Ghost Shark, but in the world of One Piece

Page 30

A silver-armored soldier, out of control, raised his steel sword and swung it forward, but halfway there, he tripped over some gravel from the casino and bumped into the tip of the other soldier's sword.

Another soldier raised his pistol, and the shell exploded in his hand with a loud bang, shattering the gun.

A soldier's laser arrow accidentally hit a seabird, triggering a swarm of birds attacking it...

Within minutes, the 'rebel' soldiers were knocked down for all sorts of bizarre reasons.

The opposing navy was amazed.

The bizarre ways of dying I witnessed that day were more than most people see in a lifetime...

Is this...luck?

A scene from the movie flashed through Specter's mind, and he fell into deep thought.

The trigger mechanism for the Lucky Fruit seems to be touch?

To verify his hypothesis, Ghost Shark resorted to his old trick and activated the blood manipulation once again.

Hmph, pathetic struggle, you little bug.

Yusta chuckled and glanced at Laurentina with a playful look.

Thump! A familiar blonde girl bumped into Ghost Shark's arms.

"Alice?!"

Alice's abrupt and routine entrance knocked Laurentina's dancing hands off course and turned them toward the Navy.

Click...click...click...

The sailors felt as if they could hear the mechanical sound of a clockwork being wound up inside their bodies, and they found that their movements had become stiff.

What happened? Why can't I move?

Could it be... Captain Laurentina's ability?!

In an instant, the entire battlefield became eerie.

"Ah, it's the adorable little rascal Latavia."

Ghost Shark canceled her ability, her fingers unconsciously tugging at a strand of hair. Splashing raindrops pattered on the hem of her skirt, the glistening water reflecting silver light onto the scriptures on the ribbons.

"Poor little rascal, how are you doing now?"

"Laurentina? Why are you acting so strangely?"

Under Grandma Susan's care, Alice, who was already in good physical condition, recovered quickly and rushed over as soon as she learned of the situation.

She looked at Laurentina with a puzzled expression. After changing out of her nun's habit, Laurentina seemed more peaceful and... profound.

It's an indescribable feeling, like a combination of two states.

"I'm actually... fine..." Alice smiled weakly.

That smile looks so fake. Compared to that, Guan Zeyuan could be called a master of acting.

It goes without saying that the ladder of dreams painstakingly built dies on the eve of its realization. How many people can face that with equanimity?

"Yo ho ho ho ho." Yusta rested her chin on her hand and chuckled lightly, "Looks like I'm being completely ignored."

pat.

She casually tossed a silver coin aside, and it rolled on the ground, causing a soldier to twist his ankle. The chain reaction was that his gun was pointed at his comrade who was firing a cannonball...

Coins, sprained ankles, bullets, guns, falling birds... step by step, it all escalated until finally, a giant barrel of explosives was thrown at Laurentina.

Hey, hey, hey, you're kidding, right?!

cut!

The deep blue robe slashed into the sky, splitting and detonating the gunpowder barrel with a loud bang.

"Is it about the fruit of luck?"

Ghost Shark's expression was calm and relaxed, but it made Yusta extremely unhappy.

Despite being just a naval officer, the elegance he exuded in every gesture made him pale in comparison.

"Oh? You can even guess my abilities? You truly deserve to be a representative of the new generation of the Navy."

Yusta gently fanned herself with her folding fan, her beautiful eyes beneath the black veil gleaming with smugness as she smiled:

"That's right, I'm a lucky person who ate the Luck Fruit. I can not only manipulate luck, but also spread bad luck. How about joining my camp? After all, I'll be the god of the sea someday, yo ho ho ho ho."

Ah, is the Lucky Fruit taking over?

The ability to cause trouble.

Wait, bad luck!!!

Laurentina glanced at Alice.

The unlucky blonde girl stepped forward, her eyes wide with a complicated expression.

She didn't? She was furious, but her lips were still trembling slightly.

"Your Majesty, have you spread bad luck upon me...?"

Her eyes blinked intently, her gaze sincere and earnest. This noble woman before her, the woman who single-handedly propelled Latavia into the ranks of powerful nations, had always been the goal she had pursued.

She was afraid to hear that answer.

"Ah, it's you." Yusta smiled broadly, gracefully tilting her head back, perfectly outlining the curves of her chest. "You're a very impressive girl."

Ghost Shark's gaze instantly turned icy.

“That’s right, to test the powerful abilities of the Luck Fruit.” Yusta spread her arms, self-satisfied, and said, “Your father, including yourself, just happened to appear in front of me that day, yo ho ho ho.”

Click!

Alice's inner pillar has broken.

The mother's heart-wrenching cough before her death, the father's fingers deformed from working frantically out of guilt, and the younger sister's bruises from being whipped for stealing black bread.

All this suffering, all because of a 'fun' experiment?!

The thought of her own adoration for this woman made Alice want to slap herself.

She took another staggering step forward, tears welling in her eyes, her face contorted in disbelief as she roared with all her might:

"Just for that reason?!"

After the roar, the land fell into a deathly silence.

"A clever ability, isn't it?"

That's more like it! The despair that comes with losing luck... Yusta smiled dreamily. Only that arrogant woman could be so unpleasant!

boom!

A young navy officer fired a shot that echoed across the silent battlefield, heralding the start of the battle.

Immediately afterwards, one by one, the indignant sailors raised their guns and vented their anger wildly.

Go to hell, you scum who bullied our lovely ship's doctor!!!

Even Tina conjured a black spear array in front of her and unleashed it at Yusta with all her might, as if it were free.

However, Yusta merely glanced at them dismissively, and all the attacks went astray.

But out of rage

The navy chose to charge forward with all its members this time. Just because the enemy is strong, are we going to give up the fight?

No, it is precisely because it is difficult, not because it is easy.

The speech, "We Choose Justice," has been memorized by the new soldiers.

On the casino's high platform, Alice could no longer contain her emotions and crouched down, sobbing softly.

Mockery, self-blame, resentment and other emotions pierced through the crowd like sharp blades, piercing through time, piercing through forever, piercing through tirelessly.

When hope is shattered, even the pillars are riddled with holes.

"Ouch!" Alice looked up, confused as to why Ghost Shark had flicked her on the head. Her eyes were red, and she said pitifully, "Why, why did you hit my head?!"

"Your reaction is adorable." Through the gradually subsiding rain, Ghost Shark smiled gently: "Look up."

Following the ghost shark's finger, Alice's gaze traveled upwards, climbing into the night sky.

The moment she saw the starry sky, the girl's sorrow subsided.

Not only were the stars twinkling in the sky, but the moon was also casting a soft glow.

"Reality is heavy, and you've been through a lot. Next time you face hardship, don't forget the joys of life. Though they may seem ordinary, they can indeed save you."

Ghost Shark looked at the gradually calming face, smiled, picked up the chainsaw, and walked towards the battlefield, saying, "Hmph, obedient little rascal, so lovable. Watch your step when you walk."

After speaking, the bat's wings shook out beautiful colors.

Alice, however, turned her gaze to Laurentina in a daze. Before, she had only regarded Laurentina as moonlight.

But at that moment, she truly saw the moon.

Chapter Forty-Five: Opening Eyes, Light Approaches in the Long Night

The torrential rain in Latavia has stopped, blood is still dripping from the tattered armor, the participating navy is out of luck and in a bad situation, Ghost Shark is wearing black leather boots, white sharp saws are churning sparks all the way.

"Lucky~" Yusta leaned back on the throne with a relaxed expression, casually flicking her long black lace gloves, and four silver coins bounced off the moving platform.

Silver coins, rolling stones, rats, gnawing... cannons, the constantly changing silver coins eventually lead to Tina, in a state of bad luck, being caught in an attack by swords, bullets, and cannons.

Bang bang bang!

When Specter faced Yusta, all the Marines present were on the verge of death, except for Alice, who still had the strength to fight.

"Hey, I'm telling you, their bankruptcy back then wasn't related to you either, was it?"

Ghost Shark reached out and manipulated the blood to prevent his colleagues' injuries from worsening, asking casually.

Hmm? Upon hearing this question, the navy soldiers lying haphazardly on the ruins all strained their ears.

Losing at gambling is a personal problem, and they accept it, but if someone manipulates their luck...

"Yo ho ho ho, you're quite clever, kid."

Yusta sat languidly, her round, full bare feet raised high on the ground, bright red nail polish adorning her toenails in a neat, elegant, and beautiful arrangement, like red berries dotting a dense thicket by the riverbank, looking extremely tempting.

Even the navy, whose aesthetic standards are infinitely elevated, couldn't help but glance at those bare feet for a moment. Such soft, delicate feet—one pinch and they'd probably cry for ages.

“That’s right.” Her rose-red lips, hidden beneath the veil, curled slightly into a smug, exquisite smile. “Even you, I’ve managed to steal your luck.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she was immediately overwhelmed by a clamor of uproar and indignation.

Seeing the navy members below the stage looking anxious and frustrated, Yusta smiled even more triumphantly. She lightly waved her folding fan, her expression like that of a wicked witch toying with the world.

"Those slaves in the factories outside the city, and the drugs they were given..."

Buzz! The circular saw suddenly started spinning, like lightning and thunder.

"Oh dear, poor little bug, since you've asked so sincerely," Yusta said, covering her lips with her folding fan and smiling demurely, "then I'll mercifully tell you."

She suddenly stood up, snapped her folding fan shut, and said smugly, "That's right! Those pathetic gamblers, losing their luck without realizing it, get carried away and fall into a frenzy of greed."

"As for those drugs, they are, of course, the masterpiece of our chief scientist, Dr. Moshi—the obedience pill NHX10. I can only say that he truly deserves to be the assistant of the great scientist Caesar, hehehe!"

Caesar? No wonder, that guy also researches pills.

"Understood, thank you for your answer."

With a push of its toes, Specter launched its circular saw at Yusta. After she finished confessing her sins, she was already on Specter's kill list.

“I can’t let you go.” Mo Xi snapped her fingers, and a silver metal plate popped out of her handbag and automatically unfolded, clinging to every part of her body like scales and spreading like ripples.

He transformed into an incredibly cool heavily armored warrior!

"Mmm...so cool!" Ain, whose face was flushed red after Alice cast a healing spell on her, exclaimed in admiration, then suddenly realized what was happening.

Her soft, nasal voice wasn't too loud or too soft, but it still attracted some strange looks from the navy.

!!!

Ai Yin, who was almost in cardiac arrest, was extremely ashamed and angry. Her face turned red. Already socially anxious, she just wanted to dig a hole in her face and bury herself in the ground forever.

Seeing their strongest fighter being stopped, Tina, who was the first to be healed, conjured a black spear and appeared above Moxi's head in a single moon step. The black spear gleamed with silver light and blocked the heavy armored warrior's steps in time.

when!
