Chapter 129 Wild Shepherd's Revenge Success

Amidst the shock of the desolate pastures, Ark Proverbs flew to the territory of a minor noble family.

Unexpectedly, Count Xiongchuan, who held immense power in the Kingdom of Taya, built a small underground palace in the territory of a minor noble family.

Meanwhile, the Ogawa family, hiding in their underground chamber, saw the airship appearing in the sky outside by monitoring the Den Den Mushi (snail phone).

Everyone was immediately gripped by fear.

"Why! How did they find us?!"

Count Xiongchuan was filled with fear and trembling uncontrollably.

There was a traitor among them?!

He glanced at his three sons, without much suspicion.

After all, their families are all in the same boat, bound together by life and death, and there's no way they would betray each other.

Could it be those women?

Before Count Xiongchuan could find the traitor, thick, sharp vines suddenly pierced through him.

In an instant, mud and rocks scattered, and the building collapsed.

The underground palace, built at great expense by Earl Xiongchuan, was completely unable to contain the sharp vines of the wild herdsmen.

After a vine reached the ground, it miraculously grew into the shape of a human.

"You've hidden yourself well, Xiongchuan!!!"

Huang Mu grinned widely, looking at everyone present with nothing but a desire for revenge in his eyes.

After the appearance of Aramaki, the Harada family members became extremely fearful.

But only one person remained remarkably calm, standing upright in his original spot, seemingly unafraid of Huang Mu.

"Bucheon!! Run!!"

Count Yukawa had already run frantically toward the escape route, with Incheon and Yicheon following closely behind. But when they turned around and saw their second son, Bucheon, motionless, they immediately shouted.

However, Fuchuan merely gave Yuchuan a strange smile before turning into ink and disappearing.

"It was you!!"

The three men from Xiongchuan gritted their teeth and looked at the place where Fuchuan had disappeared.

But then I thought, if this Fuchuan is fake, wouldn't that mean Fuchuan has already...

"Still trying to run?!"

'A lush forest of green vines!'

Aramabu plunged his hands into the ground, and countless sharp vines pierced through the entire Harada family.

The terrified screams of the three Xiongchuan fathers and sons, along with their trusted subordinates, were carried into the air.

Even several of his powerful subordinates who had awakened Armament Haki couldn't withstand Aramu's sharp vines and were pierced through directly.

In the blink of an eye, these troublesome guards were mercilessly drained of their life force and turned into dried corpses by the desolate grazing land.

"Wild Shepherd, stop! I can make you a corps commander..."

Count Xiongchuan shouted in a hurry, but Huangmu no longer trusted these bastard nobles, and vines pierced through them one by one.

"boom!!"

A terrifying bolt of lightning blasted through the underground palace, startling even Huang Mu.

Then, the members of the Luo Ji Pirates jumped down one by one.

"Wildwood, is it done yet?"

Luo Ji's voice drifted down slowly. If Huang Mu was persuaded by talk-no-jutsu again, he would give the guy a good beating.

Let him see what true sea escape is all about!

"There seems to be a lot of treasure here."

Nico Robin and Violet quickly 'saw' some of the secret rooms and smiled faintly.

"Treasure hunt! Treasure hunt!!"

Bonnie shouted happily and, with Rebecca and Jade in tow, quickly went to find the baby.

"Hmph! The men in Xiongchuan are already dried up! Let the women go!"

Huang Mu snorted softly, not wanting to kill all the women; this was his final act of mercy towards his homeland.

If these women dare to seek revenge, Huang Mu will kill them all.

If they could grow to that level!

"Whatever!"

Luo Ji shrugged; this was Huang Mu's own business.

Anyway, Luo Ji needs these women to spread the word that Huang Mu killed Earl Xiong Chuan.

This will burden Huang Mu with the destiny of a great nobleman.

"With so much money, why are you robbing us?"

Huang Mu's eyebrows twitched as he watched the women of the Luo Ji Pirates carrying away the treasure.

"Hmph, who would complain about having too much money? Besides, Captain Luo's storage scrolls are so convenient!"

Bonnie glanced at Wildwood and continued her treasure hunt.

Luo Ji also very conscientiously used a scroll to pack up all the gold treasures and cash Berries.

As for how the women of the Harada family will live in the future, that's none of Luo Ji's business.

However, the Earl's estate has so much land and assets that it's enough for these women to spend.

···

While Luo Ji was plundering Count Xiong Chuan's underground assets, news of their appearance in the Kingdom of Taya had quickly reached the Navy Headquarters and Mary Geoise.

Marineford, Naval Headquarters.

In the Marshal's office.

"What?! Luo Ji has appeared in the Kingdom of Taya? And he even subdued the monster police officer in the capital of Taya?"

"Is Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Tyrant, also in the Luo Ji Pirates?"

When Sengoku received this news, he was immediately alarmed. He knew a little about Aramaki and knew that this guy was a Logia-type Forest-Forest Fruit user and was extremely powerful.

The World Government's CP agents should have more detailed information about Aramaki.

But what surprised him even more was how the new Shichibukai, Bartholomew Kuma, had joined the Luo Ji Pirates.

A few days ago, Satan Saint said that all of Joelie Bonney and the CP agents of the Kingdom of Sorbet had disappeared, and that the bear was probably about to break free from control.

This news surprised Fleet Admiral Sengoku, Admiral Akainu, Kizaru, and Admiral Aokiji.

Especially Akainu and Kizaru, who had witnessed Kuma's formidable fighting power and his outrageous Paw-Paw Fruit ability.

Unexpectedly, Kuma, who had only recently joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea, had already slipped out of control.

Akainu could only curse those useless CP agents under his breath.

This gives the navy another powerful enemy.

"This is troublesome. If the monster police officer Aramaki from the Kingdom of Taya and the tyrant Kuma join the Luo Ji Pirates, their strength will have reached the level of the Four Emperors."

Chief of Staff Tsuru clenched his fist. Yamato, Kuma, and Aramaki—these three guys were no less than the Three Calamities and Four Generals, and perhaps even stronger.

The most terrifying thing is that the former Shichibukai Hanafzai and Crocodile have both been captured by Law.

If these two former Shichibukai were recruited by Luo Ji and joined the Luo Ji Pirates...

Vice Admiral Tsuru could hardly believe how powerful this pirate crew was.

This scale even bears a resemblance to the Rocks Pirates of yesteryear.

This intelligence report did not uncover any information about Hanafzai and Crocodile, but with Bartholomew Kuma joining the Luo Ji Pirates, it's hard to guarantee that these two Shichibukai won't change their minds.

"The Luo Ji Pirates have rapidly expanded to a terrifying extent, rising at a speed far exceeding any other pirate crew in the past. They have become our number one enemy, surpassing even the Four Emperors pirate crews."

Buddha Sengoku's face turned ashen. He immediately called CP headquarters to retrieve detailed information about Aramu.

He always felt that Luo Ji had gone to the South China Sea specifically for this desolate place.

However, since Kuma appeared on Luo Ji's pirate crew, it's highly likely that Luo Ji was behind Bonney's actions!

How does this man know about Bonnie?

How would they know about Huang Mu, a relatively unknown natural-type powerhouse?

Also, why was Luo Ji able to find the Hades blueprints so quickly?

All of this is very strange.

This man seemed to possess a vast intelligence organization.

Or it's like having precognitive abilities.
