Pirates: Rush to the Peak

"Oh? Old man, you finally woke up."

Kuro looked at the old man and thought, you are here for this devil fruit.

"Hmph, it's none of your business! Hurry and give my devil fruit back to me!"

After the old man finished speaking, he walked towards Kuro.

"Yours? No no no, this is my devil fruit. Let me introduce it to you. It's a psychic devil fruit, the Yaoyao Fruit."

Kuro took the Yaoyao Fruit and introduced it to the white-haired old man.

"Bullshit! This is mine. I got it ten years ago. If I hadn't gone to Bacchus Island and drunk too much, there's no way these bastards would have stolen it."

The old man was almost angry to death. He had hidden this fruit in his pharmacy for almost ten years since he got it ten years ago, and nothing had happened to him.

As a result, just a month ago, a group of people came, carrying a patient with a knife in the chest, and begged him for help.

In line with the medical ethics of saving lives and healing the wounded, it took me three days to finally cure him.

Then during a conversation, I learned that they were from Bacchus Island, and they were attacked by pirates while escorting a batch of divine wine back to the island, so they were seriously injured.

In order to thank the old man for his treatment, they invited him back to Bacchus Island to drink the divine wine. The old man wanted to refuse at first, but when he thought of the divine wine!

I had never tasted it before, but I agreed because I was greedy.

Then he followed them to the Dionysus Island and drank the divine wine. The wine was so delicious that he couldn't help but drink a little more. The old man was drunk for three days and three nights.

When he sobered up, the tavern owner asked him for money. The old man then realized that the people who brought him here were not from Bacchus Island at all.

The old man thought he was just cheated out of his wine and wanted to settle the bill and leave. But when he asked the price, he found out that a pot of the magic wine cost 10 million Baileys. The old man drank ten pots.

One billion Baileys!

You couldn't even sell the old man, so that night he jumped out of the window and ran away.

After finally getting on a boat and returning to Caomu Island, as soon as he entered the door, he saw that his pharmacy was turned upside down. He thought to himself, something bad has happened.

He quickly ran into the house and opened the medicine box containing the devil fruit. However, there was no devil fruit inside, not even a blade of grass. The old man was so angry that he almost died on the spot.

In this way, the old man lay in bed for about half a month before he recovered.

Just two days ago, a group of pirates came to see a doctor, and they brought a piece of news.

The auction house on the Pledge Island will soon be auctioning a devil fruit, which is said to be a psychic-type Yaoyao Fruit.

When the old man heard the news, he hurried here by boat. He wanted to go directly into the auction house and snatch it back, but when he got inside, he heard the name of the Don Quixote family.

The old man was scared, so he planned to sneak in first, then see who bid for his Yaoyao Fruit, and then snatch it from the buyer after leaving the auction.

As a result, he fell asleep while waiting backstage, and was not awakened until Kuro released his domineering Haki just now.

"No, no, no, old bastard. Let me introduce you to this fruit. I bought it from an auction, so it belongs to me. As for who it belonged to before, it's none of my business."

"Understand?"

"That's a lie! This is my stuff, and now that I'm taking it back, it should be returned to its original owner!"

"Bullshit! If you were robbed, then go find the person who robbed you. Why are you looking for me?"

"You bastard brat!"

Old man Hua Si hardened his fists with armament color and rushed towards Kuro.

"I'm afraid of you, old bastard!"

Kuro also hardened his Armament Haki and punched forward!

"Buzz~Boom!"

As soon as the two fists collided, there was a loud bang, followed by a wave of air, and sparks flew directly from the place where the two fists collided!

"I have no strength, old man!"

boom!

Kuro grinned, and with his right fist, he pushed old man Hua Si out.

The old man who was knocked flying rolled in the air and then landed steadily on the ground.

"You little bastard, your punches are really powerful!"

"No way, after all, youth is powerful."

"Kick me again!"

Old man Hua Si flew directly into the air, then did a backflip, and his right leg hardened with armed color.

He kicked Kuro hard with the force of a mountain.

"A full-strength attack."

Kuro drew his fist to his waist to gather strength, and his entire right arm instantly became more than twice as thick.

"Oh, old man, be careful of broken bones!"

"boom!"

After saying that, Kuro punched out with his right fist, making a sound that broke through the air.

Om ~ ~!

Boom boom boom! Boom!!!!!

As soon as the fists and feet touched, there was a popping sound, and then the air wave swept around, sparks flew everywhere! But the old man didn't last ten seconds.

He was blown away, and his body hit the pillars of the auction hall, breaking three pillars in succession, and finally he was embedded in the wall.

"Ahem! That brat is really powerful!"

The old man exerted all his strength to pull himself out of the wall.

"Cough, cough"

As soon as he landed, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"It's not bad. At least my house hasn't been robbed."

"Bastard boy!"

Old man Hua Si stared at Kuro with his big eyes.

"Little devil, tell me your real name, so that I can know at whose hands you died!"

"White beard."

"Don't tell me about Whitebeard's crew. If Whitebeard's ordinary crew had this much power, he would have become the Pirate King long ago!"

Before Kuro could finish, the old man interrupted him and asked loudly.

"The new Shichibukai! Reed D. Kuro! Also known as Blood Blade Kuro!"

Kuro grinned and then said his real name, and when he finished, the old man laughed.

"That old man, I deserved to die! The Shichibukai are worthy of my life. The Yaoyao Fruit is now in your hands. I hope you can find someone worthy of him."

The old man smiled and closed his eyes, waiting for Kuro to give him the fatal blow.

Kuro looked at the old man who closed his eyes and waited for death, touched his nose, and threw the Yaoyao Fruit directly into his arms.

"What do you mean little brat? You're not going to kill me?"

Old man Hua Si, who caught the Yaoyao Fruit, looked puzzled.

"Did I say I was going to kill you? I fought back because you didn't attack me first."

"But, hey, old man, do you want to come with me to get revenge for having your home stolen?"

"What do you mean? Are you going to cause trouble for Flamingo?"

"I'm not looking for trouble with him, but do you think he will let me go after I messed up the auction house like this?"

Kuro gave the old man a reason in a seductive tone.

"Kuhahaha, that's true. Since you don't want to kill me, then count me in! I haven't suffered any loss in all these years! But he ruined my reputation. I want to vent my anger."

When old man Hua Si talked about his house being robbed, he was still angry. It was obvious that he was probably very embarrassed on Bacchus Island.

"But let me make it clear first. I will not join your pirate group. Leave this fruit with me for now. I will return it to you after I have taken my revenge and then leave."

"no problem."

Kuro thought that once you are on the boat, it would be harder to get off than to climb to the sky.
