One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

Chapter 278 Arrogant Bets! Speechless Crew and the God of the Dividing Sea

The main hall square of the Dragon Palace.

Following that earth-shattering explosion.

The outer passage of the Dragon Palace Castle, which was originally perfectly protected within the deep-sea bubble, has been completely destroyed.

Large amounts of icy, bone-chilling seawater, now unobstructed, poured in like a raging waterfall, creating surging waves across the wide square.

In this chaotic flow of water.

Hody Jones, riding a gigantic, ferocious sea monster, led a large group of fully armed, murderous members of the new Fishman Pirates and officially stormed into the main plaza of Ryugu Castle.

In Hody's strong, powerful hands, it was as if he were holding a human who had fainted like a helpless chick.

Hody commanded the sea monster to stop in the center of the plaza, and held the unconscious Luffy high in his arms, as if displaying a rare trophy.

He pointed his sharp trident directly at Luffy's unresponsive head, and let out an arrogant, overbearing laugh at King Neptune and the Straw Hat crew opposite him:

"Hahaha! Open your eyes wide and see clearly!"

"This is the 'Worst Generation' that you humans boast about so much!"

"Faced with this absolute power of the deep sea, this pirate with a bounty of one billion isn't even worthy of carrying my shoes!"

Hody took a deep breath and loudly announced his long-planned grand scheme to everyone in the square.

He not only intends to completely overthrow the weak and incompetent rule of the Dragon Palace, but also to exterminate the Neptune clan.

They also want to publicly execute Luffy, the straw hat guy in their hands, in front of the whole world.

He intended to use this shocking human head as the beginning of the Fish-Men's formal rule over humanity and their full-scale, bloody revenge against humankind.

Hody was secretly pleased with himself.

He thought his swift and decisive actions and bloody declaration would plunge the Straw Hat crew into deep despair.

Some people might even be unable to bear such a blow and burst into tears, or kneel in the water and beg for mercy.

However, when he stopped his speech and looked straight ahead, he found that the scene opposite him was completely different.

Soaking in waist-deep seawater, Zoro covered his face with one hand, his expression darkening, and let out a long, helpless sigh:

"That hopeless idiot..."

"He must have eaten too much and was out of his mind, which is why he accidentally fell into the water."

Nami, standing to the side, was so angry she was practically fuming, stomping her feet without a care for her image.

She pointed at Luffy, who was lying unconscious in Hody's arms, and roared:

"We're out there on high alert, ready to deal with the enemy, and you just walked right into our trap!"

The entire Straw Hat crew completely disregarded Hody, who was holding a hostage and exuding murderous intent.

They were all busy complaining about their captain's idiotic and eccentric behavior.

This complete disregard for his feelings caused Hordy's already inflated ego to suffer another great humiliation.

This sense of humiliation was even more unbearable for him than Luffy's seemingly effortless punch.

Enraged, Hody gritted his teeth, his eyes practically spitting fire.

He vowed to make these arrogant and foolish humans pay the most terrible price, even as they faced certain death.

Just as he was about to give the order to attack, his crimson gaze swept past the Straw Hat crew and suddenly locked onto the massive pink figure hiding behind Viktor.

Hody recognized who it was at a glance.

Princess Shirahoshi has not stepped out of the Hard Shell Tower for a full ten years!

He was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter that was even more frenzied and unrestrained than before:

"Hahaha! Today is truly a lucky day for my new Fishman Pirates!"

"Even that cowardly princess who hid in the hard-shelled tower has come out on her own!"

"What that good-for-nothing Vander Deiken couldn't accomplish in ten years, I'll do for him today!"

"Sweep up the entire royal family!"

Hearing Hody's malicious laughter and undisguised killing intent, Shirahoshi trembled in fear.

Her massive body shrank further behind Viktor's "petite" back, her two huge fingers gripping the hem of Viktor's black coat tightly.

Tears of fear welled up in her eyes again, and she murmured in a trembling voice:

"Lord Victor... he's so scary..."

Hody looked at the black-clad human who stood in front of Shirahoshi and sneered:

"What, you overconfident human, you actually dare to try to protect the princess?"

That's utterly ridiculous!

At this moment, more seawater surged in from outside the damaged passage, like a river bursting its banks.

The water level in the square had already reached the chests of the crowd in a short time, and was still rising as seawater poured in.

Hody knew the fatal weakness of Devil Fruit users and was also aware that ordinary humans were completely unable to use their skills in water.

This plaza, submerged by seawater, is the absolute home ground for the fishmen!

To ensure everything went smoothly, Hody grabbed several handfuls of red "ES drugs" and roughly stuffed them all into his mouth, chewing and swallowing them.

The life-draining effects of the deadly drug quickly took hold.

Hody's muscles instantly bulged dramatically as if inflated, and the veins writhed and twisted under his skin like tiny snakes.

His eyes turned completely blood red, radiating a ferocious, beast-like aura.

Hody waved his hand, and hundreds of fish-man warriors who were also on drugs and huge deep-sea monsters surrounded the Straw Hat crew and the King's army from all sides.

With the help of the seawater, they had an absolute geographical advantage.

"Humans!"

"In the water, you can't even unleash half your usual strength!"

"Take them all down and tear them to pieces!"

Faced with this desperate situation where he was surrounded on all sides, Zoro snorted coldly and slowly drew his famous sword from his waist.

Nami also gripped the thundercloud "Fortress" tightly in her hand, and the Straw Hat crew's eyes sharpened, ready for battle.

Viktor, however, remained calm and composed as he watched Hody charging arrogantly toward him and the seawater surging in like a tsunami.

He didn't draw his weapon, but slowly raised his hands and gently clasped them together in front of his chest, just like Robin did when she used her powers.

Within his right eye, the faint purple ripples began to swirl faster, emanating a chilling pressure that sent shivers down one's spine.

The next second, a terrifying repulsive force that made the entire Dragon Palace City tremble violently erupted from him!

"Shinra Tensei!"

The deep shouts echoed across the square.

Under the horrified gazes of Hody Jones and all the fishmen.

The surging, massive seawater, weighing tens of millions of tons, seemed to have encountered an insurmountable divine wall in an instant.

This terrifying repulsive force, which defied the laws of nature, forcefully cleaved the vast expanse of water to both sides!

The water was violently pushed and shoved, producing a deafening roar.

The vast square, which had been submerged by seawater, was instantly cleared away by this invisible force, forming a huge, circular, waterless area.

The surrounding seawater rose high like a wall of water blocked by transparent glass, while the ground in the center remained completely dry.

Viktor stood silently on the parched ground, like a god parting the sea.

He looked at Hody, who had been forced back by the repulsive force and was now completely stunned, and uttered a sentence with a smile:

"Your once-proud home turf is gone."

The rising tone carried a chilling coldness:

"Now"

"Have you thought about how you want to die?"

"Miscellaneous fish?"
