Three days later.
East Blue, Loguetown.
"Vice Admiral Gion!"
"It has been thoroughly investigated; the Dragon Hunting Pirates did not appear in the Akoslan Kingdom."
"At the same time, Vendis, a high-ranking noble of the Akoslan Kingdom, appointed pirates as nobles."
"Additionally, pirate crews, led by the Mondost Pirates, have now become the Royal Army of the Akoslan Kingdom!"
The Loguetown officer quickly reported the intelligence.
This included not only information about Lu Yu but also the reasons for the pirate uprising a while ago.
"The Akoslan Kingdom, gave pirates status!?"
Gion looked at the intelligence in her hand, a puzzled expression on her face.
Indeed, if that were the case.
Then it would be normal for these pirates to flock to them.
After all, many pirates choose to become pirates because they cannot survive in their own countries or want to possess more.
Now, an Allied Nation is willing to grant them noble status; such a reason is completely irresistible to those low-ranking pirate crews.
"Do you know the current location of the Dragon Hunting Pirates!?"
Gion did not care at all about matters between these kingdoms.
They were just faithless individuals.
She didn't care what they wanted to do.
Moreover, Gion's purpose in coming to the East Blue this time was to apprehend that person!
"The Dragon Hunting Pirates haven't made a move since the last incident."
"However, if their target is the Grand Line, they will definitely resupply in Loguetown."
The Marine officer quickly said.
In front of Gion's powerful aura, he was completely without presence, like a small insect.
"Should?"
"Perhaps?"
"Immediately investigate their exact location, and then report back."
"By the way, your term in Loguetown has expired. Colonel Smoker will now take over as the Colonel of this branch."
Gion said calmly.
At the same time, she carefully compared the two pieces of intelligence in her hand.
Upon hearing Gion's words, the Marine Colonel felt as if a great burden had been lifted and left immediately.
"Hey, Smoker, can't you stop smoking in this cramped space?"
Gion looked at Smoker with a hint of complaint.
"Huh?"
"You want to ask me my opinion on this Dragon Hunting Pirates, right?"
"Actually…"
"No, I just want you to extinguish your cigarette."
"I don't like this smell."
Gion saw Smoker trying to change the subject and immediately interrupted him.
"Then I'll leave?"
Smoker said, and then directly left the office.
Seeing Smoker leave, Gion also smiled.
She opened the window and watched as Smoker, as she had expected, left with Tashigi and a group of Marines.
How could that guy calmly stay when facing such a pirate presence?
…
On the high seas.
"Is it really okay to let Luo Erji act on his own?"
Looking at Luo Erji's pirate ship, which had already disappeared, Najeta slowly said.
After all, in Najeta's eyes, Luo Erji was not yet a qualified pirate!
After all, that guy's brain-dead remark when he left, "I am already a qualified pirate + n,"
Coupled with his extremely stiff body, it was hard to trust him.
"No problem."
"Because the Marines' target right now is us, the Dragon Hunting Pirates!"
Lu Yu said with a relaxed expression.
At the same time, the Ama no Murakumo in his hand kept swinging.
That's right, daily training and cultivation still needed to be done.
This would allow Lu Yu to understand his strength better.
As the Captain of the Dragon Hunting Pirates, Lu Yu needed to be strong enough!
"Is it us?"
"The Captain's wisdom is beyond my comprehension!"
"I have to say, with such a Captain, things will be much easier, won't they?"
Najeta waved her hand and said with a smile.
The most important thing was that in the current situation, it seemed that waiting and seeing was the best option.
"Najeta, let your Susanoo fight me."
"I will not use Tsukuyomi; I will only use my own abilities."
Lu Yu stopped swinging.
His physical strength and basic techniques had been cultivated enough.
Now, what needed to be done was actual combat.
Akame… forget it, that guy's Murasame is too buggy.
Moreover, when facing companions, her strength directly drops by half.
As for Tsukuyomi, as Lu Yu's Imperial Arm, it could not inflict fatal attacks on Lu Yu.
So, Susanoo was the most suitable.
"Understood."
"Susanoo!"
"Fight the Captain; try your best to defeat him without killing him."
Najeta directly gave Susanoo the command.
"Understood!"
After Susanoo finished speaking, he immediately took out his large club.
"Be careful, don't let me kill you!"
After Lu Yu finished speaking, his entire body disappeared from its original spot.
Assassination Technique — Ambush Step!
At this moment, Lu Yu wasn't truly gone, but rather moving in a special way.
He would appear in the opponent's blind spot, and then quickly shift his position.
This was an ability extracted from Akame, and with his current increase in strength, he could utilize it even better.
"Bang!"
The next moment, their weapons collided.
"Mr. Lu Yu, although you used Ambush Step, you might have forgotten."
"I also possess the Observation Haki of this world."
"Ambush Step, with this excellent tool, has no effect whatsoever."
"So…"
"Bang!"
Before Susanoo could finish explaining, Lu Yu's foot had already struck.
A tremendous force instantly erupted in Susanoo's stomach, directly kicking him flying.
"This move…"
"As expected of Captain, your previous slash was just preparation for this one, wasn't it?"
Susanoo said, his aura beginning to change.
Soon, a huge magatama appeared, then transformed into a vortex soul.
"Vortex Soul Manifestation!"
Susanoo immediately activated his hidden ultimate technique.
As for the Life setting, it had already been fixed by the system.
When Susanoo used his ultimate technique, it would consume reputation points.
1000 per hour.
This was seen in Susanoo's introduction.
If it was only 1000 reputation points, Lu Yu could still afford it.
"Yata no Kagami!"
Susanoo immediately activated his ability, Yata no Kagami.
Although this ability shared the same name as Kizaru's ability, it had no relation whatsoever.
Susanoo's speed instantly surged.
Even Lu Yu could only barely keep up with his speed.
Coupled with the attack enhancement of Ama no Murakumo, Lu Yu had no choice but to unleash his full Armament Haki to boost his strength, speed, and high defense.
Their battle immediately activated the self-protection ability of the Extremely Evil Battleship.
Otherwise, by the time their battle ended, the ship would probably be gone.
…
"Dinner is ready!"
Akame and Tsukuyomi brought out the food.
At this moment, their battle was still ongoing.
"Brother Lu Yu really trains desperately!"
"Yes, it's no wonder the Captain's strength is so great."
"Is this how he cultivates? Amazing!"
The three bystanders all expressed their opinions.
