Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 412: Lone Wolf Becomes a Pair (asking for monthly votes~)

That's right!

Affected by the butterfly effect brought by Red, the jailbreakers gathered by Festa to conspire with him include more than just the devil's offspring Barrett.

Even Redfield, who had not yet found the Bat Fruit, the Mythical Beast, and the Vampire Form, was dragged onto this pirate ship by him.

And based on the clues provided by Redfield, Festa successfully helped him find the vampire fruit.

Compared to the abilities of other mythical beast fruits, the abilities of the vampire fruit are very simple and crude...

Sucking the blood and lifespan of others, either to increase your own power or to extend your own lifespan!

That's right!

This is a fruit with a powerful ability comparable to the surgery fruit, which can allow people to achieve conditional immortality!

And with the power of the vampire fruit, Redfield has now successfully restored his body to its best condition!
According to legend, he is a top-level warrior who can stand on par with Roger, Whitebeard, Golden Lion and other legendary figures with his own strength...

Today he is back again!!!

Similarly, even though he was imprisoned in a deep-sea prison without sunlight, Barrett never slacked off and trained himself day and night. His strength was even greater than that of Redfield!

"Don't hold me back later, old man."

"Humph! I should be the one saying this!"

In the dim shadows, two peerless masters walked out of the passage.

As both powerful men of the last era, Barrett and Redfield are no strangers to each other.

When Barrett was still in Roger's pirate group, he had crossed paths with Redfield more than once.

It's just fate.

Neither of them had imagined that after returning to the sea again after ten years, they two prisoners would actually unite together.

To know……

Both Barrett and Redfield are guys who believe in lone wolfism and only pursue self-empowerment.

The reason that brought these two lone wolf warriors together was not the Straw Hat Pirates who had been thriving on the sea recently.

On the contrary, Whitebeard was affected by Scarlet and not only did he not die on time, but his strength was further improved by the power of the Pokémon Template!!!
The time when Blackbeard broke into Impel Down was exactly the time when the Whitebeard Pirates destroyed the Navy Headquarters, Marinford, and then set off the second leap of life in the New World.

When the two of them came out of Impel Down, they learned that Whitebeard, a strong man comparable to Roger, was not dead or old, but was still very active on the sea...

The two people who were already suppressed by Roger completely lost the confidence they had in the original timeline.

Perhaps this is a common problem for every strong person who has experienced the Roger era. In their world, they think they have witnessed the world's strongest power.

So from the beginning to the end, they did not believe that there would be a force more powerful than Roger in this world.

They would never believe that the new generation on the sea would create a more wonderful world than theirs.

The same reason.

When they learned about the power displayed by Whitebeard, they both felt a sense of fear in their hearts.

Young Barrett might be better.

But Redfield, who had aged once, could not muster the courage to go against Whitebeard and others.

This also gave Festa an opportunity to unite the two Four Emperors.

In fact, if it were based on the era of 20 or 30 years ago, such a force would indeed be the best in the world.

But...they met the Straw Hat Pirates who were capable of changing the world and had already changed the world!!!
……

……

On the battlefield of Treasure Island, the battle between the Straw Hat Pirates and the Pirate Alliance is still going on fiercely.

Even though the Straw Hat guys set various restrictions on themselves, as time went by, the balance of the battlefield began to tilt little by little.

Even a strong man like Cavendish was beaten to a pulp by the Straw Hat Pirates and had no power to fight back.

"Damn it! Why are these guys so powerful?!"

Cavendish wanted to use his extreme speed to sneak attack Robin, but was kicked away by Sanji and pulled himself out of the rock with great force.

Looking at the figure who had his eyes covered but was still able to accurately kick away every powerful person with a bounty of over 100 million or a pirate minion...

An inexplicable chill suddenly surged into his heart.

Obviously, if he still couldn't see that the Straw Hat Pirates were using them for training at this time, then his title of Pirate Noble would be in vain.

But it was precisely because he saw through everything that Cavendish felt fear in his heart.

Because he couldn't see...

What is the true strength of these guys!
The unknown is the best nourishment for fear.

At the same time, inside the hidden castle.

Festa had somehow found himself sitting in a room full of screens, a satisfied smile on his face.

At this moment, a black shadow above the screen suddenly spoke:
"Is this the Straw Hat Pirates? They are indeed the youngest of the Four Emperors. Their strength is so terrifying."

"What should I do, guys? Nami, the witch from the Straw Hat Pirates, approached me a while ago and wanted to buy my company, but I scolded her out!"

"I really didn't know they were so powerful!"

"Is it too late for me to apologize now?!"

"Oh! It's too late. Just wait for death!"

"You are so brave to refuse the witch's deal~"

Above the screen, one after another, figures with a certain prestige in the underground world seemed to be in a chat group of friends, watching the performance of the Straw Hat Pirates on the treasure island while chatting about something.

And when Festa heard that these guys didn't praise the grand celebration he hosted, but instead praised the Straw Hat Pirates like dogs, the corners of his mouth that had been raised slowly fell.

Then his brows slowly furrowed.

Seeing that the group of underworld bosses he had expected was about to turn into a group of Straw Hat bragging, Festa finally lost his patience and suddenly interrupted the conversation of the underworld bosses.

"Humph~ That's why I said that the Great Pirate Era is nothing but the fantasy of a group of naive people!"

"I can't imagine that you, who were once so powerful, would one day lick others like a pug."

"More importantly, your lickspittle speech will not even reach the ears of the Straw Hat Pirates!"

"What pathetic fellows!"

Festa leaned back his short body, crossed his legs, and sneered disdainfully.

His undisguised sarcasm naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of all the underworld bosses.

"Huh!? What did you say!?"

A guy with an obvious scar on his face suddenly thrust his eyes towards the camera, as if he wanted to scare Festa on the opposite side with his gaze.

But Festa, who has two generals under his command, is now in a moment of unprecedented expansion.

In this era when Roger is dead and Whitebeard is not around, he doesn't think he will lose to anyone!
"Hmph~" Festa snorted again. Seeing that their eyes were focused on him again, a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Just wait, you will soon know to whom this era belongs!"

"When that time comes, we will catch you bastards one by one, kill you all, and completely purge this era!!!"

"What!?"

Hearing Festa's brazen words, even several underground bosses who originally didn't care much showed angry expressions.

However, Morgans, who knew a lot of secret information, suddenly smiled.

“Festa, you wouldn’t…” “You thought this was twenty years ago!?”

As Morgans spoke, the angry underground bosses slowly shut their mouths.

Although neither the Straw Hat Pirates nor the World Economic News Agency have ever directly admitted it...

But in today's underground world, everyone knows that Morganse and the World Economic Newspaper he runs have already transformed into the shape of the Straw Hat Gang!

Many times, important intelligence about the Straw Hat Pirates came from exclusive reports from Morgans.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that those reports were definitely not obtained by Morgans.

Especially after several former giants in the underground world were suppressed by the Straw Hats one after another, the World Economic News Agency, an important organization in charge of intelligence and public opinion, escaped.

As the Straw Hat Pirates were at their peak, Morganse's status in the underground world also rose.

“This certainly wasn’t twenty years ago!”

Festa answered confidently.

"In this era, there are no bastards like Roger!"

"Oh? So that's what you think?!"

It is also the mysterious smile of Morgause that has survived from the last era.

"In that case, I wish you good luck~"

Snapped.

The screen belonging to Morganse suddenly flashed and went out, which was very embarrassing.

"Run away? Coward." Festa sneered and turned his gaze to other underground bosses.

It’s a pity that after the purge of the Straw Hat Pirates, the underground bosses who are still left are somewhat shabby.

Even Festa, a guy who is out of touch with the times, looks down on them.

"Forget it. You won't understand my ideals even if I tell you about them!"

"Anyway, you guys should just enjoy this new era that I'm leading!"

"An era full of war!!!"

"Hahahahaha..."

Festa let out a loud laugh.

At this moment, a dilapidated ship suddenly flew out from the depths of the seabed, and under the impact of the surging ocean current, it flew quickly towards the treasure island above.

then……

boom! ! ! !

The moment the dilapidated ship collided with the treasure island, there was a sudden violent explosion, which directly blew the treasure island into countless pieces.

"What...what's going on!?"

"Damn it! Why is it like this!?"

On the treasure island, the pirates who were being tormented by the Straw Hat Pirates had no time to react at all, and they fell directly into the sea below along with the exploding treasure island.

At this moment, they only felt that the world was full of malice towards them.

A carnival celebration turned into a fight against the Four Emperors.

Now, this towering island exploded directly, and below it was the sea that restrained all devil fruits.

This...are they still going to be allowed to live?!

Peng! ! !
Countless pieces of the island fell into the sea, creating huge towering water columns.

The debris flying from the sky and the roaring waves immediately caused a lot of damage to the pirates in the audience.

And those pirates who fell from the top of the surging ocean current suffered countless casualties.

have to say.

The total number of pirates killed by Festa alone is enough to rival the navy's performance in half a year!

"Is it going to start!?"

On the other side, the Straw Hat Pirates, who had already been warned by Red, were not surprised by the sudden explosion.

Instead, it seemed as if it had been prepared, having found a suitable foothold in advance and landed safely by stepping on the rocks.

After landing, Luffy and the others immediately looked towards the depths of the venue.

tread!tread!
At this moment, two figures slowly walked out of the smoke and came in front of everyone.

“That…that is…!?”

When Hailding, who had just climbed out of the sea, saw the two people who suddenly appeared, his face suddenly changed. He didn't care about Luffy beside him and shouted in surprise:

"impossible!"

"How could they still be alive!?"

"Oh? You know them!?"

Hearing Helding's roar, Luffy immediately became interested: "Hey, big guy, do you know them?!"

"Of course!"

Helding first glanced at Luffy, and then his eyes like copper bells trembled rapidly.

At this moment, he seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness that had just happened with Luffy, and instead treated Luffy as someone in the same situation as himself.

"Those two guys are Barrett, the Devil's Heir, who was a contemporary of Roger, and Red Redfield, who is as famous as Roger!"

"I remember that the Navy newspaper said that the two of them were already dead!?"

"Why are they here!?"

Hailding, who just celebrated his 80th birthday, seemed to recall his experiences 20 years ago when he had just become an adult.

"Oh? So they are such powerful people?!"

Luffy looked surprised when he heard Helding's explanation.

After all, Chihong only told him about Barrett and didn't mention a word about Redfield.

After hearing that the guy was a strong man comparable to Roger, Luffy's eyes flashed with a gleam of light.

He had originally wanted to compete with the strong men of that time, but he didn't expect to be given a pillow when he felt sleepy!
"Lonely Red!?"

“This celebration is so interesting!!!”

at the same time.

After seeing Redfield's figure, Chihong was also stunned for a moment.

After all, he never imagined that the two legendary lone wolves who only believed in themselves would appear here in pairs.

"Things...are getting interesting!"

His red eyes flashed, and an excited look appeared on his face.

He has long wanted to experience the power of the vampire fruit!

After all, that is a rare fruit ability in the world of pirates...it can extend a person's lifespan!
