One Piece: The user of the Nen-Nen Fruit, who overturned the sea.
Chapter 35 An Unexpected Gain
Three months passed in the blink of an eye.
Barrett's training methods over the past three months have been nothing short of brutal. Even Pea, who can draw energy from the surrounding environment to replenish herself, came to Roy to complain after experiencing it once.
However, after Roy patiently explained, he obediently went back to train together.
During these three months, the pea harvest was also the most abundant. He collected several samples of all the plants on the island and showed them to Roy, demonstrating how to ripen seeds in just a few seconds.
This delighted Roy and his friends, meaning they would never have to worry about food again.
Seeing this, Roy handed the modified "storage bag" to Pea, so that he could collect more seeds.
The successful modification of the "storage bag" initially delighted Roy and the others. After handing it over to Pea, Roy planned to head to "Kuraikana Island." The future Shichibukai, the great swordsman Hawkeye Dracule Mihawk, probably hadn't set sail yet at that time.
Roy could also learn some swordsmanship from him.
Just as the group was about to leave, Roy looked towards the north of the island, and Pea also noticed a group of uninvited guests on the island.
Stella descended from the sky, her expression grave: "They're pirates. Judging by the flag, they seem to be a squad leader under the banner of the great pirate Shiki."
"The captains of the Golden Lion's fleet? What are they doing here?"
"They seem to be looking for someone," Stella said, pointing to the north coast. "I saw their boat anchored there, searching the island."
Everyone immediately became alert. Roy had already analyzed the current situation on the high seas with them. The name of the Golden Lion was renowned throughout the New World, and even one of his captains was no ordinary person.
Roy pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Perfect, let's go see what's going on and use them to test our strength."
North Coast.
A pirate ship was anchored in the shallow bay, with the famous twin swords and skull emblem of the Golden Lion Fleet hanging from its mainmast. The ship itself was battered and bruised, indicating that it had been through many fierce battles.
At this moment, about twenty or thirty pirates were cursing and swearing as they retreated from the woods and gathered on the beach. Most of them were injured and looked exhausted.
"Damn it, this godforsaken place is all trees, not a soul in sight!"
"Keep your voice down, March. Do you want to attract that 'mad dog'?"
A minor leader with face paint was nervously looking around the jungle, and whispered a reprimand to the pirate who had spoken.
"Boss, what exactly are we looking for?"
Another young pirate couldn't help but ask, his arm in a sling, blood seeping through.
The leader's face was grim. Just as he was about to speak, a voice suddenly came from the woods to their side.
"I'd like to know the answer to that too!"
The pirates were startled and immediately raised their weapons, aiming them at the source of the sound.
Roy led Barrett and the others slowly out of the woods. The small leader was startled, as he had no idea when they had approached.
Upon closer inspection, Roy and his group were no longer the 'mad dogs' who had been chasing them, but rather a few young lads. Roy stepped forward and shouted sharply:
"Who are you? We are the Flying Pirates, the 7th Division under Lord Shiki the Golden Lion! If you know what's good for you, get out of here and don't interfere with our business!"
"Hehe~ The name of the Golden Lion can't scare us, besides, he's not even here."
Roy said with a grin, his gaze sweeping over the disheveled group of pirates.
"Tell me, what are you looking for here? And where is your squad leader?"
"Kid, this is none of your business. Do you really want to be enemies with the Flying Pirates? Lord Shiki is a great pirate of the New World!"
The leader, seeing that the group was young, assumed they were unaware of Shiki the Golden Lion's terrifying and intimidating nature.
"Sigh~ Looks like I'll have to beat them up first." Roy didn't want to waste any more words with them and glanced at Barrett and the others beside him.
"Don't kill them, I want to know their purpose."
"Roy, I already told you, why would I just tell you directly? It's such a waste of time!"
Barrett grumbled, then clapped his fists together and shot out like an arrow, his target the underling.
Almost as soon as Barrett made his move, Tesoro and the others rushed forward as well.
The leader's pupils constricted sharply. Barrett's speed exceeded his expectations. In a haste, he raised his knife to parry, but with a loud clang, the long knife flew out of his hand. Barrett's fist was aimed straight at his chest, and he was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing directly onto the beach and kicking up a cloud of sand.
"Boss!"
The other pirates were shocked and furious, and they roared and charged forward. However, they were not facing ordinary children, but a group of monsters who had undergone three months of brutal training by Barrett and had already been transformed.
Tesoro moved with agility, unleashing a series of Marine Six Powers in succession, combined with his basic dual-color Haki, each attack precisely taking down a pirate.
Stella, utilizing her aerial advantage, observed the entire battlefield and, with each move, eliminated ambushing opponents.
Savi did not fully transform into a beast, but maintained his human-beast form, making his body more agile. Combined with the Six Styles of the Navy, he was able to achieve good results.
Pea didn't participate in close combat. He stood in front of Roy, took out a few seeds from his 'storage bag', and pressed his hands to the ground. In an instant, countless vines sprouted from the beach, strangling and binding the pirates with the precision of venomous snakes.
In less than two minutes, the pirates who were just cursing and swearing had all lost their ability to resist, except for the small leader who was blasted away by Barrett's punch.
Roy used his mental power to lift up the petty leader who was vomiting blood, placed him in front of him, squatted down, and looked at the petty leader with a mocking expression.
"Now? You can answer my question properly now."
The leader coughed violently, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Looking at his men, whose fates were unknown, and then at the seemingly harmless boy in front of him, his mental defenses completely collapsed.
He knew that the name of the Golden Lion wouldn't scare them, and if he didn't speak up, he wouldn't have a chance to live.
"I'll say it... I'll say it..."
"I...I don't know either. We were ordered by the squad leader to go to 'Paradise' to find something..."
"Oh? Where's your squad leader? How come there are only a few of you left?"
"Ahem~ The captain was killed when we ran into that mad dog Garp when we went to 'Paradise' again."
When Garp was mentioned, the minor leader trembled involuntarily, and deep fear appeared in his eyes.
"Is that all you know? What was your purpose in going to the first half? Don't try to trick me anymore."
Seeing that Roy was losing patience, the henchman quickly took out a life-saving paper from his pocket.
"This is... something the squad leader gave me before he died. Before I set off, I think I heard that a slave stole one of Lord Shiki's Devil Fruits and ran away."
