Chapter 44

The first wave of battles on the coast of Drum Island is about to begin

"It's really Valpo. He doesn't want to be a king but runs out to become a pirate. He really brings shame to the allied countries."

Ikarem looked at the king who was laughing wantonly on the Iron King. He didn't feel sorry for Valpo. He was more worried about the future of the Kingdom of Alabasta.

The screen did not reveal the future of the Kingdom of Alabasta. Whether the king won or the rebels won made this minister loyal to the king want to know the answer very much. If he knew that something would happen in the future, he could make up for it. He didn't want to be a slave of a conquered country.

"What an arrogant guy, he almost overturned the Golden Merry."

Luffy didn't know Valpo, but he hated this fat man when he first met him. Now he really wanted to jump on his ship and beat him up.

Watching the barrel of the Iron King move towards the Golden Merry, Zoro clenched the famous sword in his hand, alert to the arrival of danger, "The other party is coming with bad intentions, so we still have to fight."

Valpo looked at the other boat, then glanced at the huge hull of the Iron King, full of disdain for the Straw Hat Pirates. A group of little devils who had just entered the Grand Line were confident that they would be completely eliminated on Drum Island.

"Chopper's reindeer monster will have no future. Are you going to be buried with him today? Fire and kill him."

At the order of His Majesty the King, the gunners on the pirate ship quickly loaded shells and aimed the muzzles at the direction of the Golden Merry. Under the guidance of Lord Jess, more than a dozen iron cannons were ready to go.

Boom boom boom boom!

The shrapnel fired by the Iron King not only targeted the Straw Hat Pirates, but also the citizens on the shore. Explosions sounded on the coast of the Drum Kingdom, raising waves of water columns.

"What a cruel king, the One-Sword Style Lion Song"

Zoro stood on the deck and slashed with a sword, easily shattering the flying shells. He wanted to protect the Golden Merry from harm.

The sudden bombardment of Valpo caught the citizens on the coast off guard, and the shrapnel exploded in the crowd, causing many casualties in an instant.

Those who were killed on the spot were lucky, and the citizens who survived by chance were full of fragments. They were flesh and blood without the ability of devil fruit, and they could only lie on the ground and wail after being bombed by artillery.

Dalton used the ability of the animal devil fruit to transform into a human-shaped black bull, so that the citizens around him fell under him and used his body to withstand a shrapnel bomb.

The huge power of the shell almost broke the lumbar vertebrae of the former captain of the guard. The black bull spit out a few mouthfuls of blood and looked at the culprit who caused all this with a pair of hateful eyes, "Valpo, you are not worthy of being a king. You can't even protect the citizens. You really deserve to die for doing things that hurt the citizens."

"Hey, isn't this our captain of the guard team? He turned into a cow and is still quite resistant to bombs. Aim the gun barrel at him and shoot again."

Cromarimon commanded his men to move the gun barrels and aimed several cannons at his former colleagues. He couldn't stand such people who were concerned about the country and the people. If the people died, they died. Let them have more children.

Boom boom boom!

A new round of bombardment continued

"Rubber Balloon"

At some point, Luffy had already run to the shore. He instantly inhaled a huge amount of air, making the entire rubber man's body round and bigger, to resist the flying shells for the innocent people on the shore.

The shrapnel bomb hit the rubber man, but it did not explode immediately but was bounced back by the opponent. The shells returned to their original owners, allowing the people of the White Iron King to also feel the taste of being bombarded.

Luffy can't use the third gear yet, and his attack power on ships is limited. He can't destroy the White Iron King instantly, and can only engage in boarding battle. At this moment, he can only watch the enemy gunners load new shells, and King Valpo's next round of bombardment is about to begin.

"Let me do it, Zoro, help me"

Swordsman Zoro has to protect the ship and can't engage in boarding battle with the enemy ship. He immediately understands what Eren Yeager means, stands next to the thin young man, and is ready to send him off.

"Swordless Tornado"

A rising air current rises from the Golden Merry, and a young man in black is blown out of the pirate ship. This weird behavior makes everyone on the White Iron King laugh.

What can such a thin man do? Even if he is a devil fruit ability user, there is an ocean below him. Falling into the sea and unable to exert any ability is simply sending him to death.

"What are you doing..."

Before Valpo could finish, a golden lightning appeared in front of him. In the lightning, a huge body quickly took shape. Flesh, bones, and nerves were assembled at a speed visible to the naked eye. A 20-meter-tall giant appeared in front of everyone.

"What...what is this?"

An ordinary young man suddenly turned into a gianttribe, Valpo was so frightened that his mouth was trembling, and the other party was not afraid of the sea water. He stood in the sea with his legs and walked towards the direction of the White Iron King.

"Shoot him quickly, don't be afraid of blowing him up"

Jace kicked the stunned gunner, came back to his senses and aimed the muzzle at the giant. Dozens of shrapnel were fired at the same time, exploding on the body of the pointed giant.

"Did it succeed?"

The huge figure in the smoke was still walking, revealing the appearance of the Attack Titan. The shrapnel caused limited damage to it. It was emitting hot steam and was recovering the injured parts at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Becoming a giant can actually heal its own body. What kind of devil fruit is this?"

Amid the exclamations of the crowd, the giant wrapped in a hardened fist smashed towards the White Iron King.

"Don't underestimate me, King"

Valpo opened his super big mouth to the limit. He wanted to use the power of the Swallow Swallow Fruit to swallow the giant's fist. He didn't believe that the other party could recover after losing his fist.

The fist that Allen swung was swallowed by the opponent, and Valpo swallowed it all the way up along the arm. His terrifying devil fruit ability gave him an amazing stomach. If he was given enough time, he could swallow a whole giant.

"It's a pity that this fruit is on you."

Even the ability of the Warhammer Titan to harden can be eliminated by the Swallow Swallow Fruit and swallowed into the mouth. This devil fruit on the sea is really magical.

A stream of sea water rose up beside the giant, and instantly condensed into a white long knife. The ability of the Warhammer Titan can even harden the sea water, and refine the substances in the sea water into weapons in his hands, which saves more energy than creating things out of thin air.

In Valpo's horrified eyes, he saw the attacking giant waving the long knife, cutting off the arm with one knife, and even he, the arm-eating ability user, fell down with the broken arm.

The Attack Titan's left arm was cut off by his own hands, and a huge amount of steam erupted from the broken part. In less than a few seconds, flesh, bones, and nerves appeared out of thin air and repaired the injury non-stop, and a new left arm grew out.

"It's over"

A more than ten-meter-long white sword swung down from the air, and the Iron King Valpo's ship was cut off with a desperate wail, and the hull was split into two sections from the middle, sinking into the sea with the crew on it.
