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

However, generally speaking, animals only have two fates in front of him: either they become his meat, just like they just did, or they become his friends.

Well, I won't eat it if it's a friend.

The battle just now yielded so-so results. After all, Luffy couldn't control the attack methods of these big guys, and he was so focused on eating meat that he just fought them to the death.

Since we can't eat it... things would be much easier if we could communicate and exchange ideas.

"Hey, you guys don't want to get eaten either, do you?"

Luffy glanced at them and grinned.

After a beating, he quickly gained absolute authority among these monsters.

If we can't eat them, let's make them useful!

Then the King of Hell began calling roll.

"Different species have different attack methods, but their ultimate goal is to achieve the goal of hunting."

His gaze quickly settled on the giant king cobra.

Suddenly, the animals around the king cobra instinctively took a step back, making room for the giant snake.

King Cobra: "..."

I thank you guys so much.

Learning is not a simple thing.

Luffy's only teacher from childhood to adulthood is probably Garp.

However, Garp's approach to education was mostly laissez-faire; aside from verbally proclaiming that he would train Garp to be the best naval soldier, he didn't intervene much.

To put it more nicely, it gives Luffy a very high degree of freedom to grow and develop, making him highly malleable.

This definitely helped Luffy develop his self-learning ability.

If we were to describe the king cobra's attack in a few words, we would say it's fast, accurate, and ruthless.

The so-called "one-hit kill".

If you want to learn their attack methods, you have to become like them.

"The rubber man transforms into a snake-man, ape-man, or something like that?"

Some images involuntarily flashed through Luffy's mind.

The giant king cobra is still putting on a show.

Luffy watched very intently.

By fixing a certain part of his body and then using the elasticity of his body to launch a sudden attack, he is in some ways similar to his rubber man persona... So Luffy also tried to imitate it.

"Rubber Hydra!!"

Puff puff puff!

Several jet-black rubber arms burst out from behind his shoulder blades, leaving afterimages due to excessive speed.

It's similar to the Gum-Gum Machine Gun in terms of attack style, but the difference is that Luffy wants his attacks to be able to follow up when the enemy dodges to the left or right.

If the rubber machine gun is like a bulldozer crushing everything in its path, then the rubber multi-headed snake can demonstrate its flexible and versatile nature, automatically tracking everything it passes.

The fist is straight, and it seems quite difficult to bend it.

It's like a stick that's standing upright; if you try to bend it, the most likely outcome is that it will break.

Another possibility is that the stick was not of very good quality to begin with, so it is reasonable that it bends easily when bent.

Luffy's hands are in this state right now. When he turns, his two hands collide and then get tangled up like they've been drinking fake alcohol.

The scene instantly became incredibly comical.

"It's very difficult."

Luffy withdrew his hand. Logically speaking, since he is a rubber man, his elasticity is more than enough, so bending it shouldn't be too difficult, and he could even roll it up.

However, once it bends, the force is dissipated, making the strike weak and ineffective.

That became the enemy's way of getting excited.

Who could bear such humiliation?

"Wait, what if there are too many and it becomes difficult to control..."

Luffy realized he had fallen into a trap.

There's a saying that goes, "Taking too big a step can easily lead to disaster."

Even king cobras only use one head to launch an attack.

Luffy stood still, then his hand lashed out like a snake's movement.

"That's right, attacks can bend..."

Luffy's eyes lit up.

Moreover, each turn allows the power to be charged, and the power seems to accumulate. In other words, the more turns you make, the greater the damage the final attack will cause!

That solves it, doesn't it?

His smile brightened.

Species diversity represents a diversity of advantages; each animal has a different way of attacking, and Luffy unknowingly became immersed in it.

When you actually reap some rewards, you forget that you never wanted to reap any rewards in the first place.

Because you have to pay a price to reap rewards.

In the end, Luffy didn't even have the energy to curse anymore.

But the gains were substantial enough.

[Significantly improved animal language experience!]

[Animal Language Level Upgraded to LV1 (100/200) - Breakthrough in Comprehension Threshold!]

After an unknown amount of time, Luffy collapsed onto the ground, exhausted, his rubber body sprawled out: "I'm so hungry..."

The previously harmonious atmosphere froze instantly, and the giant beasts all took three steps back.

Luffy suddenly heard various animal sounds coming from his ears.

"Don't worry, good friends don't eat each other's food."

......

At six o'clock in the morning, Luffy woke up on time and stared blankly at the ceiling.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

I slept for six hours, but it felt like I didn't sleep at all.

Who can understand this feeling?

He only missed a little over an hour of those spare moments. On the surface, he got six hours of sleep, but in reality, it took an extra day to exhaust him.

He didn't know how to calculate it for the time being.

After a long while, he sighed softly.

Although I'm exhausted, I'll do it again next time!

Luffy had no idea if he had developed some kind of problem from being tortured.

After gradually regaining his senses, Luffy belatedly realized what he had seen.

If I had to sum it up in one word, it would be white.

In two words, she's incredibly fair-skinned!

【warn......】

There was no time for him to hesitate. What greeted him next was a familiar voice, and because the yang energy was too strong in the morning, even the beginning stage was over.

Oh no! Luffy quickly removed Nami's hand from his body, only to find a pair of beautiful, big eyes staring at him without blinking when he looked up.

It's Merry.

"Luffy, what are you doing?!"

The sound was crisp and clear, just the right volume. Nami let out a soft moan and opened her eyes. Their eyes met, and Luffy's hand was still in mid-air, as if he was about to do something.

"Luffy..."

Luffy's heart died along with it.

Chapter 61 New Partner Day

"Isn't there anything to explain?"

Nami asked, squinting her eyes.

"I've always wondered whether tomorrow or an accident will come first... Now I know."

Luffy jumped out of bed amidst the warning, "You know what I mean."

"don't know."

Nami pinched his cheek, not intending to let him fool her.

The rubber was stretched.

"That's how it was when I woke up anyway."

Luffy acted like he was completely unfazed.

He looked at Nami, and suddenly a thought struck him, so he turned the tables on Nami, saying, "Then you should explain why you hugged me when I woke up."

“…”

How did he become so smart?
