Double-transformation: I, Sakura Haruno! Will crush the pirates!

This can no longer be simply described as a provocation; this is a fucking declaration of war!

"Sigh, Sakura-nee, what do you think... is it possible to reconcile?"

Sakura's gaze calmly swept over Ace and the unconscious crew members on the ground. She took a deep breath. "Since things have come to this, let's save them first."

.

.

Milian, the cloud-top port of the mortal realm.

"Um, am I... still alive?"

On the Spade Pirates' ship, the vice-captain Deus gradually awoke.

He then saw that Skar, who had been seriously injured, had been completely healed.

Although still unconscious, all vital signs have stabilized, and her originally pale face has regained a healthy glow.

It looks like Ace successfully got the medicine.

As he pondered this, Deus woke up his other unconscious companions, and the group pushed open the cabin door and went outside.

Then, on the deck, I saw a figure that I could never have imagined, a figure that was like a nightmare.

—Sakura Haruno, the Pirate Emperor and King of the Other Shore!

"Ace... Ace, that... that guy?"

The rest of the Spade Pirates were speechless, their mouths agape. Only Deus, his voice trembling, raised a trembling finger and pointed to the girl next to Ace, whose hands were draped over the gunwale.

"Ah, Deus, you're awake. This... I'm sorry I haven't told you before." Ace's smile was a little awkward. "This is Sakura, my swordsmanship mentor."

"Huh? Eh!!!!"

The gasps of surprise instantly filled the entire Spade Pirate Ship. The crew members stared at Ace with their mouths agape, their eyes bulging out of their sockets, unable to believe what they were seeing.

"That pirate emperor? The legend of the high seas, your mentor? What's going on here?"

A group of Spade Pirates crew members excitedly rushed forward, grabbed Ace by the collar, and rolled around with him.

"Well, I'll tell you about the inside story later, but for now..."

Before Ace could finish speaking, Sakura interrupted him.

"But the important thing now is that you burned my pirate flag!"

Sakura reached into her trench coat, pulled out a freshly printed newspaper, and tossed it in front of the Spade Pirates.

There's no need to even look; it's obvious what title Morgans will use.

"So, young men, what will become of my authority by doing this?"

Chapter 310 Then I'll use you to pay off the debt!

The Black Spade Pirate Ship was deathly silent, and Ace, who had read the newspaper, felt his mouth go dry.

What is this all about!

For the first time, he had a companion he could entrust his life to, and once again, he met Sister Sakura at sea.

Two happy things overlapped, and what should have been a blissful, dreamlike time... But why, why did it turn out like this?

Deus and the others took the newspaper from Ace, gathered together to read the headlines, and finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

The burning of the Other Shore Pirates' flag had a far more profound impact than they had imagined.

As for your question about how a group of people knew about the impact of this event?

Of course, I figured it out from the newspaper article about Morgans overthrowing a country's government in the West Blue with the Revolutionary Army, which was published after the incident of the Other Shore Pirates' flag being burned!

"This is really troublesome," Sakura frowned.

The most troublesome thing about this is that it made the newspapers.

If the Spade Pirates are not dealt with, their actions will be seen as a sign of weakness. In this environment where pirate wolves surround them, Mirian Island will immediately become the target of all ambitious individuals, and the days to come will likely be filled with unrest.

As expected, this is all Morgans' fault. Next time I see him, I'll use my Flame Fist on him!

Above the sky, Leviathan, responsible for managing the entire processing cloud of Milian Island, flapped its wings and landed. In the sea clouds, Fisher Tiger, responsible for managing ships entering and leaving the island, also climbed onto the pirate ship and sat on the bulwark.

The presence of a pirate emperor and two executive-level figures naturally puts immense pressure on the entire Spade Pirates.

"What are we going to do now, Ace kid?" Leviathan said in his usual tone, as if he didn't mind watching the drama unfold.

But in reality, it was she who notified Tiger that he was coming. If things reached a point where there was no room for maneuver, then she and Tiger would step in and take the blame for Sakura!

“I…” Ace gripped the knife in his hand and took a step forward.

He understood that his own willful and reckless behavior had led to all of this.

If only I could have told my companions beforehand... if only I could have contacted Sakura in advance... but unfortunately, reality doesn't offer "if onlys".

Now it's time for him, as the captain, to give everyone an explanation!

"Sister Ying, let me do it..."

"Let me take responsibility for this!" A figure approached Ace and knelt down in front of Sakura.

The newcomer was none other than Deus, Ace's first mate. He raised his hand and held up one index finger, from which a flickering flame rose up.

"I started the fire. I'm a user of the Flame-Flame Fruit, so if you need an explanation, take my life!"

Deus slammed his head heavily on the ground. "But please, you must spare my companion!"

“This guy…” Sakura raised an eyebrow.

It seems that when the two met on Whirlpool Island and shared the Flame-Flame Fruit, Deus ate the Devil Fruit a little faster than Ace and ate it before Ace.

"He's got some backbone," Leviathan whispered quietly to Tiger.

“But it’s an undeniable fact that they’ve provoked us. It’s a real shame to target a young person like that.” Tiger turned to her, looking equally troubled.

"Stop talking nonsense, Deus." Ace took a few steps forward and grabbed him by the collar. "Who gave you permission to act on your own? I am the captain of this ship! I am the one who has to make decisions and sacrifices!"

“But don’t you still have your journey and things you must accomplish?” Deus smiled at him. “From the day I escaped from Whirlpool Island, I decided to help you achieve your dream. Now it’s time for me to do what I should do!”

"Shut up!" Ace gritted his teeth, his pupils trembling. "We're comrades! How am I supposed to reach the final island without your medical skills!"

The two young people started arguing in front of Sakura, their pure and passionate willingness to sacrifice for each other bringing tears to the eyes of the other Spade Pirates members.

"Waaaaah, Captain, First Mate..."

"It's not your fault, it's all our fault!"

"Yes, if anyone has to sacrifice, it's me!"

The members of the Spade Pirates wept and knelt before Sakura, begging her for mercy.

"You brats, do you think this is a shop where you can haggle over prices?" Sakura's eyes narrowed, and her sharp voice echoed.

A hurricane erupted, and countless dark lightning bolts swept across the ship, bombarding every inch of its space with the overwhelming will of a tyrant.

The deck and mast of the pirate ship cracked under the sheer force of the attack, and the Spade Pirates members, unable to withstand its power, fainted instantly.

"And have you two brats forgotten that besides the flag, you also burned down one of my luxury shopping malls!"

Sakura's slightly open mouth emitted white mist as she grabbed Ace and Deuce, one in each hand.

"Wait... Sister Sakura!"

The familiar feeling made Ace's face turn pale. Then, he and Deus felt dizzy and were slammed onto the deck by the overwhelming aura. After coughing up blood, they fell into the cabin below.

"The damage has already been done. As for you brats, hmph." Sakura grinned, revealing a sweet smile, "You'll just have to obediently pay for it with your bodies!"

After saying that, Sakura tilted her head at Leviathan.

Upon receiving the signal from its leader, the Night Sparrow began to swell, transforming into a colossal creature capable of covering the entire pirate ship within mere seconds.

Then the darkness around her materialized and flowed, slowly spreading through the sea clouds to form a swamp, causing the Spade Pirates' ships to sink and be swallowed by the darkness.

"All done, Sakura." Leviathan shrank back to stand on Sakura's shoulder.

He let her grab him and Tiger, and used time-space ninjutsu to leave the port.

.

.

After a long period of darkness, when Ace's eyes regained light, he found himself in a huge underground space.

Looking around, and seeing that Deus and the others were also safe and sound, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Rubbing the bruises from Sakura's punch, Ace got up and began exploring his surroundings.

For some reason, he felt like several eyes were watching him, so he turned around and roused Deus. "Hey, Deus, light a fire for light!"

"Can't you be a little more nervous? We've been captured by that pirate emperor!" Deus coughed forcefully a few times, coughing up stagnant blood.

"Don't worry, Sakura won't harm me." Ace shrugged at him. "Besides, with her strength and status, what do I have that she would covet?"

Hearing this, Deus shook his head helplessly and had no choice but to raise his arm as the captain ordered, lighting a cluster of flames and burning it to its maximum extent to illuminate the entire underground space.

They then discovered that two enormous figures were crouching in the corner, their eyes fixed on the two of them.

One of them was about fifty meters tall, with a blue face and fangs, while the other was twenty meters tall with long, snow-white hair and a delicate face.

More importantly, they had just seen the face of that twenty-meter-tall giant outside.

Ace's eyes widened, and he exclaimed:

"Huh? Sakura-nee?"

Chapter 311 The Joining of the Great Hammer Chapter

"So that's how it is. You're the little devils Mother was talking about who need to be disciplined."

Even when Risaku, who is a full twenty meters tall, speaks gently, she is like a storm in the eyes of Ace and the others.

"Looks like you've got something to do again. You've really been stuck with a mother who likes to boss people around," the fierce-looking ancient giant bent down, and as he spoke, a huge storm arose.

It's hard to imagine that such a huge creature actually has a pretty good temper, and even showed excessive tolerance for the origins that Rissakura had told him.

“It’s only right to help your mother. And do you want to go up to see her?” Rissou asked.

Seeing the enormous ancient giant nod, she waved her arm, and the earth and stone of the underground laboratory dome opened as if operated by a machine, and the rock pillars on the ground rose up, sending the ancient giant out.

After doing all this, Riyo crossed her arms and came to Ace and the others. "Alright, it's your turn now!"

Ace looked up, his gaze intense. "Although we can roughly deduce the result, I still have to ask: is your mother... Sister Sakura?"

The question format conveys the boy's affirmative tone.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Ryouki's expression was very calm.

"Cough... I just didn't expect that Sakura-nee would have such a big daughter, and a giant at that." Ace's eyebrows twitched.

The other members of the Spade Pirates, who were on their deathbeds, suddenly sat up and pricked up their ears to eavesdrop.

After all, this is gossip about the Pirate Emperor; even if you die after hearing it, it's worth the ticket price.

"So who is your father? Can you tell me?" Ace grinned and leaned closer, hooking his elbow around Sakura's leg as he tried to get information from her.

“I don’t know, I don’t have a father,” Risaka replied truthfully.

"Hiss!" Ace and the Spade members gasped.

I really underestimated you, Sakura-nee. I never expected that you, who usually seem so calm and collected, would be so playful in private.

While we're all pirates and free to do whatever we want, you can't go so far as to not even be able to determine the biological father of your child!

"You've really had a hard time." Ace patted Sakura's foot reassuringly. "By the way, what did you say Sakura-nee asked you to do?"

"Hmm? I remember now, I almost forgot what my mother told me." Ryou raised her fist and gently tapped her head.

Then, sharp claws and teeth extended from her body, and a thick beast tail drooped to the ground.

“Mother said that your Haki is too weak, and you are not mature enough as members of the Other Shore Pirates, so she asked me to help you… Okay! Okay! Train! You!” With her arms wrapped in armor belts that could cause internal damage, Ri Sakura stomped her toes on the ground.

"No, when did we become members of the Other Shore Pirates..." Ace pouted and retorted.

But they discovered that the other party had already dived underground as if swimming, moving quickly through the soil and rushing towards their location.

"Oh no! It's a Mythical Zoan-type! Scatter!"
