Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Conqueror's Haki
Three pirate ships, flying the Jolly Roger, docked at the shore and began bombarding the port.
"Captain! This time we're going to strike it rich. This port is teeming with merchant ships and there's no resistance. We're going to make a killing!" A pirate with a bandana, wielding a knife, said excitedly as he looked toward the port.
"Kahahahaha! Boys, charge and plunder this town dry!" The pirate captain, wearing a captain's hat and brandishing a large sword, commanded loudly.
"Kill, kill, charge! The women and treasure are all ours!" The pirates from the three ships advanced rapidly towards the port, their faces alight with greed and excitement.
The port's residents, upon seeing the pirates, fled towards the town in a panic, with some even jumping into the sea.
"Help! Pirates have landed, run!"
"Damn it, stop pushing, let me through."
Cries for help and curses filled the crowded port. Cannonballs flew overhead, igniting buildings and adding to the chaos.
"Waaah!"
"Help me! Help me!"
Panic-stricken cries and the sight of bewildered children frozen in place added to the chaos.
"Aah!"
A dock worker fell, cut down by a pirate's blade.
"Run!"
The once-crowded port descended into madness as people desperately pushed forward, resulting in deadly stampedes. This caused more deaths than the pirates themselves, who had only killed one person directly.
"Hahaha, Captain, it's our turn now!"
The first mate spoke, seeing the pirates clear a path.
"Bang!"
"Damn, who asked for your opinion!"
The captain slapped the first mate away and strode arrogantly forward.
"I am Alex Jesse, captain of the Wild Bear Pirates, with a bounty of 45 million Berries! Hand over all your valuables if you want to live!"
Alex Jesse's shout silenced the chaotic crowd. All eyes turned to the three-meter-tall man in fear.
This declaration also reached the ears of Sharlow, who had just arrived.
"Forty-five million Berries…" Sharlow muttered. In this era, 45 million Berries was a substantial bounty, comparable to over a hundred million in the future. He was unsure if he could handle this.
As the crowd remained frozen in fear, Alex Jesse laughed heartily.
"Boys, loot the town! Kill anyone who resists!"
With a wave of his hand, over a hundred pirates charged into the town.
"Who dares?!"
Sharlow couldn't stay hidden any longer. He leaped from the rooftop, landing with a punch that killed two advancing pirates.
"Hm? Who is this?"
Alex Jesse squinted at the sudden appearance of a boy, then burst into laughter.
"Kahahaha! Kid, you dare oppose me? Go back to suckling your mother's milk!"
The other pirates laughed in agreement.
Sharlow's brow furrowed. Without a word, he leaped forward, disappearing from sight, and reappeared behind two more pirates, striking them down instantly.
"Hm?"
Alex Jesse's brow furrowed in anger.
"Kill him!"
He commanded, pointing his large sword at Sharlow.
"Charge!"
Over a hundred pirates rushed Sharlow, firing flintlock pistols and brandishing swords.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bullets whizzed towards Sharlow, but with his Observation Haki, he effortlessly dodged, swaying his head and body out of harm's way.
"Hm?"
Alex Jesse sensed trouble. This kid wasn't ordinary.
Instead of retreating, Sharlow dove into the pirate horde, wildly swinging his sword. Limbs flew, and pirates screamed in pain.
Sharlow ignored their cries, focused solely on killing. He felt an exhilarating rush he hadn't experienced in a long time. The slaughter lifted his spirits, releasing pent-up frustration and depression.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
With bloodshot eyes, Sharlow's sword dripped with blood.
The pirates hesitated, intimidated by his ferocity. But Sharlow didn't relent, charging forward and cutting down anyone in his path. The pirates, unable to harm him, fell like sheep before a tiger.
"Damn it!"
Alex Jesse watched as his crew, gathered over three to four years, were decimated. His anger boiled over.
The townspeople at the port watched in disbelief as Sharlow easily dispatched the pirates. Their mouths hung open in shock.
"Feels great!"
Sharlow roared, releasing a powerful wave of Conqueror's Haki.
The invisible force radiated from him, causing anyone caught in its wake to collapse, unconscious. Pirates and civilians alike dropped to the ground.
Alex Jesse's eyes bulged.
"Conqueror's Haki?! How does this brat have Conqueror's Haki?!"
As an experienced pirate, he recognized the phenomenon. Sharlow, lost in the thrill of battle, continued his rampage, ignoring the fallen.
Alex Jesse was paralyzed with fear. Ivan, arriving late, was also overwhelmed by the Haki, struggling to stay conscious.
"What's happening?"
Ivan clung to a pillar for support, peering towards the fight. He saw a sight he would never forget: his leader slaughtering pirates amidst a sea of unconscious bodies, with only a three-meter-tall man standing on a platform, staring in shock.
With a final slash, Sharlow decapitated the last pirate.
Sharlow threw his head back and laughed.
"Hahahahaha!"
Another surge of red Haki, mixed with lightning, radiated from him, sweeping through the port and half the town.
Ivan lost consciousness completely. Alex Jesse, struggling against the overwhelming force, fell to one knee, clutching his sword for support.
