Chapter 344 4 emperors, 0 plus. D. Maud.

In this world, there are only a handful of names that can make the world fear.

The current Four Emperors Shanks, Kaido, Charlotte Lingling, and the late Whitebeard are among them.

It takes a certain level of courage for the average person to even mention these names.

This is the effect of the fame of the Four Emperors.

Today, with the reputation that Maud now has, it can already be comparable to Shanks and the others, and it can even be said that it is even better.

But that's not enough.

Or, what's the point of just being feared by a swarm of harmless ants?

What Maud has to do is to let the World Government, the Navy Headquarters, and even the Four Emperors and countless pirates in the New World—

Dread him, look down on him, fear him.

If you can't, destroy them.

Shanks looked at Maud with a strange look in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart.

He realizes-

This junior with infinite possibilities beside him is finally willing to raise his head and look in the direction of the vertex.

"d..."

Roger's smiling face flashed through Shanks' mind, and his mood was quite complicated for a while.

Who will be waiting?

Could it be Maud who has already stood in the same position as him?

Or was it Luffy who said the same thing as the captain many years ago?

Shanks had an inexplicable feeling of suddenly losing his direction.

Aokiji and Jesus were all staring at Maud's back.

make the world fear...

For others to say this, it will only make people laugh.

But Maud is different.

No one present would question what he said.

because.

With the terrifying potential that Modena has shown to the world, any defiant and arrogant words he says are full of convincing power.

"Hoho..."

Lafayette's gaze towards Maud was full of excitement.

The original choice-

Without a doubt the best choice he has ever made in his life.

"The people who can reach the top of the world are always those who can be counted on one hand."

"But Maud will definitely be one of them."

"I can assure you of that."

Lafayette flashed through his mind what Thor had said to him in the woods.

The deceased senior was indeed one of the strongest snipers in the last era. In terms of eyesight, he could see clearly.

"I've been waiting for this moment."

Lafayette muttered to himself in his heart.

Before stepping into the great waterway, Maud promised him,

Take him to appreciate the top scenery.

But Lafayette knew that wasn't what Maud wanted.

That kind of motivation is more based on [helping family members fulfill their dreams] as the starting point.

But it's different now.

A smile slowly appeared on Lafayette's almost pale face, which seemed to be smeared with thick foundation.

Compared to Lafayette's excitement, Aokiji could only watch Maud quietly.

No matter what means Maud wants to use to achieve what he said, he can only choose to push Maud.

Because that's the choice he made.

After a brief period of surprise, Jesus cloth patted Maud on the back with a smile, and said seriously: "You are very arrogant, but there is always a feeling that you will do what you say."

"We're all here, don't you want to see Usopp?"

Maud looked back at Jesus cloth and repeated the old words.

"..."

Jesus Bu's face shook a little and said helplessly: "You have said this four times since boarding the boat, so please forgive me."

"What an incompetent father, Jesus."

Maud shook his head slightly.

On the occasion of the advance city two days ago, I could understand Jesus Bu's decision to meet Usopp.

But now that everyone has arrived at the Terror Barque, they are still sneaking, and have no plans to visit their biological son whom they have not seen for many years.

Jesus cloth touched his nose, unable to refute Maud's words, only the chicken thief changed the subject.

"Boss, come here, don't you want to see Luffy?"

"..."

Hearing this, Shanks glanced at the Jesus cloth that led the fire to him in a speechless manner.

After the war, the Terror Barques came specially, mainly for Thor.

Moreover, if I go to meet Luffy now, it will undoubtedly break the agreement with Luffy.

There was a time when they were so worried that after they parked the boat, they could only sneak up to find Maud, and only three people came up.

Shanks didn't speak, or directly ignored Jesus cloth and looked at Maud.

"I'll keep an eye out for Jabba's whereabouts."

"Well, please excuse me."

Maud nodded slowly.

There are still many things to do in the future, and finding the whereabouts of Jabba is the most urgent thing at present.

If things don't go well, Maud can only catch a few more Draconians and use them as bargaining chips to get information from the Navy.

"Boss, we should go."

Beckman squeezed out the cigarette and reminded aloud.

This time, they attacked with almost the entire army. After the war, they should have returned to the site of the New World as soon as possible. On the one hand, it was just in case, and on the other hand, the brothers who were injured in the war were allowed to recuperate.

But in order to come to the Terror Barque, they wasted two days before and after, and the voyage back to the new world from this way is quite long.

Shanks nodded at Beckman, then looked at Maud again.

"gone."

"Bring the wine."

"it is good."

Shanks was not polite.

dozens of minutes later.

The Red Firth of the Red-Haired Pirates slowly departed from the Terror Barque.

Under the watch of Maud and others, the figure of the Red Foss quickly disappeared into the thick fog.

Two days later.

The Red Foss crossed the red earth continent and entered the waters of the New World.

A newspaper delivery gull dropped a morning paper as it flew over the Red Falls.

The huge headline in the newspaper was - Four Emperors, Bacardi.d. Maud!

The newspaper also contained two latest bounty warrants.

One is Shanks' and the other is Maud's.

Shanks glanced at his reward, quite surprised.

At his level, the bounty has basically been finalized, and it is difficult to have room for further growth.

Among the original four emperors, he had the lowest bounty.

Needless to say, Whitebeard, and Charlotte Lingling and Kaido, are 4.388 billion and 4.6111 billion respectively.

Unexpectedly, the bounty amount of 4,048.9 million, which has not changed for many years, will increase by 500 million in one fell swoop due to the advance city incident, and become the current 4,548.9 million.

As a result, Charlotte Lingling's bounty has fallen to the bottom.

Shanks didn't pay too much attention to his own bounty changes, and instead pulled out Maud's latest bounty from the newspaper mezzanine.

4.48 billion.

This is Maude's latest bounty, and it's outrageously high.

In terms of bounty alone, he has indeed stepped into the realm of the Four Emperors.

Shanks stared at Maud's bounty amount with deep eyes.

on the deck.

The crowd cheered loudly, as if it was a festival.

"The boss's bounty has actually risen, and it has risen by 500 million at one time!"

"Haha, 4.5489 million, finally surpassing big.mom!!!"

"I don't know how big.mom will react after seeing his bounty at the bottom, haha."

"However, Maud's bounty has also risen exaggeratedly this time, almost 4.5 billion."

"How much was it?"

"It seems to be around 3 billion."

"what?"

"That is to say... Maud has risen by about 1.5 billion this time?"

"This……"

"It's outrageous!"

Talking about Maud's latest bounty, everyone in the Red-haired Pirates was a little confused.

But what makes them unbelievable the most is the time it took for Mode to rise all the way to 4.48 billion.

Three years, just three years!

You must know that the pirates who are still alive with a bounty of more than 4 billion are Shanks, Charlotte Lingling, and Kaido, the three four emperors.

It took more than 20 years for them to become famous and to have a basically fixed amount of bounty, even the youngest Four Emperor Shanks was no exception.

But Maud is better. It took only about three years to increase the bounty to nearly 4.5 billion, thus breaking Shanks' record and becoming the youngest four emperors.

This kind of thing, if it is not for the facts, I am afraid no one will believe it.

Because it's so outrageous and exaggerated.

"Four emperors... I always feel that it's just a dazzling effort."

"You can't call him little Maud in the future."

"what……"

"I still can't believe it. The little guy who was so tender back then can now be on an equal footing with the boss."

"yes."

The crowd was full of emotion.

Just thinking about how Maud used to be, gave them an unreal feeling.

........

Horror barque.

Through the fax function of the phone bug, Maud got the latest headlines issued by the Morgans newspaper, as well as the latest bounties for himself and Shanks.

Newspaper content is nothing to focus on.

It is simply because the navy issued his latest reward order, so that Morgans and the others used their best efforts to promote him in today's morning newspaper.

The various compliments in the newspapers, which are hardly repeated, are obviously from Dada.

Maud just glanced at the newspaper and the reward order, and felt that it was not nutritious, so he threw it on the table beside him.

Seeing this, Lafayette stretched out his hand, ready to bring the newspaper and the reward.

However, Luo suddenly used the room, and in front of Lafayette, transferred the newspaper and the reward order to his hands.

"..."

Lafayette silently looked at Luo, who had snatched the newspaper and the reward order, and blue veins slowly appeared on his forehead.

Luo, who had recovered well, ignored Lafayette's cannibalistic gaze, and looked down at the contents of the newspaper.

After just a few glances, Luo gasped, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

He couldn't help but glance at Maud who didn't react at all.

Ah shit.

It was such an explosive news, but as the protagonist, Maud was so calm.

If he hadn't seen the contents of the newspaper now, and the latest reward order, the appearance of Maud's just throwing away the newspaper, almost made him think that today's newspaper published some meaningless news.

Perona was the first to float behind Luo. After seeing the latest reward order, her eyes widened and she covered her mouth like a conditioned reflex.

Seeing Luo and Perona's reaction, the others couldn't help but be curious, and they all leaned over to Luo's side and looked at the newspaper.

Maud looked calmly at his companions who were reading the newspaper, shook his head slightly, turned to leave the room, and walked towards the ward.

Maud had barely walked a distance when he heard Cavendish's almost screaming voice coming from the back room.

I could vaguely hear Cavendish's sad shouts, such as "Why didn't my bounty go up? Why didn't I appear in the newspaper? Why did that guy's bounty rise to 4.4 billion all of a sudden".

In addition to Cavendish's shouts, there were other noises, seemingly excited by the increase in his bounty.

In their opinion, the captain of his own family, whose bounty has increased to 4.48 billion, is already a real four emperors.

The Maud Pirates can naturally be called the Four Emperor Pirates by the outside world.

This also means that, as members of the pirate group, they have reached the position that countless pirates dream of.

Compared with the excitement of his companions, Maud is quite calm.

The name of the four emperors is good, and the bounty is increased.

In Maud's view, this is a natural result, and there is no surprise.

Go through the corridor and up the stairs.

After a few minutes.

Maud came to the ward.

crunch--

Pushing open the door, Maud walked into the ward.

On the hospital bed near the window, Jim, who was covered in bandages, was leaning on the head of the bed, reading with a book in his hand.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed, Jim looked towards the door for the first time.

The moment he saw Maud, Jim quickly put down his book and was about to get up.

But Maud's shadow was faster and directly fixed Jim's body.

"Don't move, you need to rest now."

Maud motioned Jim to stop messing around, and he removed the shadow control.

"Boss."

Jim, who took back control of his body, obeyed and did not move, maintaining his posture on the head of the bed.

Maud smiled at Jim, walked over to the bed, squeezed a chair with Shadow, and sat down.

"How do you feel? Does the wound still hurt?"

"pain."

Jim used his fingers as bookmarks, stuck them in the pages of the book, and said dumbly, "But as long as you can survive, it doesn't matter how much it hurts."

"Well, you were injured so badly this time that you almost couldn't be saved."

As Maud spoke, he glanced at the book that Jim was holding down lightly with his hand.

He couldn't see the title, but from the color of the cover and the general composition, he recognized it as a romance novel that Perona occasionally took out to read.

Jim noticed that Maud was looking at the novel, and silently took the novel under the bed.

Maud didn't care about Jim's small movements, and said seriously: "However, after this near-death, your ability should not be far from awakening."

With the reconnaissance ability attached to the hunter's note, Maud noticed Jim's demon star and rushed to 8 and a half stars.

Only half a star away from awakening.

Sure enough, if the animal-type ability person wants to wake up quickly, he can only speed up the speed by being beaten or even dying.

The reason why Kaido, who is known as the strongest creature in the sea, land and air, often kills things, also has this reason.

Jim lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Although there is no obvious feeling, the self-healing speed is indeed faster than before."

"That's why you wake up one day later."

Maud smiled and said, "According to Luo's judgment, normally, you need at least three days to wake up."

Jim heard the words and nodded silently.

The hands shrunk under the quilt were clenched slowly.

"I'm still too weak, not only can't keep up with the boss, but I'll be dragging my feet. If this goes on..."

"Snapped."

Maud put his hand on Jim's shoulder.

With a slightly forceful slap, Jimm's body trembled slightly, causing pain.

"It's okay to be slow, as long as you can keep up."

Maud looked at Jim and said sternly: "I will take you to accomplish what you want to do, and kill those high-level Tianlong people... to kill them all!"

"Boss..."

Jim stared intently at Maud, his face under the bandages moving slightly.

The dull man smiled happily.
