargo. I won't poison you; I'll just leave you temporarily weak."

Tiger gritted his teeth, raised his fist, and said,

"I won't let you succeed!"

Fishmen have extremely high physical limits, let alone Tiger, who is one of the best among fishmen.

Given the amount of toxins he ingested, an ordinary person would be lucky to even maintain some consciousness, let alone stand up.

Jebt was a little surprised to see that Tiger still had the strength to put on a fighting stance, but he said with delight,

"That's amazing! You're the strongest merman I've ever seen! We're really going to strike it rich this time!"

His words only fueled Tiger's rage. He glared at Jebt, his palm outstretched, and a large drop of water slowly dripped down.

Then, he swung the water droplet at Jebt and roared,

"Splash the water!"

Water droplets shot out like steel cannonballs. Jebt narrowly dodged to the side, and the water droplets slammed into the ship's wall behind him, blasting a terrifying hole.

Jebt's pupils contracted in shock at the power, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

He regretted that he shouldn't have been so impulsive. He underestimated Tiger's physical strength, thinking that the poison would be enough to make Tiger too weak to fight back in such a short time. But he never expected that Tiger could still deliver such a powerful blow.

However, Tiger was not as energetic as Jebt had imagined. Just that splash had left him panting heavily, and sweat was pouring down his forehead.

Jebt narrowed his eyes slightly, cracked his fist, and whispered,

"Looks like I'll have to teach you a lesson."

hum!

His fists turned black in the blink of an eye. Seeing this, Tiger's heart sank. Having traveled frequently, he had also learned Haki and was one of the very few fishmen who had mastered it. Naturally, he knew the power of Haki.

It should be noted that even those humans with relatively weak bodies can instantly close the physical gap with fish-men if they can use Haki. In fact, some can even achieve absolute suppression of fish-men.

Despite his anxiety, Tiger tried to unleash his Armament Haki to fight back. However, no matter how hard he tried, his body felt incredibly heavy, as if weighed down by lead, and he couldn't control it at all.

The reason is simple: at this moment, his physical condition is extremely poor, and he is simply unable to support the use of Armament Haki.

Left with no other choice, Tiger gritted his teeth and struggled to raise his fists to protect his chest, preparing to block Jebt's next attack.

Jebt grinned maliciously as he approached.

boom!

With a deafening roar, Tiger shot up from below like a cannonball, crashing into the door and shattering it to pieces, much to the astonishment of Raki and the others above.

With a flurry of sawdust flying everywhere, Tiger continued to slide along the outside deck for several meters before finally coming to a stop.

Jebt followed from below, a clear fist mark on his chest from Tiger's "Shark's Fury".

His face was ashen as he roared at Raki and the others.

"What are you standing there for! Grab this stinky fish! Damn it! Luckily this fish is poisoned, otherwise we really wouldn't be able to handle it!"

Upon hearing the order, Lucky and his henchmen snapped out of their daze and hurriedly gathered around Tiger, who was lying on the ground.

However, as soon as they approached, Tiger stood up shakily again, startling the henchmen so much that they stopped instantly, and for a moment no one dared to move forward.

Tiger was panting heavily, and bright red blood was gushing out of the hideous wound on his forehead, quickly blurring his vision.

A film of water secreted from his palms. He rubbed his face vigorously, which cleared his vision somewhat.

The minions all swallowed hard; it was the first time they had ever seen such a ruthless murloc.

Tiger glanced at the group of henchmen in front of him, spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, then turned around abruptly and stumbled toward the ship's side.

Jebt remained unfazed when he saw Tiger trying to escape. He glanced at Raki and said,

“That stinky fish is trying to escape, Raki, go and make him behave. He’s no longer capable of resisting.”

Upon hearing this, Raj let out a lewd laugh, then he got down on all fours and ran quickly toward Tiger.

As he ran, a large black and white tail suddenly emerged from his rear end, and his body was quickly covered with a thick layer of black fur. His already pointed face and monkey-like features became even more prominent, and he even grew a few black whiskers, making him look extremely lewd.

He is actually a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user—the Weasel-Weasel Fruit, Skunk Form.

When the fully transformed Raki was halfway through his charge, he suddenly kicked off with all four limbs, turned around in mid-air, and then stuck his butt out in front of Tiger.

With a series of popping sounds, spiraling, foul-smelling, yellowish-brown gas gushed from Laki's rear end, enveloping Tiger as he ran.

Tiger's breathing was already rapid, and he inhaled a lot of it immediately. The strong, fermenting stench almost made him faint. He could no longer hold on and collapsed onto the edge of the ship's gunwale with a thud.

Gazing at the azure sea below, a deep sense of despair appeared in Tiger's eyes.

He hadn't expected that one of Jebt's subordinates would be a Devil Fruit user.

Raki landed behind Tiger, stretched out his paw and pressed it on Tiger's head, then sniffed it in a lewd manner.

Tiger smelled Raki's foul breath and wanted nothing more than to crush the guy's head, but he couldn't muster any strength at all.

Raki chuckled and was about to call the people behind him to come up and tie Tiger up when he heard a roaring sound.

He couldn't help but look up and saw a stylish speedboat speeding towards him at an extremely high speed on the sea.

A tall man lay in the speedboat, his hands behind his head, seemingly asleep. A black-covered book was covering his face, so Raki couldn't see his features.

However, at this moment, Raki didn't care what the man looked like, because the speedboat was about to crash into the large ship they were on.

He was terrified and tried to turn around to tell Jebt, but the next second, the speedboat pierced through the hull like an arrow and finally came to a slow stop.

Chapter 183 Giger Passing By

This slave-trapping ship was similar to an ordinary pirate ship, and its materials were not particularly sturdy. After being hit like that, the hull was severely damaged, and a large hole was torn in the top.

Worst of all, the impact caused numerous cracks to appear on the hull, and the entire ship was rapidly sinking into the sea.

Jebt was furious and quickly ordered his men to bring out the spare small boat.

As a Devil Fruit user, Lucky's biggest fear was falling into the sea. As soon as the small boat was pushed out, he couldn't wait to jump on, but Jebt grabbed him and threw him aside.

Jebt glared at him fiercely and roared.

"Go and bring that stinky fish up here first. If we lose it, we'll all starve!"

Laki had no choice but to fight Tiger first, but his strength in his human form wasn't great, and he was only able to carry Tiger in his half-beast form in the end.

By this time, two-thirds of the ship had already sunk into the sea. Jebt immediately ordered his men to push all the small boats into the sea, and then jumped onto one of the boats first. Raki carried Tiger and followed closely behind Jebt.

However, the number of small boats was ultimately limited and could not carry all of them. With no other choice, the lowly henchmen jumped into the sea and struggled desperately to get closer to the small boats in hopes of survival.

Jebt watched with heartache as his large ship sank completely into the vast ocean, his anger surging within him.

He abruptly turned his head, grabbed Raki beside him, his eyes wide with anger, and questioned him through gritted teeth:

"Damn it! What just happened?! Who wrecked my ship?!"
