Angel investor in the One Piece world

Damian raised his hands, his ten fingers moving rhythmically as if playing the piano.

Like giant waves, the rocks and soil surged up and slowly returned to their original positions under his precise control. Although there would certainly be some changes compared to the original, it would not affect daily life.

aside.

Ah Jian's brows were furrowed with anxiety; he wanted to say something more.

But Nami, who had already wiped away her tears, raised her hand to stop him. "Don't say anymore, Ken. I won't change my mind."

Ah Jian opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

He knew that Nami was stronger than anyone else, and that she would never change her mind once she made up her mind.

Just like five years ago.

Back then, Nami decided to join Arlong's pirate crew, but this time, she's decided to go on an adventure.

This child sacrificed himself for everyone once again.

Ah Jian's face was full of shame, and his eyes were glistening with tears.

"Nami!"

A voice, trembling with sobs, rang out.

Nami had barely turned her head when her sister had already embraced her.

Nami felt the warmth on her neck, and the girl's expression softened. She gently patted Nojiko's back.

Nami understood even though her sister didn't say anything.

She gently comforted him, "Have you forgotten, Nojiko? My dream is to draw a map of the entire world! I'll go to the Grand Line sooner or later!"

Even as she said this, Nami's eyes involuntarily reddened.

Because the Grand Line was also her goal, she was even more aware of how terrifying that sea was.

Will I ever be able to come back?

Damian had already restored everything to its original state. Turning around, she saw the two sisters embracing each other, along with Ah Jian silently shedding tears beside them. Together, it was a perfect melodrama.

Damian couldn't help but chuckle. "Are you sure you're not mistaken? The reason we hired Miss Nami as our navigator is to ensure the safety of our voyage."

"But since you're so worried, then let me show you what kind of strength your future comrades will have."

"Huh?"

Nami turned her head in surprise.

then.

"Puppet manipulation!"

The puppet strings spread out.

The next instant, the two sisters, Ah Jian, and Damian were all launched into the sky.

The reason for bringing Nojiko and Ken is that Nojiko has a blue aura above his head, and Ken is green.

Even with Nami, every little bit helps.

"Wow!"

The rapid ascent caused Nami, who was already timid, to scream out loud.

Ignoring Nami's screams, Damian immediately confirmed the location of Arlong's territory.

That building was very distinctive, unlike any other building on the island, and could be seen from the sky.

With their location confirmed, Damian led the group, whipping into the wind, and shot off in the next instant.

Nami immediately screamed even louder.

This made Nokiko, who was already feeling down, feel somewhat embarrassed.

"Guina,"

Damian acted as if he hadn't heard him. "Now you can demonstrate it and put your future navigator at ease."

"The strongest pirate in the East Blue?"

Kuina's lips gradually curled upwards. "It's worth cutting."

Alon's Domain.

"Hahaha!"

Ah Long was laughing wildly.

On the table in front of him was a pile of pewter, which looked like a small mountain.

The Arlong Pirates conquered more than just Cocoyasi Village; the fish-men who went to collect money from other villages have all returned, and these Berries are their reward.

The long-beaked fish-man, Chu, reached out and grabbed a handful of Berries, laughing triumphantly, "Luckily, I didn't just rob someone and run!"

"I've said it before: humans are a lowly race!"

Ah Long's arrogant laughter echoed, "They were born to be ruled by us, to be slaves who create wealth for us!"

Laughter echoed around the wide pool, where all the fish-men were laughing together.

Until a strange voice rang out.

"Excuse me, could you answer a question for me?"

A calm, indifferent, yet undeniably authoritative voice came from the sky: "Have all the fishmen returned?"

"Who?"

Ah Long stood up from his chair in an instant, his fierce vertical pupils shrinking into thin slits.

"Ah Long! From above!!"

The octopus-man Hachi looked up at the sky in surprise, "It's Nami!"

Nami?

Ah Long suddenly looked up and saw a group of people floating in the sky, Nami being one of them!

"A person with special abilities?"

As a fish-man from the Grand Line, Arlong instantly realized what the scene before him represented.

His expression instantly turned even more ferocious as he stared intently at Nami. "Nami, explain to me what this means?"

Nami, who had just adjusted to being in the air, instinctively shuddered when she heard Arlong's voice.

But she immediately realized that the offensive and defensive strategies had shifted!

"Ah Long!"

Years of pent-up resentment distorted the girl's voice. "It all ends today! Your end is here!"

"Lao Tzu's doomsday?"

Alon paused, then said, "Hahaha! These few random guys? They think they can defeat the noble merfolk just because they found a power user?"

He even felt a pang of pity for her.

Are lowly humans not only physically weak, but also mentally dull?

The greatest fear of those with superpowers is the ocean, and fish-men are the overlords of the ocean!

"Come here, Nami!"

Ah Long grinned, his sharp teeth seemingly radiating a chilling aura. "Kneel before me now, and I might spare you this time!"

"Go to hell, Ah Long!!"

His only response was the girl's desperate scream, "All the fishmen are here! Mr. Damian! Please make your move!"

"Despicable humans!"

Alon sneered, "You missed the great merman's last act of mercy!"

"Lowly humans? Great fish-men?"

Damian chuckled. "How interesting. This is the first time I've heard of such a claim."

"However, I remember that at the auction house in Sabaody Archipelago, a fish-man slave costs one million Berries, while an ordinary human only costs five hundred thousand. From this point of view, you are indeed a bit more expensive."

"Fish-men...slaves?"

Nami, Nojiko, and Ken were all bewildered.

Could such powerful fishmen also become slaves?

Before Damian could finish speaking, Arlong's eyes suddenly widened, filled with bloodshot veins, and a surge of rage nearly tore the corners of his eyes apart.

"Damn humans! Kill them!!"

"Then, Kuina, it's yours."

Damian twitched his fingers slightly, and the puppet strings wrapped around Kuina snapped, causing the girl to fall.

Falling from a height of tens of meters, Guina landed lightly.

Damian nodded to himself. The training over the years had paid off; Guina had finally overcome her biggest weakness.

"Since you're a pirate, then I won't hold back."

Kuina's slender body bent slightly, her right hand already resting on the hilt of her beloved knife at her waist.

"Eh!"

Nojiko's expression suddenly changed. She looked at Damian in disbelief. "Mr. Damian, weren't you the one who did it yourself?"

"Don't rush."

Damian just smiled. "Just watch closely, Kuina's power."

"Guina?"

Nami immediately frowned.

She felt like she'd heard that name before.

"A swordsman! Let me handle this!"

Below, the octopus-like fish-man of the Six-Sword Style laughed loudly, brandishing his six swords as he lunged directly at Kuina.

"Juggling?"

Guina was somewhat surprised.

Zoro's three-sword style was already strange enough, but I never expected there to be something even more extraordinary.

just.

"Nonsense."

The Wado Ichimonji was instantly drawn, "Azure Storm!"

The azure slash tore through the air and struck the joyfully charging Xiao Ba, instantly severing the six swords in his hands and sending him flying.

Damian found it somewhat amusing.

As we all know, the human body is harder than steel; a knife that can easily cut through steel cannot cut through the human body.

The fierce flying slash instantly swept across a large area, tearing Xiao Ba and the fishman behind him apart, sending them flying away while spitting blood.

"That's amazing!"

Ah Jian was speechless.

Is this even human?

"Hachi!!"

Ah Long exclaimed in disbelief.

"Kill her!"

The fishman Chroobi, dressed in a martial arts uniform, roared.

The fishmen wielding muskets immediately opened fire on Kuina, and a cacophony of gunfire erupted.

"Miss Kuina!"

Nokiko's expression changed drastically.

No matter what kind of sword one can wield, the human body cannot withstand a gun.

Clap clap clap.

Amid the gunfire, Guina remained unmoved.

All the bullets that hit her were deflected.

"Iron block."

The girl uttered the name of the move indifferently.

"That's really amazing."

Colonel James couldn't help but marvel.

In a short period of time, he learned how to use an iron block, and not just the most basic iron block that could only stay in place.

"If bullets don't work, then try my fists!"

The martial artist Croobi rushed forward.

"One-Sword Style,"

Kuina swayed, "Clouds and Smoke!"

The clouds and smoke were invisible and traceless, so Kuina disappeared from the fishmen's sight in an instant.

"Disappeared?"

Croobi was taken aback.

The next instant, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and was sent flying, accompanied by a spray of blood from his chest.

Not only him, but also at that very moment, the bodies of a large number of fishmen around him were torn apart, and blood spurted out.

"Wow!"

"Ugh! I got slashed!"

"Help!"

Screams and cries of pain rose and fell in an instant.

Blood splattered, and the fishmen fell like harvested wheat.

"What? What?! What is she?! Where is she?!"

The long-beaked fish-man let out a near-collapse scream.

He can spray water bullets with power exceeding that of bullets, but now he can't even detect the enemy—

"puff!"

A chill ran down my waist and abdomen, and my body was sent flying. The last thing I saw was blood splattering from my own body.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! What are you doing?!"

Ah Long's eyes were bloodshot.

He was an absolute racist, but he loved his fellow countrymen more than anyone else.

"Jump into the sea! My fellow countrymen! If she jumps into the sea, there's nothing more she can do!"

Ah Long shouted.

The fish-men, who had been like headless flies, finally came to their senses and swarmed towards the edge of the pool.

but.

"That won't do."

Damian raised his right hand.

The terrain below suddenly changed.

The ground around the pool rose up, and in the blink of an eye, a high wall had formed, blocking the way.

The fishmen were utterly desperate.

Fortunately, this despair did not last long; a few breaths later, they were all cut down to the ground.

"I remember now!"

Nami suddenly exclaimed, "Kuina! The sword hunter I've heard about by chance, the one who hunts swordsmen everywhere! The one known as the strongest swordsman in the East Blue!"

Is it really her?

"Then,"

Kuina stopped and looked back. "There's only one left."

"Go to hell!!"

The wall of Arlong's domain suddenly shattered, and a figure wielding a huge serrated sword charged towards Kuina.

Kuina simply swung her sword casually, without even giving the move a name.

rub!

Half a serrated knife flew through the air.

Blood splattered everywhere.
