Pirates of the Navy Thunder God

Chapter 669: The Straw Hat Pirates in Action (13)

When countless people on the sea were extremely shocked by the strength of the navy, on an island on the edge of the Grand Line and the doldrums.

"Did you see clearly, Luffy?! These are the enemies you will face!"

Sabo had a short black cape with shoulder pads draped over his shoulders, which was somewhat similar to the hood that Drago always wore, but also looked different.

He is undoubtedly more calm and reserved now. He no longer has that silly smile on his face and does not have his usual exaggerated body movements.

From boy to man.

Boom!
Sabo said loudly, inserting the dagger into a wooden board. On the board were listed photos of every famous admiral in the navy, from Grand Admiral Akainu to Vice Admiral 16.

If taken out individually, each of the people above is so powerful that even though it is just a photo, it gives people a suffocating feeling of oppression.

“How can I possibly remember so many?”

"but……"

Luffy muttered, lowering the brim of his hat, "All we have to do is get stronger and beat them all away, right?"

The experience of G10 base and major events told Luffy what an unreasonable gap there is between the strong and the weak in this world!

That is an insurmountable chasm that can be bridged by “trying hard” or “working hard”!
It’s just like a math problem. If you push yourself too hard, you won’t be able to answer it.

If I want to continue to lead everyone forward, I must become stronger!

"..."

What you said... is not without reason.

After a moment of silence, Sabo sighed weakly: "Indeed... But I still don't recommend that you focus your main energy on the navy, Luffy."

"I don't want you to become the next Blackbeard and become a mere avenger... because that's exactly what Canglong wants!"

"He is deliberately spreading fear and hatred, distorting our perceptions, and letting us be led by him and perish in madness."

“So, keep your original intention in mind and don’t forget your dream, your dream!”

Hearing this, Zoro, Sanji, Nami, Chopper, Usopp, Robin and others behind Luffy fell silent.

Their dreams really shouldn't have too much to do with the navy.

but……

Ace is Luffy's brother after all!
How could Luffy let go of this hatred after witnessing his death right before his eyes?!
"I know that kind of thing without you having to tell me, Sabo!"

At this time, Luffy suppressed his voice and said: "So don't worry, I know what I should do..."

"When I become the Pirate King, Ace..."

"He will be very happy too, right?"

Although she was smiling, two lines of tears kept falling, wetting the soft yellow sand under her feet.

In response, Sabo stared with red eyes and nodded solemnly: "I definitely will!"

After that, she wiped away her tears and said to the others, "Your strength was already very good in the first half, but if you want to survive in the new world today and fight those monsters, you are undoubtedly far from enough!"

"I have found several suitable places for you to practice through the Revolutionary Army's internal intelligence network. This is the last thing you asked me to do before you leave, Xiong."

"first……"

"Nami!"

Sabo took out a map and said, "This is a small island country called Visalia Island. The scholars there are the best in the world in terms of meteorology!"

"If you want to lead everyone forward in the chaotic climate of the new world, learning their knowledge will be very helpful to you!"

In the original work, Kuma certainly didn't just slap the Straw Hat Pirates away randomly. His catchphrase is "If you want to travel, where do you want to go?" He can accurately control the point where he lands when he is slapped away.

There was nothing accidental about the Straw Hat Pirates' experience in the past two years. Everything was the result of Kuma's meticulous organization of information and careful selection.

Except Luffy...

After knocking Luffy away, Kuma told Rayleigh where Luffy was and asked Rayleigh to teach him. It was then that Rayleigh learned that Kuma, a government lackey, was actually a member of the Revolutionary Army.

Nami nodded and took the map firmly.

She didn't ask stupid questions like whether everyone would join her, because she knew that this was her own adventure.

"Usopp, this is the Boeing Islands..."

"Chopper, this is the Trino Kingdom..."

Sabo arranged them one by one, leaving Zoro, Sanji and Luffy at last.

"Kuma originally wanted you to learn swordsmanship from Mihawk. Given that man's personality, he would definitely find it interesting to train an opponent for himself, but now..."

"It doesn't matter!"

Zoro grinned and said, "I have decided to take a different path from everyone else and let my name resound through the heavens!"

"So just give me a ship... It's time to let the world know how terrible the East Sea Pirate Hunters are!"

Sabo was silent for a moment, then nodded. "I understand."

"Luffy, Sanji, you are the core combat force just like Zoro. The most I can do is teach you how to use Haki. I can't interfere too much in your next journey. Do you understand?"

After considering for a moment, Sabo held back and did not cruelly send Sanji to the Kamapaka Kingdom.

The name sounds normal, but that kingdom... is full of transsexuals!

Therefore, it is also called the "Kingdom of Transvestites" Kamapaka!
So Kuma's original plan was to "shoo them away", because if Sanji were allowed to choose for himself, he would definitely rather die than surrender!
"I see."

Luffy nodded solemnly.

Sabo can only point out the path for them to become stronger, but how to take that path is their own business and no one has any reason to interfere.

"I will stay and train. There are many dangerous beasts on this island. They are more than enough to be my opponents."

Compared to Zoro's way of going out to sea to find strong enemies to fight, Luffy is more suitable for the forest.

Because he grew up in the forest, all his skills come from nature.

Luffy knew this clearly, so he chose this island where wild beasts were rampant to train.

"I plan to go to the food capital first and see the most famous food destination in the Grand Line."

Sanji, who didn't know he had escaped, had a look of anticipation in his eyes, but then he frowned.

"But...if we disperse on the sea, we will be defeated one by one by the navy, right?"

He lit up a cigarette and asked, "After all, after the G10 incident, the threat level we pose to the Navy is much different than before."

"I have already made arrangements for this matter..."

Sabo smiled mysteriously and said, "Also, don't be afraid even if you are accidentally imprisoned in Impel Down. When a major incident occurs, we will be in contact with our companions in Impel Down."

"They secretly created a safe zone in Impel Down without telling the Navy. Although we still can't leave, there is no problem in protecting ourselves... Once the time is right, we will unite and work together to rescue the old leader!"

The "old leader" mentioned by Sabo is undoubtedly Monkey D. Dragon!
"That means, even if we are caught, we still have a chance to escape?"

Sanji raised his eyebrows when he heard that, and suddenly noticed Luffy who looked confused, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Hey, Luffy, that's your father, can you give me some reaction?!"

"Ah? Oh, I see!"

ヾ(°°)!

Sanji: "..."

Don't read to me, asshole!
"Having said that, I don't want you to have too much involvement with us if that's possible."

Sabo shook his head without further explanation, then took a deep breath and said, "So, please stay alive, everyone!"

"Each of us has a reason to live hard!"

Sabo's gaze lingered on Robin for a moment before he continued.

"The miracle of freedom will eventually bloom after the darkest dawn. I have no doubt about it!"

In response, the Straw Hat Pirates nodded silently, with firm eyes and raised their arms to cheer.

"Oh!!!"

A few hours later, Nami scratched her cheek as she watched Zoro sailing alone in a small boat towards unknown waters.

"It feels like we've forgotten something?"

"Forgot something?"

Usopp blinked, not understanding, and then ignored it, holding the map: "Don't worry about that now, Nami... Help me see, where should I start to go to the Boeing Islands?"

"Where is it? Wait a minute, let me check..."

Nami took the map subconsciously, then suddenly came to her senses and raised her head abruptly.

“Where???”

At the same time, the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates raised their heads in unison and turned to look at the swaying boat that was about to disappear on the sea level, their expressions instantly filled with horror.

"No, Zoro, come back soon!!"

Bang! ! !
As soon as the words fell, a sea monster opened its bloody mouth, causing tens of thousands of tons of white waves to form, and bit the small boat on the sea fiercely.

"That's not in the plan!"

Zoro fanged and roared, drawing his sword to block.

"Hoohoo!"

The sea beast, feeling the pain, shook its head violently, and lifted Zoro and the boat into the sky, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Straw Hat Pirates: “…”

Finished!

Hopeless!
