OPI Chapter 35: Shiryu’s Style!
🕑 Added 2023-10-28 17:31:55 +0000 UTCTwo hours later, the warship where Shiryu was located successfully encountered another warship. Following the Commodore's instructions, Shiryu walked alone along the gangplank to the deck of the second warship.
At the same time, I saw the back of Sakazuki standing on the bow of the ship at a glance.
In Shiryu's eyes, although Vice Admiral Sakazuki was one head taller than him, the aura he exuded from his whole body was more powerful than Magellan's.
This made him feel a little heavy, and his expression had already calmed down.
“Reporting to Vice Admiral Sakazuki, the former Head Jailer of Impel Down and now the Rear Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, Shiryu reports to you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sakazuki turned around slowly, folded his arms across his chest, and glanced around the former with an oppressive gaze.
“Head Jailer of Impel Down, you are responsible for guarding prisoners. What do you think of pirates? Tell me!”
When Shiryu heard this, he subconsciously thought about the other party's intentions. His understanding of Sakazuki was limited to what was introduced in the newspaper, the Admiral candidate title and the Logia-type Magma-Magma Fruit ability. As for his personality, likes and dislikes, these were completely unknown.
In this case, he chose to answer according to his own heart.
"A lot of garbage. Except for those with skills, the others should not be locked up and waste food. If they need to be reused, they can be used as shooting targets for soldiers and as targets for testing blades."
Sakazuki raised his brows. Although his expression was calm, he felt very satisfied in his heart. He originally thought that if a merciful person showed up, he would just kick him out and let him swim back to Marineford to wait for reassignment.
"Yes, I hope you can keep your promise later." After saying that, he ordered the marines standing by: "Let's go!"
"Yes!"
The sailor quickly ran back to the cabin to deliver the order. Soon, the huge ship under his feet started to move.
“You should have some understanding of this mission, right?” Sakazuki asked in a deep voice.
Shiryu nodded. On his way here, he had already read the mission content sent by the other party. It said that the Kingdom of Maidan, located on the first half of the Grand Line, route 1, and the fourth island, was attacked by a large number of pirates.
Route No. 1 was close to the Calm Belt where Impel Down was located, so the warships were relatively close. When Sakazuki heard the words 'a large number of pirates', he immediately took on the mission without giving Marineford or other nearby warships a chance.
Furthermore, in order to hurry up, Sakazuki did not go to Impel Down to pick up Shiryu, but instead asked the latter to come quickly on someone else's warship.
“I will not take the first step in this mission; you will lead the team to solve it!”
"No problem, I'm looking forward to it too." Shiryu touched the red-banded hilt of the 'Raiu' on his waist with his right hand and showed a cold smile.
He really didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to go out to kill after entering the Navy. He was even more pleased with the job change this time, but his superior seemed too strong.
In Impel Down, although he, was the third-in-command, he was actually equivalent to the second-in-command. Except for the orders of Chief Warden Columbus, he did not have to deal with anyone at all, including Vice Warden Magellan.
As for the other Chief Guards and Guards, seeing him was like a mouse seeing a cat.
As for Chief Warden Columbus, unless the World Government needs his cooperation, he usually doesn't have a strong sense of presence and doesn't talk much. He even turns a blind eye to the private killings of prisoners from time to time, and basically doesn't care about the first four floors. In his eyes, prisoners, starting from the fifth level, with bounties worth hundreds of millions, are considered important assets.
Instead, Magellan often scolded him for these things, which was why he was so upset with him. Hadn't he killed some little bastards? Why bother him endlessly?
When a warship carefully manufactured by the shipwrights of the Capital of Water sailed at full speed, it showed amazing efficiency and speed, and arrived in the waters near the Kingdom of Maidan in only one hour.
At this distance, Sakazuki, Shiryu and others on the deck could already hear the roar brought by the sea breeze. Looking from a distance, they could vaguely see seven or eight warships flying the pirate flag, heading towards the towns on the island were bombarded continuously.
One of the ships gradually stopped shelling and slowly turned its bow, seemingly about to sail out of the dock and prepare to leave.
“It seems we have been discovered.” Shiryu smiled.
I saw him casually taking out a cigar, putting it in his mouth and lighting it on fire. Whenever he wanted to kill someone, and when he killed many people, his mood would get excited. Taking a puff of cigarette at this time was the biggest thing for him enjoyment.
Sakazuki did not respond or interfere with his words and actions. Since he had previously said that he would leave the task to the other party, he would just let him do it.
Of course, he wouldn’t really let the pirates escape in front of him.
[Swoosh!]
The next second, like other naval officers, Shiryu, dressed in a coat of justice, turned into an afterimage and disappeared, leaving only a light trail of smoke floating in the air.
This made all the officers and sailors on the deck look forward to the next performance of the adjutant.
At the same time, other pirate warships also stopped their bombardment and hurriedly turned their bows. Apparently, they also discovered the approaching huge warship.
Among them, the first ship to react has completed its turn and is heading in the other direction.
“Hurry! Hurry up!”
“Now is not the time to fight the navy!”
On the pirate ship, a giant man in iron armor, nearly four meters tall, with a strong build and a fierce face, waved the machete in his hand and shouted loudly.
The other pirates on the ship, whether in temperament or clothing, looked like very normal soldiers. In short, they didn't look like pirates.
[Whoosh!]
At this moment, a sharp sound of breaking through the air rang in the ears, causing the giant man and the crew members to change their expressions. The first one even instinctively shouted: "Beware of the bombardment!"
Not just him, everyone thought that the warship in the distance had fired.
But after a few seconds, the sound of passing through the air disappeared, and nothing happened. There was not even a water explosion in the sea, nor was the hull bombed.
This made rows of ‘golden question marks’ light up on their heads.
“Hey, trash, it’s time to die, so smile~”
Suddenly, an evil and sinister laugh rang out from above. Everyone looked up and saw a three-meter-tall naval officer standing on top of the mast with bright red eyes looking at them mockingly.
"You...!"
The giant man raised his machete and pointed it at the other person, and just as he was about to say something cruel, the person in his field of vision disappeared in the blink of an eye, except for a slight flash of blood-red light.
“Ka! Boss Cass!”
The surrounding pirates were shocked because they saw the marine who was on the mast a second ago standing behind Chief Cass, and the long blade at his waist was already drawn, flashing coldly under the sunlight.
At the same time, a thin line of blood gradually appeared on the giant man's neck, and the armor on his body turned into pieces and fell to the ground.
Who knows how many times he was chopped at this moment?
Shiryu didn’t even look at Cass behind him. Even though the man in front of him was still breathing and conscious, he was still a corpse in his eyes.
[Whoosh!]
The next second, his whole body turned into a white afterimage, flying at high speed among the screams and screams of hundreds of armed pirates, and streaks of blood-red sword light were drawn in the air.
Shiryu was a murderer. He didn't like to cut up and destroy ships. Instead, he liked to chop them to death one by one with his sword. The feeling of the blade cutting through the flesh really made him intoxicated.
There is a saying that killing people is a bad habit, but he can no longer quit it!
