Kapitel 27: Chapter 27 : Secretly Seeking Treasure
Ace and Yamato talked casually for a while. While Yamato was quite laid-back, Ace wasn't much better, making one wonder if Yamato was really Gekko Moriah.
"Come on, Ace, whether it's Kaido or Gekko Moriah, they're obviously men," Youta finally couldn't stand it and interjected.
"Oh!" Ace looked surprised, as if he had just realized, "It turns out that's not the case!"
Yamato remained serious: "Although I am Kaido's son, spiritually, I am still Gekko Moriah!"
"You're Kaido's... son?" Ace looked at Yamato's front armor, feeling unsure how to comment.
"What? Although I am a woman in body, in spirit, I am a man of honor!"
Youta: ... As long as you're happy.
"I see, my apologies." Ace seemed to pick up on Yamato's wavelength and said seriously.
Okay, it's me who can't understand the mindset of people in the world of One Piece. It's abnormal people, after all!
While Youta rolled his eyes, Yamato and Ace had already begun another round of fighting.
With Yamato handcuffed, her strength was comparable to Ace's. In the original story, the two fought to a draw. But this time, it seemed like Ace had a slight advantage.
That wasn't surprising. Ace didn't have a crew member like Youta constantly chasing after him. Youta's presence was both a spur and a good opponent for him to sharpen his skills against.
And with Youta's Swallow-Swallow Fruit and medical ninjutsu, he was truly unmatched in healing injuries. Any injuries he swallowed would be completely healed.
With this perfect logistical support, Ace's adventures during this period became much more aggressive. He faced greater challenges, but his body remained unharmed. Therefore, it was normal for his strength to surpass that of the original.
Of course, even if Ace's strength surpassed the original, for people of their level, unless there was a huge gap in strength or they countered each other, determining a winner would take at least a considerable amount of time.
This time frame could be measured in days!
Youta didn't want these two to continue fighting indefinitely. If they fought until the entire Beast Pirates returned, they'd be in real trouble.
"But at least let them fight for a few hours before intervening. They're definitely not satisfied yet."
Youta glanced around and didn't see many Beast Pirates minions, so he headed towards the giant skull.
Ever since he got the Swallow-Swallow Fruit and had a few adventures in Drum Island, Youta had developed a habit of liking to dig for treasure.
Not to mention, those weapons in the treasure trove could really increase his combat power.
He already had four good knives on him. Although Youta wasn't a swordsman, swallowing these weapons greatly enhanced his temporary combat power.
However, Youta would not permanently maintain the integration with these weapons. Because this is not the world where those flesh and blood weaklings, mechanical ascensions exist.
In the world of One Piece, a body stronger than ordinary quality swords, or even Supreme Great Swords, is not uncommon.
And after merging with the weapons, although Youta's combat power will increase, he also loses the possibility of training and growth. Steel only wears out, but flesh and blood can truly grow.
Therefore, Youta currently only treats these weapons as temporary transitions. But even so, he is still very interested in these treasure troves.
After all, whether it's in the pirate world he traversed or the Naruto world, danger has never been in short supply. Temporary increase in combat power is still combat power.
Before reaching the invincible level, one should not miss the opportunity to improve oneself.
Entering the skull palace, there were also some lackeys of the Beast Pirates, but they had already passed out, apparently due to the clash of Conqueror's Haki.
Youta ignored them and looked at the palace, trying to figure out where the treasure trove of the Beast Pirates was.
But this building was actually converted from a huge biological skull, completely different from all the architectural layouts Youta had learned in the ninja school, so there was no way to figure out where the important place was. This made him a little frustrated.
"Forget it, let's take a look around here first."
Even in the headquarters of the Kaido Pirates, the people here are very rare. Occasionally, there are two awake, but they still can't find Youta's figure.
However, just as Youta had just arrived on the second floor, suddenly, his Observation Haki seemed to sense something, and his heart jumped.
Several white silk threads suddenly fell from the sky, almost entangling Youta. Youta's face changed slightly, and he looked towards the dark direction where the silk threads appeared.
A huge golden-haired woman emerged from the darkness. Such a huge figure, but silent, almost made Youta, who was originally in a secretive profession and had awakened Observation Haki, almost caught off guard. Obviously, the newcomer was not an ordinary person.
"Spider Fruit, Ancient type? Are you Black Maria?" Youta's face showed a slight surprise. As the woman fully appeared, Youta also saw that her lower body was a huge spider.
Spiders are naturally skilled in ambush. It's no wonder Youta didn't notice it at first.
Didn't all the Kaido Pirates have already gone out? Why is there still such a person here?
Of course, the most important thing is, are there any other people from the Kaido Pirates here?
"Yo, little guy, what are you doing here? This place doesn't welcome outsiders." Despite saying so, behind Black Maria, a bunch of monsters and demons emerged. At first glance, it seemed like the legendary Night Parade of One Hundred Demons!
Black Maria is like a spider demon bride, with a bunch of grotesque demons behind her. There are demon faces, rolling heads, and hardly anyone looks normal.
If you don't know, you might think these guys eat Mythical Zoan too.
Seeing Youta's serious expression, Black Maria chuckled: "Kid, are you here with that flame kid outside? Are you trying to challenge Lord Kaido? But your captain seems to be unable to beat Lord Kaido's child, Young Master Oda."
"Are you coming here alone to die?"
Hearing Black Maria's words, Youta's expression improved. "It seems that there should be only you in this castle, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have said so much, trying to make me leave on my own."
Even if Kaido is in the castle, even if there is still a calamity, or even someone from the Skyline Six, Black Maria's attitude will not be like this, she would have already come up to fight.
