Pirates: Advantage is Mine!

A moment later, Mad Dog Torf, who had climbed onto the ship, knelt on the ground in tears, begging for mercy, while the other pirates swimming toward them turned around and frantically fled from Dunn's ship.

Just moments ago, their captain had been the first to board that ship, and just as the other pirates thought they were about to seize it, they witnessed a horrifying scene.

The person on the ship had pinned their captain down and was pummeling him with clenched fists.

Even from a distance, they could hear their captain's wails.

It was a sound that would break the heart of anyone who heard it.

However, it was better for the captain alone to bear such misery.

Although being without a ship in this vast ocean meant a ninety-nine percent chance of becoming fish food, boarding that ship meant being beaten to death.

Dunn watched the pirates frantically swimming away, then turned his gaze to the sobbing pirate before him.

"Do you know any other pirates?"

Dunn's voice rang out, and the wailing Mad Dog Torf's crying came to an abrupt halt.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Torf nodded repeatedly.

"Are there any bounties?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"Do you know their location?"

"Yes, yes... ah, no, I mean, I know, I know!"

Torf quickly corrected himself.

"Take me there."

After saying this, Dunn sat down at the bow of the ship.

Hearing Dunn's command, Torf scrambled to his feet, endured the pain in his body, and grabbed the oars. As he turned to start rowing, a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"Hehehe!"

There were indeed pirates at that location, but not just one—it was a whole group. It was the default gathering place for pirates and the spot where they offloaded stolen goods.

This bastard actually dared to hit him.

Once they arrived, he would make him pay back a hundredfold.

Little did he know, his every move was under the surveillance of Dunn's Observation Haki.

Dunn could even guess exactly what this guy was thinking.

But for Dunn, this was actually a good thing; it saved him the trouble of searching. After all, he only had a superficial understanding of things like nautical charts. He might be able to read a small-scale map to find a location, but he couldn't make heads or tails of those large-scale charts.

Having a fish to lead the way was a good thing.

However, the voyage lasted for several full days.

The physiques of people in this pirate world were truly special.

Torf received no prisoner treatment; he hadn't had a drop of water or a bite of food for days, yet he was still managing to hold on.

It wasn't until he saw an island in the distance with a strange shape, resembling an overturned mushroom, that a look of wild joy replaced the despair on his face, and he began to row even faster.

Dunn tossed the orange peel in his hand into the sea, stood up to look at the island in the distance, and expanded his Observation Haki, immediately taking in the situation on the island.

There were a large number of people, mostly pirates, but also some merchants of unknown identity.

It was quite lively.

Dunn sat back down, looked at the frantically rowing Torf, and nodded slightly.

Sure enough, the instinct to survive could unleash the greatest potential.

At the island's dock, a heavy pirate ship pulled in and came to a stop, and a large group of pirates excitedly disembarked.

After all, opportunities to land and rest like this were rare.

"It's Lone Wolf Asong!"

"Why did this bastard come here too?"

Watching the pirate who stepped off the ship wearing a wolf pelt and a wolf head atop his own, many people wore expressions of wariness.

A pirate with a bounty of 7.8 million Belly was already a top-tier pirate in this East Blue.

Moreover, this guy not only frequently attacked inhabited islands but also enjoyed raiding other pirate ships.

Even other pirates didn't want to run into this guy.

Because most who encountered him didn't meet a good end.

In any case, many pirate crews that had crossed paths with this guy had completely vanished, never to be heard from again.

"You bastard, you actually came here too?"

While some feared the pirate with the 7.8 million bounty, there were others who were not afraid of him.

The pirate who spoke stood nearly four meters tall, carrying a giant axe larger than the bodies of ordinary pirates, his face twisted in a look of disdain.

"It's Giant Axe Onwa!"

"Giant Axe Onwa, with a bounty of 8.5 million."

Many pirates gulped and quietly backed away.

Would these two actually start a fight?

If they did, anyone caught in the crossfire would likely lose their life.

Pirates were vicious toward ordinary people, but they were just as prone to fear when encountering someone stronger than themselves.

"Onwa, I don't want to clash with you right now. Since you've come here too, you should know why I'm here. That dog-headed bastard is back."

Lone Wolf Asong let out a cold snort and tightened his grip on his sword.

The surrounding crowd's expressions shifted violently the moment they heard this.

Dog-headed bastard?

The Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral from the East Blue, Garp?

That guy had returned to the East Blue again?

At once, everyone fell silent.

If that guy had returned to the East Blue, it made perfect sense for these notorious pirates to come here and hide.

After all, whenever that guy Garp encountered pirates, he would raise his hand and unleash a barrage of cannonballs.

The pirates who had been lucky enough to survive such scenes still held deep, vivid memories of them.

Just as the two pirates with bounties of seven or eight million were locked in a standoff, a burst of wild laughter erupted from the pier.

A small boat had just pulled into the dock, and a figure who looked as though he had been hollowed out rolled off the boat, laughing maniacally.

"Hahaha, you bastard, you fell for it! This is a pirate's nest, you bastard—go ahead and die here!"

Torff, having tumbled off the boat, laughed uncontrollably.

His laughter drew the attention of the pirates on the pier.

Then, they saw a young man holding a sword stand up from that small boat.

Damn!

The pirates were stunned at the sight of this figure, followed immediately by a look of disgust.

He was actually this handsome?

This guy really deserved to die.

That was the thought that sprouted in the hearts of every pirate present.

Dunn swept his gaze across the pier, then reached behind him and pulled out a stack of bounty posters.

"Hmm, Lone Wolf Asong, 7.8 million; Giant Axe Onwa, bounty of 8.5 million; Bloody Hand..."

Dunn muttered aloud as he flipped through the posters to compare them, calculating the total bounty in his head.

However, his voice only made the expressions of the pirates on the pier grow increasingly savage.

Torff, who had fallen off the boat, now barely had the strength to laugh.

He had been running on pure adrenaline before, but now that it had faded, he was gasping for air, his life fading away.

"Hmm, 33.21 million Belly."

Amidst the hostile glares of the pirates, Dunn tucked the bounty posters away with satisfaction before finally looking up to cast his gaze back upon them.

"You are all surrounded."

Dunn raised his voice to make the announcement.

"Wahahaha, what did this brat say?"

"Gagaga, this guy says he's surrounded us—he's going to be the death of me."

"What a boastful kid. Could this guy be a Pirate Hunter?"

One pirate spoke the truth directly.

But the pirates didn't care.

After all, there were hundreds of pirates here, and the opponent was only one person.

No matter how you looked at it, there was only one conclusion.

The advantage was theirs!
