Chapter 75: My Captain Has Arrived
As the flying ship drew closer, people finally got a clear look at its appearance and the pirate flag fluttering above it.
"My god!! That figurehead is massive—and it's solid gold! Look at all the dazzling decorations... is the whole thing made of gold?"
"It's a real Golden Ark!!!"
"That's the Hell Pirates! The crew that killed a Celestial Dragon! Rumor has it their ship is entirely made of gold!"
Pirates and residents of the New World alike stared greedily at the massive vessel.
...
Seizing the moment while Newgate was distracted, Poison Blade Kev launched a sneak attack. The assassin captain, seeing his leader move, reacted instantly, coordinating from the other side to strike at Newgate as well.
The other assassins followed suit, raising their poisoned daggers and charging forward!
Newgate, momentarily captivated by the Golden Ark, quickly snapped out of it. With a surge of his Tremor-Tremor Fruit's power, he prepared to crush these nuisances into dust.
A massive shockwave erupted, collapsing nearby taverns and houses. The assassins, caught in its terrifying force, were sent flying backward even faster than they had arrived.
Bones shattered, bodies went limp like worms, and they collapsed into the ruins.
