Chapter 299 Bulma: Huh? I Want to Be the Pirate King?

To be fair, Jack's strength is actually pretty good.

In a one-on-one fight, neither Brand nor Chitong would be able to defeat him.

However, three against one, the situation is different.

Brand and the others were originally strong. After experiencing the baptism of the Dragon Ball World Martial Arts Conference, their strength was much lower than that of Jack. And the cooperation between them is extremely tacit. At this moment, one was standing in front as a human shield, one was responsible for the frontal attack, and the other was waiting for a sneak attack on the flanks. Even if Jack activated "Elephant Fruit·Ancient Species·Mammoth Form", he was beaten back steadily, and he was defeated on both sides.

Originally, Jack's physical strength was that of a longboard, which could theoretically last him a whole day.

but.

The knife in Chitong's hand seems to be a low-end version of "Murasame". Although it cannot kill with one strike like the former, it also contains strong neurotoxins. These toxins accumulated over time, paralyzing half of Jack's body. Finally, Brand slashed him from the sky and fell straight into the crack of the iceberg, unable to move.

Crash--

Huge force poured out in all directions.

Centered around the place where the four men fought, rocks of all sizes were shattered and broken repeatedly, and then rolled down the cliff. Some fell onto the ice-covered sea, while others landed on the Mammoth, leaving gouges of varying depths on the deck.

Now, the crew members on the "Mammoth" were even more nervous.

the other side.

Uchiha Hikaru breathed a sigh of relief:

"……it's over."

"Get ready to see off the guests, Xiao Ai."

"good."

Hearing Uchiha Hikari's words, Esdeath nodded, then stretched out his hand forward, pressing his palm on the iceberg cliff outside the ship's side.

"call……"

Invisible arrogance puffed out from the palm of his hand.

After about ten seconds of silence, a "click" was heard, and the first tiny crack appeared inside the iceberg.

Then the second, third...

Countless cracks formed in a matter of seconds, and spread crazily in all directions at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a spider web that was gradually being woven. As the cracks spread, the huge iceberg gradually fell apart. Ice rocks that were much larger than before were rolled down in all directions along with scattered ice chips!

Rumble——

As the iceberg disintegrated, Jack, who was originally trapped in the mountain, fell deeper into the crack, fell into the cold sea in the blink of an eye, and disappeared.

More ice and rocks followed, churning the sea surface within a few kilometers and gradually setting off a huge wave.

Uchiha Hikari opened the blood jade barrier in time to block the water waves outside.

But the people on the "Mammoth" on the opposite side did not have this ability. Several masts were quickly broken by the ice rocks above, and then were swept up by the waves raised below. The huge hull was now like a Ye Bianzhou was teetering on the rough waves, and many people were thrown into the sea.

It is also in this process.

A considerable number of fish were swept up high by the waves and landed on the deck of the Blue Planet.

Hmm...the kind that's frozen by ice.

Not only is it delivered to your door, it also eliminates the need for refrigeration.

Bulma happily took Tanjiro and Naruto to collect the frozen fish, preparing to put them in the warehouse and make soup for everyone later.

Uchiha Hikaru raised his head at this moment, looking across the ice and snow in the sky to somewhere several kilometers away.

There, there was originally a cliff of ice.

But at this moment, a white seagull suddenly fluttered its wings and flew into the sky, turning into a small black dot in the high blue sky.

"What's wrong, Xiaoguang, is there anything worth paying attention to over there?"

Esdeath caught a glimpse of Uchiha Hikari's small movements. He first turned to look at her, then followed her gaze to the sky, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Is there something wrong with that flying bird? Do you need me to chase it and kill it?"

"...It's not necessary."

Uchiha Hikaru shook his head, then smiled: "I just suddenly thought of something."

The thing she was thinking of was a unique creature in the pirate world——

News Bird.

That's right.

Uchiha Hikaru was a little suspicious. The white seagull just now might not be an ordinary bird, but a staff member of the "World News Economic Agency".

If I remember correctly, in addition to serving as newsboys and delivering newspapers to islands around the world, these birds seem to also serve as "war reporters." Many big news in the pirate world were captured and reported in the first place through them.

——For example, "Jack's death" in the original plot and the alliance between Luffy and Law were almost all reported the day after the incident occurred.

so……

"If that guy is really a news bird, then...is our battle with Jack worthy of being published in the newspaper?"

"Also, if the Navy sets a bounty for the Dimension Pirates..."

Then how much are people like myself and Bulma worth?

Uchiha Hikari was curious about this question.

But curiosity is curiosity.

At this moment, she had another question that she needed to verify first.

"call out--!"

Along with a gust of wind, Uchiha Hikaru performed the dance technique and flew into the air, passed through the fragmented iceberg, and came to the top of the "Mammoth" a mile or two away.

To be precise, the "Mammoth" was almost sinking at this moment.

After all, the main structure of this ship is made of wood, which is far less sturdy than the warship modified by Bulma. Even if Esdeath has no subjective intention to sink it, the aftermath of the iceberg disintegration alone is already unbearable for these guys.

However, most of the crew members on this ship are not Devil Fruit users.

So they are all floating in the sea at this moment. Several of them climbed onto the tilted deck, looked at Uchiha Hikari in the air with horror, and then heard her speak calmly:

"Hey, you guys."

"Ask a question, how many years is it in the Sea Circle Calendar now?"

"...Ah?"

Faced with Uchiha Hikari's inquiry, a group of crew members under Jack looked at each other, looking like they didn't know how to make it big.

"So you are a group of illiterates who have never learned the calendar... Then let's change the question, where has the Whitebeard Pirates been active recently?"

"Blue Planet" just sailed out from the nameless sea fishing near Wano Country this morning. It has not yet decided where to go, but Whitebeard must meet. After all, Yamato is still a little worried about Ace's life and death.

However, the New World itself is a very vast sea area, and Whitebeard does not seem to have a long-awaited territory like Kaido and Big Mom. Instead, he prefers to stay on the ship with his "sons", so it is probably not easy to find him without asking the locals for directions.

"Whitebeard... How do we know where he is? Shouldn't this matter be controlled by your navy?"

A tall and strong crew member responded.

"... Navy?"

Uchiha Hikaru was stunned.

The tall crew member was also stunned: "Isn't it Admiral Aokiji who created this iceberg just now? Although I don't know what conspiracy you have disguised as a pirate group and appeared here, since I have been planted in your hands, you can kill me or cut me up, whatever you want!"

"..."

Okay.

Esdeath's ability is indeed very similar to Aokiji's.

From the perspective of the natives of the pirate world, it is hard to imagine that someone can have the ability to freely control ice and snow without eating devil fruits.

So it is reasonable to mistake Esdeath for Aokiji without seeing her face.

But...

"Aokiji and Akanji, remember, the one who defeated you is not someone else, but Captain Bulma of the 'Dimensional Pirates'!"

"She is the woman who wants to conquer this sea and become the Pirate King!"

After helping his "captain" to clear his name.

Uchiha Hikaru looked at the "Mammoth" that was about to sink completely, thought for a while, took out a universal capsule from his body, and threw it.

Bang——!

The smoke dissipated, and a brand new motorboat appeared on the sea.

"Well, this small boat will be regarded as compensation for sinking your ship. Remember to promote our pirate group more after you go back, the more exaggerated the better."

——Reputation, it needs someone to brag to rise. Killing everyone present, that is what Akagi and others would do as killers, not in line with the style of "pirates".

"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I almost told you."

"Our pirate group just came from Onigashima and has beaten your boss Kaido half to death. If you don't believe it, just go back and take a look. If Kaido wants to seek revenge on us, the 'Dimensional Pirates' are always ready to accompany him."

Uchiha Hikaru added lightly.

After saying that, she tapped her toes and flew back along the way she came, leaving the crew of the "Mammoth" looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Lord Kaido, was he defeated by this little girl?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, this little girl must be deliberately intimidating us..."

"But, if they are really the navy, even Admiral Aokiji has come out in person, then aren't the other people on the ship also masters of the navy? Could it be that the World Government has issued a "Demon Slaying Order" to us, wanting to completely wipe out the Beasts Pirates?!"

"... Let's not discuss these things first, it's important to rescue Lord Jack!"

After a discussion, two crew members jumped into the sea, diving all the way down in the freezing cold water, preparing to salvage Jack who sank to the bottom of the sea.

The other few people, looking at the motorboat on the sea, fell into deep thought.

"Is this thing... also a boat? How to drive it?"

...

"Big news, this is big news!"

This is the headquarters of the "World News Economic Society".

Morgans, who looks like an albatross, danced with joy as he listened to the report of his subordinates, the seagulls.

"'Drought Jack' was killed, and Admiral Aokiji appeared at sea and was with the pirates... This is a big event that can shock the world!"

"Where did you see them fighting? Is it too late to rush over and take pictures now?"
