Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 409: Strong Debut (asking for monthly ticket~)

"Welcome all the notorious pirates to this pirate carnival which has not been held for 30 years!!!"

“I think everyone has experienced the joy of the carnival!”

"Now, let's get to the point!!!"

Whoosh! ! !
Peng! ! !
A brilliant fireworks display that could be clearly seen even during the day suddenly lit up in the center of the island. As the host's emotional voice came from the speakers, tens of thousands of pirates around the venue instantly cheered.

Its loud voice was enough to overturn the entire venue.

"It's really lively~ Hehe~!!!"

In the air above the venue, the Straw Hat crew, who had been having fun on the pedestrian street, were now standing at the railing of the Merry, overlooking the venue from above.

The host below continued to preach loudly according to the script:
"I believe you all still remember the newspaper reports on this Pirate Carnival, right?!"

"One day when the Age of Exploration was about to begin, Roger, who had become the legendary Pirate King, found this island beneath our feet and buried an extremely valuable treasure here."

"That day, he also left these words: In the deep and towering darkness, our answer is buried!"

"Hehehe~"

The host suddenly smiled sinisterly, then opened his arms and laughed loudly at all the pirates around him:
"Okay, everyone!"

"This is a challenge from Pirate King Roger to future generations!"

"Today, let us solve this mystery and take all the treasures for ourselves!!!"

"So……"

"This Pirate Carnival is officially open!!!"

“Wow~——!!!!”

The moment the host's voice fell, the entire venue was once again filled with intense and loud cheers.

One after another, the pirate ships rushed into the rapids channel built using the island environment like a stream of heroes crossing the river.

"Hey, hurry up, the event seems to be starting soon!?"

"Wait a minute, Captain, the ship next to us is about to hit us!"

"Damn it! How dare you cut in on my team? Guys, raise your guns and teach those pirates a lesson!!!"

boom! ! !
In the crowded corridor of the boat, a burst of blazing fire suddenly rang out.

Immediately afterwards, the fire seemed like a signal to start a war. Before the pirate ships entered the official challenge venue, the battle between them had already officially begun!
Treasure hunt! ?
That's just a gimmick!

Who knows if the Pirate King really buried some extremely precious treasure here! ?
But the supplies and treasures on the neighboring ship really exist!!!

These pirates were already capable of all kinds of evil, so at this moment, they naturally would not follow any rules. They took advantage of the chaos to attack and plunder their chosen targets.

How could a pirate gathering be without gunfire and bloodshed?!
of course.

Not all pirates are uninterested in One Piece's treasure.

Many pirate groups have already begun to enter the main venue prepared by the organizer based on their own abilities.

Among them...whether it is the famous Handsome Pirates or the newly established Giant Soldier Pirates, all the pirate groups with a certain reputation on the sea are in this list.

at the same time.

The host's words also aroused great curiosity among the Straw Hat Pirates.

"The Pirate King's treasure, is this true!?"

Nami, whose eyes had turned into the shape of money without her knowing, clasped her hands together and her tone revealed her anticipation.

Usopp on the side interrupted with a wave of his hand:
"You can imagine that this is impossible, right?! If someone really found the treasure of the Pirate King, how could they possibly call a group of pirates to fight for it together?!"

"Wow~ Usopp, you are so wise!"

Chopper, who had just been immersed in the treasure of One Piece, was suddenly awakened by Usopp's words, and then he looked at Usopp with admiration as if he suddenly realized something.

"Hum~"

Usopp rubbed his nose proudly.

But unfortunately, not everyone can remain rational under the halo of the three words "One Piece".

Among them, the most prominent one is...

"Hey! Luffy, I'm just excited, but why are you drooling?!"

Looking at Akame whose eyes were shining and who could no longer hear what was said outside, he shook his head helplessly, walked forward, grabbed Luffy's shoulders and pulled him down from the railing.

If he didn't take some action, he was really afraid that Luffy would jump directly from here to the meeting hall below.

Luffy, who was dragged down, seemed to finally come to his senses and shouted excitedly:
"Hey, Red!"

"Did you hear that?! There is the Pirate King's treasure here!!!"

"Should we land the Merry quickly and fight them for the treasure?!"

"Please~" Red glanced at Luffy helplessly, "Do you really believe that guy's nonsense?"

"but……"

Chihong's tone suddenly changed, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Even though they knew that we, the Four Emperors, were here, these guys still wanted to get their hands on the treasure... This seems to be a bit too much of a disregard for us."

The fact that the Four Emperors Straw Hat Pirates arrived at the island is no longer a secret on this island.

After all, when Luffy and the others were fooling around on the pedestrian street, Akane saw a lot of spy-like guys wandering around them.

Chihong suddenly turned around and smiled at his companions behind him:

"Everyone, don't you think that these pirates below don't take our title of the Four Emperors seriously enough?"

"We have to go get the treasure anyway, why not..."

"How about treating all the guys below as enemies!?"

"oh!?"

When the Straw Hat team heard Red's proposal, their eyes suddenly flashed.

Uta, who has a personality very similar to Luffy and is eager to create chaos in the world, jumped up directly from his seat.

"Becoming enemies with everyone!?"

"This is so cool~!!!"

"Before fighting Hawkeye, it might be a good idea to warm up with these guys."

"Wait a minute, there are thousands of ships down there. If we rob them all, it will definitely bring in a huge sum of money!"

"Haha, it seems like everyone is in high spirits~"

Seeing his companions suddenly become passionate, his red face suddenly became fierce:

"Well then... let's teach these guys a lesson on proper etiquette when meeting the Four Emperors!?"

"Get ready, guys!"

Whoosh~——Bang!!!

Another brilliant firework bloomed right above the venue, also heralding the official start of the treasure hunt event related to One Piece.

But at this moment...

buzz~
A dense and chaotic noise suddenly sounded above the heads of the pirates who had already entered the venue.

At the same time, a huge shadow suddenly blocked the center of the venue, making the originally bright sunshine disappear in an instant.

"What's going on? Is this also something the organizer did?!"

All the pirates looked up immediately.

But the next second, their expressions were replaced by horror.

"What...what is that!?" A pirate raised his hand in panic and pointed to the sky.

But before he could get an answer, a subtle sound suddenly came from the sky:

"Must-kill · 10,000 Insects · Small Fish Filter!!!"

In an instant, a large swarm of insects turned into a giant palm and slapped him off the deck with one palm.

Then the swarm of insects began to swam rapidly on the deck of the pirate ship like a mad top.

Wherever it passed, all the pirates it touched were knocked out of the water.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of the pirate groups were eliminated.

At this time, the gloomy sky returned to clearness again.

The powerful pirates who cleared out the insect swarm immediately raised their heads and looked towards the sky again.

Soon they saw a row of figures standing steadily in the sky, looking down at them like gods.

"The Pirate King's treasure is mine!!!"

The excited Luffy had no idea how unique his current identity was. He still shouted his determination to all the competitors below as he did before.

But he never thought about how much shock his shout would bring to the pirates below.

"What!? The Four Emperors are here to fight for One Piece's treasure too!?"

"Damn it! Is it necessary to provoke the Four Emperors for a fake treasure? He doesn't really think that it is the treasure of the Pirate King, does he? "

"What should we do? If the Four Emperors also want to participate, we won't have the slightest chance of winning!"

"Hmph! Arrogant fellow, sooner or later I will kill all of you and sit in that position myself... But now..."

"Guys! Let's retreat!!!"

No one expected that Luffy could wipe out 80% of the remaining pirates just by shouting.

In a blink of an eye, only a few dozen pirate groups were left in the center of the venue!
And these people, who were able to pass Usopp's filter of small fry, were naturally not ordinary people.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the Straw Hat Pirates, with unknown meanings flashing in their eyes.

"The Four Emperors Straw Hat Pirates..."

Cavendish held a rapier in his hand, his exquisite eyes fixed upwards.

He certainly wouldn't want to retreat like this and give up the main purpose of coming to this island.

But becoming an enemy of a powerful group like the Four Emperors Pirate Group is also not something a rational person should do.

"us……"

After much hesitation, Cavendish finally decided not to take his companions on the adventure.

But at this moment, an unpleasant voice suddenly came from beside him.

"Hey! You are the pirate nobleman Cavendish who has a bounty of 330 million berries on his head, right?!"

"Huh!?" Cavendish turned his head and saw a dark-skinned man with a cunning face and a long tongue sticking out, shouting at him.

Next to him stood a sturdy man holding a steel shovel and with a chameleon on his head.

"Brother Caribou!?"

Cavendish frowned.

The fact that he could show such an expression naturally meant that he recognized the identity of the person opposite him.

Caribou, a great pirate famous for killing marines and quickly gaining 220 million berries, and his brother Cribb.

“Hahahaha~ It’s so rare to be recognized!”

Caribou smiled sinisterly, and then suddenly invited Cavendish:

"But I'm telling you..."

"You should feel unhappy too, right?!"

"What four emperors... they are just guys who have been out to sea for a short time like us, yet they are so high and mighty that they destroy all our hopes!"

Having said this, Caribou suddenly lowered his head, making the shadow on his face more obvious, and laughed evilly again:

"Are you interested in joining forces with us!?"

"I have just contacted several pirate groups, and all of them are powerful warriors with bounties exceeding 100 million!"

"There are so many of us here, there's no need to be afraid of the Four Emperors Pirate Group!"

"This……"

A hint of hesitation flashed across Cavendish's face.

As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.

Almost all of the guys who can come here have achieved today's achievements smoothly under the law of survivor bias.

They have never encountered failure, and since they have outstanding abilities, they naturally develop an arrogant and conceited character.

Especially when they have never seen what true strength is, they simply cannot understand...

Sometimes, the gap between people is greater than that between people and pigs!
At least in their opinion, dozens of pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million are enough to overthrow any royal court!
"it is good!"

After thinking it over again and again, Cavendish suddenly nodded and accepted Carib's invitation.

Although given his identity and personality, he didn't want to be associated with an ugly person like Caribou.

But if they could defeat the Straw Hat Pirates, he would be able to top the headlines again...

"Done!"

The brave ones will die of overeating while the timid ones will die of starvation. How can they become the Four Emperors?!

“Hahahaha… wait, I’ll go and join forces with the others!”

Hearing that Cavendish agreed to join, Caribou immediately grinned and waved his hands to signal his men to move closer to other ships.

at the same time.

In a hidden tower.

"Damn you Straw Hat Pirates! How could they do this!?"

As the organizer of this celebration, Festa pressed his whole face against the glass, gritting his teeth as he watched the pirates gradually fade away under the tyranny of the Four Emperors.

"Damn it! Don't you pirates have any dignity of your own!?"

"Don't go! Come back here!!!"

"If you all leave, who will start the war!!!"

Festa was furious.

After a moment, he slammed the table as if he had realized the reality, and then ordered his subordinates around him:

"Activate that device in advance!"

"We must not let anyone escape again!"

"Yes, Chief Festa!!!"

A guy sitting in the control room shouted immediately, and then he pressed a red button on the table.

Boom...

The violent shaking suddenly spread throughout the entire island.

And a huge whirlpool suddenly appeared on the water surface in the main venue, as if something strange was about to come out.
