I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King.

Chapter 541 A fateful encounter

A corridor somewhere in the castle tower.

"Kill!"

The 'Givers' who ate the artificial devil fruit and whose body parts turned into animals, or whose bodies were replaced by animals and whose bodies became accessories, and the 'Laughing People' who failed to eat the fruit and whose happiness factor reduced them to laughter rushed towards one of them.

The sword flashed, as if it could twist, and it shot out as flexibly as a snake, turning a corner and piercing into the bodies of these people, protruding from the back of the last person, revealing a piece of straw tip.

Puff puff!
The straw swung sideways, leaving a big gash in their bodies, and then it was retracted and turned into a sharp blade, which was once again held in the hands of the wavy blond man in the middle of the corridor.

"The mortality rate is approaching 100%."

Hawkins used his free hand to stick a tarot card on the tip of straw sticking out of his body, glanced at the person lying on the ground, shook his head, and continued to move forward.

The battle here has already begun.

Samurai and pirates were fighting everywhere, samurai were fighting each other, and pirates were fighting each other, it was a mess.

"Um"

He put another tarot card on the table and raised his brows. "The survival rate is less than 1%. It's not me, it's the other pirates who broke in here. My survival rate is still 3%."

"Is it destiny?"

He swung his sword again and chopped down a group of pirates from the Beasts Pirates who were rushing towards him.

Among these pirates, two are very interesting. One has the upper body of an ape growing out of his left arm, and the other has both his hands and back merged into a pink baboon without legs.

"Is this the power of an artificial devil fruit? Caesar has made quite a few achievements in his research, but it's a pity that the effect is still not as good as the original one. Well, not everyone is suitable for increasing their willpower and practicing domineering power." Hawkins said lightly.

Of course they knew about Caesar's achievements, but Sager was very disdainful of such things.

For ordinary people on the sea, even if they can awaken their domineering aura, that tiny amount is totally insufficient. Not everyone can skillfully control their own will.

Although it is something that everyone has, the theory of will, Sag once said, is a hymn to mankind.

They are all hymns, and of course not so many people can master them skillfully.

Their Calamity Pirates have a population of more than 3.6 million, but only tens of thousands of them can match the recruits of the Marine Headquarters. And there are only more than 30,000 who can muster the courage to fight against the battle-hardened Marines on the sea.

These people have more or less awakened their wills, and some of them have mastered their domineering power and are able to deliver powerful blows.

But there are less than a hundred people who are both competent and proficient, and only about ten can be considered good.

Including the demon clan, their strength and domineering aura are not considered strong. What is strong is only their physical fitness and trained physical skills.

As for the 1,700 selected elites?

That is to say, it is better than what others have.

But in the ocean, they can all be considered elites.

How can there be so many people who are proficient in domineering?
Devil fruits are also very rare. On the contrary, these people who have eaten artificial devil fruits are neither human nor ghost, but their combat power is quite strong. If they are placed in the Calamity Pirates, they can also become team leaders.

But unfortunately, they met Hawkins and
"Ok?"

He took out another tarot card, paused slightly, and looked towards the side corridor.

brush!
The sword blade turned into straw and twisted on the wall of the corridor, thus breaking the corridor into pieces and revealing a relatively spacious space.

There, a group of people were fighting, gift givers and gift givers were fighting each other for some unknown reason, and pirates and samurai were also fighting.

Three of them were particularly outstanding.

"burst!"

A member of the Long-Armed Tribe hammered his chest hard, and the bodies of most people exploded as if they were hit by a cannonball.

In the smoke, a guy with an 'X' shaped scar on his chin and an 'X' mark on his chest, wielding a rapier and an axe, burst out from the smoke and slashed fiercely at the long-armed man.

At the same time, a strong man wearing a mask with only the golden hair on the back of his head visible, holding two rotating sickles, also rushed out and attacked the long-armed tribe.

"Sonic boom impact!"

The long-armed tribe stretched out their two jointed hands, and holes like flutes appeared on their arms. As strange music played, a shock wave attacked the two people, and they also quickly retreated under the impact. The man with the 'X' symbol crossed his weapons, covered with domineering aura to block the impact, and turned his body to the side to block the sickle of the masked man who turned around to attack them because his attack missed.

when!
The weapons collided briefly, and because of the impact, the bodies of the two flew backwards, forming a triangle of three people facing each other.

At this moment, the three of them saw the broken corridor in the distance and looked over together.

The expressions of the three people were different when they saw Hawkins.

The Long-Handed Tribe looked shocked.

The man with the 'X' sign frowned.

As for the masked man, I can't see clearly.

"'Sea Ming' Skulachiman Apu, 'Red Flag' Drake, 'Slaughter Warrior' Kira, they are all from the same period. It's been a long time since we last met."

Hawkins walked over, took out two more tarot cards and stuck them on the tip of the straw, and looked at Kira and Drake with emphasis, "Oh my destiny, is it destined for you two?"

"Hawkins?!"

Apu was surprised: "Why are you here!"

"Subordinates of Natural Disaster"

Drake said in a deep voice: "Is the natural disaster coming too?!"

"Hahahahaha!"

Kira laughed meaninglessly behind his mask.

"Captain? You are currently attacking Kaido."

After Hawkins answered, he looked at them again and said, "Drake, one of the Flying Six. Kira, Kidd's men, if you are fighting, it means Kidd is here too, but now it's clearly a melee."

"I read the newspapers before. You and Kidd have formed an alliance, just like the alliance between the Straw Hats and Law. But if there is a melee, it means the situation is different. Internal strife? Hmm."

He sheathed his sword, took out the tarot cards again, shuffled them, and put a few more cards back on.

"Ten of Swords, Justice."

He looked at the two tarot cards facing Drake and said slowly, "Betrayal, and balance. So that's it. You are an undercover agent of the navy."

Then, he turned to Ap, "You are also the Ten of Swords, and a demon. You also represent betrayal, but you also have the power to lure others to hell. It seems that the alliance is fake, and you are Kaido's subordinate."

"As for you"

Hawkins looked at Kira and frowned slightly. "Four cards, Ten of Wands, Tower, Death, and Demon. It means that you will have a hard time, carrying something, and being bound by difficulties. But the [Demon] here is illusory, and you may be able to break free from this bondage. The direction of fate..."

He looked at the four Death Tarot cards on the tip of the straw, which were also closest to him and were about to fall on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Is it with me?"

There was no need to ask. With his understanding of the intelligence, grasp of the current situation, and tarot card divination, Hawkins quickly grasped the situation.

He is a senior official and one of the three think tanks of the Calamity Pirates, and he doesn't hold that position for nothing.

The result of divination was also unexpected.

His 3% chance of survival should be on Drake and Kira, especially Kira.
The straw tip gathered, Hawkins put away the tarot cards again, drew the long sword from his waist, and said:

"Forget it, whether it's two or three, more or less, this is a fateful encounter. Apu, Captain Sarge said that whether we win or lose, we will enter the other side's camp, but for the sake of future stability, let's fight."

As he said this, he looked at the other two, "So, Drake, Kira, are you going to surrender, or fight?"

The first half of the new world is about to be unified, and it is a time when we are short of people, so we should recruit as many people as possible.

What? Undercover Navy?

They are not afraid of undercover agents here, they have already been turned into sieves.

As long as you can do the job.
