The vast pier fell into a dead silence. Everyone looked at the single-masted sailboat, and their pupils were contracting.
They had never expected that the burly man, who was like an iron tower in front of them, would be able to unleash a vacuum slash with his bare hands.
He was also able to cut both the people and the ship in half with one slash directly.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would have believed that all of this was true.
"He cut both the people and the ship in half with one slash. This is simply a monster. What exactly is his origin? He's not here for the Four Emperors' bounty, is he?"
"Is he a great pirate with a bounty of over 100 million?"
"No, I've already looked at all of the bounty posters that have appeared recently, and there's no bounty poster for this person..."
"Look, has that person's body become stronger than before..."
The conversations, which were being lowered, couldn't help but pop out one after another.
Faced with the single-masted sailboat, which was gradually approaching with the wind, and the sturdy man, who was standing on the deck, with that posture of having done something insignificant, everyone's nerves tensed again.
Bang!
The man jumped out in large strides and landed on the pier.
After looking left and right at the pirates around him, he grabbed a tattooed burly man next to him casually.
The sudden scene made the burly man's expression change drastically at once. He hurriedly begged for mercy and said.
"Sir, don't kill me. What do you want to do? I can satisfy you."
Watching the dignified pirate, who had a bounty of tens of millions, act like a grandson as soon as he opened his mouth, many pirates couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva and took half a step back.
In their eyes, this killing star had been exuding a sense of arrogance that was revealed from the bones from the moment he had appeared until now.
Whether he was facing anyone or any attack, that arrogance was like something that was innate and couldn't be dispelled.
"Shut up. Only the weak will panic." Kai looked at the pirate, who had been lifted up forcibly in his hand, and said arrogantly.
"Tell me what exactly is happening on this island. Otherwise, I don't mind breaking your neck!"
That's right!
The sturdy man, who had arrived on the single-masted sailboat and had casually cut both the people and the ship in half with one slash, was none other than Kai, who had activated the third character template.
"S...Sir, please don't kill me. I'll definitely tell you everything that I know!" The burly man begged for mercy hastily.
Kai released his hand and let the burly man fall to the ground directly.
"Speak!"
As the one word was said, it made the burly man, who had fallen headfirst into the ground, not dare to have the slightest bit of dissent. He hurriedly said, "Three days ago, the Marine Headquarters' supernova and Kaido of the Beasts, who is one of the Four Emperors, had a decisive battle in the Forsa Sea."
"Kaido of the Beasts, who is one of the Four Emperors, was injured by the Marine supernova. I heard that he even let that guy jump into the sea and commit suicide under his nose."
Speaking of this, the burly man glanced secretly at Kai, who had a face full of arrogance, and continued nervously, "The ashamed and angry Kaido of the Beasts issued a bounty after going on a rampage."
"No matter who it is, as long as they can catch someone who is related to the Marine supernova, they will be able to obtain a bounty of 500 million and also have the opportunity to join the Beast Pirates."
"As soon as this news was released, those people who were related to the Marine supernova quickly made it onto the bounty list. Right now, there are quite a few people on the island who are hunting down a Marine girl."
"I heard that this hunting operation has been going on for two days. Many powerful pirates from all over the sea have gathered here, planning to take advantage of the situation."
Take advantage of the situation?
Kai frowned.
He had never expected that things would evolve to this point.
As a Marine and also a woman, only Ain's existence surfaced in Kai's mind.
However, faced with these pirates' hunting, why didn't she return to the Marine Headquarters?
Why didn't the Marine Headquarters provide support to Ain?
Watching Kai, who was a bit distracted, the pirate burly man, who was kneeling on the ground, had a trace of hesitation appear on his face and suddenly clenched his teeth.
His right hand touched his waist and immediately took out a short knife that had a cold light flowing.
Without any fancy, he attacked towards Kai's throat suddenly.
"I've got him!"
A trace of joy flashed across the burly man's face. Under this kind of close range,
and with Kai being obviously in a distracted state, the burly man believed that this strike would definitely be able to take his life.
The burly man didn't know Kai's identity, and he hadn't found his origin on the bounty poster.
However, he could be sure that a person with such outstanding strength was definitely not an ordinary person.
As long as he took his head, he would definitely be able to obtain a considerable reward, whether it was in the Marine or in the underground black market.
Clang!
The crisp sound of metal colliding rang out.
Watching the scene of sparks spurting out and the huge force of recoil that was coming from the dagger in his hand, the burly man's pupils contracted suddenly.
"It...it's Busoshoku Haki!"
"Is this the attack that you desperately launched? Too weak!"
Kai glanced arrogantly and transformed his right hand into a hand blade, slashing down fiercely head-on.
Bang!
The body, which was like an iron tower, was cut in half in response in an instant.
As blood spurted out, the two halves of the body fell straight to the ground.
Watching the mess that was scattered on the ground, everyone's expressions turned pale at once.
"Ding, congratulations, Host, the authenticity has reached 20%. You have obtained Merciless Sun!"
The system's ethereal voice rang out suddenly.
The character template that Kai had awakened this time was precisely Escanor, who was known as the Sin of Pride from the Seven Deadly Sins.
The man who was favored by the sun god.
The closer it was to noon, the higher the magic power intensity that he possessed.
Once it reached the night, he would lose all of his magic power and be reduced to an existence that was like an ordinary person.
Of course, under the system's intervention, the Escanor character template that Kai had obtained wouldn't be completely reduced to an ordinary person at night.
It was just that the overall strength would only have one-tenth of the peak period.
The character template right now only had 20% authenticity. The fighting level energy that had been unlocked was also only one-tenth of the peak period.
However, according to Kai's deduction, the Escanor character template's strength right now had already reached the strength of an ordinary vice admiral.
After unleashing Merciless Sun, he would be able to crush any vice admiral.
"Where is she?" Kai came back to his senses and looked around. Kenbunshoku Haki detonated directly like a tide.
It transformed into a wave and quickly covered the surroundings.
One thousand meters, five thousand meters, ten thousand meters, twenty thousand meters...
As the covered range expanded, Kai's eyes opened and locked onto a direction instantly.
"I've found her!"
Kai muttered a sentence. As the muscles on his feet tensed slightly, he stomped down fiercely.
His entire body shot into the sky like a cannonball.
The floor, which he had stepped on, was shattered in response. It even stirred up a cloud of sand and dust, giving people a feeling of the earth shaking.
