When Clow crossed the windless zone from the East China Sea and arrived at the Grand Line, William's fleet had just passed the Upside Down Mountain and successfully entered the Grand Line.
Well, it wasn't very smooth either.
After they returned to Sweets, they mobilized five more ships and recruited those who wanted to follow William as pirates. The large pirate group totaling 1,500 people headed for the Grand Line, but when the rapid currents of the Upside Down Mountain were encountered,
, directly destroying four ships.
After finally getting through the Upside Down Mountain, they encountered a storm immediately. Under the rolling waves, the three dilapidated boats were directly submerged.
In the end, they encountered a huge sea beast, which swallowed a ship unprepared, and then got into the sea, leaving Qi's will behind.
Only then did they arrive at a relatively calm sea area.
On the deck, William stood at the front, dripping wet, with a gloomy face.
"This is the Grand Line!"
He lost half of his troops just after crossing the Upside Down Mountain. This was the damned great route.
"Mont Blanc, is the weather always like this on the Grand Line?" he asked slowly.
"Yes, the Grand Line has always been like this." Montblanc nodded.
He was born in the Grand Line, so he would not be surprised to encounter such an accident when he re-entered the Grand Line.
But William was different. Hearing Montblanc's words, he nodded and looked at the sea, "It seems that my preparations are correct. It is indeed too dangerous here."
It doesn't matter if he loses half of his troops. His core team is still there, and so are his cronies.
But next, he needs to be extremely alert. This sea is indeed dangerous!
"Captain William!!"
At this moment, the pirate above the mast looked out and said: "A pirate ship was discovered ahead!"
Pirate ship?
"telescope!"
Montblanc was the first to shout, and then a pirate sent a telescope. Montblanc looked directly in the direction pointed by the pirate at the observation deck above the mast.
There was really a pirate ship in that sea. The pirate flag Montblanc didn't recognize. "Sver, come and take a look."
Sver took the telescope, glanced over there, and frowned, "I know they are the [Shijin Pirates], and the captain [Shijin] Gene is a big pirate with a bounty of 60 million!"
As people who are preparing to enter the Grand Line, they must of course pay attention to the news about the Grand Line, and Sver, who specializes in intelligence, is responsible for collecting this information. He will remember where the navy is strong and where the pirates are powerful.
As long as there is a reward, he will remember it, especially one with a high reward.
Sixty million, that’s twice as much as William!
"Sixty million." Montblanc shook his head, his expression relaxed, thinking about it, he just came out of the Diaoshan Mountain, how could he meet someone with a high bounty.
He didn't take it seriously for those who offered bounties. He used to be the subordinate of a great pirate who offered a bounty of 200 million, and that was a rare 'supernova' back then.
Later, the captain was arrested by the navy, and he escaped death before arriving in the East China Sea. Originally, he looked down on William and the others, but he was overpowered by William's strength and strategy, and believed that William was a man who could become a great pirate.
He didn't look down on him before, but he doesn't look down on him even more now. He has surpassed himself and has become incredibly strong. He has learned all the domineering skills that he didn't learn in the first half of the period.
A mere sixty million.
Montblanc smiled ferociously and said: "This level is just average. William, we can do it."
If we fight well, we can get the 60 million pirates to surrender and increase the bounty for their captain. The current bounty is too low and we must make a name for ourselves.
Just when Montblanc was about to say this, a loud roar rang out.
“Everyone get ready!!”
Steam erupted from William's body, and steam blasts erupted from his legs. He flew in the air, staring intently at the outline of the pirate ship that gradually appeared.
"Mont Blanc and Sver, we must fight with all our strength! Elmira, be prepared to evacuate!"
"I'm going to fight them first. I'm a natural type and won't get into trouble easily. All ships have their guns aligned and aiming at the target! Except for the gunners, everyone is ready to shoot and ready to pick up the string! The captain alone on the other side has six thousand men.
Wan, we must be prepared to fight hard or even escape!"
The steam around William's body exploded and turned into a huge raging steam giant, rolling in that direction like a big wave.
"Oh no, William, this is a misunderstanding, come back quickly!" Montblanc was stunned for a moment, then reacted and shouted, but William had already flown over quickly.
That speed is at full strength!
William was panicked.
When he was in the East China Sea, William met millions of pirates. The top number was more than 10 million, but more than 10 million and 30 million are two different concepts, and 30 million and 60 million are the same.
concept.
Sixty million! Twice as much as him!
To be honest, William was very worried about the bounty. His bounty was only released after meeting Cullo, which shows that Cullo also provided opinions here. He believed that he was only worth 30 million.
, that is, the strength is only 30 million.
The Grand Line is indeed dangerous!
But if he wants to become a big pirate, 60 million won't make him give in.
Zi Jin has suffered so much in the Upside Down Mountain, and his morale is visible to the naked eye. Now this is his first battle, and he must show his authority, otherwise the people will be scattered!
Even if you lose, you still have to be brave!
With this thought in mind, William gritted his teeth and flew over. The steam giant simultaneously lowered itself onto the waves. When approaching the pirate ship, two steam giant hands plunged directly into the sea.
"Boiling Waves!!"
From the front where the giant hand pierced the sea water, all the way to the sea water under the pirate ship, a boiling sea channel was formed.
The sea water boiled for William.
The pirate ship seemed to have not yet reacted, which was a good opportunity for William.
A large amount of steam came from the sea water and surrounded the pirate ship.
"Steaming danger and explosive power!!"
William in the steam giant state roared, and only heard a bang. The steam surrounding the pirate ship became even hotter, and there was no fire in the steam and it spontaneously ignited.
"ah!!!"
A tragic scream sounded in the steam.
"Screaming? No, it's impossible. Is this trying to attract my attention and make me slack off?!"
The steam giant stretched out a hand, and the hand extended forward, transforming into a big sword, and slashed straight towards the burning pirate ship. The area of the giant sword was larger than that of the pirate ship.
Even bigger!
"Hyperheat Slash!!"
The giant sword slashed flatly, directly touching the burning bow. Under the high temperature, the already burning ship exploded directly, forming a large fire.
Then the giant sword lay flat against the pirate ship and swept across it. The whole ship was like falling into a hell of fire, and the whole ship ignited.
High temperature, scorching heat, burning!!
In this environment, there is no sound from the pirate ship.
"No sound?!"
A flash of fear flashed in William's eyes. Was he enduring the flames? Or was he waiting for him to relax and give him a fatal blow?
No matter what, don't take any chances!
William raised his other giant steam hand, turned into a big sword again, and slashed vertically in that direction.
"Hyperheat Slash!!"
Under the giant sword, the burning pirate ship burned even more violently, scattered directly, and turned into a wreckage.
But inside, I still couldn't feel the breath.
From what I saw and heard just now, I could clearly detect so much life breath.
Can the entire ship be hidden? Has the power to make it invisible to the naked eye?
"Hyperheat Slash!!"
William gritted his teeth and struck again.
The giant sword swept down again, but there was still no response from the other side.
"Hyperheat Slash!!"
"Hyperheat Slash!!"
"Hyperheat Slash!!"
"Ahhhhh!! Overheating chop!!!"
William seemed to be going crazy, and the giant steam sword that turned into his hands slashed wildly in the steam ball. With the ups and downs of the sword, afterimages almost appeared.
This is steam, and the area is so large that it can even leave residual images.
Behind, Montblanc twitched the corner of his mouth, inexplicably feeling sympathy for the pirates who had long since turned to ashes in the steam. He couldn't help but said: "Don't behead them, they are all turned to ashes, William."
