One Hundred Versus Three, I Have the Advantage!

The time was getting late.

As the three Great Pirate crews of Sphinx gathered their fleets and appeared in the harbor, the twilight of dusk dyed the sky a flowing amber. The usual clamor of the port gradually faded, and a sense of solemnity filled the air.

"It seems the guys occupying Sphinx aren't planning to give it up easily," Lipri said with interest, hefting the large club she'd polished from the heartwood of Adam Wood, after glancing at the formation of the three Great Pirate crews.

"Are you scared?"

"Isn't Captain here?" Lipri chuckled. If Mongge wasn't backing down, how could they, his crew, retreat?

"Just a bunch of rabble." Rocks, having just awakened his Haki, was full of fighting spirit. He hadn't forgotten what Mongge said: Haki only grew in battle. After resting for the afternoon, although his injuries from the fight with the Heart Pirates hadn't healed, his stamina had mostly recovered.

"Haha, no matter what, let's hear what those brats on the other side have to say first. I'm the senior here, I can't just bully the young ones without reason." A smile tugged at Mongge's lips. With the help of Observation Haki, he had a grasp of the entire harbor's situation and the strength of the three Great Pirate crews. The strongest were the captains of the three Great Pirate crews, three Great Pirates with bounties over 100 million. If this were later, they'd probably be on the level of the Three Disasters and Six Calamities or the All-Stars under a Four Emperors. And they weren't even the top fighters among them, just mid-tier. They were even weaker than the captain of the Blood Skull Pirates he'd encountered a year ago when he first awakened his system. Below the three Great Pirates were several other strong fighters, but none reached the level of the Three Disasters and Six Calamities; their strength was about the same as Lipri's current level.

"Truly terrifying~" Mongge sighed. Three Great Pirates with bounties over 100 million, six or seven strong combatants, plus nearly five thousand pirates. Anyone below Admiral-level could likely be overwhelmed by sheer numbers.

"White Wolf Mongge!" A powerful voice boomed from one of the three Great Pirate ships. "You haven't managed this island for over a decade. This island is now under the Black Gold Pirate Alliance. You've trespassed into our territory and injured my subordinates. Do you intend to start a war with us?"

Hearing the man's words, Mongge immediately knew who he was: Undead Jason. The undead who ate the Zombie Fruit, who wouldn't die no matter the injury as long as the missing parts were filled. Even opponents of the same level would hesitate to fight Undead Jason head-on due to his reckless fighting style of trading injuries. Mongge had severed one of his subordinate's arms with a single slash earlier.

"White Wolf Mongge, this is no longer your era. Sphinx does not belong to you. If you don't want to face the combined assault of our three Great Pirate crews, I suggest you leave Sphinx immediately!" On another pirate ship, Black Merchant Duke Men shouted loudly. If it wasn't necessary, he really didn't want to fight Mongge to the death. As a merchant, he hated losing deals the most.

The lion may be old, but its might still lingered. No one knew how much of White Wolf Mongge's full strength remained. Then, he heard Monster Moz on the side let out a roar: "White Wolf Mongge, dare to fight me?" From the Giant Monster Pirates' ship, Monster Moz leaped to the bow, and a terrifying aura suddenly erupted, sweeping across the entire area.

"Damn it, this idiot!" Black Merchant Duke Men and Undead Jason had hoped to subdue their enemy without a fight, but they hadn't expected Monster Moz to unleash Conqueror's Haki right away. How did such an idiot awaken Conqueror's Haki?

Buzzzzzzz--------

Monster Moz's Conqueror's Haki ignored friend or foe, covering nearly half the port. Many weaker pirates rolled their eyes and fainted. However, those on the Black Pearl, like Newgate, felt nothing. They only saw Mongge step onto the bow, spread his arms, and laugh heartily, "Puhahaha, Conqueror's Haki? It seems there's one among you three with some courage!"

"But this level isn't enough!" Monster Moz's Conqueror's Haki was, at best, at the level of just having mastered it; he couldn't even distinguish friend from foe or control its direction. Mongge, on the other hand, after continuously fighting Scarlet Snake Rona and Giant King Harald, and with the system's enhancements, his Conqueror's Haki had made significant progress.

"Let me show you what true Conqueror's Haki is!" Mongge laughed, releasing his Conqueror's Haki without reservation at that moment. The clash of Conqueror's Haki caused black and red lightning to flash across the sky, bringing a terrifying pressure that felt like the sky was collapsing and the earth tearing apart. But what no one expected was that Monster Moz's Conqueror's Haki only lasted for an instant before being completely crushed by Mongge's Conqueror's Haki. Even from a considerable distance, this terrifying pressure made it difficult for the pirates gathered to watch the spectacle to breathe. The air seemed to solidify, and many weaker pirates simply collapsed onto the ground.

Hiding on a high rooftop to observe the battle, Stussy confirmed she was far enough from the Black Pearl. However, when Mongge stood at the bow of the Black Pearl and unleashed his Haki, her breathing still uncontrollably quickened.

"Is this the most powerful pirate on this sea?"

Stussy's breath hitched. Just standing there, he seemed like the focus of the entire world, an unparalleled king.

Was this kind of existence truly something she could reach?

Facing Mongge's Haki, the three Great Pirates who bore the brunt of it felt suffocated. They never imagined that Mongge, a seventy-something-year-old man, could unleash such a terrifying aura.

"Cap... Captain, many can't take it and have fallen!"

A pirate said, trembling.

"How many do we have left?"

Black Merchant Duke Men gritted his teeth. Looking at Mongge's stance, it seemed they couldn't resolve this peacefully with the White Wolf Pirates. The only fortunate thing was that they had more people, while the White Wolf Pirates currently only had three in total!

"Th-there are still a hundred people!"

"What!?"

Black Merchant Duke Men's eyes widened. He looked at the pirate and almost roared, "I brought a full three thousand men for this operation!"

Black Merchant Duke Men was already drenched in sweat.

His pirate crew's strength was considered strong among the three pirate crews. If even his crew had become like this, the other two pirate crews were even worse off.

But it had come to this, and they had no room to retreat.

"Prepare to bombard!"

Black Merchant Duke Men roared.

"No matter how strong White Wolf Mongge is, he's only one person. As long as we sink his ship, he'll have to fight us head-on, no matter how strong he is!"

One hundred against three, the advantage is ours!
