This has drawn the curiosity and observation of countless civilians and pirates alike.

.......

A new world, a great sea route.

On a bright and sunny day, a pirate ship flying the flag of the Beasts Pirates sailed on the azure sea.

The deck was a lively banquet scene, and Luffy grinned as he raised his glass high: "Hehehe, welcome to my crew!"

Usopp, Nami, Chopper, and the cowardly trio happily chimed in, "It's so great that you can join us, Jinbe!"

In the eyes of the three, Jinbe's joining meant that the ship finally had a steady and reliable member...

Only male!

Raising his cup to signify their brotherhood, Jinbe replied with a smile, "Thanks to the Straw Hat Boss's care, from today onwards I, Jinbe, the Knight of the Sea, officially join the Straw Hat crew. I look forward to your guidance in the future!"

The battle in the World of Warcraft ended with two of the Four Emperors falling into the sea.

After Luffy and his crew set sail, Jinbe, with permission, dived into the deep sea and pulled the unconscious Big Mom ashore.

He repaid Big Mom's previous care for Fishman Island by saving his life.

Before leaving, Jinbe returned the sworn brotherhood wine cup to the old woman.

Now, he has joined the Straw Hat crew with a clean record.

"Hehehe, cheers, everyone!"

Luffy shouted, and his crew drank the sake together!

With the addition of helmsman Jinbe, the Straw Hat Pirates now have a total of nine crew members.

Hey! You guys are all here to have a party!

While Luffy was taking big bites of the meat stick, he didn't forget to call out to the Heart Pirates on the side of the deck.

The entire Heart Pirates crew from the North Blue, led by Trafalgar Law, were also on this large ship.

As for the other league member, Kidd...

After everyone left the Whole Cake Island area on the last pirate ship, Kid stole another pirate ship on the high seas and left, shouting that he would challenge Shanks, one of the Four Emperors, on his own.

"You guys are really carefree!"

Looking at the Straw Hat crew enjoying themselves, Law said seriously, "Don't think that you can rest easy just because you've taken care of two Yonko. The journey ahead will be a thousand times more difficult than what we've encountered before!"

"Are you really sure, Straw Hat Boy?!"

Luo stepped forward and asked again, "Are you all really coming with me to Wano Country... to the future Empire's headquarters?!"

"How many times have I told you!" Luffy put down his penis and retorted, "The Sunny is still on that big black ship. We're going to reclaim our pirate ship, not to go with you guys!"

It was this absurd reason that led Luo to confirm it time and time again.

Just because of a pirate ship, they've come to the attention of the most terrifying force on the high seas. Are these guys out of their minds?

Sanji brought out another large cart of food from the kitchen: "Alright, that's just how Luffy is, we're all used to it."

Franky held up a can of cola: "This time, I'm on Luffy's side, and the Thousand Sunny is also an important partner to us!"

Since both sides are headed to Wano Country, the alliance between the two Supernovas continues.

Zoro put down his wine glass: "There's something I'm quite curious about: what's the reason you went to Wano Country?"

After spending a few days together, Zoro and his crew gained a clearer understanding of Law.

This is definitely a more reliable and level-headed pirate captain than Luffy.

Why would such a composed person approach the future empire?

And it doesn't look like they're seeking refuge...

Upon hearing this,

Luo narrowed his eyes, gripping the long sword tightly in his hand: "There's someone I must kill there!"

"No matter who his backer is, I will kill him with my own hands!"

Gazing towards the direction of Wano Country, a flash of murderous intent crossed Law's eyes!

Just wait...

Doflamingo!

Chapter 278 Global Upheaval, Broadcast Worldwide!

"Robin, aren't you going to try and talk some sense into Luffy?"

The cowardly trio, Nami looked at Robin beside her and whispered, "That's the future Empire, a powerful force that even the World Government wouldn't dare to provoke!"

Afraid that Luffy would hear, Usopp leaned over and covered his mouth, whispering, "Yeah, Robin, that's a notorious killer who murdered one of the Five Elders!"

"Just thinking about that scene gives me the creeps. Maybe we should go and try to persuade Luffy."

"Alright, Usopp!"

Sanji approached with two drinks in hand, frowning as he spoke: "You haven't forgotten, have you? As long as Luffy's dream remains unchanged, the future Empire will be a force we must face!"

After scolding Usopp, Sanji put on a fawning expression and thoughtfully placed two special beauty drinks in front of Robin and Nami.

"I haven't forgotten!"

Usopp couldn't help but retort, "But that emperor didn't even want to be the Pirate King. He just wanted to circumnavigate the Grand Line and find the final island..."

"If we avoid the Future Empire, Luffy can still become the Pirate King, right?! We don't necessarily have to face such a terrifying opponent!"

Robin picked up her drink and took a sip: "Usopp, there's no escaping it."

"To find the final island, Laugh Tale, you will need four more red Poneglyphs to guide you."

"While you were fighting the Four Emperors, I infiltrated the castle and discovered a red Poneglyph."

It was because of the rubbings that Robin was able to board the ship at the last minute.

Robin recalled, "Back then, I took down several guards there. Under my severe torture, they told me that there was another road sign in Wano Country."

"They said they were afraid the emperor would come after them because of that thing, so the Beasts Pirates didn't take it with them when they withdrew from Wano Country."

Upon hearing this, Usopp clutched his head in anguish, exclaiming, "How could this happen?!"

Nami sighed helplessly, "It seems that no matter what, we can't avoid the future empire."

"Don't worry, Miss Nami!"

Sanji declared confidently, "Even if it costs me my life, I will protect you! Of course, I will also protect Robin with my life!"

"Sanji—!"

With a knife in his left hand and a fork in his right, Luffy's outstretched body shot forward in an instant: "Food, food!"

"Was it a starving ghost reincarnated? It finished another whole cartload so quickly?!"

Sanji sighed and facepalmed, "Luffy, has your appetite increased by a tiny bit again?"

Chopper nodded his little head: "Yeah, the whole truck was emptied so quickly. Luffy's gluttony has increased a lot compared to before!"

Luffy patted his stomach, which was about six-tenths full, and laughed, "After transforming the day before yesterday, I feel like my appetite is better than before."

Nami put down her drink and asked, "By the way, what happened to your appearance?"

"When you defeated Kaido, you turned completely white-haired and became as big as a giant!"

Two days ago, Big Mom and Kaido's combined attack blasted Barrett into the deep sea.

Then Law and Kid teamed up to fight Big Mom, while Luffy fought Kaido one-on-one.

As for Zoro, Sanji, Nami, and the others, they are all fighting against the Yonko's executives.

Kaido's power has repeatedly put Luffy in danger, and the main island was almost sunk by the aftershocks of their battle.

At the last moment, Luffy transformed into a fighting stance that his crew had never seen before, and finally blasted Kaido into the sea.

Recalling the scene, Sanji asked, "That comical battle, what was with your transformation?"

Even the land at that time was transformed into a rubber-like state, and Kaido, who had transformed into a dragon, could be stretched and jumped like a rubber rope.

Everyone on the island was so shocked by Luffy's actions that their eyes bulged out.

After the battle, Luffy ate a big meal and slept for a whole day, without his crew having a chance to ask him anything.

Jinbe, holding a wine glass, walked over and said, "It must be the awakening of a Devil Fruit ability, turning the surrounding environment into rubber."

"but......"

"Luffy, you clearly have a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit power, even if you awaken your Devil Fruit ability..."

At this point, even the well-informed Jinbe had a hint of doubt: "Changes in one's own form should be a characteristic of Zoan-type Devil Fruit abilities."

Recalling that white, free-spirited form, Jinbe looked at Luffy and asked, "Did you really eat the Gum-Gum Fruit back then?"

Luffy nodded: "Shanks said it before, it's definitely the Gum-Gum Fruit."

"Fifth gear, that's my highest point!"

Luffy pressed down on his straw hat and clenched his fist: "I've learned how to use advanced Armament Haki and how to use Conqueror's Haki to entwine myself during the battle with Kaido!"

"So, it's time to go to Wano Country and get the Sunny back!"

"Don't be careless!"

With a serious expression, Law and his crew approached: "Wano Country is the future headquarters of the Empire, and there are countless powerful individuals there!"

"Former Marine Admirals Aokiji and Kizaru, Barrett who was rescued by the Sea Beast Weapon, the current Shogun of Wano Country, White Zetsu, and the one on the throne... the Emperor."

"When you get to Wano Country, Straw Hat Boy, you must follow the plan. Hide your identity, find your target, and then take action. Don't be as reckless as you were before!"

Luffy's reckless behavior on Whole Cake Island forced Law to repeatedly remind him of his actions!

Whether it was assassinating Dover or retrieving the Sunny, the plans were designed to avoid causing disturbance.

Otherwise, if they attract the attention of that emperor, they will perish at sea before they even succeed.

Just as Luo was about to continue his warning, a sudden change occurred!

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"
