Achieving Nothing, I Can Only Be the Pirate King-Chapter 630 - 374: The Monster Who Inherited Whitebeard’s Power (Part 2)
Two months of waiting had been torturous for him.
This high-speed voyage meant everyone had to stay confined and secure inside the cabin, making it impossible to move around freely.
Sage wanted to throw a party on the ship but couldn’t, and now this transport job was finally over.
Sage finished his drink, placed the glass down, and Bella, standing by his side, quickly refilled it.
"Not doing that again. No wonder those guys rarely venture into the Four Seas; it really is a hassle."
Not far away, Link’s ears perked up, and he came over, "Master Sage, if we’re short of hands, shouldn’t we advertise a bit...?"
"Do you know how to do that?"
Sage rolled his eyes, "I don’t have pigeons, and I don’t have bats. Let’s postpone the news business for now and focus on securing our territory first."
The six major industries of the underworld were something he definitely intended to get involved in, but right now, his territory wasn’t stable, and nothing else was settled, so it wasn’t feasible.
The news industry, which can release information at any time, was something Sage had valued early on, but valuing it was useless without capability.
He’s a pirate; in his own territory, does he really need a newspaper to convey messages?
He could just broadcast the news.
Outside, who would even read a pirate’s newspaper? Through what channels would it be distributed?
The leader in the news industry, Morgans, could control seagulls.
The World Government also had messenger bats.
And the smaller newspaper services have their own channels, such as Quick-Running Lizards and Super Spot-Billed Ducks within Alabasta, which can deliver newspapers accurately.
Moreover, the World Government definitely wouldn’t allow a pirate to publish newspapers freely.
If he had the capability, he could publish whatever he wanted, attracting more people here.
Sage had previously thought about capturing Morgans, but these ’emperors’ of the underworld are all incredibly elusive.
For instance, that guy Du·Feld, Sage hadn’t even found information to settle accounts with him yet.
"If you have ideas, then keep an eye out, or experiment on your own; you know the rules," Sage said.
"Understood, Master Sage." Link retreated.
Buying and selling slaves could also be a good idea, as they could be used for labor once brought over.
All it would take is a price of 50,000 Belly per person.
But Sage was unwilling to spend money buying slaves, which meant slave traders wouldn’t be lured here.
Of course, it’s also possible for slave traders to capture a large group of people here and sell them within the World Government’s domain.
After all, non-adhering countries have no human rights.
Link hadn’t been gone long before Lily came in from outside, her expression a bit serious.
"What happened?"
Seeing Lily’s expression, Sage knew something might be wrong.
Lily didn’t mince words, saying directly:
"Hawkins’ men called; he and Urouge encountered Edward Weevil on Parti Island. They can’t repel him and are likely to fail."
"Edward Weevil?"
Sage was momentarily stunned, realizing something, "Oh... Whitebeard the Second. Didn’t he become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea? Why is he on my territory?"
"Strictly speaking, it’s not our territory yet, as it’s not conquered..."
Lily asked, "Should we gather everyone to board the ship now, or let Hawkins and Urouge retreat early?"
"No need for that!"
Sage finished his newly poured wine, heavily placed the Gemstone Wine Glass down, then extended his hand, which Lily immediately understood, promptly grabbing the fur cloak from the nearby coat rack and handing it over.
"I’ll go personally, to where was it again?"
"Parti, the Eternal Pose is ready."
Lily seemed to understand what Sage was about to say and took out the Eternal Pose, "Calculating the journey, it will take about eleven days at the speed of the Death Star from our location."
Sage grinned, throwing the cloak over his shoulders while standing up.
As he stood, the still-celebrating pirates all turned to look.
"Continue the party, everyone! I’ll be right back!"
Sage laughed heartily, walked to the courtyard, and with a casual kick, uprooted a tree.
Immediately after, he lifted the tree with both hands, aimed it in the direction indicated by the Eternal Pose, and as the cloak billowed, he hurled it with great force.
"Hundredfold!"
The moment the tree left his hand, it almost vanished from everyone’s sight, and with it, Sage’s body also disappeared.
The next moment, far off in the sky, Sage stood on the tree, with the cloak wildly flapping in the turbulent air, becoming a tiny dot on the horizon along with the tree, rapidly vanishing from view.
Having a ship and not having one makes quite a difference to Sage.
A ship is a necessary tool for sailing the seas, a spiritual symbol, and consideration must be given to the ship’s quality when sailing faster, whether it can endure continuous high speed.
But these trees don’t need that, they can be destroyed and it’s fine.
So his speed will only be faster!
...
Two hours later.
Parthi Island’s port.
As a Magnetic Field Island, the entire island belongs to a tropical climate, full of jungles and various beasts, with many places untouched by people, so there aren’t that many people and no actual country.
This port town is already considered the center of the island, with a significant population, but now the port area is full of broken-down buildings, every structure is shattered.
Boom!
Hawkins’ body flew backward, smashing against a half-destroyed building, completely collapsing it.
The gigantic body of a golden-haired monster leaped high, holding a naginata in both hands, slashing down with a force that seemed to tear the air and split it open.
"All Things Are Impermanent!"
As the naginata was about to slash down, a thick lead pillar flew from the other side, crashing straight over.
Bang!
The slashing naginata abruptly turned, cutting the rhomboid surface of the lead pillar with sparks flying, spinning the pillar away.
"Rice Straw Hand-Prepared Blade!"
From within the ruins of the building, a long strand of rice straw stretched out, bending in the air, and stabbing toward the monster’s thick neck filled with stitched scars.
Bang!
The same crisp sound resounded.
The swinging naginata rapidly turned, slashing the approaching rice straw, its massive and heavy body crashing down quickly.
At that moment, Hawkins emerged from the ruins, having transformed into a giant Scarecrow, quickly dodging to the side.
Boom!!
"Roar!"
The falling body crashed, creating a circle of air waves, blowing away the building debris, and roared fiercely, slamming the naginata into the ground, creating a dent, throwing stones at the fleeing Hawkins.
No time to dodge!
The terrifying face of the Scarecrow was full of solemnity, the soft straw body suddenly began to dance, and the rice straw sword appeared in front, like grass blown by the wind.
Yet with added Haki.
"Kami-e·Kake!"
Using Kami-e’s dodge ability, combined with this straw body to resist the attack.
Just like being blown by the wind, dissipating the force while borrowing power, if nothing else, allowing Hawkins to retreat smoothly.
Bang!!
But the naginata hadn’t even touched the rice straw sword defending Hawkins when a barrier separated at the blade’s edge, forcibly bending his rice straw sword, slamming toward the body.
Externalized Haki!
Can’t block!
Just then, Urouge jumped from behind, heavily landing next to Hawkins, his hands infused with Haki, colliding forward in a rigid moment.
"Tekkai Golden Square!"
Boom! 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Urouge’s arms collided with the naginata’s Haki, blocking the incoming naginata with Hawkins.
"It’s useless!"
But quickly, with a furious roar, the naginata smoothly swung forward, the strong Haki sending both of them flying, crashing into the ground with a boom and raising a cloud of dust.
"Tell me the legacy’s clues!"
Edward Weevil shouted: "I’m Whitebeard’s son, I’ll inherit everything from Dad!"
Before the dust dissipated, Urouge was the first to get up, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at the bleeding slash on his arm with a smile tinged with bitterness, "What a monstrous power..."
"And Haki..."
Seriously injured, Hawkins stepped out of the dust, took a deep breath, looking at the beast-like Weevil in front holding a naginata, pursed his lips, and said in a deep voice:
"A real monster indeed."
Edward Weevil, claiming to be Whitebeard’s son, known as ’Whitebeard the Second,’ as people called him, is no exaggeration; although he may not have inherited Whitebeard’s strength, he certainly inherited Whitebeard’s power!
