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

This sudden commotion saved his life.

As he was watching, his Observation Haki suddenly gave a warning.

A flash of red light appeared in his eyes.

.......

not long ago,

GR No. 46.

"Hey, when did these guys surround us?!"

Black was initially a little scared as he watched the endless stream of marines emerge, but he soon realized that the pirates he had gathered were incredibly strong!

There's a group of guys out there, and he's about to venture into a new world!

"Whoever takes the most heads of naval personnel will be promoted to officer!"

Black's loud announcement immediately ignited the enthusiasm of the pirates present.

Before they could even celebrate for two minutes, a laser cannon shot came, and the pirates there fell silent.

The scene was in complete chaos.

"Straw Hat Boss, the Marines are storming in!"

"The Pacifista, it's the new model!"

The pirates screamed in panic.

They were planning to join the Fifth Emperor's forces and make their mark in the New World, but who would have thought that they would not only face encirclement and suppression by the Navy, but also be confronted by the Navy's war weapons.

On the high platform, Black, wearing a straw hat, waved his arms, trying to appear calm: "Don't panic! We outnumber you! So what if they're pacifists? They're just machines!"

It must be said that Black's eloquence is truly remarkable.

Encouraged by this, some hot-headed pirates rekindled their fighting spirit.

"A pacifist? Interesting."

The waiter, Doti, with a bounty of 88 million, brandished a large machete and charged at a PX-Z Pacifista that had just landed: "I'll chop you into scrap metal!"

However, reality is cruel.

PX-Z raised his arm, and light gathered in his palm.

call out!

The laser beam shot out and pierced directly through Doti's chest.

Before the pirate with a bounty of nearly 100 million could even react, he collapsed with his eyes wide open, a large, charred hole in his chest.

silence.

The pirates, who had just been so excited, fell silent instantly.

"What, are you kidding me?"

Someone said, trembling, "A man with an 88 million bounty was taken down in one strike?"

"Are these new pacifists really that powerful?!"

"Straw Hat Boss, hurry up and make your move!"

The pirates all turned to look at the platform, only to be shocked to find it completely deserted.

Black ran away.

The moment the PX-Z fired, the three-tongued man realized something was terribly wrong.

The prestige of the Fifth Emperor and the dream of a new world are all meaningless in the face of life and death.

He quietly slipped off the platform, blended into the chaotic crowd, and desperately fled towards the outer perimeter.

"Phew, damn it, how did we attract so many marines?"

Black cursed as he ran, "Didn't they say the Straw Hat crew and the Navy had an agreement? Didn't they say the Navy would turn a blind eye when the Emperors of the Sea went to sea?"

As he was running, he suddenly crashed into a wall.

No, it's not a wall.

Black staggered back a few steps and looked up to see a burly man carrying a giant axe coldly staring down at him.

"Straw Hat Boss? Are you guys talking about straw hats?"

Sentomaru sized up the man in front of him, who was wearing a straw hat and a red vest but had a sleazy demeanor, and a clear look of disappointment flashed in his eyes: "Who are you?"

At the same time, the pirates in the vicinity also noticed this scene.

Although they saw Black escape, seeing the Straw Hat leader confronting the Navy rekindled a glimmer of hope.

"Quickly take down that guy, Straw Hat Boss!"

"Let them see the strength of the Fifth Emperor!"

Hey guys, stop stirring things up. I'm not the real Straw Hat.

Looking at the burly man in front of him, cold sweat beaded on Black's forehead, and he could only grit his teeth and straighten his back.

"Hey, do you know who I am? If you don't want to die a violent death in the street and be burned alive, you'd better get out of the way. Don't be scared to death by what you hear!"

"I am the son of Dragon, the Revolutionary Army's hero! The grandson of Garp, the Marine hero! The great pirate who wreaked havoc in the Impel Down War, with a bounty of 35 billion Berries..."

pat!

Sentomaru moved.

The giant axe fell, striking Black squarely on the head.

"Pfft!"

Black's eyes bulged out, and he arched his body like a shrimp before collapsing to the ground unconscious.

The whole process took less than two seconds.

The pirates around them stared wide-eyed; this world seemed a bit unreal.

Isn't that the Emperor of the Sea?!

"A straw hat isn't for trash like you."

Sentomaru sheathed his axe, glanced at the unconscious Black on the ground, and then looked around at the dumbfounded pirates. Suddenly, he understood something.

"So that's how it is, these guys have all been fooled."

Sentomaru shook his head and ordered PX-Z beside him, "Scan who this guy is."

The pacifist's eyes flashed red. "Demar Black, the pirate who loves to lie, has a bounty of 26 million Berries. He has used multiple false identities to deceive people and is nicknamed 'Three Tongues'."

"Twenty-six million?"

One of the pirates screamed, "Didn't he say he was the Straw Hat Boy?!"

"We've been scammed?!"

"I actually got swindled by a mere 26 million worth of trash."

The pirates almost fainted. If it weren't for Straw Hat Luffy, what would they be doing here?

Are we going to be used as target practice by the navy?!

Sentomaru snorted coldly, "The liars' good luck has run out, and so have yours. I'm going to arrest you all."

He picked up the axe, "And, by some strange coincidence, the real straw hat might actually be around here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he abruptly turned his head to look at the end of the street.

Almost simultaneously, two PX-Z Pacifistas also turned their detection devices in that direction, their eyes flashing rapidly red.

"High energy reaction detected. Database match successful. Pirate, Monkey D. Luffy, bounty 35 billion Berries..."

The mechanical announcement instantly put all the naval personnel on high alert.

The crowd followed the pacifists' movements and looked into the distance.

Just then, a PX-Z started moving.

It locked onto Luffy, light gathered in its palm, and the laser began to charge.

"Highest priority target detected. Execute the cleanup procedure."

call out!

The laser beams shot out at speeds that are almost beyond the limits of what the naked eye can perceive.

Then, under everyone's gaze, Luffy simply tilted his head casually.

The laser grazed his cheek and blasted a large hole in the building behind him.

"too slow."

Luffy spoke up, somewhat bored.

But to be honest, these guys really came at the right time.

Looking around, one could see that the pirates and the marines had already started fighting.

The numbers seem quite large, with several pirate crews and the Navy also sending a steady stream of reinforcements.

These imposters that look like bears are different from the pacifists I've seen before. They've changed their skin and are all white, but otherwise they don't seem to have changed at all.

PX-Z seemed to be enraged. Flames erupted from its leg thrusters, and the entire machine charged towards Luffy at terrifying speed, its steel fists aimed straight at his face.

"The speed isn't slow,"

Luffy grinned and instantly appeared above PX-Z, throwing a punch.

The air in front of us was visibly distorted.

Boom!

A deafening explosion swept through the entire block.

Centered on the point of impact, the shock wave spread out in a ring, and the exterior walls of the nearest buildings were instantly covered with cracks.

The ground cracked, debris flew everywhere, and dust billowed into the sky.
