Chapter 77: The Seven Warlords of the Sea
The mighty Tailed Beast Bomb.
The catastrophic destructive power of the explosion.
Even having seen it once before, it still shocked the eyes of everyone in the Pirate World. Extinction-level destructive power was no joke.
A corner of Sunagakure was instantly obliterated. The blast ran through more than half the village, piercing directly through Sunagakure and impacting the endless desert in the distance before exploding.
The resulting flames rose high into the sky.
It was a monster that didn't look much different from the Sea Kings of the Pirate World, yet the power it possessed was completely different.
No one from the Pirate World would equate Tailed Beasts with Sea Kings anymore. The One Tail Shukaku's astonishing combat power left them dumbfounded.
Then, the picture on the screen disappeared, replaced by a data card.
[One Tail Shukaku]
[One of the nine Tailed Beasts in the Ninja World]
[From One Tail to Nine Tails]
[Each Tailed Beast is a creature formed by gathering a massive amount of Chakra. Although it is a creature, it is more akin to a sentient energy body.]
[All Tailed Beasts possess powerful energy, and their Chakra is far stronger than normal Chakra.]
In Yuichi's view, this introduction didn't fully explain the existence of the One Tail to the Pirate World. However, describing it as an "energy body" made it easier for them to understand why this thing was special.
"Energy body? It looks like a living thing, but it's actually made of massive energy!"
"No wonder that thing can spit out such terrifying energy beams."
"We must snatch this thing!"
"Nine Tailed Beasts! Such terrifying monsters... and that world actually has nine of them..."
"From One Tail to Nine Tails... does the difference in the number of tails represent their strength?"
Someone pondered this, and indeed, it seemed likely.
"Then this One Tail is probably the weakest existence among the Tailed Beasts?"
"The weakest is already this scary? Then what about the strongest!?"
The strength of Tailed Beasts wasn't strictly divided by tail number, but there were differences. Aside from the Nine Tails being obviously stronger, the gap between the rest wasn't insurmountable.
Sengoku looked at the One Tail Shukaku. "If it's an energy body... that implies it might be absorbed by people."
Hearing Sengoku's words, Whitebeard and Kaido were stunned. They hadn't thought of that, but Sengoku's guess made sense.
If it was a body of energy, it should be absorbable. How else would one use its power?
Kaido watched the One Tail, his eyes bursting with light. If he absorbed that thing, the massive energy would definitely make him even more terrifying.
Good!
A Tailed Beast is a good thing!
After understanding what the One Tail was and witnessing its power, the ambitious figures of the Pirate World began to covet this monster.
At this moment, however, the people of the Ninja World began to panic.
Tailed Beast!
If it were taken by the opposing world, it would be a massive boost to the enemy. Tailed Beasts must not be snatched away.
The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, looked extremely gloomy.
Konoha had just been attacked, and now it was Sunagakure's turn.
What made him even more speechless was that he, the Fourth Kazekage, was currently in Konoha Village. There was no way to rush back to Sunagakure immediately. How could they stop the opponent from grabbing the One Tail?
Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at Rasa and understood how depressed the Kazekage was. There was no opening to mock the Kazekage at a time like this.
The introduction of the One Tail Shukaku on the screen concluded. Then came the list of candidates for the Pirate World's plunder team.
[One Piece World]
[Participating in the plundering battle: Two S-Class Fighters selected]
[Marine Admiral: Aokiji]
[Marine Admiral Candidate: Yuichi]
Battle scenes between Aokiji and Yuichi played on the screen.
The world already knew about these two. Aokiji's freezing ability was daunting, but Yuichi had left an even deeper impression on everyone in the Ninja World.
The Sannin, legendary figures of Konoha, had lost to him in a row. Even Jiraiya in Sage Mode was no match.
Cherry blossoms scattering.
He didn't even need to move his hands to instantly defeat the enemy. An elegant and terrifying man.
Seeing Yuichi's name appear on the list, the Fourth Kazekage sighed helplessly.
It's him!
We have to face this monster! What can Sunagakure do against him?
[Participating in the plundering battle: Eight A-Class Fighters selected]
[Seven Warlords of the Sea: Dracule Mihawk (Title: Hawkeye, the World's Strongest Swordsman)]
[Seven Warlords of the Sea: Bartholomew Kuma (Title: The Tyrant, rumored to be a brutal pirate in the past)]
[Seven Warlords of the Sea: Boa Hancock (Title: Pirate Empress, her peerless beauty is rated as the most beautiful in the world)]
[Seven Warlords of the Sea: Crocodile (Title: Sand Crocodile, a pirate with immense strength and a cruel personality)]
[Seven Warlords of the Sea: Jinbei (Title: First Son of the Sea, a Murloc who fights for righteousness, possesses terrifying strength in water)]
[Seven Warlords of the Sea: Gecko Moria (Captain of the Thriller Bark Pirates, controls a powerful zombie army)]
[Seven Warlords of the Sea: Donquixote Doflamingo (Title: Heavenly Yaksha, former Celestial Dragon. Celestial Dragons: The World Nobles, descendants of the Creators of the Pirate World)]
As the Shichibukai appeared one after another, their faces flashed on the screen. Everyone in the Ninja World felt a powerful pressure the moment they appeared.
Judging from the screen, although it was just a brief introduction, none of these guys seemed simple.
What was more surprising was that these people looked fierce and completely different from the Marines. Why were they fighting alongside the Marines?
[Seven Warlords of the Sea: Powerful pirates specially recruited by the World Government. Issued plunder licenses, allowing them to work for the government.]
Seeing the introduction, the people in the Ninja World were stunned.
That meant this group was like the rogue ninjas of their world—but instead of being hunted, they were recruited because they were too powerful. Not only was their past ignored, but they were also given licenses to plunder. One could imagine how strong such a group must be.
If they weren't overwhelmingly powerful, no force would give them such special treatment.
The people of the Ninja World were overwhelmed by the lineup of the Shichibukai.
But at this moment, everyone in the Pirate World was stunned. The reason was the last person introduced.
Donquixote Doflamingo!
This guy... isn't just a Warlord... he's a Celestial Dragon?
