Chapter 74

The desire to kill gradually rises

Chapter 74 The desire to kill gradually rises

"People's tragedy lies in the end of the old era they are familiar with, and also in the rise of the new era that they cannot stop."

Suzuki calmly watched the increasingly chaotic crowd in the square, filled with greedy desires.

He knew that this was only a small part.

The World Government and the Navy, in order to publicize their achievements and take pride in successfully capturing the Pirate King Roger, deployed a large number of video Den Den Mushi around this execution platform.

Therefore, Roger's words just now reached not only the ears of the people present.

Those image Den Den Mushi that almost covered the entire ocean, and the numerous residents of almost every island where Den Den Mushi were deployed, all heard the Pirate King's earth-shattering words at that moment.

Suzuki calmly observed the crowd.

That future top monster, Shanks, one of the Four Emperors of the Sea.

At that moment, he covered his face tightly with his hands, pulled down the straw hat Roger had given him, and his tears and rain soaked his white shirt.

Bucky, standing beside Shanks, could hardly contain his pain and sorrow. He covered his head with his hands, closed his eyes, and tried to stop the tears from flowing, but he could not stop them from streaming down his face...

Suzuki noticed a faint smile unconsciously creeping onto Doflamingo's lips.

Perhaps the fall of the strong excited him, and the impending chaos made him fantasize about riding the waves in a new era and reaching the pinnacle of the ocean.

Gecko Moria, also a future Shichibukai, opened his mouth, revealing sharp teeth, and laughed strangely.

Crocodile simply flicked the ash off his cigar in silence.

He glanced at Roger on the execution platform with a strange expression, then resolutely embarked on the road to the New World.

Suzuki knew that this Crocodile's dream was to become the Pirate King, yet he witnessed the Pirate King's death at this moment. Happy? Sad? Perhaps just a mix of emotions.

Suzuki calmly looked at Monkey D. Dragon.

The dragon's face remained calm, though a hint of sorrow even flickered in its eyes.

He may have already seen the future, but staying in the Navy has never allowed him to reach the future he desires. So after returning this time, Dragon should embark on a completely new path.

Subsequently, a large number of naval soldiers emerged from the area surrounding Loguetown and began to suppress the increasingly frenzied and riotous crowd.

"Aaaaah, kill!"

"Let me go! Weren't you going to become a pirate too? Why are you attacking me?"

"Haha, of course I'd kill you! Who knows if you'd try to steal my treasure?"

"Die, Navy!"

"Be careful!"

"Ah, thank you! Damn, have all these people gone mad?"

"Isn't this just insane?"

"What do we do? There are so many people, how can we possibly suppress them? We don't have enough manpower!"

"Never mind that, don't hold back!"

There were also some people transferred from the Navy Headquarters and the CP organization, who were also trying to stop the strong people in the crowd who wanted to escape Loguetown. Fighting and killing seemed to have become the norm in an instant.

"Damn it, that's a sand crocodile! Get off its sand!"

"Let me deal with him!"

"Hmph, get out of the way, Navy!"

"Watch out! That's a user of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit from the West Blue. Protect your shadows!"

"Hehehehe... You think this will work?"

"Huh? What's going on? My body suddenly started moving on its own! Watch out, get out of the way!"

"Fufufufufu... Don't hinder the clarion call of the new era!"

"..."

As the situation in the square grew increasingly chaotic, Suzuki seemed to see the storm brewing on the sea...

Just then, Hawkeye Mihawk, standing behind Suzuki, looked at the corpse of Pirate King Roger on the execution platform and couldn't help but sigh:

"What a pity."

"Such a good opponent is already dead."

"I heard about his swordsmanship at sea; it was said to be very powerful. It's a pity I haven't seen him since."

Yes, Roger himself was an extremely powerful swordsman, and his sword "Ace" was one of the twelve Supreme Grade Swords of the sea.

Shanks, who was almost evenly matched with Hawkeye in the future, also inherited his swordsmanship from the Pirate King.

Therefore, Suzuki was not surprised by Hawkeye's exclamation, nor did he think Hawkeye's words were too arrogant because of the current gap in their strength.

Suzuki knew that, given Hawkeye's personality, he would only feel more excited when he encountered an opponent stronger than himself!

However, Suzuki gently shook his head and calmly said to Hawkeye:

"It's okay."

"I've also had a conversation with this Pirate King, and he has an apprentice crew member who can be considered his disciple."

"His name is Shanks. I'll introduce you two later."

"Shanks is a few years younger than you, but his talent is also top-notch. It won't be long before he catches up with you."

"Even though Roger is dead, his swordsmanship will not be lost, don't worry."

Upon hearing Suzuki's words, Hawkeye Mihawk's face immediately showed astonishment.

He never expected that Suzuki would have communicated with the Pirate King, let alone that the Pirate King's swordsmanship had been passed down.

Moreover, judging from Suzuki's words, that young man named Shanks is very likely to bring him considerable pressure in the future.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Hawkeye's face, and he couldn't help but touch his sword with his right hand, saying with some anticipation:

"Is that so, Shanks?"

"That's wonderful!"

"Thank you for telling me this good news, Suzuki!"

Suzuki shook his head slightly to indicate that there was no need to be polite, and then continued calmly:

"Mihawk, it's time for us to go too."

Hawkeye Mihawk nodded slightly. He was a swordsman, and although he felt a little sorry for the death of a great swordsman, it was indeed time to leave now, since the Navy had gradually surrounded the area.

So, Hawkeye Mihawk asked Suzuki:

"it is good."

Which way do we go?

Suzuki glanced around at the increasing number of marines around him, activated his Observation Haki, and silently calculated a suitable route in his mind.

Before long, he silently activated the power of the Gluttony Fruit, causing a Wind-Spitting Shell to appear under his feet. At the same time, his chakra flowed to his legs, and he used the Body Flicker Technique.

Finally, turning to Hawkeye Mihawk, he calmly said:

"Follow me."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground suddenly exploded, and his figure moved rapidly towards the edge of Roggetown in an instant.

At this moment, Hawkeye Mihawk's pupils involuntarily contracted; this speed was far faster than his own.

However, a smile immediately appeared on his face. The stronger Suzuki became, the more he felt it was a good thing. Whether from the perspective of a newly acquainted friend or a challenger, it was undoubtedly excellent.

Hawkeye Mihawk's eyes flashed with intense fighting spirit, and he quickly followed Suzuki's figure away.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

"Watch out for bullets!"

"Damn it, stop this guy!"

"What's wrong with him? Why are his abilities so strange?"

"Back up! Back up!"

"Oh no, run!"

"..."

The enemies include Marines and CP members, pirates, and people who are preparing to become pirates...

At this moment, Suzuki's chest was riddled with countless gun barrels, firing a dense barrage of bullets.

He strolled forward leisurely, calmly forming hand seals as he unleashed a Water Release technique from the ninja world.

"Water Release: Water Stream!"

The next moment, an astonishingly thin stream of water swept across the surroundings, its high-speed flow cutting through trees and houses within a radius of tens of meters like slicing tofu.

Dozens of people nearby were instantly turned into corpses, and even the noise fell silent.

However, two lucky survivors remained.

"Ah! Monster! Monster!"

"Don't kill me! Help! Help!"

Suzuki watched calmly as two fierce-looking, burly men slumped on the ground, their groins even leaking fluid.

He narrowed his eyes, just about to finish off the two ants.

The next moment, a sword aura tens of meters long slashed towards them.
