Chapter 16 -Bounties!

“Kuro...CAN YOU PLEASE STOP EATING OUR SUPPLIES!” Ketsu was scolding Kuro.Every day since they began the journey he ate four times more than before.”That is not my fault...The more devil fruits I have,the more I need to eat!” He muttered.Well that seems natural,as nobody can have power without side effects.

“Besides...We have enough supplies for two years,right?” Kuro said,making Ketsu sweat a bit and then nod.”That is true…”He muttered.Somehow Kuro escaped.”Kra,kra!”The birds who deliver newspaper appeared and three newspapers fell.

Kuro took one and started to read,”The Shirokuro pirates,captain Kuroken or also called “Black Lightning” companions,”The Swordsman” Haken,”The Navigator” Yuki!

Bounties,28.000.000 Kuro

20.000.000 Haken

11.000.000 Yuki!”

He gulped down.”28 million…!”He then grinned as Haken and Yuki did,but Katsu was just scratching his head as he wasn’t at the battle before,thus there was no bounty for him.”Congratulations guys!” He said.

“Wait!Look at this!” Kuro said as he pointed at the newspaper.”The Commander and the strongest marine in the Four Seas is dead.Pirates have started to become higher in number.

The Greatest Pirate in the four seas,Golden Sword,Gorudo swore that he would invade the Southern Sea and then the Northern Sea two weeks later,beginning at the Fuyu Island,the island of snow!”

Gorudo,he was one of the greatest pirates if not the greatest in the four seas.He was known as Golden Sword and was 33 years old.Even in the Grand Line people who can defeat him number to only hundreds.He had a crew army of fifty thousand pirates with a hundred ships.”He probably will have a total of seventy to eighty thousand pirates in the end when he starts the war.”Kuro stated.

For him a thousand marines were nothing,even ten thousand would be little.The problem was that there were three grand and powerful pirates as main crewmates:

The Right Hand,Tetsu.He ate the Tetsu Tetsu No Mi,which allows him to create Iron at will.He is known as the Weapon Producer,he gets thousands of hundreds of beri’s every month.

The Greed,DonYoku.He ate the Yoku Yoku No Mi,which allows him to eat things at will because of the greed.But unfortunately nobody who ate that devil fruits survived past thirty five years.

The Doctor,Ishi.He ate a devil fruit which allows him to heal and injure a person at will.But it becomes harder if the enemy is very strong.

There is also the mysterious shadow,Kage.He ate the mysterious Shadow Devil Fruit and can become a shadow and steal one’s shadow.

“Guys,are you ready?” Kuro grinned.”We can’t let evil pirates get hold of our home right guys?” He continued,they nodded.”Then let’s go!” He continued.

Two weeks later.

At a snowy island reaching a thousand kilometers in space thousands to hundreds of thousands of people started to move.They were preparing for the war,the war which would decide the fate of the Four Seas.Most of the people moving were Avengers,reaching a half.A quarter were marines and another quarter were commoners or beggars.Walls were built at the middle of the island,two actually if you count the other one.

“Run faster!The pirates of the Golden Sword Crew are faster!”A Marine Captain roared.”YES!” The Allied Troops shouted in confidence.

The other side was even more lively.

“CRUSH MARINES!”

“KILL THE DAMN ANTS!”

“WE HAVE OUR BOSS WITH US!”

Meanwhile at the sea…

Hundreds to thousands of ships from small to big were heading to there.

“That bastard,Golden Ant thinks our four seas would just sit down and hear him shout that oath?FUCK HIM!” A pirate with only an eye and a pirate hat roared.He was a well known pirate with a bounty of twenty million beri!

“Golden Sword?Golden my ass!He is just a mere pirate from the Southern Sea!Let alone the first half of the grandline even it’s beginning is impossible from him!”

Another pirate even more well known roared.

But behind every ship,a few tens of kilometers a huge ship was heading there.It was the Shirokuro Crew!Thanks to Ketsu,the speed of the ship was a few tens of times faster than the average huge ships.

“Are we there?” Kuro asked bored.”Not yet…”Haken who was at the top,Crow’s Nest said.Yuki was in her room,the Navigator’s Cabin drawing maps.Ketsu was fixing something in the first floor.The main deck was filled with grass and was green making it more lively.Haken had improved quite a lot since two weeks ago.

“Ah,I can see the island!” A few minutes later Haken exclaimed loudly,waking Kuro.Kuro ran towards the end of the main deck and saw the island,even though it was really vague and blur.Close to the island he could see hundreds of pirate ships and a few tens of marine ship.There were a few giants in the marine side.

Giants were a race which now were more in numbers than before and could now live to four hundred years.A part of them decided to leave their village and become pirates or mercenaries.They became one of the most destruction weapons which humans used it wars and battles.

“Let’s go!” Kuro added his lightning to speed the ship and they went way faster.

***

The Pirates on the ships heard sounds behind and then looked.They saw a ship,a huge ship.When they saw the flag their eyes were wide.”Who are they?”The ship was coming closer and closer.”Isn’t it coming way too fast?”The ship was destroyed.

Kuro grinned.”OPEN THE WAY!”
