First Meeting with Moria

First Encounter with Moria

Ye Han led his people toward the castle at the center of the island. Other than graves, the roadside was filled with strange-looking creatures that seemed stitched together from assorted body parts, their bodies covered in seams. As they passed by, the creatures secretly watched every member of the Blood Eye Pirates.

"This place is seriously creepy."

"What the hell are these animals? Why are they all pieced together?"

"I knew some people had rather twisted tastes, but I never imagined they'd be this twisted. Do powerful pirates all have peculiar fetishes?"

"Yeah! Our boss loves destruction and devastation!" the pirate said proudly. Ye Han wanted nothing more than to kick him. When had he ever liked destruction and devastation? They made him sound like some Demon King. Wasn't he always forced into it? Of course, the pirates saw things differently. A boss with that kind of intimidating presence was the most reliable—the sort clearly destined to become the Pirate King.

Suddenly, a bizarre laugh echoed through the air, making the already terrifying scene even more chilling. "Kehihihihi~~! Kehihihihihi~!!"

"Ahhh! A ghost!" Aisa and Hancock were so frightened that they directly leaped onto Ye Han. Robin, on the other hand, remained perfectly calm, as though she had already gotten used to the atmosphere here.

The women from Amazon Lily in the Blood Eye Pirates instantly drew their bows and fired a volley of arrows in every direction. Pfft, pfft—! A swarm of black bats that seemed to be formed from shadows was pierced through and nailed to the ground, but the shadows quickly slipped away from the arrows.

"Kehihihihihi~!" The strange laughter continued, as if declaring that the previous attack had been completely ineffective.

Boom! Boom!

"Ahhh! I died so miserably!"
