Chapter 99

It has only been one hour since Nami and the others left.

"Hehe, we found something interesting and must report it to everyone right away!" Vivi said with a smile.

Just as she was about to speak,

she suddenly turned her head to look at the Foxy Pirates' ship, her expression very displeased.

Sima Di was somewhat surprised, mainly because...

just now, he heard through Observation Haki that people on that ship were indeed discussing snatching Vivi away after winning the match.

7 6 3 4 8 0 1 5 7

He never expected Vivi to be able to hear it?

Could it be...

"Hmph!" Vivi said displeasedly: "They dare to say such things... They are enemies, right?"

Seeing Sima Di nod, Vivi was overjoyed!

She immediately jumped out of Sima Di's embrace and excitedly swung Lei Shenzhichui.

"Then I'll go finish them off! Let everyone see the results of my year of cultivation!"

Before her words had even faded...

Vivi had already flown out along with Lei Shenzhichui, smashing through the railing of the Foxy Pirates' ship with unstoppable force. When she landed on the deck, a ring of lightning spread out, electrocuting all the surrounding pirates.

The other pirates who reacted immediately shouted and rushed up to avenge their "comrades."

But they were all taken down one by one by Vivi; no one could stand against her!

A massacre!

For those few who were quietly firing arrows from the shadows, even with her back turned, Vivi was still able to turn around in time and smash them away.

It was like...

"Save some for me!" Nami cried out in panic!

She too transformed into lightning and vanished from her spot, reappearing on the crow's nest of the Foxy Pirates' ship. She threw down a ball of lightning in her hand, which expanded into a lightning net in mid-air, trapping a large group of pirates, all of whom were instantly electrocuted and knocked down.

With one move, she eliminated one-tenth of the pirates on the deck!

Seeing this, Vivi didn't hold back either. She immediately threw Lei Shenzhichui, which surprisingly shattered into countless fragments forming a "rain of bullets" that darted through the crowd of pirates. When Vivi recalled it, it harvested the survivors, reforming into Lei Shenzhichui in her palm.

This technique made Sima Di's eyes light up!

He never expected that the repaired Lei Shenzhichui had unexpectedly developed a new technique?

This "Meteor Fragment" looked great visually, and the actual cost wasn't high; it was perfect for cleaning up minions.

Seeing his subordinates being massacred,

Foxy finally couldn't sit still. He used the Slow-Slow Fruit to launch two rings of slowness, intending to immobilize Nami and Vivi before finishing them off.

Careless, Vivi swung Lei Shenzhichui backward to smash through the slowness rings, but unfortunately got hit and fell into a "slowed state." Her previously clean and crisp movements turned into slow motion at that moment.

Seeing this, Nami

immediately transformed into lightning and vanished from her spot, reappearing beside Vivi. Violent lightning exploded, electrocuting the enemies who were taking advantage of the situation into paralysis.

Vivi was inevitably caught in the crossfire, but Lei Shenzhichui automatically absorbed the damage from the lightning.

Nami stared dangerously at Foxy, causing the latter's split head to pop straight up!

"W-wait! We surrender..."

"Boom—!"

A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, electrocuting Foxy into a charred, limbless husk, leaving him lying on the deck, his life status unknown.

The captain was taken out,

and the rest of the pirates lost their will to fight, throwing their weapons onto the deck.

"We surrender!"

"Stop fighting, stop fighting! We're almost electrocuted!"

"The whole deck is electrified!"

"Serves you right! Who told you not to wear shoes!"

Seeing the enemies lose their will to fight, Nami lost interest in bullying the weak.

Vivi also woke up from the slowness beams. Although she should have been disconnected from the outside world and appeared "dazed," she merely stood there with a very displeased look, as if she knew exactly what had just happened.

"Strange ability; we almost capsized. Thanks, Nami," Vivi said.

"If I hadn't seen you, I probably wouldn't have dodged either," Nami said with a smile.

This made Vivi roll her eyes, and she swung Lei Shenzhichui to fly back to the Going Merry.

"Rip—!"

Nami teleported back first.

"So amazing!" Usopp exclaimed: "Two people took out an entire ship's crew? That's ridiculously strong!"

"It seems you both worked hard on your cultivation this past year," Zoro acknowledged.

"Nami-san~ Vivi-chan~ You worked hard~" Sanji was being his usual flirty self.

Vivi just smiled and looked at Sima Di, expecting his evaluation.

"Very good," Sima Di said, not sparing praise: "Besides having a masterful command of Lei Shenzhichui... you also awakened Observation Haki, right?"

Vivi nodded with a smile.

"That's what I was just about to say..."

"Wait!" Nami interrupted: "We'll talk about that later. Everyone, go loot the spoils over there! Such a big pirate ship must have a lot of treasure!"

This request was very Nami-like, and everyone immediately launched into action.

But after the busy work...

Nami stared at the treasure on the deck, no taller than an ankle, lost in thought.

"How can this ship be so poor?" Nami wondered.

It looked so magnificent on the outside!

Why is it all show and no substance?

A nearby subordinate whispered weakly: "Because the captain spends all the treasure on upgrading the ship and decorating its exterior, and he's obsessed with the Dai Wei Tournament—he rarely steals loot, so now we're broke and left with only these scraps..."

Great.

We've run into a pirate who doesn't do his job.

Nami sighed at her bad luck, gathering the scattered bits of treasure to return to the Golden Merry.

But then—

"Wait!" Foxy struggled to his feet, gritting his teeth: "If you've got guts, fight me—"

*Zzzt—*

A bolt of lightning struck him down again; the air carried a faint scent of burning meat.

It was Weiwei's doing.

For sneaking up on the Princess just now!

Now no one dared stop them—once the Straw Hat Pirates left, everyone hurriedly set sail and fled the place.

These two women are terrifying!

They strike without warning—it's insane!

Back aboard the Golden Merry,

Usopp blurted out eagerly: "Vivi, you really awakened Kenbunshoku Haki? How did you do it? Teach me your secrets!"

Vivi didn't refuse.

She reached into her chest with her fingers and pulled out a glass bottle; inside was clear water, yet it gave off a blinding glare.

It clearly wasn't ordinary!

"In the House of Time and Spirit, we met a man called Tian Shen. He gave us this item, called Super-God Water—drink it, and it awakens your potential. That's how I awakened Kenbunshoku Haki," Vivi explained.

This lit up the eyes of Usopp and the others!

They stared intently at the Super-God Water, clearly eager!

Drink it and awaken your potential?

Everyone present, without exception, was confident that if they drank it, they'd surely awaken Haki.
