Chapter 1: Face the Wind
"The sky is clear, the sky is cloudless, the clouds are rolling, the clouds are comfortable, and the free East China Sea Lao Tzu is the happiest man!" On the calm sea, a pirate ship sailed slowly, the black and white pirate flag fluttering in the wind, and a man dressed as a ronin sat in the bow of the ship.
This man's face is resolute and handsome, and there is an indescribable chic and calm between his eyebrows, and the outfit on his body is not so much a pirate as a wandering ronin swordsman. It's just the violence that flashes in his eyes from time to time that reveals the reason why he can sit on the bow of this pirate ship.
Just as the man at the bow of the ship was about to introduce himself, a scar-faced strong man suddenly ran out behind him and asked in a loud voice: "Captain Yasuo, we have found a merchant ship ahead, should we rob it?" ”
“…… What's the noise, what's the noise, I'm not deaf, why are you yelling so loudly?! As soon as the man named "Yasuo" spoke, the ronin temperament that had been brewed with great difficulty dissipated into nothingness.
Picking up the unique long knife at his waist, Yasuo stood up and took the binoculars handed by his subordinates, and found that there was indeed a merchant ship sailing in front of the pirate ship without hurry, as if he had not seen the existence of their pirate group at all.
"This ship is really arrogant, it dares to pass in front of my Wind Sword Hero Yasuo so blatantly, and it's a little embarrassing not to rob yourself for such a trip!" Putting down the binoculars, the man who called himself "Wind Sword Hero" laughed very evilly.
This person was originally a young man on the earth who dropped out of school early and entered the society due to poor family background and unsatisfactory grades, and after experiencing job changes, love failures and family conflicts, he crossed into the world of One Piece in an accident, and became his favorite character in his favorite game - Happy Wind...... Swift Sword Hero Yasuo!
Although the world of One Piece is full of dangers, and he has a little panic without systems and abilities, after discovering that he can fight monsters and upgrade like in the game a year ago, he took the sword that came with the crossing and hunted around, from a disliked orphan to a bounty hunter, and then from a bounty hunter to a notorious sea pirate.
Putting aside the mental journey for the time being, now he just wanted to rush into the merchant ship in front of him and plunder, so that more blood could nourish the Wind Blade in his hand.
……
"Captain, something is wrong!" The door to the captain's quarters of the Merchant Ship Toronto was pushed open, and one of the guards rushed in and shouted, "There's a pirate ship approaching us, if I'm not mistaken, it's the Wind Pirates!" ”
"What?!" The elderly Toronto captain sat up in shock when he heard this, and his old face full of wrinkles and beards instantly lost his blood: "Are you sure it's the Wind Pirates?" ”
"Yes, I saw the man!" The guard wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, which he had been frightened out of after meeting the gaze of "that man".
"Damn it!" After confirming that it was correct, the old captain immediately gave an order: "Flee quickly, throw away all the goods, reduce the load, and be sure to escape!! ”
When encountering pirates, especially the famous sea pirates, you must not be greedy for money, this is the common sense that everyone on the sea knows!
"Yes!" The guards who received the order turned their heads and left without saying a word to convey their will, obviously not wanting to give their lives here.
The old captain didn't stay where he was, he took a step and ran to the deck that had become panicked, looking at the pirate ship that was approaching at a fast speed visible to the naked eye, and the sharp blade that pierced the skull on the pirate flag, the last glimmer of hope in his heart was shattered, and despair could not help but spread in his heart.
The Wind Pirates are a newly rising pirate group in the East China Sea, and they have already gained a great reputation, or a fierce name, after only one year of existence.
According to reports, every time the Tempest Pirates plundered merchant ships and passenger ships, they slaughtered all the people on board, leaving no one behind, regardless of men, women, and children.
The Navy has sent troops to encircle and suppress the Tempest Pirates on several occasions, but they have always escaped and continued to commit crimes in the East China Sea.
Among them, their captain "Ghost Sword" Yasuo is even more ferocious, every order to slaughter is given by him, every time the admiral who encircles and suppresses them is dealt with by him, every time the head is harvested by him, the sword in his hand has already drunk countless blood, and in the latest wanted notice, his bounty has reached a terrifying 50 million Bailey!
"It's over, I can't escape." The distance between the two ships was still shrinking, and the old captain knew that it would not take long for the Tempest Pirates to catch up with them and start a bloody slaughter on the Toronto.
It seems that all they are doing now is a useless struggle, and there is no chance of survival unless they risk diving into the sea to cover their discarded cargo and dive to survive!
Leaning weakly on the box and slowly sitting down, the old captain was already in despair. This was the last time he went to sea to do business, and before he went to sea, he had promised his granddaughter to attend her wedding when he returned, and even he was ready to go to Rogue Town to buy some fine wine to add color to his granddaughter's wedding.
Thinking of his granddaughter, who was already pregnant, the old captain regretted that he had not been able to beat the little bastard who had enlarged his granddaughter's belly; Looking at the busy and flustered crew, he felt sorry for these people who had embarked on the death route; Listening to the noise and snoring in his ears, he was ......
Why is there a snoring sound???
There was a slight snoring sound next to "Zzz......", and the old captain wondered who could sleep in such a critical situation.
He looked over and found that the person who was sleeping soundly was a green-haired boy he met before the Toronto departed, he claimed to be a swordsman, although it looked like that, but the swordsman with three knives, was it a three-knife stream?
Shaking his head with a wry smile, this young man with great ambitions probably hasn't seen the whole picture of the sea yet, but it's a pity that he is going to die at sea with them now.
"Hey, boy, wake up." Stretching out his hand to wake up the green-haired boy, the old captain reminded in the other party's hazy eyes: "There are pirates coming, hurry up and run for your life." ”
"Huh, pirates?" Tilting his head, the green-haired boy who had been disturbed from his sleep looked a little confused and angry, but he still nodded politely to the old captain: "Thank you for the reminder, old man." ”
With that, he wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, stood up very naturally, and walked towards the bow of the ship as he stretched.
But before he could take a step, he was stopped by someone, and he saw the old captain looking at the green-haired boy with a panicked face and said, "Wait, what do you kid want to do, why don't you hurry up and run for your life?" ”
This guy's expression on his face was so natural that the old captain almost mistook the green-haired boy for a "professional" who specialized in dealing with pirates.
The green-haired boy hesitated for a moment, but still didn't let go of the old captain's hand, he patted the three knives he was carrying at his waist, and showed a confident smile: "Don't worry, old man, I'm very strong!" ”
"No, what kind of hero are you kid, hurry up and hide." However, the old captain refused to let go of anything, and grabbed the young man's hand and wanted to drag him back to the cabin to hide, but he was too old and weak to drag the tall and sturdy young man in front of him.
And just as the two were pulling, the Wind Pirates had already approached, and the pirates on the pirate ship were staring at the merchant ship with excitement and fanaticism, and the murderous aura in their eyes appeared, as if they couldn't resist the sword in their hands and wanted to rush to the merchant ship to slaughter it.
"Bang!" With a loud bang, the pirate ship crashed into the merchant ship, and the desperate crew and guards took up arms and prepared to organize a counterattack, while the pirates jumped onto the merchant ship and prepared to start the slaughter, and the broadside battle was about to break out!
However, at the moment when the battle between the two sides officially broke out......
"Face the wind!"
With a roar of rage, a person suddenly jumped out of the pirate ship, pulled out his blade and slashed two people in a row at the moment of landing, and then swung forward, a whirlwind condensed by sword qi took shape in an instant and rushed into the guard of the merchant ship in an instant, blowing everyone in the wind and causing great casualties!
"Hazah!"
