Give the pirate world a little heroic spirit shock)

Liis looked at the monster twitching in pain, feeling helpless. If Katakuri or Garp were here, they would probably be able to smash it into a pulp with just one punch, while she would have to chop it for a long time.

I still haven’t practiced enough.

The sea king couldn't bear the pain any longer, so it stretched out its two tentacles with all its strength and raised them high into the air.

Liis looked at the crazy octopus helplessly. This sea king was measured to be two hundred meters tall, five times larger than the one she had encountered on the navy ship before. It would take a lot of time to kill it.

We have to find a way to develop a large-scale skill.

Looking at the tentacles raised high, Liis was ready to call Jingji, who had been guarding her side in spirit form, to come out for help.

But the tentacles raised high in the sky did not fall down for a long time, like two towering pine trees.

Li Yisi paused in shaking the person, and she guessed a possibility.

"Are you surrendering?"

"Puff!" The octopus raised his head from the bottom of the sea, tears streaming from his big eyes like a dam bursting, and he nodded like crazy.

If she could make expressions, Liis would definitely be extremely surprised. She had been drifting in the doldrums for so long and had seen many sea kings, but this was the first time she had met one with whom she could communicate.

"Are these... your minions? Can you keep them away?" Liis asked, looking at the sea kings around her.

So many sea kings surfaced to watch the fun, but none of them rushed up to eat people. It seems that there may be differences in status among sea kings.

The octopus nodded with tears in its eyes, opened its mouth wide, and emitted ultrasonic waves that normal people could not hear.

The sea kings scattered like birds and beasts, and the waves splashed up.

Liis found it novel. If she could master this kind of ultrasonic wave, would she be able to control sea kings?

This reminded Liis of the fish-man princess Shirahoshi, who had the ability to summon sea kings by voice and was known as the present incarnation of the ancient weapon Sea King.

From the moment she learned that the sea kings were surrendering, Liis slowed down the speed of the water blade in its body. Seeing that all the sea kings had run away, she stopped the golden marrow.

"You can do some hard labor and take us out of the doldrums." Liis ordered the sea kings.

The sea kings looked up into the distance, and did not move for a long time. One could barely see an aggrieved expression on the octopus's head.

Liis turned around and saw the heavy rain in the distance.

"Then wait until the rain stops," Liis said, "and then stay here and protect us."

The octopus nodded continuously.

Seeing this ferocious behemoth, as big as an island, being submissive, the crew felt as if they were in another world.

"From the Grand Line across the Calm Belt to the South China Sea... there's no doubt about it, he's definitely a top-tier powerhouse... I'm afraid he must have at least the same strength as a pirate with a 30 million bounty..." The captain guessed based on his own knowledge.

The most powerful criminal in the South Sea with the highest bounty is probably Tyrant Bear of the Solbe Kingdom... But that can't be generalized with ordinary people. It is said that the World Government intends to recruit him to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

The captain walked over to Liis and was about to thank her when the blonde girl looked up at him first: "Are you planning to go to Upside Down Mountain?"

"Upside-down mountain? No..."

The doldrums alone were so deadly, how could the Upside Down Mountain even be a problem? The captain shook his head in horror.

"Well, we have to go our separate ways here," Liis said.

The captain held his breath. Is this the efficiency of the strong?

There was no unnecessary nonsense or pleasantries, and the conversation ended in just a few words.

They waited for a while, and the storm in the distance, where the sky and the sea were one, gradually subsided, and the terrifying sea storm became calm.

The octopus pulled the boat with one tentacle and rolled up Liis's fishing boat with the other tentacle, swimming slowly towards the South China Sea, fearing that the passengers would give it bad reviews.

After reaching the seashore, it finally put down a few boats and looked at the tiny Liis with pleading eyes.

"Aren't you going to keep going? Is there any reason why you can't leave the doldrums?" Liis asked, looking up.

The octopus nodded, confirming Liis's guess.

"Well, I thought we finally had someone who could tow the boat," Liis sighed.

It seems that the high-intensity magic training has to continue.

After getting Liis's permission, the octopus retreated back into the sea as if to escape. Liis said goodbye to the captains and then jumped back into her fishing boat.

Liis hadn't even bothered to exchange her name with them; it was just a chance encounter. Everyone on the boat watched Liis swimming on the waves, and they calmed down.

"This is truly a day worth remembering for a lifetime." The captain swallowed hard and gave the order to the crew, "Set sail! The king must be impatient!"

……

Liis held up the sail and she could finally rest.

"Master." Quiet Hassan appeared behind her, holding a map in her hand. "It looks like... there's only one inhabited island between here and Upside Down Mountain."

NO.46. Heavenly Gold

Although there are occasionally human gathering points in the doldrums, Liis has never encountered any along the way. She can't wait to find a human gathering point to rest.

Compared to the Grand Line, the Four Seas is as peaceful as a novice village for Liis. As long as she doesn't encounter those monsters, she can walk around here freely.

It’s just that being low-key is a virtue. Before becoming invincible, it’s better to let the heroes fight in the open first.

The town closest to Upside Down Mountain is Stowe. There is nothing special about it. There are countless towns and islands like this in the world, and they have become prosperous because of their unique geographical location.

Liis put down the nautical chart, adjusted the mast, and headed towards the target at full speed.

……

The Kingdom of Bey is one of the member states of the World Government, although as a "kingdom", their actual territory is not vast.

A tattered black sailboat was swaying towards the port of the Bey capital. The ship looked weathered, especially the scratches on the hull, which looked like it had been pierced by something heavy.

The wet crew members got off the ship one after another. They were in a daze, and just by looking at them from a distance, one could feel how brutal the voyage they had endured was.

Although they were tired, the king's mission was the most important, and they followed the welcoming envoys to the palace without stopping.

The king sat on the throne with a tired expression. He looked at Captain Delhi, who was kneeling in tattered clothes in front of him. For a moment, he didn't know whether to ask about his safety or inquire about his mission.

"Sir Delhi... has the gold from heaven been delivered?" Finally, he decided to ask the most important question first.

"We didn't have time to deliver it to Mary Geoise, but we did hand it over to the Celestial Dragons," the captain said with his head down.

“…” The king understood the hidden meaning. He had heard that some celestial dragons had recently come to the South China Sea for tourism.

In other words, the Heavenly Gold that was supposed to be sent to Mary Geoise was snatched away by the Celestial Dragons.

Even though the gold in heaven is meant for the Celestial Dragons to squander, the meaning of handing it over to the World Government and to a Celestial Dragon is different.

"Have you presented our request to him?" asked the king hopefully.

The captain closed his eyes heavily. "The Celestial Dragons don't want to talk to us, but I have told the captain of his guard... With all due respect, Your Majesty, I have seen the morals of the Celestial Dragons, and I don't think it will be of any use."

“…” The king held his forehead in pain.

Due to the continuous and increasingly severe floods and earthquakes, famine occurred in various parts of the kingdom and the people lived in poverty. In order to ease the pressure, the king reduced taxes in the past few years.

However, the Kingdom of Bey was not prosperous in either grain production or trade, and the surrounding countries did not believe that they had the ability to repay their debts. As a result, the kingdom's finances were in deficit, and it was even difficult to pay the Heavenly Gold that was an obligation of a member state of the World Government.

This caused serious dissatisfaction among the World Government. After repeated urging for tax payment failed, they announced the blockade of several of the Kingdom of Bey's member state privileges.

The result was as if it was expected. Not long after the World Government imposed the punishment, the powerful neighboring country immediately launched an aggressive war against the Kingdom of Bey.

War is a disaster that burns money, let alone the disaster that is now happening in the Kingdom of Bey. After several attempts to resist or negotiate failed, the king had no choice but to compromise with the World Government, increase taxes, sell off royal property, and barely save enough to pay the overdue Heavenly Gold in order to obtain mediation from the World Government.

The result can only be described as extremely unlucky. Captain Delhi, who was responsible for escorting Tianshangjin, met a Tianlong person who happened to be in the South China Sea on the way, and the huge sum of money was wasted.

"What should we do... Is it that the gods are determined to destroy our country?" The king had already sold his crown. He banged the back of his head on the throne, his face filled with pain.

Reducing taxes to protect the people resulted in the disaster of war, and then raising taxes again to resolve the war, but in the end, nothing was achieved.

"Your Majesty..." Captain Derry recalled the petite figure he met in the doldrums and spoke with determination, "We still have one last solution..."

……

After arriving at the port and paying the entry fee, Liis folded the sails and went onto the dock.

This is the town closest to the Upside-Down Mountain in the entire South China Sea, known as Sto Town. The merchant ships coming and going prove its prosperity.

Liis walked on the streets full of human breath. She took a few slow steps at first, then ran happily, skipping into the town like a little loli of her age.

After drifting in the foggy doldrums for nearly half a month, occasionally coming ashore and encountering only wild beasts, I felt an indescribable excitement as I returned to human society.

The sight of the blonde loli running happily attracted the attention of passers-by, especially when they saw her pretty face that was beyond this world, which made Ben, who was feeling irritated at work, relax a lot.

Stowe is a very standard town. The not-so-wide road has a paved sidewalk with stones, and exquisite houses are stationed on both sides. At the same time, the naval branch deep in the town can be seen from a distance.

Liis found a hotel in town that looked like it had good cooking and booked herself a room.

After all, she wasn't a pirate, so she didn't have to worry about being suddenly arrested while staying in a hotel. However, the childishness that could be seen on her face due to her age still made it difficult for her to book a room.

"By the way, is there any celebration going on here?" After booking the room, Liis asked the clerk at the counter.

On her way here, she saw that the streets of the town were cleaned extremely well. There were even people climbing ladders to put flowers on the roofs on both sides of the road.

After hearing Liis's question, the clerk's face froze. She replied with a wandering look, "Nothing...it's just that the new mayor is about to take office. You've come at the perfect time, young lady...just be careful and don't go out on the streets until tomorrow afternoon."

This made Liis feel confused. It seemed that the new mayor was not a simple character.

However, the Navy branch is right in front of us and will be stationed in such a key transportation location. I believe that the people in it are not ordinary people, and the new mayor should not be a criminal who robs the town.

However, Li Yisi still knew the principle that less trouble is worse than more. After all, she would rest for a night and complete the system task tomorrow, so she shouldn't get into any trouble.

Having satisfied her curiosity, Liis went up the stairs. She couldn't wait to take a shower. Although she had learned the cleaning spell on the way, she always had the illusion that she couldn't wash clean.

She specially brought out the little yellow duck she used for bathing at home just for this moment.

NO.47. What bad luck

After taking a shower and eating, Liis returned to her room, closed the curtains, and fell headfirst onto the bed in the hotel.

Compared to the cabin of a fishing boat, the boat on land is full of stability and security, and I am still a little uncomfortable falling asleep.

After tossing and turning in bed for a long time, Li Yisi finally fell into a drowsy sleep. At this moment, a thunder-like sound of a gong suddenly rang out.

Liis shuddered and woke up from her bed.

Serenity slowly materialized beside her, the skeletal mask in the shadows seeming to hover in mid-air.

What is this...

Li Yisi climbed out of bed, walked to the window in a daze, slightly pulled up a corner of the curtain, and went online to the street.

It was completely dark, and it felt like it was already around midnight. Normal people would be resting at this time.

However, the streets were bustling with activity. A large group of people in black were marching in goose-step, with gong players playing disturbing music at the front.

The group of people surrounded a giant who was crawling on his knees. On the giant's back sat a fat man in a space suit.

Liis recognized this guy's identity at a glance. He was the most disgusting group in the entire pirate world, the world's noble Celestial Dragons.

The Celestial Dragon sitting on the giant slave turned his head casually, but happened to meet the eyes of Liis behind the window, and then he was stunned.

"No way, don't disgust me..." Li Yisi immediately pulled the curtains.

But the Tianlong people outside were dumbfounded. Their heads did not bend back as they moved forward, and their ugly, fat faces showed a stupid expression that matched their appearance.

"What's wrong with you, Kokoro Sheng?" The servant under the giant's mount noticed that the Celestial Dragon was staring at one place.

"God...God...Angel!" Kokoro Sheng raised his hand and pointed at the hotel.

The servant immediately understood what he meant. He calmed the Celestial Dragon and then quietly retreated.

Soon after, the servants and a group of bodyguards kicked open the door of the inn, snatched away every female creature they saw, and set the whole house on fire.

On the street, the Tianlong people had already walked far away. The flames lit up half the sky and even showed signs of spreading to other houses.

Everyone hid in the house, not daring to breathe, and prayed for these poor people in their hearts.

The Celestial Dragons' bodyguards surrounded a group of spoils and advanced with military-like quality.

They didn't know which angel the Tianlong people were talking about, but as long as they took them all away, there would definitely be one that was it.

Just as they were dancing in the street, a petite figure stood in front of them.

Liis was covered in a green cloak and had a skull mask on her face, standing in front of everyone.

The bodyguards stopped.

"Hey, where did you come from, little brat? This is a team that is going to pay tribute to the mayor of this town, the great world noble Kokoro Sheng!" The servant stood at the front and scolded arrogantly.

"Mayor? Can the Celestial Dragons have their own territory?" The voice behind the mask could not be identified as male or female.

"Hehe... that's Kokoro Sage! He bought this town for four billion berries, which is four times more than the town itself costs!" The servant thought of the wealth of the Celestial Dragons, as if it were his own. "Ah! How generous!"
