Chapter 264 - 264: Knock Up Stream

On the small island, Buggy the Clown, who had left Red Hair's ship at some unknown time, Mr. 3, the Wax-Wax Fruit user, and Alvida, the Sube Sube no Mi user, had gathered together.

Buggy complained, "That guy Shanks, there's treasure and he doesn't even come to seize it. Is he even still a pirate like this?"

Having eaten the Sube Sube no Mi, Alvida had transformed from a fat woman into a beauty with smooth skin, a hot figure, and not a single freckle left on her face.

Alvida gripped the iron mace in her hand and looked at Buggy: "Hey, you guy, what are we doing here if we're not participating in the treasure hunt?"

Buggy waved his finger and said, "Hmph, once that host found out I came from Red Hair's side, he hired me directly to be a bodyguard."

"We'll earn a bodyguard fee first, and then go seize the treasure. Isn't it better to win twice?"

At this moment, at the center where the three ocean currents converged, the seawater gradually poured into the deep sea, and then a massive rising current erupted.

There were also many bubbles, and at the top of the Knock Up Stream, a small island encased in a bubble was brought out before everyone's shocked eyes.

Donald Moderate said excitedly: "There's no mistake, the island rushing out from the darkness, this is the treasure left by Roger. Pirates, rush to the very top of this island!"

Luffy and Hera looked at this current with excitement and gave the order: "Towards the current, charge!"

The "going merry" gradually transformed under Franky's operation. Franky said excitedly:

"Everyone, look closely, this is my secret weapon. Charge, Emperor Penguin Form!"

Theseus looked at the transforming "going merry" and got excited himself. The wings of the Argo unfolded, and the exposed muzzles were adjusted to the rear.

"Coup de Vent!" "Railgun!"

The voices of Franky and Theseus rang out simultaneously, and the two ships leaped up at the same time, quickly overtaking a crowd of Pirate Crews.

Franky and Theseus looked at each other, their eyes filled with appreciation for the other having the same idea as themselves.

Charlotte Smoothie of the Big Mom Pirates and Jack of the Beasts Pirates were not to be outdone, charging forward recklessly.

Following Jack were the Drake Pirates led by X Drake and the Fallen Monk Pirates led by Urouge. After the two of them were subdued by Kaido, they followed Jack here.

Approaching from behind were Bartolomeo, the Bari Bari no Mi user, and Cavendish of the White Horse. The bow of the Barto Club's ship was made directly into a puppet that looked just like Luffy.

Hera looked at the Barto Club behind them and complained, "What an ugly figurehead. Don't Luffy's followers have any better aesthetic sense?"

Trafalgar Law steered his submarine and dove underground. He had the same idea as Buggy, wanting to find clues to the treasure by infiltrating Festa's base.

As the group gradually climbed, the Straw Hat Pirates and the Argo entered the bubble together, and other Pirate Crews entered one after another.

As soon as they entered the treasure island, many pirates noticed the dilapidated pirate ship on the island and the gold and silver jewelry on it.

Donald Moderate and Ann, responsible for the commentary, explained excitedly: "Could it be that that is the Pirate King's treasure?"

Robin said to Luffy: "That box might be the real treasure chest. Get that one, Luffy."

Luffy nodded: "Leave it to me!" He rushed off the pirate ship.

Sanji, Zoro, Jinbe, and Nojiko jumped off the ship, preparing to seize the treasure chest. The others stayed on the pirate ship, protecting it.

From the Argo, Hera, Kuina, Reiju, and Nami rushed down. Hera said: "Stop the Beasts Pirates, don't worry about the rest, just take more of those treasures on the side."

"Leave that box to me."

Kuina, Reiju, and Nami nodded, and Nami turned into a flash of lightning and rushed over.

Charlotte Smoothie rushed over: "Straw Hat, you actually took in people who defected from our Big Mom Pirates. Your journey ends here."

Jinbe rushed over and used his Fishman Karate to block Charlotte Smoothie's attack: "Straw Hat, you go ahead, I'll stop her here."

X Drake transformed directly into a dinosaur, wanting to intercept Luffy, but was blocked by Sanji.

Urouge was blocked by Zoro.

Ulti and Page One of the Beasts Pirates wanted to get the treasure chest but were blocked by Reiju and Kuina.

Nami turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed to the side of the treasure chest, using her Rumble-Rumble Fruit to melt the gold. Nojiko used magnetism to suck the treasure chest over.

Buggy, flying in the air, caught the treasure chest. After he abandoned the Bara Bara no Mi while in Shanks' Pirate Crew, he had also trained his Two-Color Haki.

After his Armament Haki isolated the influence of Nojiko's fruit, he opened the treasure chest. After seeing the contents clearly, his pupils shook: "This is..."

Jack rushed over, sent Buggy flying, and after seizing the treasure chest, he was also shocked. He immediately shouted to his subordinates behind him:

"Notify Boss Kaido, the situation has changed, tell him to get here quickly."

"Oh, did I let you see what's inside? What a pity."

Unnatural bulges appeared on the ground, and the entire small island suddenly shook as if someone was using their power to pull the island.

Outside the Pirate Expo, Akainu, who had received a report, led the Marines to surround the island.

The bubble wrapping the island shattered directly, causing the island inside to fall downwards.

The pirates who saw the Marine encirclement all panicked. The hosts Donald Moderate and Ann said angrily: "It's Festa, he betrayed us."

Then, they ran backward, wanting to escape from here.

The podium shook, and Ann lost her balance, almost getting hit by a rock falling from the sky. A musical note floated into the air and blocked the rock.

Another set of musical notes stayed in front of Ann; it was Uta, who was constantly paying attention to Ann, taking action.

Ann looked at the musical notes in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and then chose to hug the notes, being carried to the Argo.

Uta reached out her hand to Ann and said friendly: "Hello, I'm Uta, nice to meet you."

After Ann saw the person in front of her clearly, she excitedly shook Uta's hand: "Hello, Uta, I've heard your songs, I'm your fan."

Uta looked at Ann in surprise, not expecting this famous songstress to be her fan as well.

Theseus said: "Don't underestimate the Gold Emperor's business empire. Your songs are being spread all over the world now."
