One Piece My Partner is Too Crooked - Chapter 48
“Yo, are you our new partner? You seem quite reliable. Unexpectedly, without the intervention of this goddess, Icey can summon a strong person like you.”
Aqua took the initiative to greet King, appearing quite satisfied with the reliable partner in front of her.
“Goddess?” King suppressed the panic in his heart and asked in a deep voice.
“Yes, I am the goddess worshipped and admired by the Akushis cult, Goddess Aqua of Water!” Aqua proudly tapped her chest.
“Hello, I’m King, ranked seventh in the Hero Association.” King tried to communicate with Aqua.
“Hero? So, you’ve conquered the Demon King?” Aqua suddenly became spirited.
According to her worldview, adventurers or heroes can only earn the title of hero after defeating the Demon King.
“Conquer the Demon King?”
King glanced down at the adventure game brought by the young female hero he had brought along, shocked by her “foresight” ability. He coughed lightly and said, “Well, you could say that.”
“Hahaha, not bad, this goddess approves of you!” Aqua lightly laughed and patted King’s shoulder.
King was startled by this action but maintained a calm expression, continuing to discuss the topic of heroes and the Demon King with Aqua.
The communication between the two was completely off…
Standing beside them, Icey ignored their conversation, lowering his head in contemplation.
Suddenly, the light and shadow intertwined, and the dissipating wishing pool light board reappeared in sight.
?Wish partner “Aqua” successfully accepted the wisher. This wish is completed.?
“I swear…”
?Choose one of the following abilities?
?Devil Transformation with Super Firepower: Transform the body below the head into steel machinery, gaining powerful thermal weapon suppression ability (the first step from man to machine, but part replacement may become a big problem)?
?Maybe Speed Isn’t Your Limit: Gain speed several times greater than physical ability (running fast is good, but safety must be ensured; don’t become a lone warrior)?
?The Power of a Sexy Male Prisoner: Sacrifice sexual orientation to gain perfect six-pack abs and combat potential (a shortcut to becoming a pervert)?
Compared to the difficult choice between two options last time, Icey didn’t hesitate too much this time, focusing directly on enhancing his speed.
Just as he analyzed when facing the Buggy Pirates in the square earlier, he currently only had defense but lacked outstanding physical abilities. He could only survive in combat, making it difficult to gain the upper hand in active attacks.
Even with his observation of Haki capturing the trajectory of firearms and cannons, it was difficult for him to evade due to his sluggish body coordination, greatly increasing the threat of ordinary pirates.
However, all these deficiencies would disappear once his speed received epic-level enhancement.
Whether dodging, launching a pursuit or fleeing, it would become effortless and unrestrained!
More importantly, speed is power. With his already strong physical defense, his attack power would also rise to another level.
Although he felt very worried about King’s joining, Icey had to admit that he couldn’t refuse this wish reward!
Unfortunately, there’s no option for a one-punch kill.
If there were, even if he went bald, it wouldn’t be a problem at all!
He felt a little regretful.
“Icey, Icey, what were you just about to say?”
Aqua’s voice interrupted Icey’s contemplation.
“Nothing, I mean, welcome to the team, King!” Icey smiled and reached out his hand to King.
Things had reached this point, and he could only take it step by step.
Thinking optimistically, maybe King’s inherent super-luck aura could counterbalance Aqua’s unlucky fortune.
Seeing King standing still with a cautious look, he added, “Don’t worry, I know your situation very well.”
“What do you mean?” King raised an eyebrow.
“About you being a shut-in at home.”
“…I see.” King felt like an arrow had pierced his knee.
Icey was about to introduce the world’s current situation to King when a flash of red light appeared in his eyes.
“As for the specific information about this world, I can only introduce it later.”
Boom!
When the words fell, a loud cannon blast came outside the sea restaurant, splashing water at the entrance.
Along the stairs, the three arrived at the Infinite Dream’s second deck.
Looking up, they saw the skull flag with a big red nose waving in the wind toward Orange Town Port, and the well-organized Baki Pirates were chasing after them!
“Boys, bombard fiercely for me and bring down that damn sea restaurant!”
Baki, draped in a white cape, sat high, having received emergency treatment from the ship doctor, and he could now speak clearly despite
His pale face.
In front of him, all the pirate crew members rolled up their sleeves, holding huge cannons as they roared and fired toward the direction of the Infinite Dream!
“Da** it, why are they attacking us again!” Icey’s expression changed, his gaze locked onto the rapidly approaching pirate ships.
“Didn’t we defeat them in the square just now?!”
“We can’t beat them head-on this time. Let’s hide first!” King quickly pulled Icey towards the deck and whispered.
Aqua followed them closely, her expression slightly tense.
The battle between the Infinite Dream and the Baki Pirates was about to begin again.
