Chapitre 74: Pirate Festival Begin
Under the watchful gaze of the assembled crowd, the Festival kicked off. A colossal ship navigated the entrance and gracefully docked at the Festival island. The initial segment of the festivities involved a treasure hunt, with none other than the fabled Pirate King Roger's treasure as the coveted prize.
News of the treasure hunt thrilled the attending pirates.
"Heehahahah~"
"Whitebeard hasn't arrived yet?"
Donquixote Doflamingo moored his vessel by the bay, displaying disinterest in the supposed treasure hunt. In truth, any pirate of repute in the New World would likely eschew such games. Doflamingo remained skeptical about the existence of the treasure, and even if it were real, the acquisition depended on strength. The true claimant of the treasure would be the strongest, not the participants, who merely served as stepping stones for the ultimate victor.
However, this crucial information eluded the ordinary pirates, who believed discovering the treasure would automatically make it theirs. Fueled by excitement, they eagerly readied themselves to conquer the treasure hunt, anticipating the moment when they would lay hands on the legendary Pirate King Roger's treasure, all while being scrutinized by the onlookers.
Driven by a desire to showcase their prowess, pirates enthusiastically prepared for the challenge.
"This festival has attracted quite a number of pirates!"
Eustass 'Captain' Kid stood on his ship, Victoria Punk, his expression radiating excitement.
"If we secure the top spot in this treasure hunt, the Kid Pirates' name will echo throughout the New World."
'Murder Machine' Killer's eyes blazed with determination. Since entering the New World, the Kid Pirates faced numerous formidable opponents, surpassing anything they encountered in the first half of the Grand Line.
Previously a dominant force, the Kid Pirates now navigated the New World, grappling with opponents whose bounties exceeded 100 million. The shift in power dynamics fueled their frustration.
"Haahahaha"
"This treasure hunt is just the beginning of our renown in the New World!"
Kid laughed, his enthusiasm undeterred.
Meanwhile, other supernovas engaged in discussions, sharing Kid's aspiration to shine in the treasure hunt and establish their names in the New World.
Of course, some individuals approached the situation with a touch more sagacity.
In the midst of the treasure hunting game, notable figures like Donquixote Doflamingo, Byrnndi World, and the Beasts Pirates, including 'The Surgeon of Death' Trafalgar D. Water Law, observed the unfolding chaos. Trafalgar Law, displaying his characteristic caution, chose to quit the treasure hunt, recognizing that the ultimate ownership of Roger's treasure would not solely depend on the participants' actions.
Killer expressed surprise at Law's decision, while Kid ridiculed him as a coward, highlighting the contrast between words and actions. The host of the festival officially announced the start of the treasure hunting game, prompting participants to rush forward. However, what began as a simple treasure hunt quickly devolved into a naval war, with teams falling behind resorting to attacks.
The Supernovas, demonstrating their prowess, quickly took the lead in the chaotic sea battle. As the spectacle unfolded, Doflamingo and Jack the Drought watched with interest and disdain. Doflamingo found amusement in the clashes, comparing them to watching monkeys play, while Jack the Drought, present on Kaido's orders, considered the event an appetizer before the real protagonist arrived.
Doflamingo, looking towards the distant sea, acknowledged that the treasure hunt was merely a pre-match performance for strong individuals. The true drama awaited the decisive battle between Whitebeard and Bullet. The cheers continued as pirate boats rushed away, setting the stage for the anticipated clash between two of the most formidable forces in the New World. The cunning and calculative minds of characters like Doflamingo and Law navigated the unfolding events, aware that the real showdown was yet to come.
Simultaneously, a colossal water column shot skyward, accompanied by the emergence of a bubble suspended in the air. Within this ethereal bubble, an island materialized, sparking heightened excitement among onlookers. Amidst the fervent cheers, the treasure hunt game reached its pinnacle.
Right at that moment, a distant black spot materialized on the water, steadily growing until it loomed large before the crowd. Revealed in all its glory, it was none other than the Moby Dick, the formidable ship of the Whitebeard Pirates!
After days of navigating the vast seas, Whitebeard and his crew had finally reached their eagerly awaited destination. As the Moby Dick came into view, the influential figures on the festival island sensed its presence and redirected their attention to the sea.
"He's finally here!" exclaimed Hawkeye, his eyes widening with anticipation, a sharp aura enveloping him.
"Heehahahha!" bellowed Donquixote Doflamingo, rising with excitement, stepping onto his seat, and erupting into boisterous laughter. "You are finally here, Whitebeard!"
Byrnndi World whispered under his breath as the Moby Dick approached. Every eye in the vicinity was fixated on the ship as it slowly docked at the harbor with a resounding thud.
Footsteps echoed through the air, a sound that, though barely audible, resonated like thunder among the powerful assembly. The once bustling venue fell into a sudden hush, everyone holding their breath. Unexplainable beads of cold sweat formed on foreheads because they sensed what was about to transpire.
Initiating the second era of great pirates, the indomitable Whitebeard, hailed as the strongest man in the world, was on the verge of making his grand entrance!
The footsteps grew in intensity, and finally, the towering figure with a crescent moon beard stepped into view before the rapt audience. Simultaneously, a heroic laughter reverberated throughout the festival.
"Guurarara~!" echoed the resounding laughter. "Bullet, I have come. If you seek the title of the strongest man in the world, come and claim it for yourself!"
