With a swing of the Spiked Iron Club in her hand, she shouted!
"Get them!"
Several pirates immediately charged forward, brimming with murderous intent and looking utterly fierce!
"Coby, on this sea, who is the most beautiful woman?"
Alvida then looked at Coby and asked.
"It's, it's... Lady Alvida, you..."
Faced with Alvida's imposing presence, Coby said in a trembling voice.
However, halfway through his words, his mouth suddenly fell open. He stared at Moonlight in utter disbelief, as though he had seen a ghost, unable to say another word!
"Hm?"
Hearing only half of Coby's answer, Alvida's gaze sharpened as she was about to fly into a rage. But when she saw Coby's dumbfounded expression, she followed his line of sight. Her eyes immediately narrowed, and her entire body tensed.
"My God, what is that?!"
"So powerful, that's incredible!"
"Is this that swordsman's true strength? It's actually this terrifying!"
At that moment, the scene on the deck also caught the attention of the passengers inside the cabin. They all came out and immediately witnessed an utterly shocking sight!
Facing the dozen or so pirates charging straight at him, Moonlight raised the sword in his hand and slashed out a crescent-shaped Sword Aura over thirty feet wide, like a beam of moonlight!
The Sword Aura cut through the air at incredible speed. Several charging pirates had no time to react before they were cleaved apart by a single slash, dead beyond doubt!
Moreover, the Sword Aura continued sweeping onward. Its terrifying power ravaged the surrounding ships like crashing waves!
The power of Moonlight's single sword strike was terrifying beyond belief!
"How is that possible? Kara and more than a dozen others were taken out by one slash?"
"What kind of swordsmanship is that? It looks like moonlight—so powerful!"
"With strength like that, even Pirate Hunter Zoro would be no match for him, right?"
The remaining pirates were stunned. Faced with such terrifying power, they no longer dared to act recklessly!
Some were even so frightened that they fled far away!
"Damn it, he's actually this strong. It looks like I'll have to deal with you myself!"
Alvida's expression turned incomparably grave. This Sword Technique was truly terrifying.
Even she might not be his match.
However, as captain, if she retreated the moment she encountered a powerful enemy, what was the point of going to sea, let alone reaching the Grand Line and obtaining the Great Treasure!
Pirates were ruthless desperadoes who lived with their lives on the line!
Alvida immediately charged forward. Her five-hundred-pound body was like a human tank, and as she ran, the deck seemed unable to bear her weight, trembling violently.
Combined with the Spiked Iron Club that weighed over a hundred pounds, her power became even more terrifying!
This blow carried four or five hundred pounds of force!
As the iron club swung, the air around it faintly howled, showing just how powerful she was!
"As expected of Captain! Even a tiger would be smashed to death by that strike!"
"Go, Captain! Take down this penniless swordsman!"
"Captain is mighty! Captain is mighty!"
Seeing this, the pirates all around began cheering.
"This is bad. That female pirate may be fat, but she's incredibly strong. This swordsman might not be her match!"
"He's too young, far too young. How could he possibly be a match for this pirate captain?"
"This is going to end badly!"
The surrounding passengers also cried out in alarm!
Alvida had dominated these waters through her powerful strength.
This single strike was enough to prove everything!
"Be careful!"
Even Coby could not help shouting.
As a captive, he knew all too well how formidable Alvida was!
"It's fine. That guy is very strong!"
At that moment, a clear voice suddenly rang out.
A seventeen-year-old boy walked up beside Coby. He wore a Straw Hat and watched the scene before him with a carefree expression!
"Hm? Who are you?"
Coby was stunned when he heard that. Looking at the boy beside him, he asked.
"My name is Monkey D. Luffy, and I'm the man who'll become the Pirate King!"
"The Pirate King?"
Coby froze, staring blankly at the boy who had suddenly appeared beside him. He seemed not to have processed that someone had suddenly appeared at his side. Then, as if someone had stomped on his foot, he jumped up and said in shock.
"Y-you-you... are you talking about the Great Treasure, One Piece, left behind by Roger, the previous Pirate King—the strongest man who ruled the world?"
"That's right."
Luffy nodded, revealing a brilliant smile.
"I'm currently looking for companions. That guy is very strong, and I want him to become my partner!"
Then Luffy pointed at Moonlight and said.
Just then, a loud bang rang out.
It was as though a balloon had suddenly burst. Coby was startled and quickly looked over!
He immediately saw an incredibly shocking scene!
Alvida, who had charged toward the nameless swordsman, swung her iron club as she rushed forward. Just as it was about to smash into the swordsman, the swordsman neither dodged nor moved aside. With one hand raised, he forcibly caught Alvida's hundred-pound iron club!
Then he threw a punch, slamming it fiercely into Alvida's body!
Alvida let out a scream. Her five-hundred-pound obese body was suddenly sent flying toward the sea. She flew farther and farther away until she disappeared from everyone's sight!
"Ah! Alvida was sent flying?!"
Coby was stunned, completely unable to believe what he had just seen!
"This is bad, the captain was sent flying by that swordsman!"
"Run! Captain, Captain!"
The pirates were utterly shocked by the sight. They no longer dared to stay and scattered in all directions, fleeing at top speed!
"So powerful! He actually sent Alvida flying!"
"You're our savior! If it weren't for you, we would have been finished!"
"Thank you! You saved all of us!"
"This is wonderful!"
All the passengers began cheering, smiling gratefully at Moonlight.
"Heh heh!"
Moonlight merely smiled faintly and did not care much about it. To him, Alvida had been nothing more than a trivial opponent!
"Oh right, I'm a little hungry!"
Just then, his stomach suddenly growled.
He had just transmigrated here on an empty stomach.
After all that activity, he was even hungrier.
Moonlight could not help feeling a little embarrassed.
"Hahaha, hurry, hurry! Bring out the finest wine and food to thank our benefactor!"
"Sure, sure!"
"Hahaha!"
The passengers all laughed and quickly brought out fine wine and delicious food to entertain him.
Moonlight had saved everyone aboard the ship. Forget fine wine and food—even if he asked for money, they would have given it to him.
He was their benefactor!
"Food? Awooo, awooo, I want some too!"
The moment he heard there would be fine wine and delicious food, Luffy's eyes immediately lit up. He howled excitedly, ignored Coby beside him, and ran in after them. The food had already been prepared, and he immediately began stuffing himself without a care for anyone else.
Seeing this, Coby gritted his teeth and followed him inside.
"The food on a pirate ship is pretty good. Tasty."
With everyone eagerly entertaining him, Moonlight quickly ate his fill. It had to be said, the food was indeed incredibly delicious.
After exchanging a few polite words with everyone, he left the cabin and admired the beautiful sea view!
"You're very strong. How about becoming my companion?"
At that moment, Luffy let out a full belch and walked out with a satisfied expression. Seeing Moonlight, he invited him.
