After hearing the information Xu Lun told, Rose was gradually frightened.
Although Heina has stayed in her own country for several years and was even made a Duke by her father, it is unrealistic to say that a young princess like Rose can know much about such a great pirate.
The ferocious power of Haina's red pirates is juxtaposed with "Silver Ax King John Kaido"... such equally ferocious names are only among a few pirates such as Roger and Whitebeard.
In the next era, Rose was not even born yet.
As a pampered princess, Rose is not like the crisis-conscious Robin, who always pays attention to intelligence and information in various fields.
Therefore, even though Rose knew that Heina once had a bounty of 790 million beli, she was a powerful pirate far more powerful than her fellow King Shichibu Kaisha Crocodile.
But she didn't know the four knights under Heina.
When she was still in her hometown two years ago, she had never seen the four knights Xu Lun mentioned beside Haiina.
She also didn't expect that Heina's subordinates would have such high praise.
Are each of them as powerful as the rising star Shichibukai Crocodile?
Such an enemy...
Can it really be defeated?
How terrifying should Heina's strength be?
Rose's mind was confused for a while, until Xu Lun's voice woke her up:
"It's time for Gance to change his dressing."
"..." Rose raised her head and looked at Xu Lun and Giorno.
The former looked calm, while the latter crossed his long legs on the table and played with the long iron rod inlaid with gold casually in his hand.
"Why are you looking at me?" Lin Qi held the gold iron rod and handed it to Rose's mouth, "Want to eat?"
Rose shook her head repeatedly, "I'm going to change Gance's dressing..." and ran away in a hurry.
Lynch and Robin were the only ones left in the living room of the castle.
Robin sat on the sofa, took out a new book and flipped through it, "The opponent this time... is really powerful."
Lin Qi crossed her legs on the table and said seriously: "I am also very good."
Robin flipped through the book and said "hmm".
"besides……"
Robin raised his head and saw Lynch smiling brightly, "You are also very powerful."
Robin raised the book and pretended to knock Lynch on the head from afar.
"Although I think it's interesting to have the Navy really regard you as 'Kujo Xu Lun'. But if the situation becomes dangerous, you won't have to hide your strength until the last moment...right?" Lynch
He smiled and said, "I'm also a little curious about the scene where you let go and use Hua Zizai to fight against the heroes! The more powerful the opponent, the higher the profit Hua Zizai will make by forcing a 50-50 situation. Haha, that must be more
interesting!"
Robin shook his head, pressed the page and said, "I don't expect that kind of scene."
Because if the two of them are forced to the moment where she must put aside her scruples and use the flower fruit with all her strength, it means that they are in the most dangerous situation...
Robin has had the consciousness of sacrifice since he was eight years old.
Although she doesn't want to die, at least she doesn't want to die until the historical truth is revealed; but she is not afraid of death.
But she didn't want Lynch to be in danger.
…
"It's really dangerous..."
In the castle room, Gance, who was wrapped like a mummy, changed his medicine with the help of the princess, and sighed, "Is the princess worried that Giorno and his captain will go back on their word and refuse to help us deal with Heina?
"
"..." Rose said nothing.
"If they regret it, they will have kicked us out of this place." Gance smiled bitterly.
Rose still didn't speak, silently handling the blood-stained bandage.
Gance took a few breaths with difficulty, and then said: "I have also heard about the terrifying strength of Heina's Red Pirates back then, and the 'Silver Ax Pirates' that were destroyed by her four knights.
It is said that he was also one of the candidates for the Navy's Shichibukai... However, in the past two years that I have been controlled by the power of Kaiina's rotten fruit, I don't seem to have seen the rumored "Four Knights".
Female pirate…”
The guard captain frowned, "In Sikeal, Heina and the men she brought with her, including Steele who seemed to have a high status in the Red Pirates, rarely mentioned anything about the Four Knights.
Things..."
"Heina and her four knights..." Rose couldn't help but ask, "What kind of pirates are they? I know that Heina is a user with the ability of the rotten fruit, and she is very strong...
But those four, Xu Lun said, each of them is not inferior to Crocodile who later became the Shichibukai..."
Gance stood upright on the bed, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Maybe it's an exaggeration, maybe not. However, I can't know what the strength of the Sand Crocodiles who are also members of the Shichibukai is, and who is stronger and who is weaker among them...
…What I only know is that the four female pirates who are only inferior to Haina are indeed not terrible characters that can be easily provoked. Before Haina became the Shichibukai, the bounty for each of the Four Knights was
It’s over 100 million beli…”
Rose's eyes turned pale. After learning that Giorno once chased the Sand Crocodile all over the sky, she also learned that before the Sand Crocodile became the Shichibukai, the bounty on his head was only 81 million Baileys!
And even Heina’s subordinates each have a bounty of over 100 million?!
"Kamui... Gabord... Rasa... Koyatl... are the names of the four knights." Gance recalled, "Among them are Devil Fruit users, and three of them are swordsmen.
, seems to have learned the swordsmanship of their captain. But I heard that the only remaining one who does not use a knife, Lasha, is the master closest to Heina in strength..."
"Lhasa...Lhasa..."
Gance murmured, and suddenly the silhouette of a woman with scars on her face appeared in front of his eyes. He had seen it from a distance next to Steele.
Could it be her...
If the three of the Four Knights learned Heina's swordsmanship, then Rasha is rumored to have completely inherited Heina's superhuman fighting ability in addition to her swordsmanship!
"You just said something wrong, Gance." Rose suddenly said, "I'm not worried that they will regret it, but I am..."
Gance looked at the princess, who sighed: "It's because of me that they have to face such a dangerous enemy..."
"..."
Gance's eyes were helpless, then he looked at the ceiling and sighed, "Princess, you underestimate them!"
Rose was stunned. Gance raised his bandaged arm and pointed at the castle room, "Look at where we are and think about the experiences of those two people... That's a bounty of 330 million.
, a big pirate with 400 million beli, even in the second half of the Grand Line, the dangerous ocean where the Sea Emperor is entrenched, the two of them are definitely powerful characters who can be ranked!
"Do you think... two people like this can be easily influenced by anyone, whether they want to do something or not?"
Rose smiled bitterly: "Are you saying that I think too highly of myself?"
"No..." Gance looked seriously into the princess's eyes, "I want to say that the reason why we are staying here now is precisely because they think highly of you, princess!"
Rose pursed her lips, and Gance sighed: "So princess, since they have promised us, no, they have promised to help you, then you can abandon other distracting thoughts!"
"otherwise……"
Gance's words made Rose's eyes well up with tears.
"It's simply an insult to them who risked their lives to fight against powerful enemies!"
…
In the cabin, wisps of golden fluid were swirling around the "B.I.B" at the helm. This was the gold left over from paying the bill.
The JOJO Pirate Ship is moving straight ahead in the direction of the permanent pointer on the ever-changing great route.
………………
〖Krajana Island, Kingdom of Sikeal〗
The residents of the port town looked at the huge pirate ship quietly parked in the port from time to time... Everyone recognized the meaning of that pirate flag.
The skull and crossbones flag in red is the ship of His Majesty Shichibukai Laut Heina!
Because he is a legal pirate, there will be no trouble even if he docks his pirate ship on the shore of a participating country with great fanfare.
Not only that, out of gratitude to the beloved Shichibukai Kaiina throughout the country, many people in the port town found time to spare their time and volunteered to become guards to help guard the pirate ships in the port.
"No matter what, they are still pirates!" Someone in the tavern said angrily, "It's so outrageous that..."
Before he could finish speaking, the person sitting next to him hit him on the head with a wine bottle.
"How dare you speak ill of Lady Heina! What are you doing in the world!"
A scuffle soon broke out in the tavern and became more and more intense. Passers-by outside the tavern heard the commotion and rushed in. They didn't bother to ask what happened, rolled up their sleeves and joined the fight.
An unshaven old man took a sip of wine and drunkenly smashed the bottle, "A country like this is really hopeless..."
As he spoke, he slashed his own throat with the spike of the wine bottle.
"Someone committed suicide! Hahaha..."
"Have a good death!"
"What? You actually said it's a good death? You should die first!"
Loud laughter, curses, and roars rang out in the tavern... The fight became more intense, and blood soon splattered.
At a table in the corner, a girl with white hair raised her wine glass and said softly: "Hmph... Heina did a good job. This place has become much more interesting."
The companion next to him snatched the wine glass from the white-haired girl and said, "Sir Kamui, the captain said that you are only allowed to drink one drink at most every day. You have already had one drink today."
"I'm not a kid anymore!"
Kamui grinned angrily, his teeth becoming as sharp as wild beasts.
Not long after, the tavern in the port town collapsed with a "rumbling"...
…
Outside the town, two teams of people wearing armor were fighting.
A tall woman wearing glasses and dressed like the mayor's secretary passed by.
"Woman! Don't you have eyes?"
"Or do you want to die?"
…
"Where is Lord Koyatel? Why is she running around again!"
"Her character... is very dangerous!"
In the royal city, a group of people were searching everywhere, and on the street, a group of people who didn't know whether they were hooligans or bandits forced a broad-minded and pitiful-looking blond woman into a corner.
"Smell-smelling woman..." The leader of the strong man, whose left arm was amputated due to rot, said with a ferocious smile, "She really makes people jealous!"
…
〖Royal Palace〗
The guard hurriedly walked in, "Your Majesty the King..."
"What's wrong? Who started the war again today?" The king wearing a golden crown was drinking wine and laughed drunkenly, "Let them fight! It's better to go crazy than to die because of rot and turn into a pile of smelly meat.
Come on! Hahahaha..."
After that, the king waved his hand and continued drinking.
The guard said: "Your Majesty, it's not..." He stopped talking, because he really couldn't guarantee that there would be no war on the island. Then he turned directly and said: "It's the ship of the Red Pirates, docked at the port."
The king's movements of raising his head to drink slowed down.
"I heard that the 'Four Knights' are on that ship," the guard lowered his head, "...all of them are here."
There was a bang, and the guard was startled. He looked up and saw the king knocking the wine bottle on the table. He stood up with a sullen face. He was only wearing the palace clothes, and his long tail trailed on the carpet made of precious sea animal hair.
Take one step and walk to the floor-to-ceiling window with a very Gothic style.
In front of the palace, near the long steps of the highlands, the Duchess Lauter Heina, who he had personally conferred, the once extremely vicious female pirate, was raising her arms in the direction of the long steps, and what followed was a faint sound.
A tsunami of cheers reached the king's ears.
Even for him, the king, there has never been such warm support...
A trace of anger and pain flashed in the king's eyes, but soon the angry light slowly extinguished, and a sense of dejection suddenly arose in his heart that there was no point in living like this, and there was no point in dying...
"It's better than people all over the country perishing due to rot..."
The king murmured and went back to drink.
Heina looked back, caught a glimpse of the king's back behind the French window, and smiled slightly.
"Haina! Haina! The Grand Duchess!"... Many people gathered on the steps and at the foot of the mountain, and there were waves of shouts.
"...The princess who betrayed you is about to return here. This is all I know. After all, I am just a pirate." Heina said to the crowd, "It's up to you to decide what to do.
"
Soon, Heina left amid a wave of shouts, followed by Rasha in a white cloak.
Lasha looked in the direction of the port town and said with dissatisfaction: "You haven't come here yet. Those three bastards are really crazy in the new world. How dare they neglect you, Captain..."
"Call me Heina." Heina smiled and looked into the distance, the distant view of the island below the palace. "I haven't seen you for a few years, maybe I am shy..."
…
In the ruins of the port tavern, the shadow of a huge creature slowly shrank in the dust.
The companion patted the dust on his body, followed the white-haired female pirate out of the ruins, and said calmly: "The captain said you are a child, so you are a child. Lord Kamui, there is nothing you can do if you are dissatisfied."
"Humph!" Kamui strode away angrily.
Idiot! Who said she was dissatisfied?
…
Hundreds of people from the two fighting sides fell to the ground.
The woman with full intellectual aura took out the soft sword from the belt at her waist and glanced back at the distant view of the palace on the high slope. She pushed up her glasses, suppressed her excited breathing, and said seriously:
"I'm sorry, I'm a little excited now. Please let me chop it to calm down..."
…
An entire street in the royal city seemed to have been swept by a storm and was razed to the ground.
Koyatel put down his hand, and not far away, his companions came over in a hurry. Seeing this scene, they shouted: "Lord Koyatel! Why are you doing this again?"
The broad-minded Koyatel said "Yeah" and said softly: "I didn't mean it, forgive me..."
Her pitiful appearance frightened the companions who came to her so much that their legs trembled and they burst into tears.
"Lord Koyatel! Don't use this tone to scare people! It's so scary!"
………………
A small sailboat approaches Kraikana Island...
Lin Qi glanced at the coastline in front of him, weighed the gold iron rod and asked Rose, "Do you really want to go ashore?"
