However, in the world of One Piece, death is all too common.
Besides, even if we don't have it, we can still make it, right?
"I don't know what a dead soul is?"
Ben Beckman looked at Simon Yan and Kikyo with great curiosity and asked them questions.
Of course, he already had some guesses in his heart.
Simon looked at Ben Beckman and explained somewhat casually.
"After a person dies, their soul goes directly to the underworld."
"However, there will still be some residual soul fragments inside the body."
“These soul fragments can be collected using the Dead Soul Worms.”
"Ultimately, it formed a dead soul."
This is actually Ximen Yan's understanding of a dead soul.
As for whether that's true or not, he wasn't sure.
In any case, Kikyo did not refute his explanation.
Ben Beckman looked slightly more relaxed.
Although dead souls are indeed related to the soul.
But it's not the soul, just the remnants of the soul.
"That's it!"
"Wouldn't that mean killing hundreds of people?!"
Shanks said with a troubled expression.
They obviously couldn't wait for someone to die before they started collecting.
Ximen Yan's attitude was also very clear: he would actively create dead people and then collect their souls.
Although there are many damned people on the island.
However, this is without offending the Red-Haired Pirates.
Shanks is unwilling to take action!
This can be considered one of his insistences!
Simon glanced at Shanks.
Need a reason? That's easy.
“Human traffickers in the Sabaody Archipelago attacked me before.”
"But I had other things to do at the time."
"Only a small number of human traffickers were eliminated."
"Now there is an opportunity."
"I want to get revenge and wipe out all the human traffickers on the island."
"However, my strength is limited by my own."
"Therefore, I'm going to hire the Red-Haired Pirates to help me!"
Ximen Yan said very seriously.
Anyway, it will take several hundred dead souls.
On this island, if you don't choose human traffickers, you're a pirate...
He despised human traffickers even more than pirates.
I even feel from the bottom of my heart that human traffickers deserve to die.
Therefore, the obvious choice is to choose human traffickers!
"Since it was those human traffickers who took the initiative to attack you, Ximen Yan."
“It’s perfectly reasonable to retaliate.”
"And Ximen Yan, you are a friend of our Red-Haired Pirates."
"Our Red-Haired Pirates are naturally willing to help."
Ben Beckman stated bluntly.
It's just about eliminating some damn human traffickers.
There is absolutely no need to hesitate.
Shanks also agreed with this.
"It seems I need to stretch my muscles a bit before returning to the new world."
"Some men, come with me to arrest them."
"Don't delay the rest of the trip."
Lyme Jones smiled.
As a combatant, this kind of thing is naturally his task.
As for the other cadres...
They're just human traffickers; it's not worth the Red-Haired Pirates sending too many people.
"Any body that has been dead for no more than one day is fine."
"However, the body should be preserved relatively well."
Simon Yan reminded Lyme Jones, who was about to leave.
Of course, it's not that a body that has been dead for too long is useless.
It's just that the time since death has been too long.
Extracting the dead soul takes a very long time.
It is far less efficient than using a freshly dead corpse.
"I see."
Lyme Jones nodded.
They then headed towards the illegal areas of the Sabaody Archipelago. 4.9
At the same time, dozens of ordinary members of the Red-Haired Pirates followed.
The Red-Haired Pirates have far fewer members compared to the other three Yonko.
However, all members are elites.
Therefore, it takes less than an hour.
Rem Jones then led many members of the Red-Haired Pirates back to the port.
And each of them brought back at least ten corpses.
Seeing this, Kikyo didn't say anything more.
They directly summoned the Soul Worms to begin extracting souls from these corpses.
Then it merged into Shanks' left arm.
After merging with more than three hundred dead souls.
Shanks' left arm has reached its capacity limit.
As for the remaining dead souls, Kikyo didn't waste them either.
The choice has been integrated into one's own body.
Although she no longer needs the dead soul to maintain her body.
But what if we encounter a situation like Shanks again in the future?
Wouldn't these dead souls then come in handy?
Chapter 428 Entering the New World, Kizaru Appears
After treating Shanks.
The ship's coating was also completed at that time.
No time wasted.
The entire Red-Haired Pirates and Whitebeard Pirates, along with Simon Yan, boarded the ship and began their descent.
They are preparing to travel to a new world through an underwater cave.
As we descended, the light gradually diminished, and the surroundings became increasingly dim.
However, the ship's lights were soon turned on, illuminating the surroundings.
Standing on the Whitebeard Pirates' ship.
Looking at the dazzling scenery under the lights, Ximen Yan was somewhat dazzled.
The fish within the light's range, in particular, made his mouth water.
Although the fish in the sea look increasingly strange as the ship descends.
Perhaps it's because in the dark, no one can see anyone else.
Therefore, his appearance was somewhat arbitrary.
However, Simon's intuition told him that these strangely shaped fish had a delicious taste that was completely contrary to their appearance.
Unfortunately, they were in a hurry to return to the new world.
The Whitebeard Pirates' ship entered the underwater currents shortly after diving.
Driven by the undercurrent, the ship descends at a very fast speed.
12. He had absolutely no time to catch the fish.
What Ximen Yan found even more regrettable was...
Neither the Whitebeard Pirates nor the Red-Haired Pirates had any intention of stopping at Fishman Island.
Instead, they chose to skip Fishman Island and head directly to the New World.
This thwarted Ximen Yan's plan to abduct, no, recruit, several mermaids.
After weighing the options between the mermaid and the spoils of plundering the Don Quixote family.
Ximen Yan could only grit his teeth and continue on his journey to the new world.
Mermaids are desirable, but obtaining Devil Fruits as food is even more important.
Ace comforted Simon for a long time because of this.
He was very excited when he went to Fishman Island.
After seeing Ximen Yan's pained expression.
Ace understood Simon's feelings about not being able to go to Fishman Island.
But now they are in a hurry to bury Whitebeard.
Naturally, it is not possible to dock at Fishman Island.
Unfortunately, if they really want to enter Fishman Island, they'll need to re-coat it.
I can only ask Ximenyan to make do.
Ximen Yan couldn't say anything about it.
We can't let the Whitebeard Pirates bury Whitebeard at night!
Regardless, respect for the deceased is paramount!
