Pirate: My Piltover technology is far ahead!

Chapter 410 What are you BOSSes doing loitering around the newbie village entrance every day?

With the rough cane resting on his shoulder, an unprecedented sense of crisis welled up in Kidd's heart. In that instant, Kidd felt as if he were being watched by some kind of wild beast, his body constantly sending him danger signals.

"If a blind person can see a fist, then it seems you're not completely blind!"

Kidd seems to be someone who is born without knowing what fear is or what terror is. In the original timeline, he completely embodied what it means to be audacious and reckless.

In the original timeline, after entering the New World, he stirred up trouble everywhere. First, he provoked the Red-Haired Pirates, but before he could even see Shanks, he lost an arm.

After that, he provoked the Big Mom Pirates, and was eventually defeated by Kaido.

In a sense, Kaido is the most tolerant of the Four Emperors.

After capturing Kidd, they wanted to take him under their wing. Although Kidd refused, they didn't kill him. Instead, they made him mine constantly to torture him, and his companions were not all killed or injured.

This is Kaido's true nature: as long as he is interested in someone, his tolerance is infinitely high.

Later, during the Onigashima battle, Kid, who was playing a "support" role, misjudged his own strength. After defeating Big Mom with Law, who was constantly dealing true damage, he went to provoke Shanks again, but was also swiftly and decisively sunk into the sea and lost all contact with him.

Although Kidd sensed danger, he showed no sign of backing down. His mechanical arm was inexplicably unable to lift, but he still had his own fists.

Kidd then deactivated his Devil Fruit power, drew a dagger from his waist, and stabbed it behind him without looking back.

But Kidd had only made half of his movement when that terrifying pressure began to spread through his body. No matter how hard Kidd tried, he couldn't resist the immense gravity and finally collapsed to the ground.

"He really is a dangerous person, but unfortunately, pirate, your voyage ends here."

Let alone Kidd when he first entered the Grand Line, even if he reached the Sabaody Archipelago or two years later, the result would basically be the same. The only difference would be how much force he would use to smile.

Especially for pirates who have just entered the Grand Line, dealing with them is a piece of cake. Yi Xiao did this just as casually.

He was originally there to inspect the situation of the troops outside the island as part of a mission on the island, and just happened to encounter this situation.

Kidd's bad luck can only be described as a case of being unlucky. It's similar to a hero who has just left the beginner village and is about to show his skills when he encounters a fully powered Demon King. Unless the Demon King goes easy on him and triggers the protagonist's halo, even with unlimited lives, he can't get past this level.

"You bastard, how could my voyage... possibly end here! Ah!"

Kidd, who was pinned to the ground, was not convinced and kept trying to stand up. As Kidd struggled, his bones seemed to be groaning.

Finally, with a roar, Kidd managed to stand up again despite the gravity field.

"Captain Kidd!"

"Boss Kid! We knew you could do it! Let him see the power of the future Pirate King!"

Kidd's men were excited by Kidd's renewed rise, but within seconds, an even deeper despair crushed their hopes.

Seeing Kidd stand up again, Yixiao looked at him expressionlessly, his pale eyes revealing no emotion. But as Yixiao's attention fell on him, the weight pressing down on him instantly doubled, rendering all of Kidd's efforts utterly futile.

"I've already said it, your voyage ends here."

A smile's gravitational field began to spread outwards, precisely locking onto every member of the Kid Pirates.

Yi Xiao possesses extremely strong control over gravity, with enough force to press out bottomless abysses on the ground, and with even greater precision to accurately capture meteorites in space.

He can manage to attack the enemy without affecting friendly forces.

As I smiled and walked toward the foreign legion soldiers, the pirates fell one by one, and even Kidd never got up again.

As for what happens next, Yixiao doesn't need to worry about it. Whether he's locked up in prison or handed over to the Navy, the Foreign Legion soldiers can handle this kind of thing.

"Commander Yixiao, thank you for your help!"

As Yixiao walked over, the foreign legion squad leader stood up to greet him. Even though the two weren't directly subordinate to each other, Yixiao's status was far higher than his.

Yi Xiao ended the fight for them, so it was only natural for him to come over and say hello.

"It's nothing, we're all doing the same thing..."

"Captain! Commander Yixiao! There's a large pirate fleet ahead! There are probably more than thirty ships!!"

Before the two could exchange more than a few words, the lookout nearby brought back new information.

"So many pirates? Looks like my luck isn't so good today."

1

Quantity doesn't represent quality, but visually speaking, this number of pirates is more impressive.

"Wait...it doesn't seem like they're trying to land, it looks more like they're...escaping?"

From the lookout's perspective, a large number of pirate ships were fleeing for their lives, as if some monster was chasing them.

Yi Xiao wasn't initially very wary of the other side. The sheer number of people would be a big problem for ordinary people, but not for Yi Xiao.

Yixiao has more than one way to sink all those ships.

"Which pirate crew is it? Haven't they found out yet?"

"Not yet, they don't seem to be any famous pirate crew. Our system hasn't recorded them..."

"Looks like pirates passing by. Captain Issho, our mission is just to guard this island, and we don't have many troops. Shall we launch an attack?"

Different types of soldiers have different missions. They are not the soldiers of the Power Gear, and their mission is to fight pirates.

If the enemy does not actively land and plunder, the stationed troops can choose to let them all pass. However, now that there is a smile, there are new options, whether it is to carry out orders or other matters.

"Wait a minute."

With a smile, he gestured for them to move aside, and then drew out the Extreme Fire Line, one of the twelve supreme grade swords forged by Fuugetsu Kisaburo.

"Commander Yixiao, is the enemy difficult to deal with?"

They had heard of Issho's power. Although he appeared to be disabled, they all knew that Issho was no ordinary person. Even against a power user like Kid, Issho showed no intention of drawing his sword.

His current actions are not good news.

"There's trouble, but it's not them."

Yixiao's words carried Oran's riddle-like quality, but the members of the Foreign Legion also realized that something was wrong. The weather wasn't very good today, with quite a few dark clouds in the sky.

But now the dark clouds in the sky are like a piece of cloth that has been cut, with a tear in them.

Sunlight streamed down through the gaps in the dark clouds, but it brought no warmth whatsoever.

Instead, it sent greetings from hell.

Where the sunlight fell, the seawater was also cleaved open, chasing straight towards the fleeing pirate ship. The last pirate ship was quickly caught up by the force of the slash and was cleaved in two like cutting tofu.

The damaged ship sank into the sea, and the whirlpool it created as it sank claimed the lives of the crew members who couldn't escape in time. The remaining pirate ships, however, showed no sign of stopping and continued to flee madly forward.

The person who made the slash was clearly toying with their opponent. The attack was slightly off course, and after severing the pirate ship, it continued its powerful trajectory toward the island. It was this attack that caught Yixiao's attention.

"The tiger has fallen!"

With a smile, he swung his blade in response to the slash, completely neutralizing its force on the shore. "Chief! That guy's still behind us! We haven't shaken him off at all!"

"Another ship has been destroyed, Admiral! What do we do?!"

Seeing the last ship cleaved in two, the pirates on the other ships panicked. Without a leader, they looked helplessly at the man in golden armor in front of them.

He is known as Pirate Admiral Krieg, with a bounty of 1700 million Berries, and is known as the Overlord of the East Blue.

With 5000 soldiers and 50 pirate ships under his command, this force was quite large, even exceeding the strength of many smaller branches, making him a true hegemon in the East Blue.

But all that glory is now history. Krieg, who had dominated the East Blue for a while, also launched his own challenge to the Grand Line. Just by entering the Grand Line, they lost several ships.

Without engaging in any combat, the entry level alone caused him to lose one-tenth of his men.

This is the cruelty unique to the Grand Line, but this is only the beginning.

Behind the pirate fleet, a small boat resembling a coffin lid was following them at a leisurely pace. The person on board was the one who caused Krieg's escape and the mastermind behind that slash: Dracule Mihawk, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Klee had no idea why this monster kept chasing him; all he knew was that every time the monster swung its blade, his fleet would lose a ship!

With a flash of light, another ship sank into the sea right before the pirates' eyes, which made the remaining pirates even more terrified.

They frantically rowed the huge oars inside the cabin, throwing heavy objects into the sea in an attempt to increase speed.

But it was no use. Hawkeye wasn't chasing closely; he just trailed behind at a leisurely pace. Whenever Krieg's men thought they had shaken off Hawkeye, his ship would suddenly accelerate and rush up.

When the Krieg Pirates get tired, Hawkeye's speed also slows down, like a cat chasing a mouse.

They constantly toyed with their opponents.

"Notify the ships behind us to prepare to fire. Have the last five ships line up in a row and tell them that I, the admiral, have a way to deal with him."

"Yes, Admiral Klee!"

Although he couldn't beat Hawkeye, Krieg could still handle his men, and even when being chased, he could still carry out his orders.

"Admiral, this won't work."

A man with sparse hair and a beard, deep dark circles around his eyes, thick lips, a gray and blue striped headband, and round red earrings on each ear approached and asked a question with slight hesitation.

He is Akin, the combat captain on the ship.

A man who disappeared for countless years after saying goodbye to the new world, leading to the idea that everything can be made into a gold digger.

They tried to fight back at first, but they were no match for their opponents; guns and cannons posed no threat.

The result of ramming the ship was that the ship was split in two, and even Krieg's invincible poison gas attack was directly blown away by the sea wind created by the opponent.

It was precisely because they couldn't win that they embarked on this path of escape.

"It's useless. Once the ships behind us have formed their formation, we'll sink them directly."

"Admiral Krik, that's one of our own!"

"I know, but as long as we can hold off that monster, losing a few ships is no big deal!"

Krieg's thinking was simple: sometimes escaping doesn't necessarily mean running faster than your pursuers; you just need to run faster than your own people.

When a ship sinks, it causes turbulent ocean currents. The suction force of the current at that moment is terrifying, and the other ship's small plank will definitely be pulled in directly.

Even if he couldn't get involved, he could still greatly delay the enemy's progress. As for the lives of his subordinates, Klick didn't care about that at all; as long as he could survive, that was enough.

As a pirate who is arrogant, ruthless, despicable, and vicious, Krieg has no concept of loyalty.

Even his savior, Krieg would betray him without hesitation. He would never care about the lives of his subordinates. In Krieg's eyes, the greatest use of his underlings was to buy time.

"But..."

"No buts! Do it now!"

"yes!"

Seeing the terrifying look in Klee's eyes, Akin ultimately chose to carry out the order.

With a few cannon shots, the mast of the pirate ship at the rear was blown off, and the ship lost its sails. The ship's speed dropped rapidly, and then the cannon fire accurately hit the ship's ammunition compartment, sinking the ship and its crew into the sea.

After that, Hawkeye did indeed remain silent for a while, leading Krieg to believe that his plan had succeeded.

However, he didn't know that Hawkeye was not affected at all at this moment; he was just distracted by someone else.

"Mr. Issho, it's Mihawk, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He's here."

"Okay, I understand."

Yixiao had already sensed the eagle eye ahead, but in Yixiao's perception, in addition to carrying a knife on his back, the other party seemed to be carrying a... propeller in his hand.

"That slash just now was yours, wasn't it? I didn't expect to run into a strong opponent like you in this spot. I'm quite bored right now, would you like to spar with me?"

Hunting down Krieg was just a way to kill time, at least that was Hawkeye's official explanation. Even if they fought tooth and nail, that was all they had to do.

In Hawkeye's view, Krieg couldn't escape; such a strong opponent was hard to come by, let alone a swordsman.

It would be a shame not to exchange ideas.

"I don't seem to have any reason to duel you, but if you insist, I'd like to experience the strength of the world's greatest swordsman."

Even a smile can be a swordsman's gift. Most swordsmen would want to challenge the world's number one swordsman, who is recognized as the greatest swordsman in the world, after seeing him. However, Hawkeye brought up something else.

"Um, you're from Piltover, so do you know how to fix this? This thruster broke down before, and I haven't had a chance to get it repaired yet."
