Bellamy's face was filled with horror. Soone who could forcibly stop him like that? He had never seen such a thing!
He knew better than anyone how difficult that was!
When he turned around and saw it was Vir, his expression beca even more astonished.
"Impossible!!"
He couldn't help but exclaim, unable to comprehend what had just happened.
This useless guy... seed a little unusual!
A bad premonition started creeping into his heart.
Just then, he saw a figure above move in a blur.
In the next mont, a foot ca crashing toward his face!
More accurately—his mouth.
The speed was so fast that he had no ti to react.
*Boom!* A dull impact rang out, and a figure was sent flying before slamming heavily into the sand.
A massive crater instantly ford, its edges even extending to where Montblanc Cricket was standing.
The sudden scene left Cricket utterly shocked.
He stared in disbelief at Vir, who was slowly walking toward them, his expression complex and unreadable.
But the underlings nearby reacted differently—their faces were filled with terror.
So even turned around and fled imdiately.
However, at that mont, the ground itself began to move!
The soil seed to co to life, transforming into massive hands that wrapped around everyone, including Bellamy's first mate.
In the blink of an eye, only a few round dirt spheres remained, with terrified screams echoing from within.
As Vir clenched his right hand, the spheres began to contract.
Soon, everything fell silent.
Only Cricket and the two Monkey Brothers were left, staring at each other with wide eyes.
They swallowed hard.
Their expressions were rich with emotion.
Now, they finally understood what Luffy ant.
He wasn't joking at all.
With soone like Vir here, at the very least, no one on this island would be able to lay a finger on the Going rry.
This strength... was insane!
Vir looked at the dirt spheres, where blood had begun to seep out, and shook his head in disappointnt.
Liquefying the ground only worked in a small radius.
And its strength wasn't very high.
If the target was too far away, he couldn't control it at all.
This ability really wasn't suited for combat.
With a flicker of movent, Vir grabbed Bellamy and lifted him up.
He casually tossed him to the ground, then crouched down and took out a handful of teeth from his dical kit.
Looking at the unconscious Bellamy—whose teeth were shattered, and whose face was deeply dented in—Vir simply got to work.
First things first—a brick to wake him up!
*Thud!* With a loud bang, Bellamy's consciousness snapped back.
After gently awakening his sleeping soul, Vir began his treatnt.
The face? No need to bother. He'd just be uglier from now on.
All that was needed was to fix his teeth and bandage him up.
The rest, he could recover from on his own.
To fix the teeth, they first had to be pulled.
Since all that was left were broken, shattered remains, Vir decided to replace them all.
Taking out a pair of pliers from his kit, he got to work.
So teeth were snapped, so crooked.
Pulling them out was no easy task.
For so, he even had to press a foot down on Bellamy's head and use all his strength to yank them out.
After much effort, he finally finished.
Replacing them was simple.
The teeth he had prepared were self-developed, with an automatic attachnt function.
Once inserted in the right position, they would take root on their own.
The process, however, wasn't exactly pleasant.
Vir didn't hesitate, and before long, Bellamy had a full set of teeth again.
To him, they looked pristine.
But to Cricket and the others, they looked like the most yellowed, uncleaned teeth ever.
So even had worms crawling through them, which utterly disgusted them.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining 1,000 Negative Points!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for acquiring the ability: Charge Up!]
Charge Up: After charging, your attacks will deal increased damage. The longer the charge, the higher the damage! (Max: 3x damage / 6 seconds)
Oh! This was actually a solid offensive ability.
Looking at his newly acquired skill, Vir was quite pleased.
Three tis the damage wasn't a small number.
If he fully charged an attack, he could even create miracles.
This was quite the fruitful haul.
"V-Vir bro... do you really not have a bounty? Are the Marines stupid? Why don't they have a bounty on you?"
The Monkey Brothers stamred as they asked Vir.
In their eyes, his strength was easily worth at least 100 million berries.
Yet such a pirate... had no bounty!
Were the Marines asleep?
No one was cursing the Marines harder than the still-lying Bellamy.
Right now, he hated the Marines more than ever.
How could they be so unprofessional?
Leaving soone like this at 0 bounty?
They were basically setting people up!
If they didn't want the job, they should just quit!
"Bounty? I wouldn't know. That thing is useless anyway—just for scaring people."
Vir said nonchalantly.
But his words left the three of them completely dumbfounded.
Scaring people?
Wasn't it a symbol of strength?
How did it beco just a tool for intimidation?
Just as they were still processing, a commotion broke out in the distance.
Luffy and his crew had returned together.
Zoro held a peculiar-looking bird in his hand.
Its head was constantly pointing backward—toward the south.
They quickly approached and imdiately noticed the massive crater.
They instantly realized what must have happened.
Soone had clearly tried to cause trouble.
"Woo~! Vir, was this you? What a huge crater!"
Luffy exclaid excitedly.
The others wore similar expressions of surprise.
"Yeah. This guy tripped and fell, wrecking the ground like that. Even busted his face—I just patched him up."
Vir said, giving Bellamy a small kick.
Cricket and the brothers twitched at the corners of their mouths.
Who the hell trips and ends up like that?
Even in the world of absurdity, this explanation was beyond ridiculous.
"Oh~ he must've been really clumsy then."
*Bonk!*
"Are you stupid?! Why do you believe everything he says?!"
Nami's fist ca down hard on Luffy's head.
…
After so commotion, they prepared to set sail.
According to Cricket, at dawn, about 40 kiloters south, an Knock Up Stream would erupt.
They needed to hurry.
After bidding farewell to Cricket and his crew, the Straw Hats resud their journey.
Throughout the trip, Luffy was bursting with excitent.
"We're going to the sky soon! This is aweso! We're all going to the sky together!"
*Bonk!*
"Shut up, you idiot!"
After a night of sailing, they finally reached the target location at dawn.
The waters seed calm—nothing unusual.
But Vir knew.
The big event was about to happen.
The Knock Up Stream was about to erupt, and the surrounding water elents were becoming incredibly restless.
As long as they rode the current, they would soar to Skypiea.
