Pirate King: I'm determined to be the King of Sons-in-Law!

Chapter 342 School Trip? A Suicide Scheme!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Countless pirate ships burst through the bubbles and rained down on the island. In an instant, a dense swarm of pirates charged and shouted, rushing toward the location of the treasure.

The captains also started fighting.

"Damn it, there are too many people!"

The three captains climbed out of the mud pit and, without bothering to search for Yamato, immediately rushed towards the location of the treasure.

There are too many pirate crews vying for it. More important than fighting each other is obtaining the treasure. If you are even a step too slow, the treasure may be stolen by someone else.

Just then, a stream of light descended from the sky!

"boom!!!"

Thick smoke and dust enveloped the three of them!

"Cough cough cough, what's going on!"

The three men covered their mouths and noses and coughed. After the smoke cleared, they saw the familiar white-haired woman and were furious.

"It's you!"

"Hahaha, I'm Yamato!"

Yamato raised his spiked club, pointing it at the three men, his fighting spirit high: "You look strong. I'll be your opponent!"

"hold head high?"

The three exchanged a glance and simultaneously snorted coldly.

"Both of you step back, I can handle this by myself!"

"I'll handle this woman!"

"I told you, if you dare to order me around again, I'll kill you both!"

The familiar scene played out once again.

"Hahaha, stop arguing, just come at me all at once!"

Yamato's face was beaming with a spirited smile, his body leaning slightly forward, poised to strike, exuding an astonishing aura of dominance.

"I am coming!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a sonic boom cloud exploded around Yamato, and his body transformed into a bolt of lightning, instantly traversing dozens of meters to appear in front of the three captains.

The spiked club, crackling with lightning and Conqueror's Haki, slammed down on Kid, who was positioned at the center, without hesitation.

"Thunder! Roar! Eight Trigrams!!!"

"What?!"

Kidd's pupils dilated as a powerful sense of impending death gripped every cell in his body, and his robotic arms instinctively crossed in front of him!

"Clang!!!"

With a deafening roar, without a moment's delay, the mechanical arm crossed in front of him shattered into pieces, followed by a spiked club slamming into his chest.

"Snap!"

All the ribs were shattered!

Kidd's mouth was full of blood, his eyes rolled back, and his body flew backward like an arrow, crashing through several small hills.

"boom!!!"

At the edge of the island, the mountain peaks collapsed and crumbled amidst a deafening roar.

Only then did Luffy and Law react, looking at the woman beside them in shock, their scalps tingling.

If they had been the targets of the attack, they would have suffered the same severe injuries as Kid, with no chance of escape.

Who is this woman?!

"Kid!!!"

The Kid Pirates arrived late.

On the other side, the treasure location.

"Neigh!"

Speed ​​folded his wings and landed on the pile of treasure.

The hilltop was piled high with gold, as well as a large quantity of jewels, swords, and other treasures, and there were dozens of treasure chests of various sizes.

"Where?!"

Speed ​​quickly searched the treasure chests; the pirates would be here soon, and he had to find his target as quickly as possible.

"Huh? What's this?!"

She found a treasure chest and was shocked when she opened it.

It contains a permanent record pointer!

According to the organizers, these treasures came from Roger, and there is only one possibility that Roger could have deliberately left behind as a permanent record pointer.

Laugh Tale!

"Hahaha, the treasure is mine!"

Just then, a red-nosed creature crawled out from under the cliff.

Bucky laughed triumphantly.

While the other pirates rushed down the hillside towards the treasure, he chose to climb up the mountainside below the treasure. With no one competing with him, he was indeed the first to reach the treasure.

However.

"Huh? A centaur?"

Why are there centaurs on the treasure pile?

No, they're ability users!

Speed ​​glanced back at Bucky, thought for a moment, and casually tossed the treasure chest in his hand to Bucky.

Miss Yamato is probably not interested in this kind of thing, so it's better to give it up and let it draw the pirates' fire.

The mission is urgent!

Miss Yamato can play around as she pleases, but she must think about her mistress and be reliable, so as to find the Tremor-Tremor Fruit as soon as possible.

With too many competitors, the young lady's position in her husband's family is in jeopardy, and as her subordinate, she is extremely worried!

"You think you can get rid of me with just a treasure chest?"

Bucky hurriedly took the treasure chest, opened it with a disdainful look, and his eyes widened when he saw what was inside.

This is?!

"Hahaha, my little ones, we've found the treasure! Let's go!"

"Follow Captain Bucky!"

Bucky excitedly picked up the treasure chest and ran away with his men. With this thing, he could find the world's greatest treasure!

His flamboyant actions immediately attracted the attention of the other pirates.

"The treasure has been stolen by Bucky the Clown!"

"Damn the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"

"Kill him!"

Without a second thought, the pirates immediately attacked Buggy's crew.

Speed ​​continued searching through the pile of treasure, opening and discarding each chest. When a fruit with what appeared to be cracked surfaces appeared before him, a look of delighted surprise spread across his face.

The result of the tremor!

Eat it and you will gain the strongest power in the world!

Speed ​​immediately closed the treasure chest, hugged it to his chest, and was about to leave the treasure site when suddenly the ground beneath his feet began to shake.

"boom!!!"

With a deafening explosion, the entire island collapsed and cracked, and the floating bubbles burst as well.

The shattered island immediately plummeted to the ground, and the pirates who were fighting and vying for the treasure all lost their footing, screaming as they fell into the lake on the ground.

"What's going on?!"

Nobody knows what happened.

"Wow!"

Yamato plummeted to the ground, his claws outstretched, completely forgetting how to react, until a white figure rushed over and caught him.

White feathers drifted across the sky.

Yamato hugged Pegasus with delight.

"Speed, you've come at the perfect time."

"Miss Yamato, hoo hoo!"

Speed ​​turned around happily and handed the treasure chest hanging around his neck to Yamato.

"This is what Lord Loya wanted."

"Send me down, and then give this to Loya."

"clear!"

Speed ​​dropped Yamato to the ground and immediately flapped his wings and flew away. The thing was too hot to handle, and he could only feel at ease if he delivered it as soon as possible.

Yamato remained on the island. She had just sensed an unusually powerful aura, and if she wasn't mistaken, it was the one that shattered the island.

Fighting spirit ignites!

In the central lake, the fallen islands formed a piece of land, and as the turmoil subsided, the pirates recovered.

"What exactly happened?"

"What are the organizers doing?!"

"I almost died!"

The supernovas grumbled and cursed. They were mostly superhumans, and falling into the water meant certain death. Even if they were rescued by their companions, the feeling of choking on water was unpleasant.

A burly man dressed in special military uniform appeared!

Douglas Barrett!

"It was him!"

The pirates who recognized Barrett broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

"I've heard the Worst Generation is incredibly strong, so let me prove it to you. After I take down you and the Marines, the next ones to face the Four Emperors will be next!"

Barrett grinned, and a surge of violent Conqueror's Haki erupted, instantly engulfing the entire island!

"Thump! Thump!"

The pirates foamed at the mouth and collapsed one after another; fewer than a hundred remained conscious despite the shock to their will.

"The domineering aura of Conqueror's Haki!"

"That's amazing!"

"Like a demon!"

The worst generation felt a chill run down their spines. Just as they were thinking about how to deal with it, a beautiful figure appeared above Barrett.

"I'll be your opponent!"

Yamato spun his spiked club and slammed it down on Barrett with all his might.

"Frosty Sky - Naraku!"

With a loud thud, Barrett's entire body collapsed to the ground, the intense pain leaving him somewhat dazed.

Where did this girl come from?

Barrett looked up, a trickle of blood sliding down his forehead. He touched the bloodstains on his forehead, his eyes bloodshot.

"Good! Very good! Excellent!"

Barrett laughed heartily.

He must defeat the brats of the Worst Generation, defeat the Navy's Buster Call, defeat the Four Emperors, and defeat all the strongmen. Only in this way can he prove that he has surpassed Roger.

The western waters of the island.

"Neigh!"

A white pegasus descended from the sky, landing in front of Loya. It handed Loya the treasure chest and said urgently, "Lord Loya, this is what Miss asked me to give you."

"Thanks."

Loya took the treasure chest, opened it, and his gaze sharpened.

"Lord Loya."

Speed ​​briefly recounted what had happened on the island, pawing restlessly.

Loya smiled slightly.

"Go."

"Yes."

Speed ​​left immediately, as she needed to hurry and support Miss Yamato. Although she couldn't be of much help in combat, she was indispensable in other matters.

Sigh, she's worried herself sick over this family.

Loya watched Speed ​​leave, then went into the cabin, placed the treasure chest on the table, and frowned in thought.

He hadn't expected it to go so smoothly.

Although there aren't many skilled fighters on the island, Yamato is more than capable of teaching the Supernovas a lesson, but Barrett's generosity is somewhat unexpected.

Laugh Tale's Perpetual Pointer and Tremor-Tremor Fruit, either one is a world-shaking existence.

Especially permanent pointers!

Obtaining the Tremor Fruit only means gaining the power to reach the pinnacle; the prerequisite is that one must be strong enough.

There are many powerful abilities in this world, such as the Op-Op Fruit, the Slow-Slow Fruit, and the Rewind Fruit, among others.

You can't become the strongest just by having ability.

But permanent pointers are different; with one you can go to Laugh Tale, and there are almost no requirements for your own strength.

To be willing to use these two treasures as bait in order to fight—is that confidence or arrogance?

Loya went to the window and looked towards Delta Island, where a mountain-sized monster appeared in the center of the island.

Judging from the looks of it, the battle is quite intense.

"A pure battle maniac, huh?"

Loya shook his head slightly.

Barrett's fate was sealed; even with power comparable to that of a Yonko, he would find it difficult to leave alive.

Either die in battle or return to Level 6 of Impel Down.

There is no other possibility.

He needs to consider other issues.

Loya pondered for a moment, then picked up a Den Den Mushi to contact the Five Elders.

"Kachcha".

"I am Loya, and I have obtained the Tremor-Tremor Fruit."

"Well done, Loya!"

The Five Elders raised their voices slightly, clearly showing some excitement.

Even they yearn for the Tremor-Tremor Fruit; they feel most secure when this level of power is in the hands of their own people.

Satan urged, "Loya, immediately send the Tremor Fruit back to the Holy Land."

"I'm currently locked in a standoff with the Beasts Pirates and can't leave for the time being. Besides, I really had a lot of trouble getting my hands on this."

Loya resolutely refused.

What a joke! How could he easily give away something that's in his hands? If he didn't have a need for it, he would definitely steal it.

The Den Den Mushi fell silent.

Inside the Hall of Power, the five elders all frowned.

Is Loya trying to extort benefits?

Obtaining the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is indeed a great achievement, and even if Loya hadn't asked for it, they would have given him a reward.

Loya, holding the Den Den Mushi, said with a smug expression, "Five Elders, I have a small suggestion. I wonder if you would be interested?"

"Hmm? What suggestion?"

The five elders showed expressions of interest.

Loya smiled broadly: "If nothing unexpected happens, the Celestial Dragons' group school trip should be held after this year's World Conference, right?"

"."

The five elders were somewhat taken aback.

The school trip, an event held every three years by the Celestial Dragons, is actually a "slaughter contest of indigenous people" held to plunder resources.

Because of the God Valley incident, they had considerable concerns about the safety of "school trips," which led to a sharp decrease in the number of "school trips" over the next few decades.

Besides concerns about safety, there is another important reason for reducing "study tours": the number of member states and non-member states has reached a balance.

Maintaining balance is the foundation of world stability.

However, in recent years, the number of member states has decreased rapidly due to the reckless actions of the revolutionary army, which has seriously disrupted the balance.

The current global situation necessitates another "study tour" to artificially reduce the number of non-member states.

In fact, they were planning to hold a long-awaited "study trip" after this world conference, and had already chosen a country.

South China Sea, the Kingdom of Sobel!

According to intelligence, the Kingdom of Sobel is highly unlikely to be able to pay the Heavenly Gold this year, and it seems to have connections with the Revolutionary Army.

If the intelligence is true, then they wouldn't mind making an example of someone to scare others.

The five elders exchanged glances. What surprised them was not the "school trip" itself, but the suggestion of Loya.

Saint Satan asked in a deep voice, "Loya, what are your thoughts on school trips?"

"Lord Sartan."

Loya calmly retorted, "Do you remember how many ants you've stepped on or how many slices of bread you've eaten so far?"

"."

A perfect answer!

The Five Elders smiled, very satisfied with Loya's attitude.

Loya's eyes sparkled with amusement as he said, "For this school trip, I'd like to offer the Tremor-Tremor Fruit as the prize for first place!"

"good!"

The five elders nodded in agreement, feeling relieved.

Excellent, truly excellent!

According to the tradition of the Holy Land, top-tier Devil Fruits are usually given as prizes in competitions to the Celestial Dragons who possess the necessary abilities.

Among them, the "School Trip" is considered one of the most important competitions within the Celestial Dragons, and heavyweight rewards must be prepared.

It could be said that Loya's thoughts coincided with theirs.

"Oh, by the way, I have a small request."

Loya smirked. "I hope to tell all the Celestial Dragons participating in the school trip that I provided the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, is that alright?"

"sure."

The Five Elders chuckled and agreed, for they understood Loya's thoughts perfectly well.

This kid is an outsider after all, and he's eager to improve his reputation among the Celestial Dragons, which is why he came up with this method.

They can't be stingy!

"Thank you then."

Loya chuckled: "Oh, right, there's one more thing. The Knights of God currently have three vacant positions. Shouldn't we..."

"You little rascal, you've got a real scheme going on!"

The Five Elders couldn't help but chuckle, and reluctantly promised, "For this [School Trip], aside from the Knights of God, the top three participants will become candidates for the Knights of God. After passing the test, they will become official members!"

"Understood, I will try my best!"

Loya patted his chest and assured him.

"Kachcha!"

The Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter) hangs up.

Loya's smile vanished, replaced by an icy gaze.

You're courting death!
