Spring island.
It is one of Oezi’s five cherry blossom islands and one of the most prosperous islands. The climate on the entire island is spring all year round, so it is also known as the spring island.
On a certain street in the spring island, there is a totally different atmosphere from the flowing cherry blossoms… Tension, depression, and fear.
“What are you going to do? This is the greatest Cherry Blossom Manor in Spring Island. You can’t do that!”
A thin old man fell to the ground and watched a group of pirates with wicked faces in the manor, grinding his teeth he struggles to open his mouth.
Bang!
One foot stepped on the old man’s chest and restored him to the ground. The owner of the foot was a fierce wicked pirate with sharp teeth. He looked down at the old man under his feet and smiled fiercely at him.
“I heard, you don’t welcome pirate here?”
“…”
The old man was trampled on and could not answer.
That pirate snorted and said: “What a joke, do you know what time is it? It is the Great Age of Pirates! Beauty and peace have been ended more than a decade ago!”
“Since it is the greatest manor, you must have a lot of treasures here. If you don’t want to die, hand them over!”
Another pirate, carrying a portable cannon, came to the side and grinned.
The old man breathed hard and said, “This is…” The most precious treasure here… These cherry trees…”
“Ah? What precious treasure is the cherry tree?
The two pirate looked at each other and couldn’t help but ask again.
At the time, there were dozens of pirate wandering in the manor and some people rushed into the villa in the middle of the manor. There was a burst of porcelain cracking in the villa.
Quickly a few people came out of it and scolded, “Nothing, not even a gold coin, where is the treasure?!”
After many pirates raged in the Sakura Manor, they all got nothing and quickly gathered under a cherry tree at the entrance to the manor.
After many pirates rampaged around the Cherry Blossom Manor, they got nothing and soon gathered under a cherry tree at the entrance of the manor.
Captain Bartra looked at the old man guarding the manor with a fierce face and lifted him up by the neck, saying:
“d.a.m.n, where did you hide all your treasures?”
“This… there is nothing you want here…”
The old man spoke in a difficult tone and said, “Like I… I said… These are the most precious things here… Cherry trees that have grown for hundreds of years…”
Bang!
Bartra had a look of anger on his face. He specifically asked about the most famous place on the Island. The answer he received led him to this cherry blossom manor. After running here, there is nothing. There are only cherry trees in the manor? !
“I see, you don’t want to live!”
His eyes became extremely indifferent. He threw the old man to the ground. His arm suddenly turned into a silver fluid. In a moment, it solidified into a sword, which reached the old man’s neck.
The old man breathed hard, but there was no fear in his eyes. He just lay there dying and had no intention of resisting the long sword against his neck.
Bartra stared at the old man for several seconds and suddenly grinned.
“Very good.”
“Is this cherry tree the most precious thing here? Then I will take away your most precious thing! “
The moment his voice fell, he looked at the men around him and said, “Burn it, burn all the trees, don’t leave one!”
The old man, who had been waiting to die, heard this sentence and his eyes opened. He struggled violently to get up and grabbed the sword that Bartra’s arm had turned into. He said, “You… You can’t do that! The manor is…”
“Noisy!”
Instead of stabbing the old man with a sword, Bartra kicked him away and let him fall into the distance powerlessly. The old man watched as Bartra’s men began to destroy cherry trees in the manor.
Bang!
A cherry tree was ignited by the cannonball and burned rapidly. The pink cherry petals turned golden red in the fire, like a sunset that would fade away.
The old man struggled to get up to stop it, but his aging body was tortuous, and it was difficult to stand up, so he could only watch the scene with open eyes.
“Wicked devil… you are a wicked demon…”
And just as the old man was about to collapse, a voice suddenly came from a distance.
“It’s a beautiful view.”
Ross and Laffitte came in from outside the manor. His eyes showed a touch of appreciation. After sweeping the whole cherry manor, they fell on the burning cherry tree.
When Ross and Laffitte came in, Bartra and many other pirates saw them and they recognized them. For the first half of Grand Line Supernova, who had a bounty of over 100 million, he knew something about Ross and soon recognized Ross.
“You are… Ghost Hand Ross!”
“And Demon Sherrif.”
After recognizing Ross’s ident.i.ty, Bartra and others suddenly became serious. In the first half of today’s Grand Line, Ross is the number one Supernova!
No one thought that they would meet Ross here.
Ross’s eyes stayed on the burning cherry tree for a few seconds then he looked at Bartra and others and said, “It seems a little too luxurious for your funeral.”
“…”
When Bartra heard Ross, his face instantly became gloomy.
He knows about the somethings about the Ghost Hand Pirates. They destroy other pirates and they are not afraid of Marines, The only reason Ross would have come here is for his head.
“Are you looking for me… It is not easy to take the head of a pirate who has 160 million berries bounty on his head.”
Ross smiled faintly.
Whiz!
Ross, standing there, suddenly disappeared. When he appeared again, he had come to Bartra, and his palms fluttered lightly against Bartra’s chest.
The power of distortion suddenly broke out.
Bang!
Bartra’s chest was instantly muddy as the spinning Distortion power distorted his whole body, but strangely he did not bleed, his entire body turned into a pale silver liquid.
After flowing for a period of time, the liquid quickly rose and converged and became human again.
“Captain…”
“Captain is Unscathed.”
Seeing this scene, many pirates who had been shocked by Ross’s speed, were relieved and grinned a little.
So far, only one of the enemies they have encountered can hurt Bartra, but he was defeated in the end by Bartra. Although Ross’s bounty is as high as 300 million berries, they still have absolute confidence in the terrifying ability of their Captain.
“What? Your fame is so great and you are only at this level.”
“Spiral blade!”
Bartra smiled wickedly and flies out with a sudden wave of his arms and liquefies in mid-air, turning into two swirling blades that tangent to Ross’s body.
