Pirates, Start with the vampire fruit and rescue the empress

Shampoo Islands, Island No. 71.

On a remote coast, a three-masted sailboat docked on the shore. On the mast, a white flag was hung with an octagonal umbrella pattern composed of red and silver gray.

In the first half of the Grand Line, many pirates would subconsciously stay away from merchant ships flying the flag of the Umbrella Company.

This is because the merchant ship escorts of the Umbrella Company will be equipped with sniper rifles and javelin rocket launchers.

Under normal circumstances, when encountering a pirate ship, use a sniper rifle to kill it from a distance, and use rockets to blow up the ship directly from a medium or short distance.

Sniper rifles are okay, but using javelins and rocket launchers to blow up ships is really unbearable for those pirates!

This does not mean that in terms of firepower configuration, the pirates cannot use the cannons on the ships to sink the Umbrella Company ships.

But…

The main purpose of pirates attacking other ships on the sea is to plunder, not for pure killing and destruction.

At the end of the battle, people died, the ship was damaged, and the shells were wasted, but nothing was gained. But any pirate with a normal mind would not do such a painful thing!

By the way, this kind of rocket launcher, which is powerful enough to blow up ships, has already been officially sold under the instruction of Sephiroth, and there is an endless stream of buyers. Except for the purchases by some kingdoms to enhance the overall strength of the army, the purchase The largest group turned out to be shipping merchants…

Maritime trade is extremely profitable, but it also comes with great risks. In addition to the complex and changeable maritime climate, unscrupulous pirates are the biggest threat!

The Javelin bazooka, a reusable barrel, costs 50,000 Baileys and sells for 1 million Baileys. An armor-piercing shell costs 10,000 Baileys and sells for 200,000 Baileys.

Even though the price is so high, after the Umbrella Company’s rocket launcher became famous after bombing ships, countless orders poured in…

Due to the large number of buyers, orders have been placed until next year!

The Javelin rocket launcher is selling so well, it’s not like there aren’t other arms dealers who want to imitate it…

However……

Even if they scratched their heads, they couldn’t develop the special alloy Jim made with his abilities.

Without that kind of alloy, the things they made were just fake and couldn’t reach the performance and power of the javelin and rocket launcher!

This is true even for Umbrella Company’s other weapons that have special alloys added to them. They cannot imitate them at all, unless Umbrella Company is willing to sell alloy raw materials…

Therefore, the current Umbrella Company can be said to be the well-deserved leader of arms in the Chambord Islands. The arms it manufactures are circulated in the Grand Waterway and all over the world.

Tezzolo, who was wearing a pink suit, put his right hand on the edge of the three-masted sailboat and raised his left hand to look at the gold watch on his wrist.

There are only two minutes left before the agreed two hours…

He was very curious about how Sephiroth managed to get back to the Chambord Islands from the Kingdom of Dressrosa, which was nearly a thousand kilometers away.

Although his boss is often elusive and seems to pop up from anywhere, he still has some doubts in his heart…

Just at this moment, a slender red light flashed away on the coast.

Waves of space ripples quickly folded and squeezed to both sides, forming a two-meter-five-meter-high space door.

Wearing a black half-face mask and a blue suit, Sephiroth walked out of the light green door. His silver hair was still semi-wet. Apparently he had just washed it. hair……

Sephiroth jumped lightly from the shore onto the deck of the three-masted sailboat.

“Boss, are you really back from Dressrosa?”

Tezzolo looked at the boy standing next to him with a surprised expression.

“Yeah! I also took the time to take a shower and change my clothes.”

“…”

Sephiroth first glanced at the more than thirty people in black suits on the ship deck, and then he asked:

“Can you trust these people? We can’t be careless about this matter.”

“Boss, don’t worry! These are brothers you can trust.”

With a confident expression on his face, Tezzolo patted his chest and made a metallic sound of “Bang! Bang!”

That was the sound made by the golden armor he wore under his clothes.

Ever since Tezoro obtained the Golden Fruit, he has been working very hard to develop this Devil Fruit, and the results have been very good.

With the golden armor he made using his abilities, ordinary firearms and bullets can no longer hurt him at all!

This greatly improved his strength, even if he encountered

He can easily defeat some pirates with a bounty of tens of millions.

However, he was still a little confused about Armed Haki and Wisdom Haki…

“Then let’s go!”

“Boss, where are we going…?”

“It doesn’t matter where you go, as long as you have a favorable wind!”

“Ah! This…”

Hearing this, Tezzolo had an incomprehensible expression on his face, scratched his head, and gave orders to his men:

“Let’s set off and sail with the wind!”

The sails were raised, the three-masted sailboat put away its anchor, and slowly sailed away from the coast, heading towards the red earth continent.

After traveling a certain distance, a pair of black wings suddenly spread out from Sephiroth’s back. He lightly vibrated the wings a few times and flew to the direction of the three-masted sailboat.

On the endless blue sea, Sephiroth drew out the long knife from his waist, pointed it at the air not far away, and slashed with three red sword energy, forming a “work” in the space.

Click!

As he reached out and pushed, the two space doors slowly opened toward the inside, revealing the light green world inside the doors.

The inside of the open space door is about 70 meters high, 40 meters wide, and 100 meters long. It is a space cube.

The ocean can incapacitate Devil Fruit users and sink them into the ocean, but it cannot invalidate their abilities.

Therefore, even if Sephiroth plays rogue in front of the sea, the other party can only endure it silently.

As the water poured in, the three-masted sailing ship slowly sailed into this temporary space dock.

Tezzolo and a group of crew members stood on the deck. They looked at the light green space in their eyes with extremely horrified faces.

What kind of terrifying power does it take to create such a place?

Sephiroth, who was vibrating his wings and flying in mid-air, first closed his eyes and felt the vampire bats in the Kingdom of Dressrosa.

After waiting for a moment, when the temporary space moved to a certain place, he swung the knife out of thin air and cut out the word “work” again.

Wow!

On the broad blue sea, at a slightly inclined slope, the seawater in the green space poured out, and the three-masted sailboat also broke through the sea, bringing up a large piece of white waves, and fell heavily to the sea.

“This is……?”

Tezzolo stood on the deck, turned around and looked around. He looked at the red earth continent that was almost invisible in the distance. The horrified expression on his face could not be suppressed.

“The second half of the Grand Line…the new world!”

Sephiroth flapped his black flesh wings and slowly landed on the deck of the ship. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief.

With his ability to use the Gate Fruit, the larger the temporary space he constructs, the folded space, and the longer the distance he moves, the more physical energy he consumes.

Just from the Chambord Islands, through the Red Earth Continent, and shrinking here, more than half of his physical strength was consumed…

He needs to develop a technique that is more efficient and consumes less physical energy in the future!

After recovering from the shock, as a businessman, Tezzolo immediately associated this matter with business. He said with excitement:

“Boss, you are awesome!

If you use this ability for maritime transportation, our umbrella company’s maritime trade will definitely dominate the entire sea! ”

“Nonsense! I don’t want to work so hard every day just to make that little money…

Do you really think that my use of such large-scale spatial movement does not require a lot of physical energy? ”

Hearing this, Sephiroth immediately curled his lips and retorted unceremoniously, making Tezolo’s face a little embarrassed.

Sephiroth rested for about three minutes. He finally restored his physical strength to its peak state by consuming a large amount of reserve life.

Immediately afterwards, he repeated his old trick and loaded the three-masted sailboat into the temporary space again.

After four consecutive space shifts, everyone on the three-masted sailboat saw the Kingdom of Dressrosa appearing on the sea level in the distance…

Under Sephiroth’s instructions, everyone sailed the ship to the east coast and docked temporarily.

After waiting for a long time, Scarlet took Cyrus and twenty elite Royal Army troops onto the three-masted sailboat, and left the port with them, heading for their destination…
