Chapter 77: Fish-Man Island

Chapter 77: Fish-Man Island

“No way!” Perona’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Why isn’t this affecting you?!” She steadied herself, taking a combat stance, and gestured firmly with her hands. “I must have made some sort of mistake a second ago.”

Four Hollows materialized from her hands, “You’re going to lose all will to live when they strike together.”

“Uh~” Kizaru remained unmoved, scratching his head in contemplation.

-Quadruple Negative Attack-

The four Hollows surged toward Kizaru and seamlessly passed through his body.

-Fewwwwth-

“Ne-ga-tive! Ne-ga-tive! Ne-ga-tive! Ne-ga-tive!”

However, this time, things were different. Kizaru didn’t flinch as he had before; he remained steadfast. With his hands in his pockets, he declared in his typical slow, nonchalant tone, “I~... Wanna become a louse...~”

The soldiers around him stared in disbelief at the unexpected proclamation from their admiral.

Returning to his usual demeanor, Kizaru casually waved his hand, “Hmm~... let’s just pretend you didn’t hear that.~”

————–

“Getting used to it...”

Kizaru nonchalantly adjusted the sunglasses on his face, revealing a wry smile.

“Interesting!

Dealing with this kind of ability can be quite a real headache..

But going up against a Marine Admiral? ...

Are you really sure you’re not overestimating yourself, young lady?”

“H-How... How is this even possible?” Perona stepped back in sheer disbelief. “My powers have never failed me... Even if you’re an Admiral, it doesn’t seem possible...”

In that moment, she realized the complexity and the perilous situation she was in.

How could she believe she could defeat an Admiral? Someone who had effortlessly taken down her captain.

“Stupid Perona! I’m in deep trouble!” She exclaimed while hitting her face in frustration.

“Uh~?” Kizaru gave her a friendly gaze, “Because I’m extremely negative and lazy. What do you expect from someone caught between sleep and work?~”

“Ah!!!???” Perona’s eyes widened, and tears welled up.

-Thud.-

This time, it was her who knelt, wearing a face of sheer disappointment.

“I don’t stand a chance! I’ve lost...”

“I’ll leave the rest to you,” Those words hung in the tense air as Onigumo efficiently handcuffed Perona’s hands, ensuring her confinement alongside the other pirates on Thriller Bark Island.

Meanwhile, Kizaru calmly made his way back to the ship, where he resumed sipping his tea as if nothing extraordinary had occurred.

Fish-Man Island.

Thankfully, the journey unfolded without a hitch.

The Navy’s submarine silently docked at Fish-Man Island. As Yamakaji and the Navy crew disembarked, they were met with an unexpected scene.

Three pirate ships were moored, clearly preparing for a voyage into the New World. Pirates, shouldering supplies, observed the arrival of elite Navy members.

A tense pause ensued.

Suddenly, one of the pirates stashed his supplies and unsheathed his blade, addressing the others, “Men!

The Navy’s here!

Get ready for a fight!

They’re just a few soldiers!

No need to panic; let’s deal with them right here!”

Another pirate joined in, “That’s right!

They don’t stand a chance!

Tomorrow, we set sail for the New World, the territory of the Four Emperors. They won’t be able to touch us there!

Men, let’s take them down!!”

In response, the group of pirates, visibly uneasy, subtly tightened their grip on their weapons, ready for a fight.

But...

“Errr... Why is it so noisy here...”

Aokiji emerged from the submarine with a sleep mask covering his eyes, asking, “Have we reached Fish-Man Island already? ... And why is it so dim here...”
