Corrupt King · Avalo Pizarro

"Why did you go to the Calm Belt and cultivate in seclusion for six months?"

Sengoku, on the other side, didn't understand anything, but his anger subsided considerably.

Is your eye better?

"I'm about to go to Drum Island." Without even glancing at the Den Den Mushi, Ye Chen turned the barbecue grill, his expression indifferent.

"Perfect timing! Go to Drum Island and take care of a pirate!"

"Pirates?" Ye Chen frowned.

"Drum Kingdom is one of the World Affiliated Nation. According to reports, the pirate with a bounty of 350 million, the Corrupt King Abaro Pizarro, has his eye on the Drum Kingdom. Not long ago, the King of the Drum Kingdom requested support from the World Government, which was then assigned to the Navy." On the other end, along with Sengoku's voice, there were other voices, presumably Sengoku was handling government affairs while talking to Ye Chen.

"Knew!"

Ye Chen agreed without hesitation.

"Remember, Sakazuki and the other two have already achieved enough merit to become Vice Admiral. Next time we meet, I expect you to bring the Corrupt King with you."

Finally, Sengoku solemnly gave a word of advice, the meaning of which was crystal clear!

"Yes!"

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, only the crackling sound of firewood remained. In the flickering light, Ye Chen smiled.

"It seems the time for empty seats to be given up is not far off!"

Ye Chen's thinking was correct. The reform of the navy was about to begin. Perhaps in a few years, Kong would be promoted to Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. At that time, Sengoku would become the Fleet Admiral, and someone would have to fill the vacant Admiral position.

"It's time to boost our political achievements, starting with you, the Corrupt King."

Drum Kingdom is one of the world's Affiliated Nation, a winter island renowned for its advanced medicine, and a peaceful and prosperous nation.

However, this peaceful country was targeted by pirates.

If you go to the Drum Kingdom now, you will see ruins and smoke, corpses everywhere, and the white snow has been stained red with blood.

The dilapidated houses lay scattered haphazardly, and corpses littered the surrounding area.

There were royal soldiers, civilians, and even doctors; it was a truly horrific sight!

Snowflakes drifted slowly through the air, creating a unique and exciting sight.

"Puff puff"

The sound of footsteps crunching in the snow accompanied a figure appearing on the street. Looking at the scene before him, Ye Chen remained expressionless, then looked up at the Drum Mountain, shrouded in snow and wind—the place where the current king of this country resided.

Ye Chen was very familiar with this place because it was Chopper's hometown, although Chopper was probably still liquid at the moment.

With his long hair tied up and a package slung over his back, Ye Chen slowly walked towards the seemingly endless Pillar of Strength.

Meanwhile, in the royal city Drum Mountain, Drum Kingdom, with hundreds of doctors, warriors, and nobles kneeling behind him, stared in fear at the man at the forefront, who held a three-barreled pistol.

She wore a white and dark brown fur coat, a light purple necklace around her neck, and her bluish-green hair hung down to her shoulders like wild mane. The curved hair on both sides of her forehead, whether naturally grown or worn, gave her a sharp and edgy look.

This man was none other than the Corrupt King pirate with a bounty of 350 million, Abaro Pizarro, who later became a member of the Blackbeard Pirates.

Just like his nickname, the Corrupt King, he was extremely cruel, and anyone who disobeyed him would be killed by him! As a result, countless lives have been lost at his hands.

For reasons unknown, he set his sights on the Drum Kingdom, perhaps for its treasures, or for something else entirely. In any case, his arrival led to bloodshed throughout the entire country.

All around, many pirates raised their guns, aiming them at the kneeling king and his entourage of the Drum Kingdom in the center.

"Boss, this country is indeed very wealthy; it truly deserves its reputation as a medical superpower."

Dozens of pirates emerged from the royal city, carrying chests of dazzling treasure. The sight caused all the pirates to stare wide-eyed, their eyes filled with greed as they gazed greedily at the glittering gold, jewels, diamonds, and other valuables.

"Ha ha ha!" Looking at the mountain of treasure, the Corrupt King laughed heartily, quite satisfied. "That's it. Kill all these people. The navy will probably be here soon."

"Wait." At this moment, one of the pirates stopped them.

The Corrupt King's fierce eyes, with a slight glare, exuded a beast-like aura, startling the interrupting pirate into a shiver.

"Boss, these doctors are very valuable in the Underworld. They're worth at least several billion Beli combined."

Upon hearing the explanation, the Corrupt King's eyes gleamed as he looked at the doctors kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear. He waved his hand and ordered, "Take all the doctors away. As for the rest, kill them all."

"Yes, Captain."

First, a pirate roughly grabbed those dressed as doctors and dragged them aside.

The cries of "Dad!" echoed throughout the entire square. A middle-aged doctor, holding his wife and child, stood guard over them with his own body.

"Bang"

The gun butt struck the doctor, causing him to vomit blood and collapse to the ground.

"Daddy, Daddy"

With his face covered in blood, the middle-aged doctor watched his child run towards him, reaching out to grab him.

However, one of the pirates had already aimed his gun at the child and opened fire instantly.

"Call out"

"Don't want!"

Everything froze. The middle-aged doctor, Big Mouth, rushed toward the child without thinking, but it was too late.

In a flash, a figure appeared out of nowhere beside the child. With a flick of his finger, his dark right hand gripped the bullet, and the pirate who had just fired screamed and fell to the ground, his blood instantly staining the snow red.

"Dad!"

At this moment, the middle-aged doctor hugged his child tightly, still shaken.

"Ah ah"

Afterimages flashed, scalding blood splattered, and the surrounding pirates, before they even knew what had happened, were decapitated and lay bloodied on the ground.

"Fire! Fire!"

Bullets flew past one after another, but they all hit empty air, having no effect whatsoever.

The scene instantly descended into chaos, because the opponent's speed was too fast, like a ghost, leaving many pirates dead without even knowing how they died.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the King of the Drum Kingdom led everyone back to the capital. Among them, some pirates attacked them, but before they could even fire, one of them screamed and died.

"Hurry and get into the royal city!"

Seeing that someone was helping him, the King of the Drum Kingdom was grateful and acted even faster.

"Whoosh"

Two consecutive ten-meter slashes cleaved through the snow, charging towards the pirates with unstoppable momentum, leaving limbs flying everywhere and screams of agony along the way.

"Court death!"

Seeing his men dying and being wounded one after another, the Corrupt King glared angrily. The ground instantly exploded, and he disappeared from his original spot. He then threw a punch at an empty space, creating a whooshing sound.

"Boom"

Piercing eardrums, a Shockwave whipped up endless snowflakes, revealing the cracked ground with spiderweb-like fissures.

Their fists collided, and the Corrupt King glared fiercely at the man before him, increasing the force of his blows.

With a roar, the two separated. The Corrupt King Backslide two steps back, while Ye Chen, on the other side, did several backflips, stood on the ground, looked indifferently at the Corrupt King, and shook the blood off his hands.
