The Pirate Princess Becomes Queen

Both giants were enormous, standing twenty meters tall. The blue demon, Dongli, was relatively thinner, with a beard that reached his lower abdomen. He held a longsword in his right hand and a round shield in his left.

The Red Demon Brogy was very muscular, with a large axe in his right hand and a round shield in his left.

The two giants roared repeatedly, hacking and slashing with their swords and axes. Each impact of their weapons created a gust of wind, and no tree taller than a meter could be seen within their fighting range.

"What is that sound?"

"Is it some kind of ferocious beast?"

The bounty hunters looked at each other, and saw fear and worry in their companions' eyes.

Vivi never mentioned the giants. Her explanation was very much in line with the prevailing sentiment of the time: on the surface, she was conducting reconnaissance for Baroque Works, but in reality, she was searching for treasure with ulterior motives. The wine was meant to get the beasts guarding the treasure drunk.

The bounty hunters previously thought it made perfect sense; this desolate island, resembling a primeval forest, perfectly fit their preconceived notions of where treasure was buried. But now, they could vaguely hear the clanging of metal and the shouts of giants. What was going on?

Vivi jumped down from the height and then winked at Karu the duck.

Karu, with his little dog Xiuxiu on his back, sped off like a windmill, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.

In the next second, Vivi unleashed her Conqueror's Haki on the numerous bounty hunters!

Without uttering a sound, the fifteen men fell to the ground in unison, like wheat being harvested.

Despite Vivi's attempts to control the range of her Haki, countless beasts of all sizes were still stunned. The Blue Oni Dorry and the Red Oni Brogy, who were fighting in the distance, stopped fighting on their own and looked over with some strange expressions.

“What a spirited human girl! ... Judging from your appearance, you didn’t just happen to be passing by, did you come here specifically to find us?” said the long-bearded, Guan Yu-like Qing Gui Dongli.

Vivi took a step forward and stopped ten meters in front of the giant. Then she looked up and examined the two of them.

She doesn't have Luffy's charisma, but she does have leverage to gain the other party's trust.

"Skinny face, long beard, you must be Aoki Tori?"

"Correct."

"Fat face, burly build, you must be Red Demon Brogy?"

"it's me!"

Chapter Forty-Three: Hegemony!

Compared to the calm and collected Blue Oni Dorry, the Red Oni Brogy was clearly easier to talk to.

Without much small talk, Weiwei got straight to the point, using the time-traveler's special skill: creating a friend out of thin air.

“I have a friend named Jaina. She met two Titans on Enies Lobby, the World Government’s island of Libya. According to them, they came from Elbaf and were looking for Dorry the Blue Oni and Brogy the Red Oni. The World Government said that Dorry the Blue Oni and Brogy the Red Oni have been imprisoned. They said that if the two Titans my friend knows guard the gates for the government for a hundred years, they will release Dorry the Blue Oni and Brogy the Red Oni.”

Upon hearing this news, Blue Oni Dorry was stunned for a moment, while Red Oni Brogy reacted more violently, brandishing his battle axe: "Nonsense! When were we imprisoned by the World Government? Our Giant Warrior Pirates could never be defeated by those insignificant humans!"

Vivi's expression remained unchanged: "But the two giants my friend knows believe the World Government's claims and have been guarding the gates for the World Government for fifty years. If nothing unexpected happens, they will continue to guard the gates for another fifty years."

Seeing his people being mocked like this, Qinggui Dongli's face turned very ugly.

However, he and the Red Demon Brogy exchanged a glance and both suppressed their anger.

Giants have long lifespans, and they fought for a full hundred years on this dilapidated island called Little Garden to determine who was the strongest.

When their own people were deceived, they were only angry at the despicable face of the World Government, but they were indifferent to the fifty years of life that their people had wasted. Long lifespan means they can do whatever they want!

Aoki Tori thought for a moment and said, "Then tell those two giants our news. Tell them that we will go back after we have decided who will win."

"Let's settle this today, Dorry, for the sake of Elbaf!" Brogy shouted, slamming his axe against his shield.

"I will be the victor!" the Blue Demon responded, swinging his greatsword and slashing down.

Seeing that the two had started another round of fighting, Vivi hurriedly whistled to call over her pet duck and little white dog. They had come all this way just for this, right? Don't waste it, start picking them up!

"The task is for fifteen minutes."

The battle between the Blue Demon Tori and the Red Demon Broki was very intense, but the rewards were significantly less than those from the Golden Lion Gift Pack.

Their martial arts skills are decent, but not top-tier.

鸭子卡鲁捡到的光点分别是“剑术+7”“战斧+9”“强健+13”“坚韧+12”“强化皮肤+29”“强化力量+6”。

"Strength" and "tenacity" are common skills seen in many pirates, but "enhanced skin" and "enhanced strength" really caught Vivi's eye.

For her, "Strength" and "Resilience" are more like skills she uses for regular physical training, like practicing the Five Animal Frolics. Once you finish practicing, you increase your physical attributes a little, and that's it. You can practice again next time and increase your physical attributes a little more. "Strengthening Skin" and "Strengthening Strength" are completely different. These are passive skills. Once you add them, they are always there.

The "strength enhancement" caused her bones to crackle and pop. As her strength increased dramatically, her height also increased by two centimeters, from 169cm to 171cm. As she grew taller, her skin experienced a noticeable tearing sensation, but with the "skin enhancement" effect, the tearing sensation quickly disappeared.

She clenched her fist and found that her strength had increased by about 10% compared to before. She also touched her skin and found that its resilience had been greatly enhanced.

Her Armament Haki wasn't nearly enough to cover her entire body; she was quite satisfied with the enhanced skin providing defense. The word "life" had no homophones in the dictionary. What did this mean? The dictionary subtly told everyone that life is only once, and no matter when or where, one must protect their own life. Vivi understood this essence and always paid great attention to survival skills.

After the two giants finished fighting, Vivi brought out the drinks that the bounty hunters had brought, and everyone sat down to continue their discussion about the World Government...

Dongli grew angrier as he spoke, slamming his fist on a nearby rock: "Those guys are all liars! Not a single one of them is any good, just a bunch of despicable scoundrels!"

"We should use our strongest moves to smash down the gates of Enies Lobby! Let those guys see the power of the giants!" Vivi nodded vigorously, clenching her fists as she spoke indignantly.

As if suddenly remembering something, she asked casually, "Jaina heard about an extremely powerful technique from her two giant friends, some kind of giant spear technique? Do you know that technique?"

Dorry and Brogy laughed heartily: "Your friend is mistaken, it's not the Spear of Elbaf, it's the Spear of Elbaf! Us? Heh, we are the strongest warriors of the giant race, of course we can!"

It's clear that these two giant pirates from a hundred years ago had no goodwill towards the World Government. It's just that they were more determined to settle things once and for all; otherwise, they would have definitely left the island and caused a huge uproar.

The two men had clearly not drunk alcohol for years, and their cravings had been rekindled. They started talking about what they were most interested in, and Donley glanced at Brogy: "Hey, Brogy, do you still know how to use the Elbaf Spear?"

"Of course I can! I am the strongest warrior in Elbaf!"

"I, Dongli, am the strongest warrior! Come, let's settle this once and for all!"

The two giants fought again... Fifteen minutes later, they performed the giant race's ultimate technique for Vivi: the Elbaf Spear!

The two stood on either side of each other, about thirty meters apart, and then began to gather their strength.

Donley raised his longsword, and Broki gripped his battle axe. Their spirits were at their peak, their muscles bulging, and their eyes were fixed on a huge rock a hundred meters high in the distance.

The two giants knew each other inside and out, and their cooperation was seamless. Suddenly, they shouted and swung their longswords and battle axes down with force.

"A hegemonic nation!"

"A hegemonic nation!"

The two forces of the same origin converged and transformed into a pure white beam of energy. It passed through the rock at an extremely high speed, leaving a hole with a diameter of over a hundred meters. Then, like a shooting star, it flew diagonally off the island and quickly disappeared from Weiwei's sight.

She was a little dumbfounded.

The power of the Overlord was far greater than she had imagined! After seeing the "Elbaf Spear: Overlord" that the duck had retrieved, she was even more certain of this.

Through the skill points, she can see the giant's experience, skills, and power exertion when using "Domination," but she cannot visualize it on the panel. In other words, this move is currently unlearnable.

This situation didn't occur during "Lion. Thousand Cut Valley," so this is truly the first time I've encountered a skill that can't be learned.

Was it because her swordsmanship level was insufficient? Or her strength? Or perhaps her physique was unsuitable, preventing her from using it alone? Several possibilities flashed through her mind in an instant.

Chapter Forty-Four Timely Commission

After using "Overlord," the giants were clearly somewhat exhausted, showing that this move was a great burden for them. Vivi put aside her doubts and decided to think about "Elbaf Spear: Overlord" later. Right now, the most important thing was to continue drinking and building relationships.

They drank while cursing the world government.

Vivi spoke up at the right moment, trying to persuade the two giants to leave the island, but the two giants were determined to fight to the death. They were so determined that even if the sky fell, they would still fight. It seemed that there was nothing more important in the world than a duel.

"Okay, I'll pass the message on to my friend and have her tell those two giants."

Honestly, Vivi didn't want them to cause trouble outside. The two giants could just fight here, twice a day, for three years! Think of all the attribute points she could collect! This was a stable high-level spawn point!

Karu can control the puppy Xiuxiu. Vivi believes that the panel seen through the duck's eyes is definitely different from what she sees. One piece of evidence is that it can schedule tasks for the puppy Xiuxiu, a function that Vivi doesn't have at all.

While the two giants were drinking, a man, a duck, and a dog engaged in friendly negotiations. In the end, Karu gave Xiuxiu a timed task: to collect attributes twice a day, at 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, for 15 minutes each time. The collected attributes would be automatically received remotely by Karu. At other times, the dog Xiuxiu could roam freely in the area occupied by the two giants.

If the giants are fighting outside of the designated time, then you can only accept your bad luck if you can't pick it up.

The timing of the giants' fights is completely uncontrollable.

At this stage, we can only make an estimate, then try it out for one or two months, and then analyze the giants' behavior patterns before making adjustments.

Vivi clicked her tongue and patted Duck Karu's head: "Sigh, this cheat code looks like it's yours, it's actually mine, but in the end it's still yours!"

The Blue Demon Tori and the Red Demon Broki, who were drinking, had no idea what the other two were up to and didn't care.

Vivi and the two giants worked together to build a wooden house for the puppy Xiuxiu, similar to the pet shop in Orange Town. The puppy would rest there when it was free. Vivi also left behind a bunch of things she had brought, such as plush toys, small balls, and chew sticks.

Karu the duck also gave the puppy the red Christmas hat that Vivi had knitted for it and promised that they would come back to visit the puppy in two months at most.

Before leaving, Vivi entrusted her puppy Xiuxiu to the two giants. The two giants were at the top of the food chain on the island, and their activity area was very safe. She could take the puppy for a walk or play with it whenever she had free time.

She still used the excuse that she kept the puppy for the two giants her friend knew.

"I'll leave the Den Den Mushi behind. If anything happens to those two giants my friend knows, or if you decide to fight and want to leave the island, you can contact me via Shushu."

Vivi solemnly handed the Den Den Mushi to the puppy for safekeeping, and the puppy nodded vigorously, indicating that it was willing to act as the bridge of communication.

The two giants also thought this method was feasible. The Den Den Mushi was too small and fragile, and they were worried that it would be destroyed in battle if they handed it over directly to them. Now that the little white dog was keeping it, they felt more at ease.

Weiwei quietly told them Xiuxiu's story again, focusing on Xiuxiu's experience of guarding her deceased owner's pet shop all these years.

"This little guy is quite interesting. I'll take care of Xiuxiu! Snap snap snap!" Red Demon Brogy grinned and agreed to take care of the puppy himself.

Vivi took out a camera and handed it to Karu, so that the duck could take a group photo of herself, the puppy Xiuxiu, and the two giants to show that we are all a family.

After drinking, Donley and Brogy went back to sleep. Duck Karu gave his underlings a lecture, and then Vivi woke up a group of bounty hunters who had been stunned in the jungle.

"A giant beast just passed by! It was terrifying! That beast stunned us with its sheer presence and even stole our drinks! Let's get off the island quickly; we can worry about the treasure later!"

Some people doubted her story, but everyone was confused and disoriented. At night, the roars of giant beasts could be heard from time to time in the small garden. Under the influence of the atmosphere of fear, their IQ dropped sharply. Seeing that Weiwei was leading the way to run away, the herd mentality drove most people to follow her. Only a few who had doubts dared not stay. In the end, everyone hurriedly boarded the ship, weighed anchor, set sail, and left the small garden island.

Back at Whiskey Hill, Vivi submitted a report to Ms. All Sunday stating that "a large number of prehistoric giants exist on the island, and no traces of human presence have been found so far." Since Den Den Mushi have a fax function, Vivi also sent over a few photos of the primitive landscape. After receiving her mission reward, the reconnaissance mission was considered complete.

She had recently completed a number of tasks, and Vivi and Ms. All Sunday had become quite familiar with each other, at least on the phone. At the end of the call, she asked a question.

"Ms. All Sunday, I've heard you've been to many places?"

Nico Robin on the other end of the Den Den Mushi paused for a moment, neither saying yes nor no: "What? Ms. Wednesday, is there something you need?"

"I have a personal matter to discuss. Do you know where Torrance is? There seems to be a strange current near that town. The current has brought together a lot of debris from the sea surface, eventually forming a town that floats on the sea."

Vivi's desired Devil Fruit is located in this town. She doesn't need to fight any boss; as long as she finds this town, she's confident she can obtain the Devil Fruit. Unfortunately, the town is too small, and Alabasta's information channels are limited. She only knows that the town is in the latter half of the Grand Line, in the New World, but she doesn't know its exact location or which country it belongs to.

Nico Robin, on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, thought about it seriously. She had read a lot of books and traveled to many places. As a fugitive who had been hunted by the World Government since she was eight years old, hiding in nooks and crannies every day, she had impressions of many remote towns and islands.

She said, "When I was in the Western Sea, I read a travelogue that said... there seemed to be a small island in the Kingdom of Prodens formed by the impact of ocean currents. Later, some survivors settled there. As for whether it was called Torrance Town, I don't know."
