Chapter 17: Leaving the Warp
"It's over…"
Seeing the 20,000 Psy-crystals credited, Lucan was also surprised. He hadn't expected the harvest from a few Nurglings to be so substantial.
But this was actually because the ritual Scott had been preparing here had already taken several years.
Scott had used his authority to bring those he had killed, either openly or secr...
Chapter 16: The Corrupted Rogue Trader
Verre looked at Lucan beside him. Despite never having been to the bottom hold before, and this being his first time on this voidship, Lucan was somehow intimately familiar with the routes here.
It seemed like Damon and his squad were scouting ahead, but whenever a choice of route was needed, Lucan would make a decision without hesitation.
Chapter 15: Entering the Bottom Hold
"Take away the fallen soldiers and grant them the honor they deserve. Increase the food and living rations for their families!" Lucan ordered.
"Your benevolence will be remembered by all!" Verre responded.
"Verre, I've learned the names of some traitors within the Enforcer teams. Send men to arrest them!"
From the memories, Lucan ...
Chapter 14: Reading Memories
Scott was born. He was born in the cargo district of the lower decks.
His parents, and the clan he belonged to, were pipe repairmen.
As skilled laborers, their lives were such that they never had to worry about going hungry.
His parents were overjoyed at Scott's birth – a healthy baby was a rarity on the lower decks, and it meant the cl...
Chapter 13: More Untouchable Than an Untouchable, More Demonic Than a Daemon
Verre walked to Lucan's side and whispered in his ear.
"Captain, everything is ready. The families of the selected soldiers have served the Dynasty for generations; they are reliable."
Lucan nodded silently.
"Scott, put aside your work for now. I have something I want to discuss with you reg...
Chapter 12: Traitor in the High Ranks
"Elias, I am Lucan, the current Acting Captain of this voidship. You say you saw the Master of Discipline with Lord Ludwig heading down below?"
Lucan quickly connected to Elias's vox. As he said this, Lucan also used his current perceptive abilities to sense Master of Discipline Scott, who was on the bridge.
At this moment, Scott still ...
Chapter 11: The Power of Faith
Turbines whined as the five Reapers ignited their twin tail flames, launching themselves into the air and effortlessly leaping onto a nearby structure.
The goggles worn by the Reapers provided them with infrared vision, and they quickly locked onto the hiding Nurgle psykers. Terrain sensors instantly scanned the vicinity, plotting an optimal route fo...
Chapter 10: The Reaping! Begins Now!
Lucan, while understanding the battle situation through Damon's perspective, also listened to the reports from the ship's officers.
"Captain! Cargo Bays A through D have been cleared. According to data from the servo-skulls, crew losses in the cargo sector are as high as seventy percent. Those rescued will also need to undergo further purity ch...
Chapter 9: All Life is Decay, All Life is Eternal
Although the Priest exuded confidence as he comforted the crowd, he knew they couldn't hold out for much longer. The vox communication, after working for a short while, had cut out again. What terrified him more was that before the riot, he had seen the Rogue Trader, Ludwig, heading towards the even lower decks of the voidship with his pe...
Chapter 8: Awakening Psychic Powers
Gunfire echoed throughout the lower decks. The plasma flames ejected by the Firebats were simply not something mere flesh and blood could pass through.
"Emperor Above! Traitors, feel the Emperor's wrath!" a soldier in CMC-660 armor shouted excitedly, swearing it was the best equipment he had ever used in his life.
The only downside was th...
Chapter 7: Full Refit
Pavian now completely regarded Lucan as the Omnissiah's avatar. His dedication to carrying out Lucan's orders was absolute.
Twenty-four hours passed.
A full 100 sets of Marine-issue CMC combat armor and weapons had been transported off the production line and were stacked nearby.
Unfortunately, the readily available metal on the upper decks was ...
Chapter 6: STC Built
"Intel suggests potential unknown viruses below. Activate sealed life support systems!" Damon commanded the assembled Marines.
Compared to the equipment the Imperium provided its grunts, the CMC series combat suit was equally mass-produced in the StarCraft universe, but its integrated life support system allowed soldiers to fight continuously in hazardous envi...
Chapter 5: Acting Captain
The Warp Engine returned to operation, and the entire voidship stabilized.
"Emperor preserve us, you actually did it!"
Verre's gaze towards Lucan changed. He found himself increasingly unable to fathom the candidate before him. He had read Lucan's file; he wasn't a particularly outstanding candidate. Was technology from the Dark Age truly so miracu...
Chapter 4: SCV Massage Technicians
Taking the elevator, the group ascended directly to the voidship's bridge.
Walking onto the bridge, Lucan finally understood why Verre had said things were "terrible." It wasn't just him; even the very nerve center of the voidship had come under attack.
Crew members were desperately trying to save the wounded, damaged equipment sparked con...
Chapter 3: I Am Loyal!
The atmosphere between the two groups was stretched to the breaking point.
Purser Verre stared wide-eyed at the Marines in their unknown combat suits. He had never seen this model of armor before, but he could be certain these individuals were no Space Marines; the style of their combat suits was far too different from power armor.
Power armor was a p...
Chapter 2: Marines and Medics
Bang, bang, bang
The sounds of explosions and impacts continuously slammed against the grand hall's main door. Clearly, the individuals outside were trying to breach it and eliminate him.
However, how could the door to the chamber holding the Warrant of Trade be broken by such methods?
Lucan knew he was temporarily safe, at least for now...
Chapter 1: Rogue Trader
Late at night, Lucan stared listlessly at his computer screen. "Is it that hard to make a good game these days? If you can't innovate, then stitch things together! As long as the Frankenstein is fun, that's fine too!"
He looked at the game icons scattered across his desktop, feeling no interest in opening any of them.
"I'm only 20, ...

On the Grand Line's Sandy Island, when this island is mentioned, most people will think of Alabasta. And when Alabasta is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind for most people is not the capital city, Alubarna, but Rainbase, the City of Dreams.
For no other reason than that Rainbase is the seat of the current Warlord of the Sea, Crocodile.
Chapter 88: The Soon-to-Join Companion!
Three weeks passed in the blink of an eye.
Looking at the Ace before him, Buggy felt quite speechless in his heart. Not speechless at Ace, but at himself.
Both had awakened Conqueror's Haki, both were being guided for the first time, and for the same amount of time, yet their progress was on two different levels.
Although Buggy...
Chapter 87: The Request!
After a full meal, Buggy spoke before Ace and Luffy had a chance to.
"Monkey D. Luffy, I came looking for you this time for one purpose, and that was to tell you about Shanks's arm. That matter has been explained, so there's nothing more for us to talk about. Portgas D. Ace, may I speak with you alone?"
Faced with Buggy's sincere inquiry, Ace nodded...
Chapter 86: Roasted Meat!
"Now, draw your sword and strike the bamboo sword in my hand. Then you will understand." After speaking, Buggy directly wrapped his Armament Haki around the bamboo sword.
In the next second, the originally wooden bamboo sword instantly turned pitch-black with a metallic luster.
Zoro didn't even draw his sword to strike; he was stunned by Buggy's 't...
Chapter 85: Guidance!
"Lord... Lord Red Nose, please... please forgive this child! He didn't mean to offend you." It was clear that some villagers had already recognized Buggy.
These villagers never expected that Usopp would actually be right today. A real pirate had come, and it was the legendary figure from the newspapers.
Thinking of the three kingdoms that were annihila...
Chapter 84: Why Didn't You Kill Me!
"You're not worthy. I'm just here to clean up the scum." After speaking, Buggy's eyes widened, and an invisible wave instantly spread towards the shore.
With a series of thuds, a large number of the fish-men following Arlong collapsed. The only ones left standing were Arlong, Hatchan, Chew, and Kuroobi.
"Conqueror's Haki." Feeling a chill...
Chapter 83: By What Right!
"Nami, to be honest, our crew's need for a navigator isn't that urgent. Let's not even mention that Mihawk was a lone wolf who roamed the Grand Line for a long time before joining us. Even I, during the era when the Pirate King Roger roamed the seas, had already traveled everywhere with them. Your navigation skills might be impressive for your age, but to us, t...
Chapter 82: Nami!
After bringing Monet from the North Sea to Loguetown, Buggy only told Monet about Goa Kingdom and a pirate with a straw hat, then let her leave on her own.
As for whether Monet could ultimately become a member of the Straw Hat Pirates, Buggy said he was looking forward to seeing it.
Of course, this prank of changing the Straw Hat Pirates' navigator wasn't ...
Chapter 81: Shocked to the Point of Madness!
In the year 1514, with the birth of a pirate crew called the "Red Nose," the entire world was dragged into a state of shock.
A pirate crew of only eight people actually dared to split into three groups and succeeded in annihilating the royal families of three renowned major kingdoms in the North Blue. The world was so shocked it was alm...
Chapter 80: The Relief Carving!
"Mm, understood." After Daz Bonez spoke, with a flash of lightning, he quickly disappeared into the dim tunnel.
Five hours later, at the foot of the Red Line in Destin, East Blue, Daz Bonez brought Rocks to the temporary base of the Red Nose Pirates. At this moment, Buggy and the others were enjoying a hearty meal made with love by Betty.
"Oh...
Chapter 79: The Tunnel is Finally Complete!
Actually, ever since Mihawk had saved Paula, the way she looked at him was different from how she looked at others. Buggy estimated that everyone except Mihawk himself knew this. It was also because of this situation that during the trip to the White Town, Buggy had deliberately assigned Paula to Mihawk's team.
And that was as much as Bu...
Chapter 78: World-Shocking News, Part Three!
"Captain Buggy, are you saying that the fruit itself is just a vessel, like a person, and that eating a Devil Fruit is simply the devil's ability changing to a new vessel? Is that right?"
It had to be said, Rocks's comprehension ability was quite strong.
"That's right. This can also explain why only one of each ability appears at...
Chapter 77: We Meet Again!
To be honest, when Buggy, who was far away in the North Sea, saw the news about Dr. Indigo revealing his method of seizing Devil Fruit abilities, he genuinely had the thought of heading straight for the Sabaody Archipelago.
But Buggy quickly gave up on this idea. He understood very well that going there would not only be of no help but might also lead hi...
