HxH in One Piece World

Except for Maud.

Seeing the Aokiji that suddenly appeared, everyone present, including Sabo, was shocked.

Chong——!

Sauron drew his sword again.

On the other hand, everyone else made preparations to attack at the first time.

Bartolomeo's reaction was faster, and he opened the barrier without thinking, protecting everyone in the barrier.

This was his subconscious reaction, but he didn't take into account that if the green pheasants released the cold air to freeze the barrier, then, even if they were not frozen to death, they would probably die from lack of oxygen.

"Ah la la..."

Looking at the straw hat gang who were waiting in an instant, Aokiji scratched the back of his head habitually.

Judging from the reaction of the Straw Hat gang, Aokiji realized that the group of people in front of him probably didn't know that he had joined the Maud Pirates.

Thinking of this, Aokiji first glanced at the pale Robin, and then looked at Maud beside him.

The matter of introducing the current identity is left to Maud.

That seems more convincing.

Feeling the gaze from Aokiji, the corner of Maud's mouth twitched slightly, looking at the overreacted Straw Hats, and chuckling: "Don't be so nervous, Kuzan is no longer an admiral, but my crew."

"what!?"

"Aokiji is no longer an Admiral!?"

"Hey, compared to this matter, Aokiji's joining the Maud Pirates is a more important event!"

When they learned that Aokiji had become a member of the Maud Pirates, everyone was so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

This is the Admiral of the Navy!

After quitting the Navy, he joined the Maud Pirates and became a member of Maud's command.

This kind of thing is simply shocking news for the Straw Hat Pirates at this stage.

Robin looked at Maud in disbelief.

When Qingzhi appeared just now, Robin thought that it was because of her appearance on the Marin Fando battlefield that Qingzhi repented and let her free, so she came to the door specially.

But never thought...

The man in front of her, who was extremely fearful to her, quit the navy and chose to join the Maud Pirates and become a member of Maud's subordinates.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, even she would think this kind of thing was a fantasy.

"Well, anyway, as you can see, I'm now a pirate in the Maud Pirates."

Looking at the group of straw hats whose eyes almost fell out of shock, Aokiji said lazily:

"However, although I am no longer in the navy, if I see 'hate' pirates, I will still take action. My captain is still very tolerant about this."

"Um?!"

Hearing Aokiji's words, the Straw Hats who had just loosened their nerves tensed up in an instant.

That's right.

Even if Aokiji renounces his status as a navy admiral, there is no rule that he, who has become a pirate, can no longer carry out his righteous stand...

Moreover, killing each other between pirates is the most normal phenomenon.

Thinking of this, the Straw Hats looked at the green pheasants with vigilance.

"Ah la la."

Feeling the vigilant gaze from the Straw Hat gang, Aokiji shrugged and said lightly:

"You don't need to be so vigilant. As I said just now, I only take action against the 'hate' pirates. From the current point of view, I don't hate you now."

"what?"

The Straw Hats were shocked, and they didn't expect Aokiji to say such a thing.

Chopper was so shy that he even twisted the seaweed dance.

However, only Robin, Zoro, and Sanji, the more thoughtful crew members, could hear the meaning of "present" and "now" in Aokiji's words.

Just as the Straw Hats' group's mood shook, the sky seemed to be covered with dark clouds, and a large shadow suddenly shrouded in it.

It was Jaya who controlled the terrifying three-masted ship, falling out of the clouds and slowly falling to the island below.

"!!!"

"That is……"

Seeing the Terror Barque, the Straw Hats were shocked again.

In just half an hour, their hearts were subjected to multiple strong pressures.

"Yohoo!"

At this moment, loud laughter resounded from the sky.

A black and white figure fell from the side of the horror barque.

bang bang—

The figure stepped on the moon, moving lightly as if stepping on layers of invisible stairs, descending layer by layer with an extremely elegant posture.

The Straw Hats couldn't help looking at the figure who came with a strange laughter.

This figure is naturally Brook.

The Terror Barque had not yet finished landing, and he who could easily use the Moon Step followed Maud and Aokiji, and fell to the ground first.

"Laughing skeletons?"

"It's moving..."

After seeing that the other party was a skeleton frame, except for Luffy's eyes shining with stars, Zoro and the others all frowned.

As for Nami, who was less timid, and Usopp, who was not what he used to be, even Bartolomeo, who was usually fearless, turned pale with fright after seeing Brook.

And the most timid Chopper was even more straightforward, and was frightened and fainted again.

In this way, Brooke, who is already a member of Maud's subordinates, ushered in the first meeting with the Straw Hats in this way.

Sanji stared at Brook's exquisite and agile moonstep, his eyes twinkling.

He felt that the moon step was a very useful technique for him.

Under everyone's attention, Brook fell to the ground lightly.

Followed by the terrifying three-masted ship that slowly landed on the side of the island.

Looking down from a height, it looks like two tables, one large and one small, are joined together.

In fact, since he has never been able to find the island where the festival will be held, Moder actually thought about using Jaya's fluttering fruit ability to collect the islands he encountered along the way, and then put them together into a super huge island.

However, his idea has not been formally implemented.

Anyway, as long as Jaya's ability and accuracy are gradually improved, it is not difficult to implement the [Island Transfer] project.

The terrifying three-masted ship landed steadily on the sea, and then, many crew members of the Maud pirates headed by Jaya Lafayette boarded the island and came to Maud.

"The Straw Hats?"

Luo hugged the ghost and cried, and squinted at Luffy, who was also a supernova.

"what?"

Luffy looked puzzled when he sensed Rowan's seemingly meaningful gaze.

Luo withdrew his gaze, didn't look at Luffy more, and didn't speak any more.

This behavior made Luffy a question mark.

Maud looked up at the early sky. Considering the number of people, he looked at Jaya and suggested, "Sister Ya, dinner can be prepared."

"OK."

Jaya nodded slightly.

"dinner?"

Hearing the word "dinner", Luffy suddenly became energetic and said with great interest: "If you want to prepare dinner, there is a kind of rhino with long sharp horns in the forest on the island, and their meat is very delicious!"

"A rhino..."

Hearing this, Jaya tilted her head to look at the dense forest in the distance.

The rhinos living in the forest aroused Jaya's interest.

Sanji suddenly said: "Strictly speaking, you are regarded as 'guests', there is no reason for guests to prepare meals."

"..."

Jia Ya heard the words, turned to look at Sanji, and said calmly: "You are also a chef."

"right."

It is rare for Sanji not to lose his temper because of female sex.

Jaya was silent for a while and asked, "Then do you know how to cook 'food supplements'?"

"Food food?"

Sanji frowned and said, "What is that?"

"Since you won't, just wait for dinner. Of course, I don't mind you coming to fight."

After Jaya finished speaking, he went straight to the forest.

Sanji frowned and looked at Jaya's back.

He became interested in the dietary supplements that Jaya said.

Because of the existence of Maud, the oversized butterfly, the original plot began to run wild.

Although Luffy got his wish to save Ace from death, the members of the Straw Hat Pirates lost an original opportunity.

Despite Saab's intervention...

However, the current Straw Hat Pirates are obviously not qualified to enter the new world.

But the arrival of the Maud Pirates this time may bring some clear changes to the future of the Straw Hat Pirates.

At least, after being killed by Maud, Luffy is already holding back the motivation to run hard to become stronger.

Subconsciously, he has regarded Maud as a target.

the other side.

Maud came to Usopp.

"Usopp, I heard Chopper say, you made a handsome new weapon?"

With that said, Maud glanced at the scepter-like thing that Usopp twiddled and hid behind him.

"Master, I, I..."

Usopp was obedient, couldn't say half a sentence, and looked like he had done something wrong.

"What's wrong?"

Maud looked at Usopp strangely.

Usopp lowered his head and stammered, "I, I gave up the gun."

"yes……"

When Maud heard the words, he took another look at the weapon that Usopp had hidden behind him, and smiled: "In this way, you have found a weapon that is more suitable for you."

"what?"

Usopp looked up at Maud.

After seeing the smile on Maud's face, Usopp realized that Maud was not angry at all for giving up the gun.

He chose firearms because he dreamed of being a sniper as powerful as Maud.

But the experience along the way made him knock on the door of the new world, and at the same time, he saw with his own eyes a very powerful guy, and also deeply recognized his own weakness.

He is very clear.

If he can't cover the armor color on the buckshot that is fired, then he can't really cross the threshold of the new world.

It's just that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't wrap the armor on the lead bullet.

That technique is really hard.

In desperation, Usopp gave up firearms in favor of weapons similar to large slingshots.

Compared with firearms, using slingshots or bows and arrows will greatly reduce the difficulty of attacking with armed colors.

This is the change Usopp made in order to improve his combat effectiveness as soon as possible.

But when he saw Maud, Usopp felt that the change he had made was tantamount to betraying the belief that originated from Maud.

How could Maud imagine that Usopp would make up such a mess on his own, he looked at the weapon behind Usopp and stretched out his hand.

"let me see."

"Ah, okay."

Usopp hurriedly handed the new weapon to Mord.

Maud took over the weapon, and the first feeling when he started it was that it was quite heavy, and the structure was similar to that of a slingshot. The only difference was—

The top of the slingshot is usually a "Y" structure, and the top of Usopp's weapon is like five fingers that are open, and on the cloth pocket connected by five rubber bands, there is even an empty island shell.

Not only the cloth pockets, but also the sticks are also covered with relatively small air island shells in an orderly manner.

Judging from the appearance of these air island shells, it should be mainly wind-blown shellfish and impact shellfish.

The former, as the name suggests, is a kind of air island shell that can eject strong wind, usually acting as the power source of small boats or Weiba.

This air island shell is one of the modification materials that Maud wants to equip on the horror barque.

The latter is a combat-type air island shell that absorbs impact and then releases it.

Strictly speaking, as long as the size, quantity, and even the upper limit of the absorption limit are met, such an air island shell that can absorb the impact force may be able to absorb the impact-based attack similar to the [Hegemony].

Usopp put the shock shell on the stick, thinking about the battle after the sniper was approached.

Really running hard on the road to becoming stronger.

Maud smiled knowingly and asked curiously, "What is the name of this weapon?"

"Black pocket."

Usopp answered quickly.

"Black pocket, very good weapon."

Maud fiddled with the black pocket a little and said, "Can you let me try it?"

"no problem!"

Usopp was excited.

For him, there is nothing more gratifying than being recognized by Maud.

"Luo, find me a similar stone."

Maud changed the black pocket to his left hand, and then stretched out his right hand towards Luo who was not far away.

Hearing Maud's request, Luo's mouth twitched, but he opened the field obediently and transferred a stone of similar size to Maud's right hand.

"Thanks."

Maud smiled at Luo, then pressed the stone on the cloth pocket, and a slight click could be heard, as if the pre-release switch of the shock shell had been triggered.

"First of all...pull back."

Maud held the black bag in his left hand and the cloth bag in his right, and pulled it backwards. The whole movement was as standard as he was pulling a bow.

"Afterwards, the color of the weapon is attached."

Maud thought for a moment.

snorted.

Armed colors emerged from Maud's fingertips, surrounding the stones like a dragon.

"And then..."

Maud stared at a mountain on the left side of the island, and he took aim at it, and immediately released the cloth bag.

Boom-!

Accompanied by a sharp cracking sound.

A stone with a strong armed color entangles it, piercing the air fiercely, like a comet, shooting towards the distant mountain at an extremely fast speed.

At the tail of the armed-colored stone, there are circles of white air waves visible to the naked eye.

boom!

The armed-colored stone slammed into the top of the mountain in the blink of an eye.

The terrifying power that came from the package suddenly erupted.

In an instant, most of the top of the mountain cracked into countless rubble, which fell like raindrops.

"what!!?"

Usopp, as well as Bartolomeo and the others, all opened their mouths wide, looking in shock at the half of the mountain that had been destroyed by a fist-sized stone.

"The power of the black pocket...is it so perverted?"

Everyone suddenly looked at Maud, who was amazed at Heidou.

"No, it must be because the people who use it are too perverted!"

Usopp couldn't think in his heart.

However, after seeing Maud's teaching-like demonstration of the black pocket, Usopp seemed to see a clear goal.

"One day, I will reach a height like Master!"

Usopp secretly clenched his fists, cheering himself up in his heart.

At the moment when I finally decided to change my weapon, it was really nice to be able to meet Master!

The arrival of Maud seems to have brought some kind of opportunity for the Straw Hat Pirates at this stage.

When they step onto a stage in the future that is more cruel than the battlefield, facilitated by Maud, they may not be so powerless, nor will they be optional supporting roles.
