Chapter 72 The Rising Mushroom Egg (Please read on~)
East China Sea, Konomi Islands.
Here is a small human community consisting of about twenty villages.
Each village does not have a clear village chief or person in charge.
In contrast, there is a sheriff elected by the villagers to maintain the safety of the village.
In addition, the entire sea area is under the jurisdiction of the 16th Navy Branch...
In theory, this should be a quiet and peaceful place.
However, just eight years ago.
Because of a group of pirates released from prison, this place has completely become a gathering place for suffering and misfortune.
"When will this day end!"
Depressed Cocoa West Village.
A thin bookstore owner trembled and took out hundreds of thousands of Baileys and handed them to a weird-looking fishman.
Looking at the back of the fishman as he left, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Once upon a time, she was also an obese person troubled by the three high problems.
But since the arrival of the Dragon Pirates, the whole village has become dead.
I heard that another village was razed to the ground by the fishmen last month because of rebellion.
This is the fourth village that has completely disappeared. Hundreds of lives have died at the hands of evil people.
And if it continues like this, no one knows whether they will be the next target of the murder!
"God, please save us!"
"Please bring down divine punishment on those damned beasts!!!"
The bookstore owner clasped her hands together and prayed to the sky.
And at this moment, it seemed that the gods heard her prayers...
Boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Under the shocked eyes of the bookstore owner, a violent explosion suddenly resounded through the sky and spread throughout the Konomimi Islands!
Then there was a blazing fire accompanied by a huge mushroom cloud rising into the sky.
For a moment, all the residents in the nearby seas poked their heads out of their homes and looked in fear in the direction of the mushroom cloud.
In the village of Kokoyasi, Nami's sister Nokiko was originally observing the fish-man pirates with the sheriff Ken to prevent them from causing trouble in the village.
But the sudden change made the two of them look into the distance instantly.
"That... isn't that the location of the Dragon Empire!?"
"What happened!?"
Nokiko and Ken looked at each other and saw the doubt in each other's eyes.
After hesitating for a moment, the two immediately set off to check the situation in the abnormal area.
...
...
At the same time.
Outside the gate of the Dragon Empire, a large amount of black smoke was gushing out of the barrel of the bow of the Merry.
Usopp, who helped Nami hold the barrel, seemed to have evolved into a black dragon, and drilled out from the bottom of the cannon with an explosive head.
Surrounded by black smoke, he coughed a few times, then raised his head and looked forward through the observation port of the turret.
"Wow!!!" Usopp shouted in shock:
"It's worthy of being the Usopp special concentrated Buggy Bullet developed by me!"
"The power is amazing!!!"
"I am really a genius!!!"
Usopp, who looked funny, looked at his feat, and instantly laughed with his hands on his hips, his nose almost up to the sky.
When Akane saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile with approval.
"Not bad!"
He praised without reservation:
"Although it is an improvement on the formula of Buggy Bullet, with this one hand, Usopp, you really didn't disappoint everyone!!!"
Looking at the mushroom cloud over the Dragon Empire, the corners of his mouth raised even more.
The memory from their blood makes them think of the old acquaintances in Hiroshima and Nagasaki every time they see such a scene.
Of course, the shells that Usopp improved through the formula of Buggy Bullet gunpowder are definitely not comparable to the little boy.
But no matter what, the power of this shell is comparable to Luffy's attack in the third gear state!
Destroying a heavy naval warship is easy!
As for the Dragon Empire...
"Nami?"
Chihong turned around and saw Nami standing still behind the cannon. Her bright eyes were staring blankly at the Dragon Empire in the distance, which was like hell on earth.
The originally magnificent gate was completely gone, and it was shattered into powder under the baptism of artillery fire.
Even the surrounding walls collapsed.
In the pool in the center of the Dragon Empire, a huge pit suddenly appeared, and the surging sea water was pouring into it frantically.
And around the pit were the wreckage of the building burning with blazing flames.
Looking around, the bodies of the fishmen were scattered all over the ground.
Some were directly blasted into blood foam by the shells, and some were roasted into dried fish by the high temperature.
Even if some of them were lucky enough not to die, they were rolling and wailing with broken limbs at this time.
The scene was as tragic as it could be.
In order to let Nami experience the pleasure of revenge personally, Usopp specially gave the task of ignition to Nami.
It can be said that the current tragic situation of the Dragon Empire was all caused by Nami! ! !
"Ah!?"
Nami, who was called by Red, seemed to have just come back to her senses, and there was light in her eyes again.
But just when Red thought that she had thought of something bad and was secretly worried...
But Nami's fair face actually revealed an inexplicable blush.
Her eyes flashed with excitement, and she said to Akane and Usopp:
"It's so cool!!!"
"Akaane, Usopp, can I have another shot!?"
Being able to see the tragic scene of the fish people unable to live or die...
This is a beautiful scene that she has never dreamed of in many years!
At this moment, Nami seemed to be possessed by a sickly person. Although her face was filled with a bright smile, her hands had already been clenched into tight fists.
The hatred that had been suppressed for many years was finally eliminated, and the hardship and resentment in her heart were completely released.
"…………"
"…………"
Akaane and Usopp were stunned by Nami's state for a moment.
After a while, Akane spoke:
"I don't have any objection. The shells are meant to be used for shooting."
"But Usopp..."
Akaane turned her eyes and looked at Usopp, who looked embarrassed.
He scratched the back of his head in shame:
"Sorry, Nami."
"This is the first time I've made this kind of shell. I don't know how effective it is. Plus, the material cost alone is hundreds of thousands of Baileys, so I didn't make any extra ones."
"What!? Hundreds of thousands of Baileys!?"
When it came to such a sensitive topic as money, Nami instantly returned to her normal stingy state.
She immediately glanced at the miserable state of the Dragon Empire and said indignantly:
"Humph! They are so cheap!"
"It costs so much to die."
"Ah... hehe..." Usopp, who didn't know what to say, could only laugh dryly.
"Now is not the time to complain~"
At this time, Red suddenly interrupted, looking at a place in the ruins of the Dragon Empire and smiled:
"Your enemies haven't completely disappeared yet!"
"Huh!?"
Following Red's line of sight, Nami immediately saw several embarrassed figures emerging from the ruins of the Dragon Empire.
It was the leader of the Dragon Pirates, Arlong, and the two major cadres, Ju and Kroobi.
They were lucky.
Because of their position, although they were caught in the flames of Usopp's special shells, they did not suffer too much damage in the bombardment just now due to their hard power and physical strength.
In comparison, Xiao Ba, another cadre of the Dragon Pirates, was not so lucky.
When the shells fell, he happened to be in the center of the bombardment point, and was directly engulfed by the flames and impact force, and lost his life.
"Xiao Ba! Shioya! Xiao Wu!——"
Aaron, covered in dust, watched his empire of nearly ten years collapse in an instant, and his ferocious eyes were instantly occupied by blood, like a devil from hell.
The expressions of Ju and Kroobi on the side were not much better.
Looking at the corpses of their compatriots on the ground, their expressions were extremely ferocious.
The blazing flames roasted the bodies of the fishmen, emitting a strong aroma.
The hideous Aaron roared furiously:
"Who did this?!"
At this moment, a girl's cry suddenly came from the sea outside the Dragon Empire, responding to his question.
"I did it!!!"
The sudden familiar voice immediately attracted the attention of the three fishmen.
They immediately looked towards the source of the voice, and then their eyes froze.
"... Nami!?"
