Chapter 51: Chapter 51. Let's set sail, target Eat-Eat fruit/Baku Baku no mi!
Karl doesn't really know if Blackbeard now knows where the Eat-Eat fruit is.
He had no way of reminding him and could only rely on Blackbeard's own "cunning."
But obviously, seeing the inevitable appearance of this guy, Karl has a feeling that his next goal is to get closer to the Drum realm in the vanguard of the Grand Line.
Thinking about it, it's not bad, it's about time.
In the original story, Blackbeard had these four companions when he appeared on Drum Island.
"It's not entirely safe, but based on my clues, it should be in this area."
"There are four or five islands in this area, Zehahahaha, go first, find them one by one, I Teach must get them before our plan begins!"
"In that case, our plan will be safer at that time!"
As he walked, Blackbeard took out a small map of the inside of his coat, then pointed to the direction of a certain sea area higher up and said to Karl.
Seeing this, Karl took the chart and found that the sea area Blackbeard pointed out had few islands, almost the entire sea, and was ridiculously empty.
But Drum Island is impressively listed among the few islands, and it's the largest!
"Okay, since you've decided, let's go next to this sea area."
Karl had a leap in his heart, but on the surface he was calm and concealed it quite well.
Originally, according to the normal trajectory, although Blackbeard could determine the approximate range of the Eat-Eat Fruit, it wasn't directly.
Instead, I scouted and took risks the whole time, went against Grand Line to the front, and eventually found the trail of the Eat-Eat fruit on Drum Island.
(T/N: Tell me if I continue the traditions of the devil fruits literally or with their names in Japanese for future chapters)
After all, he feared that the purpose would be too obvious and that he would be captured by other pirates or the owners of Eat-Eat fruit.
The second is that for these pirates, adventure and exploration of unknown areas are very important, and it is necessary to sail at sea.
It's just that this time, he was really stimulated by Karl, and this first officer flew mountains by showing his great strength making his position lower, even if he showed his temperament and patience of years for the fruit were nothing for the new nakamas compared to Karl who has great strength!
The first mate is so powerful that he can't wait to get better; otherwise, his sense of existence is really low, and he won't be able to hold on to his position as captain.
After all, he was a captain. He and Karl were the only ones on the ship before, so he didn't care.
There are many new people on board now, and the fruit capacity of these newcomers is stronger than the previous one.
Blackbeard said he still wants to be embarrassed. When will he not rush to strengthen it?
This, Karl didn't really know, it was his own reason that made Blackbeard speed up the process and give up on the plan to travel to the end...
BUT... What can I do if I know? Karl was eager to hurry up. As a traveler, how could you not covet Devil Fruit? And it's still so powerful!
After traveling like this, when will you get the Tremor-Tremor fruit? God knows!
"You bastards, set sail to achieve our goal, let's go!"
On the big ship, everyone is ready and the materials are also filled with various storage compartments.
You can tell that everything is ready.
Then, with Blackbeard's announcement, Burgess steered the ship, lifted his head, and headed out to the distant sea, abandoning this accursed island...
After a night of mutual understanding at the banquet, everyone on the boat understood each other deeply.
It can be said that after this wave of recruitment on Saraka Island, the Blackbeard Pirates were fully formed and candidates were also selected for several important positions.
For example, Burgess, who now drives a large ship, is a helmsman and his abilities to control the ship are quite powerful.
According to Karl's feedback, this technique is much stronger than his ability to fight like an idiot!
Whether it's a compliment or a mockery, Burgess at this point should hear it as a compliment.
With that fanboy look, I'm afraid that if Karl farts now, he thinks it's an affirmation of him!
In addition to him, there are also candidates for other positions.
Navigator – Lafitte
Ship Doctor – Doc Q
Sniper – Van Augur
The most important positions that are almost necessary to sail at sea are all occupied at the moment.
Of course, there is also the first officer, Karl, who plays the two roles of stronger fighter and "chief of staff dog".
As for the empress and her subordinates, Blackbeard was quite sensible and did not assign them any tasks, and now even the second-hand Burgess knew what they were coming for when they boarded the ship.
Give the assignment of positions and tasks? No nonsense!
In this way, since the group left, Saraka Island has been completely silent, without the slightest popularity, only the corpses are left all over the ground and the pirate ship with most of the port damaged!
And just five or six hours after Blackbeard and Karl's party had left here, noon was approaching, and several more ships with pirate flags came up one after another and arrived here.
As a true impossible zone in the first half of Grand Line, Pirate Paradise, Saraka Island receives a good number of pirates every day, which is not surprising.
But today, after these waves of pirates arrived, everyone felt that an evil throughout the island.
Especially when they saw the scene where there were few ships, all full of rubble and the silent island in the harbor, they felt even stranger...
Until they dared to land and reached the center of the island city, the scene of blood and corpses in front of them left these innocent pirates stunned.
Although they were very brave, seeing tens of thousands of corpses everywhere, no one could bear it!
On this day, the pirate groups that came were surprisingly consistent.
They all disembarked on the island less than half an hour before returning to the port in fear.
In less than two days, the "island extermination" incident on Saraka Island spread to the outside world!
"Have you heard about what happened in Saraka? My God, it's scary!"
"Are Sea Kings coming ashore? Or the 'devil' we don't know, killing all the pirates there!"
"It is said that some people saw with their own eyes that the corpses of those pirates were all wrinkled, as if something had sucked their blood and energy, and their death was particularly exaggerated!"
"Don't talk nonsense, what the hell, what filthy things, I'm sure it's the conspiracy of the marines, they've always been unhappy with that place, and it's become a meeting place for us!"
"Yes, it must be those bastards who stealthily took the army to that place, eliminated all the pirates, and blamed it on others!"
After countless pirate groups received this news, all sorts of rumors and "fake news" flew all over the sea.
For a while, people panicked and all kinds of conspiracy theories and ghost theories appeared, it was just outrageous!
And the Blackbeard Pirates, who were sailing somewhere in the sea, were happy about their fame after hearing such comments.
Even Karl was like that. He never thought that in just two days it would spread in this way!
The real "culprit" in this theater, he couldn't even help but give a thumbs up and like it!
Anyway, if you can't find them, just look at the work.
In the end, the Navy couldn't take it anymore.
I didn't want to worry about it at all. What did the life and death of these pirates have to do with them?
If only all these pesky flies were dead!
However, the rumors were so strong that it was obvious that someone was deliberately attacking the Marines.
The more the rumors spread, the more outrageous they became, did nothing, and caused a show in vain.
The pressure of public opinion made it more impossible for the Naval Headquarters not to pay attention to, and even these rumours spread among the civilian population of the Marineford.
Originally, the Marines didn't have to worry about this at all. Isn't it fair for the Marines to kill pirates?
But, helpless, the conspiracy theory was too outrageous. Marine is very worried about her own image, how can she continue to ignore it?
(T/N: I'm not saying anything, if something bad happens, you always have to blame the navy and the World Government, that's the general rule of the One Piece world in almost every fanficion)
Then, Fleet Admiral Sengoku immediately ordered the branch of the navy closest to Saraka to send troops to investigate the truth.
At the same time, the president of World Economic News, 'Birdman' Morgans, also smelled the uproar and also secretly sent people to find out the truth and the inside story.
Even the Whitebeard Pirates, the group of the Yonkou who are located far away in the waters of the New World, heard this news!
