Big brother, I want to become the strongest pirate in the world!

"Ugh... I'm not reconciled! How dare two mere soldiers stop me, this princess! Even my brother couldn't stop me!"

That's why I've spoiled you like this.

Robin shook her head inwardly. Who was the most favored person on the ship? Her? No, she was almost 16 years old, long past the age of being pampered like a child.

Is it Sugar? No, Sugar is the little girl who was bullied the most by Kazan. Whenever she acted unreasonably, she would be taught a lesson by Kazan, so she didn't develop any bad habits.

Perona was the most favored.

Brother, you were careless... You only considered whether the youngest Sugar might turn bad because no one could keep her in check, but you didn't think that Perona, who isn't much older than Sugar, could also turn bad.

As Robin pondered Perona's question, she raised her arms and crossed them in front of her chest, subtly activating the power of the Flower Flower Fruit.

The next moment, a soldier in an alley had his head snapped off by an arm that suddenly appeared around his neck.

If Kazan had seen this, he would never have imagined that Robin could be so ruthless.

It can be said that Kazan is the most 'soft-hearted' among all the monsters in the family, except for Perona and Sugar.

Because all the monster family members except Kazan don't mind letting enemies or even complete strangers die for their own family, while Kazan, influenced by the peaceful era of his previous life and the personality of his master in his previous life, cannot be so cruel and ruthless to complete strangers.

Frankly speaking, the entire Monster Pirates crew, with only Captain Kazan, doesn't deserve to be called 'pirates'.

After dealing with the soldiers, Robin led the still defiant Perona toward the bookstore in town.

Both she and Perona needed books to supplement their knowledge so that they could be of use to their brother in the future.

The two entered the central street directly from the outer ring of the Goa Kingdom. The outer street was full of poor people and thugs. Perona didn't like it there, so Robin had no choice but to lead her further in.

Perona only became happy after entering the central street and the town's scenery began to clear up a bit.

This kind of personality is really not good! It can't go on like this. We have to stop it immediately. What if it gets worse and worse? I have to tell my brother about this!

Robin looked at the cute little girl holding her hand, sighed, and silently said, 'I'm sorry.'

While the two were browsing various bookstores and buying the books they needed.

Kazan has also entered the Kingdom of Goa.

Chapter 103 The Fishman Who Was Auctioned

Unlike Robin and Perona who entered through the main entrance, Kazan took a slightly roundabout route and then broke through the wall to enter.

The Kingdom of Goa basically doesn't consider areas outside the central street as territory. You can tell just by looking at how dirty the outer streets are. Apart from having complete houses to live in, they're not much different from an uncertain destination.

For this reason, the Kingdom of Goa did not care much about the strength of the outer city walls, as long as they could serve to demarcate the boundary with the uncertain destination.

For someone of Kazan's caliber, the stone walls of the outer city are as fragile as paper; even when he's 'severely injured,' he could break them with a single punch.

Of course, the sound made by a fist is definitely louder than the sound made by a knife, so Kazan chose to cut with a knife in order not to attract too much attention.

Kazan has now entered the outer city and is searching for Robin and Perona.

Kazan was unaware that Robin had already taken his 'good' sister Perona into the center of the street because of her.

He was just thinking that his master had once told him, "The greatest hermits are hidden in the bustling city," and that all those martial arts manuals were hidden in the most chaotic places.

Kazan believed that Robin, with her intelligence, must understand this principle, so they must be searching for those mysterious books in a bookstore on the outer street.

"Hmph, they were raised by me, how could I not understand what they're thinking?"

Kazan muttered a couple of words indifferently, shook his head and waved his hand, then began searching for Robin and Perona at full speed in various inconspicuous bookstores on the outer street.

……evening.

"?"

Kazan was quite certain that he had visited all the bookstores on the outer street. He even asked the bookstore owners if they had seen 'two beautiful women, one tall and one short', but the answer was always no.

"Could they have really gone into the central street? Yes! It's possible. They may have already found all the rarer books outside, and then went inside to get some more ordinary books to pass the time."

Kazan clenched his right fist and tapped it against his left palm, instantly figuring out what was going on.

Kazan suddenly realized that he had never done this action before, but now he was actually using it.

Looks like I caught it from Luffy... I need to keep my distance.

Kazan was secretly alarmed that Luffy, a berserker whose mentality was already severely compromised, could actually influence him. In a way, Luffy was also a gifted brat.

Thinking about it carefully, it's not surprising. Before meeting Luffy, Ace was cold and ruthless, while Sabo was clever and quick-witted. Later, Ace suddenly fell asleep while eating and almost suffocated himself by getting his food in his mouth. Sabo also started to become more willful and reckless, causing his partner Koala a lot of headaches.

As expected of you, Wang Lufei.

Kazan glanced at the sky and frowned. Although the chances were slim, he couldn't help but worry about whether Robin and Perona might be in danger.

Although he wanted to continue searching, he had promised Little Sugar that he would pick her up that evening.

He didn't choose to go back into the central street to look for them. By this time, Robin and Perona should have already left the Goa Kingdom, or at least it was time for them to leave.

Kazan decided to wait outside the outer city gate for a while, and if Robin and Perona didn't arrive, he would leave.

When leaving, Kazan doesn't need to take a detour anymore; he can just walk straight out the main gate and swagger out.

Upon emerging and seeing the familiar sight of the uncertain destination, he knew there was no need to worry anymore.

Isn't this exactly the same as when we arrived, with everyone lying around like this? We can't expect all these people to be so negative all afternoon.

"Phew...looks like those two brats went back first."

Although it was a wasted trip, Kazan was still relieved when he learned that Robin and Perona were safe.

"With the two of them with us, we don't need to worry too much about Little Sugar. We've come all this way, we can't let it all go to waste."

Kazan, standing at the city gate, suddenly turned around, looked at the brightly lit Goa Kingdom in the night, chuckled softly, and then went back inside.

This time, there were no detours; we went straight to the high street where royalty and nobility gathered to see what interesting things were there.

……

"Wow, as expected of a 'noble' habitat, it never surprises me."

Kazan almost vomited watching the hypocritical greetings exchanged between the wealthy men and women dressed in fine silks and satins on the street.

Calling them hypocritical is an understatement; it's downright exaggerated.

A true 'hypocrite' will almost never be exposed; if no one discovers it, that person will remain a true gentleman for life.

The smiles on the faces of this group of people were clearly exaggerated, yet they were able to communicate animatedly and without any sign of anything amiss.

"Have they already established their own rules?"

Seeing through things but not saying it has clearly become an unwritten rule among these 'nobles,' and perhaps it is precisely because of this that they can act so extravagantly and without fear.

Anyway, no one will openly admit it or make a scene.

"It's not interesting. Let's go take a look over there."

Kazan quickly lost interest in the group of nobles and wandered around the high street, eventually ending up at an auction.

I previously attended an auction held by the Don Quixote family. Although it wasn't very successful in the end, the items at the auction were all very rare and valuable.

In terms of wealth, the Kingdom of Goa should be richer than the Don Quixote family, so the items at the auction here shouldn't be too bad.

However, Kazan was proven wrong once again.

There were no rare weapons or Devil Fruits whatsoever! Only various luxurious but useless jewelry and necklaces, and the slightly more upscale items were antiques pulled from who-knows-where!

The group of people attending the auction were having a blast, their shouts making it seem as if Kazan had been transported back to the Grand Forest of Arad, where people were shouting about selling equipment and forming teams.

This is so disappointing.

Kazan sighed, stood up, and prepared to leave.

"The last item is a product that has never appeared in our Goa Kingdom in a hundred years!!! We only managed to capture it by chance."

"This is a fish-man from Fish-Man Island! He recently appeared on the territory of our Goa Kingdom searching for something, and was captured by our tall and brave henchmen from the auction house!"

“We have already put a collar on him. Without the key, he absolutely cannot unlock it. If he resists, the collar will instantly electrify him, causing him excruciating pain.”

……

Kazan was no longer in the mood to listen to people's discussions.

Kazan turned his head and glanced at him, then his face under the hood turned ashen. If it were an ordinary murloc, it wouldn't be a problem, but…

He was a member of the Sun Pirates, and thus considered half a member of their Monster Pirates.

He was also the spineless fishman who used to call him "Big Brother" and greatly admired him. He was good friends with Arlong and Xiao Ba, and Kazan still remembered his name.

Croobi.

Chapter 104 Croobi

"These are the fish-men who live ten thousand meters below the sea beneath the Holy Land of Mary Geoise!"

Even the legendary Celestial Dragons, the noble race of the heavens, praised the Fish-Men as an excellent race for slavery.

"This is the first time that a fish-man slave has been auctioned in the East China Sea. Such an opportunity is rare and hard to come by. We lost a lot of troops in order to capture him."

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so what are you all waiting for?!"

The auctioneer sounded slightly agitated, which was understandable.

In fact, this fishman has been auctioned three times already, but no one has bought it.

Perhaps it was because these nobles disliked the merfolk for being ugly, or perhaps they feared the power of the merfolk and worried that they might still have the strength to resist.

In short, no one bought the male merman, which gave the auctioneer a major headache.

Because the higher-ups had already given the order to sell the fishman at this auction, those people had already regretted it when they captured the fishman.

They had already seen the sun symbol on the fishman's right chest, the symbol of the Sun Pirates, a pirate crew from the Grand Line. This was a fishman from the Sun Pirates.

They didn't know how powerful the Sun Pirates were, but judging from their captain's bounty of over 200 million, they were not to be trifled with.

Although they had already covered the brand on the merman's body with the branding iron, they were still worried and just wanted to get rid of this hot potato.

If it weren't for the heavy losses they suffered while capturing this fishman, which left them feeling resentful, they would have even considered killing the fishman outright.

If they fail to sell the murloc at today's auction, then there's nothing they can do but kill it, which would be a pointless loss of manpower.

"Such a rare merman, don't you all want one??? How envious would the others be of having such a merman slave?"

"I'll buy it, 100,000 Berries, are you selling?"
