A pirate on the high seas kidnaps a Celestial Dragon!

The approach was rather mild.

But that's only if Kaya cooperates. If she doesn't cooperate, then he'll have to be a bit rougher.

But no matter what.

For Qi Bai, it's important to maintain a certain level of composure when doing things.

of course.

That aura.

It can be easily transformed into a sense of sophistication.

To put it in one sentence.

That is, he wants to be a ruthless and sophisticated gang leader!

……

“Let’s go, Grimmjow.”

Qi Bai didn't care about the deserted scene at all. It was best if the world feared him. He didn't want to become like Navy T-Bone, who was kind to civilians but ended up being killed by them.

An ordinary person has no intention of doing anything that crosses moral boundaries, but he also won't be so kind as to help these people.

He was like a passerby.

An observer.

Unless, of course, it concerns his interests.

Otherwise, he would never have stepped forward to help these ordinary strangers.

"Yes, boss."

Grimmjow responded.

He also got up and followed quietly behind Qi Bai.

For Grimmjow

He was an impatient person, but as for those loyal to Qi Bai, such as Yoriichi Tsugikuni, although he was somewhat annoyed by these seemingly weak guys, he didn't have any conflicts with them during this period because they were all loyal to their leader.

We entered the town.

Qi Bai also headed directly towards the center of this town of Shells.

The naval architecture was so obviously obvious, it couldn't be more obvious.

If we can't see it...

Even if he's not really blind.

Qi Bai also walked along the way.

The journey was rather deserted; no one appeared around them, and no one stopped them.

The journey was completely unimpeded.

They soon arrived at the 153rd Naval Division.

then.

He's in this area.

He also saw someone he wanted to see.

"Roronoa Zoro!"

"It seems that my memories are correct."

When Qi Bai saw the person tied up in the execution ground, he couldn't help but smile.

He didn't waste this time.

He also inquired about the exact time he was in.

As far as he knows.

Luffy set sail in May.

and so……

Not long after setting sail.

Luffy arrived at this place and successfully recruited Zoro into his pirate crew.

To know.

Zoro did it because of one thing.

He voluntarily agreed to be tied up at the execution ground for a month. By the time Luffy arrived, he had already been tied up for almost twenty days.

so.

He didn't know exactly which day of May Luffy arrived.

But at this point in time.

Zoro should be around here too.

So he decided to come and try his luck.

But now it seems.

He was indeed very lucky.

He too walked into the execution ground, followed closely by Grimmjow.

His light footsteps.

But this startled Zoro awake from his sleep.

Twenty days.

Normal people would have starved to death long ago.

But Zoro has persevered to this day thanks to his strong willpower.

Part of this is because Zoro's willpower is truly astonishing.

Also.

They are the people of this world.

After sufficient time of cultivation, one's physique becomes so powerful that it far surpasses the imagination of ordinary people. One can survive for twenty days without food or water, which is enough to demonstrate how amazing the physiques in this world are.

"Who are you?"

Zoro slightly raised his head and glanced at Qi Bai, his voice noticeably hoarse.

"I am a ruthless bandit, here specifically to kidnap you, Roronoa Zoro!"

Qi Bai smiled gently and spoke slowly in a calm tone.

Those who don't know Qi Bai might think he was just joking.

and so……

Zoro, of course, did not take Qi Bai's words seriously.

"I'm not in the mood for jokes. I need to rest. You should leave now."

Zoro also spoke to Qi Bai and the other two.

Then, he prepared to close his eyes and rest.

Twenty days without food or water.

He was too exhausted to waste any more words arguing with the other party.

"You brat, how dare you be so disrespectful to the boss!"

Qi Bai had not yet spoken.

Grimmjow, standing behind him, couldn't hold back any longer.

In his opinion.

This disrespectful behavior towards Qi Bai made him even angrier than his desire to kill those who looked down on him.

boom--!

His spiritual pressure was released almost instantly.

They avoided Qi Bai.

It pressed down on Zoro like a tidal wave.

This terrifying spiritual pressure.

Zoro's eyes snapped open; even without saying a word, his eyes betrayed him.

He was so shocked by the force of the other party that he was speechless.

Especially this inexplicable sense of oppression.

It was as if it was directly pressing on his soul.

This rendered him speechless. If he hadn't been tied to this rack, he would have been forced to his knees by Grimmjow's spiritual pressure.

One, two, three... Every second was an immense pressure for Zoro at that moment.

Because he is currently under Grimmjow's spiritual pressure, he feels like he is about to lose consciousness.

But at this moment.

“Grimmjow, put aside your anger for now, I have something to say to him.”

Qi Bai slowly began to speak.

He told Grimmjow to stop.

of course.

He didn't think it was wrong for Grimmjow to be angry about such things, because no boss would dislike a subordinate who would fight to the death to uphold his dignity.

and so……

He expressed his appreciation for Grimmjow's actions.

therefore.

He did not reprimand the other party.

"Honor your orders."

Grimmjow also withdrew his released spiritual pressure under Qi Bai's orders.

This was almost entirely due to that terrifying spiritual pressure.

Zoro, who had been unable to speak or even breathe under the immense pressure, breathed a huge sigh of relief, as if the mountain on his body had been lifted away in an instant.

This also caused Zoro to gasp for breath.

Almost.

He felt like he was about to lose consciousness.

"Zoro, I have a question for you, please help me with it."

Qi Bai asked aloud.

moment.

After catching his breath for a while, Zoro finally turned his gaze to Qi Bai.

He didn't know who the other person was.

but.
