One Piece: Transform into the Eight Great Demons!

Chapter 23 Questions

call out--

boom! boom! boom! boom……

The shelling continued.

The CP organization guard under the command of the Celestial Dragon Saint Lorvim took over the navy's blocking points on the island at an extremely fast speed.

These points were originally intended to intercept Alvin Lindsay, but in order to avoid accidentally injuring civilians, most of the weapons used were swords and very few muskets.

But the CP organization doesn't care about this.

They are private security forces directly affiliated with Saint Lorvim. They are only responsible to Saint Lorvim and are completely obedient to his orders.

Therefore, with no regard for the life and death of civilians, powerful thermal weapons were used as soon as possible.

There are even extremely expensive "hand-held portable artillery"!

Moreover, the target of this group of CP guards is not only Alvin Lindsay, but also all the people who escaped, and they will never let anyone go.

…

boom!

"Damn it...damn it!"

After the bombardment, a figure in a tattered sailor uniform broke out of the black smoke, running stumbled all the way.

He was one of the slaves in the arena, and he was also a pirate captain with a bounty of 40 million berries.

While sailing near the Chambord Islands, he was betrayed by his crew and eventually became a slave, surviving to this day.

Now that he has the opportunity to regain his freedom, he is certainly not willing to give up easily.

However, Alvin Lindsay's act of killing the Tianlong people was indeed a world-class felony, which caused the CP organization and the navy to act at the same time, making it more difficult to escape at sea!

"It was that monster lunatic who killed the Tianlong people. Go catch him quickly. Why are you staring at me?"

The pirate captain couldn't help but cursed loudly.

When he escaped to a residential area, he was trying to find a boat that could go out to sea, but he was discovered by the CP guards patrolling here.

The CP guards didn't hesitate at all, they directly set up the hand-held artillery and were about to pull the trigger.

Seeing this, the pirate captain was so anxious that he grabbed a little girl who was hiding on the street and threatened the CP guards:

"I have hostages in my hands, you don't dare to fire!"

"..."

The CP guards did not answer, but slowly approached.

Is it to appease the pirate captain? Or... for better aim?

The pirate captain suddenly felt his scalp numb, he smiled dryly and stammered: "You don't dare to fire, right?"

Click!

The sound of the trigger being pulled sounded, and the shell was fired!

Just when the pirate captain and the little girl were about to be shot together, in an instant, a black shadow rushed towards them. It was more than six meters tall, huge and alien-shaped, and stopped in front of the two of them.

boom!

The shell hit the black shadow's body, and the black smoke produced by the explosion quickly covered the three people.

When the smoke slowly dissipated, Lindsay in Digui form was seen standing firmly on the ground with her arms raised, only slightly stained with gunpowder.

Unscathed!

In fact, Lindsay has a "body", with skin and blood that are the same as ordinary people, and is not as indestructible as ancient stone monuments.

But the ability he possesses is that of an animal-type phantom beast species that is even rarer than the natural type. In a completely animalized state, Lindsay's defense power is equally astonishing.

Even without the use of armed Haki, mere guns and cannonballs can't hurt him at all!

Maybe a great swordsman-level slash would do?

Lindsay isn't sure, he hasn't tried it yet, so he would like to try it if he gets the chance...

"Phew, I'm... saved..."

The pirate captain was breathing heavily, but his hands still followed his muscle memory and still strangled the little girl's neck.

He was originally a wanted criminal and often relied on coercing hostages to escape the Navy's pursuit, but it was useless against CP guards.

"Hello."

Just as the pirate captain was lamenting that he survived the catastrophe, another figure appeared, stood behind him, and tapped his shoulder with his finger.

The pirate captain didn't know why and turned to look back.

At the same time, the figure stretched out his left arm and took the little girl hostage in the pirate captain's hand.

"What?"

The pirate captain was a little confused. When he looked up, he saw a red fish-man face.

It was Fisher Tiger who was on the same road as Lindsay!

"任

Before the pirate captain even finished a word, Tiger covered the little girl's eyes with his left hand. At the same time, he raised his right arm high, clenched his fist, and smashed it down.

"rat!"

Boom!

The pirate captain was smashed directly into the ground and died beyond death.

Tiger values loyalty very much, so naturally he looks down on the despicable pirates who hold a little girl hostage.

Even if he is also a slave who escaped from the arena, he cannot agree with such behavior!

"It's okay, hide in a safe place."

Tiger gently let go of the little girl, but couldn't help but frown slightly and looked at Lindsay in front of him.

"The situation is a bit troublesome..."

Tiger, who was once a slave, certainly knew that the so-called "slaves" were actually a mixed group of guys.

Among them are not only innocent adventurers or civilians, but also many wanted criminals and desperadoes!

This group of people also regained their freedom and scattered throughout the Chambord Islands, causing all kinds of commotions.

From this perspective, Alvin Lindsay's act of freeing all slaves seems... wrong?

Not right either.

Fischer Tiger's character is very direct and easy to get into trouble.

The scenes he was witnessing now made him somewhat confused as to what kind of feelings he should have towards "human beings".

What about those who were also slaves?

Should a bastard as despicable as that pirate captain be stripped of his slave collar?

Tiger is really confused.

Maybe Princess Otohime can give her the answer, or maybe even she can't explain it clearly.

So complicated...

But no matter what, there is one thing Tiger must do now, and that is to escape from the Shampoo Islands!

…

"move."

Tiger stepped forward and patted Lindsay on the shoulder, then continued to move forward.

But in the next second——

Lindsay suddenly stretched out her hand, grabbed Tiger, and threw him back hard.

At the same time, a sharp sword energy slashed diagonally, almost passing by Tiger's head!

Zheng!

With just one blow, a large area of civilian houses was cut open, and the cuts were extremely clean.

"Tsk!"

A dark shadow flashed past, it was a CP swordsman who was good at using swords.

Seeing that the sneak attack failed, he planned to leave temporarily and wait for another opportunity.

But before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground.

It turned out that Lindsay had activated Diqui's ability and tore a small hole under the CP swordsman's feet, restricting the opponent's steps.

Before the CP swordsman could react, Lindsay had already rushed in front of him, grabbed a piece of earth and stone from the ground, smashed it down hard, and buried him in the ground.

After getting rid of the swordsman, Lindsay knocked on the ground lightly again. Sensing that there were no more people from the CP organization around, he called Tiger to leave as soon as possible.

Crocodile is not the kind of person who is afraid of trouble. He always likes to look for opportunities, so he must still be waiting at the port!

Seeing this, Tiger nodded and stepped to follow.

But at this moment, a small piece of black shadow suddenly hit Lindsay.

He looked down and saw that it was an ordinary stone. It was so inconspicuous that the Dikui form could not even feel it.

"Um?"

Lindsay turned around and looked in the direction where the stone was thrown.

Among the ruins of the house, a boy about ten years old was staring at Lindsay, with his bedridden mother behind him.

Most of their houses have been damaged and turned into completely dilapidated buildings that can no longer be inhabited.

"What a bastard!"

The young man growled and gritted his teeth: "I listened to the radio. It was because you let those bastard pirates go that our family was destroyed!"

"..."

The boy's body was shaking, worried that he would be killed by the terrifying "monster" in front of him.

But Tiger didn't pay much attention.

Alvin Lindsay, a human being, is too cheerful and does not seem like someone who would be aroused by these words.

But Tiger never expected that Lindsay would stop, look back at the boy, and growl in a hoarse voice: "You are the bastard!"

Tiger: "?"

But Lindsay continued to stare at the trembling boy and yelled, "Let me ask you, am I the one who destroyed your family?"

The young man paused, shook his head and said, "No... no."

"Am I the one who launched the indiscriminate bombardment?"

"no……"

"Is it me who just took innocent hostages?"

"No……"

The young man was already speechless and could only reluctantly retort: "But if you..."

"What if I?"

Lindsay clenched her thick fists and slammed them on the ground, causing the surrounding ground to tremble a few times.

"Are you trying to say that if I had been a slave with peace of mind, if I had not disobeyed the Celestial Dragons, and if I had been content with the status quo, this turmoil would not have happened at all?"

Lindsay's scarlet gaze was a little penetrating, and even Tiger could feel the distortion and anger in it.

"Are you trying to say that if the 'Rebel People' had never existed, life would be better for all of you!"

"Answer me, is the result of not resisting really safe and sound?"

"ha!"

"interesting!"

"..."

Lindsay wanted to stay where she was and continue to argue with the boy.

But this time, it was Tygra's turn to walk away from Lindsay.

The fishman took away the monster that was arguing with the child and walked forward without looking back.

Don't dare to look back.

Because countless confusions are shrouding Tiger's mind, making him more and more confused.

Is it "right" or "wrong" to start this riot?
