Pirates: Rush to the Peak

The rain keeps falling and there seems to be no sign of stopping.

The Red Earl stood in the room, looking quietly at the screen in front of him, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

He couldn't understand why the rain kept falling. Did a rain cloud suddenly appear on the island?

The Red Earl turned his head and looked at Vegapunk, saying with a hint of teasing, "Your island actually has a fire-fighting function? That's really unexpected!"

Vegapunk smiled and was about to answer, but Shakya beside him spoke first: "Not all flames can trigger this function, only flames of a certain amount can do it. For example, when the warship attacked just now, the flames produced by the explosion did not trigger this function."

Hearing this, the Red Earl opened his mouth speechlessly. He was just joking, but he didn't expect that this was really a function built into the island...

But then he remembered the battle with the navy just now, and he felt relieved.

He remembered clearly that when the shells exploded on the island, no dark clouds appeared, which meant that the fire at that time did not reach the triggering conditions.

The Red Earl curled his lips deliberately and said with a hint of disappointment: "It seems that this function doesn't seem to have much practical use."

Shakya turned his head and looked at him: "This is just to ensure the safety of this island. In case the buildings on the island burn out of control, this will be the last guarantee."

The Red Earl listened to his serious tone and smiled in cooperation.

Then he turned his gaze back to the screen and looked at the huge robot washed by rain. After a period of watering, it still lay there quietly, motionless, as if the previous struggle and trembling was just an illusion.

"This big guy probably won't wake up."

Vegapunk suddenly spoke up.

"should?"

"Are you unsure of what you developed?"

“This is not my work.”

Vegapunk shook his head.

"He was already here when I came to this island. Strictly speaking, I am the outsider of this island."

As Vegapunk finished speaking, Cain's voice came into Red Earl's mind.

"Master, do you want to check again?"

Upon hearing this, the Red Earl glanced at Vegapunk and his mind-reading ability was unleashed at this moment.

Suddenly there was a loud bang, and a cloud of thick smoke rose from the island again!

"who!"

“Ding ding ding ding!!!”

The Kuro Pirates' emergency summoning bell was rung, and everyone immediately entered a tense combat state.

Upon hearing this voice, the Red Earl immediately gave up trying to pry into Vegapunk's heart, and disappeared in the room in a flash.

Vegapunk glanced at the empty seat and turned to Shakya.

"Track the situation outside, and notify Edison and the others. Don't resist yet. Wait until you see the result clearly before making a decision."

"I understand."

After Shakya finished speaking, he first conveyed his orders to the other clones.

Then they mobilized the island's surveillance equipment and began searching for the location of the explosion.

At the port of Danjian Island.

The navy prisoners looked at Kizaru in front of them excitedly, and the ground was littered with the bodies of pirates killed in the explosion.

"It's General Kizaru!"

"Great, we are saved!"

"General Kizaru, please save us!"

These naval prisoners were tied up and guarded by pirates at the port. Just now, Kizaru appeared and fired a laser bomb to kill the guards, giving them hope of survival!

Kizaru stood on an overturned warship, looking at the thick smoke on the island with a solemn look on his face.

He clearly felt a powerful force rushing towards him.

"What guy? Is Kuro here?" Kizaru guessed in his heart.

"I hope I don't meet that guy." Kizaru said in a low voice, and a laser shot out from his finger!

"Chirp!" There was a sharp cry, and the laser swept across. The chains binding the naval soldiers melted and broke instantly.

After Kizaru rescued the people, his body began to gradually turn into lasers, preparing to go to the island to check the specific situation.

However, at this critical moment, a strong gust of wind blew in, instantly kicking Kizaru away, and turned into a sky full of stars!!!

"Awesome!!!" The roar was like an explosion. Countless spots of light rushed towards the island at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, the entire port was like a detonated minefield!

"Boom boom boom!!!" Countless explosions sounded one after another, deafening, and the port was blown into a honeycomb in an instant. The navy soldiers who had just been saved turned into cold corpses at this moment.

"Damn it!" The shining ball of light on the ground made an angry sound, and the next second countless light points gathered together again. Kizaru covered his forehead, and blood flowed out from between his fingers!

"Kizaru, are you the only one looking for trouble here?"

The sudden voice startled Kizaru. He looked up suddenly, only to find a familiar yet unfamiliar figure standing in front of him—the Red Earl.

The Red Earl had a playful smile on his face and a gleam of majesty in his eyes.

Kizaru's pupils trembled involuntarily and his expression became extremely solemn.

"You...how did you become like this?!" Kizaru was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He opened his eyes wide and looked at the Red Earl in front of him in disbelief.

Although the Red Earl was once powerful, he is old after all, and his strength has declined.

Now, however, the Red Earl seems to have returned to his peak, or even better.

"I just became a little younger. There's no need to make such a fuss, right?" The Red Earl raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.

His tone was relaxed, and he didn't seem to care about the change in himself.

"Get younger?" Kizaru's face instantly turned extremely ugly, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He was well aware of the terrifying strength of the Red Earl when he was young. Now that he had recovered to that state, this undoubtedly brought tremendous pressure to Kizaru.

"You have accepted the ability of the devil fruit, right?" Kizaru tried to calm himself down. He stared at the Red Earl, trying to find the answer.

"You guessed it right." The Red Earl answered lightly, his eyes revealing an unfathomable depth.

At this moment, Kizaru suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis and his body reacted instinctively.

He quickly stood up from the ground and took a defensive posture with a serious look on his face.

"bump!!!"

There was a loud bang, and the Red Earl suddenly kicked out and kicked Kizaru hard on the arm.

Kizaru was knocked away by this huge force, and flew into the air like a kite with a broken string.

Kizaru rolled several times in the air before he managed to steady himself. His face was as pale as paper and veins bulged on his forehead.

He never thought that the Red Earl's attack would be so fast that he had no time to react.
