"Oh, I wonder what Mr. Vic wants with this pirate crew?"
He wanted to know the purpose behind this, mainly to see how much effort he would need to put in to do it, since things always have priorities.
"Yes, this pirate crew killed my parents, and I want to get rid of them." Vic's words were calm, so calm that there wasn't a ripple in them.
But Ban felt a chill run down his spine. This was a blood feud! Putting the matter of the important person's parents among the most important matters was absolutely the right thing to do.
Rebecca also looked up at Vic, her eyes showing concern. Vic had never mentioned this matter in the past few years, but had been quietly cultivating and improving his strength. It turned out that he had always kept his parents' deaths in his heart, waiting for the day when he was strong enough to take revenge. And now Vic's strength was indeed enough to do so!
"Okay, Mr. Vic, I'll check right away, and I'll have the news later!"
If Ban says it's Vic's business on the island, many people on the island will be willing to help, making the investigation much faster.
"Okay, that's settled then. I'll come back later!" Vic said, standing up.
"You don't need to come in person. Where are you going? I'll just bring it to you!"
"No need, we want to explore the island. We don't have a specific address, so I'll come find you!"
"Okay, I'll go investigate now!"
"Um!"
After finishing his sentence, Vic led the three women away, ignoring the intense gazes of the others. The three women remained silent, creating a somewhat oppressive atmosphere.
"You don't need to do that. The dead cannot be brought back to life. I've let go of it all. Now, revenge is a piece of cake for me!"
Vic smiled and said to the three women.
The three girls saw that Vic's smile didn't seem fake, and they gradually relaxed.
Once the three girls arrived at the amusement park, they couldn't wait to play on the rides. Vic shook his head, thinking that there was too little entertainment in this world.
Sabaody is a magical island where bubbles can be used to make many useful tools, and of course, the amusement facilities here are also combined with bubbles.
The three girls were having a great time, but Vic kept a close eye on them. This wasn't a safe place; it was quite dangerous for three young and beautiful girls to be here, as it was also a place where human traffickers were rampant.
The human traffickers did notice the three women, but when they turned around, they saw Vic next to them and were so frightened that they immediately suppressed their evil thoughts!
That's not someone they can afford to mess with. Even their boss's boss would probably have to think twice before coming here!
" Smoker is so slow, he's still not here, how boring!" Hina complained as she got off the ride.
"Hehe, who knows, he might have some unusual fetishes!"
Vic found it somewhat amusing to recall Smoker's flushed face.
Smoker bought cigars at the store and was on his way to the amusement park in Zone 30, though he was walking slowly, looking around as he went.
"Hey beautiful, come aboard with us! We have a real gem on board, you know. I'll show you! Hehehe!"
"I'm not going, let me go..."
"Come on, I guarantee you'll like it..."
"You're pirates! I don't want to be! Help!"
"Hey, you bearded pirate, are you threatening someone? I can't pretend I didn't see it!"
After Smoker finished speaking, his arm turned into smoke, and his fist flew towards the pirate.
Caught off guard, the pirate was hit squarely, staggered back two steps by Smoker's punch, but the pirate just smiled nonchalantly.
The rescued woman quickly took the opportunity to run away. She hid behind Smoker. She had dark blue hair, was very beautiful, had big eyes, and was about 1.7 meters tall. She was really attractive.
Smoker is one of the elite members of the Elite Camp; his strength and power are considerable, demonstrating his formidable abilities as a pirate.
"Oh, you're an ability user? I advise you to mind your own business!"
"I'm a navy officer. Now that I've seen you, there's no reason for me to ignore it!"
"Hahaha, a kind-hearted navy man after all. Are you prepared to die?" the pirate said confidently.
"From the day I decided to join the Navy, I was prepared to give my life for justice at any time. Now, I need you to make a trip to the prison!"
"Stop talking big! A recruit like you has never seen the harsh realities of the world. You can't do it!"
"Enough talk, take this!"
Smoker used his old trick again, throwing a punch at the pirate, who was on guard this time and easily dodged it.
Taking advantage of the moment Smoker's fist flew out, the pirates quickly closed in on him, moving with incredible speed, and punched Smoker in the chest.
"Kid, you're still too green, hahaha!"
The pirate punched Smoker through the chest and was momentarily stunned.
Smoker, who had just been hit, then realized what was happening and threw another punch at the pirate.
The pirate was punched again by Smoker and sent flying.
The pirate drew his flintlock pistol and fired several shots at Smoker. All the bullets passed through Smoker's body and went into the sky.
" Logia, huh? No wonder you're so tough. Do you even know who I am?"
The pirate dropped his gun, stood up, brushed the dust off his spotted cloak, and glared fiercely at Smoker.
I don't care who you are, doing bad things is unacceptable!
"I am Avaro Pizarro, hahaha, the Corrupt King feared by all! You think a random navy soldier can arrest me? Well then, let's have some fun!"
Pizarro accelerated towards Smoker at incredible speed, covering his fists with Armament Haki and punching Smoker in the abdomen. Smoker had no chance to dodge; the speed exceeded that of the Six Powers Shave.
Smoker had no idea that this pirate possessed Haki, especially since this was the first half of the Grand Line! Smoker hadn't anticipated this at all; he had been careless.
A solid punch landed on Smoker's stomach, Smoker flying backward with blood trickling from his mouth.
Smoker didn't put in much effort in physical training, but he did put in a lot of effort in Devil Fruit.
Smoker was somewhat incredulous. He struggled to his feet and looked at Pizarro, who was badly injured by that attack!
When the blue-haired woman who had been rescued saw Smoker injured, a look of fear and worry immediately appeared on her face.
"You're Haki?"
"What do you think? Do you think you're invincible because of your Logia? I've told you to mind your own business for ages, but you just won't listen! You can't reason with a damn fool."
Pizarro stopped talking and continued the pursuit; he had no concept of morality.
Smoker quickly used Shave to dodge, but he was no match for Pizarro's speed, and Pizarro also had Armament Haki. He had already taken several hits.
Smoker also tried to retaliate, but his attacks were ineffective. Pizarro was thick-skinned and seemed to feel no pain, with no injuries whatsoever.
The two were locked in a tug-of-war for a long time. Smoker was exhausted, but Pizarro was still full of energy and very passive.
Smoker dodged a flying kick from his opponent, then transformed into his element and soared into the sky, preparing to attack from above.
But then Pizarro leaped up and caught up with Smoker, throwing another punch that sent Smoker back into human form, slamming him into the ground and creating a large crater.
The blow was incredibly powerful. Smoker coughed up a mouthful of blood, his internal organs were injured, and it took him a long time to stand up shakily.
At that moment, Pizarro kicked again, sending Smoker flying and spitting out another mouthful of blood.
"Help! Someone help me!"
The blue-haired woman who had been rescued was panicking. This young marine was no match for the pirate; in fact, he was powerless to fight back. She was still in danger, and Pizarro's companions were nearby.
"Hahaha, no need to shout anymore. Even if you shout until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save him. He's dead today. Who told him to anger me!"
Pizarro had already walked up to the helpless Smoker, grabbed Smoker by the neck with one hand, and lifted him into the air.
Smoker's legs twitched a few times before collapsing limply. He was badly injured, having used only his Haki in his attacks.
He usually relied on his Logia abilities and neglected his physical training. At this moment, Smoker's face was covered in blood, flowing from his forehead, his mouth, and dripping blood down his chin to the ground, drip, drip...
Pizarro was somewhat excited by Smoker's miserable state, and he tightened his grip even more. Smoker felt increasingly difficult to breathe, as if he were about to leave this world, and his mind gradually went blank, which was a sign of brain hypoxia.
The blue-haired woman sat on the ground, watching this scene, tears streaming down her face.
A crowd of onlookers had gathered around, but no one dared to interfere. They had witnessed Pizarro's strength firsthand; he was incredibly fast and had even defeated a Logia Fruit user. Logia users were already considered unattainable figures in their eyes.
Am I going to die here?
The thought crossed Smoker's mind...
