Chapter 2 - A Swordsman's Might

Upon seeing this, Moonlight said, amused. Unexpectedly, after hiding a few times, he was regarded as an easy target. While the sword skills of lv1 might not run rampant in the East Blue, they were certainly sufficient to deal with a few petty criminals. Moreover, his Sword Draw had reached lv2, powerful enough to cut through hard iron! This level of power was considered masterful throughout the East Blue! Not to mention that under the influence of Armament Haki, his power was even more terrifying! If it weren't for the low level of Conqueror's Haki and the fear of affecting innocent people, he would have tried this ability that only the chosen few possess! Thus, Moonlight declined the traveler's kindness.

However, this scene, observed by others, led them to believe he was oblivious to danger and seeking death!

"It's true that a newborn calf fears no tiger. Young people don't know the vastness of the sky and won't understand until they hit a wall!"

"Hmph, some people seek death on their own; why even try to help?"

"Arrogant and ignorant!"

Everyone shook their heads and spoke with disdain. And several pirates even sneered!

"That's a bold statement, swordsman! You claim we 'little criminals' can't handle you? Very well, let us see the strength of your penniless swordsman!"

"Arrogant brat, you will pay for your words and deeds!"

"Idiot, you're asking for death!"

"Kill him and let everyone know the consequences of rebelling against us!"

As they sneered, they advanced towards Moonlight, their faces fierce, their swords glinting, full of murderous intent as they charged! They had clearly decided to kill!

"Sigh!"

The traveler who was going to help Moonlight also shook his head and sighed, then put down his Berries and left.

"Really? The consequences of rebelling against you?"

Hearing that, Moonlight smiled contemptuously, the Sacred Pheasant Sword raised, and a crescent-like sword aura slashed out!

"Three-Stage Cut!"

"Boom!"

The sword energy swept across, as fast as lightning, forming three stages, cutting towards the several pirates rushing over! The sword energy, powerful enough to sever hard iron, instantly struck several pirates! Their flesh and blood were no match! They were suddenly cut down by a single sword strike, blood spilling onto the deck, dead beyond revival! Moreover, the sword energy remained undiminished, carving a path through the cabin, slicing through tables, stools, and chairs wherever it went! It extended beyond the cabin before finally dissipating!

"This... this..."

"It's too exaggerated!"

"Is he a peerless master?"

"What a terrifying slash!"

Seeing this scene, everyone around couldn't help but stare at Moonlight dumbfounded, their faces incredulous. Several people who had ridiculed Moonlight dropped to their knees with a thud, utterly stunned! The traveler who was going to help Moonlight also looked bewildered, staring at Moonlight with an incredible expression.

"Gentleman, thank you for your kindness"

Upon seeing this, Moonlight smiled slightly and stepped out of the cabin.

"Koby, who is the most beautiful woman in the world?!"

At this moment, outside the cabin, a massive woman of 500 pounds, holding a mace, was speaking viciously to a small boy.

"Of course it's you, my Captain, Lady Alvida!"

Koby's legs trembled as he said, quivering.

"Hahahaha!"

Alvida laughed loudly, the fat on her face shaking exaggeratedly. The pirates all around laughed with her. In their triumph, they had not yet realized what had happened in the cabin.

"Alvida, Koby... it really is the One Piece World, and I actually came to this ship, where Koby and Luffy first met!"

Seeing this scene, Moonlight was completely convinced that he had truly entered the Pirate World. Suddenly, his heart swelled with excitement. In this Great Pirate Era, finding the One Piece was the dream of every pirate, and he was no exception. Now that he had entered this world with such a powerful system, he naturally wanted to search for it. Furthermore, as a One Piece fan, he naturally didn't want to see countless regrets from his previous life, such as the deaths of Ace and Whitebeard. And that blank century of history, he wanted to uncover it. Since being reborn, it was natural to figure out all this.

But going to sea wasn't so easy. First of all, there had to be a ship that could withstand wind and waves, and secondly, navigators and archaeologists were indispensable.

"In that case, it's better to get on Luffy's ship. Although I don't want to be the Pirate King , I want to know what the history is and what the One Piece truly encompasses."

Moonlight murmured, making up his mind.

"Captain, Captain, it's not good! A swordsman killed several of our brothers!"

"Captain, that swordsman is so powerful, he killed them with a single sword strike!"

"Captain, only you can deal with him!"

At this moment, a few pirates who had sensed danger ran towards Alvida.

"Trash! Why panic?! It's just a swordsman, isn't it? As long as it's not the Pirate Hunter Zoro, there's nothing to fear!"

Upon seeing this, Alvida roared, and the mace in her hand slammed down angrily.

"Crack!"

A large hole was punched directly into the deck, sending several rushing pirates flying.

"Are you the one who killed my men?"

Then she saw Moonlight and shouted. Without anyone else around, Moonlight walked out at that moment, holding the Sacred Pheasant Sword, making it abundantly clear!

"It's me."

Moonlight nodded and said lightly.

"Seeing that you have good skills, join us and become my subordinate! I will take you to the Grand Line and find the One Piece together!"

Alvida grinned and tried to recruit him.

"Heh, kid, you've got some skill, you can kill our brothers with a sword, but since the Captain has taken a liking to you, she'll spare your life, so don't be difficult!"

"Is there a swordsman on this kind of ship? But as long as it's not the Pirate Hunter Zoro, there's nothing to be afraid of! Our Captain is a famous figure in the East Blue!"

"Boy, you can't refuse! It's your blessing for our Captain to even consider you!"

A few pirates shouted beside Alvida.

"Heh, a few petty criminals, a broken ship, and you want to go to the Grand Line? You want to recruit me? You're not qualified!"

Hearing this, Moonlight said with disdain.

"So, you're saying you rejected me?"

Hearing this, Alvida's eyes narrowed, and murderous intent erupted!

"Nonsense. I'm being clear, are you deaf?"

Moonlight sneered.

"You're asking for death! Dare to speak rudely to our Captain, you brat are tired of life!"

"Incompetent swordsmen dare to be arrogant in front of our Captain! You probably don't know how powerful our Captain is!"

"Stop talking nonsense with him, Captain! Let us handle him, such a minor character doesn't need you to act!"

Several pirates immediately grew angry. They were murderous and fierce. How could they be afraid? Now, they were gearing up and shouting! As long as Alvida gave the order, they would kill him!

"Hahahaha!"

Alvida laughed loudly.
