One Piece Law Light Novel

Chapter 22: Chapter 4



What does the exchange that just took place mean?

That Wolf once ... was the traveling companion of this Bacca pirate?

I take a look at the side.

Penguin, Shachi and Bepo also struggle to hide their agitation.

- Indeed, you are right! I'm not the type to suppress my desires! So now daddy you know what you got to do, eh? Since the time you've been living on this island, you must have had some information about Captain Ladoga's treasure? Come on, spit it out. In memory of the good old days, I promise I won't kill everyone.

- Pah! This treasure you speak of has never existed. And even if that would be the case, you could always scratch yourself so that I would throw you any information about it.

- You're looking for me, aren't you?

- On the one hand, I highly doubt that you will keep your promise, and on the other hand ... you are the man who in the past reduced the whole town to ashes! I have absolutely nothing to give or offer to a guy like you !!

- Seriously, you continue to blame me for these trifles?

- Twenty years ago, you already tried to meet the challenge of Grand Line. For this purpose, you needed a large amount of food, water, as well as money. And in order to bring it all together, you came back here ... where you had lived ... and you went after the inhabitants you pillaged before wiping out the entire city! I totally refused your behavior, so I decided to leave the crew and live alone, on the edge of the island ... But I don't feel any less guilty about it! I did not know how to prevent my son from committing atrocities ... And I am here today for this reason! This time, I have a duty to stop you!

Wolf's vociferous voice echoes all around us.

Unlike the times when he remonstrates with us, the words he has just used contain a deep anger, an absolute determination.

- Dad ... Do you mean you intend to put a damper on me?

- Exactly. I won't let you devastate this town a second time.

- Ghe pa pa pa! In this case, you are now my enemy. That you were my teammate and my father in the past, it doesn't matter. I swear to myself to run over anyone who gets in my way !!

By pronouncing these words, Bacca raises high in the sky the two giant masses which he holds in hand.

As if in concert, Wolf in turn takes out a firearm from his lap.

- Bepo! Penguin! Shachi! Let's go!

- Woooh !!

We rush directly towards the place where Wolf and Bacca are. But the pirates stationed on the boat a moment earlier intervene and brandish their weapons.

- Where are you going, guys ?! they roar.

- The farm!

I dodge each of their attacks and hit them with the edge at the medulla oblongata to make them pass out.

- Tcha tcha!

- Hop there!

- Get away!

For their part, Penguin and the others progress by sending their enemies waltz with their bare hands.

These guys are way too weak to be a problem for us.

No, the worries will be Bacca and his sidekick, the gigantic sumo wrestler.

- Take this! "Abatou" shot!

I see Wolf aiming at Bacca with a weapon of his invention. A laser beam gun he showed me at home, powerful enough to spray a brick wall.

However, Bacca dodged the shot as if nothing had happened and passed behind Wolf's back.

- You decline, dad ... I immediately knew in which direction and when you were going to shoot. The crappy shot of an old crouton can't get the better of me!

With these words, Bacca crushes his two masses on his father's skull.

Wolf collapses to the ground, motionless.

Don't panic.

Above all, do not panic.

I hold back at all costs from rushing to meet Bacca.

Wolf is not so fragile as to slam a blow with a club. Penguin, who has rushed to Wolf, tells me:

- Law! Don't worry, the old man just passed out!

I would have preferred to see it myself, but the situation unfortunately does not allow it.

- Bepo! Shachi! Take care of the guys around us! Me, I take care of their leader!

- Heard!

I run to plant myself in front of Bacca. Seen up close, he imposes even more.

One shot to knock Wolf out is no small feat. I'll have to stay vigilant. Neither one nor two, I decide that the timing will be essential.

Despite the heavy weight that his two immense masses must carry, Bacca lifts them up and spins them with tremendous ease. And given their long range, I predict that it will not be easy to approach me.

- Mmh? Here then, another funny guy. Who are you?

- I'm with the old man you just knocked down. We are colleagues, I answer without looking away from my opponent.

- Ghe pa pa pa! a colleague of my father! If this is really the case, then you are also my enemy!

No sooner has he finished his sentence than his masses fall on me.

How fast!

I avoided them as best I could, grabbed a salvaged brick on the ground and threw it in the direction of my opponent.

- Do you really think you have me with that ?!

Obviously, Bacca repels my projectile as easily as possible. But I had foreseen it. I threw this brick at him for the sole purpose of giving me a space to approach. Bacca thinks I came empty-handed, but he's wrong. There it is, the fault of inattention.

Because I took care to hide behind my back an iron bar picked up on the way.

The advantage is for me.

- Take this!

I grab the iron bar and strike point blank in the direction of Bacca.

Nickel. Given his position, he will not be able to dodge.

I spoke too fast.

The iron bar slices through the air without touching it.

- What ?!

Impossible.

I'm sure I've reached the top of his head. And yet, I didn't feel the slightest resistance. I don't even have the impression of having touched it.

- So, kid, you thought you won? Error of judgment! Very serious mistake!

In my chest offered to all the winds after the attack that I tried to strike him, I feel the masses of Bacca sinking.

- Shit...

Then he sends me forcefully behind his back.

- Law! Penguin yelped huskily.

- It's okay ... Everything's fine ...

Although trying to play the swagger to leave nothing to show, I still have the knees which tremble so much the shock was powerful. However, my opponent must especially not guess that I am weakened. I have to pretend everything is fine and not make him want to hit me hard.

- Is that all you're capable of? Strength level, it does not change much of the wild boars found in the forest.
