Backslide two steps back, cold sweat appeared on the Momonga's forehead. He drew his longsword and gritted his teeth to withstand the domineering pressure. Fortunately, the girl's Conqueror's Haki wasn't very strong.

Taking a deep breath and sensing his subordinates fainting behind him, the Momonga unleashed a slash.

Vanished from the spot, her body erupting in azure flames, and Cherry hovered in mid-air.

Who exactly are you?

The Momonga looked wary; such a young person possessing Conqueror's Haki, and a woman at that, was simply unheard of.

"I've told you before, I'm Sakura, the captain of the Friendship Pirates. Since you won't listen to my advice, don't blame me."

Vanished without a trace, Sakura suddenly reappeared in front of the Momonga, her two smooth, white fingers raised, covered with a layer of shimmering Armament Haki, carrying with them a surge of energy.

"Bite"

The longsword blocked its path, sparks flying, and the Momonga Backslide a few steps, a wave of dread washing over it.

This girl not only possesses Conqueror's Haki, but her Armament Haki has also reached an intermediate level.

Most importantly, he also knows the Six Powers.

"Rankyaku Kai Bird".

Her slender, long legs kicked out swiftly, two Rankyaku swooping down from the sky, one after the other, striking the Momonga with overwhelming momentum.

"Shave."

Vanished, the Momonga became serious; he had to catch this girl.

Seeing the Momonga quickly appear beside her, Sakura remained unfazed, letting the Momonga's longsword pierce her, while simultaneously unleashing her Shigan with her right hand once more.

Seeing that Sakura not only didn't dodge but instead launched a reckless counterattack, the Momonga felt a chill. This girl really is mentally unstable; she's planning to die together before the fight even begins?

With a hardened expression, a flicker of reluctance crossed the Momonga's eyes, but it still ruthlessly plunged the knife in.

"Tekkai."

Without any hindrance, the longsword pierced through Sakura's body, while the Shigan the Momonga at the same time.

With a muffled groan, the Momonga had two bloody holes in its chest and flew backward, crashing into the boathouse, sending splinters flying everywhere.

Getting up, the Momonga looked at its bleeding chest, then its pupils constricted sharply as it looked at Sakura.

Covered in blue flames, all wounds healed. The Momonga stared in disbelief at Sakura, who was completely unharmed.

This girl shocked him in just too many ways.

"You are Devil Fruit User."

Watching Sakura rapidly recover from her sword wound, the Momonga felt a sense of familiarity, but couldn't quite place it.

"You think you can trick me into telling me anything? I'm not stupid."

Sakura appeared out of nowhere in front of the Momonga, her face full of disdain. Her father once said that if an enemy asked about her abilities, she would answer that she was an idiot.

I won't fall for it.

Raising its sword to block the attack, the Momonga displayed an astonishingly strong force, and instead of looking, prepared to go all out.

After performing two backflips, the Momonga swung its sword, tearing through the deck and crashing down on Sakura.

Unable to look, Sakura quickly unleashed two Rankyaku, creating a whirlwind that left the surrounding area in ruins.

Enveloped in thick sawdust, the flying Momonga and Sakura took to the air with occasional clattering sounds.

"That's impossible."

As it plummeted, the Momonga coughed up blood, quickly scrambled to its feet, and looked down at the girl in mid-air.

He had attacked the girl three times with his Haki, but as soon as she covered her wounds with blue flames, they would be completely healed in the blink of an eye. This made the Momonga think of a certain ability.

"You ate the Phoenix Fruit."

With a solemn expression, the Momonga wasn't stupid. The blue flames and rapid wound healing combined were already quite close to being a powerful weapon.

"Dad's right. We can't look at anyone. I didn't even transform; I just used the Revival Azure Flame, but I was still discovered."

Landing on the deck, Sakura's hands transformed into dazzling wings, her feet into bird claws, and her entire body burst forth with blue flames like a starry sky, a truly magnificent sight.

Seeing Sakura enter her half-beast form, the flying Momonga gasped.

Over a decade ago, God killed Marco the Phoenix, the first division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, thus Whitebeard Pirates, although at the time many people did not understand why God targeted the Phoenix.

However, this "many people" obviously does not include some major powers, such as the navy.

It's no secret that God has a daughter, but few people know that God ate the Phoenix Fruit.

"You are the princess of the kingdom, the daughter of God!"

"I should have realized it sooner; the blue flames, the face that resembles Hina's."

Shocked, conflicted, and amazed, the Momonga suppressed its various emotions and then looked warily at the Friendship.

Seeing the Momonga's expression, Sakura pouted, "Don't worry, the Friendship only has my companions."

Not letting their guard down at all, but instead becoming increasingly vigilant, the Momonga was practically begging for a "I don't believe you" attitude. Would God really let his daughter go out to sea alone? There was definitely an ambush on that ship.

"Bring out all the treasure from the ship."

Sheathing his longsword, the Momonga addressed his several recovered Rear Admiral subordinates.

"Yes."

With expressions of fear, several Rear Admiral scrambled into the storage room, piling all the treasures in front of Sakura, their expressions uneasy.

What do you mean by that?

Slightly stunned, Sakura looked at the Momonga with a puzzled expression.

"You want to rob us? We'll let you go if we give you the treasure."

The Momonga felt utterly humiliated and wished he were dead, but seeing the pirate ship in the distance, he had to back down, otherwise none of them would survive.

Taking a step back opens up a vast expanse; I'll endure this for the sake of my men.

Sakura wasn't stupid; seeing the Momonga furtively eyeing the Friendship, she immediately understood.

"Yes, everyone on the Friendship is my crew, there's no one else."

"Yes, yes, there's no one else, we know that."

Before the Momonga could speak, several Rear Admiral around him nodded vigorously.

"The treasure has been given to you, can we leave now?"

With a grim expression, the Momonga looked at Sakura nervously, afraid that she wouldn't let them go. After all, this guy seemed to be a little mentally unstable, just like his Pops!

"How can you give up so easily? I'm a pirate, shouldn't you capture me to threaten my father?"

Sakura was somewhat annoyed, feeling disappointed in him.

Do you think I don't want to?

The Momonga was devastated.

Seeing that the Momonga and the others were determined to admit defeat, Sakura couldn't bring herself to attack them, after all, they were so sensible.

"Bepo, Conis"

Turning around, Sakura shouted towards the Friendship, and then Conis led ten generals onto the warship.

"Captain, are you alright?!"

"I'm fine. Move this treasure onto our ship; it's ours now!"

With a wave of her hand, Sakura was in a pretty good mood. After all, she had taken the first step and the robbery had been successful, so she felt quite accomplished.

Upon seeing the ten admirals, the sailors, including Momonga, wore expressions of "I knew it!"

How could a princess of such a powerful nation go out without protection? There must be many hidden guards, such as Thunder God, Death God, or even God!

Damn, just thinking about it is terrifying.

"Pops."

Standing on Conis's shoulder, Lily looked at the large wooden raft behind the warship, on which a giant was bound to a cross with his head covered by a cloth.

"Besides the treasure, we also want this giant uncle."

Sakura watched Lily rush onto the large raft with a cold expression.

"Can."

Without uttering a single word, the Momonga nodded in agreement.

"Captain, we've run out of food."

Bepo offered a reminder.

"There's still food." Sakura had almost forgotten that Lily had eaten all their food.

"Go, bring all the food out."

The Momonga remained expressionless, determined to deliver whatever the other party wanted today; anyone who hesitated was a coward.

Frustration and humiliation—this is the most disgusting thing since the Momonga took office as Vice Admiral.

A dozen minutes later, the two warships and the Friendship passed each other by. The Momonga along the way all had tense faces, but Sakura waved her hand at the end.

"Thank you for your treasure and food. See you next time."

"Get out of here quickly, I can't hold back any longer!"

Hearing Sakura's thanks, the Momonga trembled with anger.

Meanwhile, in the Friendship's compartment, even Sakura and the others were unaware that a hidden room existed, and a humanoid flame slowly calmed down.
