Chapter 1 The World of One Piece
Chapter 1 The World of One Piece
1517 in the Haiyuan calendar.
At this moment, a pirate invasion is taking place in Loguetown, East Blue.
Pirates are slaughtering civilians indiscriminately on the streets of Loguetown.
Whether old, young, or women, none could escape being tortured and killed. The women suffered the most, first being toyed with by these pirates and then killed.
The captain of the Azure Wolf Pirates, "Azure Wolf," watched the scene unfold and laughed wildly. He shouted, "Men, kill them! Don't let them escape!" (Azure Wolf is not the main character.)
The crew of the Blue Wolf Pirates were even more excited upon hearing their captain's words, their eyes gleaming with murderous intent. They were ready to become executioners or rape the women of Loguetown.
For pirates, every day is a constant struggle, a life lived on the edge. They're so afraid of dying that they might as well enjoy life.
Seeing his subordinates unleash their true nature, Canglang became excited and agitated. But in an instant, anger and fear flashed in his eyes.
The Blue Wolf Pirates are the dominant force in the East Blue.
And he, Canglang, is a "great pirate" with a bounty of forty million.
In the East China Sea, he could have anything he wanted. But he never expected…
Rewind to half a month ago, when the Blue Wolf Pirates were sailing at sea, they unexpectedly encountered the Navy sailing at sea, and the leader of the Navy was none other than the famous Navy Lieutenant Commander "White Hunter Smoker".
The Wolf had long heard of Smoker, the White Hunter, but he paid it no heed. He considered Smoker a useless Marine, and his reputation was nothing more than an exaggeration.
So he directly provoked Smoker on the ship.
The cold-blooded wolf said, "Isn't this the famous Smoker?! Where are we going?"
Smoker frowned; he knew the wolf's identity the moment it appeared.
This made Smoker's already bad mood even worse. He had just been scolded by Fleet Admiral Sengoku for disobeying orders from the Marine Headquarters.
Now that he's seen a mere pirate trying to provoke him, Smoker is extremely annoyed.
Smoker had already decided to give this pirate a good beating and, incidentally, capture him and send him to Impel Down to experience prison life.
Having thought about all this, Smoker's worries had subsided. He then looked at the wolf with disdain and said, "What are you so arrogant about, you mere pirate!"
When the wolf saw that Smoker was showing him no respect, his expression turned extremely cold.
Without further ado, Canglang ordered his men to fire on the naval ships.
Upon hearing the captain's words, his men quickly set up cannons and opened fire on the naval ship.
bang bang
Black cannonballs flew through the air toward the navy ship.
Suddenly, a dark mass appeared before the navy personnel. This caused some of them to panic, unsure of what to do.
Looking at these cowardly navy men, Smoker's face darkened, and he was about to be reprimanded. Suddenly, a melodious female voice rang out on the battlefield.
It was a slender young woman, holding a dagger and wearing glasses. She shouted, "Don't panic, everyone! Trust Major Smoker, he'll protect us!"
This is a girl named Tashigi. She stands out on the battlefield. It's hard to imagine that a woman could be so calm and composed on this battlefield.
Although he was only a corporal, he was quite well-known at the Loguetown Naval Base.
Upon hearing Tashigi's words, the sailors stopped their panic and took measures to deal with the incoming shells.
Smoker was very pleased to see Tashigi's outstanding performance. (The child has grown up!)
Smoker had no time to praise Tashigi; he could only instruct the helmsman to avoid the shells. He himself transformed into a white smoke and charged into the shells.
Smoker is a Logia-type Devil Fruit user, so he is naturally not afraid of cannonballs.
Amidst the cannonballs, Smoker directly used his Devil Fruit ability, slowly uttering, "White Fist."
His hands turned into white smoke as he charged straight into the pile of shells.
The shells hit by Smoker's smoke were rendered ineffective and failed to explode. However, some shells still managed to fly towards the top of the naval ships.
Perhaps due to the established setting of the One Piece world, or perhaps because the Navy's helmsmen were exceptionally skilled, the warships completely avoided the cannonballs and remained unaffected.
Seeing his helmsman's impressive performance, Smoker grinned. He then leaped onto the Blue Wolf Pirates' ship and unleashed a powerful punch at the crew.
Before the Blue Wolf Pirates could react, they saw Smoker use his Devil Fruit ability to unleash a white fist attack on them.
In their haste, the members of the Blue Wolf Pirates could only scramble to escape in a panic. But where could they hide on this ship? More than half of the pirates were instantly killed by Smoker's shockwave.
Seeing his subordinate killed by Smoker, the wolf could no longer bear it. With a roar, he charged directly at Smoker.
Smoker saw the wolf ambush him but didn't take it seriously. The wolf was a Logia-type Devil Fruit user, and as long as Armament Haki wasn't used, it couldn't harm him.
In the weak East Blue, Smoker possesses the Logia-type Devil Fruit, making him virtually invincible.
As expected, although the wolf struck Smoker, Smoker's body transformed into a flowing, liquid mist.
Upon witnessing this bizarre scene, the wolf cried out in disbelief, "Are you a Logia-type Devil Fruit user?"
Canglang hadn't expected Smoker to be a Devil Fruit user. He hadn't paid any attention to Smoker's information before, thinking it was all an exaggeration.
Although Devil Fruit users are rare in the Four Seas, the Wolf still knows about Devil Fruits. He also knows that there are three types of Devil Fruits (Logia, Zoan, and Paramecia).
While searching for treasure on an island, the Blue Wolf Pirates obtained a strangely shaped fruit, which turned out to be a Devil Fruit.
The wolf knew that it was something that could change his fate, so he ate the unknown fruit directly.
After eating the Devil Fruit, the Azure Wolf's body changed, transforming into a wolf. Clearly, the Azure Wolf obtained a Zoan-type Devil Fruit: Zoan-type Dog-Dog Fruit, Azure Wolf form!
After obtaining a Zoan-type Devil Fruit, the Wolf of the Blue Sea thrived in the East Blue with his immense power, killing many pirates step by step and becoming the "overlord" of the East Blue.
In past battles, the Azure Wolf has encountered Zoan-type and Paramecia-type Devil Fruit users, but he has never encountered a Logia-type Devil Fruit user.
Seeing the changes in Smoker's body made him think that perhaps only Logia-type Devil Fruits could produce such a special effect.
Smoker saw the wolf's question and a smug look appeared on his face. He then slowly said, "I am Smoker, a lieutenant commander in the Navy, and also a Logia-type Smoke-Smoke Fruit user."
