The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

"The seawater in this area is really cold!"

Feeling the cold seawater slapping wildly against my face, and the drizzling rain soaking my entire body.

Yixiao was also there, sighing with emotion.

As someone who has come here in place of his captain Luffy to participate in and observe the events of the "Pirate Expo," Issho's plan is to have some ramen and then wait and see how things unfold.

However~~~

~~~~~~~~~

[A huge thank you again to the generous user 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch'! They've given me so many generous donations this morning, I don't know how many times they've done it. I'm truly grateful!!]

849 A composed smile from the sidelines, a belated eagle eye, and the gradually clarifying situation~

Upon arriving, Yixiao realized...

It seems the current situation on the field is somewhat different from what he initially anticipated.

"I originally thought it was just a simple World Expo, and even if there was going to be fighting, it would have to wait until after the World Expo started."

Yixiao sat upright on the rock, his Observation Haki scanning the entire area. "But judging from the current situation, isn't it a bit too direct?"

Yes, the Navy and the pirates really went straight into battle without the slightest hesitation.

Both sides abandoned all pretense, all traps and schemes, and all battle plans.

In the face of absolute power, all of this is futile.

Both sides resorted to the most primitive and direct method of confrontation, involving real weapons.

Yes, under such circumstances, the turmoil in this sea area can be described as unprecedented.

Even someone like Yixiao, who has lived most of her life, has never witnessed such a tragic situation.

Although he couldn't see it, his Observation Haki constantly processed the situation below, and the rapidly disappearing sounds of the 20s still made him sigh.

"Why did it have to come to this?"

Yi Xiao shook his head. Driven by their so-called greed and the dream of becoming the next Pirate King, many pirates have braved thorns and brambles to get here.

Even knowing the dangers of this journey, they still came here with fervor, disregarding their own safety. Such behavior made Yixiao watch coldly from the sidelines.

Yeah, even if he can't see and only has the whites of his eyes...

"So, this naval battle should be the end of the journey for many pirates."

Yixiao felt no sympathy for these people who buried their lives for their own greed.

There was even a sense of great satisfaction from the cleanup of the sea.

After all, the fewer of these guys there are at sea, the better it is for the people.

"I just don't know how it will ultimately end."

He then turned his gaze to the two major battlegrounds below.

[Green Bull] The battle between Aramaki and Shiryu, and the battle between Douglas Barrett, Sengoku, Garp and Kizaru.

The situation in this sea area is gradually becoming clearer.

"The other pirates are no match for us. The key lies in the battle between Douglas Barrett and that guy Aramaki."

Despite being blind, Yi Xiao was still able to see the truth clearly.

"Once the battles in these two locations can be decided, the situation on the high seas will also be rewritten."

"If the pirates win, the Navy's fighting power will completely collapse. Douglas Bullet will carry an invincible momentum and directly attack the Navy Headquarters and the Red Line."

"And the other pirates in this sea area will also be unable to escape; they will all become victims of his fists."

"If the Navy wins, Douglas Barrett will be captured, and the Cross Guild will collapse instantly."

"Moreover, the many pirates here will also be subject to Garp and Sengoku's retribution and pursuit..."

It can be said that regardless of who wins or loses, the ones who will suffer are the numerous pirates who greedily flocked to the final island for the permanent pointer.

Looking down at the chaotic situation from above, Yixiao had no intention of going down to make a move.

Anyway, he didn't know Douglas Barrett; he was just here to attend the World Expo.

Now that he can't attend the Pirate Festival, his job becomes very simple.

Be a good spectator and record the details and many truths of this naval battle. That way, when the battle is over...

When he returned to the Straw Hat Pirates, he was able to perfectly report this detailed information to his captain and crew, which can be considered as doing his job.

As for the duel between [Green Bull] Aramaki and Shiryu.

As for Aramaki, he had a past relationship with him, while Shiryu was a subordinate ship of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Although Luffy doesn't care about them and doesn't even consider them his comrades, that's how it is in name.

Therefore, Yixiao chose the rather prudent approach of remaining neutral and observing the situation from there.

At most, he would only appear to dissuade them when both sides were in a bloodthirsty frenzy and about to kill each other.

At least we need to ensure that no one on either side dies.

Yes, a smile that carries a sense of benevolence in one's heart is about maintaining that kind of thinking.

Therefore, no matter how turbulent the storms below may be, Yixiao doesn't care at all.

In fact, if it weren't for the weather in this area, the rain, and the fact that there are so many waves splashing out, it would be quite a sight.

He even wanted to boil a kettle of water, make a cup of hot tea, and a bowl of steaming instant noodles.

It has to be said that he ate quite a few instant noodles that Link gave him on his way here, and they tasted really good.

Thus, under such circumstances, 847 calmly and patiently awaited the outcome of the match.

And sharing the same idea was a man sitting on a coffin raft on the outskirts of this naval battle.

"It seems there's no room for me to intervene."

Former Shichibukai, Hawkeye Mihawk, looked up, surveyed the various situations on the field, crossed his legs, and muttered to himself.

He sat calmly in the small boat, his arms crossed, drifting with the current.

He originally came here to experience the power of Douglas Barrett at his peak, and rushed over without stopping.

The result~~~

As soon as he arrived, he saw Chang Wei attacking... Barrett was surrounded by a trio of naval soldiers.

And so he knew that his goal was impossible to achieve.

If Barrett loses, he will naturally be arrested by the Navy, and he will no longer have the opportunity to fight him.

[A huge thank you again to the user 'Once Upon a Time There Was a Eunuch' for all the generous donations they've given me! I'm truly grateful!! Sorry everyone, the update is late. Happy New Year to all the big shots!!]

850 You old bastard! Barrett's roar!! Let's settle both the old and new scores!

If Barrett wins, it will inevitably consume too much of his energy.

He, Djorkol Mihawk, the world's greatest swordsman, would not stoop to taking advantage of someone in distress.

In other words, he arrived too late; there was no longer a suitable opportunity for him to intervene on the battlefield.

"In that case..."

Hawkeye Mihawk glanced sideways at the fierce, explosive battle raging on the field before looking away.

"Then let's leave."

He was decisive and without any hesitation; he steered his small coffin boat and turned to leave.

Just like in the original, when he arrived at the World Expo and found that Barrett was already fighting with someone, he casually chopped down a rock and turned to leave.

He left quietly, just as he came quietly, without attracting anyone's attention, still doing things his own way, displaying his elegance to the fullest.

No one seemed to care about Hawkeye Mihawk's future.

Even the top experts on the battlefield paid no attention to it.

Even though they could sense the other party's presence through Observation Haki, based on their strong confidence in their own combat strength, they firmly believed that even if Hawkeye joined in, it would not affect the situation.

Not to mention that now that the other party has left, they are even more able to go all out and fight with all their might.

"Hahaha, Barrett, you've gotten even tougher than you did twenty years ago!!"

At the very center of the battlefield, the laughter of the hero Garp echoed through the sky.

It possessed an almost overwhelming sense of pride, a righteous indignation that could scare away the villains.

Meanwhile, in the fierce battle with his opponent, his jet-black, fierce fist bones almost shook the four seas and the entire world!

That unstoppable tiger-like fighting spirit, accompanied by an overwhelming and domineering aura, unleashed a punch with unparalleled power.

"Garp, you old bastard~々～!"

That body had a devilish, crimson skin, a hideous face beneath golden hair, and a deep grin at the corner of its mouth.

"So many years have passed, yet your strength hasn't diminished in the slightest, and moreover..."

Feeling the extremely powerful force of the punch, even this man, who currently possesses immense strength and stands atop the vast ocean, was unwilling to take the hit head-on.

"Your fist still hurts as much as ever!!!"

boom! !

As he spoke, that fierce and domineering aura, like that of a blue demon, also covered his huge white glove.

The massive fist collided with Garp's unstoppable knuckles, unleashing a terrifying impact powerful enough to shake the entire ocean!

An indestructible, domineering aura emanated from his entire body!

Unlike the typical weak and scattered Haki that covers the whole body, his powerful aura, which seemed to have emerged from hell, merged with his own Haki, greatly enhancing his speed and strength.

Like a "devil from hell," this is one of the reasons why this man is called the "Devil's Heir."

Douglas Barrett!!

At this moment, in the very center of this sea area, high above the ocean, amidst numerous broken rocks.

Several figures were suddenly intertwined and clashed within it.

"Originally, I was planning to clean up some of the filthy pirates on this sea that I couldn't stand, but look what happened, you bunch of marines delivered yourselves right to my doorstep!!"

Douglas Barrett laughed loudly, the sight of the green demon and crimson skin intertwined making him look particularly terrifying.

"To be honest, this kind of reckless, suicide-seeking style does indeed fit the usual practices of your navy!!!"

His slightly mocking smile did not affect his attack.

His many rivals, however, ignored this.

"Buddha's Wrath - Divine Charge!"

A solemn voice suddenly rang out, and the dawn, which seemed to pierce through all evil in the world, broke through the clouds, almost washing away all sins and cleansing away all ugliness!

The deep, resonant voice of the golden Buddha echoed across the entire sky, cleansing the whole world.

A powerful shockwave, descending from above, struck with unparalleled might!

"You're still the same old you, all you do is create shockwaves!!"

Douglas Barrett, veins bulging on his forehead, roared back.

Strangely enough, he didn't dislike Garp, even though Garp was an enemy.

However, for Sengoku, the former commander-in-chief of the navy, Douglas Barrett was particularly disgusting and annoying.

Compared to the other two, Garp is perhaps more straightforward and generous.

The Warring States period, on the other hand, clearly carries a sinister feel, especially the Demon Extermination Order from twenty years ago.

But let Douglas Barrett put all these old scores on the shoulders of the Sengoku period.

And now, the Warring States period is here too, so it's a perfect time to settle both old and new scores!

Needless to say~~~

"The Eight-Span Curved Jewel!!!"

Hidden in the sky, deep behind the clouds, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth, and countless points of light bombarded down.
