Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 255 The World's Number One Casino and the World's Number One Gambler! (Two chapters, please subscribe!)

A blue-eyed white dragon gallops across the sky above the North Sea.

The giant snail castle of the Germa Kingdom quickly turned into a small cluster of black dots on the sea.

Meanwhile, the Sky Garden, thousands of meters above the ground, was left behind by the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and gradually disappeared into the sea of ​​clouds.

Storm withdrew his gaze from the Sky Garden and instead focused his attention on the permanent pointer in his hand.

This is Grantezoro's permanent pointer, which he just "borrowed" from Nami.

At this moment, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's destination was also—

New World, Grantezoro!

Driven by her admiration for this "world's largest entertainment city" as described in the newspapers, Nami originally wanted to travel with Storm.

However, Storm refused Nami's invitation to accompany him, citing the "North Sea Hunt Plan".

For the current members of the Storm Pirates, the New World is still too dangerous.

Storm had long planned to bring the Storm Pirates into the New World—

Or rather, almost all pirate crews eventually settle in the New World.

But not every pirate crew can withstand the storms and waves of the New World.

Storm had also considered whether to take the members of the Storm Pirates directly from the North Blue across the Calm Belt and into the New World.

However, after careful consideration, he later cancelled this somewhat radical plan.

Storm's tentative strategy for the Storm Pirates is as follows:

First, they'll operate in the North Sea, then enter the Grand Line, and finally reach the New World!

At least until the "Storm Grand Fleet Squad Ranking Battle" ends.

Storm has no intention of bringing the Storm Pirates into the New World.

The "ship's doctor" recruited for this return to the North Sea is Trafalgar Ro.

Storm also left Luo in the North Sea.

This "ship's doctor" of the Storm Pirates has a heavy burden on his shoulders.

First, Law needs to participate in Bonney's "Jade Scale" treatment plan;

Secondly, Law needs to participate in the Storm Pirates' "North Blue Hunt Plan";

Finally, and most importantly, Luo needs to strengthen his physical training!

The "Op-Op Fruit" truly deserves the title of "Ultimate Fruit".

But just as Storm said before—

Law is too reliant on Devil Fruits!

Every single Devil Fruit user can rely on Devil Fruits, but they absolutely cannot rely solely on Devil Fruits!

[Domineering], restraining all fancy and flashy things.

The ability mechanism of the "Op-Op Fruit" is indeed very powerful.

However, if the target's Haki is too strong, Law's Op-Op Fruit won't even be able to shake them.

Storm didn't expect Law's physique and Haki to reach the level of Kaido of the Beasts or Bullet, the Devil's Heir.

But at the very least, he can't be so weak that he doesn't even have the strength to "cut someone," right?

In short, it all boils down to those four words—

If you're bad at cooking, just practice more!

"I hope the crew members can grow up quickly. There are still many things that need help handling..."

Storm suppressed his anticipation.

He continuously adjusted the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's flight direction based on the direction indicated by the permanent pointer in his hand.

When the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's flight direction is completely aligned with the direction of the permanent pointer.

Storm then put down the permanent pointer and went into a resting state.

"New world, I'm back!"

……

The New World, Grantezoro.

During this period of time.

After the World Economic News bombarded the media with propaganda.

Those on the high seas who should know about Grantezoro are basically aware of the existence of this "world's largest entertainment city".

On the turbulent New World Ocean, a ten-kilometer-long golden warship is sailing steadily on the surface.

Near the strangely shaped bow of the golden warship, two equally enormous sea turtles were lurking in the sea. Thick chains were attached to the turtles' bodies, and the ends of the chains were connected to the bow of the golden warship.

Clearly, the "power source" of this golden behemoth is these two enormous sea turtles.

This colossal golden warship was painstakingly crafted by the Golden Emperor Gild Tesoro.

Grantezoro!

Above the sea near Grantezolo.

A small, dark shadow was floating there.

A blind old man in purple robes, holding a cane and a knife, stood on a round stone slab as wide as his shoulders, slowly approaching the magnificent and beautiful golden warship.

If a swordsman familiar with famous swords were here, he would surely recognize the true identity of the cane-sword that the purple-robed old man held, which resembled a guide cane.

One of the twelve Supreme Grade Swords—[Blackline]!

The blind swordsman wielding the "Black Path" is actually the future Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, nicknamed "Fujitora"—the chivalrous Issho.

Yixiao lost his sight, but his mastery of Observation Haki was extremely high.

With his Observation Haki, which has an extremely wide range of perception, Ikko, who was in the sky, could perceive the entire situation in Grantezoro clearly.

"What an exaggerated 'ship'!"

Yixiao increased his flight speed and flew towards Gulandezolo.

"What an outrageous 'casino'!"

As a seasoned gambler who enjoys gambling.

Yixiao has traveled to many countries and visited many casinos in his life.

But he had never seen a casino as big as Grantezoro!

Really...

"This is so exciting!"

Very few countries or powers possess "air superiority" over the high seas.

At least Grantezoro doesn't have that ability.

In addition, Yixiao's individual goals are very small.

The old blind swordsman infiltrated Grantezoro effortlessly without alerting anyone.

however.

The moment he stepped onto Grantezoro, Issho's Observation Haki sensed that something was wrong.

The air in Grantezoro seemed to be filled with an atmosphere of extravagance and debauchery.

But Yixiao keenly perceived this feeling, which was not only spiritual but also material.

The air in Grantezoro was filled with a large amount of gold dust.

Some gold dust is visible to the human eye.

However, some gold dust is difficult to see even with the naked eye.

Ikko's Observation Haki clearly detected that a large number of people in Grantezoro had unknowingly inhaled this golden dust.

Moreover, as they stayed on the ship longer, the amount of gold dust they inhaled increased.

Although, so far, Yixiao has not found any people whose behavior has become abnormal due to ingesting gold dust.

However, one should not have the intention to harm others, but one must be wary of others.

Thud!

Yi Xiao gently placed the [Black Path Fireline] in his hand on the golden deck of Grantezoro. A faint purple light flashed across his body, enveloping him completely.

The gold powder floating in the air was drawn by an inexplicable force just before it entered the space around Yixiao's body, and immediately drifted down onto the deck below.

Ikkō, a user of the Paramecia-type Gravity-Gravity Fruit, can manipulate the strength and direction of gravity at will.

Using the power of the [Heavy Fruit], Issho created a "gravity field" around his body, physically isolating him from the invasion of the gold powder.

Knock knock knock—

Then a series of knocking sounds rang out.

With a smile, he walked forward unhurriedly, his mind filled with information about the Golden Emperor.

Legend has it that the Golden Emperor was a user of the Paramecia-type Gold-Gold Fruit...

'These gold dust particles floating in the air must also be the work of the Golden Emperor…'

'Perhaps this is the unique management method possessed by Grantezoro?'

Yi Xiao couldn't be sure if his guess was true.

But he can't care about that now.

because……

The old gambler's addiction kicked in!

"Oh dear! So many casinos! Which one should I go to?"

After hesitating for a while, he took out a die from his pocket and shook it gently.

"This is the one!"

With a smile, he put away the dice, took out his money bag, and strode towards the nearest gambling den.

"My hands are itching to get started!"

……

Grantezoro, the central tower.

This golden tower, standing at the very center of Grantezolo, is the residence of the Golden Emperor Gild Tezolo.

From the top of this tower, the Golden Emperor can take in the entire panorama of Grantezoro.

At this moment.

Gild Tezzolo was observing a certain direction of Gran Tezzolo from afar.

That's exactly where Yixiao logged in!

Tesoro withdrew his gaze from that place and returned to the tower room behind him.

"Grantezoro has welcomed another interesting 'guest'!"

The gold dust permeating the air of Gran Tesoro was indeed Tesoro's doing.

If Tezzolo is willing.

Anyone who enters Gran Tesoro and inhales the gold powder can be transformed into an immovable "golden statue" by Tesoro using his own [Gold-Gold Fruit] ability.

of course.

Under normal circumstances, Tesoro would not use this ability.

He is a businessman, and force is the last resort for solving problems.

However, these gold dusts were ultimately influenced by Tesoro's Devil Fruit powers.

With the presence of these gold dust particles, Tesoro could also monitor any movement on this golden behemoth.

Almost at the very moment Yixiao logged in and used his ability to isolate himself from the corrosive effects of the gold powder.

Tesoro then sensed the presence of this "guest".

Among a bunch of fools corrupted by gold dust.

A special target, isolated from all the gold dust, shone as brightly as a firefly in the dark.

However, Tezzolo didn't intend to do anything to this guest.

The opponent is an enemy who can detect and shield the power of the gold powder.

With just his abilities, Tesoro can roughly judge the opponent's strength level.

Faced with such a "strongman".

Tezzolo would only welcome them; he would never actually try to drive them away.

however.

If any other uninvited guests want to cause trouble on Grantezoro.

Tezzolo will definitely not let this go.
