Pirate: My bounty can’t be only 100

"Sweet Sugar Curtain!"

Balls of brownish-red syrup were shot out from Lauripa's fists, forming a barrage covering the sky, and countless syrup cannonballs struck.

The people who were hit were stuck to the ground by the syrup. As the syrup gradually solidified, people gradually lost their ability to move.

The curtain turned into syrup was cast down, and Bartolomeo seemed unable to escape, so he crossed the middle and index fingers of his hands.

"Defensive barrier!"

A green barrier appeared, blocking a syrup cannonball, and the syrup stuck to his barrier.

Then Lauripa turned into syrup and quickly came to him, opened her fingers, and the syrup spread quickly, trying to bypass the barrier and wrap Bartolomeo.

Bartolomeo seemed to have had a premonition of his end. With a move of his finger, the limited barrier area surrounded him, forming a sphere to wrap him.

He defended himself in all directions without blind spots, and the syrup also wrapped the barrier in all directions without blind spots. The thick syrup firmly adhered to the barrier no matter how it changed shape.

Bartolomeo didn't dare to relax his fingers and could only try to maintain the barrier, unable to break through the thick syrup.

This is why he was so scared when he saw Lauripa, even though he had the "barrier fruit", he would not be harmed.

But... what's the difference between being trapped here and going to jail!

He can only escape every time when it rains and the rain washes away the syrup.

Just as he begged for rain, a curtain of water fell from the sky.

A human figure gradually appeared in the water, that was Riel Wood!

As the water continued to dilute the syrup, Bartolomeo saw hope of escape.

Wait a minute, why can the other party turn into water?

Ward saw his doubts and laughed:

"I am the Water Man who ate the 'Water Fruit', Riel Ward!"

Lauripa gritted her teeth and watched the people trapped in the syrup on the ground struggling to escape.

She punched hard, and the huge fist turned into syrup rushed towards Ward.

"Candy Punch!"

Ward accumulated strength with his backhand, and the water on his arm surged like a violent wave.

"High pressure water gun!"

The water column rushes out and collides with the syrup, and the syrup is continuously dissolved. The sugar content in the water continues to increase and turns into syrup.

However, in terms of strength, the current Ward cannot compare with the captain from the Navy Headquarters, the supernova "Sweetheart" Lolipa in the Navy.

The sugar water composed of water and syrup splashed everywhere, and Ward found that his arm gradually became sticky.

I don't know when the syrup had gradually covered his arms. Ward immediately retracted his attack, and a huge syrup fist hit him.

boom!

Ward was hit by syrup, and a little water seemed insignificant in front of the large amount of syrup.

His body became sticky and his movements became sluggish.

Ward struggled to free himself from the thick syrup, and only managed to regain his mobility after flushing his body with water.

Immediately afterwards, Lauripa appeared in front of him with a lollipop in her mouth, her face close to his, and the sweetness filled the air.

The corners of Lauripa's mouth raised slightly and she said softly:

"caught you."

She hugged Ward with both hands, and the syrup spread quickly. Ward's clear water became turbid and rich, until the syrup spread. Ward wanted to turn into water and break free but couldn't.

The opponent has armed domineering power!

He gritted his teeth. There were really many people who mastered "Haki" in the Navy Headquarters, but in a place like the East China Sea, "Haki" was rarely known.

Before long, Ward was transformed into a sugar statue.

Just as Bartolomeo was about to sneak away, he was stopped by Lauripa. He consciously summoned a barrier, and then the syrup wrapped the barrier in all directions without blind spots.

Bartolomeo crossed his hands on his chest, keeping his fingers trapped in the circle and not daring to relax them at all, even if they cramped.

At this time, water seeped out of Ward's statue again, and the statue was about to dissolve.

A handcuff was pressed against him, and Ward collapsed and fell to the ground.

"Uh... I don't have any strength anymore." He raised his limp hands and was put into sea-floor stone handcuffs.

Lauripa looked at Ward who was lying on the ground, with three lollipops still in his mouth.

With a look of disdain, he shouted to his men:

"I will issue an announcement now. Tomorrow morning I will execute the death penalty on the extremely vicious 'Lollipop Killer' in the Rogue Town Square!"

Ward closed his eyes slightly and almost fell asleep. This was the first time he experienced the taste of sea floor stone.

In addition to being unable to use his abilities, this feeling of powerlessness is really touching to the soul and difficult to overcome.

He even felt that it was difficult for him to even stand up and walk, so he just lay down first.

I still have my companions.

……

In the dead of night, a man's wailing could be heard in the square.

That was Bartolomeo who was trapped in his own barrier. He had been hungry for a day, and now...even the air was almost gone.

"Boss." A cry came from the darkness.

The chief of staff of the Bato Club, Gambia, came with a group of younger brothers to rescue their boss.

But... the people in this club seem to have no brains.

"Boss, how should we save you?" Gambia, with his white hair standing up exaggeratedly and a pair of nunchucks on his waist, asked.

He raised his nunchaku and hit it hard on the syrup. Then his nunchucks stuck to the syrup and gradually sank in.

"You are stupid, of course you are begging for rain!" Bartolomeo shouted from inside the barrier, and his answer was not - "dilute the syrup with water."

Instead, he asked his men to beg for rain!

He had kept the gesture of crossing his middle and index fingers, but now his two fingers were numb and almost unconscious.

The Gambia is known as a "missionary", and now he actually starts asking his men to arrange ceremonies and start praying for rain!

After a long day of tossing, Bartolomeo felt suffocated. He fell to the ground and looked at the execution platform.

There was thunder falling from the sky before Luffy-senpai was executed, why didn't I get rain from the sky?

At this time, he thought of the captured Riel Ward, who was lucky enough to be shot on the high platform where Senior Luffy had been executed.

What a lifetime honor.

And am I going to die here?

He refused to lift the barrier until his death, and I don’t know what was wrong with his brain.

At this time, Gambia thought of a universal method.

I saw him taking out a wrinkled phone bug and dialing the number.

beep.

After a while, a slow old woman's voice came from the phone.

"Grandma!" Bartolomeo and everyone in the club's eyes lit up, as if they were grasping at a life-saving straw.

"Little Bato, did you encounter any problems again?"

"Grandma, boss, he's trapped in syrup again. It's cloudless now, so it's useless to pray for rain." Gambia looked anxious.

"Xiao Bea, if it doesn't rain, you can use buckets to collect water nearby."

"But be careful...save water..." Grandma explained many common sense of life to them.

In the end, Bartolomeo was rescued before everyone could be happy.

A curtain of syrup fell, trapping everyone.

Lauripa looked at the people in the Bato Club and pressed her forehead. These people... are you sure they won't starve to death after going to sea?

They are lucky to have been caught by me. I have been waiting here for a long time.

"Wasting my time."

Little did they know that Bartolomeo would later become a pirate supernova with a bounty of over 100 million.
