Chapter 470: Zhang Jie: Should I establish a Lord Lord Heixing Legion?
At night, Gaya Island was shrouded in darkness and fell into silence, but Mocker Town, located on its west coast, was brightly lit.
Among them, the Old Terry Bar was the liveliest, with countless sounds of laughter and cursing emanating from within.
Occasionally, pirates who had drunk too much and wore fierce expressions would draw their weapons and fight.
This was a "lawless zone" with no government or national jurisdiction,
and it was also a gathering place for pirates, where the law of the jungle—the weak are prey to the strong—prevailed.
Creak.
Suddenly, the tightly closed bar door was pushed open, and a figure slowly walked in.
The cold night wind took the opportunity to sweep through the entire bar through the gap.
Many pirates inside who were having fun were startled by the cold wind and shivered.
"Damn it, which little brat is so blind?"
A pirate with a face full of fat, who had taken off his shirt after getting drunk, shivered heavily from the cold wind.
He couldn't help but be furious, his hand already reaching for the large axe placed under the table.
"Teach this guy a lesson!"
"Go on, Red Axe, don't let us look down on you!"
Other pirates, thinking the more chaos the better, began to jeer blindly.
"Damn little brat!"
Being watched by so many pirates, Red Axe felt a surge of arrogance rush to his crown, and he added three parts of strength to the arm holding the axe.
Tap, tap.
"You want to teach me a lesson?"
Zhang Jie's figure slowly emerged from the shadows behind the door.
"Bla—Lord Lord Heixing Zhang Jie!"
Seeing Zhang Jie's face clearly, Red Axe's upper and lower rows of teeth were chattering,
and the anger that had just been burning like a raging fire instantly vanished as if a basin of cold water had been poured on it.
Clang.
The red axe in his hand, which was as red as blood and rumored to have been stained by human blood, fell to the ground.
"Lord Lord Heixing, Zhang Jie!"
The entire bar was instantly silent, as if a pause button had been pressed.
If you asked whether the strongest force on the sea during this period was the Navy or the Four Emperors, they might not be very clear.
But if you asked who the most prominent individual on the sea during this period was, it was undoubtedly Zhang Jie!
For the past ten years or so, this name had been unknown on the sea, but more than a month ago, it shot up like a rocket,
simply because his first battle after debuting was against a Pirate Emperor who stood at the pinnacle of countless pirates!
Countless pirates had challenged Pirate Emperors, attempting to pull the Four Emperors off their horses and replace them themselves,
but these pirates, either using their companions or their own corpses,
proved that the majesty of the Pirate Emperors could not be violated.
Zhang Jie was the only individual in these years to challenge a Pirate Emperor and retreat unscathed.
Before this, rumors spread on the sea that a fifth Emperor-level pirate crew was about to appear.
Because the Four Emperors' pirate crews were essentially the largest violent gangs on the sea,
pieced together by the Four Emperors using their own powerful strength.
With the strength Zhang Jie had displayed, it was enough to be promoted to the fifth Pirate Emperor.
Countless pirates, and even pirate crews, moved upon hearing the news,
hoping to become the followers of this fifth Pirate Emperor.
Then they received the World Government's propaganda—
Zhang Jie chose to join the World Government and became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
This left countless pirates who wanted to defect to Zhang Jie and make a big career deeply disappointed.
However, for these small pirates with bounties of no more than ten million, whether it was the "fifth Pirate Emperor"
or a Warlord of the Sea, they were all big shots they couldn't afford to provoke.
As for why they added "Lord Lord Heixing" in front when addressing Zhang Jie?
Well, just like Mihawk's "Hawk Eyes," Crocodile's "Sand Crocodile,"
Wang Lufei's "Straw Hat Boy," and Dragon's "World's Worst Criminal," when walking in the Jianghu,
besides one's real name, one also needs a high-end, atmospheric, and classy nickname.
This nickname is generally related to the person's style of conduct and specialized abilities:
Garp's fists are arguably the hardest in the world, so he earned the name "Iron Fist";
The world's greatest swordsman Mihawk's eyes are exceptionally sharp, as if he can see through everything, so he earned the name "Hawk Eyes."
The code names of the three Navy Admirals, Sakazuki's "Red Dog," Borsalino's "Yellow Ape,"
and Kuzan's "Blue Pheasant," are all related to their respective powers and habits.
Sakazuki's Magma Fruit is as red as blood, and combined with his tenacious personality,
like a hunting dog that has locked onto its prey, he is often relentless.
Blue Pheasant's personality is lazy, and his Ice Fruit is like a pheasant.
And Borsalino... emmm, this guy has always been a slacker, a veteran actor.
Zhang Jie's "Lord Lord Heixing" comes from the fact that his whole body is as black as ink when he activates his ability (Black God Suit),
and his speed is as fast as a meteor, which even Kaido of the Beasts could not catch up to.
Zhang Jie didn't know if the World Government giving him such a nickname had any warning implications.
After all, although his chase with Kaido spanned over a hundred kilometers of sea,
the pirate ships and such encountered during that time were all sent to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish by Kaido's furious heat breath,
and theoretically, no third person knew about it besides the two parties involved.
For this matter to appear in the newspaper, either the Beasts Pirates had a high-level mole from the World Government,
who learned this information from Kaido's mouth.
Or the World Government had been using unknown Devil Fruits,
and black technology to constantly locate and track the positions of Pirate Emperors like Kaido,
to prevent this madman from suddenly getting interested one day,
and preparing for a one-day tour at the Navy Headquarters, or even Mary Geoise.
However, Zhang Jie felt that this nickname was barely acceptable, so he accepted it.
Although he had even cooler and more domineering nicknames in his heart, for titles,
only those given by others, or acknowledged by others, are effective.
Otherwise, it would be the "Golden Thunder Shining Green Void-Piercing Red Fierce Flying Tiger" in his own eyes,
but in the eyes of others, it would just be a big fat cat so fat it couldn't even climb a window.
However, after learning that the World Government had given him such a title, Zhang Jie really wanted to complain,
he didn't know much mechanical technology, nor was he employed as a mechanic,
and he was different from a certain non-mainstream mechanic who was clearly a fragile mechanic professional, but insisted on going further and further down the path of a tank,
and obtained the legendary status of "Indestructible Body" that should only belong to a martial artist.
Should he also establish a force and call it the Lord Lord Heixing Legion?
"Go do whatever you were doing."
Zhang Jie wasn't going to lower himself to the level of these small pirates, and waved his hand casually.
"Th—thank you, my lord, for not lowering yourself to the level of a small person."
Red Axe no longer had his previous arrogant aura, shrinking back into his seat, wishing he could merge himself with the table.
Zhang Jie scanned the pirates in the bar casually and came to the bar counter, wanting to find a seat.
Unfortunately, it seemed that because there was a real lack of nighttime entertainment activities here,
the energetic pirates could only come to the bar to kill time, so the bar counter was full of pirates.
Clatter.
The moment Zhang Jie's gaze touched the bar counter, all the pirates here scrambled to slip away. ===== CHAPTER 471 =====
