One Piece: Ero Saiyan

Peter did not choose to take the route through Reverse Mountain into the East Blue.

Compared to the North Blue and the West Blue, which are separated by the Red Line continent, the only barrier between the Grand Line and the East Blue is the Calm Belt.

So, despite the women's objections, he firmly steered the boat into the Calm Belt.

"Haah..."

As he pushed forward with his palms, orange energy bullets shot out from Peter's hands, blowing all the Sea Kings that came to surround them into pieces.

Dozens of ki blasts were fired one after another, dyeing the surrounding sea blood red. The ocean surface was littered with the remains of Sea Kings, each at least 100 meters long or more.

Exhaling, Peter used the Air Dance Technique to slowly descend onto the deck of the ship. He placed his hand on his forehead, looked at his masterpiece, and nodded in satisfaction.

Right. The prince's tactics are originally meant for wiping out the minions. Only that idiot Vegeta would use them on bosses.

While talking to himself, he suddenly heard the sound of three people collapsing onto the ship's deck.

Looking back, he saw the three newcomers, Vivi, Carina, and Mikita, lying on the floor with their eyes rolling back.

"So scary, so scary, Sea Kings are really terrifying~"

The three girls had never seen so many Sea Kings in their lives and were overwhelmed with fear even before Peter launched his attack.

On the other hand, Robin and Hina, being older and more experienced, didn't react too badly, but their faces were pale, and their hands and feet were so weak they felt numb.

"Hahaha, you're really a monster!"

"This kind of strength is far beyond what ordinary people can achieve. Hina accepts her fate of being captured by someone as powerful as you."

The Marine officer's eyes were dazed and unfocused. She no longer dreamed of escaping from Peter or hoped someone might come to rescue her.

In front of such a monster, even if all three Marine Admirals joined forces, they probably still wouldn't be able to save her.

Robin clutched her chest, where her heart was pounding, and let out a long sigh.

There was a deeper attachment in her eyes as she looked at Peter.

Perhaps Peter alone can protect me from the World Government. I feel extremely safe just thinking about it.

Each girl had her own thoughts, but there was no doubt, they were all shocked and awed by the terrifying power Peter displayed.

Seeing how stunned they all were, Peter couldn't help but feel a little proud.

"Well, it's just normal stuff. Sea Kings are smart too, so no brainless creature will keep pestering us for a while. Now, we can either move on or stop and gather some meat. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Robin and Hina, the only two women still conscious, looked at each other and replied in unison:

"Stop! You scared us half to death. Let's grab some meat and hurry to the East Blue!"

"Alright then, get to work."

The three girls who had collapsed on the deck were lifted one by one and forced awake.

Peter personally led the team in carving up the Sea Kings.

Beneath the Ship

At a depth of 20,000 meters below sea level...

Hundreds of giant Sea Kings with bizarre appearances gathered, staring from afar in the direction where a large number of their kin had just been slaughtered. Their enormous bodies trembled.

"That monster… He's scarier than we Sea Kings!"

The bull-shaped Sea King, who had just narrowly escaped Peter, tearfully relayed the "atrocities" of the human to his fellow Sea Kings through their unique form of communication.

"In a single moment, more than 40 of our kin were killed by that strange glowing orb he fired.

And unlike the other humans I've met who could use weird powers, this human can swim freely in the sea!

If I hadn't run fast enough, I'd be one of those floating corpses by now!"

The other Sea Kings, who had gathered upon hearing the noise or smelling the blood, exchanged shocked glances while listening to the bull's account.

Although they were skeptical at first, the floating corpses above were undeniable proof—they had no choice but to believe it.

Among them was a Sea King with a body like a chopped-up fish and a dog's head. After hearing the story, he was so terrified he wanted to flee immediately.

"If he's that dangerous, I'm leaving first. Old bull, what does this human look like? I'll definitely avoid him next time."

As the sole survivor, the bull-shaped Sea King didn't hesitate to describe Peter to his anxious companions.

"He's a man like other humans, with black hair and a monkey's tail."

"Don't go near him. He can kill us with a mere flick of his finger."

All the gathered Sea Kings took the warning seriously and prepared to spread the word to their friends and kin once they returned home.

Just as they were about to retreat, a beam of light shot down from the ocean surface, plunging ten thousand meters deep into the sea and piercing right through the dog-headed fish who had just thought about fleeing.

"Woof~!"

The fish-dog cried out in pain. The beam of light, no thicker than a human fist, wasn't fatal for a creature over 5,000 meters long, but it hurt like hell.

The nearby bull Sea King immediately recognized the source of the light, turned around, and fled without hesitation, his eyes wide.

"Run! That human found us—he's attacking!"

In an instant, hundreds of Sea Kings fled the scene in a panic.

Many Sea Kings who had just arrived, drawn by the smell of blood, were swept away by the others before they even understood what was happening.

Only after they'd fled a great distance did the new arrivals learn the truth from the terrified survivors.

The elder Sea Kings sternly warned them: "Beware of black-haired human males with monkey tails."

From then on, the terrifying legend of the Saiyan spread first among the Sea Kings and, in time, became known to all Sea Kings of the Calm Belt and even the Grand Line.

Back on the Sea

Peter felt a sudden vacuum in the air all around and was filled with question marks.

"Why are they all running away? When I saw that many of them gathered, I thought they were going to attack. I didn't expect Sea Kings to be cowards, too."

He mumbled something, then shook his head and buried himself back in his work.

...

After enjoying a delicious seafood lunch, they continued their journey toward the East Blue.

Strangely enough, although their ship clearly used external wheels for propulsion while stationary, something that should have made a lot of noise and attracted plenty of Sea Kings.

Peter noticed that not a single Sea King was willing to approach them within a 10-kilometer radius.

Most of them spotted the ship from a distance, gave it a long look, and then immediately turned around and left without so much as a second glance, as if avoiding something terrifying.

Leaving everyone thoroughly baffled.
