Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

"Yes, yes, don't run around, come shopping with me."

"Ah, why?"

"There's no reason why. As the captain, you have a responsibility to protect the safety of your crew!"

Nami gave a soft snort, grabbed Luffy's ear, leaned down, and whispered, "You can't refuse."

"What a troublesome thing."

"Do you think I'm a nuisance?" Nami's voice suddenly rose.

"No... I mean we're in trouble."

Luffy suddenly stood up, and Nami instinctively reached out and grabbed him around the waist.

Then I saw a familiar face on the bounty poster in Luffy's hand.

"Huh?!?!"

Chapter 32 Luffy, hit me!

Hearing this, everyone gathered around.

The bounty poster prominently features Luffy. It's unclear from which angle the photo was taken, but Arlong Park is visible in the background, and the poster shows Luffy in Gear Second.

However, isn't this bounty a bit outrageously high?

"Straw Hat Pirates Captain Monkey D. Luffy, bounty of 50 million Berries?!"

Looking at the long string of numbers below, Nami's eyes widened in disbelief.

She had the idea of ​​selling Luffy into her heart!

Wait, what was that final feeling? It was actually reluctance to part with it?

Why would I choose that guy over Luffy and money?!

"Not bad." Luffy, forced to stop training, grinned as he looked at the bounty poster.

"Isn't that a bit too much?" Zoro said.

It's worth noting that the highest bounty in the East Blue before was for Arlong, whom Luffy defeated.

The bounty is 20 million Berries.

"well enough."

Luffy felt that his battles might be too clean and efficient; since he started special training, he had basically been crushing everything in his path.

The most important reason is actually because of the three gears.

With combat power comparable to that of the giants, they are worthy of attention even on the Grand Line.

It's worth noting that even adult Titans can rise to the rank of Vice Admiral at Marine Headquarters.

Apart from Luffy, none of the others had bounties on their heads.

Nami and Usopp, the cowardly duo, both breathed a sigh of relief.

Becoming a wanted criminal is not something to be happy about.

"Tsk, that's a bit of a shame."

"Zoro said."

He definitely wants the bounty on his head.

Although the World Government does not base its bounties on pirates solely on their strength, the degree of their crimes and the threat they pose to the government are also taken into consideration.

Pirates with high bounties may not necessarily be strong.

But powerful pirates must have high bounties.

Of all the opponents Luffy defeated, Zoro was still there, except for Arlong, and yet none of them had a bounty on their heads. Zoro is the second-in-command of this ship, and most importantly...

"Oh? So you're just a third-rate swordsman like me, without a bounty on your head." Sanji's sarcasm came late but came early.

"You lecherous chef, do you want to fight?"

"Being an opponent of a third-rate swordsman is not bad either."

The two, whose horoscopes were incompatible, immediately started arguing.

"I have a suggestion."

Luffy interrupted them, his smile looking somewhat sinister.

After fighting all day last night, he can barely control his instincts when he sees Zoro and Sanji.

Since we finally have this opportunity...

"Sanji, Zoro, both of you, come at me together!"

Partners are meant to grow together!

Luffy has already prepared an excuse for himself.

The main problem was that training with Zoro was too boring and monotonous. It was either weightlifting or running. The only slightly interesting part was when Nami 'punished' him by sitting on him while he was doing push-ups.

This is already a rare reward for Luffy.

Because I can chat with Nami every now and then!

Otherwise, why are there so few strong individuals in this vast ocean? Everyone knows that cultivation can make one stronger, but because the time required to become stronger is too long, it's easy to be inconsistent in one's efforts.

"Hey, Luffy, you're too arrogant!"

Zoro and Sanji exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly.

"Since the captain has said so," Sanji said, his legs itching.

"I'm also very interested to see what kind of strength this great pirate with a bounty of fifty million is." Zoro's smile was also quite sinister.

Being convinced is one thing, but Luffy's cheeky personality means he doesn't want to let go of any opportunity to rightfully take him down!

This exchange was full of personal grudges.

Sanji has been knocked away by Luffy several times, and finally found a chance to get revenge.

Without prior arrangement, Zoro and Sanji found their spots.

Usopp and Nami, who were not far away, instinctively took a few steps back.

"What will our ship become in the future?" Usopp had no desire to get involved; he was simply worried about the future.

It feels like everyone on the ship has suddenly become a cultivation fanatic.

Although this should be the norm for pirates.

After all, without the corresponding strength, venturing into the open sea to face a dangerous situation will lead to death.

"Let them be, just don't damage the ship," Nami said helplessly, rubbing her forehead.

"Especially Luffy, you better watch out!"

"Okay," Luffy replied casually.

The battle erupted instantly.

"Three-Sword Style: Demon Slash!" Zoro charged forward like a tiger, his three swords slashing towards Luffy with a sharp whooshing sound.

Almost simultaneously, Sanji appeared like a ghost beside Luffy.

"Shourou Strike!"

A powerful, heavy slash aimed straight at Luffy's shoulder and neck, blocking his escape route.

The two weren't exactly in perfect sync, but their speed and power were already top-tier in the East China Sea.

However, hot steam suddenly rose from Luffy's body, and his skin turned bright red.

"Second gear!" My physical strength instantly increased by a level.

It looks so familiar!

Last night, Luffy got a good beating from nine people working together.

Zoro is one of them, and as a swordsman, he has the greatest destructive power.

Many times, Luffy would kick Arlong away, only to hear someone reciting poetry, and the next second Zoro's slash would be right in front of him.

Therefore, Luffy has a wide variety of ways to counter Zoro's attacks.

The most direct way is...

Armament Haki!

Luffy neither dodged nor evaded; his arms were instantly covered by a deep, dark layer.

clank!

A piercing clang of metal rang out!

The strike was blocked.

"What?!" Zoro's pupils shrank dramatically.

"Rubber... What a shock!"

Luffy grinned, his hands already outstretched, grabbing Zoro and Sanji's legs respectively, and then slapping them together.

The battle did not last long.

With the aid of Gear Second and their understanding of Zoro and Sanji's attack methods, they quickly lay on the deck, unable to get up for a while.

"Is the progress that fast?"

Zoro was alarmed.

In just a few days, Luffy has become a completely different person.

However, he could see how hard Luffy was working; the guy was training like his life depended on it.
