Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

By this time, Vista's forehead was starting to be covered in sweat. He not only had to deal with Reina's attacks, but also had to resist using any sword techniques other than the basic ones. This made his concentration unprecedented.

"Is this why the first mate is called Red Eyes? What mesmerizing eyes!" Chef Sachi exclaimed, appearing beside Marco at some point.

“This is not his full power! There are too many strange things about him. Even if you are stronger than him, you can be killed by him if you are not careful!” Marco said seriously.

"But having such a powerful partner really puts my mind at ease!" Sachi said with a smile.

He prefers cooking to fighting, even though he is quite skilled himself.

“You can challenge him to a cooking contest when you have time. He was the ship’s chef before you boarded! I support you challenging him!” Marco said with a sly laugh.

Sachi smiled noncommittally but did not answer.

Meanwhile, the battle between Reina and Vista reached its climax. Despite Vista's best efforts, he could not escape Reina's eyes. In the end, Reina knocked his twin swords away, ending the battle.

"Did you feel it?" Reina asked Vista with a smile after the sparring session ended.

Vista, beaming with joy, nodded and said, "Thank you, First Mate, I understand!"

Even before the fight was over, Vista sensed that his dual swordsmanship was too rigid, failing to bring out his strengths and even obscuring the greatest advantage of his rapier.

"As expected of a sword genius..." Reina shook his head with a chuckle. Geniuses are just like that, unreasonable. It was only a sparring match, and the other party had already figured it all out.

Watching the overjoyed Bistan leave, Reina slowly walked towards Hansen, who was still clinging to Muramasa.

"You...you stay away!" Hansen, who had been watching the show, saw Reina approaching him, grabbed Muramasa, and backed away while shouting in terror.

"You son of a bitch..." Reina almost spat out a mouthful of blood, mainly because Hansen acted like a wronged little girl, and anyone who didn't know the situation would think Reina wanted to do something to him.

"Can you not take it away? Just lend it to me for a few days, just a few days!" Hansen hugged Reina's leg, looking at Muramasa being forcibly taken away as if he were looking at a girlfriend who was about to die.

"Get lost! What's left of me once you have it? I don't have any good weapons right now. I'll talk about it when I get some better ones!" Reina ruthlessly kicked Hansen away, like a heartless man who had pulled up his pants, and left without looking back.

"No..." Hansen cried out in despair as he lay on the ground.

The crew members couldn't help but burst into laughter as they watched Hansen's performance.

“bulubulu…bulubulu…” Reina’s Den Den Mushi rang as soon as he stepped into the cabin.

"Bah!"

"Doctor... what's wrong?" Reina asked after answering the phone.

The Den Den Mushi on his body can only communicate with Dr. Assie's Den Den Mushi on Skypiea. It is the simplest type of Den Den Mushi, but it also has the longest communication range.

Although the sky island was always floating in the clouds above the pirate ship and wasn't too far away, Reina chose this type of Den Den Mushi, which had a long communication range but couldn't connect with other Den Den Mushi, just in case.

"Three warships have been spotted at the ten o'clock position to the left, protecting a rather luxurious large ship!" Dr. Asie's voice came through the Den Den Mushi.

"I understand. Keep an eye on him. I'll go tell the captain!" Reina nodded, hung up the phone, and headed straight for Whitebeard's cabin.

Dr. Assie has recently installed many telescopes on the Sky Island, which are very useful for reconnaissance; they can even detect some severe weather in advance.

"Big brother! News from the sky island says there are three warships to our left that seem to be escorting something! Should we go over there?" Reina knocked on the door of the Newgate's cabin and asked from outside.

“It’s Reina! Come in! Didn’t I tell you? Just come in!” Newgate sat up in bed, rubbed his head, and said.

He drank too much yesterday, so he's still sleeping.

“The necessary rules still need to be followed. On this ship, the eldest brother is the captain, and he must maintain the proper authority!” Upon hearing this, Reina pushed open the door and entered, saying with a smile.

“Gurrah... Majesty isn’t built on these little tricks! You’ve spotted the navy? Come on, let’s go take a look. Don’t you still need a lot of cannons? The navy’s cannons are incredibly powerful!” Newgate said with a loud laugh.

Chapter 59 Navy

"Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Shell them! We must not let them get close!"

"Damn it, why did I run into the Whitebeard Pirates here?"

"Don't panic, don't panic, everyone, prepare for battle!"

"Keep firing! All cannons... attack the Whitebeard Pirates' ship!"

"Have you sent a request... a signal to the nearby branches? Tell them to send people over immediately to assist in capturing the Whitebeard Pirates!"

"Bang bang bang..."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

"Boom boom boom..."

When the Navy discovered that the Whitebeard Pirates were approaching them, they immediately took action.

While protecting the luxurious ship in the middle as it left, they launched artillery attacks in an attempt to sink the Moby Dick.

At this time, the Moby Dick was not the super behemoth it would become; it was only about the size of a regular naval warship.

"boom!"

"Tch~ How could something like this possibly be useful!"

Reina kicked away a cannonball that was aimed at the ship and said with a disdainful look.

"If it's useless, why do you still want to take it?" Marco said with a sneer.

“That’s different. Even if we miss, we can still scare people! Look, I’ll install a hundred or so cannons on the sky island. If we fire a volley, we’ll scare them to death, even if we don’t kill them!” Reina said with a smile.

Marco was speechless. A hundred or so cannons? That would require robbing the entire naval headquarters, otherwise it would be difficult to gather enough.

"The navy warships are still quite fast. They were mainly slowed down by that luxurious ship. I reckon there's some good stuff on board!" Rakuyo, wearing a dark yellow jacket with a green lining, a green undershirt, and a red pirate belt, spoke with the words of an old pirate.

"Get closer, men... don't destroy anything valuable, just take all their treasure!" Whitebeard shouted at the order.

Under normal circumstances, pirates rarely attack the Navy. Even Whitebeard would not provoke the Navy unless he could avoid conflict. If the Navy were to be angered, they could send a few powerful figures, and no pirate crew could withstand them alone.

But this time it was different. The main reason was that Reina had his eye on the Navy's cannons and that luxurious ship, which is why Whitebeard took the initiative to attack the Navy.

"Marco, take me there first!" When they were not far from the enemy warship, Reina, who had a Muramasa on his waist, couldn't wait any longer and said directly to Marco beside him.

Marco didn't waste any words, immediately transforming into his phoenix form, grabbing Reina with both claws, and flying towards the warship.

"By the way... these are your feet, right? Did you wash them last night?" Reina, still in mid-air, pinched his nose and asked with a look of disgust.

Marco almost threw Reina overboard after hearing this. Once they reached the naval warship, Marco tossed Reina overboard and said viciously, "Don't ask me for help again!"

"Can't I ride on your back? Wouldn't that look cool?" Reina kicked a naval officer away and said with a laugh.

Marco chose to ignore Reina. With more and more naval soldiers around them, things were getting a bit complicated with just the two of them.

However, neither Marco nor Reina were people that ordinary soldiers could handle.

Marco's Phoenix form, while not able to become an elemental like Logia-type characters and thus ignore normal attacks, has blue flames that rapidly heal his injuries, making him completely immune to ordinary damage.

As for Reina, it's even simpler. With his Black Emperor abilities, he is completely immune to any damage except for mental attacks until his physical strength is exhausted.

"Bang bang bang..."

After kicking all the surrounding naval soldiers away with a few kicks, Reina, supporting Muramasa with one hand, shouted arrogantly, "Everyone, put down your weapons, put your hands behind your heads and squat down. Men on the left, women on the right, and those who are neither men nor women in the middle!"

"Cough cough cough..." Marco almost choked on his own saliva. What the hell is this?

Even the usually low-key Marco was almost ready to swear at this moment!

The surrounding navy officers exchanged bewildered glances, then charged towards Reina together.

"Sigh... I told you not to resist in vain, why won't you listen?" Reina sighed, and when he looked up, his eyes had turned red.

"It's Akame... Akame Reyna! The pirate with an 80 million bounty! Why is he on Whitebeard's ship?" A naval officer recognized Reyna and shouted in disbelief.

"Huh? Don't you know? I'm the first mate of the Whitebeard Pirates!" Reina disappeared from his spot and reappeared behind the group of marines.

"Thump thump thump..." The swords were sheathed, and all the navy soldiers fell to the ground like harvested wheat.

"Damn it...did I go too far? As expected of a demon sword, it's too sharp!" Reina's face was grim as he looked at the Marines lying in pools of blood.

He originally did not intend to kill these naval soldiers, but only to knock them down. However, he underestimated the sharpness of the Muramasa sword. All of these naval soldiers were seriously injured by him, and their chances of survival were slim if they did not receive effective treatment.

"Damn it... How dare you attack our navy! Akame Reina, prepare to die!" A naval officer wearing a cloak of justice roared and punched Reina.

Reina lightly leaped backward, dodging the attack, and said, "You are the Marines, and I am a pirate. We are enemies, aren't we?"

Although injuring those Marine soldiers was not Reina's intention, he wouldn't be so saintly as to regret or feel guilty. In the world of One Piece, weakness is the original sin!

"You're asking for death!" The naval officer charged forward without regard for the consequences, continuing his attack on Reina.

Just as Reina was about to launch another counterattack, he saw the enemy secretly gesturing to his subordinates who had followed him, instructing them to take the wounded naval soldier away. Reina then abandoned his counterattack and began to dodge the enemy's attacks.

Reina didn't exchange a punch with the other man until after the naval soldiers had been transferred away.

"You know Armament Haki? Marines, state your name!" Reina asked seriously after absorbing the opponent's attack.

“Naval Headquarters, Rear Admiral Jamil!” Jamil replied formally, waving his arm.

He felt something was off about that punch. Even though he had used Armament Haki, he felt like he hadn't hit his opponent.

"Whitebeard Pirates, First Vice-Captain Akame Reina!" Reina solemnly announced, hanging the Muramasa back on his waist.

"Thank you for what happened earlier. As a reward, I will personally capture you and take you to Impel Down!" Jamil said as he attacked Reina.

He had already discovered that Reina had deliberately refrained from retaliating and had his subordinates rescue all the wounded.

"I told you, we are pirates, only interested in treasure. Now hand over all your treasure, it's not too late..." Reina smiled slightly, continuing to clash with the other party as he replied.

"Phew~ What a strange ability. I've already used Armament Haki, so why do I still feel this way!" After his punch was absorbed by Reina again, Jamil jumped back and left the fighting circle, looking at Reina with a solemn expression.

"Want to know?" Reina smiled mysteriously and said, "Go ask Zephyr! He might know more!"

"So fast... This is impossible..." Jamil's eyes widened, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

"Wow! Pfft~~~"

Jamil felt a sharp pain in his stomach and couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of blood.

Looking down at his abdomen, which he had clearly defended with Armament Haki, he felt a sharp pain. Jamil knew that the attack had seriously injured him.

"Click!" Reina used a pair of sea stone handcuffs to cuff Germi.

"What are you looking at? This is what Zephyr gave me! Now I'm giving it to you. As for the key, go ask Zephyr for it yourself!" Reina said with a strange laugh when he saw Jermi's frustrated look.

"This ship has been captured!" Marco also descended from the sky. While Reina and Germi were fighting, he had already knocked down all the remaining naval soldiers on the ship.

"Hey~ We're pretty strong now!" Reina said with a smile as he watched the battles on the other two warships also nearing their end.

"Of course! Don't you know who we are? The Whitebeard Pirates are no joke!" Marco said proudly.

Ignoring the ashen-faced Germi, Reina directed the ordinary crew members who had already boarded the ship to bring all the navy's cannons and shells back to their own vessel, while walking towards the most luxurious ship.
