Chapter 436 The Leaf Village Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates

Bang!

Green Bull had barely made a move when he was easily sent flying by Whitebeard's casual punch!

This man, who was forced to challenge Whitebeard, did not perform at all what a lieutenant general who had been promoted exceptionally was. He was directly punched back by Whitebeard and rolled on the ground in a very sorry state!

Whether it's Fujitora, who can go toe-to-toe with Whitebeard, or Kagura, who can withstand the impact of Whitebeard's full-force Conqueror's Haki, Green Bull's strength is clearly a bit weak...

"Is that all?"

"There's absolutely no force that can resist them..."

"Is Vice Admiral Green Bull really that weak? Isn't he on par with Vice Admiral Kagura and Vice Admiral Fujitora? I heard he was also listed as a candidate for admiral..."

The discussions among the marines and pirates on Enies Lobby were quite noisy, as they talked about Green Bull, who was on par with Kagura and Fujitora, and seemed quite disappointed with his performance.

to be honest…

Many people are quite looking forward to Green Bull's performance.

Although Green Bull was ambushed by Yasopp, a sniper from the Red-Haired Pirates, in the initial battle, his Forest-Forest Fruit ability is similar to that of Hashirama Senju, the captain of the Konoha Pirates, which inevitably raises some expectations for him...

I never expected this...

The opponent was surprisingly weak!

"That old man!"

Green Bull's face was full of anger. He dusted himself off and got up. Looking at the unmoved white beard, he gritted his teeth in hatred, and vines sprouted from his body again!

Are you kidding me!

How could I be so weak!

Green Bull had already heard the murmurs of the crowd. He couldn't tolerate himself becoming a weakling, a victim of others' trampling. He simply couldn't accept it!

Humans...

Green Bull is a creature that rises to the top of the world by constantly trampling on those who are more lowly than himself. What Green Bull wants to do is become the man who rises by trampling on other humans, not become a lowly sacrifice to be trampled on!

Green Bull raised his wrist, and emerald green vines stretched straight toward Whitebeard, his face contorted with rage!

Vines climbed up the gunwales of the Moby Dick, and tall tree-men grew out of the vines, rushing towards the Moby Dick!

"Little brat..."

"Your skills only qualify you to be a gardener..."

Whitebeard raised his eyes, his gaze filled with arrogance and disdain, and looked at the vines spreading from Green Bull's body. He then used his greatsword to cleave the vines and tree man to pieces!

A white halo flashed and disappeared in the blink of an eye from the greatsword in his hand!

The white aura flew towards Green Bull along with Whitebeard's slash, striking Green Bull's body directly with immense air-shaking force!

Green Bull's body trembled instantly!

Even his bare upper body was covered in wounds, from which blood oozed out, and the blood immediately soaked his entire body!

This lieutenant general…

They're really too weak!

Although Green Bull is stronger than the other vice admirals Whitebeard encountered, he seems to be the weakest among the vice admirals on Enies Lobby!

The weaker…

The more they try to prove their hidden strength, the more they want to demonstrate it!

"asshole…"

Don't underestimate me!

Green Bull's brain seemed to be completely burned by rage. Ignoring his injuries, he struggled and pounced towards Whitebeard. Vines grew from his body again, turning him into a tree-man. He raised his claws and grabbed at the tall Whitebeard!

Whitebeard narrowed his eyes, stretched out his palm, and made a tugging motion towards Green Bull's body, as if the air was being torn apart by his fingers, leaving scratches!

Green Bull's tree-like body was pulled over directly!

Whitebeard's fist glowed with a white aura as he slammed it into Tree Man's head. The vines covering Green Bull's body were shattered by the punch, revealing his true form. The Marine Vice Admiral lay prostrate at Whitebeard's feet, bleeding from all seven orifices!

"Lieutenant General Green Bull!"

A group of sailors were taken aback!

If this vice admiral were to sacrifice himself here, the Navy would suffer a great loss. Admiral Aokiji of the Navy Headquarters frowned, and he was about to leave the battlefield with Beckman in an instant, wanting to rush over and rescue Green Bull!

but…

Someone was faster than him!

A thick vine slowly descended from the sky, wrapped around the green bull's body, and, completely ignoring the white-bearded creature beside it, was about to carry the green bull directly into the sky.

"Um?"

The white-bearded man's eyes suddenly turned serious. He looked up at the sky and saw only a dazzling golden light!

"There's something in the sky!"

"That's a gold ship!"

A navy man stared in utter shock at the golden ark in the sky!

Everyone on Enies Lobby instinctively looked up at the golden ark flying overhead, and at the vine extending down from it!

As the golden ark appeared, its golden light slowly shone on Enies Lobby, captivating everyone with its dazzling brilliance.

"That is..."

"The Konoha Pirates' ship!"

The moment Shanks saw the Golden Ark appear, his expression changed drastically. He knew the Konoha Pirates' vehicle better than anyone else!

The Golden Ark, a proverb!

Once upon a time on Skypiea, the Konoha Pirates piloted this golden ark and orchestrated a hunting game against the Celestial Dragons, causing a complete upheaval in the global landscape!

now…

They actually came here too!

Wherever the Konoha Pirates appear, they will inevitably cause a huge uproar and create terrifying waves that will change the entire sea situation!

Red-Haired Shanks didn't care about anything else. He immediately gripped his rapier, Griffin, and watched with a solemn expression as the golden ark slowly floated down from the sky...

"The Konoha Pirates' ship!"

The pirates and marines alike became wary!

Especially the Red-Haired Pirates, who had previously fought against the Konoha Pirates, and the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates, who are about to face a challenge!

The Navy is no exception!

Because the Navy, which is under the World Government, and the Konoha Pirates are natural enemies, the Konoha Pirates are terrifying pirates who are dedicated to overthrowing the Celestial Dragons' rule!

"They want to kidnap Lieutenant General Green Bull!"

A group of naval officers immediately became anxious!

The naval officers began shouting to their soldiers to prepare to set up cannons and shoot down the golden ark, determined not to allow a single vice admiral to fall into enemy hands!

"Don't act impulsively..."

Aokiji stopped the group's actions. He glanced at the golden ark in the sky, then looked at Vice Admiral Akihara Kagura, who was still standing quietly not far away, but he did not see the slightest surprise in Akihara Kagura's eyes.

Obviously...

Kagura Akihara already knew that the Konoha Pirates would come to Enies Lobby.

"What are they here for?"

Ben Beckman didn't have time to think too much. He leaped down to Shanks' side, surveying the golden ark slowly descending from the sky: "Here to create another big event?"

"..."

Red-haired Shanks slowly shook his head, his voice heavy: "I don't know, but for this ocean, they don't even need to do anything; just their presence in one place is already a major event..."

Yes.

The Konoha Pirates don't need to do anything.

The mere appearance of this pirate crew in any one place is already a world-shaking event, with the entire world watching their every move!

Mary Geoise.

Saint Satan and Saint Nasshoulang both looked extremely grim.

Because they were afraid that the Konoha Pirates would cause any more trouble.

"Those guys..."

Nasujiro stared in astonishment at the golden ark falling on the video phone, a hint of panic and unease creeping into his eyes: "How did it suddenly appear again..."

"them…"

"What exactly is their purpose...?"

Satan Saint's brows furrowed involuntarily.

The World Government is powerless to deal with the Konoha Pirates, especially since the Marine Admirals are scattered in various places. The combined Marine forces on Enies Lobby are not even capable of putting up any decent resistance!

Compared to the panic on the side of the world government…

The Whitebeard Pirates are undoubtedly the least familiar to the Konoha Pirates.

All the pirate crews on the Moby Dick looked up, watching the golden ark land in front of them, watching the vine that had wrapped around the green bull retract, and everyone subconsciously raised their weapons, ready for battle.

The whole world knows that among the four Yonko pirate crews on the entire sea, only the Whitebeard Pirates have not yet fought against the Konoha Pirates. However, everyone also knows that the two powerful pirate crews are destined to clash.

Just like the Roger Pirates, Whitebeard Pirates, and Golden Lion Pirates many years ago, powerful pirate crews are bound to clash!

man…

I never want to be subordinate to anyone.

"A flying golden pirate ship?"

"Under Shiki the Golden Lion's command?"

Douglas Barrett had been imprisoned deep within Impel Down and had never received any intelligence. He had no idea who was on the Golden Ark. He simply saw that the Golden Ark could fly and float, and subconsciously associated it with an enemy from his memory.

"no…"

Red-haired Shanks looked at his predecessor and felt compelled to educate him about the changed times. He gazed at the golden ark about to sink into the sea and solemnly introduced the identities of the people on board.

"other side…"

"They are the most dangerous pirate crew on this sea."

"Even though they've only been on the high seas for less than a year, they've already created several major events that have shocked the world, and even killed three of the Five Elders..."

"!!!"

Douglas Barrett's eyes lit up, and he immediately became interested: "Oh? They sound pretty strong. You've improved a lot, kid. Have you fought them before?"

"..."

Shanks fell silent immediately.

After saying that, Douglas Barrett even glanced at Garp beside him: "Hey, Garp, have you ever fought them?"

"I have lost."

Karp clenched his fists.

He once fought against Madara Uchiha, the vice-captain of the Konoha Pirates, back in Alabasta, and was defeated by Madara single-handedly…

"We lost to them too..."

Shanks' expression was complex. He still remembered the scene on Skypiea where the entire Red-Haired Pirates were defeated by Madara Uchiha alone, and how the World Government's top-tier forces were ruthlessly crushed by the captain and first mate of the Konoha Pirates...

"Losing..."

"It's terrible."

Shanks's rapier slumped to the ground, his face showing a hint of dejection. As he recalled that battle, the middle-aged man seemed to transform back into the apprentice pirate he once was on Roger's crew: "Those guys were strong, even stronger than Captain Roger in my opinion. During the battle, there was absolutely no hope of victory..."

Yes…

There was absolutely no hope of victory.

Madara Uchiha alone was strong enough to single-handedly suppress two Yonko and a Yonko pirate crew; and when the captain and first mate of the Konoha Pirates teamed up, their strength was simply beyond one dimension!

"Now that I think back to the day we fought..."

Red-haired Shanks' gaze was fixed on the Golden Ark, his hand unconsciously tightening around the hilt of his sword. His eyes grew unusually heavy, as if he were recalling his past moments of weakness: "I almost admire my past self back then, actually being able to wield a sword and fight them..."

That statue…

The terrifying Susanoo wooden puppet!

With the combined efforts of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, the Five Elders of the World Government, the Fleet Admiral, two Marine Admirals, one of the Four Emperors of the Sea, and Kagura Akihara, a Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit user, were all easily defeated by the enemy!

"Even stronger than Roger!"

Douglas Barrett's interest was immediately piqued; a fighting spirit flashed in his eyes, and he clenched his fists. "Sounds like a worthy opponent..."

"!!!"

Shanks immediately looked at his senior, trying to warn him, "Wait, Mr. Barrett, the opponent's strength is not what you think..."

In Shanks' memory, Douglas Bullet was the "monster" of the Roger Pirates, who always liked to fight Captain Roger and could even turn the tide of the seas by himself. However, the era in which the Konoha Pirates appeared was different from the past!

era…

Things have changed a long time ago!

The ceiling of combat power in this ocean may have already changed!

Douglas Barrett ignored Shanks' attitude, a big smile spread across his face, and he slowly spread his arms, instantly releasing an arrogant Conqueror's Haki!

In the past, Douglas Bullet was the right-hand man of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger. His strength was almost on par with the Pirate King's, and he didn't even take Roger's orders seriously, let alone a trainee pirate on the ship back then!

Moreover…

Douglas Barrett believes he has become strong enough!

Even in Impel Down, he never stopped training himself, constantly pushing himself to the limit. After leaving Impel Down, he wanted to have a big battle to test the top combat power of this era!

original…

Douglas Barrett has his eye on Whitebeard.

However, given Whitebeard's advanced age and the fact that he seemed to have come to rescue Ace and Marco while still fighting the Marines, he decided to wait until the chaotic battle at Enies Lobby was over before challenging Whitebeard...

but…

Another worthy challenge has arrived!

Douglas Barrett's Conqueror's Haki surged forth instantly, and under his precise control, it charged towards the Konoha Pirates' Golden Ark!

On the Golden Ark.

A group of people were watching the figures below from above.

Madara Uchiha immediately sensed the terrifying Conqueror's Haki. A hint of interest flashed in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Um?"

"Looks like there's a really motivated guy here..."

"snort!"

Boa Hancock immediately stepped forward, ready to unleash her Conqueror's Haki to clash with Douglas Bullet's: "Just because you possess Conqueror's Haki, you think you can challenge Konoha?!"

The Konoha Pirates have no shortage of Conqueror's Haki users. Apart from Orochimaru and Sasori, everyone on the ship possesses Conqueror's Haki!

"You are no match for him..."

Kaguya Otsutsuki softly called back Hancock, who was about to make a move.

"Let me do it!"

Madara Uchiha grinned, and his Conqueror's Haki was released in an instant!

Two terrifying Conqueror's Haki clashed together, and the weather above Enies Lobby changed instantly once again. The two Haki clashed repeatedly, clearly distinct, with black and red arcs of electricity flashing between them!

Sky…

It seemed to crack open at that moment!

however…

Madara Uchiha's Conqueror's Haki is clearly superior!

Madara Uchiha's Conqueror's Haki quickly prevailed in the clash of Haki, and the Haki-infused clouds in the sky slowly drifted to the other side...

"Ha ha ha ha…"

"Someone with even stronger domineering aura than me..."

Douglas Barrett didn't care about losing to Conqueror's Haki; instead, his interest grew even stronger. He no longer concealed his fighting spirit and leaped from the ground like a cannonball towards the Golden Ark!

At the same time, Madara Uchiha's figure flew out from the Golden Ark and rushed directly towards Douglas Barrett. The two clashed fiercely in mid-air!

Black and red arcs of electricity flickered…

The two men's fists collided suddenly!

A terrifying shockwave swept across the sky above Enies Lobby!

The towering Tower of Justice on Judicial Island trembled violently at that moment, and many people on the island were instantly knocked to the ground by the impact!

Nobody expected this...

Besides the Whitebeard Pirates, there are actually other people on the high seas who dare to challenge the Konoha Pirates, and even possess such formidable strength!

"That guy..."

The white-bearded man's eyes were fixed on Douglas Barrett in the air, and a smile suddenly appeared on his lips: "Almost catching up with Roger..."

"but…"

Whitebeard's gaze then fell upon Uchiha Madara.

The white-bearded man's smile vanished the moment he saw Uchiha Madara, his fists clenched instinctively, and a fighting spirit surged within him, making him want to join the battle: "That guy... might even be stronger than Roger..."

however…

Whitebeard's fighting spirit quickly subsided.

The most powerful man in the world no longer looked at Madara Uchiha, but instead looked at the golden ark of the Konoha Pirates, staring at Hashirama Senju on the golden ark.

That is…

The captain of the Konoha Pirates...

A person who can convince and follow a powerful figure like Madara Uchiha...

This kind of person...

What kind of beliefs do they hold?

And what terrifying power it can unleash!

Hashirama Senju's gaze remained fixed on Madara Uchiha. As if sensing a gaze, his eyes slowly moved and landed on Whitebeard.

"Ha ha…"

Good afternoon...

Hashirama Senju greeted the white-bearded man with a smile, radiating kindness that made him seem like a harmless man.

"Gurala la la..."

The white-bearded man's smile deepened.

This guy…

He is a man of pure faith!

Whitebeard immediately recognized the qualities in Hashirama Senju: a king with unwavering conviction who could unite the will of his companions, just like the Pirate King Gol D. Roger of yesteryear!

"Roger..."

"It's a pity you're already dead..."

A hint of nostalgia, even regret, flashed across the white-bearded man's face: "You have no idea how interesting the ocean is now, much more interesting than it was in our time..."

I didn't originally intend to write about Glass Barrett...

This person was someone who challenged Roger; he's a character from the movie.

but…

This guy appeared in the main story...

On God's Island, this guy fought alongside Roger, and Shiki the Golden Lion also appeared in the Rocks Pirates...

Douglas Barrett's performance in the movie was also impressive; he single-handedly overwhelmed nine Supernovas, demonstrating combat power on par with Admirals and Yonko...

Luffy can only get a chance to touch him in the movies...

I'll update again tomorrow.

It snowed today, and my stomach has been hurting for no reason. I was planning to write 6,000 words in this chapter, sorry...
