Smiling, Gasparde struck the injured body of Shuraiya, which was at his feet.

"What's wrong with you? Didn't you mean to kill me? You don't even deserve to be my toy."

Remaining unsheathed, Shuraiya did not even find the strength to stand up.

"DIE!" Gasparde yelled, getting ready to crush his head with his foot.

"GASPARDE!"

"Hmm?" The pirate wondered, turning around.

Seeing a pirate ship approaching him, he was surprised to recognize it.

"The clown ? "

"Who are these guys?" Wanted to know a pirate.

"Survivors of the race?"

"Hey, look! There's a Navy ship following them."

"Is this a joke ? "

"Pull ! "

Immediately, cannon fire charged at the Buggy pirate.

"Again?" The clown frightened.

"I'm taking care of it. "

Positioning himself in front of the clown, Willy cracked his knuckles.

"I have a score to settle with these guys."

"Eh ? "

Then suddenly, simply holding out his hand in front of him, Willy managed to grab the ball between his fingers, before exerting enormous pressure on it which made it explode.

Seeing this, several people opened their mouths so wide that they touched the ground.

"He stopped a cannonball with one hand."

"He's not a fishman for nothing."

Then starting to target the ship, the Buggy pirates used their cannons.

"They are going to know the power of the Buggy ball."

Immediately firing, the pirates saw three cannon balls hitting the side of the boat, damaging it.

"Yeah! The target has been hit."

Looking behind him, Magi asserted.

"Captain, the Navy is coming."

"Ok, let's go our separate ways!" Buggy decided. "Kuro, with me! We're going to destroy Gasparde's boat! The others, move the boat away from the Navy's! With a little luck, he will try to attack Gasparde! But if he doesn't ... Morgan, Zala, try to stop him! And you, Megumin, don't do anything! "

"What? But why?"

"Just wait and watch! If ouru manages to defeat Gasparde, you will use your magic to ouru get rid of the Navy! And if the Navy gets beaten, you will attack Gasparde."

"And how are we going there?" Kuro wanted to know.

"I can use my magic tricks to make you disappear and teleport you there!" Magi asserted, grabbing his cloak.

However, before he could do anything, he saw Willy grab Buggy and Kuro.

"What ... ? "

"Hey, you have two seconds to rest," Kuro announced.

Ignoring him, the fishman made his muscles grow, before throwing the two men like cannonballs. Finding himself screaming in fear, Buggy flew over the water, before ending up above Gasparde's boat.

"What…?" A pirate wondered, finding himself in front of the clown.

Feeling his nose bump against his forehead, Buggy felt a stream of blood pour from his nostrils, as the pirate fell to the ground, unconscious.

"My nose! My nose! Fishman jerk."

"What…?" Several pirates wondered, seeing Buggy. "How did he get here?"

"Hey! It's the clown from the other time."

"You're right! I admit it."

Immediately, the pirates aimed their weapons at Buggy.

"This time you're dead."

Immediately, the clown froze in fear, seeing dozens of guns aimed at him. However, the pirates froze, hearing another voice.

"Geez, you are still so lousy."

This time, the pirates began to back away in fear, recognizing Kuro, who was quietly seated on the body of a pirate he had just slashed.

"This guy ... watch out, he's mega dangerous."

"It's Kuro ... a pirate with a bounty of 37 million berries."

"37 ... we're going to get killed if we fight him."

Suddenly the boat began to shake again.

"What ... ? "

Suddenly emerging from the water, Willy could be seen, with a rudder in his hand.

"My greetings, Gasparde!"

"You?" The man roared, thinking he had already killed him. "What are you doing with the rudder of my ship?"

"I just did a little inspection of the hull of your boat! I took the liberty of tearing this piece of wood and making a hole in the hull! Right now, water must be pouring out, dump there. "

"What ? "

"The motherfucker! He's sinking the ship."

"And without the rudder, you can't steer."

"Willy… what are you doing with this guy?" Gasparde wanted to know.

"I came to take your head."

"Because you really think you can kill me?"

"Anyway, I'm not going to be shy about doing it."

Simply continuing to smile, Gasparde ordered.

"Guys ... kill them."


Hearing many explosions, James looked uneasy.

"Meowth, hurry up."

"I do what I can." Retorted the pokemon.

being in front of Stufful's cage, he had inserted one of his claws into the lock of his cage. However, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to unlock the cage.

"It's impossible! We need the key of this cage."

"These guys don't have it," Jessie told him. "The one who has it must have it is Gasparde."

"No way to go see him to steal it."

"But we're not going to leave Stuffus here anyway."

Suddenly, the sound of another explosion was heard, that by a wall which gave way. Passing through the breach, liters of water began to rush into the room.

"What…?" The Rocket team wondered. " The boat sinks. "

Suddenly tilting, the boat tilted the room, which almost knocked the trio off balance.

"We have to get out of here." Meowth cried, digging his claws into the ground, to keep from falling. "We will drown if we stay here."

Starting to follow him, Jessie saw James trying to push the bars out of Stufful's cage.

"Stufful! Stufful!" Cried the pokemon who started to panic.

"Don't worry! I'll get you out."

"James! Hurry!"

"I wouldn't leave him behind," James retorted.

Suddenly more water engulfed the room making Stufful and James disappear under the water.

"JAMES!"

Opening his eyes to notice he was underwater, the man saw Stufful, gesturing in his cage, while he had no way to breathe. Seeing this, James immediately grabbed a pokeball and put his arm through the bars of the cage. However, since Stufful didn't touch the pokeball, nothing happened.

"Stufful, touch the pokeball! Touch the pokeball."

Remaining at first motionless, the pokemon suddenly ends up swimming towards the pokeball and touch it with his muzzle. Immediately, the object opened and locked Stufful inside. Immediately removing his arm from the cage, James saw the pokeball open a second later, showing that the capture had not been made.

But James didn't care about that detail. Seeing Stufful appear beside him, out of his cage, James took him in his hands and swam to the surface. Exhaling as soon as his head came out of the water, the man then hoisted the pokemon up so he could do the same.

"JAMES!" Meowth and Jessie shouted, seeing him reappear.

Simply smiling, hugging Stufful against him, the man asserted.

"We can leave. "


Screaming in agony, several pirates were already on the ground. Trembling, other men looked around, vainly trying to catch a glimpse of their enemy. Screaming, a man felt wounds open in his abdomen, before collapsing to the ground.

"How does this man manage to move so fast?"

"We have to find a way to stop him, or we'll all get killed." A man asserted, before being slashed.

Kicking them one by one, Kuro took pleasure in seeing them dying in pools of blood, as he moved so fast that no one had a chance to spot him. Yet the instant he was about to strike another pirate, he was amazed to feel his metal claws strike other metal claws, stopping him immediately.

"Hmm?" Kuro wondered.

Letting a few drops of blood flow out of his mouth, Needless faced the former pirate captain, despite the injuries Shuraiya had caused him.

"Gasparde's right hand? What an honor to be the man who will kill you."

Trying to lower his arm towards him, Needless saw him dodge his attack, before slashed him in the abdomen. Spitting blood, Needless fell to one knee. Still, refusing to give up, he turned and slashed the air, as soon as he heard footsteps. Stopping in extremis, Kuro felt the ends of Needless's claws slash the top of his shirt.

Not in any way scared by this, Kuro lifted his foot and kicked Needless's jaw, who took two steps back. Having trouble catching his breath, the man continued to keep his balance.

"Awesome! You still stand tall! I congratulate you on that."

Only able to growl, Needless raised his arm in an attempt to hit him. However, he froze, feeling the tip of the green spear pierce him from behind. At first motionless, he ended up turning around to see Gasparde, who had transformed his arm into a long green spear.

"That ... Captain?"

"You know the rules, Needless! I don't want any weak in my crew."

Removing the tip of the spear from the body of his former second, Gasparde watched him collapse to the ground. Seeing this, several of his men began to swallow their saliva.

"If you don't want the same fate, you better get rid of this trio quickly."

"AYE!" His crew shouted.

But already two people fell to the ground, after being struck by Willy's fists.

"Don't worry Gasparde! You too will experience defeat."

"Didn't you understand the difference between you and me?"

Suddenly, a hand, with daggers between its fingers, flew towards Gasparde and managed to strike his abdomen.

"I got you." Buggy asserted;

However, he lost his smile, seeing a strange green jelly coming out of Gasparde's body, instead of his blood.

"That ... ? "

"Gasparde's devil fruit!" A pirate asserted. "The fruit of the candy."

"Candy?" Kuro repeated.

Managing to heal his wounds, Gasparde looked at Buggy before affirming.

"A bounty of only 15 million? Everyone thinks you are a pathetic pirate, but the fact that you managed to follow me this far proves otherwise! However, could you explain to me why you are here? ? "

Crushing Shuraiya's arm to make him scream, he questioned him.

"Do you want to end up like this man?"

"Shuraiya?" Buggy wondered. "What is he doing here?"

"He tried to kill me! Here's the result!"

Seeing that Gasparde had no injuries, Buggy got scared.

"The pirate exterminator got slaughtered? Damn it! I have no chance of defeating this guy."

Hearing cannon noises, Gasparde looked in the direction of the Navy boat which was approaching them.

"The navy? After the present I just gave them, do they dare to attack me?"

"Motherfucker! Are you talking about us? How dare you cheat on us?"

"It was just a hobby!" Gasparde declared. "I am constantly bored on this ocean, surrounded by these ridiculous pirates and their grotesque dream! What counts in reigning is pure strength! Having sent so many ships to be destroyed in is the proof! I am the man who deserves to rule these seas. "

Suddenly transforming his arms into long green spears, he directed them towards Buggy.

"And assholes like you who don't understand that, deserve to die."

Screaming in fear, Buggy couldn't react in time. Yet he saw the spears being cut to pieces. Running at full speed, Kuro then directed his claws at Gasparde. Seeing him in time, the man tilted his head to the side and avoided being sliced. However, as Kuro appeared behind him, the captain ran his hand over his cheek to find he was bleeding.

"Impossible ! "

"A few months ago, some elastic brat jerk pulverized my claws on my right glove and I had to fix them! However, instead of iron, these claws were cut from seastone! Do you understand what I mean?

Showing his right hand, he declared.

"I can kill you whenever I want."

In spite of that, Gasparde turned around and looked at him calmly. Then, finally, he asked him.

"Why is a guy like you behaving so stupidly confronting me?"

Simply staring at Gaspard, Kuro then stared at the other pirates attacking Willy, before lowering his gaze to Needless's body. Finally, he asserted.

"In the end, you're exactly the kind of guy I was."

"What ? "

"Control my crew with fear! Kill everyone I find unnecessary! Think of myself as the most powerful man in the world! When I look at you, I realize how pathetic I was."

"Sorry ? "

"Even though my old crew was a bunch of morons who annoyed me, I had to admit that I could never have sailed the oceans without their help! A crew without a captain is still a bunch of pirates! A captain, without a crew, he's nothing at all! "

"Do you believe that? I'm a pirate whose bounty is worth 95 million! How can a pirate who has a bounty three times less than mine compare to me?"

"It's just a number." Kuro retorted. "That means nothing! And I know something about it! Me, I got beaten by a kid who had no bounty on his head."

"HAHAHA! And where are you going with this? Are you saying that you can defeat me?"

"Why not give it a try, are you that strong?"

Seeing the two men facing each other, Buggy discreetly began to walk away, asserting himself.

"Kuro seems to be handling the situation! Better not to embarrass him."

At that moment, another Navy shot hit Gasparde's ship, causing many pirates to fall into the water, as did Willy. Instantly losing his balance, Kuro caught up with the railing of the boat, groaning.

"The Navy! Geez, they never give up on those."

Suddenly, a figure jumped over him. Unable to react, Kuro felt Needless's arms wrap around him and pushed him overboard. Seeing his two teammates fall into the water, Buggy felt big drops of sweat appear on his face.

"I am dead. "


Meanwhile, being able to see the fight from the Buggy boat, Alvida asserted.

"Buggy is dead."

"He would have done better to fall in the water." Zala asserted. "Even if he couldn't swim, he would have had a better chance of getting by."

Meanwhile, walking towards the back of the boat, Magi stared at the Navy ship which continued to fire. Heaving an annoyed sigh, he finally grabbed his hat, before throwing it in the direction of the boat.

"I'm giving this back to you."

Immediately his hat increased tenfold in size. Then, through its opening, dozens of cannonballs came out. These were all the projectiles that Magi had managed to store in his hat, during the attack on Navarone. as if they had just been fired by cannons, the projectiles fired towards the Navy boat and exploded upon hitting it.

"What?" Commander Dreak stunned, seeing that a fire had just started. " What happened ? "

"That's it!" Magi asserted.


Hearing another explosion, the team rocket trio rushed into the engine room.

"Quick! Otherwise, we'll miss our escape."

"We're following you!" Jessie assured.

"Wobbeffut!"

Running to the back of the group, while hugging Stufful, James suddenly stopped, seeing Biera's body on the ground. Breathing with difficulty, the old man had reached the limit and his illness had taken hold.

"Old man ! "

"Oye! James! What are you doing? Hurry up."

Then, as his comrades hastened, they were surprised to see James arrive, while having Biera's arm around his shoulders, to help him walk.

"The old man ? "

"Help me! He can't walk! We're not going to leave him here!"


Raising his head out of the water, Kuro managed to grab hold of a large piece of wood and climbed onto it. At the same time, Needless tried to do the same. Nonetheless, his hand pressed to his wound in the abdomen, he began to moan in pain.

"Hmm? You're a tough guy! Do you still want to help your captain after what he's done to you?"

"Loyalty comes first." Needless asserted. "The weak obey the strong, it is the law of this world."

Smiling upon hearing this, Kuro asserted.

"You, I like you! I like the way you think! In that case, become my subordinate."

"What ? "

"Gasparde is living his last hours! You, on your side, you have two choices: either you let yourself die here! Or you decide to integrate another crew to escape the Navy! You are lucky, Buggy is the type to recruit anyone who we think can help! A guy with a bounty of 57 million, I'm sure you will be of great help to us. "

"Who do you think you are?" The man asked him. "I'm worth twenty million more than you! I can beat you anytime I want."

Immediately, Kuro's claws rested near his throat, as the man questioned him.

"Are you really sure?"

Can only growl, Needless ends up seeing Kuro staring at Gasparde's boat, while affirming.

"I will finally know the answer to my question: what makes a good captain?"

"Um? Do you really think that stupid clown has a chance of defeating Gasparde?"

"No! But after all, I would never have bet on a Mugiwara win against me! So, I'm just going to watch this fight! The strongest survive? This fight will tell us if this is true!"


"Hey, the clown."

Pretending to run away, Buggy saw Gasparde's arm turn into a huge green club covered with thorns. Trying to hit Buggy, Gasparde saw him separate his body to avoid his attack.

"AHHHHHHHHH! Help me!"

"Stop running away." Gasparde ordered him, trying to hit him again.

Separating his head from the rest of his body, Buggy dodged an attack that could have beheaded him. Nevertheless, quicker than him, Gasparde managed to grab his head in his hand.

"That ... ? "

"DIE!"

Giving a powerful blow with his club, Gasparde made Buggy's head fly backwards. Hitting a pole, the head spat blood. Not having finished, Gasparde rushed towards him and crushed him with his foot. Feeling his front teeth pulverize, Buggy moaned in pain. Seeing his head dying on the ground, Gasparde made no movement when he saw Buggy gathering his body.

"What? Is that all? You're even more pathetic than Shuraiya."

He kicked Buggy.

"You are like those stupid pirates! You are a fool! You think dreams come true! In the end, you are like that asshole Roger."

Immediately opening his eyes, Buggy directed his hand towards Gasparde. Feeling a dagger cut him in the face, Gasparde growled in annoyance, while he saw Buggy get up.

"What did you say about Roger?"

"Um? Roger? He's just some asshole pirate who claims to have been around the world and collected all the treasures in this world! Is that rubbish? If that was really the case, never would a man like him have been caught so easily by the Navy! He was just a weakling who thought he was strong! Compared to me, he had no right to control the oceans. "

"Fool!" Buggy growled. "You don't know anything about Roger! He never claimed to have traveled to collect all the treasures in the world! And he never wanted to control the oceans! If Roger wanted to be a pirate, it was to become a free man . "

"Hmm?"

"An asshole like you will never understand the emotions of a man like Roger! I forbid you to insult him."

Then suddenly Buggy ran towards him, before directing his foot towards Gasparde.

"You are going to be the first to know about my new attack! MUGGY BALL!"
