Chapter 51: Real Pirates, Helpless Waiting
As the investigation progressed, Lu Kai discovered that the people who came to Habang Village to massacre the villagers did not seem to be doing so for money, but just for the fun of killing.
Because many villagers' homes showed no signs of having been searched, and their limited wealth was still hidden in secret places in their homes, untouched.
This inhumane act is more outrageous than robbery. Lu Kai swore that no matter who they are, he must kill these inhuman beasts completely and make them regret being born into this world.
Finally, Lu Kai suddenly sensed a faint breath, and his eyes immediately regained clarity. He quickly moved and came to a middle-aged man.
The man's head was split in half, but he did not die immediately. He must have been in a state of suspended animation, and at this moment he suddenly woke up.
"Uncle, who did this?" Lu Kai asked as he carefully helped the man up.
All I heard was the man opening his mouth with difficulty, using all his strength to utter a few words in a very small voice: "Vulture...Pirates..."
After saying these words, the man finally collapsed in Lu Kai's arms and lost all breath.
"Vulture Pirates?" Luke looked far out to sea with murderous eyes, as if he could see through space to see the pirate ship floating on the sea.
In the One Piece comics, the audience will never see this scene of Clam Village, because the scene is too bloody and cruel and will never pass the review.
But this is the reality. The cruelty of some pirates is far beyond what people can imagine.
Although Lukai, like King Cobra of Alabasta, hopes that all pirates can be like Roger and Luffy, this is unrealistic.
People like Roger and Luffy are simply outliers among pirates. There is only one like them among ten thousand pirates.
It is normal for a pirate to go out to sea for treasure, to use his knife to plunder for his own selfish desires. This is why pirates are hated and feared by countless people, and this scene also left an indelible impression on Luke.
"The Vulture Pirates..." Luke gritted his teeth, wishing he could eat the flesh and blood of these pirates alive, "I, Luke, will not be a human being if I don't avenge this!"
The Vulture Pirates are the most notorious pirate group in the West Sea.
Now the Great Pirate Era has not yet begun, and the number of pirates is far less than that in a dozen years.
Many pirate groups did not enter the Grand Line because of the temptation of ONE PIECE, but instead operated in their own waters.
The Vulture Pirates are the most notorious and feared pirate group in the entire West Sea.
According to rumors, this pirate group left no one alive wherever they went, and massacred countless villages and islands.
The naval branch has sent many naval forces to encircle and suppress the Vulture Pirates, but these naval forces were either defeated and returned empty-handed, or watched the Vulture Pirates escape.
This also led to the Vulture Pirates running rampant in the West Sea for more than a decade. Not only did they not disappear, but they became more and more rampant, and have grown to a point where they are no longer a character that the Navy branch can deal with.
The captain of the Vulture Pirates is Rodan, nicknamed the Butcher. His bounty is as high as 8000 million berries, and he is a pirate that is feared throughout the West Sea.
But Lu Kai sadly discovered that he had no other options at the moment.
Although he knew that the perpetrators were the Vulture Pirates, these beasts had long since disappeared, and Luke had no idea how to pursue them.
However, Lu Kai did not just sit there in a daze. Instead, he found a Den Den Mushi in the village chief's house and called Russell, the king of the Itachissia Kingdom.
On the other end of the phone, Russell was also furious when he heard what happened in Clam Village.
Itachisia is a large city with a large population, and pirate attacks have occurred before, but such a brutal situation has not been encountered for many years.
Although pirates are desperate criminals, they will also weigh the pros and cons.
Itachisia has a strong military force, and its two kings love their people like their own children. If any pirates dare to attack, Itachisia will never give up.
There were some short-sighted pirates who were hunted down endlessly by the Itachissia Kingdom Army and were eventually annihilated, so many pirates did not dare to attack easily.
What's more, most pirates are after money. If they have to offend Itachisiya, they would rather plunder some wealthy towns, so that they can at least get a lot of treasures.
Even pirates would not want to offend someone to death and gain nothing in return.
Therefore, it is extremely rare to see a group like the Vulture Pirates, who are powerful but do not aim to plunder, but only massacre villages for fun in an extremely cruel way. Their level of meanness and cruelty is comparable to that of the Celestial Dragons.
If the situation in Clam Village is not severely punished, this group of pirates will inevitably become more rampant, which will not be conducive to stabilizing the people's hearts.
So Russell immediately made up his mind to wipe out this group of inhumane executioners no matter what the cost.
But after Russell's rage, he quickly calmed down and said to Luke, "Brother Luke, we have no idea where the Vulture Pirates are going. Searching aimlessly on the sea is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"This is also the reason why it is difficult for the navy to organize effective manpower to wipe out pirates when they cause chaos."
Russell paused and continued, “There are only two ways now.
"The first solution is to wait until the Vulture Pirates make some more noise. We will move out immediately after we get the news and maybe we will have a chance to meet them.
“The second method is to report this matter to the Navy and ask them to pay close attention to it, and at the same time contact neighboring countries to inquire about the situation.
"Then we will summarize all the information we have learned and calculate the approximate location and range of activities of the Vulture Pirates before attacking."
Lu Kai was a little disappointed, but he also knew that what Russell said made sense. These were the only two feasible solutions at present.
The ocean is too vast. If you want to target a pirate group that has no fixed place to stay and roams around, you can only use these methods.
After all, this is not the Grand Line, and there is no need to navigate by recording compasses, so the whereabouts of pirates are sometimes even more elusive.
"Brother!" Lu Kai said solemnly, "If you find any clues, please contact me at the first time, and make sure to let me participate in this operation."
Russell was overjoyed when he heard this. In his opinion, with Lu Kai's extraordinary strength, if he could get his help, they would definitely be able to win this time.
"Don't worry, I will inform you as soon as there is any news!" Russell promised.
After burying all the villagers of Clam Village with great grief and anger, Lu Kai set out on his journey home again with a heavy heart.
Only after arriving at Fountain Town did Lu Kai realize how happy the residents of this town were. Perhaps even they themselves did not know it, because due to the existence of Dimo and Sina, this place could almost be called a forbidden area for pirates.
At least in the West Sea, any pirate who dares to cause trouble in Quanshui Town will never return.
