Chapter 3 What King Are You?
Delidor Nord Saberu.
The main ship of the "Creek Pirates", the huge sailing ship with three decks and the black panther on the bow is the nightmare of all merchant ships in the nearby waters.
"Little ones, Master Crick's name will definitely resound throughout the world."
"Oh! Oh!"
"Master Admiral, there is a merchant ship ahead."
"Merchant ships?" Creek grinned, "There are merchant ships that dare to show up where I am, Mr. Creek? Little ones, here comes the fun!"
"Oh! Oh!"
It took less than ten minutes for the huge Delidor Nord Sabel to lean against the merchant ship.
The merchant ship did not dare to turn the rudder and escape.
Creek Pirates, if you encounter them, ordinary merchant ships will not be able to compete with them in horsepower and escape.
And if you try to escape, he will kill everyone on board when he catches up to you.
Begging for mercy may not be useful, because there is that cold-blooded and brutal man on board besides Crick.
"Ghost" Ah Jin.
I just hope that man is not on board today, or not involved in this robbery.
Dylan squinted at the bewildered and hopeless sailors and merchants.
Creek? Has this guy not gone on the great voyage yet?
This guy's area of activity was not near Dylan's branch before, and I didn't deliberately look for him, but now I think about it.
East Blue does have such a number one.
but······
What does he seem to call himself the overlord of the East Blue? Or the King of the East Blue? ?
Dylan stood up holding the knife, and the sailors and merchants who were kneeling on the deck next to him screamed in fright when they saw the young man on the boat standing on the bow with a weapon.
"Hey, stranger! Come back quickly, you will kill us like this!"
Dylan tilted his head and thought for a while: "I remember that there was a guy named Ah Jin on his boat. He seemed to be very cruel and never kept alive. Could you just kneel here and pray for your life?"
Hearing the name of "Ghost Man Ah Jin", the faces of the people on the deck turned pale for a while, but they still had a little fantasy: "Maybe 'Ghost Man Ah Jin' is not on board today? Stranger, we are kind enough to pick you up, don’t you ·······"
"Ah...thank you for giving me a ride, as a thank you gift..."
The eyes of everyone on the merchant ship flashed, and the young man who was standing at the bow disappeared.
There was a burst of hope in everyone's heart, but more despair!
In this sea area, whether it is against other pirates or the army, the "Crick Pirates" has never had a defeat.
…
On the top deck of the Delidornod Saberu, Baloo the Iron Wall was banging on the shields on his arms.
"Hey ha ha ha!! I will become the strongest shield of the admiral."
"Really? How strong is it?" An indifferent voice rang clearly in everyone's ears.
On the prow of the huge black panther, stood a man wearing white clothes and holding a long knife. His long white hair in a shawl was flying in the wind.
"Iron Wall" Balu's head didn't seem to be working well, before he could react, "ghost man" Ajin came out first: "Who are you?"
The height of the Delidor Nord Sabelu, the person who can appear silently at the bow of the ship is not necessarily easy to mess with.
"Marine."
"Marine!?"
Only then did "Iron Wall" Balu react, and rushed to Ajin with a strange cry: "A mere Marine, how dare you..."
"Chi~"
Dylan gently pushed Shura's blade with the thumb of his left hand, and a red ripple flew out from the blade that was only an inch long.
"A mere... Marine?"
Dylan jumped off the bow and walked past the "iron wall" Baru who had been split in two from forehead to crotch.
"Ghostman" Ah Jin swallowed, but didn't back down: "Marine, you want to be with the King of East Blue..."
"Huh?" Dylan narrowed his eyes, and a gust of wind spread from around Dylan's body, and the surrounding pirates suddenly felt a strong impact, and then felt dizzy for a while.
Then they lost consciousness.
Hundreds of crew members fell to the ground like grass blown by a strong wind.
Only "Admiral" Crick and "Ghost" Ajin were left on the deck, barely able to stay awake, but already profusely sweating.
"Hey, what's this?" Crick was wearing golden armor, barely standing upright.
"Don't underestimate us! Marine! I'm..."
A line of blood flew across, and two human heads flew high.
"What king are you?"
After jumping to the top of the mast and sticking Crick's head on top, Dylan rejoined the merchant ship.
"Come on, they won't come."
"you······"
Just as the first officer on the merchant ship was about to speak, the pupils of the lookout on the mast shrank: "Yes, it's Creek's head. He's dead, he's dead!"
Hearing what the lookout said, the first officer looked in surprise at the indifferent young man in front of him.
He did disappear just now, but it wasn't long before Creek Pirates...
"Set sail! Set sail!"
The sails were slowly raised, and Dylan held the handle of Shura's knife with his right hand as he looked at the Delidonod Saberu, which was getting farther and farther away in his sight.
"King of the East Blue?"
A crimson light flew out from the stern of the ship, directly dividing the Delidornod Saberu in the distance into two from the bow to the stern.
"East Blue doesn't need anything like this."
The stunned crew members slid down the sloping deck and cabin into the sea like dumplings. On the top of the mast, Creek's head was still looking into the distance with a furious and terrified expression.
······
Town of Rogge.
Dylan walked leisurely on the stone road, and after passing here was the Upside Down Mountain.
Of course, he doesn't intend to go upside down, and Marine's unique warship can pass through the Calm Belt.
He's only here to reflect on the past.
"Hey!"
A familiar voice came from behind Dylan.
"Redhead" Shanks stood alone, a bottle of wine in his hand.
"What a coincidence, I met you here again, are you going to the great route?"
Shanks looked at the tall and straight Dylan. This young Marine put him under a lot of pressure. Although there was no hand-to-hand exchange between the two, Shanks felt an aura in him that he had never had before.
He feels different from all Marines.
Whether it is Garp's fortitude or Zephyr's determination, they are completely different from him.
Even the newly rising guys like Kizaru, Aokiji, and Akainu in Marine are fundamentally different from this seemingly indifferent man in terms of aura.
He is more like an abyss, deep and steady, but no one knows what is hidden under the abyss.
"It's a coincidence. Are you here to nostalgia? You cried a lot when you were here."
Dylan glanced at Shanks. He wasn't disgusted by the man, but he didn't really like him either.
It's just that it's not a good time to fight him.
"then?"
Shanks froze for a moment, recalling that day more than ten years ago, his expression fell instantly.
"Ah, it's true. Were you here back then? Judging by your age, you should be in your teens. Back then..."
Shanks looked up: "Haven't you thought about going to sea?"
"Go to sea?"
Dylan pressed Shura's knife handle, and gave Shanks a meaningful look: "Are you a pirate?"
Hearing Dylan's bad tone, Shanks smiled and said, "Being a pirate..."
"A thief is a thief!" Dylan coldly interrupted Shanks: "It doesn't matter if it's a bandit, a pirate, or a thief. A thief is a thief! A person who blindly pursues his own 'freedom' and preys on the weak, no matter what he thinks No matter how much he dreams, he cannot change the fact that he is a 'thief'!"
"Don't talk to me about dreams, freedom, partners, your 'freedom'..." The air around Dylan began to twist:
"It's built on the pain of the weak!"
A streak of black lightning visible to the naked eye rushed out of Dylan's surroundings.
"you!"
Shanks' pupils shrank, and the same black lightning burst out from his body. When the two auras collided, the dark clouds in the sky swirled.
When the aura of the two dissipated, some small cracks appeared on the surrounding walls.
"This is a town, and I have no plans to fight you for the time being, but 'redhead'..." Dylan looked at Shanks sharply.
"Don't cross the line, otherwise, not only will the new era not have your boat, but your 'dream'... I will also kill it with my own hands."
After Dylan left, Benn Beckman and others approached from the street.
The big meaty legs that Laki Lu had been holding all year round were gone, and Yasopp was holding the spear tightly.
"What a horrible guy..."
Yasopp glanced at the corner: "Are you possessing the 'qualification of a king' and have cultivated 'Conqueror's' to such a degree... Marine?"
