Chapter 41: Hachinosu's

Whoosh~~~

Whoosh~~~

The pirate ship slowly docked; from very far away, Locke had already seen the statue that looked like a towering skull.

It is worth mentioning!

That golden rock skull was not built later, but formed naturally.

This is also the reason why Hachinosu is called Pirate Island.

"Hachinosu!"

"I'm here."

Locke leaped down from the pirate ship and landed directly on Hachinosu. Just as he landed on Hachinosu, he felt as if he had felt Hachinosu's welcome.

Killing intent!

Ferocious!

Terrifying!

These were not emitted by one person, but from the land under his feet. This land was a very normal color, but in Locke's eyes, it was like the color of hell, emitting a terrifying aura that could not be described in words.

"Hoo~~~"

Exhaling a breath of stale air, Locke murmured: "What a terrifying island; just standing on it is like facing a mountain of blades and a sea of fire."

Shaking his head with emotion, Locke didn't continue to say anything more.

He walked step by step toward the deeper parts of Hachinosu.

As for this pirate ship?

It doesn't matter!

Locke was not interested in this pirate ship at all.

It was enough just to arrive at Hachinosu.

"Oh ho!"

"Locke?!"

"That kid from Noxas?"

"Looks pretty good!"

"Whoosh~~~"

A pirate walked over, carrying a huge broadsword, and blocked Locke's path directly.

"..."

Locke silently raised his head, and the pirate grinned and laughed ferociously.

"Hahaha~~~"

"..."

Suddenly!

The sound stopped abruptly!

Everything.

Became eerie!

Locke's figure had already passed by at some point, and in that split second, a pillar of blood sprayed from the pirate's body; his head had already been gripped in Locke's hand. Holding his head with one hand, he continued to walk forward step by step.

Slap!

Slap!

Boom!

Following Locke's footsteps, the corpse fell to the ground with a bang. Instantly! The pirates around revealed shocked expressions.

Noxas Locke!

This man attracted everyone's attention.

Slap!

Locke casually threw the head in his hand to the side and scanned his surroundings, having no intention of understanding them further.

For Locke, it didn't matter if you could provoke him or not; since you provoked him.

I don't care that much either.

Just kill them and be done with it!

This is Locke's style of conduct.

Or rather!

The former Locke didn't have this style, but! After everything that happened in the past year, Locke changed. Survival of the fittest! This is the core of this sea. Since that's the case, then, he didn't need to retreat at all; just show all his strength, devour everything, and kill them.

This is Locke's current style, and it is also the most terrifying aspect of Locke now.

"Kid!"

"Seeking death!"

"Let me show you Hachinosu's welcome ceremony!"

"Die for me!"

Instantly!

The pirates around were all furious. Many pirates didn't even know the pirate who had just died.

Or rather!

The two sides had no relationship at all.

But!

For them, they were burning with anger; no joke! You, a mere newcomer kid, actually dare to cause trouble in Hachinosu? It's simply like a joke!

Don't think that just because your first bounty is 200 million Beli, you can be so arrogant.

"A welcome ceremony?"

"That's not bad!"

"Whoosh~~~"

Locke licked his lips, a bloodthirsty and ferocious smile appeared, and a terrifying blood-red light flashed in his eyes. He arched his body slightly, like a wild beast, and instantly rushed toward his opponent.

As for whether they chose to attack?

It doesn't matter!

Since they blocked his path.

No!

No!

Since everyone is a pirate, this is Hachinosu! In such a bloodthirsty and murderous place, don't talk about reason; if you don't agree, just slaughter the other party and be done with it.

Swish!

Slap!

Locke was like a high-speed spinning top, his legs sweeping across, Armament Haki wrapped around them, kicking precisely at the necks of the pirates one by one, their necks instantly shattered.

Crack!

Locke made a sharp turn to dodge a fatal slash from a pirate; in mid-air, one hand gripped the other's spine, the veins on his arm bulged, and he instantly pulled out a spine.

"Ah!"

Following the shrill scream, the pirate collapsed to the ground. Locke just looked at him coldly, stepped on his head to end his pain, and continued to rush toward the others.

Hands, feet, elbows, head...

Any part of the body was the most lethal weapon in Locke's hands.

Locke had no Devil Fruit and was not proficient in any fancy skills. ===== CHAPTER 43 =====
