One Piece: Starting with the enslavement of Wano Country!

Page 17

Inside the research institute, Vice Admiral Eris leisurely enjoyed a cup of hot tea.

He had quite a few complaints when he was first transferred here.

What a load of bullshit! Vegapunk's hometown and research institute! He, a dignified vice admiral, is guarding such a godforsaken place.

However, after all these years, Eris feels that this place is actually not bad.

There are no dangerous missions to carry out, no need to hunt down pirates, no pirate attacks when it's too cold, and no need to deal with superiors.

All I need to do all day is drink tea and read the newspaper.

Anyway, I know my own abilities. It's impossible for me to be promoted to general. Lieutenant general is my limit.

If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to retire on this island?

It's really cold!

At that moment, a piercing alarm suddenly blared throughout the entire research institute.

A marine rushed in to report: "Vice Admiral Eris, something terrible has happened! Someone has infiltrated the research facility!"

Eris frowned, her expression displeased: "Who dares to be so audacious?!"

Are you crazy? Why would someone invade such a cold place?!

"Uh..." The marine stammered, unable to give a coherent answer.

They're used to being idle here and don't pay much attention to what's happening outside, since no pirates will ever come here anyway.

Eris didn't bother to scold him. After all these years, didn't he know what his soldiers were like?

He downed his hot tea in one gulp and ordered the marine, "Go and get another cup of tea. I'll go check."

"Yes, yes, Vice Admiral Eris, you're busy." The marine nodded hastily, as if he had been granted a pardon.

It's one thing to slack off and drift through life, but it's another to embarrass yourself in front of your boss.

On Baltimore Island, to put it bluntly, Lieutenant General Eris held absolute power of life and death. He could kill himself and no one would dare say a word against it.

Lieutenant General Eris had already stood up, grabbed a long sword from the table, and walked out the door.

Although I don't know which lunatic invaded such a cold island, I hope I can have some fun; it's been a long time since I've stretched my muscles.

Meanwhile, Kaidorello and his party strolled leisurely as if visiting a backyard garden.

The navy along the way has been killed by King and Englararic.

In order not to damage the research institute, Lei Luo specifically told the two of them to go easy on each other.

People who go in opposite directions will eventually meet.

Lieutenant General Eris, long sword in hand, strode towards them...

Chapter 26 You don’t want to either…

"Oh, so it's the apprentice brat from the Rocks Pirates and the fallen Rear Admiral of the Navy!"

Lieutenant General Eris leaned against the wall, a long sword slung over his shoulder, his eyes indifferent and a hint of disdain on his lips.

He recognized Kaido and Leylo at a glance, including their respective bounties.

Having been a newspaper reader in Baltimore for so many years, I haven't been reading newspapers for nothing.

After being stationed here, Lieutenant General Eris gradually came to understand the importance of Vegapunk.

Therefore, in his view, the reason why Kaido and Rayleigh's bounties were so high was entirely because they destroyed Vegapunk's research facilities.

Therefore, he completely disregarded the two of them.

Having served in the navy, Lei Luo recognized the man before him as a vice admiral.

Is a vice admiral staying in this remote, mountainous place to protect the research institute, or to threaten the brilliant scientist with Vegapunk's hometown?

This is a question that deserves serious consideration.

"I really was underestimated!" Lei Luo gripped his halberd and was about to step forward.

With his hidden strength and the Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, a Marine Vice Admiral would really be no match for him in a real fight.

Kaido's "Eight Precepts" were placed in front of Leylo, his neck slightly turning and making a cracking sound as he grinned maliciously, "Let me do it, Leylo, this is a good warm-up."

"Whatever you want." Lei Luo threw the halberd back into Stussy's world.

Eris was enraged by what he saw, veins bulging on his forehead: "Arrogance!"

Unable to tolerate the two arrogant pirates before him any longer, Eris drew his long sword and charged at Kaido with both hands.

Kaido didn't seem to take this so-called vice admiral seriously, and only slowly raised the "Eight Precepts" in his hand when the long sword was right in front of him.

Knives and clubs clashed, sparks flying everywhere.

Eris's fierce slash was effortlessly blocked by Kaido, no matter how hard he gritted his teeth and pressed down, it was to no avail.

With a single burst of Kaido's power, Vice Admiral Eris could not withstand his terrifying strength and staggered backward.

Vice Admiral Eris steadied himself, inwardly shocked, "This pirate has incredible strength!"

Kaido gripped the "Eight Precepts" tightly with both hands, grinned, and charged towards Eris, swinging his staff down.

Knowing he couldn't win by force, Eris naturally wouldn't fight head-on. His figure quickly disappeared, and Kaido smashed down a large wall with a single blow.

Lei Luo frowned and shouted at Kaido, "Hey, Kaido, don't fight here, go outside and fight. Don't destroy the laboratory."

A mere vice admiral is no match for Kaido, but at this time, Kaido was not so powerful that he could instantly kill a vice admiral.

Lei Luo has already considered this laboratory his own territory, and if a fight breaks out, the damage to this place will be enormous, which Lei Luo will not allow.

Eris, who had dodged Kaido's attack, was floating in mid-air using Moonwalk. Hearing this, she couldn't help but sneer, "Heh, how interesting, you can even choose the battleground!"

Lei Luo didn't mind; he was just a dying man. He had to find a way to lure him out of here. Vegapunk's research materials were priceless.

"I say, Vice Admiral, you don't want the research institute to be destroyed, do you?"

After saying those words, Lei Luo felt that something was off.

However, the effect was surprisingly good.

Eris snorted and used Moonwalk to head towards the laboratory door.

His purpose in being stationed here naturally included protecting the research institute from damage.

If a marine dies, you can report it to headquarters and send in another batch. But if the lab is destroyed, no amount of explanation will help.

"Orororororo..." Kaido, holding the "Eight Precepts," laughed loudly and flew after him.

After the two left, Raylo immediately gave orders to everyone: "Jin, you, Englararic, and Matitau, the three of you, clean up all the Marines in the research institute."

"Quinn, go and see what resources in the institute are worth your research."

"Yes, First Mate!"

Jin and the others responded in unison, but Matitao asked timidly, "First mate, don't we need to worry about the captain anymore?"

That navy officer was incredibly imposing. Is it really a good idea to leave the captain to fight alone?

Lei Luo smiled calmly and said, "You have to trust our captain! A vice admiral is no match for him!"

After hearing this, Mattitau nodded heavily: "I understand."

Outside the laboratory, the battle between Kaido and Eris was incredibly intense.

Inside the laboratory, everyone sprang into action.

Jin, wielding a long sword, moved through the laboratory corridors, and wherever he went, the marines fell one after another.

Englararic and Matitau, positioned on the left and right respectively, worked in perfect coordination, driving the resisting navy into a series of defeats.

Quinn, cigar in mouth, walked into the labs, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the various instruments and documents, muttering, "These are all treasures!"

He worked with Vegapunk for a period of time when he was in the MADS organization.

Everyone in the organization, including him, might verbally express some dissatisfaction with Vegapunk, but deep down they were absolutely convinced of his authority.

Vegapunk's victory over them wasn't just a slight one; it was a complete rout.

The research materials from who-knows-how-long that are still here are already worth studying carefully.

Seeing that there was nothing for him to do, Stussy smiled and stuck to him: "And me? First mate."

Just a mascot and a piggy bank, Rello didn't expect Stusi to do anything.

Lei Luo found a sofa and lay down, casually saying, "Go make me a cup of hot tea."

"Okay."

Stussy took out the tea set from the inner world of the door and obediently brewed tea.

After brewing the tea, Stusi held the hot tea in both hands and brought it to Reilly's lips.

Lei Luo took a leisurely sip of tea.

The captain is fighting, the crew is working, and his first mate is here having tea with his secretary.

If Stussy were to see her current state, it would be a huge shock to her former members of the Rocks.

Jin and his sister, Old En, quickly cleaned up all the marines in the research institute and returned to Raylo.

Lei Luo smiled and pushed the tea that Chastusi had brewed in front of them: "Have a cup of tea to warm yourself up."

Outside the research institute, the fighting between Kaido and Eris was gradually subsiding.

No vice admiral could possibly be a match for Kaido, unless that vice admiral is named Monkey D. Garp.

Moreover, Eris had been lying flat on Baltimore Island for many years, and his body was practically rusting.

A short while later, Kaido returned to the research institute carrying Vice Admiral Eris's body and threw it in front of everyone.

"Oh ho ho ho ho ho... Lei Luo, even this vice admiral is no match for you."

Lei Luo was speechless =_=

"Just throw him out. Why did you bring his body back?"

Chapter 27 The King of Loans

Chambord Islands.

Admiral Sengoku's warships have been lying in wait here for several days, but the Beasts Pirates' ships have not yet appeared.

Those reckless pirates kept making a ruckus, which made Sengoku, who was already in a bad mood, even more irritable.

If he weren't afraid of alerting the enemy, he would have given those lawless bastards in the Sabaody Archipelago a taste of the Buddha's Compassionate Palm.

"Bulu Bulu... Bulu Bulu..."

The Den Den Mushi rang, and Sengoku answered, "Air Marshal."

Without any unnecessary pleasantries, he got straight to the point: "Sengoku, you must go to Baltimore Island immediately. The Beast Pirates have attacked Vegapunk's research facility."

"How can it be?!"

Sengoku exclaimed in surprise, "I've been guarding the Sabaody Archipelago the whole time, and I haven't seen any of the Beasts Pirates' ships!"

After the Celestial Dragons were killed, he immediately rushed to the scene as ordered, then chased after them to Devil Town on Jaya Island, and then went straight to the Sabaody Archipelago.

It takes several days to coat a small ship. According to what he learned from the slaves, the Beast Pirates' ships are very large. How could they possibly coat them and sail to the New World in such a short time?

"The important thing now is not to delve into how they got to the new world.

Sora was also very puzzled by this, if they hadn't been coated and passed through Fishman Island to go to the New World.

Then there is only one possibility: they can, like the Golden Lion, take their ships and leap across the Red Earth.

However, no matter what, the Beasts Pirates cannot be allowed to do whatever they want anymore.

From destroying Punk Hazard to killing a Celestial Dragon, and now attacking Baltimore Island, the Beasts Pirates have been repeatedly crossing the line with the Navy.

"I understand, I'll set off immediately." Sengoku knew that this matter was urgent, so he hung up the phone and immediately ordered the warships to set sail.

He also casually slapped the pirate ship that had just arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago.

One palm strike, and both man and boat are destroyed!

My dream ended at the Sabaody Archipelago.
