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

Luffy looked up and could see the towering whale, its head covered in scars, its eyes gazing sadly at the Red Line.

"Raab has never believed that they won't come back; losing the meaning of waiting is more terrifying to him than anything else."

Once you've experienced something like that, it's over.

Colax stared at Luffy, "So..."

"So why not give Raab new hope?"

Luffy was increasingly captivated by the giant whale.

Just like Vivi.

At first, it might just be the countdown to Partner Day that's urging us on, but the more you get to know them, the more you discover their shining qualities.

"What's the meaning."

Colex looked at him strangely, a bad feeling creeping into his heart. "What do you want to do?"

"I said Laboon would be our ally..." Luffy repeated, then shouted, "Merry!"

"Oh~" Merry ran away from Nami and excitedly tossed her magic staff to Luffy.

I'll dismantle myself!

Merry knows Luffy too well.

"Merry?!"

Nami was terrified and shouted:

"What exactly did you teach her?!"

Luffy has already charged onto Laboon's head.

Then, the giants appeared.

"Rubber... Giant Flower Arrangement!"

Raab's expression was roughly like this:

(╥╯﹏╰╥)

Luffy could clearly sense Laboon's emotions.

The constant impacts were just a form of catharsis; Laboon had gradually become numb to the pain. How many years had passed since he crashed into the red earth?

Luffy felt that Laboon was a lot like him, both of them were trying to fulfill a promise, just like he wanted to return the hat to Shanks when they met again.

"So we won't die, because I have the best partners in the world, the best navigators in the world."

“...Even if you say that.” Nami glanced at Vivi, who was equally dumbfounded beside her, and scratched her head in annoyance.

"We'll come back to find you after we've circled the Grand Line once. Then, let's go on an adventure together."

Luffy has an idea.

It's just a 400-meter-long whale, isn't it?

Just because it's not possible now doesn't mean it won't be possible in the future.

Wait until you've circled the Grand Line once, then come back to Laboon... and take it to the Grand Line, to that vast ocean!

Chapter 66 He'll Pay for My Wounds

"Hey, what's with this heavy snow? It was just raining a moment ago."

"As expected, the weather on the Grand Line is just as Uncle Collox said, it's too strange."

"Yeah yeah."

Having bid farewell to Colax and Laboon, they have officially entered the Grand Line.

The Going Merry sailed on a stretch of sea.

on the deck.

"Forget about the blatant accusations, shouldn't you first explain what's going on with Vivi?"

Nami said expressionlessly, "You just let a strange woman onto the ship?"

"Miss Nami!" Sanji was more than happy to have Vivi on board, but before he could finish speaking, Nami swatted him away with her Clima-Tact. "It's already noon, cook, hurry up and prepare the meal!"

"yes....."

That's right, the Clima-Tact, a weapon specially made by Usopp for Nami, has been completed.

After observing the battle unfolding before him, Usopp quietly sat down next to Zoro.

"Zoro, what do you think?"

"Uncle Colex said that woman named Vivi who hunts whales doesn't seem like a good person."

"Ah, Luffy, as the captain, has already made his decision, so he's practically a crewmate now... Anyway, that's just how Luffy's judgment is. Do you think that cook looks like a good person?"

Usopp thought about it carefully, and realized that Zoro was actually right!

Zoro yawned and stared ahead.

"Compared to that, what I'm more concerned about is when Luffy will be able to resolve this matter... He needs to train."

"...Are you some kind of devil?" Usopp retorted.

But now, as he looked at Nami in front of him, it seemed as if some kind of demonic horns had sprouted from her forehead.

.....

"In short, now that we've arrived in a new sea, we need new crew members and new adventures!" Luffy braced himself and showed the composure of a captain!

As the captain of the ship, Nami wouldn't find it strange what Luffy did; even if he later recruited a skull as a crew member, it would be normal.

Finding a partner is out of the question, but it's not that I can't accept it.

However, no matter how you look at it, Weiwei doesn't seem to be willing to get on the ship; she hasn't said a word since the beginning.

“My name is Nami, and I’m the navigator of this ship.” Nami extended her hand. “Please forgive us if our idiot captain does anything strange to you. He sometimes has these crazy moments.”

Do you mean he spanks you often?

Who are these guys on that pirate ship?!

Luffy retorted, "Nami, what kind of stereotype is this?"

"I know. But before that, could I borrow the captain?"

Vivi and Nami shook hands and she smiled sweetly.

After what happened with Laboon, her opinion of Luffy has indeed changed somewhat.

Well, it was quite different from what she had imagined pirates to be like.

But if I don't avenge this, I won't be Weiwei!

You think you can just spank my butt whenever you want?

While taking a bath, she would gently caress her shapely buttocks, which she found very attractive, but Luffy beat her up so badly that she felt pain with every movement.

Can I borrow it?

Luffy sensed the presence of a conspiracy.

"If you don't mind, could you tell me about it?"

Nami crossed her arms, her eyes sweeping over the smiling Vivi before settling on Luffy like a cold knife.

Is it done?

Luffy keenly sensed that something was amiss.

Observation Haki is very useful in this regard.

“I need someone to pay for my wounds,” Vivi said with a forced smile.

In her mind, this sentence should have been an allusion to Nami, but from Nami's perspective, Luffy's medical skills have improved by leaps and bounds for some reason, making him practically the ship's doctor.

"Okay, do you need my help?"

"No need, I'll have Merry help me out!"

Seeing an opportunity, Luffy seized the chance.

Vivi's intentions are truly malicious; she actually tried to sow discord between him and Nami right from the start!

Although he sensed that the so-called partnership was subtly deteriorating... it couldn't be that bad, could it?

In any case, Nami absolutely cannot find out about this.

At this moment, intelligence has once again taken the lead.

[Automatically adjusting based on your physical condition. Partner Day is over. Please begin your daily training immediately... Countdown: 30 seconds.]

[Warning, punishment countdown begins.....]

[Adjustments should be made to suit the character's current state. Essential knowledge is necessary to become the Pirate King, and it helps in better developing Devil Fruit abilities.]

[Random learning project... Learn with Vivi, please start immediately.]

Ok?

This was the first time Luffy had received such a strange plan: all he had to do was study with Vivi, with no other conditions attached?

Is it because of Nika?

Many things rushed into my mind, but only a moment passed.

"let's go."

Before Vivi could say anything more, Luffy had already grabbed her wrist.

This was a little different from what she had imagined! And the petals on both sides swaying from side to side when she took a step was already painful, so Weiwei stood like a wooden stake.

"what happened?"
