One Piece: Under the Throne

"Hahahaha, what a great pirate ship. It can actually fly without relying on the power of a devil fruit. Has the technology in the outside world developed to this level?"

The Poseidon was anchored on the coast of the largest floating island. Shiqi carefully inspected every corner of the ship and was very satisfied with his gains.

After admiring the spoils, Shiqi turned his gaze to Ajin who was kneeling beside him: "What did you do wrong, kid, to be tied to the mast by the captain?"

Ah Jin spat out the blood foam from his mouth: "Those bastards are not my companions. I was just defeated and captured."

"Why are you yelling so loudly after someone beat you up? You look like a pirate, right? Those people who arrested you, are they the navy?"

There was a hint of doubt in Ajin's eyes. Where did this old fool come from? As a pirate, he didn't even know the famous Seven Warlords of the Sea.

"They are the Shichibukai, pirates affiliated with the World Government."

Akin's words were obviously beyond Shiki's understanding, but the words "pirates belong to the World Government" hurt the old lion's heart: "What did you say? Are pirates spineless now? How can pirates bow to the World Government?"

Shiki's hair and beard stood on end in anger, and his Conqueror's Haki, which was sometimes ineffective due to his old injuries, burst out.

A Jin was oppressed by this sudden momentum and couldn't raise his head. Shi Ji lost his temper for a while and then continued to ask: "Explain to me clearly, what is going on with those traitors?"

At this time, Ajin had lost his former arrogance. Facing the domineering Golden Lion, he told him all the information he knew.

"Crocodile? This name is familiar, but others don't. I have lived in seclusion for many years. I never thought that my descendants would be spineless and be recruited by the World Government to suppress pirates with pirates? Roger, did you see that after your death, this sea has become rotten beyond recognition."

When Jin heard Shiqi mention the name of the Pirate King, he became even more panicked. FUCK, he actually met a strong man from the Roger era. But this might be his chance. Jin lowered his head and his eyes rolled rapidly.

"Sir, I wonder who you are?"

"I am Shiki the Golden Lion."

Ajin took a deep breath and said, "So you are Admiral Feitian, one of the three legendary pirates. My name is Ajin and I am also a pirate. I admire your reputation very much. Please allow me to join your army."

"Since you are the enemy of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, you must be a man of integrity. I like people like you. From today on, you are a member of the Flying Pirates."

Ajin was delighted, and suddenly thought of Leo's intelligence, and quickly reported to Shiki: "Master Shiki, the Seven Warlords of the Sea who were defeated by you before are tough guys. You robbed their ship, and they will definitely come looking for you."

Shiqi looked at Ajin with some displeasure. This new brother was too ignorant. I am a legendary pirate, how could I be afraid of a few juniors?

Seeing that his words had angered the new boss, Ajin quickly lowered his head and continued, "Sir, they are certainly not your opponents, but you can't take it lightly. The Water Angel is someone who can fight against a pirate with 10 billion berries."

Then, without waiting for Shiqi to ask any questions, Ajin told him all the information he had collected from the newspaper, and then he looked at Shiqi carefully.

After hearing this, Shiqi, unusually, did not continue to be angry, but instead had a thoughtful expression.

"Lord Skye, someone has invaded the castle, and Lord Indigo is currently engaging the invaders."

"Is the intruder a Shichibukai Aqua Angel?"

"Huh? What water angel?"

Bang! A gunshot rang out, and the pirate who came to report fell down. "Useless trash, go back to the castle."

After killing the pirates, Shiqi seemed to have done something insignificant. He told his men to return to the castle without even looking at him. Ajin followed at the end of the team without saying a word, trying to reduce his presence.

Suddenly, there was no one in the port, only the Poseidon was parked there alone. Suddenly, half a head appeared on the watchtower. At this moment, the ship spirit Goudan was very scared, because this was the first time he was separated from everyone.

"Will, Leo and everyone, where are you? Goudan has been seen naked by strangers, and he is no longer clean."

……

There were bursts of explosions in the brightly lit castle, and Charles was running wildly in the Japanese corridor with Gloria on his back.

Puff, puff, puff. Indigo, wearing shoes that make fart sounds, strode after the invader: "You little mice who can't run away, watch out!"

【Chemistry Juggling Balls】

Several fireballs appeared in Indigo's hands. The spheres burning with blue flames looked very dangerous. Indigo waved his hands, and the small fireballs lined up and flew towards Charles.

"Damn it, I can't hide anymore, Gloria, hold on to me."

【Gun Shield Fortress】

Charles' left hand turned into a shield and his right hand into a spear, and he took a defensive stance.

The blue fireball was blocked by the shield, and then an explosion occurred, and blue smoke instantly enveloped the two of them.

Charles didn't dare to stay in the smoke. Who knew if this thing was poisonous? After feeling the explosion in front of the shield stopped, Charles raised his spear and launched a charge [Spear Assault].

Indigo in the distance was still feeling smug about his successful attack, but unexpectedly a spear pierced through the air and came right in front of him in an instant. Feeling shrouded in the shadow of death, Indigo subconsciously made an evasive move, and the combat awareness he had developed over the years saved his life.

The knight aimed his spear at Indigo's heart and stabbed it hard, but because the opponent dodged, it only pierced his shoulder. After the successful strike, Charles did not stop and continued to rush forward for a long distance until he nailed Indigo to the wall.

"I ask you questions and you answer them. If you don't tell the truth, I'll kill you. Where is the infirmary?"

Charles ignored Indigo's wailing and interrogated him while spinning his spear. But before Indigo could open his mouth, Charles's Observation Haki began to give frantic warnings.

【Chop】

He jumped back with all his strength, and at the last moment, Charles dodged the sneak attack of the flying slash. The slashing wave cut off the spear and chopped several houses in half.

"It's you, the guy who robbed our ship."

"Hahahaha, what a big fuss! It seems my men are under your care."

Charles' right hand hung limply, blood had already stained his sleeves red, and Shiqi's chopping blow had severely injured him.

Charles stared at Shiqi with a stern look, and his right hand turned into a cracked spear again, continuing his attacking posture.

"Nice look. I appreciate people with backbone. How about joining my team?"

Charles didn't answer. He suddenly felt Gloria's arms around his neck tightened, and Charles seemed to have received the attack signal and charged towards Ski again.

"Foolish, didn't the previous blow make you see the gap between us? Looks like I'm going to make you suffer a little more, Lion Chikiri Ya."

In an instant, more than a dozen flying slashes came towards Charles, and Charles put the shield in front of him, slightly tilted at an angle, trying to block the slashes in this way.

But Shiki's sword attacks were too frequent, and he ultimately failed to completely block them, and as he charged towards Chikiri Ya, Charles heard the sound of a shield breaking.

"Is it still not working? No, I can't just give up like this. Gloria is still in danger. I can't fall down yet."

Seeing that the shield was about to break, Charles simply gave up defense. The last two blows hit his shoulder and thigh respectively. Charles only paused slightly, and used his other good leg to exert force and finally made Ski enter his attack range.

【Piercing Lance】

The pitch-black spear with spiral air currents wrapped around it suddenly stabbed towards Shiki, but Shiki seemed to have never expected that the other party could launch a counterattack in that situation, and he just stood there in a daze.

The tip of the gun was about to pierce Shiki's chest, and his clothes were already flying in the spiral airflow, but Shiki's stunned face suddenly turned into an expression of conspiracy: "Hehe, I kid you."

Whoosh! Shiki's movements suddenly sped up, and he instantly flew into the air to avoid Charles's desperate attack.

“Hahahaha, I almost got killed by you. It turns out that you are all tough opponents. Can I surrender now…?”

Before Shiki could finish his words, an arrow suddenly appeared in front of him. Ever since Shiki was injured by the rudder in the Battle of Etwal, his observation Haki has deteriorated. He was unable to sense Gloria's sneak attack, but the fighting instinct engraved in his bones made his body dodge.

The arrow tore through Shiqi's robe and disappeared into the sky.

At this time, the Golden Lion had put away his playful thoughts. He looked at the enemies below with a gloomy face, and waved his palms a few times to activate the ability of the Float-Float Fruit: "If you refuse to pledge allegiance, I will have no choice but to capture you. I hope your captain can be more rational, [Lion's Power: Goshoji Scroll]."

As the words fell, the snow and wind turned into giant lion heads that surrounded Charles and Gloria. After briefly accumulating power for a few seconds, all the lion heads attacked the circle.

"Oh no, I can't avoid it." Charles' eyes were bloodshot. Before being swallowed by the lion made of wind and snow, he pressed Gloria under him and blocked the attack with his body.

……

In the only human village on the floating island.

"Where the hell is Childs? He'll be happy to see all these special ingredients."

Victoria sat on the stairs, holding her chin with both hands and imagining the scene of Charles turning the ingredients into delicious food. As she thought about it, her saliva flowed from the corners of her mouth.

In the distance, Leo and Will were leading the villagers in cutting up the giant beast. It was impossible to let them stay in the village alive. The beast stimulated by the smell of books had already rioted several times. Finally, Leo decided to cut it up on the spot. They only took the amount for one meal and distributed the rest to the villagers.

Everyone had a happy smile on their face. The villagers who had lost their men and young men had not eaten meat for a long time.

A woman brought a little girl to Leo and reminded him with some concern: "Mr. Leo, do you really not need to worry about those Den Den Mushi? They are what Shiki uses to see the villagers. Your every move has been discovered by them."

The little girl named Xiawo stood on tiptoe and handed a cup of tea to Leo: "Brother, drink some water. Thank you for sharing the meat with everyone."

Leo took the cup of water, rubbed Xiawo's head, and then said to her mother: "Don't worry, ma'am. Even if Shiqi doesn't come to find me, I will go to him. My partner is still in his hands."

The woman frowned, not knowing how to persuade Leo. Xiawo said with a sad face: "Brother, have your family members also been captured by Shiqi? My father was also captured by them to do hard labor."

"Haha, no, the partner I'm talking about is my ship. I will definitely defeat Shiqi, and then your father will be able to come back."

Xiawo's eyes lit up: "Really? Brother said he could defeat Shiqi and save everyone. He wasn't lying to me, was he?"

"Of course!"

Suddenly a shell slowly floated over. Leo raised his eyebrows. Just mention the Golden Lion and it will appear. That bastard has the potential to compete with Kizaru for the title of the fastest pirate in the world.

This is a sound-recording shell. Leo pressed the top of the shell and a crazy laugh came out.

"Hahaha, you are such an outstanding junior. I should treat you well when you come to my territory, so I invite you to my castle for a gathering. The banquet is ready. I believe you will not refuse me. By the way, your companions are also guests here. Please look at the projection of the Den Den Mushi on your left."

Hearing this, Leo turned his head and saw that there was indeed a self-propelled video telephone mushroom transmitting images. In the picture, Charles and Gloria were covered in blood and were in a coma. The most serious thing was that there were many dark spots on Gloria's face.

Leo's fingers holding the sound shell turned pale. Suddenly, he thought of something and said to the shell expressionlessly, "Mr. Shiqi, I will be there on time. Please take good care of my companions. To thank you for your enthusiasm, I decided to tell you an important piece of information. Are you interested in ancient weapons?"
