Trump Pirates!

The executives of the Trump Pirates, who were busy gambling and playing cards, frowned as they heard the shrill sound of the alarm.

They had occupied this island for six years and had remained the strongest pirate crew in the region; no other pirates dared to provoke them.

Could it be that the Navy was attacking?

"Go and check the situation!"

Several of them stood up immediately and walked out quickly, while Skunk flew out directly using his Gas Jetpack.

Inside the top-floor hall of Clockwork Island, Bear King had already seen the incoming Big Daddy Pirates through his telescope. He felt a moment of tension, but he quickly forced himself to calm down!

"Start the Giant Clockwork immediately and aim the King Cannon at them! I don't believe anyone can withstand the power of the King Cannon!"

Bear King shouted with murderous intent. He had been operating Clockwork Island for six years, and this King Cannon was specifically designed to deal with powerful crews like the Krieg Pirates and the Arlong Pirates.

No one would be able to snatch Clockwork Island from his hands!!

Although the Big Daddy Pirates had wiped out the Krieg Pirates and the Arlong Pirates, as long as he blew up their ship, everything would be fine!

Clack... clack...

The machinery of Clockwork Island turned continuously, causing the entire island to rotate slowly.

The King Cannon, with its massive caliber, was already aimed at the rapidly approaching Big Daddy Pirates!

"Fire!!"

At Bear King's command, a giant cannonball with a diameter of two or three meters blasted toward the Big Daddy Pirates.

"Go to hell! Even if you have a 30 million bounty, you're going to die by my hand! Hahaha!!"

Bear King laughed wildly, and the executives, emboldened by their captain's confident laughter, felt their fear of the Big Daddy Pirates diminish slightly.

Daddy, who was training on the Dreadnaught Sabre, suddenly saw a flash of red light in his eyes. He immediately dropped his giant dumbbells, ran quickly to the bow of the ship, and jumped onto the head of Momoo, the sea beast pulling the vessel!

"Guardian Barrier!!"

Daddy stood on Momoo's head and erected a massive, transparent barrier, much to the astonishment of Nami and the others.

The next moment, the giant cannonball descended and slammed into the barrier, triggering a massive explosion. The churning waves caused the entire pirate ship to sway violently.

"El Drago! Blast them back! All hands! Kill them all!"

For a trash pirate crew that dared to interrupt his training, Daddy would slaughter them himself!

As if sensing Daddy's rage and killing intent, the sea beast Momoo swam even faster, eager to reach the island.

"Understood!"

"Sonic Cannon!"

El Drago had also been startled by the sudden attack. Sensing Captain Daddy's coldness, he immediately charged up his power furiously and blasted it back toward the top floor of Clockwork Island.

Bear King had not expected his ultimate weapon, prepared for years, to be blocked!

"Captain, watch out!"

Skunk lunged over and tackled Bear King to the ground just as a terrifying blue-white laser sonic wave pierced through their top-floor hall.

"Hurry! Load the second shot!!"

Bear King was truly starting to panic; the strength of the Big Daddy Pirates seemed to have exceeded his imagination.

They successfully loaded and fired again, but this shot was even more terrifying.

It was sliced in half by a forty-meter blade from the opposite side, leaving them no chance to land a hit!

Gulp!!

"Captain, we should run now!"

Skunk said anxiously. A terrifying crew like the Big Daddy Pirates was no longer something they could handle.

With the King Cannon rendered useless, they had no hope in a head-on confrontation!

"Right! We retreat first! Looking at their route, they are definitely heading to the Grand Line. We'll avoid the limelight for now and kill them when they return!"

Bear King did not hesitate; he turned and fled immediately, acting even more decisively than his underlings.

Seeing this, the other executives followed suit; the pressure exerted by the Big Daddy Pirates was simply too great.

But how could Daddy, having been shot at twice, let them get away?

The sea beast Momoo had already pulled the Dreadnaught Sabre to the shore of Clockwork Island. The crew of the Big Daddy Pirates landed quickly and began slaughtering their way toward the top of the island.

Under Bear King's orders, the pirate underlings fought desperately to block the Big Daddy Pirates' advance, while the executives tried to escape from the other side.

But Daddy, who had awakened his Observation Haki, quickly sensed these powerful ants trying to flee. Their aura stood out among the many underlings like fireflies in the dark night!

"Two Devil Fruit users! And a bunch of trash!"

Daddy drew Sandai Kitetsu and charged over. Zoro and Kuro, seeing this, immediately followed. They knew Daddy possessed Observation Haki and must have discovered something, and they were working hard to awaken it themselves.

"Boom!!"

A transparent barrier, shaped like a giant blade, slashed down horizontally, blocking the path of Bear King and his four companions and giving them all a fright.

Bear King gritted his teeth, his entire body turning red as if he were molten steel, and slammed fiercely into the glass-like barrier.

He refused to believe he couldn't shatter this barrier!

"CLANG!!"

With a deafening roar, Bear King was sent flying backward, tumbling dozens of times across the ground while vomiting blood uncontrollably.

Seeing their captain in such a miserable state, the Trump Pirates executives scrambled to show off their own abilities, fleeing in a panic.

Skunk activated his gas jetpack, leaving behind a trail of toxic fumes as he desperately flew toward the sky, while Honey Queen transformed into a mass of paste, instantly finding a gap to escape through.

Pin Joker also wanted to flee, but he ran straight into his old rival, Zoro; they had crossed blades before, and he had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of this Pirate Hunter once already.

As for Pig Jack, he was instantly cut down by Kuro of a Hundred Plans; a piece of trash with a bounty of a mere three million berries didn't even require a second move from Kuro!

"I hate these things the most!"

Catching the scent of the foul gas left behind by Skunk, veins throbbed on Daddy's forehead—this kind of trash had to die!

"Barrier Thrust!!"

The massive barrier on the ground instantly shifted its form, turning into a giant, sharp cone that lunged violently toward the sky, piercing Skunk through in an instant and causing him to spray liters of blood on the spot before Daddy sent him flying with a brutal strike, casting him straight into hell.

Meanwhile, Pin Joker was also cut down to the ground by Zoro within a few exchanges, left with no power to resist!

At this moment, Bear King stood back up, but seeing his subordinates dead, fled, or severely wounded, his eyes turned bloodshot; he activated his Steel-Steel Fruit ability, and the temperature of his body rose once again!

"I'll take you all down with me!!"

Like a burning locomotive, Bear King charged madly toward Daddy, carrying an unstoppable momentum.

"Impact Barrier!!"

Daddy didn't even spare him a glance, sending a massive Impact Barrier crashing into Bear King before turning his back to pursue the Paramecia Paste-Paste Fruit user.

Trying to escape under the gaze of his Observation Haki was not going to be that easy!
