The tide of people was unstoppable.
The soldiers stood there, seemingly still reeling from the reality, when the surging crowd had already rushed towards them.
Pfft!
The leader, Sag, jumped first and chopped a soldier on the head with his hoe.
The sharp edge of the hoe dented the soldier's helmet, causing his head to cave in as he fell to the ground.
The others swarmed forward, and a burly man smashed the soldier's skull with a hoe, leaving it dented. The other soldiers were riddled with holes by the hoes.
"Yes, I did it!"
The burly man who had dented the soldier's skull exclaimed incredulously, "I did it!"
He had never imagined such a thing; it had never been in his life.
"Ah...right! I've been working in the mines for the past five years, and my strength has increased!" the burly man exclaimed in surprise.
Others had similar reactions.
Sager picked up the dead soldier's flintlock pistol, holding it in one hand and a hoe in the other, and shouted into the town from the street: "Rebel! People!! We will not be oppressed like this anymore!! We will take our own hope and our own right to live!!"
"Never again, I want to be bullied!!!"
As he roared, thousands of people who came out of the mine roared back.
The sound instantly spread throughout the entire town.
The Conqueror's Haki was fully unleashed at this moment.
"Hey, no way..."
Kuro stared wide-eyed from above, "Is this guy's Conqueror's Haki range that wide? Is this not his first time awakening it?"
Under the influence of Observation Haki, the emotional fluctuations throughout the entire town surged dramatically.
In a house being looted by pirates, a man covered in bruises collapsed. Upon hearing this sound, a flicker of emotion appeared in his numb eyes. He looked at a pirate ransacking the place, gritted his teeth so hard they almost bled.
Then, he suddenly stood up, and before the pirate could react, he snatched the knife from his hand and stabbed it into the pirate's body.
This man is much stronger than a pirate.
Similarly, in the other rooms.
An old man watched as two of the merchant's henchmen were pulling at his daughter, preparing to put a rope around her and sell her. He reached for the flintlock pistol hanging on the wall.
Bang! Bang!
Two gunshots rang out from inside the house.
Once upon a time, this old man was a very famous hunter...
Similar incidents were happening all over the town. Amidst the roars of so many people, they all came out of their homes, their eyes filled with intense emotions.
"I'm done!"
The old man with the gun walked out with his tearful daughter. The old man gritted his teeth and said, "I will resist!!"
"I'm done!"
The same voice came from another burly man wielding a blood-stained blade: "I want to start a new life!!"
Regardless of age or gender, armed or unarmed, people took to the streets in the torrential rain, continuously expanding the massive crowd.
Once a spark is ignited, it can quickly spread like wildfire.
Once ignited...
And the one who ignited it was this boy with Conqueror's Haki.
Most people can't generate that kind of influence.
Seeing this, Kuro in the sky had a sudden realization. "So that's how it is. Is this the level you want... No wonder this boy has more injuries than anyone else."
As more and more people arrived, Sag's face grew increasingly joyful.
We did it!
It was done with ease!
He had never thought of rebelling, but he never imagined that rebelling would be so easy and so simple!
It's true, they really can have hope!!
"Avenge the king!!!"
With a roar from Sag, a large group of people surged toward the royal palace at the innermost part of the town.
The surge of the crowd and the loud noise alerted the pirate crews gathered nearby.
There was more than one tavern in the town. Apart from Dick's, the other taverns had also been taken over by pirates, but the environment was naturally not as good as Dick's.
Hearing the noise, they all came out, and then...
"Hey, what are you doing!"
"No! No!!"
Faced with that overwhelming tide of people, all resistance was futile.
People were killed, weapons were stolen, and in the face of an emotionally charged mob, a few scattered pirates were completely powerless.
"Waaaaah!"
After killing a pirate, a girl suddenly knelt down and burst into tears.
"My husband, my father... If only, if only it had been sooner, if only they hadn't died!"
Faced with her weeping, the crowd fell into an unusual silence, followed by a surge of anger.
yes!
Pirates are nothing special!
They will die too!
He will be killed by his own hands.
They can do it!
It's not too late now!!
Meanwhile, Dick, watching this scene from the tavern window in the distance, was trembling all over.
We did it!
That man in the straw hat did it!
After he disappeared, the people here rioted!
They were going to the royal palace...
Royal Palace...
Dick gritted his teeth, his gaze fixed on the bar. He walked over and suddenly slammed his fist into the bar.
Bang!!
The wooden bar counter was smashed, and Dick, ignoring the blood on the back of his hand, pulled out from the crack in the smashed bar.
With an even louder roar, the entire wooden bar was lifted up, revealing a massive spear with a blade a third of the way in his hand.
"I should also put an end to this!" Dick's gaze gradually hardened.
"Damn it! What have you done?!"
At the front of the surging crowd, inside a tavern, a man who looked like a captain raised a pistol, poked his head out of the tavern door, and pointed a shot at Sager at the front, shouting, "How dare you defy us! Die!!"
Bang!
The bullet was launched in response.
Whoosh!
However, at that instant, a shooting star flashed across the sky, and something swiftly struck, shattering the bullet and flying towards the captain.
Boom!!!
The tavern was riddled with holes, and a large spear was embedded in the ground, piercing deep inside. The captain was impaled by the spear blade and was beyond dead.
"I'm with you all!!"
Dick's voice rang out from behind.
He limped over and said resolutely, "I also have something to settle with Klein Og!"
"Oh...he's regained his will?"
Above, Kuro raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
Originally, he intended to take action and eliminate those pirates.
But after thinking about it...
It doesn't seem suitable.
However, given the current situation, letting them take down the pirates themselves is probably the wisest choice.
If his guess is correct.
So...
Kuro looked toward the direction of the royal palace, where the crowd was surging, a complex expression on his face.
However, we still need to verify the truth.
After all, the new world is full of all sorts of strange and wonderful things.
