We're finally out! The real sky!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheers echoed as everyone stepped onto the Red Line. Crocus began recounting Laboon's full story—but amid the excitement, they failed to notice Miss Wednesday stirring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Wednesday, this is…?\" Mr. 9 whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shh! Those pirates didn't even bind us, Mr. 9. Let's slip away before they notice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They crept toward the stern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a splash, Mr. 9 dove into the sea. Miss Wednesday pressed her hands to the railing, about to follow, when a calm voice spoke from behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Always performing—doesn't that get tiring, Princess Vivi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivi froze. How did he—?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned, spotting Shirogai leaning against the wall, a faint smile on his lips. Her mind raced. He knows I'm Vivi... Could he actually suspect? Mr. 9 is already down there, so I must maintain this façade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivi forced a laugh, playing dumb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha, what are you talking about? Next time, Mr. 9 and I will return for that whale!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Relax, Princess.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai stepped to the railing and pointed to the water below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You needn't worry—Mr. 9 is unconscious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivi whipped around. Mr. 9 floated face‑up, clearly out cold from his encounter with Shirogai's [Conqueror's Haki].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He's fine—just knocked out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai observed her trembling hand and concerned gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Princess Vivi, the others are distracted. We have time—shall we talk?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This pirate is too composed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivi pressed her lips together, nodded stiffly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you want to discuss?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't be tense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai's eyes glimmered as he activated his Whisper‑Whisper Fruit: Fourth Gear — [Mind Weaver].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivi's defenses shattered. A calm, joyful warmth filled her chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai said ,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Princess Vivi, I am not your enemy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivi offered a tentative smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pirates never admit they're enemies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No true enemy would stand here so peacefully.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She peeked at him, curiosity softening her voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you know I'm the Princess of Alabasta?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai shrugged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's my secret—but I wouldn't lie to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hope flickered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then... why expose me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned forward slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm determined to stop Baroque Works. I wonder—do you share that goal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivi stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why target them? Did they harm someone close to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai shook his head, lips curving into a cold smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. But any group intent on overthrowing nations disgusts me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just... disgust?\" Vivi echoed incredulously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you serious? You're determined to fight them over personal dislike?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai's smile broadened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Princess. All powerful people follow their instincts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Strong people?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doubt clouded her eyes, but she couldn't deny his presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden CRACK rang out, followed by Luffy's furious roar from the deck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled, Vivi turned—and gasped, eyes fixed on the deck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Pirate—why is your mast gone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai didn't need to turn. He exhaled, running a hand over his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe—sorry, Merry Go. I forgot our Captain would do something reckless. I didn't stop him in time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind them, Laboon roared in pain. Blood trickled from its head. It leapt from the sea, crashed back into the water—straight toward the Merry Go, which lay directly above it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's over…\" Vivi's voice trembled as she stared, horror-stricken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Shirogai spoke coolly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, Princess.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black mist billowed above before coalescing into a towering figure crafted from Smoke Fruit · Modified Fourth Form: [Smoke Giant].

Laboon followed, propelled away by the wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Vivi looked up, eyes shining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Pirate… you're incredibly powerful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Patreon.com\u002FZphyr_\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Support or Join to get access to chapters in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>",600,"2026-06-06T06:44:36.648Z",1,"novelbin.me","81eea880fd541cd3a58767be1b71395a0f189d6fde970e5241eab99ad0d4ad7f","i-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-chapter-23","i-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-chapter-21",652,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-cover.jpg"]
