Chapter 204 Pirate 40K: WAAAGH!!!

A fierce boarding battle is taking place in a sea area in the East China Sea.

A giant, green, humanoid creature, four meters tall, leaped high from its own uniquely designed ship, traversing a distance of over ten meters, and landed on the enemy's pirate ship.

The green orc, as broad and thick as a tank, raised his giant axe and with a single horizontal slash, cut many pirates who were trying to drive him into the sea in half. His severed intestines were scattered all over the deck, and blood spread from the wooden planks, like a pool of blood.

"WAAAAAAGH!"

With a loud battle cry from the vanguard greenskin, countless battle cries echoed from the strange warships behind, followed by a large number of slightly smaller green orcs who jumped aboard.

"WAAAAAAGH!"

"WAAAAAAGH!"

"WAAAAAAGH!"

"WAAAAAAGH!"

"WAAAAAAGH!"

Countless shouts of "WAAAGH" echoed across the sea and sky. These green-skinned creatures seemed to be empowered by the war cry, becoming even more frenzied, with their strength and speed significantly amplified, and their skin becoming impervious to blades and bullets.

At that moment, a giant rhinoceros ran out of the captain's cabin of the pirate ship, its horn gleaming coldly, and charged toward the leader of the green-skinned crew. It was clearly a Devil Fruit user.

The green-skinned man revealed a fanatical smile.

"This shrimp has some strength and can even transform, I like it!"

Greenskin neither dodged nor avoided, but threw away his giant axe, grabbed the rhinoceros's horn, and with a sudden burst of strength, pressed down on the rhinoceros, which was like a chariot, and smashed its huge, heavy head through the deck with this monstrous force.

The orc grinned excitedly and swung his enormous, millstone-sized fist, smashing it hard into the rhinoceros's right eye.

The immense force of the punch crushed the rhinoceros's brow bone and right eyeball, causing the rhinoceros to cry out in pain and transform into an ugly pirate two meters tall with a large black beard.

Seeing their leader's prowess, the group of orc lads shouted "Awesome!"

The orc leader roughly ripped off the pirate captain's right arm and threw it to the orc boy next to him.

"Give this guy's flesh and blood to the shaman, let it merge into the creation pool, and we'll have another awesome transformation!"

"Celebrate, boys! WAAAGH!"

"WAAAAAAGH!"

"WAAAAAAGH!"

"WAAAAAAGH!"

With each shout of "WAAAGH!" from the Greenskins, all life on the pirate ship was slaughtered. The Greenskins had no need for prisoners. They transported the drinks, food, and weapons back to their own warships, then quickly dismantled the pirate ship into various materials, and reassembled it in the sea, attempting to make their warships bigger, stronger, and even more "WAAAGH!"

On an island in the East China Sea, Loran lay on the fine white sand beach, leisurely basking in the sun.

Behind him, in the island's forest, large numbers of Greenskins were actively spreading spores, crafting weapons, and building warships. Every moment, Greenskins would form warbands, attempting to set sail.

In this world, Loran's target was a pirate who was being pursued by the Navy. After being captured, Loran successfully possessed the pirate and then wiped out all the Navy members who had arrested him.

This pirate is also a Devil Fruit user, possessing a Paramecia-type Mushroom Fruit, whose ability is to grow all sorts of mushrooms.

Loran found this ability very powerful. Mushrooms, to put it simply, are fungi, a type of life. The ability to nurture and create life—isn't that a powerful ability?

But this is the world of One Piece, which is not suitable for the development of a farming protagonist. This world is all about "war, war, war"!

Therefore, Loran planned to put on a show, combining the power of the Mushroom Fruit with the wisdom in his mind to give the world a little shock.

As is widely known, the green-skinned orcs in the Warhammer world are essentially a type of psionic mushroom, or moss that has become sentient.

Orcs reproduce in an extremely efficient way: upon reaching adulthood, they unconsciously release large numbers of spores, which grow wherever they encounter soil, reproducing asexually. Moreover, these fungal communities possess a self-consistent ecosystem.

Once its spores enter the topsoil, they begin to produce fungal hyphae, absorbing basic nutrients and exchanging genetic information with other colonies through the hyphae. The first to emerge from the soil is the green mushroom, followed by Squigs and goblins that will crawl out from under the mushrooms in batches. Orcs take longer to mature, and during this time, the goblins will keep the protein-rich Squigs in captivity to prepare as food for the orcs.

Although all orcs continuously release reproductive spores throughout their lives, the most significant and abundant release occurs when an orc is injured or dies. In other words, combat is essentially part of the reproductive process for orcs. And like all fungi, these spores prefer to obtain nutrients from decaying matter, such as corpses.

Thanks to this physiological characteristic, orc invasions are extremely troublesome for any race, because their numbers can grow exponentially in a short period of time, eventually becoming a planet-destroying swarm!

Loran wanted to create such a biological weapon, intending to conquer the entire pirate planet with his green-skinned army and then use it to enter space. The pirate world clearly has relatively advanced interstellar civilizations; Enel had encountered interstellar pirates before.

Green Skin's design is based on the knowledge in his mind, and the Mushroom Fruit is a superb gene-editing scalpel that can help him arbitrarily modify the genetic material of fungal spores.

During the design process for the green skin, Loran traveled all over the world and referenced many unique races in the pirate world.

For example, Loran extracted the bloodline factors of the fish-men, giving the green-skinned people the ability to breathe underwater, regulate internal pressure, swim, and have an affinity for and control over water.

Then Loran went to Elbaf and extracted the bloodline factor of the giants, giving the greenskins their tall stature, powerful bodies, and monstrous strength.

Loran also went to Wano Country to ambush King, extracting some of the Lunaria bloodline factors, which gave the Greenskins a strong ability to adapt to various environments.

The bloodline factors of the Oni race are also within Loran's collection scope, and the Oni bloodline gives the Greenskins a powerful fighting instinct.

......................

In summary, the Greenskins can be described as fungal spore creatures that combine the best bloodline factors of various races on the Pirate Planet. Loran also studied the mysteries of Devil Fruits and designed a pirate version of the "WAAAAGH" force field for the Greenskins, modeled after Haki.

According to Vegapunk, Devil Fruits seem to be a collection of human will, but he can reproduce the abilities of these fruits through his lineage factors.

In Loran's eyes, the effects of Devil Fruits were similar to the green-skinned WAAAGH field. This kind of Devil Fruit field could distort the laws of physics and would change according to the user's subjective consciousness.

That's why Devil Fruit abilities are so unpredictable, and their development relies heavily on the user's imagination. This is why someone like King can develop techniques like the "I think power" of the "Soldier Emperor."

Haki is also the materialized existence of human will or "qi". The reason why powerful Haki can restrain Devil Fruits is that the human will field cancels out the "devil force field" of the Devil Fruit.

The reason why seawater or seastone can affect ability users is that the unique component of seastone, keratin particles (PYROBROIN), generates a special magnetic field. Strictly speaking, this component is somewhat similar to NaCl, which is sea salt, but they are different in microstructure.

These particles release a unique, weak magnetic field that interferes with the normal functioning of the bloodline factor within a Devil Fruit, and can even affect the bioelectricity within a living organism, causing the user to become powerless.

Loran's "WAAAGH" field has greater potential than Haki and Devil Fruits. If Haki is likened to psionic energy, then Loran's "WAAAGH" field is like a green-skinned local psionic network.

This "WAAAGH" force field possesses the idealistic characteristics of Haki, capable of gathering all the Haki of the green skins or the psionic energy of the pirates, thereby comprehensively amplifying all the attributes of the green skins. The higher the WAAAGH, the stronger the Haki representing will, the more powerful the "WAAAGH" force field becomes, and the more formidable the green skins become.

This "WAAAGH" force field can also help Greenskin integrate the Devil Fruit's Devil Force Field as a module. Previously, Greenskin obtained the flesh and blood of that Rhino Fruit user pirate in order to extract his bloodline factor, so that the Greenskin Shaman could use the reincarnation pool to record the Devil Fruit's force field into Greenskin's "WAAAGH" force field.

In this way, all the green-skinned creatures can obtain any recorded Devil Fruit ability from the "WAAAGH" field if they want to.

The more "WAAAGH" the Devil Fruit's power, the stronger it becomes. Moreover, the "WAAAGH" field perfectly inherits the Devil Fruit's power of thought, allowing it to arbitrarily distort reality with the help of the green-skinned Devil Fruit's thought.

At the same time, Loran also stuffed a lot of technical information into the Greenskins' genes, which allowed the Greenskins to acquire knowledge from their lineage factors and become one tech master after another as long as they continued to develop the "WAAAGH" force field.

After several rounds of adjustments, the green-skinned trains have now largely met Loran's requirements, and it's time for them to go on a rampage across the world.

Chapter 205 Pirate 40K: The Green-Skinned Expedition

"Fight! It's fun!"

"WAAAAAGH!"

"WAAAAAGH!"

The Greenskins' battle cries echoed across the sea as a sailboat made of massive logs was sunk by the Greenskins' powerful cannon fire.

The people on the ship attempted a final boarding maneuver, but after a fifteen-meter-tall ancient green-skinned captain emerged from behind the group of green-skinned boys, they were all sunk into the sea.

"Coo coo coo! I... am... a Devil Fruit user!"

Blackbeard was submerged in the water, the power of the ocean leaving him powerless. Meanwhile, several of his companions who hadn't eaten Devil Fruits, such as Burgess who was always being fed haha, were being held down in the sea by a 6-meter-tall green-skinned first mate to wake them up.

"Boss, this shrimp seems to be a power user, huh?" A young boatman looked at the black-bearded man who was trying his best to generate darkness from his hands, but under the suppression of the sea, the wisp of darkness was as thin as the smoke exhaled from a cigarette.

"Cut off one of his arms, upload this shrimp's bloodline factors to the WAAAAGH network, and then sink him into the sea!" the fifteen-meter-tall green-skinned captain declared.

"Yes, Captain!" The young naval warrior accepted the captain's order.

And so, Blackbeard, the future Yonko, one of the initiators of the era of relying on one's father's connections, lost his life in the first half of the Grand Line, a life that can be described as fleeting.

"Quack! Boss, there's a navy ship up ahead." A green-skinned lookout reported to the green-skinned captain.

"Oh?" The green-skinned captain's eyes lit up.

"Boys! Chase after them! Where there are navy shrimps, there's bound to be a fierce battle!" The green-skinned captain waved his hand and gave the order.

"WAAAAAAGH!"

Amidst the roars of numerous green-skinned soldiers, the warships seemed to receive an invisible boost, instantly reaching full speed and closely following the naval vessels.

At this moment, an unprecedented war is breaking out in Alabasta.

The royal army of 30 versus the rebel army of 70—this unprecedented war engulfs this ancient land. The drought unleashed by the dancing powder threatens the lives of everyone in Alabasta; commoners and nobles alike are all so vulnerable in the face of drought.

These people all share a common enemy: Neferutali Cobra, the 12th king of the Kingdom of Alabasta. His abuse of dancing powder caused a nationwide drought, plunging the entire nation of Alabasta into misery.

However, this was merely the surface. The real culprit behind the "Dancing Powder Drought" incident was the notorious pirate Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, who was entrenched in the country. In order to steal the country and obtain the legendary ancient weapon—the most evil battleship in history, Pluton—he used Dancing Powder extensively and framed the Nefertari royal family for the crime.

The reason Crocodile was able to do this was because he controlled a huge criminal organization—Baroque Works—and an agent who could imitate the appearance of others at will, Mr. 2—Bon Clay, a user of the Imitation Fruit.

Crocodile's schemes had initially gone very smoothly, successfully igniting public anger and leaving the king speechless. The rebel army was now on the verge of storming the capital. Even if the king were proven innocent at this point, it would be too late; the arrow was already on the crossbow, ready to be released.

This is a clash between a million-strong army, a rebellion, a march on Kyoto—how could just anyone jump out and stop it? (P.S.: To be honest, Oda's plot design skills at this point were really good (but it could also be thanks to the editors))

Do the rebels who have gathered here really think they can get away with this by betting that the royal family, which they once pushed to the brink, won't retaliate after they withdraw?

Even if the current king is magnanimous and doesn't mind, what about the next king?

Princess Vivi? Who knows what her true nature is like? We're not like you, Kosha, we haven't had a childhood friendship with the princess and know her inside and out. Kosha understands this very well, so even when Vivi came to him to explain everything, Kosha told her that there was no possibility of retreating at this point!

The eventual cessation of the war was a miracle, resulting from a confluence of factors.

But the greenskins aren't interested in happy endings. They want to hack and slash, to shoot and blast. They're a race born for battle; battle is everything to them. Only battle can bring them joy! WAAAGH!

Therefore, the Greenskins followed the Navy personnel who were monitoring domestic affairs in Alabasta and responsible for arresting Captain Smoker for illegally crossing the border, and arrived in this country now filled with war.

Sensing the impending battle of the Super WAAAGH, the green-skinned creatures became excited, and soon, many other green-skinned creatures roaming the first half of the Grand Line were also drawn to the scene.

These excited greens attacked the naval warships without warning. We didn't know what enemies or allies were; all we knew was that you looked like you were very capable.

Let's have an exciting, chaotic brawl! WAAAGH!

"Damn it, what are these things?" After saying goodbye to his younger brother Luffy, Fire Fist Ace, who was sailing on the sea in a small boat, saw a green-skinned creature that looked like a small giant rushing towards him.

The opponent's fighting spirit was so obvious that Ace didn't bother to distinguish between friend and foe. Men of the sea, let's fight first!

The fist formed from flames boiled the seawater and slammed it hard into the oncoming green-skinned creature.

"WAAAGH!"

"Fiery Shrimp, you're tough to beat, but I like you!"

A green aura suddenly emanated from Greenskin's body, separating him from the blazing flames. Greenskin then walked on water as if running on land, running towards Ace despite the flames burning beneath his body.

"What the hell! What is this? Green Armament Haki?" Ace stared in disbelief.

The green-skinned creature's leaping attack was already upon him, and Ace gritted his teeth. He couldn't fight it head-on; this was at sea, and he only had a small boat to rely on. If the boat were destroyed, he would be in a very passive position.

The flight power of the Flame-Flame Fruit is not outstanding. The opponent can walk on water, so he is at a complete disadvantage, not to mention that the opponent has a fleet behind him.

"Most importantly, finding Blackbeard to avenge Thatch is the priority!" Ace, unusually rational, unleashed a torrent of flames from beneath his feet, and the entire assault ship shot off like an arrow, carrying Ace swiftly away.

"Don't run, you little devil!" Greenskin panicked when it saw Ace trying to escape. Enraged, it dived into the sea, its fish-man bloodline making it as fast as a warship in the ocean.

"We absolutely can't fight now!" Watching the green-skinned creature move with the agility of a fish-man in the water, Ace was even more certain of his judgment. Who the hell would be so stupid as to try and fight a fish-man fleet head-on at sea?!

"Green fishmen, how strange!" Ace muttered, increasing the output of his flames to get away from this calamity even faster.

Unfortunately, what Ace didn't know was that Blackbeard, whom he had been chasing all along, had just been sunk at sea by his own kind, the green-skinned man in front of him.

Chapter 206 Pirate 40K: Playing Games

Honestly, after creating the Greenskin, all that's left is time to flatten the entire pirate planet.

Loran had absolutely no interest in the so-called Void Century, Laugh Tale, the Poneglyphs, the Great Kingdoms, Joy Boy, or anything like that. Based on the questionable actions of certain people in his past life, Loran always felt that if he were to actually explore these things, he would only get a frustrating result.

To be honest, Loran was terrified of seeing another melodramatic story like "Im kidnaps the citizens of the Great Kingdom, Lord Joy Boy dances naked for a hundred years and ultimately fails, and the citizens of the Great Kingdom are all moved to tears." Put the food away! We've seen enough of this kind of eye-straining plot.

No way! I need to do something too, otherwise I'll be letting down all the resentment I held onto from following comics for so many years in my past life, Loran thought.

Lorraine first strolled into Mary Geoise, thinking he could find plenty of fun there.

He cast a psychological invisibility buff on himself, so even if someone detected him with Observation Haki, they would subconsciously ignore his presence due to psychological effects. This allowed him to wander freely through this magnificent palace complex, built from the blood and sweat of the entire world, as if no one else existed.

Soon, he wandered into Pangaea and saw the "Void Throne" piled with the so-called weapons of the Twenty Kings, symbolizing the equality of all kings. It was also Im's special seat, where she would receive the Five Elders and Cobra and the others in the future.

Seeing this, Loran was a little annoyed!

The great God-Emperor sits on his golden throne, constantly suffering torture. And you, a lowly, unambitious little sister named Im, cowering on the planet's surface, what right do you have to rise and fall as you please? Does sitting on this void throne come without any price?

After some thought, Loran decided to drastically modify the Void Throne.
