Settsetse! The Pirate Nemesis

"Robin misses you so much. I was so excited last night when I heard you were coming back." Knowing that normal methods would definitely not deter Sett's determination, Tina could only try the emotional appeal.

Sett sneered at this: "Are you underestimating me or Robin?"

"..." Upon hearing this, she fell silent. Finally, Tina sighed helplessly, "Alright... I'll talk to Robin later. But she really misses you. I've seen her diligently training her Haki lately, and she wants to give you a surprise."

“This is my little Robin~” Sett nodded, then said, “I’ll be going back… I’ll just be traveling around the world for a while, getting to know the local customs and culture, and maybe recruiting a few thugs for the casinos! I’ll hang up now.”

"Oh."

Upon hearing Sett's words, Tina nodded, preparing to hang up—did she know that Sett always tossed the phone aside after making a call? If she didn't hang up, the line would probably stay busy.

Just as Tian was about to hang up, Sett's voice came from the other end of the phone again.

"Damn it, the food yesterday was a bit greasy... Mihawk, does your ship have a toilet?"

Upon hearing this, Mihawk paused slightly in controlling the sails, then silently turned his head away.

Tina: My hand suddenly wouldn't obey me when I hung up the phone.

79. Moonlight Moria

Staring blankly at Mihawk, who was turning his head to manipulate the sails, Sett also fell into a brief silence. Looking around, all he could see was the boundless blue sea.

"Tell me the truth... how did you go to the toilet when you were alone at sea?"

"..."

The atmosphere on the small sail was a little awkward. After a moment, Sett finally sighed and said, "Hurry up and row... I need to find an island within two hours!"

Mihawk remained silent. He suddenly regretted traveling with Sett—before, he was alone, so even if he relieved himself anywhere, no one else would see. Now, with another person, not only was the already cramped single-person sailboat even more crowded, but more importantly, they would have to install a toilet on the next island.

But... it's just a small sailboat, and it's already cramped enough for two people just to ride on it. Add a toilet on top, and if there's no other place to stay at night, one of them would probably have to stick their head into the toilet to get a good night's sleep.

Mihawk wasn't one to ramble on, so he didn't say much, but simply maneuvered the sails more frequently, heading towards the next supply point with the ocean current.

"Too slow! I'll do it myself!"

Upon hearing Sett's words, Mihawk shrugged and silently handed the sail ropes to Sett.

Sett merely scoffed, then lowered the sails right in front of Mihawk. He then plunged into the water. Having guessed Sett's intentions, Mihawk calmly sat at the stern of the sailboat, leaning against the side of the ship.

Then, just like a jet ski starting its engine, came Sett's first shout: "Move it, sir!!"

The azure sea spewed water more than three meters high under Sett's bombardment. The rumbling sounds of Shave and Moonwalk were incessant, and the simple wooden sailboat creaked and swayed, teetering on the verge of falling apart.

About three hours later, in the West Sea, on Sunshine Island.

He was tall and muscular, nearly four meters tall. He had no eyebrows, and his appearance was like that of a demon. He wore a black bodysuit and a belt, dressed in a dark Lolita style. Moria grinned as he looked at the island in front of him.

Unlike his future self, who was seven meters tall and plump, Gecko Moria is now thirty-four years old, in his prime. Seven years ago, Gecko Moria challenged the great pirate Kaido in Wano Country in the New World. After being thoroughly taught a lesson, Moria was defeated by Kaido and lost all his crewmates in the process.

Unlike his future self, Moria still retains some fighting spirit and hasn't completely given up on revenge. To gather strength, Moria returned to his old home in the West Blue from the New World, hoping to find some allies to fight Kaido alongside him.

While the Grand Line also boasts a wealth of talent, the competition is far too fierce. In contrast, the West Blue is known for its rugged and fierce people, all hailing from the same sea. In Moria's view, the West Blue is definitely a better choice than the Grand Line.

Looking at the residents of Sunshine Island, Moria swaggered down from his dark-style warship.

He took out his pistol and fired two shots into the sky.

"Your Lord Moonlight Moria is here! If you know what's good for you, hand over all your valuables!"

Upon seeing Moria's arrival, the residents of Sun Path were taken aback. Then, an old, purple-skinned farmer carrying a hoe approached; "What Moonlight/Sunshine? This is Capone family territory... Who do you think you are?"

The old farmer's face held a hint of disdain—the old men of Xihai had all experienced their share of life's hardships. Especially since he was a retired member of the mafia. For one thing, he still received a monthly allowance!

"Who is Moriah? I've never heard of him."

"So arrogant? Is he some newbie from somewhere?"

Seeing their reaction, Moria's forehead veins bulged—although the people of the West Blue were known for their fierceness, information was extremely scarce due to the gang's deliberate manipulation. For one thing, even the common people of Ohara, renowned for its academic pursuits, knew nothing about Devil Fruits.

One side is fierce and chaotic, the other is ignorant and closed-minded. This is the current state of the Western Sea.

"I am Moria!!!" Feeling insulted, Moria said angrily, "I fought against Kaido!"

"Who is Kaido?"

"..." Silence fell, then Moria sighed—he finally understood. The promising guys in the West Blue had long since joined the Mafia or gone solo; to recruit new followers, they needed to at least make a name for themselves first!

At the very least, they should have read the World Economic News! Otherwise, they might not even know about Kaido, the mighty pirate who shook the New World, and his defeated henchmen!!

Thinking this, Gecko Moria drew his knife. But before Moria could say anything, a kick came from behind, sending him flying.

"Damn it! Where's the toilet?!"

------------

It took a little longer than expected... Let's see how many updates I can manage, but I'll guarantee at least two. I'll make up for any shortfall tomorrow.

80. The Shock of Sett

Having held it in the whole way, Sett felt his sphincter bulging with pent-up energy. It was only Sett's pride that wouldn't allow it; otherwise, he felt he could unleash a powerful punch even with just a dermatitis gel.

Stepping on Moria's head, he ran over and, hearing someone ask a question, the old farmer quickly pointed to the location of the public toilet.

Seeing this, Sett didn't even bother to express his gratitude. With a few thuds, his figure flashed to the toilet door.

Stepping on the ground, Moria felt his mind go blank—I am Gecko Moria! This ignorant old man was one thing, but that guy actually dared to step over me!

In his rage, Moria felt his body swell up once more. He abruptly stood up, only to find a dark figure standing beside him.

He wore a short-sleeved shirt and had his hair slicked back. His hawk-like, sharp eyes were calm—though it was the first time Moria had seen him, he could sense the sharp edge emanating from Hawkeye.

Was he here to cause trouble too?

While Moria was still pondering, Hawkeye glanced at him and shook his head indifferently. Then he went to a nearby tavern to drink alone—perhaps some might wonder why Sett was so upset by a poop while Hawkeye was unaffected, even though they ate the same food.

The reason is simple: as a swordsman, Hawkeye thinks three steps ahead before taking a single action. In other words, Hawkeye gets up relatively early.

Some people look handsome and dashing, yet remain calm in the face of danger. They wield a long sword with extraordinary bearing and are also excellent cooks.

But he secretly defecates in private.

"Shopkeeper...who is the best shipbuilder on this island?"

Realizing that Hawkeye's attention was completely elsewhere, Moria breathed a sigh of relief—although it was the first time he'd seen Mihawk, Mihawk's sharp eyes were incredibly intimidating. Even without a fight, Moria could sense a hint of danger.

Moria was naturally fearless in a one-on-one fight, but that guy was clearly no ordinary person either—although there was an element of carelessness involved, being able to kick him, who was five meters tall, down with one kick definitely meant he had some strength!

Turning his head, Moria cast a cruel glance toward the toilet.

I looked towards... the toilet.

"Is this guy planning to fight in the toilet?"

The people on Sunshine Island were whispering amongst themselves.

"Is your taste really that strong?"

"Should we move further away?"

Although the voice was very soft, Moriah's ears were incredibly sharp. The faint sound reached his ears, and Moriah's face visibly darkened. Just as Moriah was about to tell them to shut up, the purple-skinned old farmer carrying a hoe walked over with a worried and fearful expression.

"What?" Moria's voice was full of annoyance. After a moment's hesitation, the purple-skinned old farmer shakily pulled two banknotes from his pocket.

"When you're fighting... can you go outside of town?" The old farmer asked, his voice tinged with worry. "If there's poop everywhere... it'll be a real hassle to clean up..."

"..."

The old farmer's voice was full of sincerity.

While Moria was still silent, the old farmer beside him, fearing that Moria would refuse, took out a broken bowl from his pocket, raised his hand and waved banknotes, saying, "Hey, hey, hey! We're all neighbors! Every household should contribute some money to help out! Otherwise, we'll make a mess of things and have to clean it up ourselves!"

Hearing the old farmer's words, the people around him also expressed their understanding. The florist, dressed in black, was the first to run out, took out a wad of banknotes from his pocket and put them on the table; "Please take care of me, please don't forget to throw money at my shop when you're fighting."

"Me too! Me too! My tavern was just renovated!"

"Oh dear, my granddaughter is working here, young man, please have mercy..."

Besides those who genuinely offered money to stop the fighting, there were also a few sneaky bastards in the crowd.

A burly man carrying a furry creature quietly slipped a few coins into Moria's pocket: "When you're fighting, could you throw a few more lumps of flowers into that flower shop?"

And so, the people of Sunshine Island quickly filled Moria's broken bowl with a wad of cash—one banknote here, two coins there—all of them doing so willingly!

When has Gecko Moria ever suffered such humiliation?! Putting everything else aside, although he was defeated by Kaido, the fact that he survived is enough to make everyone in the New World look at him with new respect—in all the years since the Great Pirate Era began, no more than five people have survived Kaido's clutches!

In particular, Moria was the only one who survived after the direct confrontation began!

With a kick, Moria overturned the broken bowl and threw the coins in his arms to the ground. "Get out! All of you get out! I, Moria, don't want your worthless filth!!!"

With that, Moria rushed into the toilet without looking back!

Keep trying, you dung beetle!

Seti focused his energy and concentrated. Suddenly, the door burst open with a loud bang, and a burly man five meters tall stormed in menacingly.

There were pits on both sides, yet their eyes were fixed on him. Their demeanor didn't immediately convey arrogance or rage; in fact, it stunned even Sett.

The pirates of this world... "would even steal shit?!"

Sett exclaimed, "Wow!"

81. Shadow Fruit

Staring intently at Moria, whose eyes were filled with ferocity, Sett opened his mouth—if anyone else dared to stare at Sett like that, given Sett's explosive temper, he would definitely teach that guy a lesson.

But things are different now; Sett is currently taking a dump. In this situation, facing a guy who would even steal someone's poop, Sett is willing to give him face.

Sett moved forward a few steps and gestured towards the pit behind him.

That gesture practically screamed, "Hey, hurry up!"

Upon seeing this, Moria was first taken aback. Then, his face visibly darkened. He clenched his fists and strode menacingly toward Sett; "Damn it! Do you even know who just arrived?!"

"...Really?" Sett's face was full of doubt.

I'm a little sorry to admit, but the urge to go to the bathroom was just too intense—I held it in for over two hours, and my deliberate punches were like rocket boosters. Forget about bumping into people, Sett would have smashed into a wall without even blinking.

Seeing the bewilderment on Sett's face, Moria's anger intensified. Without a word, he raised his fist and slammed it into Sett's head.

"Go to hell, you blind fool!!!"
