Greed killed two people, and Bucky the Clown, with amazing luck, threw a knife and coincidentally killed the Invisible Absalom!
Frankenstein's monster Hogback was spotted by the tea bearded man, who broke one of his legs with a stick and then killed him with another.
Pirates, along with Gecko Moria's remaining subordinates and bounty hunters not affiliated with Baroque Works, joined the operation to plunder the treasure vault.
Thinking of his mission, Rob Lucci also joined the plundering.
Under the watchful eyes of many, his battle with the demon Oz was witnessed by a large group of people. He couldn't silence them; there were too many witnesses. His identity as a shipwright was no longer valid. He even suspected that Nico Robin had seen him and was suspicious. In order to prevent his companions from being exposed, he didn't plan to return to Alabasta.
All he wants to do now is complete his mission and find Captain John.
He was the strongest, and even now, with his stamina nearly depleted, he still fought against a hundred men single-handedly. After a fierce battle, he found Captain John, who had returned to being a corpse because of the departure of his shadow! Without a word, he carried the corpse and rushed out of Devil's Island. As for what use the corpse was? Sorry, he didn't have time to think about that! ...
Buggy the Clown is definitely no match for Rob Lucci; even if his entire crew attacked together, they couldn't defeat him. However, he has very keen observation skills and found Captain John's nautical journal, which someone left in the treasure vault.
He eagerly flipped through the nautical logbook and quickly found a clue: "The ungrateful Kuro, who stole Oden's food, is cowardly and petty, and has been treacherous for twenty years? Wait a minute, Captain John has been dead for thirty years... This record is from twenty years ago, right? Oh, there's more print below..."
According to the nautical logbook, it had already been owned by three people by the time it came into Bucky's possession. The first person was undoubtedly Captain John, who died thirty years ago. The second person was the one who left behind this poem and the small note, who secretly took the treasure away.
Chapter 137 Rao G's Unexpected Gain
The Pirate Princess Becomes King, Chapter 137: Rao G's Unexpected Gain. "Damn it! Damn it! I'm so angry!" Buggy stomped his feet in frustration.
An illiterate pirate wouldn't understand these things, but he could, and he knew that this strange style of writing was a poem, and he also knew the place the poem referred to, which was Wano Country!
Buggy the Clown felt incredibly conflicted. He just wanted to live a carefree life in the East Blue, casually searching for some treasure. Now, a massive treasure lay in Wano Country in the New World. Should he go or not? Go? Too dangerous! Don't go... and he'd be torn! He'd invested so much effort; giving up now? He truly couldn't bear it...
......
Meanwhile, on a reef three nautical miles from Devil's Island, Rao G., a seventy-year-old member of the Donquixote Family, was reporting intelligence about the island to his boss, Doflamingo.
The old man was experienced and withdrew from the battle early on, but he did not leave. Instead, he deliberately bypassed several main routes and hid in a position that was neither too close nor too far to observe the battlefield and gather intelligence.
“Young Master, I contacted Bellamy, who is still on the island. There are many forces involved in the war, including the Beasts Pirates, the Big Mom Pirates, and some pirate crews from the Grand Line. There is also a very mysterious guy who uses the Six Powers.”
“Fufufufu—a powerful user of the Six Powers? That must be someone from CP9. As for who it is... I need to investigate further, but this shouldn't concern us. Come back, Old G.” Doflamingo said on the other end of the Den Den Mushi.
“Yes, young master, I will…” Rao G suddenly paused, rubbed his old and dim eyes, and carefully identified a group of pirates on the distant sea.
The next moment he was shocked: "There's a group of pirates on the water, and in the hands of one of them, who looks like a leader... I think I saw a Devil Fruit!"
Doflamingo immediately pressed, "What kind of Devil Fruit is it?"
Rao G.'s eyesight was really bad. He put on his reading glasses and looked at it carefully for a long time: "It has the shape of a cantaloupe, the fruit is black, and the outside has a stem that looks like corn husks."
Vivi's family has a Devil Fruit encyclopedia, and since they are also descendants of the Celestial Dragons, Doflamingo naturally has one too. He's also involved in the Devil Fruit business, so he didn't even look at the book; he just thought about it for a moment and then figured out the answer. However, the answer was a bit unbelievable to him.
"That's the Shadow-Shadow Fruit... Gecko Moria looks like he's really dead. Pfft pfft, Crocodile is ruthless! Old G!"
Without him saying a word, Rao G understood his thoughts: "Understood, young master, I will bring the Shadow-Shadow Fruit back to Dressrosa."
"Thank you for your hard work." Doflamingo hung up the phone, and Lao G jumped into the sea. In the time it took to say those few words, the pirate ship carrying the Devil Fruit had already sailed far away.
The old man was brutally beaten by the giant and used his special techniques repeatedly, leaving him severely exhausted. He swam for a few strokes before his back ached, and it took him quite a while to catch up with the giant, even though the distance wasn't far. It was thirty minutes later when he jumped onto the pirate ship, killed several pirates, and stole the Devil Fruit.
Ultimately, martial arts have limitations; they lack wide-area AOE capabilities. Seeing that they couldn't defeat him, the pirates scattered in all directions. One ran east, another west, and one malicious pirate even punctured a hole in the ship before fleeing. The old man had to protect the Devil Fruit in his hand while also giving chase. After a lot of effort, the ship beneath his feet sank, and several pirates escaped. Undoubtedly, the news had been leaked.
Let him run away. With the Don Quixote family name, who would dare to mess with him?
He wasn't in a hurry to soak in the seawater. Since he wasn't a Devil Fruit user, he could stay in the water for a whole day without any problems. It was just that his old leg pain and lumbar disc herniation were more serious problems, and the pain was excruciating.
He strained to see the sea, trying to find another ship, even one passing by, and just to seize it! In this day and age, who would dare offend a member of the Don Quixote family?
He squinted and waited, but the reef he had anchored on was a bit off-center from the main shipping lanes, and many ships didn't even go that way. There was no movement all day, and he was getting a little anxious.
What should I do? Should I wait or swim back to the main course?
Just as he was getting anxious, singing suddenly came from afar.
"Yohohoho! Bringing Binks' liquor to your side, as free as the sea breeze, riding the waves...yohohoho!"
Besides the singing, it seemed like something was tapping out a beat, making a muffled "pat-pat" sound.
Rao G was overjoyed; a ship had arrived!
He swam toward the sound of the song, clutching the Devil Fruit in his arms.
"Hmm?" He had just paddled a little when Vivi spotted him. At a distance of over 500 meters, she could see the Devil Fruit that Rao G was holding in his arms, treating it like a precious treasure.
What is this Devil Fruit? ...
Vivi seemed thoughtful. She pretended not to see it and continued listening to Brooke sing. At the same time, she blamed the duck for going the wrong way, but the duck didn't take the blame and instead hit her with a frying pan.
While playing with the ducks, Vivi kept a close eye on Rao.G.
The old man swam close, grabbed the edge of the boat, and with a nimble flip, jumped onto their boat.
He only glanced at Vivi and the duck casually; they were just ordinary passersby and comical pets, not worth mentioning. Most of the old man's attention was on Brook. He couldn't help it; his skeletal appearance was too eye-catching, which was also the main reason why Vivi didn't go with Robin and the others.
He glanced at the Devil Fruit in his hand. There were certainly people who weren't interested in Devil Fruits these days, but definitely not many. He didn't know if this strange group on the ship knew about Devil Fruits, and he didn't want to gamble. There was no need. He should just kill them all!
He held the Devil Fruit in one hand, then bent down, his right hand forming a "G" shape.
"The back pain style!" He felt the pain in his old back caused by exerting force, and drew strength from the pain. He had just gotten into a stance and tried to throw a punch when everything went black.
The black fog completely obscured his vision, but he could still hear the skeleton man not far from the bow of the ship speaking.
"Hohoho! -- Why is it so dark? I can't see anything, even though I don't have eyes..."
What's going on? Rao.G is still in a "backache-like" attack-charging state, holding back his power while quickly observing the changes around him.
There wasn't much to observe. It was pitch black all around, without a single ray of light. If it weren't for the swaying of his feet, which proved that he was still on the ship, he would have thought he had arrived in another place.
"A Devil Fruit ability? I underestimated you." The old man didn't know whose ability the darkness in front of him was. In his opinion, the skeleton man was the most suspicious, but the woman and the duck were also possibilities.
Chapter 138 You might not believe it, but my duck...
The Pirate Princess Becomes Queen Chapter 138 You might not believe it, but my duck... The person who created the cover-up quickly jumped out on their own.
"Hehehehe—" The young woman's laughter reached Rao.G's ears.
"Is it that woman?!" The old man recalled the woman's position from his memory, and with the ferocity of a tiger, he threw a punch quickly.
"Earth-Earth Fist!"
His punch, which he had been preparing for a long time, was extremely powerful. During the battle on Devil's Island, he had punched the giant Cassie so hard that he coughed up blood. But this time, his punch hit empty air. There was nothing where his fist landed. Realizing that something was wrong, he quickly withdrew his strength, twisted his waist, stepped his right leg to the side, and turned half a circle on the spot to neutralize the power of the punch. The price he paid was that his waist hurt even more.
A woman's voice rang in his ear: "Old man, you don't know Observation Haki, do you? What a pity, your physical skills are really good."
During the naval battle, Vivi picked up several of Rao G's boxing techniques. She preferred using a knife and wasn't interested in boxing, but she had some understanding of her opponent's moves.
Rao G had fought his whole life and was very experienced in combat. Ignoring Vivi's mockery, he raised his arm, aimed at his side, and threw a punch.
Vivi moved swiftly, spotted the opponent's position, took another step back, and when Rao G had exhausted his strength and his arm was outstretched to its maximum extent, she struck with lightning speed, grabbed the old man's wrist, squeezed it hard, and twisted it in the opposite direction.
The old man was only good at boxing; his physical abilities weren't anything extraordinary. He just felt that his opponent's strength was unbelievably great, and his wrist was fractured and about to break. He tried to break free by swinging, shaking, and hooking, using several techniques in succession, but all these skills were in vain in the face of absolute power.
"The ultimate secret technique of the Earth-Earth Fist, Fighting Fist Protection!" With a loud roar, the old man revealed his trump card. A strong life force suddenly burst forth from his body. His originally thin body suddenly swelled up, his muscles became as hard as iron, and his height increased dramatically.
Relying on special qigong, he sealed a portion of his youthful vitality within his body, somewhat reminiscent of the Naruto's Hundred Healings Technique.
Having regained his youthful physique and temporarily rid himself of the ailments of the elderly, his voice boomed like a bell. At the same time, he released the Devil Fruit, freeing his left hand, which was shaped like a crane's beak. He twisted his waist and turned around, forcefully striking his enemy's armpit, forcing him to let go.
The moment he released the Devil Fruit, Vivi had already sensed the enormous changes in his muscles and bones through her Observation Haki and retreated into the darkness beforehand.
"Where is he?" The old man's attack missed again. His burst of power was very short. If the enemy could stall for time with him, the outcome would be unimaginable. He was getting a little anxious.
His inability to see has a significant impact on his combat abilities.
Rao.G. used the soles of his feet to measure the area of the ship and deduce the location of the other party.
As he calculated, he suddenly realized that he didn't need to follow the other party's rhythm; the other party was a Devil Fruit user! He only needed to destroy the ship to win!
"The Mark of G!" He slammed his fists into the deck, breaking the small boat at one-third of its length.
"Ah—! I'm dead... I think I've been dead for a while?" Brooke fell face down into the water, and the duck, which can neither fly nor swim, plunged into the water with a "plop," quacking and splashing on the surface.
What kind of chaotic enemies are these! Rao G also fell into the water. He found that the black mist in front of him was still there, which puzzled him. Why was the black mist still there? Did the enemy not fall into the water?
The body can regain its youth, but the mind cannot. The rigid thinking of the elderly prevented him from thinking about flying. How many Devil Fruit users can fly these days? How unlucky would he be to encounter one?
The enemy's response exceeded his expectations, and he became somewhat flustered.
His wrist had been crushed and was now completely numb. In this dark environment, he felt the veins on his forehead throbbing wildly. At first, he thought it was just nervousness, but then he realized something was wrong. There was something in the black mist trying to control his blood.
Less than three seconds after falling into the water, he felt a rush of blood to his forehead, his head spinning, and the seawater taking away his body temperature, leaving him icy cold and his reactions extremely sluggish. The sudden change from hot to cold made him feel like his heart was about to explode.
Oh no! He still doesn't know exactly what the other party's ability is, but he knows that this ability is very effective against an old man like himself.
"Slay the Dragon!" A blood-red blade of light pierced the darkness and arrived before him.
A hint of bloodlust emanated from the flashing blade, and in a daze, he even saw a dazzling dragon-shaped phantom within it.
When he tried to defend himself, he realized his hands and feet were ice cold. His wrist bones had pierced his skin, and blood was flowing out like water, but he didn't even realize it.
The blade, capable of slaying a dragon, struck Rao G squarely in the chest. Blood gushed from his body like a fountain, only to be completely absorbed by the blade's edge. The crimson dragon patterns, nourished by the blood, appeared even more vibrant. When the old man breathed his last, his body was shriveled and almost all the blood in his body had drained away.
"Hmph." Vivi withdrew the veil of darkness, and the Second Generation Kitetsu was sheathed. She was very satisfied with the performance of the Dragon Slayer.
The old man thought he had sunk the ship, but in reality he had only capsized it. Vivi had Isis transform into a cloud of blood mist, dragging her along, and then, standing in mid-air, she killed Rao G.
This cloud of blood mist is much smaller than Zeus from the other side of the Grandma's world, and it is currently unable to fly long distances, but it can hold a person without any problem.
She flipped the boat over again, rescued Karoo the duck, and pulled Brooke, who was very light and had been clinging to the plank without sinking, aboard.
Just then, the Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter) rang. She picked it up and answered; it was Robin's voice on the other end.
"Weren't you asking about Devil Fruits? I heard from some pirates that a Devil Fruit appeared not far off the island, and an old guy snatched it from a few pirates. If you're interested..."
Vivi looked at Lao G, who had turned into a dried-up corpse. So this guy had also stolen a Devil Fruit from someone else.
"Thanks for the reminder. I've already seen the old man. He's too old; he passed out before I could even make a move."
Robin chuckled twice: "I heard from those pirates that the old man kept complaining about back pain and leg pain, so he's probably not very strong. You decide what to do. If you get a Devil Fruit, you'd better eat it as soon as possible."
Vivi nodded perfunctorily, then looked down at the sea... Huh? Where's the Devil Fruit? She recalled the location of the Devil Fruit and the spot where the duck had fallen into the water and thrashed about.
She turned around abruptly.
Karu the duck was deathly pale, waving at Vivi incessantly, as if something that had been stuck in its throat had been swallowed in fright...
