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

Chapter 64 Are you teaching me how to do things?

"For justice!"

The marines roared as they drew their swords and charged towards the fishmen within the encirclement.

"Damn humans!"

With bloodshot eyes, Croobi assumed a karate stance and slapped an approaching marine so hard he coughed up blood and staggered backward.

But even more marines rushed up!

"Die!"

The long sword swung down!

"Clang!"

Croobbi immediately raised his right arm and used the fin on the outside of his shoulder to block the blade. Only his skin was cut open, and a little blood oozed out.

He has triangular fins growing from his elbows to his shoulders, and his skin is covered with fish bones that are as hard as steel. These are his best defensive weapons and his strongest means of attack.

"ha!"

With a twist of his body, his fins easily deflected the marine's blade, and then Croobi roared as he threw a straight punch.

"Fishman Karate - 500-Wall Straight Fist!"

"boom!"

Several marines directly in front of him screamed as they were sent flying backward, knocking down more than ten people. The powerful arm strength shocked the marines.

This is a fishman!

"Summon your courage! The enemy is Croobi, a powerful pirate with a bounty of 900 million Berries and a commanding officer of the Fishman Pirates. He has every right to possess such strength!"

"The injured step back, the rest of you take over!"

"Don't give the enemy time to breathe!"

"Show us the results of your cultivation!"

Without orders, the marines spontaneously organized an attack.

Before the battle, Major Loya had given them detailed intelligence about the enemy. Although the enemy was incredibly powerful, they had an absolute numerical advantage. As long as they exhausted the enemy's strength, victory would surely be theirs.

They've graduated; they're no longer newcomers who need protection!

"For justice!"

"Ooh ooh ooh!!!"

The marines' fearless charge and high morale terrified the fish-men.

"These navy sailors are insane!"

With his face covered in blood, Croobi angrily sent all the surrounding marines flying. The increasing injuries on his body made him consider retreating.

Where did such an elite navy come from?!

"Get away! Don't come any closer!"

"Ouch! I'm hurt!"

"Help me, Brother Croobbi!"

As time went by, one by one, his companions fell down.

Croobi's eyes were bloodshot. He knew that if he didn't do something, not only his comrades but also he would die at the hands of the Navy.

The number of marines is dozens of times that of them!

Pain, exhaustion, fear

Various negative effects were eroding him.

"escape!"

Abandoning their companions and running away!

There's only one way left: if we return to Arlong's Paradise and send the message back, Captain Arlong will surely lead his crew to kill all these marines!

"Get out of my way, human!"

Croobi roared in fury, unleashing its strongest attack!

"Thousand-Layer Tile Fist!"

"boom!"

More than a dozen marines were blasted away by the shockwave generated by the punch!

A gap has appeared in the encirclement!

Croob crossed his arms to protect his vitals, letting the blades slash at him, and charged towards the gap without regard for anything else, his small eyes fixed on the azure coastline ahead.

Once we get there!

"Hey, where are you going!"

Just as he was about to break through the encirclement, a man with his hands in his pockets appeared in front of him, his fluttering cloak of justice extremely eye-catching.

He's the enemy's boss!

Croobbi's pupils contracted, and before he could react, the man's shoe print was embedded in his face!

"Bang!"

With a powerful kick, Croobi was sent flying backward, his face mangled beyond recognition. After tumbling violently on the ground more than a dozen times, he returned to the center of the Navy's encirclement.

All efforts have been in vain!

The next moment, more than a dozen marines rushed up again, plunging their blades into his limbs and pinning him to the ground!

"Take them away!"

"yes!"

The warships quickly sailed into the sea.

Evening, Alon Park.

The companions who had received offerings returned one after another, leaving only Kroobi's group missing. This unusual situation made Arlong uneasy.

"Xiao Ba, go to Zha Zha Village!"

"I'll be back soon."

Ten minutes later, Hachi returned to Arlong Park with a terrified expression: "Something terrible has happened! Crooby has been captured by the Marines!"

"navy?!"

Ah Long paused for a moment, and the image of Colonel Rat subconsciously flashed through his mind, but he quickly dismissed the thought.

That greedy human would never do such a thing, much less have the audacity to harm his own people!

"Which navy are they from?!"

Ah Long's face was contorted with rage.

How dare this lowly race abduct his fellow citizens?

Absolutely unforgivable!

Even if it's the Navy, he'll kill every single one of the guys who kidnapped Croobi. He wants humanity to know the tragic consequences of resisting him!

"Contact the rat immediately!"

"Okay, I know, I'll twist!"

16th Branch.

"What?!"

"Someone has kidnapped a member of the Arlong Pirates?"

"Which idiot did this?!"

Upon receiving the news, Colonel Rat's eyes turned red with anxiety; the Arlong Pirates were his cash cow!

The adjutant, his face contorted in terror, cried out, "Colonel Rat, Ah Long said if they don't find the killer, he'll wipe out Branch 16 completely!"

"Damn it, what does this have to do with us!"

The mouse was filled with uncontrollable terror.

Although they looked down on those filthy, foul-smelling, lowly fishmen, the terrifying power they possessed was undeniable.

If the killer isn't found, Ah Long will really destroy the 16th branch!

"Quickly, investigate immediately!"

"yes!"

The rat was sweating profusely with anxiety, and even considered running away with his possessions. However, to his surprise, his subordinates actually found a clue.

"The Navy of Loguetown!"

According to the investigation by his subordinates, the warships of Rogge Town had appeared near Cocoyasi Village, and they are most likely the murderers.

"Major Rat, we only have half a day. The warships from Loguetown haven't gone far; we should be able to make contact!"

"What are you waiting for? Tell them to release them!"

"Yes, I'll contact them right away!"

Every warship in the navy is equipped with a high-performance Den Den Mushi (snail phone), which can not only contact the branch remotely, but also receive radio waves emitted by Den Den Mushi in the nearby sea area, and even conduct eavesdropping.

"Bru bru~~"

The signal from the Sixteenth Branch was quickly transmitted to the warship Loya was on.

"It's finally here!"

Loya's gaze was icy as he answered the Den Den Mushi.

"This is the Loguetown warship. I am Major Loya of the Loguetown branch!"

"Major Loya, we are from the 16th Branch of the East Blue. We recently received intelligence that you have captured a member of the Arlong Pirates. Is this true?"

"That's right."

Loya responded coldly.

After a brief silence, the officer from Branch 16 said in a deep voice, "Major Loya, Chacha Village falls under the jurisdiction of Branch 16. Your capture of pirates in Chacha Village constitutes an overstepping of boundaries and seriously interferes with Branch 16's operational plan to capture the Arlong Pirates. Please immediately hand over the members of the Arlong Pirates to Branch 16 for processing!"

Well-reasoned, well-founded, and irrefutable!

Loya almost laughed out of anger.

"The Arlong Pirates have been entrenched in Cocoyasi Village for years, and you bunch of useless trash have done absolutely nothing, you're not even as good as dogs, yet you have the nerve to tell us what to do?!"

"Tell your base commander that this arrest operation was ordered by Brigadier General Murak, the highest-ranking officer in Loguetown. Don't you dare interfere with the Brigadier General's orders!"

"Furthermore, the Arlong Pirates members we captured will be executed tomorrow evening at the Loguetown execution plaza!"

"If you want them, come to Loguetown and collect their corpses!"

"Did you understand?!"

"Kachcha—"

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

Colonel Rat's face twitched, and he slammed the table in fury: "That damned Murak, how dare he underestimate me like this!"

"Tell Ah Long the news immediately!"

"I want them all dead!"
