Standing on the edge of the amazon's ship, Josh was closing his eyes. In front of him, two colossal sea kings were moving the ship. Hancock had ordered them to speed up a little. The giant beasts were sea kings, and they could cross real huge distances in a short time.

Josh, who was closing his eyes, had been looking for a strong pirate to test his training results against. Although Hancock would be a great opponent if he was willing to test himself, Josh didn't want to risk losing his self-esteem to fight her. Not to mention, he doesn't want to see Hancock hurt at all. It hurts him. Not to mention, she is a very strong warlord.. So he barely have to worry about seeing her hurt.

Meanwhile, Hancock was standing next to him, her hands on her blushing face as she was observing his face. She moved her hand in front of his face, and she seemed to be holding herself. In the end, she pockets his cheek, making him open his eyes.

"Sorry, I couldn't resist."

"Ha~" Josh could only sigh, smiling, before closing his eyes and scanning around. He needed to train his willpower sometimes, that's why he is avoiding looking at her chest. He must admit, it's hard… difficult as well.

At the endless blue sea of the Grand Line. A group of pirates were rising their cups, looking at the sky.

"Hahaha… drink, you bastards! You earned it!"

Standing on the top of the big ship, a big muscled man was standing.

He looked to a young pale man.

He was 205 cm tall and had buffed muscles. His hair was red and spiky. He was wearing lousy pants, a belt, and opened suit, exposing his chest. The pirates on the deck raised their hands, hitting their cups with each other.

Kid, the rising pirate, had a smirk on his face.

"That's how things happened. After slaying a whole town, taking their money and spitting on them, we celebrate in our fucking new fame."

This is his beginning, the beginning of a living legend that will find One Piece and make a name for himself.

He is willing to make the name of the last Pirate King below his.

Waving his hand, a metallic cup came from the middle of the air, flying toward the kid, who looked at his crew as they were celebrating.

Kid, since not only did he beat a strong Marine captain, but also killed a whole town population, knows that he will get a huge bounty on his head.

Thinking that his bounty would raise to a huge level made him have a smirk on his face.

"I will crush the legend of The Gambler." With that sentence being said, he took his cup, opening his mouth, and poured the drink there, not caring that some slipped and danced on his chin. Putting the cup down, he swept his face and smirked.

The gambler is quite famous here. After his death, he had been known across the area, especially knowing that he had managed to injury an admiral, and crush the legend of the Buster Call after he had played them.

Even his girls have great bounties on them.

"What a loser, died only with his bounty being 200 million." At this time, Kid was 210 million worth, and he is waiting for his raise.

"Captain." Called the navigator of the crew.

"Hey, didn't I say don't annoy me while I'm doing the thinking?"

Kid waved his hand. Some purple sparks danced and invaded a knife. The knife flew to the navigator, stopping next to his neck.

Kid always like to assure his dominance on, the crew members, especially the lesser ones.

"Captain, two giant beasts are approaching us."

"Huh??? Heat, do you want to kill them."

Kid stood up and shook his head, looking at who is approaching them. In his line of sight, there are big sea kings dragging a ship. Kid wondered what is this. Soon, the sea kings stopped. Kid saw a little point jumping out of their heads, and it approached them, like a rocket. It

That figure then became blurry. Kid, who used to see very fast opponents, could make something out of the blur that got next to them. When the silhouette landed on the middle of his big ship, the pirates in the middle of the deck took steps back and stared at what landed.

"An invader."

"Hey, do you think it's your mom's ship to come like that?"

"What's with this guy. What do you want."

Looking at the brown-haired youth, who stood there like he is the boss of the ship, the pirates seemed to be worry and about to attack him.

Kid, and the strong members, only glared at the familiar-looking man. Although, he couldn't remember where he had seen a familiar face.

"It feels someone here worth to be a test rat. I smell someone strong, who is he?" he said, showing his hostile intentions. He looked around. Seeing that everyone were of average height, the same of his category.

He opened his mouth to talk, and everyone paid attention.

"By the way, are you from the blues. You don't look that tall? Geez, I feel like I forget what a man looks like."

His words, although seemed to be honest, felt like an insult.

"Talk about you."

"You're fucking dead."

The crew seemed to be offended and they dashed toward him. The mysterious man closed his eyes.

Kid, who was trying to figure out where he had seen that face, thought that the dark brown-haired man is dead. However, that man, although he wasn't seeing anything, managed to dodge an axe swing from behind, letting the blade sink.

The other members of the crew took out of their weapons, swords, daggers, and axes. They attacked him. He, however, managed to dodge all of them by taking slight steps to the side.

"Can you increase your speed?" He said, mocking them. "You are the weak ones."

Without the need to open his eyes, he raised one leg. Using his other foot as a spinning centre, he spun and made one circle that turned into a sharp compressed air, which lifted the pirates around and then it sent them flying, to the sea.

Their bodies, however, were cut. The sea they fell in, only added salt to their winds. Opening his eyes slowly, the young man turned to the ones who are left.

Kid and his three best members managed to still stand up. He clenched his jaw as the man disrespected him.

"You are fucking dead, you know that. I'll make sure you do."

"Hold on." The masked man next to Kid stood up. "The Gambler!?"

The crew seemed to be shocked.

"No way, he is dead." Said a tall one, who seemed to be 3 meters tall. The only one on this ship.

Kid eyelids shook. He made a fist, a crazy smirk appeared on his face. "Oh, he survived somehow. You know what. I have been itching to test the pity weakling who only sank one ship. I wonder what it makes me if I killed a man like that. "

Josh, aka the Gambler, looked at him and analysed for enough time.

"You are, Kid?" Josh said as he was looking around. Sᴇaʀᴄh the ɴøvᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

"Seems you are aware of those who have a higher bounty. Hahahaha…" Kid laughed and lifted his hand. "Though, I wonder. How did you survive an admiral? Let's see, how, bastard!"

Every metallic object in the ship, the deck, flew in the air and circled around Kid, who had dark purple spikes around him.

"Nice power you have there." Josh half-closed his eyes as he looked at the surrounding. "Do you have some fruits in your kitchen?"
