One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

Chapter 204 Shadow Strangulation! The First Show of Shadow Animation and the Resentment of the Iron

The sea breeze howled, and the Sunny, guided by the mermaid Cammy, sailed through the waves.

Finally, it smoothly entered a huge circular wooden base built on the sea.

This is the joint headquarters of the human traffickers "Makuro Family" and the notorious and tyrannical "Flying Fish Knights".

The area was completely surrounded by barricades and towers made of sturdy logs.

"Everyone be careful, we've entered their encirclement."

Nami stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the towering wooden buildings around her, and calmly offered her advice.

No sooner had he finished speaking than an unusually piercing engine roar and the sound of something tearing through the air suddenly came from the sky.

"Buzz—!!!"

With a splash of water, dozens of flying fish racers riding huge, broad-winged flying fish suddenly rose into the air from beneath the sea.

The flying fish glided through the air, its engine spewing out black exhaust fumes.

These knights circled brazenly above the Sunshine, casting the entire ship in their shadow.

"Hahaha! What a bunch of stupid idiots who don't know their own mortality!"

The lead flying fish knight tossed a black, round bomb in his hand, looking down at the sky and letting out an arrogant, maniacal laugh:

"How dare you trespass into the territory of our Flying Fish Knights all by yourself!"

"On the vast ocean, when you encounter elite forces like us with flying mounts, your dilapidated ship will only be a sitting duck!"

"Men! Let's teach these pirates a lesson! Blow their ship to pieces!"

With a command given, a barrage of specially made gunpowder bombs rained down on the deck of the Sunshine, accompanied by a whistling sound.

"Tch, a bunch of weaklings flying in the sky, do they really think they're invincible?"

Zoro snorted coldly, his eyes narrowing.

On the other side, Sanji also took a deep drag on his cigarette and slammed his leather shoes on the deck.

However, just as the two main forces were preparing to unleash their fury...

A long, slender hand firmly pressed down on Zoro's shoulder from behind, interrupting his action of drawing his sword.

Zoro turned his head slightly and saw Viktor's calm profile.

Viktor slightly raised his sharply defined chin.

A chilling, dangerous smile slowly crept onto his lips.

"You don't need to do anything."

"Perfect, I'll use these annoying flies buzzing around to test my new toy."

It was noon.

The blazing sun shone directly onto the grass deck, casting a long, dark shadow of Victor's tall figure.

With a thought from Viktor, chakra began to circulate wildly within his body along a completely new path.

A shocking scene unfolded—

The dark shadow that had been clinging to the deck and was deathly still beneath Victor's feet seemed to be instantly infused with some kind of violent and unparalleled life force.

The dark shape tumbled, twisted, and swelled violently in the sunlight!

"Blood Succession Limit·Shadow Breakthrough!"

Without any unnecessary hand seals, Viktor's eyes instantly turned cold.

“Swish, swish, swish—!”

The surging shadow instantly rose upright from the two-dimensional deck, directly breaking through the constraints of the laws of physics.

It split into dozens of incredibly flexible black whips.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!!!"

The air was mercilessly torn apart, producing bursts of sonic booms.

Dozens of black shadow whips, moving at a terrifying speed that broke the sound barrier, shot straight into the sky like dozens of furious black dragons!

They lashed fiercely at the bodies of every flying fish rider in the sky and the flying fish mounts beneath them.

The instant kill and the shock occurred at the same time.

Those flying fish knights who were laughing arrogantly just a second ago didn't even have time to let out a complete scream.

His ribs were snapped and his armor shattered by this unparalleled force.

People and fish, like dumplings being dropped into boiling water, plummeted from mid-air with a series of crackling sounds, crashing heavily into the surrounding seawater and splashing up large white waves.

This happened so fast that it was almost too fast for anyone to even blink.

Usopp and Chopper, who were standing at the back of the deck, had their jaws dislocated and slammed onto the grass.

"N-Nani?!"

Usopp pointed at the dark shadow slowly retreating beneath Victor's feet and stammered in surprise:

"Victor...did you secretly eat Moria's Shadow-Shadow Fruit when we weren't looking?!"

Viktor casually waved his hand, and the menacing black whips instantly receded like a tide.

They converged again at his feet, returning to an ordinary, still reflection.

He turned around, looking at the stunned crowd, still maintaining that smiling expression:

"Ah, it seems the practical results are pretty good."

"But you're wrong, this isn't some kind of Devil Fruit power."

"It's just a secret ninja technique from my hometown, no need to make such a fuss."

With the aerial obstacles cleared instantly, the Sunny approached the central area of ​​the base without hindrance.

"Found you! Takoyaki!"

Standing at the bow of the ship, Luffy immediately spotted Hachi, who was bound hand and foot with extremely thick iron chains and hung like a dumpling in a huge iron cage in the center of the base.

"Rubber, rubber—"

Luffy stretched his right arm back and threw a punch.

The fist, imbued with superhuman strength, shattered the seemingly indestructible iron cage.

They pulled out the tightly bound Xiao Ba and landed him steadily on the deck of the Sunshine.

Hachi, now free, rolled twice on the deck, breaking free of his chains.

"We're saved! Thank you so much, young pirates..."

While rubbing his wrist, which was sore from being strangled, Xiao Ba excitedly looked up, wanting to express his gratitude.

However, when his gaze swept over the crowd, it finally settled on the girl with long orange hair standing in the center of the deck.

Xiao Ba's massive body suddenly stiffened, as if it had been frozen in place.

The grateful smile on his face vanished instantly.

Instead, there was an unconcealable panic and an indelible deep sense of guilt.

"Bang."

Xiao Ba's heavy body suddenly buckled at the knees, and he collapsed heavily onto the deck of the Sunshine.

His six hands fumbled on the ground helplessly, his massive body trembling slightly, and he didn't even dare to lift his head to look directly into Nami's bright eyes.

"Nami... Nami..."

Xiao Ba's voice trembled violently, filled with a deep sense of guilt:

"I'm sorry... I really didn't know... that it was you who came to save me..."

Facing the core members of the Arlong Pirates from back then.

Nami stood there, looking down at Hachi, who was kneeling in front of her, trembling.

For a fleeting moment, a complex emotion flickered uncontrollably in the depths of her eyes.

Eight years of enslavement are not something that can be completely forgotten.

At this moment when everyone was at a loss for words.

Viktor strode over to Nami's side with remarkable ease.

His tall and imposing figure silently blocked the view of half the deck.

She felt a sense of security from the man beside her.

Nami closed her eyes slightly and took a deep breath of the fresh air, which carried the salty scent of the sea.

At that moment, she suddenly realized with absolute clarity.

Those heavy nightmares of the past, those fears that woke her up in the middle of the night.

It turns out that she had already completely disappeared without her realizing it after meeting Luffy, Viktor, and this group of companions who were willing to risk their lives for her.

She is now a free navigator, someone who is deeply loved and protected.

Nami opened her eyes again, the complex emotions in them completely gone.

She looked at Xiao Ba, who was kneeling on the ground and dared not raise his head, and smiled calmly.

"Get up, Hachi."

"The past ended the day Luffy completely destroyed and collapsed Arlong Park."

She tilted her head slightly, revealing a playful smile:

"Besides...didn't we agree that if we rescued you, you would treat us to the best takoyaki in the world?"

"We came all this way on empty stomachs."

Hearing this seemingly casual yet incredibly weighty word of forgiveness...

Xiao Ba, who was kneeling on the ground, was struck dumb. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Nami's untroubled smile.

The guilt and gratitude in my heart erupted like a volcano.

"Nami... Waaaaah..."

The enormous octopus-like fishman was so moved that he covered his face with all six hands.

Tears and snot streamed down his face like a waterfall; he cried on the deck like a two-hundred-pound child.

"Thank you... thank you so much..."

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon witnessing this touching scene, preparing to cheer that they could finally feast on takoyaki,

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

From the deepest part of this sea base, an unusually heavy earthquake suddenly shook the earth!

It was accompanied by a deafening, rough and wild roar of "Moo!"

A gigantic amphibious yak, with an unusually large body covered in black fur and even wearing a heavy steel helmet on its head, smashed through the thick wooden wall inside the base with an unstoppable ferocity and burst out!

On the broad back of that enormous yak sat a very tall and robust man.

He was wearing a heavy black leather jacket covered in studs, exuding a wild and untamed vibe.

What's chilling is that his entire head was completely covered by a very thick, strangely shaped, and somewhat comical iron mask, making it impossible to see his true face.

The leader of the Flying Fish Knights, Iron Mask Dibaru, made his official debut at this moment, filled with overwhelming resentment!

Dubalu rode on the back of a frenzied yak and stopped on a wooden platform not far from the Sunny.

He peered through the two narrow slits left on the heavy iron mask.

His eyes swept rapidly across the faces of the Straw Hat crew members with an unusually frantic and fierce gaze.

finally.

His gaze, filled with endless resentment, was fixed on Sanji, who was leaning against the side of the Sunny with a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

Duval suddenly raised the huge, sharp harpoon in his hand, its tip pointing directly at Sanji's nose.

He let out a deafening roar of grief and indignation that echoed through the heavens:

"Black Leg Sanji—!!!"

"I've finally... I've finally found you on this vast ocean!!!"

Dibaru's voice was filled with barely concealed sobs and a frenzied killing intent:

"It's all because of you! It's all because of you, you damn bastard!"

"It completely ruined my peaceful and happy rural life!!!"

"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you today to vent my hatred!!!"

On the deck of the Sunny.

Sanji heard this tearful accusation.

He was about to press the lighter to light his cigarette when he froze in mid-air, completely stiff.

Sanji stared at the one eye that was sticking out, his face full of a speechless expression as if he were looking at an idiot.

He pointed to his nose with a puzzled expression, looking at the madman in the iron mask sitting on the back of the yak, his tone full of bewilderment:

"Huh? Who are you?"

"Although I have quite a few enemies."

"But I certainly don't remember anyone like you, a complete idiot wearing an iron mask in this sweltering heat, do I?"
