One Piece My Partner is Too Crooked - Chapter 84

“What did you say? How could Sea Kings appear here?!”

Hearing this, Krieg’s face changed dramatically. He quickly started moving to check the situation.

But…

Boom!
The flagship, Dreadnought Sabre, was also hit by a Sea King. The massive ship shook violently and tilted dangerously.

Krieg braced his legs, forcing himself to stay upright.

But his officers and underlings weren’t as sturdy, rolling across the deck like marbles.

In just a few seconds, several Sea Kings emerged from the ocean and targeted the ten large pirate ships.

These ferocious sea beasts, with blood-red eyes, seemed driven mad by some irresistible lure, frantically tearing into the pirate ships.

Some pirates who fell into the sea didn’t even have time to struggle before being swallowed whole!

In their instinctive fear, the pirates screamed and ran in all directions, panicking.

In the blink of an eye, the once intimidating pirate fleet plunged into chaos!
“Everyone, calm the hell down! Turn all cannons and guns on these beasts and drive them back into the sea!” Krieg roared angrily.

He knew these Sea Kings’ appearance was undoubtedly linked to the recent downpour, and he wanted nothing more than to rush over and tear Icey and his crew apart.

But clearly, the immediate priority was stabilizing the fleet’s chaos!
The smoky cannon fire echoed across the sea again, but this time, Krieg’s pirates faced the frenzied onslaught of deep-sea giants!
When the life-infused rainwater dissipated, and the Sea Kings, battered by cannon fire, regained their senses, they slowly retreated into the deep sea, driven by their survival instincts.

Though they managed to drive off the maddened beasts, Krieg’s fleet paid a heavy price.

All ten pirate ships were riddled with holes, seawater pouring through the gaps.

The Dreadnought Sabre, the lead ship, was severely damaged, with two-thirds of it submerged.

Once numbering in the thousands, the massive fleet was now reduced to fewer than a thousand exhausted pirates!
“Everyone who can still move, get all the treasure off the ships to a safe place!”

Krieg stood on a broken mast, his eyes filled with angry bloodshot veins.

Seeing his devastated fleet, he gritted his teeth and tightly gripped his massive war spear.

At this point, he regretted attacking this cursed sea restaurant for a mere few million Beli.

Their methods were far more bizarre than the news reported!
“Before that, you should consider your own situation, Krieg.”

With water flowing around him, a calm voice came from ahead.

Seeing the timing was right, Icey, holding a long sword, left the sea restaurant and stepped onto Krieg’s damaged ship.

“You think you can defeat me just like that? I’m Admiral Krieg!”

Clad in golden armor, Krieg’s eyes flared with intense killing intent. Without any more words, he charged at Icey, launching a fierce attack.

His massive war spear, weighing nearly two thousand pounds, created a powerful gust.

After all, as the pirate admiral capable of assembling such a large fleet, Krieg’s physical strength far surpassed Captain Kuro of the Black Cat Pirates!
However, this strength was insufficient against absolute speed.

Icey didn’t even need to use Observation Haki. With a simple step, he dodged Krieg’s war spear.

Boom!
As the spear touched the deck, the hidden explosive at the tip detonated, creating a massive explosion.

Amid the rising black smoke, Icey moved quickly, appearing behind Krieg.

His sharp blade traced a beautiful arc in the air, aiming directly at Krieg’s thick neck, exposed outside his golden armor!

Krieg’s combat instincts were strong. Sensing danger, he immediately raised the golden shield on his shoulder to block.

Clang!

The blade struck the hard shield, sparking.

“With such weak strength, you think you can take my head?”

Feeling the feeble power of his opponent, Krieg sneered, a contemptuous smile forming.

Because of the holy water imbued with life energy, Aqua’s blessing on Icey didn’t have much effect, weakening her divine power.

“Die!”

Krieg used brute force to push Icey back, adjusting his war spear and thrusting it at Icey’s heart.

Icey pushed off with his legs, easily evading the spear tip.

However, as if anticipating this, Krieg removed the golden shield from his other shoulder and swung it down at Icey, who was momentarily airborne.

Icey’s face remained expressionless as he stepped on Krieg’s golden armor, using the momentum to leap away.

Boom!
The spiked shield missed again, smashing the deck to pieces.

The sea breeze blew, pausing the battle.

The two, now distanced, locked eyes, analyzing each other’s weaknesses, searching for a killing blow.

“Divine Fist!”

At that moment, a feminine shout came from another pirate ship a hundred meters away.

Wielding a flaming fist, Aqua was fighting Krieg’s officer, the supposedly invincible Iron Wall Pearl.

Icey was stunned.

What was this idiot goddess doing? Wasn’t she supposed to stay on the Infinite Dream?!

As if hearing his thoughts, Aqua turned, her eyes full of wisdom: Hmph, don’t think I don’t know you want to keep all the pirate bounties for yourself by leaving me on the ship!
Icey: “…”

It’s not about the bounty; you being so close is making me really nervous, sis!
If he didn’t have to deal with Krieg, he would have run over and thrown this troublemaker into the sea to feed the fish!

Luckily, all of Krieg’s ships were heavily damaged, making it hard for them to relaunch a large-scale bombardment.

If anything went wrong, King would probably sail the Infinite Dream away from the area.

With this in mind, Icey refocused, putting all his attention on the charging Krieg.

The two resumed their fierce battle.

Meanwhile, as Icey feared, King on the Infinite Dream was facing an unprecedented crisis.

In the opposite direction, another pirate ship flying Krieg’s flag appeared!
Gin quickly recognized the officer on the ship’s bow.

It was the pirate crew’s chief strategist, Ginrummy!
Ginrummy’s elite pirate ship had been lying in wait on the forward route, ready to block the sea restaurant’s escape path.

Observing the unfavorable battle through a monocular, they sailed over to provide support.

Naturally, they encountered King, standing on the Infinite Dream with crossed arms.
