"Looks like we've run into a big fish this time!"
"Captain!"
Bondi World put down his binoculars and casually handed them to a gnome-like man with a broken-horned helmet on his shoulder.
"Cough, cough..."
Binjack, the man World called 'Captain,' coughed twice, then raised the binoculars with his skinny, withered hand, his face changing instantly.
With shock and worry on his face, he coughed twice and advised World, "Cough, cough..."
"That's a ship from the Rocks Pirates. We... we shouldn't clash with them."
Whether it was because of his size or an illness, Binjack's voice was rather small.
Bondi World gazed at the pirate ship on the distant sea, his face firm as he said, "I don't care about any Rocks Pirates. All I, Bondi World, know is that their ship must have a lot of stuff, treasure!"
"Captain, without money, how can we build the pirate ship of our dreams!"
"Whatever stands in my, Bondi World's, way, I will make it disappear!!"
His loud voice shocked all the pirates on the deck, and everyone fell silent.
World turned to look at his three executives, his eyes fierce, and said in a cold tone, "Three minutes. Deal with the enemies within three minutes. Don't exceed the time I set!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"..."
A huge fish-man with blue skin stood up instantly, his face full of strong confidence as he said, "Three minutes is more than enough time."
"Let us go and destroy that ship!"
Whoosh!!
The fish-man, Sebastian, jumped up, leaping from the ship's deck into the air, and with a thud, he crashed into the sea, creating an explosion-like sound and splashing a large expanse of sparkling waves.
He was a hybrid of fish-man and giant, causing his body to be several times larger than that of an ordinary fish-man.
On the deck.
Just as the other two executives were about to land on Sebastian's back, Binjack on World's shoulder exclaimed, "There are... there are enemies coming from the sea!!"
Holding the binoculars, he clearly saw a figure on the sea surface rapidly approaching the pirate ship by swimming.
"Huh?!"
Bondi World was immediately surprised, then laughed loudly, "Warorororo... I didn't expect them to have the courage to fight back!"
"But no matter who it is, they can't stop me, Bondi World!"
"Men, open fire!!"
"Blast that guy in the sea to pieces, let him become fish food!"
Under his command, the pirates on the ship immediately lit the fuses of the cannons, and the sparks burned, spreading rapidly with a hissing sound.
Dark and cold cannon barrels fired cannonballs one after another.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
In the cold sea, Ares quickly swung his arms back and forth, and with a powerful kick of his feet, he stirred up a large expanse of waves.
He was the one rapidly approaching World's pirate ship in the sea!
"The captain said that battle can hone a person into an indestructible famous sword!!"
"After so many days of training, my body has long been hungry and thirsty!"
"I want to fight!!"
Ares looked up at the sky, and as cannonballs fell, he immediately dived, changed direction, and dodged the bombardment.
Splashing water and surging waves could not stop him at all.
The thought that the enemy had powerful opponents made the blood in his body boil and heat up, even in the cold sea.
Time shifted back to one or two minutes earlier.
On the pirate ship.
When he heard from Ochoku that the opponent was an extremely powerful opponent, Ares's eyes lit up instantly, like a beast seeing a delicious prey.
Then, before Ochoku could react, he jumped into the sea with a plop.
"Nani!?!?"
Ochoku was instantly dumbfounded, his hand trembled, and he almost pulled off the black beard on his chin. He immediately looked panicked and shouted at Ares in the sea, "Hey!!! Ares!!"
"Come back quickly!!!"
But in the howling wind and roaring sea, his voice was lost among the others, making it impossible for Ares to hear clearly.
"Damn it!" Ochoku cursed inwardly, his heart filled with anxiety. "This is a real problem now."
"That guy is really reckless!"
Frustrated, he slammed his fist against the iron-clad ship's side, leaving a dented fist mark.
Too brave!
Too reckless!
Their opponent was the infamous Byrnndi World Pirates, whom the Marines had repeatedly tried to capture, only to fail miserably, even suffering heavy losses.
Ares charging over like that was no different from suicide!
Ochoku's face darkened, and he quickly made a decision. He immediately shouted to the pirates on deck, "Change course, prepare for battle!"
After giving the order, he turned to look at the sea.
His face was full of worry and tension. "Ares, you can't let anything happen to you!"
"If something happens to you, Shiki and Newgate will tear my armor off!"
His heart was filled with anxiety, anger, worry, and endless curses!
In the sea.
Sebastian, a fish-man officer of the Byrnndi World Pirates, poked his head out of the water, a disdainful smile on his face. "How foolish these pirates are, abandoning their comrades to sneak into the sea and attack alone."
"In the sea, we fish-men are supreme!"
His face was cold, and he wore an air of confidence, as if victory was already in his grasp. Then, his head disappeared beneath the surface.
His entire body was like a "torpedo" missile, swimming rapidly towards Ares in the water.
As a fish-man with Giant Tribe blood, he inherited the Giant Tribe's massive size and immense strength, even their enviable "lifespan"!
But he also retained the characteristics of the fish-men. In the sea, four words described him perfectly: like a fish in water!
On the pirate ship.
World raised his hand, signaling to stop, and sneered, "Cease fire. With Sebastian's skills, that guy won't last thirty seconds!"
He had great confidence in the strength of his subordinate officers.
Especially in the sea, where the fish-man Sebastian had an innate racial advantage that was impossible to overcome!
His gaze fell on the "Ochoku" on the opposing pirate ship, wearing golden, shiny armor that stood out. "Ochoku, a Rocks Pirates officer..."
The corners of his mouth curled into a sinister smile. "I wonder how long he can last in my hands?"
Binjack on his shoulder reminded him with a worried expression, "World... cough cough... you mustn't be careless!"
"The opposing pirate ship has already changed course, which means the guy in the sea is extremely important. Ordinary pirates..."
"Cough cough..."
"They would have given up long ago!"
He knew that the Rocks Pirates were an extremely cruel and pragmatic pirate crew.
They would never abandon their escape and start a head-on war for the sake of an ordinary pirate!
Byrnndi World smiled, causing his green beard to twitch. "It's too late. Sebastian is already close to that kid!"
As he spoke, he took out a pocket watch with interest, looked at it, and noted the time.
He said with great certainty, "The outcome will be decided within ten seconds!"
