Chapter 78: One Slash
As dawn breaks and everything gradually awakens, the pirates on Jaya Island, as always, come and go in an endless stream on this special island.
At the dock in Mogu Town on Jaya Island, dozens of pirate ships of various sizes were currently moored, with other pirate ships still arriving or departing.
"Look, that's the Scythe Pirates. I heard their captain has a bounty of 9900 million Berries, and they're incredibly ruthless!"
"Tch, you're so ignorant. The Scythe Pirates are nothing. Look at that big ship over there, those are the real pirates, the Giant Bear Pirates. Their captain's bounty is already over 100 million Berries!"
Wow! That's amazing!
Several dockworkers were whispering amongst themselves about the pirate ship moored in the harbor; the port was unusually lively today.
Ugh!
Just then, a long cry came from the sea, attracting the attention of many people in the port.
A huge two-masted sailing ship slowly sailed towards the harbor, a pirate flag fluttering in the wind atop its tall mast.
"Look, that ship is..."
"The Mad Axe Pirates, whose captain is Morgani with a bounty of 190 million, what's he doing here??"
A gasp of astonishment erupted as the pirate ship approached the port. Almost all the dockworkers stopped what they were doing, and even a small pirate crew watched the vessel.
"Hooray! My little guys, once we get to the island, let's eat, drink, and play to our hearts' content! Damn it, this journey has been so boring!"
On the deck of the Mad Axe Pirates, a giant man standing at least four meters tall was raising a wine glass and shouting loudly, the wine spilling all over his thick beard.
"Oh!!"
"Roar!!"
"Captain is awesome!!"
Monkari's words caused the pirates on the ship to cheer and raise their glasses in a loud drink.
"Huh? What's that in the sky?"
"Hey bro, what's wrong? Got too much to drink and your eyes are playing tricks on you? What are you looking at?"
On the deck of the Mad Axe Pirates, two pirates who were drinking were suddenly struck by something terrifying: a ship was plummeting straight down from directly above their vessel.
"Captain... Captain Montecristo... There's a ship... There's a ship... It's falling from the sky..."
The first pirate to spot the ship falling from the sky immediately yelled, attracting the attention of all the pirates on deck, including Captain Moncari.
"Hooray! It's said that ships sometimes fall from the sky in the waters around Jaya Island, and I, Mad Axe Monkari, never expected to encounter one!"
Moncari tossed aside his wine glass, grabbed a giant axe, and strode toward the bow of the ship.
"Men, prepare the cannons! Blast this wrecked ship to pieces! I want to see what exactly fell from the sky onto this ship from Jaya Island!"
"Artillery! Prepare the artillery!"
At Captain Morgan's command, the pirate ship erupted in chaos as the pirates began their busy work.
Meanwhile, those falling from the sky onto the ship were even more panicked.
"Ah! Captain, we're almost there! At this speed, the Freedom will be destroyed! Think of something, Captain!"
Slad gripped the handrails tightly with both hands, anxiously shouting to Mu Chong, who was still enjoying the rapid descent at the bow.
"Huh? Are we almost there? Hahaha! I didn't notice!"
Upon hearing the shout, Mu Chong immediately sat up, turned his head, and saw everyone on the deck staring at him angrily.
"Hahaha! Relax, relax! It's alright, it's alright! Let's prepare to stop the ship!"
Mu Chong flicked his long robe and began to give orders!
"Enel, stabilize the Liberty and use the propellers and the Wind Shell to slow it down. Slade, use your giant Somersault Cloud to drag the Liberty and slow it down. Everyone else, hold it steady, hahaha! Leave the rest to me!"
As Mu Chong's voice rang out, everyone on the Freedom instantly sprang into action.
Lightning flashed and white clouds rose, instantly stabilizing the rapidly descending Freedom and slowing its descent. But it wasn't enough.
"Hehehe! Stop, Liberty, we're back!"
Mu Chong crouched on the cat's head at the bow, pressing his hands against it. White ripples emanated from his hands, quickly merging into the hull of the Liberty. The Liberty's descent slowed visibly until it gently floated towards the sea.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Just when everyone thought the crisis was over, a series of booming sounds came from below, and black shells shot straight into the hull of the Freedom.
"Captain, someone is firing on the Freedom!"
Baku, who had been standing on the edge of the boat, quickly shouted loudly at Mu Chong.
"Meow!!"
"Damn pirates, I'll tear them apart!"
Slade, transformed into a white cloud, poked his large head out from the cloud, his eyes blazing with fire, and said...
"Cloud Shield"
"Discharge"
Two sounds rang out, and all the shells flying towards the hull of the Liberty exploded in mid-air, causing absolutely no damage to the Liberty.
The moment the explosion rang out in the sky, all the pirates at Jaya Island Port looked up at the sky.
"Look at the sky!!"
"What's that? Did it fall off the ship?"
"The Mad Axe Pirate Ship is attacking the downed ship!!"
choke!
At the same time, Mu Chong, standing at the bow of the Liberty, drew the white snake.
"Welcoming me back to the sea in this way is practically suicide!"
call!
As Mu Chong spoke, he jumped off the Freedom, his body instantly landing at the same height as the Mad Axe Pirate Ship. Facing the group of pirates about twenty meters away, he curled the corners of his mouth.
"Captain Montecristo? That man?"
The pirates on the Mad Axe Pirates' ship were dumbfounded. How could someone jump off the ship? How could someone be hovering in mid-air on the sea? Why was that person swinging their sword at the pirate ship?
Indeed, Mu Chong, who was stationary on the sea, swung the white snake in his hand without hesitation.
A massive, pure white serpent, twenty meters in diameter, charged towards the Mad Axe Pirates, its fangs bared.
Sheathed the sword and turned around.
boom!
boom!
The Freedom returned to the sea, and Mu Chong safely stepped onto the bow of the Freedom. Almost at the same time, a huge explosion came from behind Mu Chong.
"The ship?...Destroyed?"
"Hiss... One slash? The Mad Axe Pirates are gone?"
"Who is that person? He's too strong! That's the Mad Axe Monkari with a bounty of 190 million!"
"Huh? That ship looks familiar..."
The explosion on the sea made everyone in the harbor gasp. Right before their eyes, a large pirate crew had vanished. Shock was etched on everyone's faces.
Everyone stared intently at the Freedom, which was slowly approaching the shore, eagerly awaiting the arrival of someone aboard.
"Hey, Captain, there's a guy in the sea who's not quite dead yet!"
On the deck of the Freedom, Enel walked to Mu Chong's side and whispered, his Observation Haki sensing that Mad Axe Morgani was still alive, the only survivor in the sea.
"Ah! Never mind Enel, he's lucky to have survived that attack. Let's just leave it at that!"
As they spoke, the Liberty ship docked at the port of Jaya Island. Under the watchful eyes of numerous pirates in the port, Mu Chong and his group slowly disembarked from the Liberty.
The group consisted of five people and a white cat. Each person was dressed in a white robe, tall and handsome, and there was also an adorable one. As soon as they appeared, they caused a stir among the surrounding people.
Wow! So handsome!
"Who are they? Why are they making such a big fuss about landing on Jaya Island?"
"Was that slash from that man? He's incredibly strong!"
"That's...a chivalrous hero? It's a chivalrous hero..."
Finally, someone who had seen Mu Chong recognized them, and this person's shout immediately made all the pirates' hearts tighten.
His reputation as a hero was quite influential in the first half of the Grand Line, and he even garnered attention in the second half.
The legendary hero suddenly appeared before them, instantly enlivening the surrounding pirates.
Click!
"Hahaha! The captain's pretty famous here!"
Enel ate an apple while observing the reactions of the people around him and muttered something to himself.
"Hehehe! Captain, why are you wearing a hat?"
Aisha, who had been following Mu Chong, looked at him and suddenly said something.
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
This caused everyone to burst into laughter, and they entered Magic Valley Town in a cheerful atmosphere.
