Arrival at Cazorla Island

Two days later.

On a sea area very close to Cazorla Island.

Two pirate ships approached each other.

This world is full of pirates, and there is a high probability of a fight occuring after two pirates encounter each other in the sea.

The reason is mostly greed.

After all, this is a world of pirates.

Even if there are pirates who don't seek money, but freedom and adventure, most of the pirates are greedy.

As long as they can plunder money, they will take action.

This is the case at this time.

Of course, Mio was completely passive. He was approached by a pirate ship that was just passing by, and then a battle broke out.

However, it was the other party who paid the price.

Puff!

A silver-haired Erica wielded a long sword in her hand, accompanied by a silver sword aura.

Evey time she swung her sword, a fresh life was taken.

Warwick's sharp claws were merciless, like the reaper's sickle harvesting the lives of the ship's pirates.

And Mio who was holding his weapon tightly at this time, looked at a pirate in front of him, with the corners of his mouth rising.

"A bounty of 4.7 million Berries, Jax Bloodhand."

"Hey, you have heard my name and still dare to fight against me. I can only say that you are very courageous." A grinning smile appeared on Jax's face, and his weapon was a spiked mace.

After the accompanying sound fell, he swung his mace towards Mio and attacked.

The swing of the mace made a sound of breaking through the air. Coupled with Jax's sturdy body, anyone would be careful of this stick.

However, Mio didn't panic, he just waved his weapon upwards.

A spark of 'clang' splashed everywhere, blocking the attack.

Immediately after a slight shock, a powerful force burst out and sent the mace into the air, and Jax's figure couldn't help but step back a few steps.

He had a look of horror on his face, as if he hadn't expected this result at all. He didn't think that there was such a great power hidden in this petite man.

"One sword style! Ghost flash!"

Cold words came from Mio's throat, and then Jax suddenly shrank his pupils, and he felt a sense of death.

He really felt death.

He subconsciously wanted to wave his mace to block it, but just as he was about to make a move, a blood mark appeared on his neck, and Mio's figure quietly appeared behind him.

A trace of blood slipped on the edge of the sword in Mio's hand, dripping onto the deck.

[Congratulations on your inclusion of the (pirate) human gene.]

"A human head worth four million Berries, if you didn't take the initiative to attack me, maybe I would have missed it." The corner of Mio's mouth rose, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

He sheathed his weapon.

Jax's head was also falling, and the unwillingness to die was still seen in his eyes.

After lifting the head, Mio directly tore off Jax's clothes, wrapped the head and hung it around his waist.

Looking around, more than a dozen pirates were already dead and were fleeing under the joint hands of Warwick and Erica.

Only blood and corpses were left on the deck, and the air was filled with waves of strong smell of blood.

"Master, except for the three who escaped, the others are all dead."

The petite Erica walked quickly to Mio's face, looking up at her master.

Seeing this, Mio smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Erica's head, "Good job."

Warwick was originally just an ordinary wolf. But Erica was originally an upgraded ant.

Perhaps because of this, Erica's IQ is much higher than Warwick's, and she learns things much faster.

At least now, Erica knew how to get a compliment from Mio.

When she was touched by Mio's hand, Erica couldn't help narrowing her eyes, and after actively rubbing her head on Mio's palm, the two tentacles on her head shook, showing her inner joy.

"Warwick, go to the cabin to see if there are any treasures. If there are any, we will take them away. We should leave soon." Mio looked at Warwick and ordered.

Warwick nodded, "Warwick got it."

After speaking, he walked towards the cabin.

Mio looked into the distance, and a black spot appeared in his line of sight, that was Cazorla Island.

Mio smiled again, "When I arrive at Cazorla Islamd, I'll go and exchange the head for the bounty first, and then I'll go buy some weapons."

With that said, he looked at his weapon, and there were already chips in the blade.

After acquiring the 'Swordsmanship' ability, Mio began to learn from Zoro in the original book, and trained his swordsmanship every day.

Well, of course, it's just simple practice, such as hacking and slashing.

In addition, when encountering battles along the way, Mio chose to deal with the strongest opponent.

All this allowed Mio's strength to grow rapidly in a short period of time. He gained a lot of combat experience, and at the same time learned the importance of a good weapon.

This time he hoped that Cazorla Island could bring him some surprises.

Shaking his head, Mio stopped thinking about it.

Not long after returning to the boat with Erica, Warwick returned with a treasure chest.

Looking at the chest full of gold coins, Mio was immediately happy.

"With this box of treasures, aren't I a rich man now?" Mio thought excitedly.

'If I exchange the gold coins I own for Berries, my net worth should now be at least 10 million Berries.'

"Master, a lot of money." Erica couldn't help but feel excited looking at the gold coins in the treasure chest.

After reading some books, Erica was also clear about some daily knowledge.

Mio also smiled and nodded, "Yes, a lot of money, with this, I can buy you a good weapon."

"Thank you Master." Upon hearing this, Erica's face showed a happy smile.

Warwick stood quietly to the side, and looked at the paws on his hands, lost in thought.

'Should I break my claws and use a sword as a weapon?'

Mio naturally didn't know Warwick's inner thoughts.

With the rapid advance of the ship, Cazorla Island gradually expanded in Mio's line of sight, and the appearance of this island completely entered Mio's line of sight.

"Put a cloak on, we should go to the island to stroll around." Mio said while looking at the two.

Among them, Erica is like a human, but there are also tentacles on her forehead.

Although there is Devil Fruit in this world, Erica is still very pretty, and she may attract the attention of some pirates.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better to put on a cloak.

After the two nodded obediently, they put on their cloaks and completely covered their bodies.

Soon, the ship docked.

As far as the port is concerned, there is no pirate ship here.

After all, there is a Marine sub-base on this island, and this is why Mio can safely dock the ship without having to stay behind to guard the ship.
