Chapter 593: The land of paradise and Wano? ! (2 in 1)

Ace and Sabo's wait in Cocosia Village finally paid off.

Looking at the three pirate ships heading towards the island quickly from the distant sea, Sabo, who had rushed to the coast, took the first action.

His figure turned into a flash of lightning and instantly disappeared beside Ace. In the blink of an eye, he had descended above the three pirate ships in the distance.

At this moment on the pirate ship, the pirates were looking at the island that was getting closer and closer with excitement on their faces, with bloodthirsty smiles on their lips.

It is not as easy for pirates in the East China Sea as in other places. These people can reach a cooperation with Colonel Mouse, and they can be considered to live a "superior" life in the East China Sea pirate circle.

The vast majority of East China Sea pirates can only engage in minor actions, and if they make the slightest noise they will be attacked by the navy.

In this ocean, pirates with bounties exceeding 10 million are extremely rare.

As for other pirates who also make a living in the four seas, such as the pirates in the West Sea, the bounty can be as high as over 100 million.

The bounty of pirates is often positively correlated with their strength and the harm they cause to the current social structure.

A pirate with a bounty of three or four million is not even as good as the "King of Bandits" Sig, whose bounty is as high as 800 million Baileys.
But for ordinary people, pirates with big ships, artillery and guns are equivalent to invincible heavenly soldiers. Even the weakest pirate group is not something that ordinary people can contend with.

The three pirate ships were led by three men, all of whom were "old subordinates" who worked closely with Colonel Mouse. They were also instructed by Colonel Mouse to go to the island and teach the residents of Cocosia a lesson.

The order given by Colonel Mouse was to kill the sheriff Ajian and some disobedient guys, such as former navy officer Bellmer. After all, Cocosia Village was under the jurisdiction of Colonel Mouse himself. If there was too much noise here and the Navy Headquarters knew about it, it would be detrimental to his "political achievements".

Yes, he did not intend to resort to violence in Kokosia Village because he was afraid that large-scale casualties would affect his career. For a man of his age, becoming a colonel was not his final step.

However, Colonel Mouse probably didn't expect that the insignificant people in Kokosia Village, whom he looked down upon, had already found reliable helpers for him.

On the pirate ship, a bearded man with his chest exposed drew a long sword from his waist, looked at the approaching coast, and shouted loudly to the pirates behind him:

"Guys, when we get to the island, find the person and kill him first!"

"Cut off his head and hang it on the flag in the center of the village!"

"After we finish our business, you can do whatever you want."

"Kill fewer people, we will come back next time!"

The pirate captain's words made the men under his command howl one after another. The pirates, whose desires had been ignited, had their emotions completely aroused. It was not difficult to imagine what these people would do after arriving on the island.

"Are you the leader?!"

At this moment, a flash of lightning fell from the sky and landed directly on the top of the mast.

Sabo's clear voice reached the pirates' ears, causing the pirates on the deck to turn around and look in the direction where the voice came from.

Seeing a stranger suddenly appear on the ship, the pirates couldn't help but become nervous.

"Um?!"

"Who are you? How did you get on the boat?!"

At the bow, the bearded burly man pointed the long knife in his hand at Sabo on the top of the mast and shouted sternly.

Sabo is very young and doesn't look strong, but because of this, the pirates will become more vigilant.

Everyone who walks on this ocean understands one thing: never underestimate any stranger.

Especially this kind of guy who can appear on the ship silently.

The pirates on the ship have already raised their spears and pointed them at Sabo on the high ground, waiting for the captain's order, and then they will immediately pull the trigger to kill the newcomer.

However, the bearded man had some hope in his heart and did not make such a decision immediately.

"I?"

"I'm a marine!"

Sabo leaped lightly and dived down towards the bearded man at the bow.

Seeing Sabo suddenly take action, the pirates immediately pulled the trigger. A burst of dense gunfire rang out on the deck, and countless bullets shot towards Sabo. However, when the bullets touched Sabo's body, the pirates only saw a flash of lightning arc on Sabo's body, and then the bullets penetrated Sabo's body and disappeared.

"???"

"Ability user!!!"

"Are you Sabo, the Navy supernova stationed in Rogue Town?"

This strange scene shocked the pirates on the ship, but the captain, who was targeted by Sabo, was more knowledgeable and immediately let out a low cry.

As Sabo's figure fell, the bearded man had already seen the other person's face clearly and recognized Sabo's identity.

"Hey, I didn't expect you knew me."

Sabo's figure landed in front of the burly man. He stretched out one hand and quickly grabbed the other's arm. The electric current instantly ran through the pirate. The bearded burly man didn't even feel anything. His eyes turned white and he fell headfirst onto the deck.

Sabo, who subdued his opponent with one blow, did not stay on the ship for long. He grabbed the bearded man and jumped. When he was still a hundred meters away from the distant island, he stepped on the moon and quickly left the pirate ship.

Before the pirates on the deck could even react, their captain had already been captured by the enemy.

By the time they reacted and started shooting at Sabo's retreating back, Sabo had already flown dozens of meters and the flintlock bullets could no longer hit Sabo in mid-air.

On the distant coast, the villagers who heard the sound of the gong were quickly gathering towards the coast. All of them were young and strong men in the village, holding hoes and hayforks as tools.

When the enemy arrived, the people in the village did not choose to sit and wait for death, but took the initiative to fight against the invasion of pirates.

However, when they arrived, they happened to see a black shadow taking off from the pirate ship, and Ace, who was standing on the shore with his back to them, also made a move.

"Hurry up and get rid of these pirates, catch the rat and go back."

"It's been a few days since we came out. We both left Rogue Town. I don't know if there have been any pirates causing trouble in Rogue Town during this period of time?"

Ace whispered to himself and held out his hand, his fist already covered in blazing flames.

The next second, Ace swung his fist at the pirate ship on the far right in the distance, and a pillar of fire with a diameter of nearly three meters shot out directly. In the blink of an eye, it had crossed a hundred meters and instantly hit the pirate ship.

"Boom!!!" The pillar of fire released by Ace instantly penetrated the entire pirate ship. A violent explosion also occurred on the ship. The flames that shot up into the sky directly blew through the plywood. A pirate ship with a length of nearly 20 meters was directly blown to pieces. The burning wreckage exploded and splashed into the sea, making a "hissing" sound.

"Yang Yan·Zhan!"

Ace, who succeeded in his attack, did not stop for a moment. He swung his fist and swept his arm suddenly. The pillar of fire shot out and swept across the sea in an instant, hitting the other two pirate ships one after another.

Several loud explosions sounded in succession at sea, and the pirate ship that was originally heading towards the coast was also engulfed in flames. The pirates on the ship either jumped into the sea with screams, or were directly buried in the fire. In just a blink of an eye, the three pirate ships that were planning to invade Cocosia Village were completely destroyed.

The pirates on the ship were either dead or injured, and had completely lost their combat effectiveness.

The villagers standing on the shore were stunned by the scene before them. The young and strong men held weapons in their hands, their mouths wide open with an expression of disbelief.

How could they, who work hard all day long, have ever seen a strong man with such strength?
A navy of Colonel Mouse's level is already an unattainable mountain for these villagers, and a natural fruit ability user like Ace is simply a "superman" to them.

At this time, Bellmère also rushed to the shore with a gun in hand. She squeezed out of the crowd and opened her mouth in surprise when she saw the burning pirate ship on the sea.

Even though she came from the navy, she had never seen a strong man like Ace.

After all, her understanding of the navy was too shallow, and the appearance of Ace also refreshed her understanding of the navy.

However, her mental quality was better than other ordinary people. After a brief moment of astonishment, a look of joy appeared on her face.

She knew she had made the right bet!

"call out!"

There was a sound of breaking air in the sky, and Sabo returned to the coast with the captives and landed next to Ace.

"This guy should be an officer, or a pirate ship captain."

"I happened to see this guy giving orders when I passed by. I should be able to get results after interrogating him."

Sabo threw the prisoner onto the beach and spoke to Ace beside him.

Ace looked at the pirate with a sidelong glance, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he turned around and shouted to the residents behind him:
"My name is Ace! I'm the base commander of the G-5 branch of the Navy in Rogue Town!"

"We have already killed the pirates, you don't have to worry!"

"Next, we will interrogate this prisoner. We have also heard about the 16th branch."

"If the evidence is conclusive, we will definitely bring Rat Rat to justice."

"Please trust our navy."

Ace's words of introducing himself brought everyone back to reality. Looking at the two high-spirited young men in front of him, the islanders of Kokosia Village immediately burst into warm cheers.

These people who have lived on this island all their lives are so simple and honest. No matter what kind of suffering Colonel Mouse has made them endure, as long as the navy can liberate them from such suffering, they will still support the navy.

Listening to the cheers of the islanders, the smile on Ace's face faded.

Not only did he not feel any happiness at this moment, but he felt guilty and self-blaming when he saw these cheering people.

People's expectations of the navy seem to be a bit too low
While Ace and Sabo were acting as heroes in the Cocosia Village, Tsugikuni Yoriichi had already transformed into a golden phoenix and was flying rapidly towards the New World.

"A thousand miles a day" is simply not enough to describe the speed of Tsugikuni Yoshiichi's flying. In less than half a month, he had crossed the East China Sea, passed the first half of the Grand Route, and approached the Red Earth Continent.

Wano Country is a blockaded island.

There is no way or method known to the outside world to enter Wano Country. Even the Whitebeard Pirates back then only crossed the natural barrier surrounding Wano Country and entered the main island by chance.

Not to mention whether others have a record pointer pointing to Wano Country, even if there is such a record pointer, it is not easy to enter Wano Country by boat.

But these are not difficulties at all for the succession of the country.

He has already obtained the permanent record pointer to Wano Country from Pluto Rayleigh, and the natural barrier that blocks Wano Country is no obstacle for Yoriichi who has the ability to fly.

After flying over the Red Earth Continent, following the guidance of the pointer, Yoshiichi Tsugakuni flew directly towards the direction of Wano Country.

With the alternation of day and night, Ji Wen, who had crossed the red earth continent and entered the new century, had arrived at the airspace of Wano Country in just 10 days.

It is autumn now.

Looking from top to bottom, Wano Country is still full of spring, with no sense of autumn at all.

High in the sky, Yoshiichi Tsugumi's sight seemed to be able to see the scenery of Wano Country Island through layers of taro clouds.

Suddenly, the huge phoenix body shrank rapidly, and the figure of Yoshiichirō Tsugikuni appeared and then fell towards Wano Country.

Deep in a bamboo forest outside Huadu.

A rustling sound came from the forest, and Jiguo Yuanyi, wearing a black robe, slowly walked out of the forest. He looked around and a hint of nostalgia appeared on his face.

Bamboo forest
Since he came to the pirate world, he has never seen a scene so similar to his previous life.

There is no other plant like bamboo growing anywhere in the world.

Yuanyi smelled the fresh bamboo fragrance in the forest, and for a moment he was a little dazed.

"Wano Country is indeed somewhat different from other islands."

The moment he arrived in Wano Country, Tsugakuni Yoriichi's observation Haki had already swept across the entire island. He could sense the emotions of the people on the island. That kind of contentment was something he had never felt on any other island.

In the chaotic world of pirates, the isolated Wano Country is like a paradise.

Here, the people have their own administrative system. Although not every family here is wealthy, they do not feel too strong pressure to survive.

The country of Wano, where the four seasons are like spring, is rich in resources. The general who leads the country, although not very wise, will not do anything stupid.

Overall, the first impression of Wano Country left on Yoriichi Tsugakuni was pretty good.

This also reduced his desire to kill the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates.
