Chapter 317 The Celestial Dragons of the Sabaody Archipelago
Chapter 317 The Celestial Dragons of the Sabaody Archipelago
In that year, the 53-year-old first Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, surrendered and was executed by the World Government in Loguetown in the East Blue.
But on his deathbed, he took advantage of the world-wide live broadcast of his execution to launch the Great Pirate Era, which runs through the entire story, with a single sentence.
"Want my treasure? You can have it all! Go find it! I've left all my treasure there!"
In this year, Tom the Fishman, the inheritor of the blueprints for one of the three ancient weapons, the Pluton battleship, was targeted by Spandam and sentenced to death for helping to build the Pirate King's ship.
However, Tom explained the design and concept of the sea train to the presiding judge, which led the judge to change the verdict and give him some time to build it, resulting in a suspended death sentence.
Also in that year, in the distant New World, on Onigashima in Wano Country.
Inside a room with a Chinese style.
Sitting there was a little boy with silver hair as smooth as a galaxy, eyes as black as an abyss, and fair and delicate skin that seemed to have a faint pink tinge. His little hands, feet, and cheeks were chubby with baby fat, and his whole body embodied the word "cute".
The boy put down the newspaper he had just finished reading about the execution of the One Piece character, and sighed leisurely with an air of maturity, "Five years have passed without me even realizing it..."
His name is Bai Lan. He is a transmigrator who has been in the One Piece world for 5 years.
5 years ago.
He was born in a small town in a non-franchised kingdom.
My father was a retired pirate who had amassed a considerable fortune through robbery in his early years.
His mother was also gentle and beautiful, and she doted on him.
Moreover, he received a gift from his mother planet at birth, and his comprehension was maxed out.
Such a time-traveling start is almost perfect; all that's left is for his body to grow up so he can begin his legend.
But the good times didn't last long. Bai Lan was only a month old when the Navy came knocking on their door.
Yes, it's the navy, not pirates.
"This is territory not affiliated with the World Government! The law will not protect you! Hand over the treasure now!"
Despite shouting such a declaration, the Navy does the same things as the pirates.
The father, a former pirate, initially wanted to confront the Navy head-on, but after glancing at his wife and children, he ultimately chose to endure it and pay money to ensure their safety.
Unfortunately, one of the marines who came to rob the father recognized him. He had been a pirate with his father on the same ship, so even though his father was disguised, he recognized him at a glance.
A bloody battle thus broke out.
Although the father was a lone man, he was no pushover. His bounty once reached a staggering 5000 million Berries, and he was even nicknamed "Death Revolver."
With two revolvers and the gunfighting techniques he created through years of life-and-death battles, he fought his way in and out of the navy seven times.
Originally, the navy was about to be scattered by him, and a crisis was about to be averted.
It turned out to be that same person again, the one who recognized his father.
He knew from the beginning that his group was no match for his father, so he quickly withdrew from the battlefield as soon as the fighting started. By coercing the townspeople, he found his mother and Bai Lan, who was only one month old.
"Stop! Your wife and children are in my hands! If you don't want them to get hurt, surrender!"
Under duress from the hostages, the father had no choice but to give in.
At the critical moment, due to her young age and frantic anxiety, Bai Lan suddenly awakened her Conqueror's Haki, stunning all the marines present.
This crisis, which was a matter of life and death for the entire family, was thus resolved.
However, as the saying goes, good fortune never comes in pairs, but misfortunes never come singly.
After the first crisis was resolved by Bai Lan's awakened Conqueror's Haki, the second crisis was also attracted by his awakened Conqueror's Haki.
call out--!
A piercing sound of air friction came from the sky, followed by a meteorite crashing into the center of the battlefield.
The earth shook and mountains trembled, and smoke and dust filled the air.
The father, pale-faced, held his wife, who had also been knocked unconscious by Conqueror's Haki, and Bai Lan in her arms.
"Kai... Kaido!"
A name that made Bai Lan's heart tremble was uttered with difficulty from her father's throat, and Bai Lan, lying in her mother's arms, widened her eyes on the spot.
'Am I going to be eliminated immediately after landing here? I've only been here for a month!'
As Bai Lan and her father watched in horror, a giant hand reached out from the crater and slammed onto the ground. The next second, with a deafening roar, a huge shadow rose from the dust and smoke.
"Damn it, my head hurts so much. I'm not dead yet, I'm alive again."
The massive figure rubbed his head as he stood up. "I sensed some impressive Conqueror's Haki in the sky just now! Where is my opponent? Come and fight me to the death!"
The angry roar turned into a howl, sweeping away all the dust and smoke. The father used his body to create a small shelter for Bai Lan and her mother.
After a short while, Kaido finished venting his anger and began to look down at the battlefield.
Destroyed houses, burning ruins, a deep crater he had created himself, a large group of unconscious sailors, and a man with blood-stained clothes who desperately protected his wife and children.
"Is it you? The Conqueror's Haki you just used."
"Kaido... Kaido..."
The father swallowed hard, his heart filled with tension and trepidation.
The current time is 1493 in the Sea Calendar. The three most famous legendary pirates in the world are Shiki, Whitebeard, and Roger. Kaido's name is not as well-known as it will become later.
But my father's former pirate crew had a very prestigious name—the Rocks Pirates!
Therefore, he understood Kaido's strength better than others.
"Hmm? You look familiar. I feel like I've seen you somewhere before?"
Looking at the man blocking his wife and children, Kaido narrowed his eyes. A familiar figure seemed to flash through his mind, but he couldn't quite recall it when he tried to think about it.
"Hmm... it's been a long time, Kaido."
Seeing that Kaido's fighting spirit had subsided, the father forced a smile.
“We have indeed met. I was once a member of the Rocks Pirates, but I didn’t have the strength of you high-ranking officers. Back then, I was just a combat captain in one of their pirate crews. To you, I was probably just an ordinary passerby, so it’s normal that you feel familiar but can’t quite remember me.”
"So that's how it is."
Kaido nodded, then began searching for the Conqueror's Haki master he had imagined.
"You were the one fighting these marines just now, right? Then you must know who unleashed that powerful Conqueror's Haki. Where is he? Tell me, I want to fight him to the death!"
The father's face stiffened, and his fists instantly hardened.
But recalling Kaido's glorious achievements in the Rocks Pirates, he had to suppress his anger and force a smile that was extremely ugly. He turned around and took out Bai Lan from his wife's arms to show Kaido.
Kaido was initially confused, then seemed to realize something, and then unleashed his Observation Haki to sense things. The next second, his pupils widened instantly.
