Starting with two Kamui, they raised the flag of rebellion in One Piece.

Chapter 114 The Flower of Slaughter Blooms, the Flame of Love Burns

It felt as if my body could sense the rhythm of the wind.

"Run! The navy is coming!"

"It's terrible! Berserk pirates are attacking the town!"

"6

"Someone, please save me!!"

All sorts of sounds, along with the sound of the wind, passed by my ears.

"Ah!! My hand, my hand has been cut off!"

"Mom, where are you—"

"You mere trash, you think you can do whatever you want? I'll deal with you first!"

Li Mingyuan kept moving on the houses in the port.

It felt like returning to the Naruto world after a long absence, trekking at high speed through those giant trees.

Despite the chaos all around, it was precisely this chaos that gave Li Mingyuan a sense of nostalgia.

There was a time when the era in Naruto seemed to be like this. No matter when, all that could be heard was this kind of noise, and blood and screams were the only sights around.

The noise kept him awake at night and made him very upset.

It even unconsciously gave him the idea of ​​changing the world.

"Since they are bounty hunters, it's only natural for them to take advantage of the situation and hunt, right?"

Li Mingyuan looked down from above, taking in the entire surrounding situation.

Although the female revolutionary cadre had protected a little girl earlier, there were countless people in need of protection in this situation.

Driven by the pirates' frenzied desire to "make one last grab," the entire port became a target of attack, with pirates committing murder and arson everywhere.

It is because of the existence of such pirates that Nami's past tragedy occurred. It is also because of the endless stream of such pirates that the Straw Hat crew can never represent the pirate community, allowing the Navy to remain on the side of justice.

Li Mingyuan was unable to help everyone in this situation.

However, taking down those pirates who seem to have bounties is still within our capabilities.

"Damn it, is this all the money we have?! This is supposed to be a pretty big shop!"

The edge of the town's street closest to the port.

A pirate with bulging muscles and a fierce expression was shouting angrily in defiance.

Beside him, the shop windows were shattered, and several shop employees lay on the ground covered in blood, already lifeless. Only the shop manager remained, still trembling as he stared at the pirates before him.

"While your voluntary payment is a sensible move, I am very dissatisfied with your sales figures."

"Hey! Tell me why your business looks so good, but you have so little money?! Did you secretly hide all the rest of the money?!"

The pirate punched the shopkeeper in the face, instantly causing the shopkeeper's nose bridge to collapse and blood to gush out.

Even so, the store manager could only manage a forced smile and stammered, "I'm so sorry—the store's business has been very bad lately, that's all we have—"

"It's so noisy! Do you think I want to hear this?!"

The pirate roared and punched the shopkeeper in the head several more times, instantly leaving the shopkeeper bleeding profusely from his head.

Even though it was such a critical moment, and still an unexpected situation, with the island's sheriffs unable to maintain order, he still chose this shop as his target in the split second before the navy's imminent arrival.

He risked his life to come here!

Unfortunately, the shop didn't have much money, so he ended up with nothing.

"Damn it, there's no time left—and other pirates have already broken into the surrounding shops. If we try to find another shop now, it'll be too late."

"In that case, wouldn't we have no choice but to keep running away?"

The pirate casually tossed the shopkeeper, who was rolling his eyes, to the ground, snorted coldly, and turned around angrily to look at the street.

But, just as he looked in front of him...

The pirate suddenly paused for a moment.

At that moment, a figure carrying something in his hand stood in front of him.

Just a moment ago, there was no one behind him.

"Who are you, you bastard!?!"

Faced with a stranger of unknown origin, the pirate instinctively planned to intimidate him first and test his background. However, before he could even utter a word, he suddenly sensed that something was amiss.

The pirate clutched his neck.

He couldn't even utter a complete shout; he stared in terror at the man before him, his mouth emitting hoarse breathing sounds.

At this moment, the figure in front of the pirate gently lowered his hand.

He didn't say a word.

After lingering for a few seconds on the fallen shop assistants, he turned around and left the store.

Only the pirate remained standing alone in the shop, watching the other person's back, filled with resentment and wanting to say something.

Unfortunately, it didn't work out in the end.

puff--!!

A large amount of blood gushed out from the pirate's neck, staining the entire shop red.

Amidst the magnificent bloom of blood flowers, Li Mingyuan stood on the street carrying Alvida.

His gaze turned back.

All the chaotic shops he had passed through were now silent, replaced by an overwhelming, almost pungent, stench of blood.

In the chaos, it's not just pirates who show malice, especially in this mixed black market where anyone—whether a shop assistant, owner, or sheriff—can instantly transform into a pirate.

Li Mingyuan is a slightly difficult person to deal with. Once he's done something, he doesn't mind going all the way.

This naturally leads to a situation where it takes a bit more time.

More inevitably, he will often see himself arriving a step late.

"Although I have done my best, it is meaningless to say these things to those of you who are already dead."

"If this were the first world I ever traveled to, I might feel guilty, but I'm sorry, I don't feel any guilt about your deaths now."

Li Mingyuan remained calm as he muttered to himself, "In my next life, I don't want to live on this wretched island overrun by pirates."

After saying that, Li Mingyuan didn't look around again; he continued to look towards the center of the island.

Having arrived here, we're quite a distance from the port. However, considering this is an island teeming with pirates, perhaps venturing further in would make us safer.

"There's really no other way."

Li Mingyuan shook his head slightly, his expression filled with helplessness.

Who made me a captain who cared for my crew?

Since the matter involves two crew members who are completely incapacitated, we must act more prudently and thoroughly.

So now, let's start cleaning from the street a little ahead; the timing should be just right.

Li Mingyuan gazed at the inner part of the town.

Others might not be able to see clearly, but with Li Mingyuan's eyesight, he could clearly see that a "pirate" was dragging a screaming woman into the alley, and a little girl with a terrified expression was lying on the ground nearby.

Although Li Mingyuan was also confused, wondering why "pirates" would have the energy to do such a thing during such a race against time to escape, there was nothing he could do. Since he had already seen it, he couldn't pretend he hadn't noticed.

If there were a reward, wouldn't that be a huge windfall?

"ah!!"

"Why are you like this?"

"Wait! I'm not the sea—uh!"

Blood fell like rain.

How many people have actually witnessed such a scene in their lifetime?

Like a symphony playing in succession, amidst screams and thuds of people falling to the ground, blood became the sole fuel for the street art.

Even the townspeople who were rescued from Li Mingyuan's clutches now looked at his retreating figure with utter fear in their eyes.

As for the pirates, there's no need to say more.

The entire port town, except for areas quite far from where Li Mingyuan had traveled, was now completely silent on the main port road.

The horrific violence brought about by Li Mingyuan completely surpassed the violent impact of the pirates.

Even so, Li Mingyuan's actions are not yet over.

The blooming of the Blood Flower continues to occur randomly on the streets.

A little distance away from Li Mingyuan, Nami and Karina, carrying large bags and bundles, were running towards him.

Logically speaking, given Li Mingyuan's speed, how could the two of them possibly keep up?

That's what Nami was thinking when she first tried to stop Li Mingyuan from going ahead.

But the reality is that she and Karina not only kept up, but it was precisely because they were with Li Mingyuan that they were able to pass through safely and without any obstacles.

"Captain, are you helping the residents fight off pirates?"

"Why—?"

"Those guys, no matter how you look at them, are just small fry without any bounty."

Karina watched Li Mingyuan's indiscriminate killing as always, feeling powerless to even comment, and her expression was also somewhat puzzled.

Anyone could see that not all the people Li Mingyuan killed were pirates. Given Li Mingyuan's personality, he shouldn't be so meddlesome as to help others. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become a bounty hunter with the goal of earning a bounty in the first place.

Karina was puzzled, which is why she asked, believing that Nami should think the same way she did.

But Nami did not reply at this moment.

Nami just stared at Li Mingyuan's back.

It was so profound that he etched that image into his very eyes.

She didn't know when it started, but her hand gently gripped the fabric of her clothes, and her breathing became uncontrollably erratic.

here we go again----

She thought to herself.

What's wrong with me?

Ever since I first saw Li Mingyuan fight A Long in Cocoa West Village, it's always been like this—a scene that is clearly cruel and incredibly bloody.

But for some reason, whenever I see Li Mingyuan looking like this...

She always felt her heart beating very fast.

In a daze, I even felt a kind of indescribable feeling.

She felt that Li Mingyuan's face at this moment was cold and stained with blood.

He was more handsome than ever before.

"Nami? Nami! Can you hear me?"

Suddenly, the voices coming from the side startled Nami back to her senses.

Nami looked to her side and found Karina staring at her with a somewhat speechless expression.

"You, your eyes were practically glued to the captain's back just now, are you really alright?"

Karina looked at Nami and couldn't help but sigh, "I know you hate pirates, but I didn't expect it to get to this extent—if you want to applaud the captain's behavior, I suggest you don't. If this continues, Nami, you'll eventually become a weirdo with bizarre tastes."

As she spoke, Karina patted Nami's shoulder earnestly, offering heartfelt advice.

"Huh! Was I staring at the captain's back just now?"

Nami panicked for a moment and said nervously, "I was just thinking about something else and got a little distracted."

"Um?"

Karina, who hadn't been paying much attention at first, suddenly stopped in her tracks after Nami said those words.

Karina glanced at Nami beside her, her expression thoughtful.

Nami, you wouldn't—?

"6

Karina hesitated.

Although normally it should be impossible, she is probably just overthinking it.

However, Karina's feelings at that moment told her that things were not so simple.

Just as Karina was hesitating and about to ask a question,

Thump—! ! !

An unprecedented shock, accompanied by violent tremors, suddenly erupted from the port.

As a strong gust of wind swept in, Nami and Karina were surprised and quickly steadied themselves.

"What's wrong this time?!"

Karina exclaimed in frustration.

Thanks to her quick reflexes, she grabbed the edge of the house beside her, preventing her from being blown away. However, the package she was carrying on her back was flung into the air.

Looking at the package flying freely, Karina was on the verge of tears.

How could I be so unlucky!

Meanwhile, Li Mingyuan was dealing with pirates on the street.

"What is this?"

Li Mingyuan raised an eyebrow slightly.

He looked in the direction of the explosion. If the previous attack by the revolutionary army was like being hit by artillery fire, then the explosion happening on the coast was like a direct hit by a missile, far surpassing it in scale and power.

It's hard to imagine that anyone on this island today could carry out an attack of this scale.

So that means—

"It looks like Garp has reached the shore."

Li Mingyuan narrowed his eyes, thinking with certainty to himself.

Although there is some difference between the arrival time of the warships and the time he estimated, it is almost certain that Garp will arrive at the port.

After all, only that old man's strength could produce such destructive power comparable to a missile explosion. Moreover, that careless old man also had an amazing jumping ability similar to flying, which would allow him to arrive at the port before the warship.

If he used some kind of powerful attack that covered a great distance to deal with the fleeing pirate ships, then it's not surprising that this is the result.

At this rate, it's only a matter of time before the navy sweeps through the island.

"Phew—it seems it won't be long before I can return to my own ship."

"Hopefully, the ship won't have sunk by then."
