Chapter 2 You are a low-level swordsmanSeeing this, Gekko laughed.He didn't expect that after dodging a few times, he would be treated as a pushover.A level 1 Kenjutsu, while not enough to run rampant in the East Blue, is still enough to deal with a few small pirates.What's more, his Battojutsu has reached level 2, enough to cut through hard iron!This kind of power, in the entire East Blue, is considered that of an expert!Not to mention, under Haki Infusion, the power is even more terrifying!If it weren't for his Haoshoku being too low level, and fearing it would affect innocent people, he would have already tried this ability that only the chosen few can possess!So Gekko declined the uncle's kind offer!However, this scene, in the eyes of others, was seen as not knowing what was good for him, seeking death!"He's truly a newborn calf who isn't afraid of tigers. Young people don't know the immensity of heaven and earth, and won't know what's good for them until they hit a wall!""Hey, he's looking for death himself, why are you still helping?""Arrogant and ignorant!"The people around shook their heads and said disdainfully.And the few pirates sneered even more!"Such big words, Swordsman. You said a few small pirates can't do anything to you. Alright then, let us witness the strength of this penniless Swordsman!""Arrogant brat, you will pay the price for your words and actions!""Idiot, you're looking for death!""Kill him, let everyone know the consequences of resisting us!"While sneering, they walked towards Gekko, their faces full of malice, their great swords raised horizontally, radiating killing intent, and rushed over!They clearly had killing intent!"Sigh!"The uncle who was preparing to help Gekko also shook his head and sighed, leaving after putting down the Berries."Is that so? The consequences of resisting you?"Hearing this, Gekko smiled disdainfully, raised his Kusanagi Sword, and a crescent moon-like sword energy fiercely slashed out!"Triple Slash!""Boom!"The sword energy swept across, as fast as lightning, forming three stages, slashing towards the few pirates who were rushing over!The sword energy, capable of cutting through hard iron, instantly slashed through the bodies of the few pirates!Their flesh and blood bodies were no match for it!Immediately, their bodies were cut in half by a single sword, blood splattered everywhere, and they were deader than dead!Moreover, the sword energy's power remained undiminished, cutting through the ship's cabin, all the way out. Everything in its path, tables, stools, and chairs, were all shattered!It extended all the way outside the ship's cabin before stopping!"This... this...""It's too exaggerated!""Is he a peerless expert?""What a terrifying slash!"Seeing this scene, the people around couldn't help but stare at Gekko with wide eyes, their faces full of disbelief.The few people who had been mocking Gekko even knelt down on the ground with a thud, dumbfounded!The uncle who had been preparing to help Gekko was also staring blankly, his face full of disbelief as he looked at Gekko."Uncle, thank you for your kindness. Keep your Berries!"Seeing this, Gekko smiled slightly and walked out of the ship's cabin.And at this moment, outside the ship's cabin, a 500-pound aunt was holding a spiked club and fiercely saying to a small boy."Of course it's you, my Captain, Lady Alvida!"Koby said tremblingly, his legs shaking."Hahaha!"Alvida burst into laughter, the fat on her face shaking exaggeratedly.The surrounding pirates also burst into laughter.Victorious, they were still unaware of what was happening inside the ship's cabin at this time."Alvida, Koby, it really is the Pirate World, and I actually came to this ship, the place where Koby and Luffy first met!"Seeing this scene, Gekko was now completely certain. He had truly come to the Pirate World.Immediately, he felt excited.In this era of great voyages, finding the great treasure One Piece is every pirate's dream, and he is no exception.Since he has come to this world and has such a powerful system, he naturally wants to search for it.What's more, as a pirate fan, he naturally doesn't want to see the countless regrets from his previous life, such as the deaths of Ace and Whitebeard.And that blank hundred years of history, he wants to figure it all out.Since he has transmigrated, he naturally has to figure all of this out.However, going out to sea is not an easy matter. First, you need a ship that can withstand storms, and second, a navigator and an archaeologist are indispensable."Since that's the case, why not join Luffy's crew? Although I don't want to be the Pirate King, I do want to know what this history is and what One Piece contains."Gekko muttered to himself, making up his mind."Captain, Captain, it's bad, a Swordsman killed several of our brothers!""Captain, that Swordsman is too strong, he killed them with one sword!""Captain, only you can deal with him!"Just then, a few pirates who saw the situation was bad and ran away, quickly ran towards Alvida."Trash, what are you panicking about? It's just a Swordsman, isn't it? As long as he's not Pirate Hunter Zoro, there's nothing to be afraid of!"Seeing this, Alvida roared fiercely, bringing her spiked club down in anger."Crack!"A large hole was directly smashed into the deck, and the few pirates who were rushing over were sent flying."So you're the one who killed my men?"Then she spotted Gekko and shouted.No other reason, Gekko had walked out at this time, holding the Kusanagi Sword, with no one around, it couldn't be more obvious!"It's me."Gekko nodded and said indifferently."Seeing that you have good skills, join us, become my subordinate, and I will take you to the Grand Line to search for One Piece together!"Alvida grinned and tried to recruit him."Hehe, kid, you've got some good skills, actually managing to kill a few of our brothers with just a sword. But since the Captain has taken a liking to you, we'll spare your life. Hurry up and come over!""Is there even a Swordsman on this kind of ship? But as long as he's not Pirate Hunter Zoro, there's nothing to be afraid of! Our Captain is a well-known figure in the East Blue!""Kid, hurry up and come over. It's your good fortune that our Captain has taken a liking to you!"Around Alvida, several pirates shouted."Heh heh, a mere few small pirates, a broken ship, and you want to go to the Grand Line and try to recruit me? You're not qualified enough!"Hearing this, Gekko said disdainfully."So you're refusing me?"Hearing this, Alvida's eyes narrowed, and a surge of killing intent burst forth!"Nonsense, every word I said was clear. Are you deaf?"Gekko sneered."Seeking death, you dare to speak rudely to our Captain, you brat are tired of living!""An insignificant Swordsman, daring to be arrogant in front of our Captain, you probably don't know how powerful our Captain is!""Let's not waste words with him, Captain, let us deal with him. This kind of small fry doesn't need you to make a move!"The few pirates were instantly enraged. They were bloodthirsty and extremely vicious, when had they ever been afraid!Immediately, they rubbed their fists and shouted angrily!As soon as Alvida gave the order, they would strike with deadly force!"Hahaha!"Alvida burst into loud laughter.
Chapter 3: Luffy Invites Me to Join His CrewShe swung her spiked iron club and shouted!"Attack!"Immediately, several pirates rushed forward, brimming with killing intent and looking incredibly fierce!"Koby, who is the most beautiful woman on this sea?"Alvida then looked at Koby and asked."It, it is... Lady Alvida, you are..."Facing Alvida's imposing aura, Koby said with a trembling voice.However, halfway through his sentence, his mouth suddenly dropped open, and he stared at Moonlightwith an expression of utter disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost; he couldn't continue speaking."Hmm?"Hearing Koby's unfinished sentence, Alvida shot him a glare, about to get angry, but seeing Koby's stunned expression, she followed his gaze and her eyes narrowed, her whole demeanor becoming serious."My god, what is that!""So amazing, truly amazing!""Is this the true strength of that swordsman? To be this formidable!"Meanwhile, the scene unfolding on the deck also caught the attention of the passengers inside the cabin. They all walked out and were immediately met with a shocking sight!Facing the dozen or so pirates charging at him, Moonlight raised his long sword, and a crescent-shaped sword energy, ten meters wide and resembling a beam of Moonlight, was slashed through the air!The sword energy cut across the sky with incredible speed. The few pirates charging forward didn't even have time to react before they were struck down by the blade, killed instantly!Furthermore, the sword energy continued to sweep forward, its terrifying power causing the surrounding ships to suffer damage as if hit by tidal waves!The power of Moonlight's single strike was truly terrifying!"How is it possible? Cara and the others, over a dozen of them, were wiped out by a single strike?""What kind of Kenjutsu is this? It looks like Moonlight, so amazing!""With this kind of strength, even Pirate Hunter Zorowouldn't be a match for him!"The remaining pirates were stunned. Facing such terrifying power, they no longer dared to act presumptuously!Some were even so scared that they fled far away!"Damn it, to think he's this strong. It looks like I have to deal with you myself!"Alvida's expression was extremely serious; this kind of Kenjutsu was truly terrifying.Even she might not be a match for him.However, as a Captain, if one were to retreat immediately upon encountering a powerful enemy, then why even set sail, let alone go to the Grand Line to obtain the Great Treasure!Pirates are, by nature, bloodthirsty outlaws who live life on the edge!Suddenly, Alvida charged forward. Her five-hundred-pound body was like a human tank; as she ran, the deck seemed unable to bear her weight and shook violently.Coupled with the spiked iron club weighing over a hundred pounds, her power was even greater!This single blow carried the force of four or five hundred pounds!As the iron club swung, the surrounding air faintly whistled, which was enough to show her strength!"As expected of our Captain! One strike like that would crush even a tiger to death!""Go Captain, finish off this penniless swordsman!""Captain is mighty! Captain is mighty!"Seeing this, the surrounding pirates cheered one after another."Oh no, although this female pirate is a bit fat, her strength is immense. This swordsman might not be a match for her!""He's too young, truly too young. How could he be a match for this pirate leader!""This is bad!"The surrounding passengers also exclaimed in alarm!The reason Alvida could run rampant in this sea area was because of her formidable strength.This strike was enough to prove everything!"Watch out!"Even Koby couldn't help but shout.As her prisoner, he knew all too well how formidable Alvida was!"It's fine, that person is very strong!"However, at this moment, a cheerful voice suddenly rang out.A seventeen-year-old boy walked up beside Koby, wearing a Straw Hat, and watched the scene before him with an indifferent expression!"Hmm? Who are you?"Hearing this, Koby couldn't help but be stunned, and he looked at the boy beside him and asked."My name is Monkey D. Luffy, and I'm the man who will become the Pirate King!""Pirate King?"Koby was stunned, staring blankly at the boy who had suddenly appeared before him, seemingly unable to process that someone had materialized by his side. Then, as if he had been stomped on the foot, he jumped up, his face full of shock."You, you, you... Could it be that you are talking about the great treasure left behind by the man who ruled the world, the strongest man, the previous Pirate King Roger, the One Piece?""That's right."Luffy nodded, revealing a bright smile."I'm currently looking for crewmates, and this guy is very strong. I want him to be my partner!"Then Luffy pointed at Moonlight and said.Just then, a loud bang was heard.It was as if a balloon had suddenly burst. Koby was startled and quickly looked over!He immediately witnessed an incredibly shocking scene!Alvida, who was charging at the nameless swordsman, swung her iron club as she rushed forward. Just as it was about to strike the swordsman, he didn't dodge or evade; instead, he held up one hand and caught Alvida's hundred-pound iron club head-on!Then he threw a punch, slamming it hard into Alvida's body!Alvida let out a scream, and her five-hundred-pound fat body was sent flying toward the sea, soaring far away until she disappeared from everyone's sight!"Ah! Alvida was knocked away?"Koby was shocked, completely unable to believe the scene before his eyes!"Oh no, the Captain has been knocked away by this swordsman!""Run! Captain! Captain!"Seeing this, the pirates were incredibly shocked and dared not stay any longer. They scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing rapidly!"So amazing, he actually knocked away that Alvida!""You are our savior. If it weren't for you, we would have been in trouble!""Thank you, you saved us all!""That's great!"All the passengers cheered and gave Moonlightgrateful smiles."Hehe!"Moonlight smiled faintly and didn't pay it any mind; to him, Alvida was just a minor nuisance!"By the way, I'm a little hungry!"Just then, his stomach suddenly growled.Having just transmigrated over, he was starving.Now that he had exerted himself, he was even hungrier.Moonlight said, feeling a bit embarrassed."Hahaha, hurry, hurry! Bring out the best wine and food to thank our benefactor!""Alright, alright, alright!""Hahaha!"The passengers laughed and quickly treated him to good wine and food.Moonlight had saved their entire ship; never mind good wine and food, even if he asked for money, they would give it to him.This was their benefactor!"Food! Oooooh, I want some too!"Hearing about good wine and food, Luffy's eyes lit up instantly. He shouted excitedly, ignoring Koby, and ran inside. Everything was already prepared, so without caring about anything else, he began to stuff his face as if no one else was around.Seeing this, Koby gritted his teeth and followed him in."The food on the pirate ship isn't bad; it's delicious."With the enthusiastic hospitality of the crowd, Moonlight quickly ate his fill. He had to admit, it was indeed incredibly delicious.Afterward, he exchanged pleasantries with everyone, exited the cabin, and admired the beautiful seascape!"You are very strong. How about becoming my crewmate?"At that moment, Luffy let out a burp, walked out feeling satisfied, saw Moonlight, and extended an invitation.
Chapter 4: Bellembe"Be my companion?"Looking at the enthusiastic Luffy, Gekko couldn't help but feel like laughing and crying at the same time.He was just thinking about how to get on Luffy's ship, and he didn't expect to be invited directly.After all, in the vast sea, it would undoubtedly be a joke to try to find One Piece alone.Without a navigator, you wouldn't know the direction.Without a chef, you would starve to death sooner or later!Without an archaeologist, who could solve the mystery of the World Government's blank hundred years?Without a ship doctor, what would you do if you got sick?Sailing the sea is not a simple matter."That's right, my name is Monkey D. Luffy, and I am the man who will become the Pirate King, so be my companion."Luffy nodded and said enthusiastically.I have to say, when Luffy smiles, he does have an irresistible charm."This…"Gekko hesitated. He had planned to get on Luffy's ship, and he didn't expect to be invited directly, but wouldn't that be a bit too hasty?"Haha, great! My luck is really good. I originally planned to invite ten people, and I immediately got one."At this moment, Luffy burst out laughing, patting Gekko on the shoulder, looking like they were old friends.It was as if Gekko was already his person."…"Gekko was speechless. This guy really was something.Koby was also speechless. It was the first time he had seen someone invite someone like this."Luffy, is it? I can accept your invitation, but I have to say this first, my goal is One Piece and the pursuit of that lost history, so if you invite me onto the ship, there must be an archaeology expert."Gekko said."Okay. That's what I was thinking too. As long as we meet one, I will definitely invite them, and besides a historian, we also need a chef, a musician, a navigator, a shipwright, and a ship doctor."Luffy nodded and readily agreed."Alright, Captain!"Hearing this, Gekko nodded and agreed."Great! Before we set sail, let's take this guy to a nearby island."Luffy nodded, pointing at Koby behind him."This guy? You're really helpful."Gekko said to himself, nodding.Koby's dream is to become a Marine. If he hadn't met Luffy, others wouldn't have paid him any mind."Thank you Mr. Luffy, thank you Lord Gekko!"Koby said gratefully, tears streaming down his face. He had finally met good people!"Hey, give us a small boat."Then Luffy shouted to the Captain.Seeing Gekko, the Captain nodded. For his benefactor, let alone a mere boat, he would give him anything he wanted.Immediately, the three of them got on a small boat and headed towards a nearby island.Just as the three of them left, and everyone's attention was focused on them, a nimble figure flashed across Alvida's pirate ship.Although the speed was very fast, Gekko still saw it."Nami?"Gekko smiled.…The three of them drifted with the wind and quickly found an island.They landed on the island and found that it was a small island called Shells Town.The Marine 153rd Branch was stationed on the island, guarded by Colonel Morgan, to prevent pirate invasions."Let's find a place to eat first, I'm starving!"As soon as they landed on the island, Luffy shouted about eating and ran towards a restaurant in the town without saying a word."Ah, what kind of stomach do you have? Didn't you just finish eating a while ago! And you just left us behind like this?"Koby was dumbfounded, looking at Luffy who had sped away and quickly disappeared, he said."Let's go!"Gekko waved his hand. Luffy's reputation as a glutton is very famous in the pirate world, and he already knew about it.Then he walked towards the town.Finally, they found Luffy in a restaurant.At this time, there were already forty or fifty plates in front of him, and Luffy was eating one plate after another, devouring them greedily.This way of eating and appetite instantly stunned everyone.Koby was already surprised, but now he was even more surprised."Ah, you're here, come and eat quickly."Seeing the two of them, Luffy greeted them while stuffing food into his mouth.Gekko was speechless, changed seats, and ordered separately.It was a joke. If you ate at the same table as Luffy, in the blink of an eye, you would find that your food had disappeared.In the end, it all went into Luffy's stomach."Do you know each other?"Delicious food was quickly served, and a little girl brought it over, looking at Luffy curiously."Yes, he is our Captain. We are pirates."Gekko glanced at the little girl and smiled.It was Rika, the girl who brought food to Zoro.Luffy really knows how to choose a place."Pirates!"Hearing these two words, Rika's eyes widened instantly. There was no fear, but rather curiosity.Apparently, in this era, pirates are not a strange thing, and many people even dream of going to sea and getting One Piece."Yes, they are pirates, I'm not…"Koby said.However, before he could finish speaking, there was a loud bang, and a young man walked in, followed by more than a dozen Marines."No, it's Helmeppo! Quick, let's go!""Oh no, this kid is lording over people with his father's power. Everyone, leave quickly, don't let him target you!""Is he here to cause trouble for this restaurant again?"Seeing these people, especially the young man leading them, the surrounding diners scattered in a hurry, clearly very afraid of the young man."It's Young Master Bei, please sit down, the food will be served soon!"Seeing Helmeppo, the proprietress quickly greeted him.The other party was the son of a Marine Captain, the person who controlled this island, and she couldn't afford to offend him."Mama, why do you have to entertain this kind of person? He has been eating and drinking for free for many days."However, the little girl Rika shouted loudly."Shut up, Rika!""Shh, do you want to cause trouble? You can't afford to offend the other party!""Quick, shut up!"Hearing this, the proprietress quickly shouted.Several waiters even pulled the little girl."Oh? It's you. I know you. You're the one who secretly brought rice balls to Zoro, right? I just let you off the hook, it seems you haven't suffered enough!"Seeing Rika, Helmeppo's eyes lit up, and then he sneered.Half a month ago, his dog was eating here and was hit by Rika. He was about to cause trouble, but was stopped by Zoro.To protect this restaurant, Zoro made a bet with him, voluntarily being imprisoned for a month without eating or drinking, and he would let this restaurant go. It has been almost 20 days now.To repay the favor, Rika secretly brought the rice balls she made, but unfortunately, she was caught by Helmeppo and thrown out."You bad person, you are acting like a tyrant because of your father. However, Zoro has already made a bet with you, and during this time, you are not allowed to set foot in this restaurant. You are breaking the agreement!"When Zoro was mentioned, Rika became even more angry."Who is Zoro?"Luffy was eating heartily, and upon hearing this, he couldn't help but ask."He is a famous pirate hunter in the nearby sea area!"Someone explained and recounted what had happened."So that's it!"Hearing this, a hint of anger flashed in Luffy's eyes."Are you preparing to interfere again?"Seeing this, Gekko smiled.Roronoa Zoro, he also wanted to see him
Chapter 5 Roronoa. Zoro"Breaking the promise? Hahaha, kid, do you think this is a game? Breaking the promise, only a fool would keep any promise, not just you guys, but Zorois also dead for sure.""I've already planned to execute him tomorrow, hahaha, you stupid guy, actually keeping some promise, idiot!"Hearing this, Helmeppo burst into laughter as if he had heard a hilarious joke, pointing at Rika and laughing loudly."What! You! Damn it!"Rika was instantly enraged, but what could she, a little girl, do!"How despicable, to do such a thing as the son of a Colonel!""What a pity, truly a pity, that Pirate Hunter Zorowould actually die at the hands of such a person!""Damn it, it's truly too despicable!"The surrounding crowd also expressed their indignation, cursing in their hearts.However, facing the strong, where did they have any courage to resist!"Hahaha, bring the good wine and food to this master, maybe if this master is happy, I'll spare your little shop, otherwise, I won't wait until tomorrow, I'll tear down your..."Helmeppo laughed loudly, shouting towards the proprietress."Bang!"However, just then, a pair of fists suddenly flew over, smashing hard into Helmeppo's face, knocking him against the wall in one go."What trash!"Luffy was extremely angry, speaking out against injustice."Young Master!""Oh no, the Young Master has been hit!"Seeing this, several Marine soldiers exclaimed and quickly helped Helmeppo up!"Oh no, you hit Captain Moka's son, this will offend the Marine!""Young man, you've caused big trouble, hurry and run!""That's right, Captain Moka is known as the Axe-Hand, his strength is very great, you won't be his opponent!"And the surrounding crowd also cried out in alarm.Although it felt very satisfying to watch, Helmeppohad a big shot behind him and should not be provoked.They immediately advised him."You, you, you... you actually dared to hit me, do you know who my father is? My father is the controller here, a Navy Colonel!"Helmeppo looked at Luffy and roared angrily."So what?"Luffy said coldly, his eyes becoming sharp."You, you, you... if you have the guts, don't run, you wait for me, I'll have my father kill you right now, daring to offend me, you're looking for death!"Helmeppo was instantly frightened; having always thrown his weight around, this was the first time he had seen someone fearless of his father, so he put on a brave front but was weak inside, shouting."Is that so? No need for him to come, I'll go and punch him away right now!"Luffy said coldly, finished speaking, rushed out the door, and walked towards the Navy Base.Helmeppo was instantly dumbfounded, not expecting that Luffy was not only fearless but also planned to punch his father away!"Damn it, just you wait!"Afterwards, he also walked out and went to report to Monka."Mr. Luffy, Mr. Luffy!"Seeing this, Koby also ran out."Heh heh, he really loves to fight against injustice, something like this isn't rare in a world of the strong preying on the weak like the pirates."Gekko smiled, paid the bill, and followed."Hey, hey, hey, are you guys really planning to go find Captain Moka? That's the Marine!""That's right, the Marine themselves are powerful, and Captain Moka is known as the Axe-Hand, his strength is incredibly great!""Are you guys really going to do this?"Seeing Gekko also leave, the surrounding crowd couldn't help but say in disbelief."Axe-Hand? Although I don't know how strong he is, a mere Colonel is not worth mentioning to me, as for the Marine, that doesn't matter, we are pirates, naturally enemies!"Gekko shrugged, which counted as an answer, and left the restaurant in the blink of an eye."Pirates! They are pirates! No wonder they weren't afraid of the Marine, they are indeed natural enemies!""To think that pirates would dare to come to an island with a Navy Base, they really have guts, but they are different from those other pirates, they actually stood up for a small matter!""They are not ordinary pirates!"Hearing this, the surrounding crowd was stunned, not expecting the three of them were pirates.Pirates and Marine were naturally enemies, so it was natural they weren't afraid, but they didn't expect pirates would actually stand up for people."Pirates? To think that the Marine oppress us, while pirates want to save us, this is truly laughable!"And more people sighed in their hearts.The Marine originally represented justice, and pirates were evil, but it was the exact opposite now."Even if they are pirates, they are not ordinary pirates, unlike those villains who burn, kill, and loot, they are good people!"Rika said loudly, and immediately rushed out as well."Rika!"The proprietress quickly chased after her, but by then Rika had already run out of sight....At the Navy Base, on the large parade ground, a seventeen-year-old young man with green hair and a bandana was tied to a cross, the scorching sun baked the earth, making people feel hot all over.However, the young man had a stern face, completely unconcerned, facing the sunlight, seeming to be waiting for something."You're Zoro, right!"Just then, a young man wearing a Straw Hatclimbed over the high courtyard wall, walked over, and asked."Get lost!"Zoro replied with just one word."You're really interesting, Rika asked me to come save you, the Colonel's son broke the promise and is going to execute you tomorrow."Luffy smiled brightly, speaking carelessly."What!"Zoro suddenly raised his head, although he had been hungry for more than half a month, his eyes were still sharp, like a drawn sword, incredibly sharp."It's true, we personally heard Helmeppo say it, Mr. Zoro!"Koby also walked over and said to Zoro."Mr. Zoro, the Navy Colonel relies on his power to oppress the villagers here, his son Helmeppo broke the promise and wants to kill you, now he should have already gone to report it, the Marine will likely take action soon, please save them.""Damn it, they are indeed a bunch of petty people!"Hearing this, Zoro finally believed it, although he had already expected the other party wouldn't keep the promise, but for the sake of the righteousness in his heart, he did as he said, not expecting it turned out this way."Who dares to trespass into the Navy Base!""How bold, you actually want to release the prisoner, immediately notify the Colonel!""Surround them, don't let them escape!"Just then, the Marine discovered the situation here, immediately opened the gate, and dozens of Marinesoldiers surrounded them."Are they the ones who dare to defy my authority?"And at the same time, a rough roar sounded, it was Monka who had received the news and immediately rushed over.And thus saw Luffy and the others."Oh no, it's Captain Moka, this is bad!"Seeing this, Koby couldn't help but cry out in alarm.He quickly hid behind Luffy."Damn it, untie these ropes for me!"Zoro also couldn't help but shout."Oh oh oh!"Hearing this, Luffy quickly started working, but the ropes tying Zoro were special ropes, the more Luffyuntied them, the tighter they got!"Pirate Hunter Zoro? Hmph, I don't care who you are, anyone who dares to defy my authority deserves to die, go, kill them for me!"
Chapter 6: Zoro Joins the GangSeeing this, Monka sneered and gave the order.Immediately, a dozen Marines aimed their guns and fired decisively!Bullets cut through the air and shot towards them!"Damn it, hurry up! How can I die in a place like this!"Zoro couldn't help but become anxious."Ah ah ah!"Koby screamed and hid behind Zoro and Luffy!"This rope is getting tighter the more I try to untie it, but it's okay, my companion will take care of them."Luffy was also in a hurry, but not because of the flying bullets, but because the rope was getting tighter the more he tried to untie it, which gave him a headache."Your companion?"Zoro was startled.Just then, a crescent-shaped sword energy slashed from outside the courtyard wall!The tall courtyard wall instantly collapsed, the ground was split, and the sword energy swept across, incredibly fast. A dozen bullets flying towards them were instantly cut through!Immediately after, the dozen Marines holding guns were also sent flying by the aftershock of the sword energy slash!"What!"Zoro was instantly shocked. He was a swordsman, and a sword fanatic, so he naturally knew what such a slash represented. He was filled with shock and stared intently at the person walking in from outside the courtyard wall."Lord Gekko!"Koby said excitedly."Oh, you're here. I'll leave them to you. I need to untie this rope properly."Luffy said indifferently, concentrating on untying Zoro's rope."Okay."A faint voice sounded, and then Gekko appeared in everyone's line of sight."Is this the guy who cut the bullets with a single sword?""He can emit sword energy! And the sword energy is faster than bullets!""So strong, what a terrifying slash this is!"The Marines couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Gekko.Such a slash could be described as terrifying."Who are you? How dare you oppose the Marine? I am Colonel Monka of the 153rd Branch!"Monka stared intently at Gekko and shouted.Although he was confident in his own strength, seeing Gekko's slash like this, he knew his limitations. He definitely wasn't a match for a ruthless person like Gekko.He immediately tried to pressure him with his position as a Marine Colonel!The Marine represented the strongest force in the world, and no one dared to challenge them!"Die!"However, Gekko ignored him. He swung the Kusanagi Sword, and a ten-meter-long crescent sword energy spread out from his body towards all directions!"Crack!"Instantly, within ten meters, all the Marines were sent flying by the sword energy. Gekko didn't kill them, so they were only seriously injured.And before Monka could react, the axe hand on his left arm was instantly shattered, and his huge body was also sent flying backward, flying a full fifty meters before landing on the ground, bleeding profusely, seriously injured, and unconscious!With one strike, all the Marines were sent flying!At the same time, the system's voice sounded in Gekko's mind!"Ding! You have used Battojutsu once, gaining 100 * 100 experience points!""Battojutsu Lv2 400000 / 100000 [Can be promoted]"The progress of Battojutsu increased again, and it would soon reach Lv3, the level of cutting steel!"This guy, with just one sword!"Zoro's pupils constricted as he stared intently at Gekko.This Kenjutsu deeply shocked him!"Swish!"At this moment, Gekko swung his sword, and the rope on Zoro's body was instantly cut!"Ah, it's broken!"Seeing this, Luffy couldn't help but be disappointed."Lord Gekko, you're really amazing!"Koby said with a face full of admiration."Forget it, the matter is resolved, let's go!"Luffy helplessly waved his hand, ready to leave."Okay, Koby, you stay here and be a Marine."Gekko nodded and prepared to leave."Who exactly are these guys!"Zoro muttered, then suddenly shouted towards Gekko."Hey, who are you?""We are Pirates. My name is Monkey D. Luffy, a man who wants to be the Pirate King. Our goal is to find the great treasure One Piece."Luffy replied."Pirates? Let me join you."Zoro frowned and said."Huh?"Luffy was stunned and stopped walking."Although I disdain the crooked ways of Pirates, I have offended the Marine and have nothing to do with justice anymore, so I'll join you. My goal is to become the world's greatest swordsman. Your crew has someone like that, and I'm very excited."Zoro said, looking at Gekko with an excited expression."The world's greatest swordsman, huh? Great, great, you can join us and become our companion."Hearing these words, Luffy immediately became excited and decisively approved Zoro's joining!"Are you that casual?"Gekko said helplessly.However, Luffy's eye for people was indeed quite accurate. There was a sharp will about Zoro."Even the Pirate Hunter..."Koby said sadly.After witnessing Monka' brutality, he was suddenly disappointed in the Marine."Haha, Koby, not all Marines are like him. We're leaving, you stay here."As if understanding Koby's thoughts, Luffy patted his shoulder and said with a smile."Mr. Luffy!"Koby was moved.He also knew in his heart that it was just what he saw before him that made him temporarily disappointed.Becoming a Marine was his dream for many years, how could he give up easily!"You are amazing, you actually defeated Monka, I knew it!""Everyone, thank you, let's celebrate for you!"Just then, Rika ran over, saw Monka lying on the ground, and couldn't help but cheer, then said happily."Celebrate? That means there's a lot to eat!"Hearing these two words, Luffy's eyes lit up, and he became excited.He immediately ignored everything else and ran towards the town."Haha, everyone come together!"Rika was overjoyed, especially looking at Zoro.Zoro nodded and didn't refuse...."Lieutenant, are you just going to let them run away like this?"Just as Gekko and his group were leaving, at the top of the Marine Base, many Marines gathered together, looking at the scene below, and couldn't help but ask the person in charge.He was the Lieutenant of the 153rd Branch, second only to Monka in the branch.Now that Monka was defeated, everyone looked to him as the leader."They are Pirates, representatives of evil. We are Marines, messengers of justice. How can we let Pirates act recklessly under our noses? Arrest them in an hour!"A glint flashed in the Lieutenant's eyes, and he ordered righteously!"An hour? Yes!"Hearing this, all the Marines immediately responded.The same light flashed across their faces.Marines and Pirates were indeed natural enemies, but they had their own justice in their hearts!Monka was cruel and violent, even treating his own people harshly, running rampant in the village and exploiting the villagers. They had long been filled with anger.The justice of the Marine was definitely not like this!
WTR-LABPirate Luffy Invites Me on BoardCh. 7 / 5431.3%WebWeb+AI#7Don't reason with Luffy.Chapter 7 Don't Reason with LuffyWhy did he join the Marine?Isn't it because the Marine represents justice and punishes evil while promoting good?Everyone has their own scale in their heart to measure good and evil, so at this time, not a single person objected to the Lieutenant's decision!Instead, looking at Monka who was lying on the ground and his son Helmeppo who was so scared he was paralyzed on the ground, a hint of schadenfreude flashed in their eyes...."That's great, Lieutenant Monka and his son have been defeated!""Thank you for saving us, you are heroes.""Come, come, let's celebrate the heroes, let's toast to the heroes!"Just then, the news of Lieutenant Monka and his son's defeat spread throughout the town, and everyone cheered and was overjoyed!Lieutenant Monka and his son, relying on their strength and power, had been lording over the town, causing the people to live in misery and complain constantly. Now that they were defeated, everyone was excited.Hearing that it was Luffy and his crew who did it, they immediately expressed their gratitude.They wanted to hold a celebration banquet for them."Banquet! Food! Waaah..."Hearing these two words, Luffy's eyes lit up, his saliva flowed freely, and without a word, he ran off like crazy."A banquet, then there must be alcohol..."Zoro also smiled. Having been hungry for over half a month, he was already extremely thirsty and hungry....Looking at the two who were running wildly, Gekko couldn't help but feel speechless.As long as Luffy saw food, he would definitely go crazy.As long as Zoro heard there was alcohol, he would immediately get excited."Lord Gekko, is what Mr. Luffy said true, that not everyone in the Marine is like Lieutenant Monka and his son?"Just then, Koby asked with a dejected expression.Clearly, after experiencing this, his longed-for Marine had turned out this way, and he was greatly shocked.Even his worldview began to twist!"Haha, your vision is too shallow. The Marinerepresents the face of the World Government. How big is the world? It's not something that LieutenantMonka and his son, and a branch stationed here, can represent.""There are as many people like Monka in the Marineas there are fish in the river, but he doesn't represent the Marine, let alone justice!""Of course, if that's what the justice in your heart is like."Gekko said with a faint smile.After speaking, he ignored the dumbfounded Kobyand walked towards the town.At this time, the town was decorated with lanterns and streamers everywhere. All the villagers were beaming with joy and expressed the warmest welcome to Luffy and the others.Rika invited Luffy to drink heartily at her family's restaurant.Seeing food, Luffy had already forgotten his name. Seeing alcohol, Zoro was also extremely excited.The two ate and drank heartily, looking completely unreserved.In contrast, Gekko seemed normal, eating his own fried rice on his own.The banquet lasted for over an hour. The few of them were full and satisfied."Alright, thank you everyone for your hospitality. Gekko, Zoro, let's go."After eating his fill, Luffy patted his round belly with satisfaction and said to the two."Okay."The two nodded.And were about to leave.Just then, the Marine suddenly walked in from outside. The person leading them was the Lieutenant.Seeing the few of them, he immediately shouted."According to a report, pirates have come to town. It's you, isn't it?""Out of humanity, we warn you to leave immediately, otherwise don't blame us for arresting you!""Is it the Marine?!""Hmph!""Damn Marine!"Hearing this, the people around all snorted coldly!It was the pirates who saved them from their predicament, not the Marine. They were clear about who was kind and who was not!"Alright, let's go!"However, Luffy clapped his hands, as if nothing had happened, completely unconcerned.He left directly.Gekko smiled faintly and followed behind. The three of them left one after another, leaving only Koby.Koby hid in the corner, biting his teeth, refusing to show himself.If he wanted to become a Marine, he had to draw a clear line between himself and pirates.Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to pass the background check."I'm sorry, Mr. Luffy, Lord Gekko, you saved me, but I can't thank you in person. I'm really too useless!""But Lord Gekko is right, my perspective is too narrow. Becoming a Marine has always been my dream. How can a mere Lieutenant Monkarepresent the world? I must stick to my dream!""Let me remember this kindness forever in my heart."Koby gritted his teeth and said to himself fiercely.Then he suddenly stood out and faced the Lieutenant!"I want to join the Marine and become a Marinesoldier. Please allow me!"Koby shouted loudly.His expression was firm!"Hmm? He seemed to be with those pirates, didn't he!""Pirates and the Marine are natural enemies. How can someone who has been a pirate become a Marine!""It's impossible for you to join!"Seeing Koby, the surrounding Marine soldiers all said.When they were on the training ground, they saw everything from above."I... I..."Hearing this, Koby couldn't help but tremble, only feeling that his future was completely dark.Was he going to be shut out like this?"Was he with the pirates? I didn't see him, did any of you see him?"However, just then, the Lieutenant turned around and looked at the people around him."I didn't see him!""I didn't see him either!""None of us saw him!"As soon as these words came out, not only the people around, but also the surrounding Marinesoldiers spoke up one after another."You... everyone!"Hearing this, Koby, who had already despaired, suddenly saw the sunlight again. He was extremely smart and immediately understood the Lieutenant's meaning. He couldn't help but look at the Lieutenant gratefully, tears welling up in his eyes."Becoming a Marine is not an easy thing. Although I approve of your enlistment, whether you can pass the assessment is still uncertain!"The Captain said sternly."Yes, I will definitely work hard. No matter what kind of test it is, I will swear to defend it with my life. I must become a Marine!"Koby said resolutely, word by word, his gaze extremely firm...."Hey, hey, hey, Captain, is this our ship?"At the same time, Luffy and the other two arrived at the seaside and saw the small wooden boat that could only accommodate three people. Zorocollapsed!What kind of place is the Grand Line? Can you go there with this boat?Let alone the Grand Line, even in this East Blue, a single wave could capsize them."Yeah, so we need to get a boat right now and set sail!"Luffy said with a bright smile."What about the crew? Are there only the three of us?"Zoro couldn't help but collapse, looking at Gekko, then at Luffy."We're still recruiting crew members, but we'll have them soon."Luffy said seriously."Hey, hey, hey, what's going on? Were you also tricked like this by this guy?"Zoro couldn't help but look at Gekko....Gekko waved his hand, indicating his helplessness."Alright, let's set off!"Luffy shouted, pulling the two onto the boat.Immediately, the three of them, on a boat that could break at any moment, wobbled towards the sea."Are you sure this boat can last until the next island?"Zoro asked Luffy while paddling."Forward, forward!"Luffy sat at the bow of the boat, playing dumb.Gekko sighed!"You're still too young to reason with Luffy!"
Chapter 8 Orange IslandIn the Pirate World, the things you absolutely cannot do are reason with Luffy and eat with him.As long as you hesitate even slightly, Luffy will eat all your food, leaving you with nothing to eat.Once Luffy decides on something, he will see it through to the end; nobody can stop him!Zoro couldn't help but feel helpless. The two of them paddled along, searching for the next island.Two hours passed like this."Gulp..."Luffy's stomach rumbled."Ah, I'm so hungry!"Luffy shouted along with his stomach."You just ate, didn't you? What is your stomach made of!"Zoro couldn't help but complain."He's a Rubber Man. His digestive system is naturally different from ordinary people. The more he eats, the faster he bounces back!"Gekko knew this, but he hadn't seen Luffy make a move yet."Screech..."Just then, an incredibly loud eagle cry suddenly rang out. Above the three of them, a large eagle was soaring with its wings spread."Ah, food, food!"Luffy's eyes immediately lit up. Ignoring everything else, he stretched out his arm and grabbed towards the eagle!"Watch me hunt for everyone!""Rubber... Pistol!"Luffy shouted. His arm instantly grabbed the eagle, and he was immediately pulled towards the sky!"His arm stretched out, that's... a Devil Fruit!"Zoro was shocked. Although he was a sword fanatic, he had heard of the legend of Devil Fruits."That's right, he must be a Rubber Man! He ate the Rubber Fruit!"Gekko nodded. Although he had known for a long time, seeing it firsthand was a different feeling.The Rubber Fruit plucked from the magical tree can turn a person's body into rubber, allowing them to stretch and contract as they please.Theoretically speaking, this fruit is the most wondrous!"So that's it. The man who can make an expert like you follow him is indeed not simple!"Zoro couldn't help but laugh, looking at Gekko with a fervent expression."Oh no, that idiot!"However, Gekko looked towards the sky. Luffy had successfully reached the eagle's back, but due to poor control, he fell onto the eagle's back and was instead carried away by the eagle."Damn it, chase after him!"Seeing this, Zoro was also startled. He quickly paddled desperately in the direction the eagle was flying!However, their paddling speed could not compare to the eagle's flying speed, and they quickly lost sight of it.They couldn't help but curse, but they could only paddle forward."Help, help!""Is anyone there? I don't want to die!""Ah, I'm about to drown!"The two of them paddled along, the small boat slicing through the water like an arrow. However, they hadn't gone far when a series of calls for help rang out.Zoro followed the sound and could vaguely see three drowning people."Someone is calling for help, could it be Luffy fell?"Zoro's heart stirred, and he quickly swam over, but they were three fierce-looking strangers!"Quickly save us, we're going to drown!""If you save us, all the Berries on us are yours!""Help, we'll give you anything you want!"Seeing the boat, the three of them quickly shouted.However, once on the boat, the three of them revealed their vicious nature!"Robbery! Hand over everything valuable, or die!""This sword is good, hand it over!""Hurry up, or we Buggy Pirates will kill you!"The three of them roared menacingly."Bang bang bang!"After a session of "education" from Zoro, the three immediately knelt down and begged for mercy!"Ah ah ah, sir, I was wrong, spare my life!""You're Pirate Hunter Zoro, aren't you? We didn't expect to provoke you. We were blind!""Sir, spare my life!""You said you are Buggy Pirates, so is there an island nearby?"Gekko said indifferently."Yes, there's Orange Island nearby. We Buggy Pirates are stationed on the island. We are all members of the Buggy Pirates. Because we touched Captain Buggy's reverse scale, Captain Buggy sent us flying into the Sea!"The three did not dare to delay and quickly spoke."An island? Devil Fruits are the power of demons cursed by the Sea. If that's the case, Luffy will definitely find a way to fall onto a nearby island!"Gekko looked at Zoro!"Good idea. Paddle, take us to the island."Zoro nodded, holding his long sword horizontally!"Yes yes yes."How could the three dare to resist? They quickly paddled desperately towards the nearby Orange Island.Although the boat was small and immediately became crowded with five people, fortunately, the Sea surface was calm with no waves. Coupled with the three of them paddling desperately, they soon arrived at Orange Island.Then the two of them prepared to go ashore!However, just as they stepped onto the island, the roar of a cannonball suddenly ripped through the air and exploded in the sky!"Eagle!"At the same time, an extremely tragic eagle cry rang out. It was the eagle, hit by the cannonball!"Luffy!"Gekko and Zoro exchanged glances and ran towards the direction where the eagle was hit.At the same time, in the direction the eagle was falling, as it descended, a figure plummeted vertically from the sky, headfirst, smashing heavily onto the street in the center of town like a diving onion.At this moment, over a dozen members of the Buggy Pirates were chasing a nimble figure!"Damn it, stop right there! How dare you come to our Buggy Pirates and steal things? Do you want to die?""Damn thief, stop right there! Everyone hurry up, otherwise if Captain Buggy finds out, we're dead!""Bastard!"Dozens of angry shouts rang out as they surrounded the fleeing figure!"Hehe, now the treasure and the Grand Line map are all mine. If I sell them, I'll definitely make a fortune."Nami looked at the map in her hand and smiled with satisfaction.She was Nami, the famous thief of the East Blue!A thief who specialized in stealing from Pirates!As she ran, she searched for a route.However, just then, a figure fell from the sky, smashing onto the path in front of her and blocking her way!"Is that a person?"Nami immediately shrieked, startled.She stopped in her tracks!And at this moment, the Buggy Pirates had caught up and surrounded her!"Thief, now you have nowhere to escape!""Hand over our Captain's treasure, that way you might suffer a little less!""She's a cute girl!"Seeing Nami, they all sneered.However, just then, a figure fell from the sky and landed right in front of them!They were all startled!"Huh? Someone who fell from the sky?""Who is it? Is he dead?""He's definitely dead. Can a normal person survive falling from that high up?"They all said.They all thought Luffy was dead!"Ouch, that hurts!"However, Luffy suddenly pulled his head out of the ground and appeared before everyone, shouting.He is a Rubber Man. He won't die and won't feel pain.It's just that the height was too great, so it was inevitable he'd get a little hurt!"He's alive, he's alive!""Holy cow, he fell from that high up and isn't dead. Even if he's alive, he's definitely not a normal person. Who are you? Are you also here to steal our Captain's treasure?"
Chapter 9 Buggy Pirates"Oh no, it's possible he's in cahoots with this woman!""Kid, no matter who you are, if you dare to covet our Captain's treasure, you're dead meat. Surrender obediently!"Everyone looked at Luffy and shouted."Huh?"Luffy was dumbfounded, completely unaware of the situation!He had fallen from the sky, was a bit concussed, and before he could recover, he was being pointed at with knives and hearing inexplicable things, looking utterly bewildered."Oh my, Boss, you're finally here. Did you hide everything well?"However, at this moment, Nami's eyes lit up, and she spoke to Luffy in a familiar manner."Boss? Who are you?"Luffy couldn't help but ask, becoming even more confused.However, hearing this, the surrounding pirates were all enraged!"Indeed, these two are together! Go! Catch them!""Damn it, how dare you steal the treasure of our Buggy Pirates! You must be tired of living!""Catch them and hand them over to Captain Buggyto deal with!"They shouted angrily and pounced towards the two!At this moment, Nami had already taken advantage of everyone's inattention to duck to the side and turn to escape."Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong with you guys? Stop it! Otherwise, I won't be polite!"Luffy couldn't help but shout.However, at this time, no one paid attention to him, and they all pounced forward!"Damn it, what is going on?!"Luffy was speechless. Facing the fierce and malicious crowd who wanted his life, he roared!"Gum-Gum... Whip!"Immediately, his leg stretched out very long, forming a long whip that swept across the crowd!The force of the rubber burst forth, and the surrounding pirates were all knocked to the ground!"I didn't expect you to be so strong!"Just then, Nami, who had left but returned, saw this scene and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.After she left, she felt a bit uneasy and quickly rushed back.But she thought that since Luffy was fine after falling from such a high place, he should be able to handle a few small-time pirates. Yet, she still came and saw the scene before her!"Who are you!"Luffy couldn't help but ask."I'm Nami."Nami introduced herself. Seeing Luffy, her eyes lit up, and a certain idea arose in her heart.If it could be achieved, her plan could be completed directly!"Nami, I'm hungry. Where can I find something to eat?"Luffy nodded and asked directly."Something to eat? Of course there is! And I know a place with lots of delicious food, but the condition is that you have to cooperate with me. As long as we succeed, you won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life!"Hearing this, Nami chuckled like a little fox."Alright, alright! Hurry and take me there!"Luffy's eyes immediately lit up, having already thrown everything else to the back of his mind."Okay, I need to tie you up first, and then we'll proceed according to the plan."Nami said to Luffy with a smile.Luffy nodded repeatedly. As long as there was food, anything was fine!..."Is this really a town? Why is it so desolate, and there isn't a single person? What exactly happened?"After Gekko and Zoro landed, they walked towards the town.However, the town was empty, with not a single person. There were dilapidated houses everywhere and ruins visible everywhere.Zoro couldn't help but ask."Before our Captain Buggy came, this was a prosperous town, but after he came, the town became like this!""Actually, you can't blame us. Our Captain Buggy is a very good person. It's the people of this town who didn't know what was good for them and insisted on opposing us, which is why they ended up like this!""That's right, that's right!"Three Buggy Pirates crew members quickly explained.They had also followed along."Oh? Speaking of which, you were the ones who provoked them first, weren't you!"Zoro sneered.He hated this kind of pirate the most."Ah!"The three immediately fell silent, not daring to speak anymore."Take me to find your Captain. If Luffy comes here and finds out about these things, he definitely won't spare you."Gekko said indifferently.In this Great Pirate Era, this was not uncommon.Human lives were like grass, and it was the survival of the fittest.Facing a pirate crew, what could these ordinary villagers do? If they didn't obey, there was only death!"Yes, yes."The three didn't dare to delay and quickly led the way."Damn it, it's the pirates of the Buggy Pirates!""Not only that, there are two other people with them. Damn it, the pirate's strength has increased again!""No matter what, we must resist! Even if we die, we absolutely cannot let them destroy our village!"Just as the group of five left, on a hillside enclosed by a simple fence, several villagers looked at all this through binoculars and shouted angrily.They were the villagers of the town who had been driven out to this place.Watching their village being constantly destroyed and the pirates cruelly slaughtering, they decided to resist!"The Village Chief is already scouting ahead for information. Everyone, wait for the Village Chief's signal, and we'll attack together!"They all said...."Captain! This is bad, this is bad!""The treasure was stolen by that thief! We went to pursue, but we met a master and were all defeated!""Captain!"At this time, on a huge ship belonging to the Buggy Pirates, many pirates were drinking and eating meat when suddenly a few pirates who had been chasing the thief came back scrambling, shouting from afar towards where the Captain was."What did you say? My treasure was stolen by a thief? And you haven't caught them yet?"In a luxurious room, a cold voice suddenly came out!"Captain, listen to us! That person is not an ordinary person, he, he..."Hearing this voice, the few people were instantly terrified, trembling all over, and quickly spoke, trying to explain."No need to explain. I don't need trash on my ship. Since you lost track, then prepare to die."However, this voice was too lazy to listen to their nonsense, and with a cold shout, a hand, broken into three sections, flew out and lifted the three people high up, about to kill them!"Captain Buggy?"Just then, a voice sounded. It was Nami, who had tied up Luffy and arrived."Captain, it's her! She stole our treasure!""Damn thief, how dare you walk into a trap!""Kill her, kill her!"Seeing Nami appear, the pirates who had been chasing her immediately spoke up."Oh? So you're the one who stole my treasure?"Seeing this, Clown Buggy released his hand and walked out of the room, looking at Nami!"Is he the famous pirate, Clown Buggy?"Seeing Buggy's true form, Nami was slightly surprised in her heart, but she still smiled on her face."Lord Buggy, you've misunderstood. I came to join you. This person is my boss. He was the one who told me to steal your things, but now I've seen the light!"Nami said with a smile while handing over the treasure and sea chart she had obtained.
Chapter 10 Inviting NamiThe Buggy Pirates weren't some insignificant small pirate crew, so she wanted to pull off something big and get rich in one go!"Oh?"Looking at the sea chart and treasure that had been lost and recovered, Buggy's expression was unpredictable, and no one knew what he was thinking.Even Nami couldn't help but feel a little uneasy for a moment."You stole my treasure and sea chart, and then came back to return them to me, thinking I'd forgive you?""Brothers, what do you think I should do?"Buggy chuckled, his painted face becoming increasingly sinister.Saying this, he paused for effect."Hahaha, of course, kill her!""That's right, kill her, this damned thief!""Dare to steal from Lord Buggy, damn it, damn it!"Hearing this, everyone burst into wild laughter."..."Hearing these words, Nami's face changed drastically, and cold sweat dripped down her face.Just as she felt things were going badly and her hand was on the staff at her waist, Buggy suddenly burst into laughter."Of course I'll accept you! It's rare for you to turn over a new leaf, hahaha, isn't it magnificent, my subordinates!"Buggy laughed wildly."Hahaha, as expected of Captain Buggy, it's too magnificent!""That's right, that's right, there's nothing more magnificent in the world!""Long live Captain Buggy, Captain Buggy is mighty!"Everyone cheered."Let's welcome our new comrade Nami, my subordinates, let's party!"Buggy laughed loudly."Phew..."Seeing this, Nami secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the hand gripping her waist loosened.No matter what, she had finally bluffed her way through!"Hey, where's the food?"Luffy asked Nami with a blank look.At this moment, he clearly had no awareness of being a prisoner, but was still looking for food."..."Nami was speechless, while the Buggy Pirates' crew locked Luffy in a cage and then started partying!..."Over there?"At this time, Gekko and Zoro were walking through the town with the three people leading the way, when suddenly a burst of cheering came from afar.Zoro, sharp-eyed, pointed into the distance and asked."That's right, that's where our Buggy Pirates are located, Captain Buggy must be partying again!""Our Buggy Pirates party every day, to be honest, Captain Buggy is pretty good to us!""Yes, yes!"The three nodded repeatedly."In that case, lead the way!"Zoro shouted.The three dared not be negligent; in front of the famous pirate hunter, they were just little brothers.On the other side of town.Several villagers led the way, bringing everyone down from the mountain.They were all armed, with determined expressions, resolved to fight the Buggy Pirates to the death!At this moment, hearing the cheering sound, everyone's face turned ugly."Bastard pirates, wasting our food again!""Damn it, these bandits!""Perfect, wait until they get drunk and beat them to death!"They all shouted.At this moment, on the Buggy Pirates' ship, everyone was partying together, and finally, Buggytested a Buggy Bullet in front of Nami.Seeing the town blown away by a single shot, Nami's face turned ugly.She actually felt a sense of unease in her heart, realizing she had underestimated these people."How is it, Nami? The power of my special Buggy Bullet is quite something, right!"Buggy looked at Nami and said with a smile."It's quite powerful, the town was blown away!"Nami forced a smile."Is that so? As long as you're satisfied. At the end of this banquet, let's have a magnificent finale."Buggy laughed loudly.He ordered his men to bring Luffy up, then aimed the Buggy Bullet, and pointed!"Me?"Nami's expression changed."That's right, Nami. This trash is your Captain, but he can't give you what you want. Shouldn't he be killed?""Kill him, and you'll be one of us. You'll officially join us, right, Thief Cat Nami!"Buggy chuckled, a glint flashing in his eyes.Although he seemed frivolous, he was incredibly shrewd. How could he be so easily deceived?"..."Nami's face changed drastically.She hadn't expected the other party to be so shrewd and that they had already investigated her background!"When!"Nami's heart sank, knowing that she had ultimately underestimated this group of pirates!"Nami, Nami!""Thief Cat, Thief Cat!""Kill him, kill him!"At this moment, as soon as Buggy said this, everyone cheered.Several people came forward and pushed Nami in front of the cannon.The Buggy Bullet was already loaded; all she had to do was light the fuse to fire!"Come on, Thief Cat. Kill him, and you'll be one of us."A pirate said with a sinister smile, handing over a torch.The crowd cheered again.They all cheered for Nami to kill Luffy!"Damn it! This..."Nami hesitated.She was just a thief, she had never killed anyone, and she only stole from pirates.Since it was ill-gotten gains anyway, she felt no guilt stealing it.But to kill Luffy, she was extremely hesitant in her heart, instinctively rejecting the idea!"Boom!"Just then, a deafening roar echoed, accompanied by a ten-meter-long crescent-shaped sword slash that cut across fiercely.The sword energy streaked across the sky, incredibly sharp, cutting everything in its path to pieces!Even the pirate ship was sliced apart!The sword energy swept across, slicing fiercely at Luffy's cage!"Crack!"The cage was instantly shattered into pieces, and Luffy immediately broke free!"Who is it!""Enemy attack, enemy attack!""Damn it, who dares to damage our pirate ship!"Seeing this huge commotion, the surrounding pirates roared angrily one after another."Hmm?"Buggy's face turned cold as he looked at the two people who had suddenly appeared."Gekko, Zoro, you're finally here!"Luffy looked at the two and cheered."I'll leave this here to you guys, I'm really hungry, I'm going to eat!"After saying this, he ran towards the food that hadn't been cleared away yet and started gobbling it up as if no one else was there."Now isn't the time to eat, is it!"Seeing this, Zoro was speechless."Who are you? How dare you come here and cause trouble!"Buggy looked at the two, his face turning grim."Captain of the Buggy Pirates, Clown Buggy, you dare to kidnap our Captain, that's just asking for death!""However, my purpose for coming here is naturally the Grand Line's sea chart!"Gekko said calmly, looking at Buggy."You want my sea chart?"Hearing this, Buggy's face turned cold."How do you know about the sea chart?"Nami was startled.The Grand Line's sea chart was something she found on Alvida's ship and which Buggy had stolen.This was an extremely secretive matter, how could a second person know about it?"How I know, you don't need to know.You're a navigator, right?I noticed you when you were on Alvida's pirate ship.I didn't expect to see you here again.How about it?Join us and become our navigator."Looking at Nami, Gekko smiled and extended an invitation."Become your navigator?"Nami was stunned, clearly not expecting to be directly invited.
Chapter 11: The Domineering Aura Shows Its Power"Not bad, we are going to the Grand Line and we need a navigator."Gekko nodded and chatted with Nami as if no one else was around."Hey, hey, hey, kid, although you are very strong, isn't this a bit too arrogant? Our Buggy Pirates are not simple characters!""Bastard, is this ignoring us?""Damn it, kid, you are too presumptuous!"Seeing this scene, the pirates all around were furious!This was simply not putting them in their eyes!"You want my nautical chart, hehe, it depends on whether you have the ability!"Buggy also sneered, taking out a sea chart and looking at Gekko."Captain, why do you need to deal with such characters, let us resolve them!""This swordsman does have some strength, and there is even the legendary Pirate Hunter Zoro, but they are still far from being able to deal with us, you know there are five hundred of us!""If the five hundred of us attack you together, one slash each would kill you!"The pirates all shouted, raising their large swords, full of momentum, and surrounded the three of Gekko.And Luffy, who was concentrating on eating, seemed to have been forgotten!"Do you want to win by numbers?"Seeing this, Zoro sneered, his three swords at his waist unsheathed, and the Three-Sword Stylebattle stance appeared!"Don't attack, Zoro!"Gekko waved his hand to stop Zoro. It was perfect, there was an ability he had always wanted to try, but unfortunately, with his current level, he couldn't control it well. Now was the best time!"You'd better stay far away, otherwise you will be affected!"Gekko looked at Nami and smiled."Okay."Nami nodded. Although she was surprised by Gekko's invitation, it was only surprise. Hearing this, she immediately ran far away, and in a moment, she was gone!Gekko smiled faintly and walked towards the Buggy Pirates!"Hmm? What is he going to do? Is he really preparing to deal with 500 people alone?"Zoro watched Gekko's movements. Although he was confused, he did not attack at this moment."Kid, do you mean you are going to deal with 500 of us by yourself?""You're courting death, no matter how powerful you are, no matter how skilled your swordsmanship is, if the 500 of us attack together, you will die without a burial place!""He's too arrogant, even if he's courting death, I've never seen anyone like you. Brothers, go, let this kid experience our power!""Kill him!"Seeing Gekko walk over as if no one else was around, the surrounding pirates roared in anger and charged towards Gekko."Hmm?"Buggy's eyelids twitched, and a bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart.For some reason, he felt a power on Gekko that made him wary!He had, after all, been on the Pirate King's ship and seen the world."Haoshoku!"At this moment, facing the 500 charging pirates, Gekko smiled faintly.Haoshoku was unleashed!"Pop…"An invisible aura burst out, centered on Gekko, affecting everything within a thousand meters!You could see the charging pirates, before they even got close, suddenly seemed to be hit by a paralysis spell, their bodies frozen in place, unable to move, and then one by one they fell to the ground, unconscious, paralyzed, dazed, twitching!In the blink of an eye, all 500 pirates fell to the ground, losing their fighting power!"What is this!"Zoro also felt this aura, but his will was firm, and he endured it, but looking at the people who suddenly fell down,He couldn't help but be shocked!"Hmm!"Luffy was also startled, stopped eating, and looked at the scene around him with a look of surprise!"Haoshoku!"Buggy said, word by word, staring intently at Gekko.He was well-informed and naturally knew what this was.He just didn't expect to see someone unleash such power in a place like the East Blue!This is a power that only those chosen by fate possess!"What is Haoshoku?"Luffy asked in confusion.Not only him, but Zoro was also equally confused.This power that could instantly defeat 500 people was too terrifying!However, Buggy completely ignored them, but looked at Gekko, muttering!"I really didn't expect that in the weakest East Blueamong the Four Seas, someone would possess this power, and even be able to unleash it, it's incredible!""Hand over the sea chart and get out of this village, Buggy!"Gekko said calmly, raising the kusanagi sword, and activating Haki Infusion!The kusanagi sword's blade immediately turned black!Emitting an inexplicable power!"Haki Infusion? If that's the case, then it's troublesome!"Seeing this, Buggy's face instantly turned ugly.The power of Devil Fruit users lies in this powerful devil power, which far exceeds human imagination, especially for a Four-Split Fruit user like him.Ordinary power has no effect on him at all.But if Haki is attached, even Logia users will be injured!Even so, who was Buggy?A former crew member of Roger, a Four-Split Fruituser, and the Captain of a pirate crew.A person who swore to obtain the great treasure One Piece!If he was afraid when he encountered a strong person, then why be a pirate!Seeing this, Buggy roared!"You want my sea chart? Dream on! Although you are very strong, don't even think about looking down on your Grandpa Buggy!""Kabaji, Mochi!""Here!"As soon as Buggy finished speaking, two figures immediately descended from the sky, a man covered in white fur riding a lion and a person riding a bicycle holding a large sword!The two were the cadres of the Buggy Pirates!Unlike the other crew members, they were elites!Experts who could hold off a hundred!"It seems we've met a tough opponent, but with us here, everything is not a problem!""You've declared war on our Buggy Pirates? Since that's the case, be prepared!"The two looked around, then looked at Gekko, and sneered."Kid, this is the true strength of my Buggy Pirates, now let me show you!"Buggy shouted, ordering the two."Go together!""Yes."The two did not hesitate, one controlling a lion, one riding a bicycle, wielding large swords, and slashing towards Gekko!Buggy was not idle either, his body split into countless pieces, each holding a dagger, and slashing towards Gekko!The three attacked together, surrounding Gekko!"They are actually attacking together, ganging up on us, are they bullying us because we don't have anyone?"At this moment, Zoro drew his sword and blocked the swordsman coming towards him."Your opponent is me!"Luffy also appeared in front of Buggy, rubbing his fists.He had eaten his fill and was full of energy, ready for a big fight!"Hey, hey, hey, I was just about to take care of them all together, you guys are stealing kills!"Seeing this, Gekko couldn't help but complain.He didn't even put characters like Mochi and Kabajiin his eyes!
Chapter 12 vs Buggy PiratesThe only difficult thing is Buggy's Chop-Chop ability!With his current Haki, he can't kill him instantly!"Solve us together, kid, you really underestimate people, we are cadres of the Buggy Pirates, different from those ants!"Seeing that Gekko didn't even look at him, Mochiimmediately said angrily.He raised his long whip and whipped Laki fiercely.Laki cried out in pain, baring his fangs, and pounced towards Gekko!"Forget it."Seeing this, Gekko couldn't help but sigh, slashed out with his sword, and sheathed it!"Snap! Snap! Snap!"Immediately, a crescent moon-like sword energy was seen, splitting into three sections, and slashing out fiercely!After Gekko sheathed his sword, Laki and Mochi, who had charged over, had already been sent flying by a single slash!Blood splattered everywhere, and they fainted directly!Killed with one slash, they were no match for Gekko at all!"Mochi, Laki!""Damn it!"Seeing this scene, Kabaji and Buggy couldn't help but roar in anger, but facing Zoro and Luffy, they couldn't be careless and couldn't get away!"Killed them with one slash? As expected of you, leave this guy to me, I happen to need to hone my swordsmanship!"Seeing this, Zoro was secretly surprised by Gekko's strength, then looked at Kabaji who was hacking over, his expression becoming serious.This is different from the small fry he killed before!"This guy is a Devil Fruit user, let me handle him!"Luffy also faced Buggy.Although Buggy's Chop-Chop ability was a headache, Luffy had his own way!Only Devil Fruit users can deal with Devil Fruit users!Others were helpless against him, but he had a way!"Alright, I'll leave them to you, I'll handle the rest."Hearing this, Gekko shrugged, jumped off the ship, and looked at the large group of villagers who had already rushed over.They first met up with the Village Chief who was scouting for information, then felt the commotion and rushed over!"The famous Buggy Pirates, were they just defeated like this?"At this moment, Nami, who had taken all the treasures of the Buggy Pirates, walked out dragging a large bag, her face full of joy, but then she saw the astonishing scene before her and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.The Buggy Pirates were not small fries, they were quite famous in the East Blue.She didn't expect them to be taken down just like that!"They are!"Then her gaze was attracted by the rushing villagers, and she couldn't help but ask in confusion."Stop!"Just as the group rushed towards the ship, the Village Chief suddenly stopped, stopping everyone, and he also looked at the scene on the ship with a stunned expression, becoming surprised!"What happened? Are they fighting among themselves?""No, it's not an internal conflict, these three, they shouldn't be from the Buggy Pirates!""My heavens, look, that animal tamer Mochi has been defeated, and his beast is also dead, that cadre Kabaji is also suppressed, and that Captain, who is the young man fighting him, is he also a Devil Fruit user? He can actually stretch his arms, how amazing!""What happened?"Not only the Village Chief, but all the villagers were surprised.They came with the determination to die, but they didn't expect to see such a scene!"Everyone stay where you are, don't take a single step forward, don't disturb them."Facing all the rushing villagers, Gekko slashed out with his sword!Instantly, a crack several feet deep was cut, lying between Gekko and everyone else!Gekko said calmly, his words concise!He was too lazy to explain to them, and would leave after finishing things.He still had to go to the Grand Line, how could he waste time in such a place!"This is... unbelievable!""He split the ground with one sword?""So strong!"Seeing the huge crack on the ground before them, all the villagers were stunned, they had never seen such power before!Compared to the man before them, the Buggy Pirates were weak!"Who are you? What is your purpose? What are they doing?"Seeing this, the Village Chief took a deep breath, although scared, he still looked at Gekko and asked solemnly."Our target is the Buggy Pirates, it has nothing to do with you, so if you don't want trouble, just stay here obediently."Gekko said calmly."Village Chief, it seems he's right, look, the people from the Buggy Pirates have all been dealt with!""That's right, the other two seem to be his companions, and they are dueling with the Pirates!""He is so strong, there's no need for him to lie to us, at least for now, we don't need to conflict with him!"Hearing this, the Village Chief was still hesitant, guessing whether Gekko's words were true or false, while the surrounding villagers said one after another."Is that so? We will stay here and not move, but if you want to destroy this town, we will fight with our lives and not let you have your way!"The Village Chief nodded, looked at Gekko, and said through clenched teeth.Gekko nodded and looked at the scene.At this time, the battle was coming to an end, Zorowas initially caught off guard by Kabaji's dazzling acrobatics and suffered many injuries, but finally unleashed Oni Giri and cut down Kabaji with one slash!Luffy's side was also over, although he was constantly injured, in a one-on-one fight, Luffy was completely at a disadvantage, even with his rubber body, he couldn't withstand Buggy's sword slashes.Finally, Nami discovered Buggy's weakness that his feet couldn't leave the ground, and immediately lent Luffy a hand, and Buggy was also sent flying by Luffy's palm!Finally, they achieved a great victory!And the Buggy Pirates were completely wiped out!"Victory!"Luffy breathed a sigh of relief, looking at his hat that had been cut by a sword, feeling a bit down.This hat was very important to him, and he had made a promise to someone, he didn't expect it to be damaged like this."Thank you for saving me, I can help you repair your hat."Seeing this, Nami said."Really? Then thank you very much, but Gekko already invited you just now, I'll invite you again, join us and be our navigator!"Luffy looked at Nami and invited her again."Joining you is impossible, my goal isn't the Grand Line, I prefer treasure, but we can cooperate, you must want to go to many places, right, I'll guide you while collecting treasure!"Nami said with a smile.After experiencing a near-death situation, they could be considered companions in adversity!"Cooperation? Okay."Hearing this, Luffy nodded, then pointed at Zorowho was already asleep on the ground, and said."Gekko, let's go, head towards the Grand Line!""Captain, to go to the Grand Line, we need at least our own ship, and this guy, he's really carefree, just sleeping like that?"Hearing this, Gekko couldn't help but look at Zoro on the ground with a helpless expression!To be able to sleep in a place like this, and to live until today, is truly a miracle!"Mm, don't worry, we'll definitely have a ship."Luffy nodded, with a mysterious look of confidence!
Chapter 13 Observation HakiGekko was speechless.Not only him, but Nami was also speechless.Then he pointed at the Buggy Pirates' ship and said,"Before we have our own ship, we'll use this one.""Oh, oh, oh, that's a great idea!"Hearing this, Luffy clapped his hands and agreed enthusiastically."I just checked, and there aren't many supplies left on the ship. We need to resupply quickly, otherwise, with your appetite, we won't last a day."Gekko sighed, went onto the ship, looked around inside, and said,"It's obviously impossible on this island, so let's set sail now."Nami nodded, glanced at the villagers full of hostility on the other side of the great earth fissure, and the village that was bombarded into ruins by Buggy Bullets, full of scars, and sighed."Okay."Luffy nodded, having no objections.Gekko carried Zoro, weighed anchor, and set sail immediately!"Hey, wait for me!"Seeing this, Luffy couldn't help but stretch out his arm, grabbed the side of the ship, and flew up.Nami chuckled, revealing a bright smile, and the group left Orange Island just like that!"They left? These people?""It looks like they aren't bad people!""They stole the Buggy Pirates' ship, are they also pirates?""On this sea, if you're not a Marine, you can only be a Pirate!"Watching the four people leave in the distance, all the villagers of Orange Island were stunned, whispering and discussing amongst themselves."Whether they are pirates or something else, for this village, for us, they are heroes. If it weren't for them, we would still be attacked by that group of pirates, and it would be very difficult for us to take back the village. Regardless, we must thank them!"The Village Chief murmured."That's right, exactly. No matter what, they are our benefactors!""Did they just leave like that? We haven't even thanked them yet!""Quick, call out to them! No matter what, we have to show our gratitude!"Hearing the Village Chief's words, everyone finally reacted.Looking at the four people getting further and further away, they all started shouting!"Hey! Thank you, truly thank you!""Benefactors, let us thank you!""Benefactors... your great kindness, we are eternally grateful!""..."Immediately, waves of voices came from the island."Hmm? What are they saying?"Luffy sat at the bow, looking at Orange Island with a puzzled expression."Who knows, probably thanking us."Nami shrugged, looked at the current and the clouds in the sky, and let out a long sigh of relief!"Alright, the current and the clouds now indicate that the course is very safe, we can relax!""Oh, I say Gekko, what are you doing?"Luffy nodded and looked at Gekko.After Nami said it was okay, Gekko suddenly came in front of Luffy, and Luffy asked in confusion."Attack me, help me train!"Gekko said calmly.He wanted to train Observation Haki!They had already set sail, so the enemies they would encounter next would be stronger and stronger. His swordsmanship was enough to dominate the East Blue, but if he encountered someone with a Devil Fruit ability again, it would be easy to defeat them, but it would be somewhat difficult to cause damage.So he had to strengthen his training!Observation Haki is an ability that improves through constant dodging!With the system, he could train on his own, but it wasn't as suitable as training in combat with someone."Help you train?"Hearing this, Luffy's eyes lit up."That's right, just attack, the more dense the better, I'll just dodge."Gekko nodded, then closed his eyes."Aren't you going to fight him with your eyes open?"Seeing this, Nami asked in confusion."No need, if I fight with my eyes open, what kind of training would that be?"Gekko smiled and beckoned to Luffy."Come on, the more dense the attack, the better!""Okay, interesting, since that's the case, Gekko, take this!"Hearing this, Luffy laughed, rubbed his palms, and attacked Gekko!"Gum-Gum... Pistol!""Bang!"A powerful fist shot out, extremely fast!"Swish!"However, Gekko's body flashed and he easily dodged it!Although his eyes were closed, under the level 1 Observation Haki, he could sense the surrounding auras.Just as he dodged, the system's voice sounded!"Ding! You used Observation Haki once, gaining 1 * 100 experience points!""Ding! Observation Haki 100 / 10000!""Indeed, this is useful, and it allows me to adapt to combat the fastest!"Gekko's heart stirred."So strong, since that's the case, Gekko, I won't hold back!"Seeing this, Luffy was surprised, then said with great joy."Okay, don't hold back, just come!"Gekko nodded and assumed a defensive stance."Gum-Gum... Gatling!"Luffy immediately shouted, his fists unleashed, swinging violently, erupting in a storm of attacks!Immediately, dozens of fists appeared simultaneously, attacking Gekko!Like a storm, they rained down!"Good!"Feeling the attack, Gekko nodded, activated Observation Haki, and began to dodge!"Ding! You used Observation Haki, gaining 1 * 100 experience points!""Ding! You used Observation Haki, gaining 1 * 100 experience points!""...""Ding! Observation Haki level increased!""Observation Haki lv2 1 / 100000!"Using it once gives 100 experience points. Luffy's attack was like a storm. After a hundred punches, Gekko's Observation Haki leveled up!It leveled up to lv2!At lv1, Luffy could still hit him a few times, but after lv2, the surrounding auras, movements, and fist wind could be sensed easily, and dodging became even more effortless.Luffy couldn't hit him at all!"So strong, what kind of monster is this guy? Luffy's attack is like a storm, incredibly dense, yet he's dodging casually with his eyes closed, especially now, Luffy can't hit him at all, he's completely at ease!"Seeing this scene, Nami was shocked!"Hmm? What's going on?"At this moment, Zoro woke up and sat up from the ground.It wasn't a natural awakening, but Luffy's Gum-Gum Gatling accidentally hit him, and he was immediately woken up!"This is! What!"Then Zoro saw the scene of Luffy and Gekko fighting!At first, he was surprised, thinking the two were fighting, but after seeing the specific situation clearly, he realized it wasn't what he had imagined at all.Instead, Luffy was attacking, and Gekko was dodging, and he was even dodging with his eyes closed!However, what surprised him even more was that even like this, Luffy couldn't hit him at all!Gekko was dodging with ease, without any effort!On the contrary, Luffy had already started to pant!Lack of stamina!In the end, he stopped!"I'm out of energy, I'm so hungry!"Luffy stuck out his tongue, looking hungry!
