The Black Prince of Pirates

The same news came one after another through different channels in a short period of time, and the authenticity of the information was confirmed from different aspects. Big Mom's mood was extremely bad. Kaido, an anticlimactic bastard, could be so simple as the Black Prince. The kid's peacemaking hasn't even lasted twelve hours!

The last time she fought with Elus for more than two days, this time... she was tricked.

Even though she had already gained the upper hand in the battle with the pirate guerrillas, she knew that if she continued to persist in the fight, things would not end well when that brat Eleus came over. She had not yet fought with him. The thought of starting a war in the Kingdom of Exmundo.

"Zefa! Get out of here."

Big Mom waved the giant sword in her hand, and the giant sword wrapped in flames collided with Zefa's fist. Although the sword's edge did not break through the armored and domineering defense, Zefa couldn't help but step back due to the powerful and strange power. Seizing the opportunity, Big Mom launched a combo attack.

Zefa was forced out of the Queen's Singer and returned to the deck of his ship.

Well, it’s not entirely accurate to say that he was forced back. If Zefa really wanted to fight Big Mom on the Queen’s Singer, it wasn’t impossible. But he also heard the news and immediately Understand that Big Mom suddenly changed his fighting style. Instead of trying to kill him with all his moves like before, he changed it to expulsion.

From this change, he realized that Big Mom no longer had the spirit to attack. Zefa also responded accordingly and left the Queen's Singing in cooperation. Not only that, he immediately found the messenger general when he returned to the ship. New orders are passed on as quickly as possible.

The situation on the battlefield changes again,

The warships and pirate ships that were originally entangled were once again clearly divided into two camps. Coincidentally, both sides maintained enough restraint. No one fired at the opposite side, whether it was the pirates or the pirate guerrillas. , everyone restrained their desire to attack.

It's just that compared to the solemn and solemn momentum of the pirate guerrillas, the Big Mom Pirates no longer have the aggressive fire-like momentum before. Although it can't be said to be depressed, it is obvious that it has been worn away. With a lot of energy, they clearly had the upper hand, but they were ordered to restrain themselves from pursuing the victory.

This is very shocking, especially for the pirates who rely on their fierceness to run rampant. No one likes this situation.

"mom!"

Cracker came to Big Mom's side - his true body was still hidden in the shell of the Biscuit Man. Through the shell of the Biscuit Man, he looked at the big sword in his hand with worry. His hair was disheveled and his breath was turbid and gloomy. It was like a mother who had an evil spirit coming to the world, and she was very worried that her angry mother would suddenly become ill.

Without Katakuri's brother in charge, he didn't have much confidence that he could stop his sick mother with only Snag's help.

"Clark, pass the order, let's get out of here."

"Ah? Yes! Mom."

He doesn't care much about the outcome of this battle, and he didn't lose in the first place. It's just that the original plan failed due to uncontrollable variables. Compared with this kind of thing, he cares more about his mother not getting sick and maintaining a clear mind. This made him quietly relieved.

Snag stood nearby, watching Brother Cracker give orders, but his mood was not as relaxed as Cracker.

After finally joining the ranks of generals, he worked hard to prepare for a big fight, intending to prove to his mother, brothers, sisters, and everyone who was watching him that he was indeed qualified to bear the title of general. This opportunity was regarded by him as a stage to show off his talents.

However, before he could show off his talent, the stage collapsed.

"We can only find another opportunity."

Snag was not easily defeated and lost confidence. This small setback was quickly forgotten by him and he began to look forward to a new stage.

······

Heavy rain poured down, and the fleet of the Big Mom Pirates gradually moved away in the wind and rain.

"Teacher Zefa, aren't you going to pursue me?"

Iska came flying from the nearby ship with her sword in hand and on moon steps. She looked quite embarrassed. Many wounds could be seen under her tattered sleeves, and dark red blood stains stained the sleeves. Color, facing an opponent like Cracker who could crush an ordinary lieutenant general, she was still at a disadvantage.

The miracle brought by Bengyu made her swordsmanship directly into the realm of swordsman. The armed domineering spirit that had been lingering outside the door also came directly into the room. It turned out that she was just a second lieutenant of the Navy Headquarters. After accepting the gift given by Bengyu After her miracle, she was already comparable to ordinary lieutenant generals in the Navy Headquarters.

however,

After all, this is just an ordinary lieutenant general.

Cracker is the long-renowned general of the Big Mom Pirates. Among the lieutenant generals of the Navy Headquarters, except for Garp and Lieutenant General Crane, even the two general candidates are not necessarily qualified. Be sure to defeat Cracker.

Iska's ability to hold off Cracker's attack is already a great achievement.

"It's useless to catch up." Zefa shook his head.

Iska was speechless, indeed!

There was no point in chasing after her. She might have angered Big Mom, and a big fight would cost a lot of people. Although she hated pirates, she wasn't so paranoid that she wouldn't see it. Know the difference between ourselves and the enemy.

She was silent for a few seconds and said: "Teacher Zefa, His Highness and the Beasts stopped fighting not long ago, and are currently negotiating with the Beasts." Her identity is the captain of the Navy of the Kingdom of Ekmundo, and she was originally just A second lieutenant, but with her current strength, after destroying several pirate groups, she was promoted to the rank of captain of the kingdom's navy.

This is already the third-ranked military rank in the naval system of the Kingdom of Aikmundo.

Further up are the colonels and generals.

With her current status and the fact that she was a confidant recruited by Elus, she was quite well-informed. During the fierce fight with Cracker, the phone buzzed for a long time. When Cracker retreated, When she rushed to the flagship, she answered the phone bug and learned what happened in Elus.

"Negotiate?"

Zefa narrowed his eyes and made no comment.

If it was him in the past, he would definitely not be used to this kind of negotiation with pirates, but now... He can't stand it now either, but who asked this kid Elus to help him cure it? Despite his serious illness, he has been providing him with logistical assistance. In addition, he also understands that Elvus cannot help himself.

New world,

It's impossible not to deal with pirates in this place.

There are so many World Government member countries flying white-bearded flags, Big Mom flags, and red-haired flags... all of them were expelled without even seeing the Holy Land, even if they were officials of the World Government. The old men also understand that the new world is not easy to mix with.

As long as you don't blatantly raise your flag and go against the World Government, the gentlemen above will not be idle looking for trouble.

Zefa also knows that it is impossible to fight to the death with the beasts, and negotiation is the inevitable result.

"Ain, Binz, good job."

Zefa turned his head and saw the two students staggering towards him. Looking at Ain and Binz who came back with their beards and tails intact, the old man's heart was relieved. The recruits in that boat survived in the end. The guilt of the two of them for the dead students was involuntarily transferred to Ain and Binz.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, that Snag is very capable, we can only pester him."

Ain, however, lowered his head in shame.

Only she and Binz could stop Snag alone. Especially Iska, who was about the same age as herself, stopped Cracker by herself. The most feared thing between people is to be compared. En compared herself with Iska, and suddenly felt deeply uneasy. She felt that she had failed her teacher's painstaking teachings and had not made much progress over the years.

Binz talks little, but when Ain does the talking, he usually doesn't speak and just stands quietly aside like a wooden figure.

"Ain, you did a great job."

Zefa comforted the shocked students with gentle words.

"It is already very good to have such skills at your age. Don't compare with others. Our goal in training is to surpass ourselves, not to compare with others." And some people are incomparable.

The old man didn't say the last words.

As a well-known teacher at the Navy Headquarters, he has taught many outstanding students. However, only he understands that he is never the most powerful. He does not have the ability to turn waste materials into geniuses. He is just better at guiding. and tap the potential of students.

In the final analysis, the students already had good qualifications, and all he did was to use faster and more comprehensive methods to let these students reveal their true nature earlier.

The talents of Ain and Binz can only be said to be above average among the students he has taught. They are incomparable to those freaks like Porusalino and Kuzan, and even the second-rate geniuses are the same. It is not comparable to Ain and Binz. If there are no accidents, Ain and Binz's future achievements will be limited to lieutenant generals.

Of course, there are no unexpected circumstances.

Zefa's eyes drifted to Iska, who was once his student. Unlike Ain and Binz, Iska accepted Zefa's teachings together with many others. In his opinion, Iska His talent is almost the same as that of Ain, and without the bonus points brought by the Devil Fruit, strictly speaking, it is not as good as Ain.

However, Iska now has the combat power of a lieutenant general level.

Comparing the memory of meeting at the Navy Headquarters, Iska has really undergone earth-shaking changes. This is not a result that can be obtained through step-by-step training. It must be an accident that exceeds ordinary concepts and makes Iska completely transformed. improvement.

It is not difficult to imagine that this accident probably came from Elus.

"Elvus..." Zefa narrowed his eyes and looked to the southwest. He always felt that there was a thick fog in front of him, covering his eyes and preventing him from seeing Elvus clearly. Si’s details.

----

Deserted island, harbor.

The storm caused by manpower quickly subsided without the support of the back force. The dark clouds that covered the sky slowly dispersed, and the clear and bright moonlight fell on the deck, in the basin-sized wine cup. , the clear wine was stained with a touch of silvery moonlight.

"Good wine! Good wine! The wine of the giants is indeed strong enough!"

Kaido sat cross-legged on the deck, holding the overly large wine cup and drinking it all in one gulp.

"As long as you like it."

Eleus said with a smile.

Fran, who was standing by her side, moved the equally huge wine vat and poured wine into Kaido's empty wine cup. Such strength made Kaido couldn't help but take a second look, and then... This caring talent , the governor who likes to recruit strong combat power, even if he is an enemy, as long as he is willing to surrender, he will take the Beast Pirates under his command regardless of past suspicions. At this moment, he is thinking of recruiting talents again.

"Little girl, do you want to join my pirate group? I can give you a big job position."

Kaido dug a corner in front of Elus.

Eleus rolled his eyes.

"I'm sorry, I'm just a little maid. A position as valuable as a big sign should be reserved for someone more powerful!" Fran refused neatly.

Kaido smacked his lips regretfully. He really wasn't pretending. With his eyesight, he could tell at a glance how powerful Fran was. She was no less powerful than the big posters under him. If it weren't for the wrong location, he would I really want Loveland to join the Beast Pirates.

It's a pity, this is the Black Prince's ship.

It's okay to just mention it. If the entanglement continues and angers the Black Prince, he may have to continue the previous fierce battle.

At this time, a maid quietly walked up to Elus, whispered a few words, and then hurriedly left.

"Big·mom left."

Eleus didn't hide it, and directly said the news conveyed by the maid just now.

"About 5 minutes ago, Big Mom's fleet left my kingdom."

"She has always loved taking advantage and never suffered a loss." Kaido sneered, but it was just a mockery, and then changed the subject, "Boy, the wine you have here is good, but now it should be about the same. Give me an explanation."

He stared at Eleus with his eyes wide open, and the terrifying aura like a demon was exuding unbridled.

In the corner of the deck, Dylan and Jack were also sitting opposite each other drinking. The battle between Elus and Kaido was temporarily suspended. Of course, they had no reason to continue fighting. Jack did not go back to his tattered Instead, the Mammoth followed Kaido to Eleus's ship.

Of course, the fact that he and Dylan were sitting and drinking at each other didn't mean that they had a friendship, but that Dylan felt that Jack was a dangerous factor and needed to be watched closely at all times.

So there is such a scene.

As the atmosphere between Elus and Kaido changes, so does the atmosphere between the two of them.

"If, I mean, if! If I can provide you with animal devil fruits, a large number of animal devil fruits, I wonder if you can eat them?" Elus said slowly.
