Achieving Nothing, I Can Only Be the Pirate King Chapter 578 - 339: You Absolutely Can’t Lose!

The weather is clear.

No dark clouds.

No heavy rain.

Suitable for an expedition.

At the bustling port, the Death Star had already arrived from the royal palace’s canal position to the port dock.

Residents of Storm City lined up from the outskirts of the royal palace all the way to the port position, eagerly anticipating.

This million-population city was reconstructed, and the previous division of southeast and northwest areas was changed to only two regions.

The first is the location of the royal palace, surrounded by statues and gardens.

The rest is where the people reside, as for the walls of the original East District and North District, they were dismantled.

However, though divided into two, the areas close to the royal palace are inevitably the hos of rchants and rich people who rose to prominence after Disaster took the throne.

This is unavoidable.

When a person becos prosperous, even if they don’t want it, people will cling to them.

Especially when it’s Sage who rules over vast territory.

"They are coming out! Ah... I saw it! Master Lily!"

The heavy gates of the palace were slowly opened, nearby guards ca out, blocking the people in front, trying to prevent them from moving forward and blocking the way.

"Master Marika! Still as gentle as ever, I will always rember how patiently she taught the skills of cooking!" A housewife made a praying gesture, intoxicated.

"Hehe, Master Renedia is still the best, though young, she’s rciless when scolding people. Every ti she scolds , I would get flustered... Hey, what are you doing?!"

Two guards rushed into the crowd, grabbed the speaking man, and dragged him out.

"Chop his head off! No, cut him in half!"

Renedia cried out just erging from the palace, "I want to see this pervert’s blood flow like a river!"

Sage sighed walking at the front, "n being perverts isn’t wrong, but this pervert is too extre... there’s all sorts of people indeed."

"Master Sage!"

"Master Sage!!"

Following the appearance of Sage, a group of people cheered.

Today was the day their master personally went on an expedition.

After three months, they were embarking on a large-scale expedition again!

The people of the Disaster Pirates had high popularity here, whether Moriah or Gin, they had so popularity, not to ntion the three great female officers.

As for Sage, who granted them a good life and allowed them not to bow to the nobility, he was the most popular.

"Master Sage! Which Pirate Emperor are you going to fight this ti?"

A civilian shouted loudly.

The newspapers may not report it, but how could those living in Storm City not know?

Those pirates accompanying the expedition also lived here. Just listen to the stories at any tavern, and you know what Sage is up to.

Their master Sage had already fought against two Pirate Emperors.

This ti another large-scale expedition, perhaps confronting another Pirate Emperor.

Sage glanced over, smiled, "I’m going to beco the Pirate Emperor this ti! Hahaha!"

His words sparked another wave of cheers.

"Master Sage, this is my flower gift for you, you are sure to win!"

A little girl with the sa hair color as Sage struggled through the guards’ obstruction, holding out a bouquet of flowers timidly as Sage passed by.

Sage took the flowers, ruffled the girl’s hair, "What’s your na, how old are you, what’s your family’s business, any difficulties?"

"I’m Lida, six years old this year. Dad’s a miner, Mom runs a flower shop. Difficulties... um, is going to an amusent park a difficulty?"

As soon as the little girl asked, she was grabbed and held by her mother.

"Master Sage, I apologize deeply for my daughter’s rude request." The woman with the sa white hair bowed, trembling yet with reverence.

Sage not only had popularity but also inspired fear.

No one forgot he was a vicious Great Pirate who destroyed the Navy Headquarters, killed Heavenly Celestial Dragon, and local nobility.

"Amusent park?"

Sage chuckled, looked around, laughed, "There’s no need to co to for such things, any businessman who wants to, co and claim it."

Since such business was ntioned, soone would naturally do it.

Storm City still had many deficiencies, Sage wouldn’t handle everything, those who wanted to do entertainnt and affiliates could do it themselves.

It’s beautiful to have a hundred flowers bloom, and you can collect another tax.

"Where’s the fleet at?"

Sage handed the flowers to Lily, asking.

"Preparing to gather in a mariti area ahead of Celent, they should be there when we arrive."

Lily said, "The great fleet of ten thousand from various places needs considerable ti to gather. Additionally, should we clear those surveillance ships?"

There were surveillance ships near O’hara; not only did they know this, but they even knew their positions.

They just hadn’t bothered with them.

Even if they did, it wouldn’t matter, as Sage said, a force this big doesn’t just have CP9 as a visible agency; there are countless hidden ones.

Let them watch.

"Hmm... no need, just leave it, the Navy now is like a turtle hiding. Akainu is busy recruiting, they don’t have enough troops themselves. Besides, it’s not easy to attack here. If all else fails, I’ll just co back myself."

Sage smiled, "This battle will end quickly."

Marco was preparing for a decisive battle. Whether it’s their wish or he and Teach drove them to this point is irrelevant.

Because victory would co swiftly.

Marco, indeed, not bad, as ’Emperor Deputy’ of the Whitebeard Pirates, serving such level Great Pirates is surely qualified.

But his strength is a bit lacking.

With Teach joining forces, they won’t let this battle drag on too long.

This ti, gathering ten thousand fleet just for the spectacle.

After all, this kind of expedition requires a grand scene.

"Hmm, there’s also one thing, Gin wants to return, not independently lead a ship. Instead, he wants to return to the Death Star as Combat Commander."

Lily said, "He seems unaccustod to that environnt."

"Alright, after this battle, let him co back... where’s he stationed?"

"Celent, Gold Mine Island, now that factory stuff is set up, they don’t need Gin’s ability."

"Later find soone with decent combat ability to station there, Bellamy’s group is also good now, send one."

Sage casually said, leading the group towards the port, his followers had already gathered on the ship waiting there.

"Master Sage!"

As he stepped onto the gangplank, an excited voice shouted from behind, "You must not lose!"

"What are you saying! Idiot!"

His partner beside punched him, pressing his head low.

Sage turned his head, gazing at the person lowering his head over there, a slow smile spread across his face.

A gust of wind from nowhere blew his furry cloak, flapping noisily.

From behind him, Lily steadied her sword hilt, exuding valor and determination.

Marika wore a relaxed smile, facial expression at ease.

Renedia mimicked Sage’s grin, showing small canine teeth.

Yet no matter who, all were full of confidence.

Confidence in Sage.

"Oh, hahaha!"

Sage looked up laughing, "How could I possibly lose!"

The past was the past, now is now.

Previously as a pirate, not reaching the New World, of course, defeat was possible.

Now arrived here, willingly or unwillingly, defeat is not an option...

It’s not the small skirmishes, returning with losses phase.

True defeat would be an overwhelming collapse.

Sage knew better than anyone, everything he had was won through victory; once defeated, all he’d built would fracture instantly.

But Sage had confidence.

No one was qualified to defeat him!
