The Great Pirate Era.
The great seas surge and churn, powerhouses destroy and annihilate, each fighting their own battles. It's utterly—
Demotivating!
I, Russil Kuro, age tw...
This move can turn someone into an idiot!
Now, he couldn't care less about taming his subordinates; his priority was to eliminate this threatening bearded man. He wouldn't be at peace until he saw him die with his own eyes.
Because he saw that beneath the white mist, the chains binding David, whom he had almost tamed, were gradually solidifying.
Everything that was contaminated by the white mist developed a problem.
The chain pierced Cass's heart, instantly freezing his movements.
He closed his eyes, experiencing the intellectual impact brought about by these numerous nobles.
Nobles are the noble and should be supported by the common people. The common people are like sheep, and the nobles are like shepherds. No matter what it is, whether it is the navy, pirates or anything else, they are not to be feared, because they are the longest-lasting beings in this world.
That idea of innate bloodline and legal principles impacted Cass's mind and head.
It made him feel...
"How despicable!"
Cass opened his eyes and glared at Karami.
In that instant, a massive and fierce aura emanated from his body, and the surrounding white mist stirred instantly, like a giant maw that could devour people, opening its mouth to swallow them whole.
The aura emanating from it caused Karami to momentarily freeze, then his whole body trembled—a subconscious, instinctive tremor.
David, who had finally managed to catch his breath amidst the white mist, suddenly turned around and exclaimed incredulously, "This aura... Cass, you actually have it..."
Conqueror's Haki!
I have a feeling I can't be wrong, that's the domineering aura of Conqueror's Haki.
"Unwavering justice will never yield to any evil!"
Cass began to stride forward. "How could those so-called human thoughts shake my sense of justice? If they could be so easily shaken, how could I follow Mr. Kuro! Don't underestimate my sense of justice, don't underestimate the mind I have cultivated under Mr. Kuro's tutelage!!"
The chains materialized and were covered in a layer of white mist, rapidly surging towards those with chains around their hearts.
Click!
With a crisp sound, the chain on the chest of a G-3 Navy soldier detached as white vapor entered his chest, turning into a phantom and disappearing.
This seemed to ignite a fuse, and the chains binding the hearts of other naval personnel and kingdom soldiers all fell at that moment.
The white mist also surged into the hearts of the nobles, causing them to shudder. They were first bewildered, and then their eyes welled up with tears.
“I don’t know why, but I always feel… I’ve let my people down. They’re living well now, so I’m doing a good job as their lord. They respect me, so why should I continue to enslave them?” A nobleman touched his heart, feeling somewhat distressed.
“Damn it, I remembered my grandfather’s words. He told me to treat my people well, and if I treat them well, they will treat me well in return…” another nobleman said.
Karami took a step back, his hand trembling as he pointed at the nobles, and said, "You, you've rebelled too!"
Click!
David suddenly stood up, the chains on his chest came off, and in that instant, an aura of dominance enveloped him.
The reason I was hit before was because I was careless and was struck by the ability before I could activate my Haki, but this ability can be blocked by Haki.
But once he loses his abilities, Karami... is just a weakling.
“I am deeply ashamed, sir, that you, such a despicable person, have managed to gain the upper hand.”
David gripped his greatsword and strode forward, a swirling aura of power rising from the blade as he slashed directly at Karami's head. "I'll apologize to the master after I've killed you!!"
