Chapter 192 A Mere Pirate King
Chapter 192 A Mere Pirate King
……
"Who do you think... is standing in front of you?! You bastard!!"
"I've had enough, I'm going to kill you!!!"
Jack the Drought, one of the top members of the Beasts Pirates, is an Ancient Zoan user with the Mammoth Fruit in Mammoth form.
He was a meter taller than Kaido, who was seven meters tall, and incredibly strong.
The most striking feature is the ivory decoration on his head and shoulders, which at first glance looks as if it grew out of him.
King and Queen were responsible for guarding the main camp, and Kaido only brought Jack with him among his officers.
Kaido values Jack highly, and Jack is extremely respectful to Kaido, regarding him as a god.
Before coming out, Brother Jin had repeatedly reminded him that if he encountered that man named White Wolf, he should never get into a conflict with him.
Jack listened and endured it many times.
But now... I just can't hold back anymore!!
How dare they be so disrespectful to Boss Kaido!!
I don't care who you are! I'm going to kill you!
-
The atmosphere, which had just quieted down, erupted again because of Jack's angry shout.
Allen smiled like a crescent moon, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword at his waist:
"Then... let's go."
Clang——
Jack's eyes were filled with crimson, as if rage had completely taken over his mind, and he pulled out the scythe from the ivory ornament.
On the verge of conflict...
Peng——
Kaido raised his arm to block Jack, his voice like muffled thunder.
"We're even now, I forgive that kid's offense."
"Don't look at Jack with those dangerous eyes."
……
……
-
Despite some setbacks, the auction was held as scheduled, and people from all over the world arrived one after another.
The venue was extremely large and magnificent, with an architectural style reminiscent of the Mary Geoise, and predominantly white.
To ensure that large guests do not feel cramped, one of the seats is designed to be extremely large.
The presence of Kaido further reveals Doflamingo's meticulous attention to detail, as the seating arrangement is designed to fit the style of the Beasts, featuring rugged stone chairs.
……
The maids carried the drinks as they walked, quickening their pace and trembling as they passed the Beasts Pirates.
But when they got to Allen's side...
They stopped immediately, put down their drinks, and refused to leave, crowding together behind him with hearts in their eyes.
……
Da-da-da—
"You have a face that is absolutely unique and unparalleled. I have never seen anyone more beautiful than you."
"This is something no ordinary woman can achieve... don't you think so, Major General Allen?"
The woman's voice was alluring, sending shivers down your spine.
She walked out slowly, wearing a pink and white dress with a high slit, and holding a slender pipe in her hand with wisps of blue smoke.
"Nice to meet you, Stuart from Pleasure Street, here to pay you a visit!"
Queen of the Underground Entertainment District...
……
"Get out of here."
Allen lowered his head slightly, ignoring Stussy: "A copy of Bakkin Stussy, just looking at him makes me sick."
Stussy abruptly took two steps back, his pupils contracting rapidly.
He quickly looked around to make sure the World Government personnel weren't nearby, then lowered his voice and said, "What do you know?!"
Allen slowly raised his hand: "There's no need to explain to you, Shiryu. If you don't move aside, kill her."
……
"Even though I don't understand what you're saying, how can I possibly lay a hand on such a beautiful woman..."
Even though it was just a casual remark, Shiryu had already stood up and drawn his sword.
He even had the heart to harm Hancock, so why would he bother with a mere Stussy...?
Shiryu was trying to figure out where to strike to maximize the amount of blood that would be sprayed out!
The best thing about following Allen is that my bloodlust is unleashed.
Branch G-179 has no prison.
Pirates who have killed people are killed, while those whose crimes do not warrant death are assigned to hard labor.
Want to go to jail and freeload off Lord Allen? Dream on!
……
"Wait! I'm leaving!!"
Stussy did not hesitate at all, and was not afraid of being exposed when he left, even using Moonwalk.
"Tsk! Pretty fast!"
Shiryu reluctantly sheathed his sword, his cold gaze turning to the gathered maids. He opened his mouth, but then seemed to remember something, immediately closing his mouth and sitting down.
There was a similar situation before, where he felt the urge to kill but couldn't, so he looked at the civilians living in the base and said something sarcastic.
"Why don't we just kill all these onlookers?"
……
For the next three months, Shiliu remained in the intensive care unit and nearly did not make it out.
……
……
The highest seats on both sides of the auction were reserved for Allen and Kaido, while below them sat some powerful figures from the underworld and well-known pirates.
There are also many unknown pirates.
The reputation of the Float-Float Fruit is so great that even newcomers to the New World who lack both wealth and strength would dream of it…
What if I manage to get it?
This is a real opportunity to soar to new heights, and that's not even an exaggeration!
……
Even Stussy ran into a wall...
"I've only seen her in the newspapers before... Besides her unnaturally beautiful face, she doesn't seem to have much presence."
"Is this the legendary new hero of the Navy?"
"Keep your voice down!"
An older man next to him nudged him and whispered, "Someone like you would have been dead eight times over by the time you could even sense any aura!"
"I heard he came with Kai..."
He was halfway through his sentence when he caught a glimpse of the enormous figure dominating one side of the auction hall out of the corner of his eye, and dared not continue.
"In short, we've already reached a consensus: treat him on par with those three monster admirals in the navy. Don't be fooled by his rank of rear admiral; that old bastard Sengoku is wicked!"
"The sixth page of the World Economic Herald speculates that the reason White Wolf failed to be promoted wasn't because of that inexplicable declaration, but actually..."
He leaned closer and whispered, "You know Vice Admiral Tsuru, right? She's the dream girl of the older generation of naval officers."
"Back in the day, even Sengoku and the hero Garp were captivated by her!"
"Hmm... I think I've seen that before. What does that have to do with White Wolf not getting promoted?"
Snapped!
He slapped the back of his head.
"I told you to read more newspapers, and you think you know everything after reading just one issue!"
"Listen... Naval rumors say that Sengoku is pursuing Vice Admiral Tsuru, who is widowed, but Vice Admiral Tsuru... Sengoku only did that out of jealousy, sending him to a remote branch and refusing to promote him!"
"What?! Such a thing exists?!"
"You jerk! I told you to keep your voice down! If you keep yelling like that, I'm not taking you out next time!!"
……
Sometimes having too good hearing isn't a good thing...
Allen's forehead throbbed with a single nerve.
Because Morgans always featured him as the main character on page six of the Economic Daily, he had previously sought him out for a "secret talk".
After all the bird feathers were plucked, it finally behaved itself for a while.
Yeah, it'll only be for a short time.
After that, when I tried to find that jerk again, he learned his lesson and didn't come back.
Just as Allen was thinking about how to trick him into coming again, his attention was drawn to the noise at the door.
……
"Huh?! What?! There's an entrance fee? Do we have to pay to get into a place?!"
"How many!!"
"Five hundred thousand Berries! That's enough for countless lavish meals! Why don't you just rob someone?!"
The commotion at the entrance attracted more and more attention. A noblewoman covered her mouth with her folding fan and chuckled, her eyes revealing disdain: "Where did this bumpkin come from? He can't even come up with 500,000, yet he dares to come to the auction."
……
Ace, still covered in ice shards, turned to Teach and held out his hand: "Teach, do you have any money? Give me five hundred thousand!"
Teach reached into his pants and pulled out a coin, grinning with a toothless smile: "I only have two hundred."
"Two hundred, not ten thousand?! Don't you carry any cash with you when you go out?!"
"I thought you brought it, Captain Ace..."
-
Allen covered his forehead.
"Shiliu, go and bring them over. Don't let them embarrass themselves."
Shiryu immediately stood up, his back to Allen, revealing a ferocious expression.
That damned bastard! How dare he treat me like a servant!
Just you wait! Lord Shiryu...
……
……
Even when Ace was right in front of him, he still looked defiant.
"Hmph! Just because they're in the navy doesn't mean they're rich. They must have embezzled a lot!"
Allen tapped his knee lightly and said slowly, "Ace, I really don't like you."
"I've tolerated you time and time again because of your elders."
……
"elder……"
Ace's gaze softened: "Do you still remember Dad? Well..."
"Not Whitebeard," Allen interrupted him.
Ace's expression changed slightly, turning grim: "You're not talking about that person, are you...? Let me tell you, my old man only—"
"It's your mother."
Allen stopped, and said calmly.
"Compared to that mother, what is the mere Pirate King?"
"Cherish the life she gave you; this is my only piece of advice."
