So at this moment, facing a group of Barto Club members with sharp teeth and pointed chins, bizarre makeup, and who kept mocking them with vulgar language...

That feeling was even more unbearable for them than being killed outright!

So... Bartolomeo, you bastard, you recruited a bunch of like-minded people just to mock the enemy, right?!

What did they have to do with this battle from beginning to end?!

Peng! ! !

With the final impact of the Forward Luffy Senpai, the already battered World Pirates finally succumbed to Bartolomeo's torment, wobbling for a moment before shattering into pieces.

In an instant, the barrier spear moved as if it were nothing, smashing the Wald pirate ship into a pile of fragments.

"Aaaaaaah...!!!!"

Looking at the shipwreck debris floating on the sea and the members of the Wald Pirates, Wald suddenly roared to the sky, unleashing a burst of impotent rage.

However, he had no way to deal with Bartolomeo, who possessed a double barrier.

In that painful experience that he had just recalled, he repeatedly attacked Barto and his ships using various means.

However, under the double barrier, all his attacks were futile and had no effect whatsoever.

In fact, even Crimson was shocked by Bartolomeo's complete form.

Once Bartolomew forms a double barrier, there is no way to break through it except for some special Devil Fruit abilities, such as Robin's Flower Flower Fruit.

unless……

Once Barto's physical or mental energy is completely exhausted, it will be difficult for him to continue maintaining the barrier.

However, given Barto's current strength, it might take him ten days to half a month to exhaust his stamina.

"Wald, is there anything else you want to say?!"

The Forward Luffy Senpai sailed forward and came to stand before Wald.

Barto stood next to the bow of the Luftwaffe.

As a die-hard fan of Luffy, he would never stand on the bow of the ship like other pirates.

The bow of their ship represents the faith of all members of their pirate crew.

"Humph!"

Faced with Barto's questioning, Wald immediately gave an angry snort.

But when faced with his failure, he did not choose to run away or turn a blind eye.

"The victor is king, the loser is villain; the strong prey on the weak—this is the unchanging law of this sea!"

"Kill me or torture me, it's up to you. I, Wald, will take your last name the moment I blink!"

"Good! That's got guts!" Barto grinned, then suddenly waved to his side: "Someone come here!!! Since they're so upright, let's not spoil their fun!"

"Shoot him! Kill this guy!!!"

"Yes, Boss Barto!"

Upon hearing the order, a group of members of the "Shamate" subculture immediately raised their weapons and pointed their guns at Wald.

???

Wald's eyes narrowed.

What's going on?!

Didn't you initially tell me to surrender and join the Straw Hat crew?

I was just being polite, why did you take it so seriously?!

Wald's heart skipped a beat, completely taken aback by Barto's decisiveness. But the words were already out, and the stubborn man would not take them back.

As he watched a group of punks about to pull the trigger and end their wasted lives, Wald slowly closed his eyes, awaiting death.

But just then, a hoarse voice suddenly rang out:

"Wait a minute! My lords!"

A small, unsteady figure scrambled across the ship's debris to reach Wald, then knelt down before Barto and the others without hesitation.

"Dear members of the Straw Hat Pirates..."

"We are willing to surrender and accept all the Straw Hat Pirates' demands. Please, sirs, spare our lives!!!"

"This humble servant kneels in gratitude to all of you esteemed officials!!!"

Chapter 490 No time for acting, time to get to the battlefield...

"Binjac...get out of my way!!!"

Wald suddenly roared.

Looking at Bingjack kneeling on the broken wooden planks, desperately begging for mercy, he couldn't help but recall that night thirty years ago!

At that time, his brother and his subordinates abandoned him without hesitation in order to escape the navy's arrest.

Thirty years have passed, and although the World Pirates have reunited under his own command.

But Wald never forgave their betrayal.

Seeing Binjak kneel directly before the enemy, even at the cost of the entire pirate crew's dignity, an endless rage surged within Wald.

He was willing to accept being defeated by the enemy, whether they wanted to kill him or torture him.

But as a great pirate, he absolutely could not accept being insulted like this.

To Wald's surprise, Bingjack, who had always felt guilty towards him since his release from prison and had always obeyed him, suddenly knelt down and shouted loudly:

"Enough! Wald!!!"

"Cough cough..."

Thirty years have passed, and Bin Jack is no longer the strategist who can sail the seas and help pirate crews devise plans and plan routes.

It can be said that for the past thirty years, he has lived in constant guilt.

Regardless of whether their escape was the best option under the circumstances, their actions had thoroughly harmed Wald.

Bingjack could sense that Wald no longer trusted them.

Or rather, every member of the Wald Pirates felt this way.

But they didn't care.

These thirty years were bought for them by Wald.

Therefore, they were willing to use the little time they had left to accompany Wald on his final journey.

Just as Bingjack finished speaking, several other voices came from nearby.

One by one, members of the Wald Pirates staggered over the ship's debris, rushing over from all directions.

While Barto's methods could be described as invincible, all of his destructive power was concentrated on the enemy's ships.

Aside from looking a little disheveled, the members of the Wald Pirates were not seriously injured.

The most serious case involved a Devil Fruit user who fell into the sea.

At this moment, he was being carried by a fishman pirate, soaking wet and weak, to the front of the Forward Luffy Senpai, and then, like Bin Jack, he knelt down in front of Barto.

"Lord Barto! Please spare Captain Wald!"

"We are willing to join the Straw Hats' ranks and obey the sword in your hand!"

"If you're still angry about what just happened, then kill me! I'm willing to die for Captain Wald!"

"Yes, if someone has to die, then let it be me!"

"That's right! I can too..."

One by one, the pirates of the Wald Pirates pressed their heads to the ground, desperately begging for mercy for their captain.

As a Devil Fruit user, Wald had completely lost any chance of victory after losing his ship.

At this moment, they dared not harbor any illusions anymore, and only hoped that Captain Wald, who had saved them back then, could take their place and live out the rest of their lives.

"You...you all..."

Wald stared blankly at his brother and subordinates who were pleading for his life, unsure of what to say.

At this moment, Bingjack also slightly raised his head, with glistening liquid flowing from the corner of his eyes, whether it was the seawater that had just splashed down or his tears, it was hard to tell.

"Wald, that's enough..."

“We’re all getting old, and the world is becoming more and more unfamiliar. I’m really grateful to you for making it this far.”

“If you hadn’t forcefully dragged me out to sea back then, I might have spent my whole life fishing in our village, living a mediocre life.”

"I am very proud to have a younger brother like you."

"But that's enough. Our adventure...is over..."

"elder brother……"

This was the first time Wald had uttered those two words to Bingjack since his release from prison.

The title they hadn't heard in decades momentarily stunned Wald and Bingjack.

A moment later, Bingjack's lips slowly curled into a satisfied smile.

With a loud bang!

He slammed his head against the block of wood again, and the horned helmet on his head, resembling that of a Viking, rolled away and fell into the sea.

"Please, sir, give us another chance!"

"The World Pirates are willing to submit to the Straw Hat Pirates!"

Okay~

Clang.

A pile of sea stone handcuffs suddenly fell from the sky, landing precisely in front of Wald and the others, as if it had been prepared in advance.

The members of the Wald Pirates quickly looked up and were immediately met with Barto's calm and smiling expression.
