What was called a tent was actually a makeshift bar.
When Jon entered, a group of pirates were sitting there, drinking and laughing.
Seeing this man suddenly burst in, his gaze cold and clearly not to be trifled with, the pirates' atmosphere instantly froze. They all fell silent, their eyes filled with wariness and killing intent.
Jon ignored their gazes, a brilliant smile suddenly appearing on his otherwise expressionless face:
"Excuse me, who here can take the most punches?"
Silence descended.
Then, one of the pirates suddenly smashed a bottle, pointing at Jon and shouting:
"The one who can take the most punches is definitely Captain Buggy!"
After saying that, he glared at Jon with a look of bravado masking inner fear, as if to say:
Isn't it obvious who you're asking about?
However, he was also feeling nervous, as the "punch-resistant" Captain Buggy wasn't actually present.
This kid looked troublesome, like a pretty boy, but with a hint of ferocity.
But when he caught sight of his own people all around, his demeanor immediately turned fierce again.
"You dare to come alone to our Buggy Pirates to cause trouble? I think you're tired of living!"
Jon noticed their feigned composure and carefully scanned the faces of those around him.
He could confirm that Buggy the Clown wasn't here.
He must have left on his large ship.
Soru!
So Jon didn't waste any more words. After taking them out, waiting for Buggy was the same thing.
His feet moved in a blur, and he instantly vanished from his spot.
Immediately after.
Screams of agony erupted from the crowd, rising and falling in waves.
To Jon, these sounds were like a beautiful symphony, illustrating the refinement and perfection of his strength.
Makino, who had been trying to keep up, pushed open the door and saw Jon single-handedly brutalizing a group of pirates.
First, her eyes widened in disbelief, her mouth forming an 'O' shape large enough to fit a thick sausage.
After regaining her composure, she began cheering "Ganbatte!" with her hands raised, watching Jon perform his violent aesthetic.
A few minutes later.
Jon plundered the title of "Beast King" from Richie the Lion, which transitioned from purple to light red.
It was still a little short of leveling up.
No fun at all.
Jon kicked Richie's corpse aside, then turned to look at the frozen, statue-like members of Buggy's crew, smiling politely:
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry. You guys, can you tell Buggy to get his ass back here?"
"Yes, I'll call right now!"
The lead pirate shakily dialed the Den Den Mushi, and upon hearing his boss's voice, he almost cried.
"Captain Buggy, help! Someone's attacked the main base! Richie's been killed! Please come back quickly!"
"What!?"
The call didn't continue, because Jon, still smiling, kicked the "tool man" to death.
Just call Buggy back, why all the wailing?
So much unnecessary talk.
He glanced at the trembling pirates, then at the young woman at the door, who was both scared and excited.
Jon suddenly put on a serious face: "Zombies are approaching from outside, hurry up and come over!"
"Kyaaaah~!"
Makino was startled by him and quickly scrambled onto him, nervously peeking outside.
After seeing the dusty onlookers outside, she immediately burst out laughing.
With her legs wrapped around Jon, she playfully punched his shoulder:
"What zombies~? They're clearly just residents."
"Jon, you actually scared me, you're so mean!"
Makino: ?(^_^?)
Jon: (OvO)
...…
"Hey, stop selling things, come with me quickly!"
"What for? I haven't even collected the money yet."
"Stop talking nonsense! A monster has come to punish Buggy, he's almost wiped out the Buggy Pirates! Come and see!"
"Huh? Really!?"
"Just come, it's super lively in the south of the city right now!"
...
Similar conversations spread everywhere.
Like magnets, they attracted people from nearby, and before long, a large crowd gathered not far from Buggy's main base.
Everyone craned their necks to look inside, and some even took photos.
Jon completely ignored these people. During the boring waiting time, he found amusement in tormenting the pirates.
Thus, the cries from inside made the onlookers outside even more excited.
Gradually, cheers echoed all around—
"Hero! Hero! Hero!!"
...
Jon wasn't particularly fond of the title "hero."
Seeing that all the remaining pirates were either dead or unconscious, he lost interest.
"Where on earth did that Buggy go? He still hasn't come back."
Jon sat on Richie's corpse, staring boredly at the ceiling, then suddenly looked at Makino and said, "I've been fighting for so long, aren't you going to wipe my sweat?"
"I'd like to wipe it for you, but you're not sweating."
"You haven't even wiped it, how do you know I'm not sweating?"
Jon pulled Makino's arm and rubbed it vigorously against her chest.
"Mmm… you, you're sexually harassing me!"
Makino: (/w\)
Jon: ?
What Kalifa.
