A man stood at the bow of the ship, dressed entirely in black, holding a black scythe in one hand, with a meteor hammer hanging from an iron chain behind him.

Former King of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Tyrannosaurus Rex Hanafuda.

His expression was somewhat gloomy, and the straw hat kept repeating, "I am Ace's brother."

Thinking back to when I was defeated by Ace, a newcomer in the New World, the memory was too painful.

That kid was just unlucky to run into me!

After being defeated by Ace, he originally intended to find Kaido, but on the way he encountered pirates with whom he had a previous feud. He was seriously injured and fell into the sea, and should have died.

Unexpectedly, he was rescued from the sea by a slave ship, lost his memory, and ended up in the East China Sea.

Two years ago, she regained her memories and lay dormant in the East Blue. Hanafuda knew that she had been removed from the Seven Warlords of the Sea and that she would reappear as a pirate.

Whose territory is the East China Sea?

Hanafuda didn't want to run into Garp, so he lay low for two years, plundered many nobles, and built this ship to prepare to return to the New World!

Hanafuda cards have returned from hell.

That little boat, which looked completely unable to withstand the storms of the new world, actually wanted to run away?

And then he saw a pirate ship that looked like it was trying to steal his prey.

"Captain Hanafuda, it seems to be the infamous Demon Pirates!"

A tall man nearby spotted the flag through his binoculars.

Sawyer Belmont, the navigator recruited by Hanafuda, is also a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user with the Throw-Throw Fruit ability; the powerful cannonballs were thrown by him.

"He's a somewhat troublesome newcomer. Should the captain recruit him?"

Belmont knew Hanafuda's identity; he was a former Shichibukai!

For a mere newcomer, that's a piece of cake.

However, what their current pirate crew needs are capable officers, and Hanafuda is also planning to do just that.

"A brat with 230 million Berries? The World Government's bounties these days are really overpriced."

Huazha sneered.

He has a bounty of 30 million Berries for the kid who escaped after a fight with him; the World Government is really going backwards.

"Then let's say hello briefly,"

Hanafuda revealed a cruel smile, "If he can survive, then he can be allowed to become my subordinate."

There is an inherent hierarchy of contempt among pirates.

Pirates who have experienced the New World naturally look down on pirates from places like the Four Seas.

Besides that, I'm a little annoyed by the Devil Pirates' Hanafuda cards.

He originally thought that the news of his comeback in the East China Sea would be big news, but the headlines were all stolen by this so-called devil Russell.

Are veteran pirates really no match for a kid who just set sail?

This is a matter of face!

Tap tap tap.....

As the target beneath his feet emitted a strange, unbearable pressure, Hanafuda's body began to change, revealing a powerful jaw and sharp teeth.

"Coming, coming!"

Belmont watched this scene with some excitement—Captain Hanafuda's super move!

It is said to be a laser cannon modified by a scientist, which even a naval warship cannot withstand. Not long ago, he personally witnessed a huge hole being torn in the middle of a naval warship that came to pursue him.

"Fizz!"

Hanafuda is aimed at the distant ship, its mouth gathering energy.

"Destroy the Death Ray!"

Laser cannons shot out from the Tyrannosaurus Rex's mouth, the white energy beams slamming the seawater to both sides, revealing a vacuum channel.

The Plague Guy's technological prowess is beyond question, and his Devil Fruit, the Zoan-type Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Ancient Zoan, Brachiosaurus form, is also one of his favorites.

"Oh no, what is that?!"

"Danger, too dangerous."

"If we can't dodge it, we can only try to split it open."

The people on the straw hat boat turned pale as they watched this scene; the thing looked very dangerous.

Then Nami saw Russell slowly walk towards the deck and casually pull out Muramasa.

A flash of crimson light, and Zoro's eyes widened. "What a fine sword!"

"Wait, Russell..."

Before Nami could finish speaking, Russell slashed with his sword with great force, the blade flashing with blood.

Whoosh!

The destructive ray was forcefully cleaved in two, and the energy scattered to both sides of the ship.

The massive, blood-red slash continued its relentless momentum, rapidly heading towards the direction of the Hanafuda (flower cards).

"A great swordsman?"

Seeing this, Hanafuda's disdain lessened considerably.

In this vast ocean, the great swordsman is already a symbol of strength.

Seeing the approaching crimson slash, he swung his scythe with all his might, only to find that he had underestimated the opponent's strength. He lost his footing and slashed directly into the cabin.

pat!

Belmont was dumbfounded.

The captain was instead... slashed and sent flying?!

At this moment, the Straw Hat Pirates all had the same expression. Only Nami, who had experienced Russell's recklessness, didn't seem so surprised, but rather felt it was somewhat taken for granted.

But the next second, when Nami saw Russell suddenly stretch out his hand and reach the pirate crew in the distance, she was truly shocked.

It's only because Luffy is still unconscious that he could say something.

Isn't this my move?!

Chapter 74: I'm the one who surrounds you all!

"Ugh... what's that taste?"

"Where's that dinosaur man? Zoro, Nami, Sanji, Usopp... what are you all looking at?"

On the Going Merry, Luffy woke up quickly. The taste in his mouth made him feel hungry but he had no appetite.

When I got up, I realized that my friends were all looking into the distance.

"It flew over?"

Luffy did a somersault and got to the deck. He saw the pirate ship flying into the distance. Just as he was about to swing his arm, he realized that he seemed to be missing some memories.

Where are my usual moves?!

Nami was the first to react, "Usopp, get on the helm! We need to get out of here!"

"Hey, hey, aren't we going to fight anymore?" Luffy asked instinctively.

Even Zoro, after a brief silence, said, "We're not on the same level as that guy... We can't win."

There's a sense of powerlessness, like when facing Hawkeye.

That figure was like an insurmountable mountain!

Nami said angrily, "I paid a heavy price. If I see Russell again, I'm in big trouble. Why don't you cherish this opportunity?"

Meat, meat to pay for it!

Nami was sure she was going to be tortured to no end. Thinking about the loss she would suffer when they met again, Nami blushed and her body went weak.

Compared to the vague resistance before, why is there now a sense of anticipation?

Just then, an even larger ship sailed towards them. Nami looked up and saw Ella's face, and the Serpent Mother...

The memory of being bitten and poisoned instantly flooded my mind.

"Wow, what a huge ship!"

Luffy, looking completely carefree, exclaimed, "So cool!"

"of course."

Grace, who was on the ship, was quite proud when she heard this.

"Straw Hat Kid, next time you run into Buggy, he won't let you off so easily!"

A familiar voice came from the Snard, followed by a red-nosed figure.

"Bucky?!"
