Chapter 117: The Porcupine Pirates
Countless nautical miles from the Freedom, a two-wheeled sailing ship was slowly moving. The conventionally constructed pirate ship had nothing particularly special about it, except for the animal head on its prow, which caught the eye.
A large, fat head, two ears as big as palm leaves, two huge, gleaming tusks, and that signature nose—yes, it's a pig's head.
This is a small to medium-sized pirate crew that has only recently entered the Grand Line. Besides the captain, there are nearly fifty crew members on board, who are currently eating, drinking, and joking around on the deck.
"Hey! Old Ghost, that one last time was really good, I almost didn't make it out of the hot spring! Just thinking about it is thrilling!"
"Hehehe, that's because you're no good! Little monkey! I had two last night, and if the captain hadn't left in such a hurry, I could have had another one this morning!"
"You damn old devil! Who are you calling incompetent? Want to have a go at me and see if my gun goes off easily?"
"Hey, you two, shut up! If you disturb the captain, you might get thrown into the sea to feed the fish!"
The captain, as the pirates described, was currently dozing at the bow of the ship. His enormous, reclining body was so large that, were it not for his outstretched limbs, one would have mistaken the bow for a gigantic ball of flesh.
Porcupine Keton, captain of the Porcupine Pirates, has a bounty of 9600 million Berries. He is known in the North Blue for his ruthless and inhumane methods of killing. After eating the Zoan-type Porcupine Fruit, he felt his fighting power had skyrocketed and confidently entered the Grand Line.
At this moment, Keton, enjoying the sea breeze, had just departed from Drum Island and was still savoring the feeling of a beautiful woman's hand caressing his body the previous night.
Bang bang bang!
Suddenly, three gunshots rang out, jolting Keton awake from his dream. The beautiful woman he had been fantasizing about vanished. Enraged, Keton turned to the lookout tower, demanding an explanation from the lookout, or face death.
"Captain Keton, we've spotted a ship ahead. It's not flying a pirate flag, and it doesn't look like a merchant ship. Hehehe, but I see dazzling gold!"
The lookout put down his binoculars, leaned down, and shouted loudly at Keton on the deck.
"What? Gold?"
"Aaaaaah! Don't block me! The gold is mine!"
"Old ghost, get up! Let's go steal the gold!"
Upon hearing the lookout's words, the entire Porcupine Pirates crew erupted in excitement, their eyes gleaming with the symbol of Beli, eager for more.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
At this moment, Keton, standing at the bow, rose to his feet. His towering four-meter frame and obese body caused each step he took on the deck to produce a resounding thud.
"Hey! Quiet down, all of you! Men, grab your weapons and get ready to loot the gold! Kill all the men, but leave the women alone!"
Keton raised a huge double-edged axe beside him, pointing it directly at the ship opposite, his voice deep and powerful.
Roar! ! !
The pirates on board, upon hearing their ship's signature command, became incredibly excited, each one seemingly bursting with adrenaline and ready to pounce.
"Ahhhhhh!!!! Help me!!!"
"Hey! You bastard, you're shouting way too loudly! You're practically deafening me! Is it really necessary? Alright, your mission is complete, get down!"
boom!
A sudden cry for help, a voice filled with extreme disdain and complaints, and the lookout lying on the deck.
All of this plunged the entire Porcupine Pirates into a brief silence. The dozens of men looked, bewildered, at the lookout lying on the deck groaning, then at the strange man standing on the lookout tower rubbing his ear.
That's right, this man is Mu Chong. He flew over from the air when the pirate ship came into view, which is why this scene is unfolding.
Whoosh!
The next moment, dozens of guns were raised instantly, their dark muzzles pointed directly at Mu Chong on the watchtower. Other pirates, armed with various weapons, also angrily pointed them at Mu Chong. At that moment, they seemed to have forgotten that this man's appearance was extremely illogical.
"Damn it! Who are you? You've managed to sneak onto the ship! Get off right now, or we'll shoot!"
A pirate wielding a knife shouted loudly at Mu Chong.
"Hoohoo! Men, fire! Shoot him down!"
boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!
Captain Keton, his face grim, gave Mu Chong no chance to speak, and immediately began to kill.
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of guns fired simultaneously, bullets carrying intense heat flying towards Mu Chong.
"Tch! That's quite decisive!"
hum!
In the world of One Piece, drawing a sword or raising a gun at someone is considered a fight to the death. Although Mu Chong doesn't consider himself a pirate, he still hates being attacked.
With a wave of his hand, the Power-Power Fruit's power activated, instantly enveloping the entire pirate crew in a white ripple. The next moment, the bullet flying towards Mu Chong visibly stopped in mid-air.
To the astonishment of the entire Porcupine Pirates, the bullet flying through the air unexpectedly returned to Luffy's direction.
Puff! Puff! Puff! ...
"ah……"……
The sounds of bullets piercing flesh and the pirates' agonizing screams erupted from the deck in an instant, plunging the scene into chaos. In that single moment, the Porcupine Pirates lost half their fighting strength.
Boom!
"You bastard! Get down here! This is my boat, and you can't run wild here!"
Enraged, Keton didn't immediately consider why the bullet had ricocheted; instead, he angrily took a step forward and roared at Mu Chong.
boom!
Then, his obese body gathered its strength downwards, and with a loud bang, accompanied by the sound of the deck shattering, Keton's tank-like body was lifted into the air.
"Go to hell! You bastard!"
When Keton leaped higher than Mu Chong, he let out a cold shout, then raised his double-edged axe high and swung it down at Mu Chong head-on.
shave!
When Mu Chong saw this huge lump of fat fly up, his eye twitched inexplicably. In a moment of astonishment, his body vanished from the observation platform.
Kaden was startled by Mu Chong's disappearance, then felt a figure appear above him. Before he could look up, a foot as hard as steel kicked him in the head from above.
boom!
boom!
Click!
Keton's obese body fell from the sky like a giant cannonball, instantly shattering the pirate ship's deck and sending him hurtling towards the second basement level.
"hiss!!"
Dozens of breaths of cold air were inhaled by the standing pirates. At that moment, everyone stared blankly, their faces filled with horror as they watched the wooden boat slowly descend to the bow of the ship.
"Hey everyone! Stay put, I need to talk to your captain about something..."
"Damn it, beat him to death..."
Mu Chong smiled and greeted the pirates in front of him, but the next moment, one of the pirates, who looked like an officer, suddenly shouted.
Then, the remaining members of the Porcupine Pirates charged at Mu Chong, weapons in hand.
"Alas! How tragic is the path to death!"
choke!
"Draw Sword Slash - Guillotine"
boom!
Mu Chong's figure flashed through the pirates in a white light, then he twirled his sword and sheathed the White Serpent.
puff!
boom!boom!boom……
The next moment, blood gushed out behind Mu Chong, and headless corpses crashed onto the deck. The scene was extremely gruesome; anyone whose heart couldn't take it would surely faint upon seeing it.
"Alright! I'll see you off!"
hum!
Mu Chong turned around, his eyes filled with indifference. He raised his hand and activated his Power-Power Fruit ability, sending all the dead pirates flying into the sea.
In just a few moments, everyone on the pirate ship's deck, except for the pirates who had been shot and lay on the ground but hadn't died, vanished. Only the surrounding seawater turned red.
"Devil...devil...you are the devil..."
"Don't kill me...don't kill me..."
The remaining pirates stared at Mu Chong in terror, desperately trying to move away from him.
"Stay put... Hmm? Nothing? This is interesting!"
Whoops!
Just as Mu Chong was about to say something to the remaining people, a huge body burst out from below the deck.
Keton, gripping his double-edged axe, initially glared angrily at Mu Chong, but the next moment, upon discovering the situation on the ship, Keton was instantly filled with terror.
"Damn it, damn it! Roar!! Die, you bastard!"
The fear in his eyes turned to rage, and Keton swung his double-edged axe at the wooden spear.
call!
Swish!
Click!
Faced with the berserk Kaden, Mu Chong did not block or counterattack, but instead relied on his Observation Haki to easily dodge the axe blades.
