One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 217: Chapter 217 Barrett promoted to core cadre



Not only Li Yuan, but also Esdeath and the others, he beat all the children of the entire giant tribe, and they even took the initiative to fight with some adult giants.

Unfortunately, they are too young, and fighting with those adult giants would just be asking for trouble.

Of course, there are exceptions. For example, Faraday who ate the Thunder Fruit could not be harmed by the non-dominant giant.

"We should go!"

A month later, Li Yuan called together all the members of the Wuji Pirates and announced their return.

There are thirty giants following Li Yuan. They are all giants selected by Li Yuan himself and are eligible to join the Wuji Pirates.

The leading giant is named Raditz, a giant who is only slightly weaker than Broki and the others. However, Li Yuan believes that after his special training, Raditz will definitely not be weaker than Broki, and may even be stronger.

"Captain, I would like to stay in Elbaf for a while."

Barrett, Green Pepper and Carlucano stood up and spoke.

They all like the warlike environment and numerous Titans in Elbaf, and they want to continue to challenge the Titans and hone themselves here.

"Hahaha, that's no problem. We, the Promise Pirates, have already established trade with Elbaf. In the future, merchant ships from our Promise Pirates will often come to Elbaf."

"Whenever you want to go back, just take these merchant ships."

Li Yuan naturally would not refuse Barrett, Qingjiao and others who wanted to stay here.

He even thought about sending people to Elbaf for training in the future. The giants in Elbaf are naturally warlike and can serve as free sparring partners. It would be a shame if they were left here unused!

"Don't worry, Captain. When I return, I will definitely become a core cadre!!"

Barrett said firmly.

"Hahahaha, good job Barrett, I'll be waiting for you to come back in the Infinite Sea!" "set sail!"

Li Yuan laughed happily.

There is no doubt about Barrett's talent. He is only fifteen years old now, but he has already reached this level. In a few years, he will surely be able to enter the ranks of top combat power.

At that time, the Wuji Pirates will have two top combat forces!

After returning to the Wuji Sea, Li Yuan resumed his usual practice.

Yin Wa's current gravity multiples can no longer keep up with Li Yuan's growth rate. Later, he even had to add dozens of tons of weight on Yin Wa's body to allow himself to be trained to the limit in a short period of time.

It is now the end of the year 1490 in the Haiyuan calendar. More than a year has passed quickly and it is now the year 1492 in the Haiyuan calendar.

During this year or so, Li Yuan was either training with Yin Wa's gravity on Ghost Island, or taking a break to accompany his woman and train his children.

Another thing is to teach the swordsmen selected from the Wuji Sword Hall. Most of these swordsmen are willing to join the Wuji Pirates and join the swordsman team.

The Wuji Sword Hall recruits not only swordsmen, but also anyone with qualifications. It is just like a navy training camp, providing fresh blood for the Wuji Pirates.

January 1st of the year 1492 in the Kaien calendar was the day of the auditions for the Infinite Pirates. Today, Barrett and the others who had originally stayed in Elbaf all returned.

All those who wanted to be elected as captains or cadres of the Wuji Pirates came to the island of Venice. They all looked quietly at Li Yuan standing on the high platform, with various lights in their eyes.

"Hahahaha, it's time for the selection again. Without further ado, everyone stand up!"

As he spoke, the majestic domineering aura on Li Yuan's body unscrupulously rushed towards the 200,000 pirates standing in front of him.

The blood-red lightning surged wildly, as if countless real thunder and lightning were wreaking havoc on the bodies and minds of these 200,000 pirates.

During the expansion over the past year, the number of the Wuji Pirates has grown to more than 200,000, and not all of them are here.

"Bang, bang, bang!!!"

After a while, most of the 200,000 people fell down, and only a few were still standing.

In the end, Li Yuan counted and found that only more than two hundred people could continue to stand. These two hundred people are the captains of the current Wuji Pirates! "Hahahaha, congratulations on becoming the captain of the Promise Pirates!!"

Li Yuan looked at the more than 200 people still standing and smiled.

Among these more than 200 people, some were captains before, and some were captains for the first time.

In order to prevent those who have become captains from slacking off, every time such a selection comes, those captains must participate.

Once they fail, it means losing the position of captain. It is because of this that even pirates who have become captains dare not slack off. They do not want to lose their identity as the captain of the Wuji Pirates.

"Captain, I want to be a cadre!"

"I want to be a cadre too!"

"I, I want to become a cadre too!"

After Li Yuan finished his announcement, Kalu, Kano and the giant Raditz stood up.

Kalu and Kano fought frantically in Elbaf, and with the constant pressure from Gravity Homies, their strength has improved by leaps and bounds in the past year or so. They are confident that they can pass the test and become cadres!

Raditz has Gravity Homies, has learned the use of Armament Haki Ryu Sakura, and has added various physical skills. His strength is much stronger than it was more than a year ago, and he is also very confident that he can become a cadre.

"Hahahaha, all right, the three of you step out and stand over there. Get ready to face my

test!"

Li Yuan looked at the three people who took the initiative to step forward and said with great satisfaction.

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Kalu and the others immediately ran to the open space nearby, ready to face Li Yuan's attack.

"It's Captains Kalu and Kano, and the giant Raditz. Do they dare to take the captain's sword?"

"Hurry up, those of you lying on the ground, get up quickly, or you will be blown away and no one will collect your bodies!"

Two hundred thousand pirates were watching this scene. If Karu and his men succeeded, it would mean that the Wuji Pirates would have three more cadres.

Kalu and the other two stood in an open space a hundred meters away from Li Yuan, lined up

in a row, fifty meters apart. They all looked at Li Yuan very solemnly.

Although they were all confident that they could pass the test, who would dare to

underestimate their captain's attack?

That is the most powerful slash in the world. Even if the upcoming slash is not the full strength of his captain, not everyone can take it. If they can't take it, they will die!

"Blood Slaughter-Avici Three Swords!"

Holding the Seven Star Sword in his hand, Li Yuan controlled his own strength and slashed

three times in succession. Each slash was controlled at the level of an ordinary general with all

his strength.

Three huge bloody slashes suddenly came out from the Seven Star Sword, and the earth was instantly torn apart. The shocking slashes rushed towards Kalu and the other two at lightning

speed.

This kind of slashing attack made the hearts of the 200,000 pirates around tremble. Even if they were just watching from afar, they already felt the crisis of death. For them to face this

kind of slashing attack directly was simply asking for their lives!

But fortunately, they are not the ones facing this kind of attack now!

The moment Li Yuan drew his sword, Kalu and the other two also started to attack! None of

them had any intention of defending on the spot, and they rushed towards the three

oncoming slashes.

Kalu was the closest to Li Yuan. He transformed into a human-beast form, holding two

swords formed by wings, covered with armament color. The next moment, he exerted force

with his feet and his speed increased to a higher level.

"Double Blade Style: Cross Evil Light Slash!!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

There was determination in his sharp tiger eyes. As the two swords crossed, all the strength of

his body was gathered on the two swords, and he delivered his strongest attack with all his

strength.

But the next moment, when the shocking bloody slash came, his full-strength attack was defeated, and his two swords were pressed by the slash and hit his chest.

"Stop it for me!!!"

Kalu held on to the ground with his feet and slid backwards, leaving two trenches more than

300 meters long.

Until finally, when the force of the slash weakened, he suddenly pulled it away, deflecting the

bloody slash.

"Phew, I did it!"

The two swords in Kalu's hands fell to the ground. He covered the wound on his chest where

his ribs were broken with both hands, but a smile appeared on his face.

"Dual Blade Style: Flowing Star Spike!!"

"The Spear of Elbaf: Hegemony!"

At the same time, Kano and the giant Raditz, like Kalu, risked being seriously injured and

successfully took on Li Yuan's slash.

"Hahahaha, Kalu, Kano, Raditz, you did a great job!"

"In the name of the captain of the Infinity Pirates, I declare that the three of you will be the

officers of the Infinity Pirates from now on!"

Seeing Kalu, Kano and Raditz standing up, Li Yuan announced loudly.

"Oh, great, the Promise Pirates have three more officers!"

"Hahahaha, the Infinite Pirates already have seven officers. Back then, officers Barrett and

Ashura Douji were able to work together to stop the admiral of the navy. Now the Infinite

Pirates are even more powerful!"

"It's so shocking. That kind of slash was really taken. I will work hard in the future and pass

the test to become a cadre in the future!"

|| ||

After Li Yuan made the announcement, the 200,000 pirates present cheered one after another.

They seemed to see hope for their promotion.

"Captain, I want to be a core cadre!!"

However, just when everyone thought the assessment was over, Barrett stood up and spoke

loudly.

Suddenly, the twenty-odd people present fell silent.

Many people think that cadre is the highest-level position in the Wuji Pirates, below the

captain. Many people have forgotten that Li Yuan once said that above ordinary cadres, there

is the position of core cadre.

The truth is that over the years, no one in the Infinity Pirates has ever been able to become a

core member, not even those who have expressed a desire to become one.

But this time, Barrett stood up!

"Barrett, my sword cannot be taken back once it is slashed out. If you can't catch it, you will

die!"

"So I'll ask you again, are you ready?"

Li Yuan looked at Barrett who was standing 500 meters away and asked seriously.

At the same time, the murderous aura, domineering color, armed color, and three kinds of

sword intent on his body have all been integrated into the Seven Star Sword.

Even though he hadn't drawn his sword yet, the invisible pressure and sharp sword light had

already filled an area of several thousand meters.

The 200,000 pirates did not dare to look directly at the Seven Star Sword at this moment. Any

of the fearless young men would faint immediately after just one look at the Seven Star

Sword.

"Captain, come on, I'm ready!"

Barrett immediately transformed into a huge 50-meter-tall King Kong Titan. His golden hair and strong muscles showed his unparalleled strength.

Seeing this, Li Yuan did not say anything else, and the sword intent and domineering aura on

the Seven Star Sword suddenly surged.

A lifelike blood-red dragon appeared behind Li Yuan. The soaring blood dragon was five

hundred meters long. Barrett's King Kong Titan was like a little monkey in front of it.

"The Secret of Three Elements Combining into One, Tyranny, Blood Dragon Slashing the

Sky!" With a slash of sword, the majestic phantom of a blood dragon suddenly combined with a shocking slash broke through the void and rushed towards Barrett.

Wherever the blood dragon passed, the space shook, the earth collapsed, and the sky trembled. Even the white clouds overlooking all living things were dispersed by the blood dragon. Even the sunlight that spread all over the earth was absorbed by the blood dragon

when it shone on it. "Titan Fist: Gravity Impact!"

The fifty-meter-tall Titan used the shaving technique to instantly charge forward, his entire

body covered with a devilish armed color domineering aura, and his dark fists were compressed with gravity like a black hole.

He used the technique of the Eight-Strike Fist to perfectly combine gravity and impact force, and punched out with both fists, firmly blocking the oncoming Blood Dragon's slash. The huge impact of the collision between the two swept across the area of several thousand

meters like a giant storm, and many of the pirates watching around were washed away like

straw.

The pirates behind them retreated in fear. They were just there to watch the fun, but they realized that they didn't even have the strength to watch the fun. If they weren't careful, they

would be killed by the aftermath!

"Crack!!!"

However, in just a moment, the armament color and gravity on Barrett's fists completely collapsed, and the Blood Dragon Slash forcefully broke through the bombardment of his fists

and slashed on his body of the Diamond Titan covered with armament color. The fifty-meter-tall King Kong Titan was slashed by the Blood Dragon and flew back thousands of meters before falling heavily to the ground. Barrett was even forced to return to

his human state.

At this moment, everyone was watching Barrett flying backwards, to see if he would die under this sword, or survive this sword and become the first core cadre of the Wuji Pirates! "Ahem!!!"

Under the gazes of everyone, Barrett stood up immediately after landing. The deep sword scar

on his chest spanned half of his body, and they could vaguely see Barrett's exposed bones and internal organs.

"Hahahaha, Barrett, congratulations on becoming the first core cadre of our Promise

Pirates!" "Core cadres can receive eight million berries every month. This is the basic benefit. There

will be more benefits later. I will arrange for people to announce them all!"

The moment he saw Barrett stand up, Li Yuan announced loudly.

The appearance of the core cadres means that their Wuji Pirates have become stronger!

"Great, the core cadres, I wonder if the core cadres of our Wuji Pirates can beat the admirals of

the navy!"

"Nonsense, even if I can't beat him, I can't lose. He's the Devil Titan Barrett!"

"It's too strong. Barrett really took that kind of devastating blow!"

""

Following Li Yuan's announcement, the 200,000 pirates present cheered again. The first core

cadre of the Wuji Pirates appeared!
