I'm a pirate on Star Iron.

Page 145

Although Luffy's explanation had lessened Seele's fear considerably, she was still somewhat afraid.

I might feel a little more at ease staying by Luffy's side now.

Clara seemed to think the same way, her small body tightly gripping Luffy's right hand and refusing to let go.

"Alright, in that case, let's go inside and take another look before heading back!"

Seeing that neither of them wanted to leave, Naruf also didn't want to stay there any longer.

After venturing deeper to assess the situation, Luffy decided to leave.

Anyway, once Luffy rebuilds, he can just bring Yomi over to oversee things.

I don't care if you're a ghost or whatever, I refuse to believe that even the Void Commander can't be subdued.

Ghost: Kids, will you win?

"Alright, let's finish the tour quickly and leave as soon as possible!"

At this moment, Seele, who was hiding behind Luffy, also urged him on.

So Luffy, with his two burdens, ventured deeper into the area.

Fortunately, they encountered no problems along the way, and soon the three of them arrived at the deepest part of the area.

"Okay, let's go back quickly!"

Upon reaching the deepest part, Seele immediately suggested leaving.

Although Luffy was quite keen to stay and wander around, he had already agreed to it beforehand, so he nodded and said yes.

"Okay, let's go back then!"

Upon hearing that they were going back, Seele and Clara's faces lit up with joy.

Finally, I can leave this place.

But just then, a ghostly green flame suddenly appeared from the ceiling.

Even Luffy saw it this time.

"Wow, a ghost!"

Upon seeing the green will-o'-the-wisp, Seele and Clara felt their legs go weak.

However, Luffy wasn't afraid.

"You're just putting on an act; I can tell you're not human at first glance!"

Although this will-o'-the-wisp really doesn't look like a human!

As he spoke, the Kusanagi Sword appeared in Luffy's hand.

Just kidding, Luffy is a flashy person who ate the Glint-Glint Fruit, so according to elemental classification, he belongs to the light type.

Ghost-type is completely countered by it, isn't it?

In fact, Luffy raised his lightsaber and slashed directly at the will-o'-the-wisp.

As if it were having an idea, the will-o'-the-wisp instinctively pushed back to dodge the incoming light sword.

"Still trying to dodge? Let me see how you dodge this move."

As he spoke, Luffy deactivated the Kusanagi Sword in his hand, and the lightsaber in his hand instantly turned into particles and dissipated.

Then came another move: the Eight-Foot Jade Ornament.

Countless magatama-shaped light projectiles shot directly at the will-o'-the-wisp.

The dense barrage of light instantly engulfed the will-o'-the-wisp along with everything around it.

"It's done!"

Seeing that the attack had hit, Luffy turned to Seele and Clara and said something.

"Look closely, all the fear of the Cold Six Wonders stems from insufficient firepower. Are you still afraid now?"

Seeing the will-o'-the-wisps engulfed by Luffy's light blast, Seele and Clara instinctively shook their heads.

As for the walls and ceiling that were accidentally damaged, Luffy didn't care.

Since it will have to be demolished and rebuilt sooner or later anyway, the fact that it collapsed now can save Luffy some money.

"Damn it! Stop fighting! If you keep going, we're really going to die!"

At that moment, a heart-wrenching cry for mercy suddenly came from the location of the will-o'-the-wisp in the center covered by the light bullets.

But Luffy felt like he'd heard that voice somewhere before.

"Holy crap, it's a Gimmick!"

At this moment, Luffy also stopped his attack.

Even after the light bullets disappeared, the ball of will-o'-the-wisp that had been rubbed hard against the ground still hadn't vanished.

It is now gently floating up again.

"Still not dead? Then take this vertical guillotine strike!"

Seeing that the will-o'-the-wisp had not yet dissipated, Luffy decided to eliminate it completely.

Upon hearing Luffy's words, the will-o'-the-wisp emitted the same sound it had just heard.

"No, no, no, stop! I surrender!"

"Can will-o'-the-wisps talk?"

Seeing that the will-o'-the-wisp could actually talk, Seele and Clara seemed quite curious.

As for fear, it vanished long before Luffy's firepower hit.

Just then, seemingly because of the commotion, a figure about the same size as Clara ran over from not far away.

As he ran, he asked the question to the will-o'-the-wisp.

"W-What's wrong, Grandpa Tail? What happened here?"

Her soft, sweet voice was tinged with fear and nervousness.

Her Taoist-style clothing did not accentuate the girl's dignity; instead, it made her seem like someone who was easy to bully.

Her matcha-colored hair was framed by a pair of drooping animal ears, which confirmed her race.

They're fox people!

Hearing this sound makes one instinctively want to protect it.

"Huo Huo, listen to me! I was almost beaten to death by this person!"

Upon seeing that someone had come to back him up, the will-o'-the-wisp immediately ran over to complain.

Upon hearing the will-o'-the-wisp's words, the little girl named Huo Huo did not appear angry, but subconsciously replied.

"Is there such a good thing?"

Volume 1: Chapter 179 Huo Huo and the Tail-Big Grandpa

Seeing that the girl in front of him not only showed no sadness, but also had a slight smile on her lips, the will-o'-the-wisp couldn't help but curse.

"You wicked Huo Huo, do you have no heart at all?!"

"Shut up, Grandpa Tail!"

After teaching that ball of will-o'-the-wisp a lesson, the fox-person named Huo Huo also looked at Luffy and the others.

Upon seeing Luffy and the others, Huo Huo's eyes clearly showed a hint of doubt.

"What's going on, Uncle Tail? Didn't I tell you to ask these people to leave?"

Faced with Huo Huo's questioning, the will-o'-the-wisp seemed somewhat embarrassed.

"Well, actually, I accidentally ran into a little problem here, haha!"

"Grandpa Tail, you're not trying to scare them away, are you?"

"How could that be, Huo Huo? How could you falsely accuse someone of being innocent?"

"You're innocent? Then explain what that scream I just heard was all about?"

"This……"

Seeing the person and the will-o'-the-wisp talking to each other, Seele, who was somewhat puzzled, asked a question.

"Hey, little sister, who are you?"

Faced with Seele's question, the fox-girl stopped arguing with the will-o'-the-wisp and looked in Seele's direction.

"Yes, I'm sorry, I'm a trainee judge in the Ten Kings Division, my name is Huo Huo."

Huo Huo introduced herself to Luffy and the other two with trembling hands, her tone completely unlike when she spoke to the will-o'-the-wisp.

Ten Kings' Office?

Upon hearing this, Seele naturally knew what it meant.

Does the Ten Kings' Division still employ child laborers?

Looking at Huo Huo, who was about the same size as Clara, Seele asked instinctively.

Upon hearing this, Luffy coughed lightly.

"Ahem, some things are better left unasked about!"

As he spoke, Luffy's gaze fell upon Clara, who was still hiding behind him.

If we're talking about employing child labor, then they are definitely included.

However, Huo Huo explained very honestly at that time.

"Actually, I'm quite special. I was reserved by the Ten Kings a long time ago!"

In layman's terms, it means that someone just casually found a job and ended up eating the government's rice!

"And don't let my small size fool you, I'm actually an adult!"

After all, if we judge adulthood by height, then a certain diviner in the Grand Divination Bureau would probably still be a minor.

Luffy also curiously examined the Huo Huo in front of him.

"Then why are the people from the Ten Kings' Division here?"

"We received a report that Suiyang has been causing trouble in this area recently, so our Ten Kings Division is here to arrest him."

"Suiyang? What's that?"

Seele had obviously never heard of this thing before, and asked curiously.

"Suiyang is also very simple!"

Huo Huo pointed to the ball of will-o'-the-wisp floating beside her and said.

"Grandpa Tail is actually a kind of 'year sun'!"

At this moment, cotton appeared on the will-o'-the-wisp beside Huo Huo, and a human face appeared on its surface, along with a pair of pointed animal ears.

This is probably the true face of Grandpa Tail.

"Tch, don't talk to me like I'm some rare animal!"

The old man with the tail said with some dissatisfaction.

After answering Seele's question, Huo Huo immediately asked a question in return.

"What brings you all here? You know, nobody usually comes to this place!"

The sight of one man and two women in such a deserted place immediately sparked some rather illogical speculations in Huo Huo's mind.

Upon hearing Huo Huo's words, Luffy sighed.

"Now that you've found out, there's nothing we can do!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Huo immediately became nervous.

Does that tone imply that the other party wants to kill him to silence him?

This made Huo Huo tremble with fear.
