Chapter 396 - 398 (1/2)

Although even Belous, who is in excellent shape, will not be a rival to the current Yeruashi, because there is a huge gap in pure strength between them, but Yeruashi still respected Belous.

The reason for this is quite simple.

Belous reached the top of this world, relying on his own efforts.

Yeruashi respects such people, despite the gap of forces between different worlds, and does not feel contempt for them or anything like that.

Besides.

Belous by itself does not cause negative emotions in Yeruasha.

On the expanses of the sea, such personalities are extremely rare.

In the original, even the Fire Fist Ace, who had a royal will, sincerely followed Belous.

This was not only due to the overwhelming difference in strength.

The era of the New World has not yet come and there are many more strong pirates living in the expanses of the New World than in the original, and the Pirates of Belous rise above all of them, but at the same time, the strongest pirate team of the New World...it remains the poorest pirate team in the New World.

On the one hand, the Pirates of Belous very rarely trade in robbery, and if they do, they usually target other pirates.

On the other hand, the Pirates of Belous do not charge large sums from the islands that use their flag for protection.

In addition, every time they manage to get some treasures, Belous sends them to his homeland — the Island of Sphinx, leaving almost nothing for himself, even to the point that after his death, Belous left no material legacy.

In fact, the Pirates of Belous are not even pirates, but a force that rules in the free expanses of the sea, as opposed to the World Government.

The results will be exactly like this.

”Even though I said it...”

Yeruashi slowly took the blade out of its scabbard, continuing to look at Belous with a smile: ”But still, I want to make a proper greeting!”

Today, on the expanses of the sea, no one is able to compare with Belous.

There is simply no better opponent to hone the skill of the sword and the will of weapons.

In addition to the skill of the sword, the will of the Yeruashi armament also has room for growth.

«...»

Watching Yeruashi slowly unsheathe the blade, Marco and the others began to get even more nervous.

But Belous only grinned: ”Goo-ra-ra-ra, it seems that the battle with John did not give you pŀėȧsurė.”

Yeruashi has already shown his attitude earlier, so his 'greeting' should not become a battle of life and death.

There are not many people on the expanses of the sea who deserve his serious attitude, but Yeruashi, without any doubt, is one of such people.

”He was too weak.”

Yeruashi said calmly.

The battle with John really turned out to be too boring and not worthy of special attention episode.

”Father!”

Phoenix Marco, who was watching them from the side, exclaimed loudly.

”Marco, Joz...step back.”

Belous gave Marco, Joz, and the others a cursory look, and then looked intently at Yeruashi again.

He gripped the massive Saijo O Wazomono class Murakumogiri Naginata(12) tightly with his right hand and grinned, radiating the suggestion and strength inherent in the Strongest Person in the World.

”There's no need to worry so much, because I am...Belous!!”

Marco and the others clenched their fists tightly, but they still followed their father's order, retreating away from the battle site, along with their comrades who were in an unconscious state.

Yeruashi sent Robin to the deck of the ship with a light wave of his hand and looked at Belous again.

After a few seconds of silence, he abruptly stepped forward and struck with his blade.
