Recruit Luffy at the start and build the strongest navy.

"Are you brave? I don't think so!"

"Who told you I'm alone?"

Before Red Hair could understand the meaning of Kyle's words, his expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly turned his head to look in a certain direction.

He sensed an incredibly powerful aura approaching him at an extremely fast speed.

In just a moment, a figure appeared in his sight.

The moment he saw the figure's face clearly, the red-haired man's expression changed drastically, filled with utter horror.

"Monkey D. Garp!!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other members of the Red-Haired Pirates also changed drastically.

Ben Beckman also looked in Garp's direction. When he felt the powerful aura emanating from Garp, he finished his cigarette in one gulp, exhaled, and frowned.

"The situation seems to be very bad!"

Monkey D. Garp, the naval hero, is a name that any pirate with a bit of strength would know.

This is the legendary man who has cornered the Pirate King multiple times, and Shanks is undoubtedly one of the most qualified to speak on this matter.

After all, he was once an apprentice on Gol D. Roger's ship, and the memory of being chased by Garp is incredibly vivid.

In an instant, Ben Beckman came up with a solution and looked up at Kyle.

"Looks like we'll have to take a kid hostage for a bit!"

Ben Beckman muttered something under his breath, then leaped into the air and sped toward Kyle at incredible speed.

Given Garp's strength, it's no exaggeration to say that all of them combined wouldn't be enough to defeat the enemy.

Although it's a bit shameful to kidnap a child, it's a small matter when it comes to self-preservation.

Looking at Ben Beckman charging towards him, Kyle's expression didn't change at all; instead, he gave Ben Beckman a faint smile.

His body transformed into purple lightning and vanished from the spot in an instant.

Ben Beckman grabbed at empty air, a look of surprise on his face.

He frowned slightly, turned his head to look in a certain direction, and saw Kyle floating in mid-air, smiling at him.

"How scary, uncle!"

Ben Beckman landed back on the boat and looked up at Kyle.

"The Rumble-Rumble Fruit?"

"No, no, no!"

Kyle shook his finger, looked at everyone, and spoke earnestly:

"It's the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Purple Lightning Divine Form!"

"Please use your full name to show respect for me!!"

(⊙o⊙)...

"Gentlemen, how about trying my moves?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of crackling sounds rang out, and dazzling purple lightning exploded, accompanied by a faint, loud cry.

A huge purple thunderbird appeared in their field of vision, its body crackling with violent purple lightning.

The Thunderbird spread its wings, and countless lightning bolts shot out from its enormous wings, splashing towards the ships below.

The obese Lucky Roux leaped out, slightly crouching, and roared:

"Watch me!!"

He unleashed a powerful burst of Armament Haki from his palms, annihilating the incoming lightning snakes.

"Hey, Fatty's got some skills!"

"How about we try this one?"

Kyle raised an eyebrow, waved his small hand, and the giant Thunderbird spread its wings and hurtled downwards.

! !

The violent aura arrived before the thunderbird, causing everyone's clothes to rustle.

Lachi Rue's expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with horror.

no?!

Are you a real child or a fake child?

Is this kind of powerful move something you could unleash at your age?

Can you handle it?!

Lucky Rue's fat jiggled twice. To be honest, Kyle's move made him feel an extremely strong sense of threat.

Even if they could block it, it wouldn't be easy; at the very least, they would get injured.

But he wouldn't back down. If he retreated when facing a little brat, where would he put his face?

His eyes narrowed, and he prepared to use all his strength to deal with Kyle's move.

But then a hand landed on him, and a soft voice from the red-haired man came from beside him.

"Lachi Lu, let me do it!"

As he spoke, the redhead stepped forward, drew his Griffin sword, and slashed out with a fierce blow.

A red slash wave, carrying an unstoppable momentum, clashed with the Thunderbird in mid-air.

boom--

The moment they made contact, an extremely powerful aftershock erupted, as countless purple lightning snakes swept outwards.

The two remained locked in a stalemate in the air, with ripples spreading outwards like waves on the surface of water.

Finally, with a sound like an explosion, Zhanbo and Leiniao disappeared.

!!!

The pirates in the Red-Haired Pirates widened their eyes in disbelief.

Although they knew that the slashing wave they had just witnessed was not Shanks' full power, its power was still considerable.

The result was a draw with this kid?

The red-haired man frowned slightly, then suddenly shouted loudly:

"Everyone, get together and take this brat down here!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone leaped up and rushed towards Kyle.

!!!

Kyle's expression changed, and without the slightest hesitation, countless violent purple lightning bolts erupted from his body, blasting towards the red-haired group.

However, faced with the combined efforts of the many members of the Red-Haired Pirates, the lightning was shattered in an instant.

But this moment is enough.

Everyone's expressions froze slightly, for Kyle, who had been above them just moments before, had vanished.

The Observation Haki was released, and looking up, one could only see a black dot.

Kyle is now a kilometer above them.

At this distance, they are practically helpless against each other since they can't fly. The attack range of the wave-slashing technique is sufficient, but the problem is that at this distance, it's incredibly easy for Kyle to dodge it.

Okay, the hostage situation has failed!!

Activate Plan B immediately!!!

"Fold up the sails!!"

Redhead shouted and called everyone to come to the stern of the ship. After exchanging glances, they simultaneously released Armament Haki and bombarded the sea.

In an instant, a huge hole sank into the sponge, and the resulting recoil force suddenly burst forth, sending the ship into the sky.

The ship flew through the sky at an extremely high speed, with the whistling wind constantly in the air.

Even so, a sense of oppression still lingered in everyone's hearts.

Everyone's expression changed instantly, and they looked up at the sky, where a red light flickered and emitted a chilling aura.

The next second, Garp's excited roar came from the sky.

"Fist bone... Impact!!"

An incredibly powerful shockwave erupted from Garp's fist, heading towards the Red-Haired Pirates' ship flying through the air.

!!!

Redhead's expression changed drastically, his muscles tensed, he gripped Griffin tightly with his left hand, and suddenly leaped up.

He channeled all his strength into Griffin and roared:

"Gods, beware!!"
