When the Giant Warrior was strong, the gas did not work, and when he was now weak, the gas attacked, paralyzing his hands and feet.

David Jones stretched out his right hand, and the scepter that pierced through the Giant's knee flew out of his body and flew back into his hand.

He walked over to the head of the Giant Warrior, leaped forward, wrapped his right foot in armor, and slammed into the Giant Warrior's helmet.

The sound of explosions shook the ruins of the palace, and the helmet and crown shattered, revealing the giant's face.

At this time, he was no longer an invincible warrior, and his eyes revealed a plea for everyone.

David Jones turned a blind eye to this, and said in a cold tone: "One by one, you are also pirates who have killed giants." ”

He moved out of the way, and the crew gathered around, shadowing the giant's head.

It was a brutal skull-splitting, but it also shattered the last cowardice in the crew's hearts towards this group of spire monsters.

The Giant Warriors died, leaving them with two loot.

The first is a red key, one of the three keys.

The second, a golden belt with the number "1" engraved on it.

This belt appears in the Pokédex and seems to be able to strengthen people and weaken enemies, and Arlita can't get enough of it, which is in keeping with her strange powers.

However, when she got the loot, she was still going to give it to Captain David Jones first and let him distribute it.

"Wait." Chloe stopped her, "Don't go over and disturb the captain just yet. ”

Arlita stood in confusion, only to notice Captain David Jones standing silently not far away.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but the captain's current momentum is as violent as a monstrous wave, and in an instant, it is as calm as the skyline.

"I've always had a guess about the captain." Chloe explained to the rest of the crew, "The captain seems to be able to draw fear and use it as a strength." ”

Absorb fear?!

"Come to think of it, the captain can get a certain promotion after every conflict, which is not in line with common sense......"

"But if you look at all the conflicts together, you can see one thing in common, and that is that everyone is afraid of Captain David Jones."

"The spire monsters along the way, including the monster that was stunned by the captain's overlord color, and the fallen giant warrior, were no exception. The captain is sucking the fear they generate for his own use. ”

Chloe lifted his round-rimmed glasses, which glowed in the light, making it impossible for everyone to see his eyes.

"Because he is the 'King of the Deep Sea', this is an indisputable fact."

The crew swallowed a mouthful of saliva in unison, this sentence pressed on everyone's hearts for a long time, but no one dared to mention it, but today Chloe said it.

David Jones is really the "Hades of the Deep"!

"I think the captain is recovering his lost 'demigod' power because of some kind of change."

"That's what we're following. If everyone has only one fleeting chance in their life to become a sea pirate in the world's attention, I'm sure, now. ”

The crew was silent and thoughtful, some were still hesitating, but some had already made up their minds.

It was also at this time that David Jones seemed to wake up from a deep sleep, exhaled a long breath, and then turned around, staring at everyone with gray and blue eyes.

"Captain." Arrita stepped forward quickly, handing over the red key and belt.

David Jones only accepted the red key: "You can keep the belt." ”

Arlita smiled and whispered, "Yes, Captain." ”

She got what she wanted, and it also confirmed her thoughts.

David Jones put the red and green keys together and looked up.

"I have made contracts and deals with each and every one of you. Now, I'm willing to give you a chance to either stay the same or sign a new contract with me. ”

Or stay the same?

Or re-contract?

The crew looked at each other, but two of them were the quickest to react.

"I'm willing to re-contract." Yarrita said.

"I will continue to follow you and renew the contract." Chloe lifted her glasses.

Their quick statement made the scene fall into a strange stalemate.

As if he couldn't see the embarrassment and hesitation on the faces of the others, David Jones only smiled at Arrita and Chloe:

"Then swear to me that for the next 100 years to exist as a crew member of David Jones."

100 years?

How many of us have a lifespan of 100 years?

How is this kind of thing possible?

After a person dies, can he continue to be a crew member?

After a person dies?

Continue to be a crew member?

Arrita and Chloe glanced at each other, and they both saw an inexplicable, inexplicable fear in each other's eyes.

It's just that this fear is soon overshadowed by the pursuit of higher places.

"I swear to Captain David Jones."

Arrita and Chloe said in unison.

"I would like to be part of the crew of Captain David Jones for the next 100 years."

As soon as the words of the oath fell, the two of them felt that there seemed to be something more in their bodies, which they could not describe in exact words.

"Oath is a shackle and a source of strength." That's when David Jones explained.

"You and the Terror Ghost will be entangled like a python, you will feed on fear, and every time you borrow strength from the Terror Ghost, you will be able to improve your physique, and you will also be able to heal and regenerate broken limbs ......"

"Don't forget, though, that the more you borrow, the closer you become to the Dreadful Ghost, and eventually even become one with it."

David Jones stroked the wriggling tentacles on his face.

"You're going to be just like me, not a fish-man, but a monster."

He laughed and turned away, not giving the rest of the crew time to react.

Since they chose to remain silent, it would be better to maintain the status quo.

Arrita looked at her body in amazement, but she didn't notice anything different from her usual life.

She looked up, and Chloe was observing herself, but he was much calmer.

"Where there is gain, there is a price."

Chloe smiled, the first time anyone had seen him smile since he boarded the ship.

The crew didn't dare to let David Jones wait outside for too long, so they all left the place and followed.

As they walked up the steep slopes of the ruined city, they had already seen the entrance to the third floor, but before they could explore further, they heard a loud noise in the distance.

"Captain."

Bucky took a telescope from his bosom and handed it to David Jones, but he kept his head down, not daring to look at the captain, and the silence in front of the choice made him feel a little weak.

David Jones didn't care, and clicked the telescope out, looking through the lens condescendingly.

He saw that there was a group of people, surrounded by monsters on the second floor.

Among them, there is also his familiar face - Klockdahl.

-----------------

"It's not supposed to be here." Xia Qi complained, he and Pekin and the white bear Beibo were back to back, a group of three, and their bodies were scarred, "Luo, let's go back." ”

The strange birds in the air, the strange snakes crawling on the ground, the snake flowers that devoured people, and those weird negative states all exhausted them.

Law was silent.

He could not have imagined that after a brief partnership deal with Klockdahl, one of the "Seven Martial Seas", he would be encircled here.

The combat power and number of first-layer monsters gave him an illusion.

Not to mention that the elite of the first tier has been dealt with by David Jones and his gang and Klockdahl.

The leader of the first layer also died at the hands of David Jones and his gang.

They made it to the second floor fairly smoothly.

The purpose of the "Heart Pirates" is also very simple, purely from other places to know the sporadic news about the deep sea spire, and they happen to have a submarine that can be sunk, so they came to obtain the treasure on the top of the spire - the heart.

Luo has a grudge against Doflamingo, one of the "Seven Martial Seas", but the difference in strength between the two is too obvious to be erased in a short period of time.

He thought about it, and wanted to use that heart to improve his strength by leaps and bounds.

But soon after entering the city, they were surrounded by this surging group of monsters.

What's even stranger is that the monsters attack them like crazy, as if they have just been stimulated by something.

“ROOM！”

Wearing a bowler, Luo created a space in his place, and the monsters in the space were cut off by his long knife, and all of them were reduced to pieces of flesh.

With the wave of his fingertips, the monsters did not die, but they were randomly put together, causing great chaos.

This is his ability to "superhumanize the fruit of surgery".
