“Yamato, you guys go on your own. I won’t be following you this time.”
The island wasn’t large in size; it was truly an isle. After the ship circled it once, he had already detected the auras on the island.
There was no human presence, and no aura of dangerous beasts, so he allowed Yamato and the others to go have fun on their own without any worries.
The reason for circling the island was to wait for those guys behind them. That group’s ship was too slow, even when the Genesis ship sailed at its lowest speed, it completely left them behind.
Moreover, there was no suitable harbor on the island, and the draught of the Genesis ship was too deep to approach the island. Yamato and the others had no choice but to approach the shore using lifeboats.
However, the Genesis ship did not disappear on the sea surface; it just dropped anchor after retracting its flag.
The reason it did not disappear was that Olga had left with them. Yamato’s grading exam is still ongoing, and having an extra layer of security was always good.
Wearing a set of jungle exploration outfits, Yamato pulled Robin and Maria and headed towards the marked Golden Island on the map.
“Eldoraggo-san, they have entered the island.”
Behind a rock, a small thug-looking person reported to the tall man behind him. Eldoraggo had dark skin, long red hair, and a lion-like face. Collecting gold was one of his hobbies.
According to the normal timeline, he would need at least another dozen years to find this place. However, they overheard Yamato’s conversation in the tempura shop yesterday, so they secretly followed.
Currently, there were only a dozen people on their ship, gathered because of Eldoraggo’s strength. Even in the East Blue, they were at the level of small fry, which is why Olga made the remark that even the ship’s cook could defeat ten of them.
If Eldoraggo wasn’t a Devil Fruit user, her evaluation would change to the cook being able to wipe them out.
“Eldoraggo-san, let’s quietly follow them. That ship is huge, and it looks like trouble.”
Their ship was like an ant to an elephant when compared to the Genesis ship, with size not much different from the lifeboats on the Genesis ship. The scale of the ships alone had already revealed the disparity between the two sides.
However, Eldoraggo did not think so. He even wanted to claim the treasures on their ship for himself.
This was common knowledge in the pirate world. Because pirates spend a long time sailing on the sea, Berries are prone to damage if kept for a long time and become waste paper if soaked in water during danger.
So, apart from a certain amount of paper currency, pirates would convert their wealth into hard currency like gold. This way, even if the ship sank, they could look for an opportunity to salvage it.
Eldoraggo was obsessed with gold and was also someone who had not seen the world. He even had the idea of capturing the Genesis ship to exchange for money.
“Let’s not worry about that ship for now. They actually dared to let a woman and two girls go ashore alone. Let’s capture them first.”
Maria’s physique gave them a misunderstanding. They didn’t think of her as someone of the same age but rather as a guardian.
Although the treasure map’s description was somewhat cryptic, they quickly found a whale-shaped stone on the island. They also saw its curved tail pointing towards a tall mountain.
“The whale’s tail, huh? It should be that mountain. If it’s that easy, it won’t be interesting. Hey! Are you guys still going to follow? You’ve been following us all the way!”
At this time, Yamato shouted down the slope. Those people’s tracking skills were really not that great, and they were also quite careless about hygiene. Due to the wind direction, Yamato could even smell the stench coming from them.
“Hmm, spotted the enemies, but instead of taking them down directly, she called them out, wasting her advantage.”
Olga in the shadows recorded another note in her small book. According to Arceus’ standard, she was underestimating the enemy.
However, from another perspective, it could be said that she had accurately assessed the enemies’ level, so it was a slash rather than a cross.
However, those people didn’t seem to believe Yamato’s words. They remained hidden below the slope. In response, Maria chewed on something and spat out a charged spider web directly into the sky.
Soon, a series of screams followed, and Eldoraggo’s already few underlings were reduced by a large margin.
“So weak. Is this the level of the East Blue?”
Maria couldn’t believe her eyes when her attack directly overwhelmed the enemies. It was just the special spider web that Galvantula inherently possessed, not even a move.
“Maybe they are an exception. Pirate King Gol D. Roger and Marine Hero Garp both are from this sea. If I’m not mistaken, Uncle Mandrell is also from the East Blue, right? Look, there’s someone strong.”
Watching Eldoraggo’s hair turn into afro-hairstyle, Yamato further affirmed her thoughts. At least this one wasn’t directly paralyzed by electricity.
After walking out, Eldoraggo stood in place with his mouth wide open, charging energy in his mouth.
After a few seconds of charging, a blue-white light beam shot towards Yamato, but the accuracy of the attack seemed not that great. The attack only hit the ground behind them.
Boom!
After a loud bang, a large crater was left on the nearby ground. His attacks could only travel in a straight line, so he had to step out to launch an attack.
Seeing the first attack miss, he began to charge for a new one. This was his most commonly used move, using his beams of sound to bombard enemies from a distance.
“Interesting, I want to try too.”
Watching Eldoraggo’s attack, Yamato suddenly became interested. After her ability took effect, she also imitated the opponent’s enlarged mouth, seemingly accumulating power in her mouth.
Normally, her power should have been fully accumulated long ago, but she waited for the opponent to charge. After Eldoraggo finally completed charging, Yamato also launched her own attack.
“Namuji Glacier Fang!”
Charging did have some effect. This Namuji Glacier Fang had a bit more power than usual. The blue-white beam of sound collided with the ice-blue Namuji Glacier Fang in the sky.
Boom!
Another intense explosion resounded, but within the smoke and dust, Yamato’s Namuji Glacier Fang was not nullified. Instead, it pierced through the smoke and dust and struck the opponent’s body, adding a large ice sculpture on the island.
“It’s done. Sister Olga, why are you here?”
“Well, ask Lord Arceus about this yourself.”
Saying that, Olga handed the Den Den Mushi to Yamato. The recent battle scene was broadcasted live to Arceus. Although it was a crushing result, the process left him unsatisfied.
“Dad?”
“Yamato, does your Namuji Glacier Fang need to be charged?”
“Well, it can be instantly released…”
“Then why were you playing charging-game with him? Do you think you’re Ultraman? Did you have to clash with him head-on? Especially before you even fought him, you were underestimating him!”
