Seeing this, Moonlight found it amusing.
He had only dodged a few attacks, yet they actually mistook him for an easy target.
His level 1 Sword Technique was not enough to run rampant throughout the East Blue, but dealing with a few petty thieves would still be no problem.
Besides, his Iai Slash had already reached level 2, enough to cut through hard iron!
With this kind of strength, he could already be considered an expert throughout the entire East Blue!
Not to mention that under Armament Haki, its power would become even more terrifying!
If not for his low level of Conqueror's Haki, and his fear of harming innocent people, he would have already tried out this ability that only those chosen by heaven could possess!
That was why Moonlight declined the old man's goodwill!
However, in the eyes of everyone else, this was simply courting death out of ignorance!
"What a newborn calf that doesn't fear the tiger! Young people don't know the height of the heavens or the depth of the earth. They won't know what's good for them until they hit a wall!"
"Hey, he's courting death himself. Why are you helping him?"
"Arrogant and ignorant!"
The surrounding people shook their heads and sneered.
The few Pirates, meanwhile, began to laugh coldly!
"What a bold claim. Swordsman, you said that a few petty thieves like us can't do anything to you? Fine, then let us see what you're capable of, you penniless swordsman!"
"Arrogant brat, you'll pay the price for your words and actions!"
"Idiot, you're courting death!"
"Kill him and let everyone know the consequences of resisting us!"
Laughing coldly, they advanced toward Moonlight. With ferocious expressions, they raised their broadswords and charged over, overflowing with killing intent!
They had clearly developed murderous intent!
"Alas!"
The old man who had been preparing to help Moonlight also shook his head and sighed. After putting down the Beli, he left.
"Is that so? The consequences of resisting you?"
Hearing this, Moonlight smiled disdainfully. He raised the Kusanagi Sword, and a crescent-shaped Sword Aura suddenly slashed outward!
"Three-Stage Slash!"
"Boom!"
The Sword Aura swept across the room as fast as lightning, forming three slashes that cut toward the charging Pirates!
The Sword Aura, powerful enough to cut through hard iron, struck the bodies of the Pirates in an instant!
How could their mortal bodies withstand it?
In the blink of an eye, a single slash severed their bodies. Blood splattered across the ground, and they died beyond dead!
The Sword Aura's power did not diminish in the slightest. It continued along the ship's cabin, slicing through everything in its path. Tables, stools, and chairs were all shattered!
It extended all the way outside the ship's cabin before finally stopping!
"Th-this..."
"Isn't this too exaggerated?"
"Is he a peerless expert?"
"What a terrifying slash!"
Seeing this scene, the surrounding people stared at Moonlight with their mouths agape, their faces filled with disbelief.
Several people who had mocked Moonlight coldly fell to their knees with a thump, completely dumbfounded!
The old man who had been preparing to help Moonlight was also stupefied, staring at Moonlight in disbelief.
"Uncle, thank you for your goodwill. Keep your Beli!"
Seeing this, Moonlight smiled slightly and walked out of the ship's cabin.
"Coby, who is the most beautiful woman in the world?"
At this moment, outside the ship's cabin, a five-hundred-jin woman wielding a spiked club was glaring viciously at a young boy.
"Of course it's you, my captain, Lady Alvida!"
Coby's legs trembled as he answered shakily.
"Hahahaha!"
Alvida burst into loud laughter, the fat on her face shaking exaggeratedly.
The surrounding Pirates also burst out laughing.
Certain of their victory, they had yet to realize what had happened inside the ship's cabin.
"Alvida, Coby... It really is the Pirate World. And I actually arrived on the ship where Coby and Luffy first met!"
Seeing this scene, Moonlight was now completely certain. He had truly arrived in the Pirate World.
His heart immediately filled with excitement.
In this Great Pirate Era, searching for the Great Treasure One Piece was every Pirate's dream, and he was no exception.
Since he had come to this world and possessed such a powerful system, he naturally had to search for it.
Moreover, there were countless regrets from his previous life, such as Ace's and Whitebeard's deaths. As a Pirate fan, he naturally did not want to see them happen.
He also wanted to uncover the truth behind the Void Century.
Since he had transmigrated, he naturally had to figure everything out.
However, going to sea was not that easy. First, he needed a ship that could withstand wind and waves. Second, a navigator and an archaeologist were indispensable.
"Since that's the case, why not board Luffy's ship? Although I don't want to become the Pirate King, I do want to know what this history really is and what One Piece actually contains."
Moonlight murmured, having made up his mind.
"Captain, Captain, this is bad! A swordsman killed several of our brothers!"
"Captain, that swordsman is too powerful! He killed them with a single slash!"
"Captain, only you can deal with him!"
Just then, several Pirates who had sensed that things were going badly and fled hurriedly ran toward Alvida.
"Useless trash, what are you panicking about? Isn't it just a swordsman? As long as he's not Pirate Hunter Zoro, there's nothing to fear!"
Seeing this, Alvida roared furiously and smashed her spiked club downward.
"Crack!"
The deck was smashed open, and the few Pirates who had charged over flew away.
"Were you the one who killed my men?"
Then she spotted Moonlight and shouted.
There was no other possibility. Moonlight had just walked out, holding the Kusanagi Sword, with no one else around him. It was obvious!
"It was me."
Moonlight nodded and answered indifferently.
"You seem quite skilled. Join us and become my subordinate. I'll take you to the Grand Line, and we'll search for One Piece together!"
Alvida grinned and attempted to recruit him.
"Heh heh, kid, you're pretty skilled. You actually managed to kill several of our brothers with just a sword. But since the captain has taken a liking to you, we'll spare your life. Come over here already!"
"There are actually swordsmen on a ship like this? But as long as he's not Pirate Hunter Zoro, there's nothing to fear! Our captain is a famous figure throughout the East Blue!"
"Kid, come over here already. It's your good fortune that our captain has taken a liking to you!"
Several Pirates beside Alvida shouted one after another.
"Heh heh, just a few petty thieves on a broken ship, and you actually want to go to the Grand Line? You want to recruit me? You're not qualified!"
Hearing this, Moonlight said disdainfully.
"So, you're rejecting me?"
At these words, Alvida's gaze narrowed, and a murderous intent burst forth!
"Do I need to spell it out? Are you deaf?"
Moonlight sneered.
"Courting death! How dare you insult our captain! You've got a death wish!"
"An insubstantial swordsman dares to act arrogant in front of our captain? You probably don't know how powerful our captain is!"
"There's no need to waste words on him. Captain, let us deal with him. A minor character like this doesn't require you to act personally!"
The few Pirates immediately became enraged. They were savage and had killed countless people—when had they ever been afraid?
They clenched their fists and shouted furiously!
As long as Alvida gave the order, they would strike mercilessly!
"Hahahaha!"
Alvida threw her head back and laughed loudly.
