Chapter 249 Villain
With a loud bang, the Heizi landed with great momentum on the bridge deck that had been vacated by everyone.
Compared to the bridge deck, they occupy only a tiny amount of space.
Standing tall on the figurehead's skull-parted head, Jerry folded his arms across his chest.
Then, in everyone's confused gaze, he slowly opened his right hand and stretched it towards the sky.
The next moment, his raised right hand suddenly clenched into a fist, and the air within a radius of several kilometers seemed to pause. Everyone saw that the torrential rain that was originally pouring down madly suddenly stopped in the air.
This counterintuitive scene made all the slaves and guards who noticed Jerry's actions open their mouths involuntarily in shock.
"This...this..."
"Am I dreaming?"
Before they could express more emotion, the suspended raindrops flew upwards one after another, forming a huge water shield in the sky, isolating the still heavy rain outside.
Noticing that the guards and supervisors in the distance had quickly gathered together after being stunned for a moment, and were trying to launch a counterattack in an organized manner, Jerry waved his left hand towards the back and said calmly:
"Go ahead and do whatever you want, I'll take care of everything!"
Jerry was keenly aware that his companions behind him were all holding back some anger, and it was time for them to release it.
With himself watching, Cavendish and Brooke raiding, and the already strong Carrot and Kodaz accompanying them, Deus and the others can completely conquer this kingdom on the bridge on their own.
After all, Jerry continued to activate his Observation Haki and sensed that there were no overly powerful enemies here. Apart from the guards and supervisors, there were only some members of the World Government CP organization.
"Okay! Everyone be careful, we are going to attack!" Deus shouted loudly, showing a rare determination to engage in a head-on confrontation.
As the ship's doctor and the de facto vice-captain of the Kuroko Pirates, although Deus's fighting power is not high, it is only relative to the strong ones in the Grand Line and the New World.
He, Skarl and Kalina have been training tirelessly.
You know, the training culture of the Kuroko Pirates was initially initiated by the persistence of Deuce and Scar.
After such a long period of training, although Deuce and the other two have not yet successfully awakened their Observation Haki, they have indeed made significant progress and improvements in strength, speed, and combat skills.
Nowadays, even if they are facing a brigadier general or even a major general, they can still mediate, but the specific chances of winning still depend on the actual combat situation.
Watching Deuce and the others leap onto the bridge and rush straight towards the guards, Jerry did not move, but stood calmly on top of the figurehead's middle-parted head.
"I know them. They are the Kuroko Pirates who have disappeared for more than a year." A member of the Revolutionary Army secretly observed Jerry, then quickly lowered his head and whispered to several accomplices beside him.
Another young revolutionary who seemed to be the leader gently extended his hand, signaling them to stop their increasingly heated conversation and lowered his voice:
"Everyone calm down and contact the other brothers later. This may be an opportunity. Let's wait and see what happens and be prepared to take action at any time."
After that, they looked at each other, nodded slightly, and dispersed, starting their secret operation.
At this moment, a powerful and frightening aura swept across the entire venue and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Despite this, everyone stopped making noise, and as if by inspiration, they all looked at the figure who seemed extremely tall, yet just like an ordinary person, standing proudly on the bow of the pirate ship.
Jerry looked down at the densely packed slaves with sharp eyes. He was not targeting any particular person, but everyone who met his gaze felt a sense of oppression as if they were being stared at.
It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it seemed like only a moment had passed. Jerry suddenly raised his right fist to the sky and said loudly and passionately:
"You want to be a coward for the rest of your life! Or do you want to be a hero? Even if it's just for a few minutes!"
"What you need is not only courage, but also a heart that yearns for light!"
"You are clearly outnumbered, but you dare not resist. Are you afraid of the overseers who are already lying on the ground? Or are you afraid of the guards who are being defeated with ease? "
"Or is it the high and mighty World Government and Celestial Dragons who don't even consider you as human beings!?"
The sonorous and rebellious words that sounded to everyone instantly shook the entire audience and echoed throughout the heavens and earth.
Living in this world, as long as one has not grown up in a remote mountain corner, even a young child can deeply feel the absolute authority formed by the World Government and the Celestial Dragons' rule for 800 years.
At this moment, no matter whether it was the slaves who were previously unattended and still working like machines, the hidden revolutionary army, or the guards fighting with Deuce and others, everyone's attention was involuntarily focused on Jerry.
Jerry's eyes seemed to emit a dazzling light that struck people's hearts.
“What!? You all want to wait for the savior who has not appeared yet and no one knows if he will appear, or some god from heaven to come and save you!?”
"You are all afraid of losing, and you have never thought about becoming your own savior?"
Jerry's calm but slightly sarcastic words continued to be clearly conveyed to everyone's ears.
Then, he became more angry and shouted even louder:
"If you accept everything that comes your way and don't dare to resist, will you be able to live a better life? Are you all so afraid of death?!"
"You are already in hell, what is there to be afraid of!!!"
Perhaps Jerry's remarks seemed one-sided, or perhaps they simply felt his words were harsh. In the crowd that was gradually becoming more agitated and noisy, a hoarse shout suddenly rang out:
"Who said we dare not resist? Who said we are afraid of death? What do you know?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a roar came from another direction: "That's right, you are an outsider who knows nothing and yet you are talking nonsense here!"
"Do you think we didn't resist? It's because we resisted that we know..."
Having said this, he suddenly realized something and suddenly felt that he could no longer continue.
Many slaves present seemed to be touched by these words and couldn't help but fall into memories of the past.
Then, their expressions became complicated, some showed pain, some felt angry, and they began to express and vent their emotions with the people around them.
"Quick! Stop him! Shut him up!"
At this time, a loud command came from the guard team that was intercepted by Deus and others in the distance.
Looking at the changing expressions on the slaves' faces, Jerry did not choose to just sit there and watch.
The corner of his mouth tilted, and a voice with a hint of contempt came out clearly: "In the end, aren't you afraid? Are you a coward?"
"You damn pirate! What gives you the right to say we are cowards?!" With a bang, a hot-blooded young slave smashed the shovel in his hand heavily to the ground.
He glared fiercely at the figure who was making sarcastic remarks on the pirate ship. Just as he was about to curse, he suddenly felt his hands and feet go light, and the heavy steel shackles that had been locked on his wrists for many days suddenly fell to the ground.
At the same time, the pirate's voice that made him feel extremely uncomfortable sounded again: "You think what I said is unpleasant, right? I'll help you untie the chains, come on! If you have the guts, show everyone that you're not a coward."
"Who else? If you feel that I have insulted you and you disagree, please stand up!"
"Let me see if you dare to resist with your pathetic anger and your courage that is so weak that it will be blown away by a single blow! What can you achieve?"
At this moment, whether from the perspective of the guards, slaves, or revolutionaries, Jerry is undoubtedly a villain who deserves to be beaten.
