One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 314 John is captured (more)
Sergio Islands in the East Sea:
The New World is in chaos, and many large pirate groups are eyeing the territory left by World.

But John was the only one who didn't care about it. He looked beyond the New World and saw the global situation.

"Yohahahaha, the headquarters of the World Government and the Celestial Dragons were blown to pieces by Wald. Now the whole world is in chaos. The energy of the World Government and the Navy has been completely dispersed. It's a good time to rob the treasure."

"In the past, we could only plunder at the edge of the doldrums, but now is a good opportunity to plunder!"

"It's a pity that those short-sighted guys only focus on the small piece of land in the New World and give up the vast seas and numerous treasures in the Four Seas!"

John and the big pirate groups in the New World go the other way.

John was not interested in territory or anything like that. Even if they seized the territory left by Wald, they didn't know how to run it. How much treasure could they get every year just by collecting protection fees?
It would be better to go to the four seas and rob once and get more, so John took advantage of the fact that the World Government was busy and the New World Pirate Group was focusing on fighting for territory, and secretly led his pirate group to the weakest East China Sea to plunder.

Although the East China Sea is known as the weakest sea area, the weakest here refers to the fact that the average combat power of the pirates is the weakest.

The weak power of pirates means that the major kingdoms are less likely to be attacked by pirates, which also means that the business here is prosperous, the kingdom is wealthy, and the per capita wealth is high.

So John set his sights on the East China Sea.

"Captain John, we are almost at our destination!"

Edison Quintana said excitedly.

This time John chose the Sergio Island, which is close to the doldrums in the East China Sea but very wealthy, as his first target.

"Yohahahaha, guys, get everything ready for me. After we get ashore, immediately grab all the treasures on the island for me!"

John looked at the island so close at hand and shouted excitedly as if he had smelled the scent of treasure.

"Oh, I want the treasure!!"

"The treasures are all mine, no one can snatch them from me!"

"Long live the captain! If we follow the captain, we will definitely get a lot of treasure!"

"."

After hearing John's words, the pirates on each ship were extremely excited. Didn't they follow John just for the treasure?
But among these cheering pirates, there were many old pirates, that is, pirates who had been on John's ship for many years, and there was a hint of barely perceptible anger in their eyes.

Especially Edison Quintana and Gastro Tucker, who were regarded as John's right-hand men, were extremely obsessed with treasure.

But not only did John not share the treasure with them, he also took away part of the treasure they had obtained.

They said that they were helping them keep the treasures, but this made them more and more dissatisfied and angry with John. If they were not strong enough, they would want to kill John and take all of their treasures and John's treasures!

John naturally didn't know what his subordinates were thinking, or even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

What he cares about most is the treasure. He doesn't care whether his subordinates will betray him because he is confident that he can control them. As long as he is still there, these subordinates will not dare to rebel. This approach is almost exactly the same as Rocks's in the past.

"Run, run, the pirates are coming!"

"Damn it, how could John, the great pirate from the New World, appear here!?"

"Oh, mother, I'm scared!"

"."

As many pirates from John's pirate group rushed out of this prosperous island, screams were suddenly heard all over the island, and everyone began to flee in panic.

But most of these people couldn't escape at all. In front of the many pirates of John's Pirate Group, these people were too weak. With the port under control, these people couldn't leave the island at all!

"John, go to hell!"

Shortly after John arrived on the island, Garp, who was hiding on the island, rushed over like a madman. Black lightning bloomed wildly on his body, and his domineering aura spread out, knocking out most of the pirates in John's pirate group.

"Karp, why are you here?!"

John was surprised when he saw Cap appear, but after the surprise came fear.

Since Garp appeared here, it meant that the Navy and the World Government had knowledge of his whereabouts, and his whereabouts were now exposed!
This is the Four Seas. Once your whereabouts are exposed, you can imagine how dangerous it would be!

"run!"

John didn't dare to stay here any longer. He immediately transformed into a demon, spread his wings and flew towards his pirate ship.

As John, who has eaten the Human-Human Fruit, the Mythical Beast, and the Demon Form, he has the ability to fly, and his speed is not slow.

However, just as John took off, a huge golden Buddha fell from the sky.

"Great Buddha Palm!"

This huge golden palm was filled with a terrifying white impact force, combined with its own domineering aura, and slammed down. The sudden attack by Zhan Guo gave John no time to react. His body instinctively tried to dodge Zhan Guo's palm, but his back was hit by Zhan Guo's long-planned full-strength palm.

"Crack!!"

The powerful Buddha's palm broke John's demon wings in an instant, and John fell rapidly from the sky like an airplane with broken wings.

"Hahahahaha, John, today is the day you die!"

When Garp saw John falling like a meteorite, he laughed loudly. The armament color and domineering color on his fist combined, emitting a dazzling light like a red star.

"Bone Fist Meteor!"

Cap's figure immediately disappeared from the spot and appeared right below where John fell. His whole body was like a meteor rising from the ground, and he punched towards John.

John was hit by a palm from Zhan Guo and vomited blood. His internal organs were damaged. Seeing Garp rushing towards him again, he subconsciously used the devil's fire to set up a flame barrier to block in front of him, and his hands were also covered with armed color domineering to block in front of him.

"Crack!!!"

However, facing Garp's fist, John's demon fire was completely useless and was extinguished by Garp's punch. Even John himself was hit on the chest by Garp through his arms.

The whole person went from the falling state just now to soaring into the sky with great force.

"Great Buddha Palm!!"

Zhan Guo had been staying in the air from the beginning to prevent John from escaping. When he saw John flying up again, he raised his hand and the Buddha's palm, which combined the double-colored domineering power and impact force, slammed towards John again.

With the combined efforts of Garp and Sengoku, John was hit back and forth like a ball and had no power to fight back.

If he didn't possess the tenacious vitality of the mythical beast species, he would have been defeated by Garp and Sengoku long ago, and there was no way he would have been able to hold on for long.

"The strongest marine Garp and the Navy Admiral Sengoku are here, let's run!"

"Isn't that the captain dead? Can we take the captain's treasure?"

When Edison Quintana and Gastro Tucker saw John being surrounded by Garp and Sengoku, they immediately shouted and took away many crew members of John's pirate group and escaped.

The two of them were the most prestigious and powerful men under John, and once they called on them, most of the pirates followed them.

"John, you are finally going to die, and all your treasures will be mine!"

When Edison Quintana was running away, he looked back at the direction where John and Cap were fighting, and a sinister smile of success appeared on his face.

Ever since John robbed him of his treasure, he had been waiting for this day for who knows how long!!!
Now, he finally got what he was waiting for!
"Damn it! Who leaked my whereabouts? And none of those damn bastards came to save me!"

John was extremely angry now. He had not told other pirates about his whereabouts at all, so it could be that someone on his ship betrayed him.

In addition, neither of the two cadres whom he regarded as his right-hand men came to rescue him. He already knew that his subordinates had betrayed him!
"Hahahahaha, pirates are pirates. Rocks was betrayed by his own subordinates and eventually died under my fist!"

"Now you, John, have also been betrayed by your own subordinates, and you will still die under my fist!"

Cap laughed wildly and swung his fist at John.

Although Zhan Guo did not speak, the power in his hands continued to grow.

The World Government had previously suffered heavy losses at the hands of Wald, Li Yuan, and Golden Lion, but the World Government was not sure if it could take action against Li Yuan and Golden Lion.

So they set their sights on other big pirates in the New World, so John became the unlucky guy, or the easiest guy to deal with.

But the World Government now has no extra personnel available, so it asked Sengoku and Garp to ambush John and make sure to keep John.

"I'm not willing to accept this!!!"

John wanted to escape desperately, but at the beginning his demon wings were broken by a sneak attack from Sengoku. Later, Sengoku and Garp focused on taking care of John's wings. Now John has lost his ability to fly and cannot escape the encirclement of Garp and Sengoku.

In the end, he was knocked unconscious by a punch from Garp and lay on the ground.

"Since he is not dead, let's put him in the Deep Sea Prison."

Seeing that Garp wanted to punch him again, Sengoku stopped him.

John's Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Beast Type, Devil Form is a very rare devil fruit. He doesn't want this devil fruit to be reborn again on the sea and then fall into the hands of pirates.

"Well, take him back."

Cap took out seastone handcuffs from somewhere and put them on John.
