One Piece: Reign in the Name of Death

Two months later.

"Spirit King, according to my research during this period, Haki is very similar to our spiritual pressure, but the source of power is one is the soul and the other is the body."

During these two months, while treating Augro, Yamada Hanatarō was also exploring the secret of Haki.

Now that there were finally some results, he immediately made suggestions to Auguro.

"Spirit King, if you want to master Haki, you might as well refer to the method of using spiritual pressure to control Haki."

Auguro's eyes lit up, this is actually a good idea!

His eyes were full of admiration as he looked at Yamada Hanatarō.

He is indeed a technical talent. If it were another subordinate, he would definitely not have this ability!

Afterwards, Auguro improved his training method according to Yamada Hanatarō's advice.

While confronting the mountains day after day, he felt as if there was a force in his body that was about to break out!

"In half a month at most, I will be able to master Haki!"

Auguro clenched his right fist. Although he had been punching the mountain for the whole afternoon, his palm was still as smooth as new.

He knew that this was the effect of Armament Haki!

It's just that he still lacks an opportunity and cannot fully mobilize this power!

"Lord Spiritual King!" Yamada Hanatarō handed over a towel like a butler.

Auguro took the towel and wiped his sweat, then asked casually, "I remember tomorrow is the day to pay taxes, are you ready?"

Yamada Hanatarō nodded, "Everything is ready! According to your order, Oura and I hunted for the fine furs of more than a dozen wild animals, and sold them all when we took the boat to the Organ Islands last time!"

"With this money, the tax this time is more than enough!"

Auguro nodded and was about to say something else when Oura, who had been sent out for patrol, appeared in front of the two of them in an instant.

"Report to the Lord Spirit King!" Oura knelt on one knee and said in a serious tone, "A pirate ship is approaching the dock!"

Auguro was stunned.

It’s only been a short time, how come pirates are coming again?

Don't think that this is the world of One Piece and you will be robbed by pirates every day.

There are so many islands in this world. Unless you are on a very busy route, you may not encounter pirates a few times a year on an island!

Otherwise, the world of One Piece would have been filled with starving people long ago.

"Go and see what's going on!"

Auguro took the lead and used instant step to head to the dock, followed by the other two.

On the hillside next to the pier, Augro looked at the approaching pirate ship from afar and his face instantly darkened.

"What a bunch of greedy bastards!" Auguro cursed.

He remembered very clearly that the pirate flag on this pirate ship was exactly the same as the one on the pirate ship a few months ago!

Needless to say, it must have been the Fat Lord's doing!

Seeing that the town had collected all the tax money and even had a small surplus, the fat lord planned to rob again!

If the residents of the town cannot pay taxes tomorrow, they will have to sell themselves to the lord to pay off their debts.

Not a slave but better than a slave!

What a One Piece world version of forcing farmers to become tenants!

"Lord Spiritual King, do you want to stop them?" asked Yamada Hanatarō.

After all, they are just a group of fake pirates in disguise. With his strength, he can easily kill them all at the dock!

"No!" However, Auguro shook his head, "Let them pass!"

"Lord Spiritual King, aren't the residents of this town in danger?" Yamada Hanatarō warned.

A cold light flashed in Auguro's eyes, "Even if we kill them here, the Fat Lord will send others in the future!"

"That bastard will never give up this piece of fat meat! We must solve this matter once and for all!"

The three returned to the town quietly. The residents already knew that the pirates were coming again, and many of them wanted to hide in the mountains with their belongings.

Unfortunately, before they could run out of the town, they were blocked by this group of pirates halfway.

"You're looking for death, and you dare to run!"

The leading pirate kicked the fleeing resident to the ground and stabbed him hard in the arm with his sword.

The residents immediately let out terrible screams. Seeing this, the others turned pale and stood there, not daring to move.

The pirates did not kill this resident.

After all, these are the workers who will work for the lord in the future. Killing a fat lord means losing some money!

"Alright! Hand over all the money to me now! Otherwise don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless!" the pirate leader roared with a ferocious look on his face.

The old mayor trembled and stepped forward and begged, "Sir Pirate, we just paid the money not long ago, and now we have nothing left! Please be merciful and let us go!"

"Hmm? You guys who don't want to drink my toast! It seems that I am too kind to you!"

A fierce light flashed in the pirate leader's eyes, and he swung the sword in his hand towards the old mayor's head.

An old fellow like this can't do anything if he's kept around, so he's just the right person to serve as an example to scare the monkeys!

Although they are not real pirates, after doing such things many times, they are no different from real pirates.

The residents screamed one after another, as if they had seen the old mayor about to stain the town with blood.

The old mayor closed his eyes subconsciously.

I thought sadly in my heart, why do such hateful things as pirates exist in this world?

clang!

The expected knife attack did not come.

When the old mayor opened his eyes, he saw Oura, dressed in a black Shinigami suit and holding a Zanpakutō, firmly blocking the pirate leader's long sword.

"I say, you bunch of pirates, why don't you go rob the real rich people instead of making things difficult for these poor residents?"

Augro walked slowly towards them, with Yamada Hanatarō following closely behind him.

Although still young, everyone saw a hint of majesty in Auguro.

The pirate leader was stunned, stepped back a few steps and sneered at Augro, "Boy, these are your men, right? Do you know what will happen if you resist us?"

"Not only you, none of these residents will survive!"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than thirty pirates pointed their weapons at everyone present!

Hearing this, Auguro simply said, "I'm just giving you a better choice!"

"The lord of our island lives not far behind! If you rob him, you will gain more than if you rob us ten times!"

The pirate leader's mouth twitched when he heard this.

Of course he knew that the Fat Lord had a lot of money.

But that's his boss!

How could he possibly rob his own boss?

Just as the pirate leader was thinking about how to get away with it, Augro didn't give him any chance to make excuses.

"Why, as a pirate you don't dare to rob rich people? No way? Or do you actually have some hidden relationship with the Fat Lord?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the pirate leader's face became visibly panicked.

He immediately covered up, "Of course I will rob! But now my target is you! Hurry up and hand over the money to me! Otherwise, I don't mind killing you all and taking it myself!"

After saying that, he took out the pistol from his waist with his left hand and fired a shot into the sky.
