One Piece: Starting as the First Mate of the Lothar Pirates

With a thud, Rocks, the once-mighty maritime tyrant, fell to his knees.

"Please, Harald, I know my first mate did something terribly wrong to Elbaf, but please give him, and us, a chance!"

……

Chapter 120 Black Dragon Loki! The Perverted Shakky! Junzi's Memories Unsealed!

Rocks D. Gibbek!

Captain Rocks Mercenary!

The dominant force on the seas of an era!

In this vast ocean today, no one is more qualified than him to bear the name of the times!

Yet, this very same tyrant was now kneeling before others, begging!

At that moment, Luo Chuan was stunned.

At that moment, Harald was also stunned.

Neither Luo Chuan nor Harald expected that a man like Lockes would do such a thing.

After a brief moment of deathly silence, Luo Chuan was the first to come back to his senses, his smile vanishing completely.

"Get up now! You're Rocks, after all. I don't need you to sell your dignity to plead for me!" Luo Chuan said resolutely.

"Luo Chuan, don't say or do anything now, that's the captain's order!" Lockes shouted.

"I……"

Luo Chuan opened his mouth, wanting to make everything clear.

Everything he did today was never an impulsive act.

He admitted that his arrogant behavior so far was intended to provoke the giants.

Because he wanted to use this opportunity to have a good fight with Harald.

Of course, Luo Chuan was well aware of Lockes's desire to win over Harald, so he had prepared a contingency plan for reconciliation long ago.

After he has fought Harald, Loki, who is in a coma, will likely wake up soon.

Then the giants will discover that it was not Luo Chuan who ate the secret treasure Nidhogg Fruit, but Prince Loki.

As Lu Xun once said, people's temperament always prefers harmony and compromise.

For example, if you say that the room is too dark and you need to open a window here, everyone will definitely not allow it.

But if you insist on removing the roof, they will mediate and indicate that they are willing to open windows.

The same applies here; if Luo Chuan were to devour Nidhogg, the giants would definitely not let it go.

But when they discovered that it was their own prince who had actually eaten the fruit... they might still feel awkward inside, but they would definitely feel much better, since it was one of their own who had eaten it.

At that time, if Luo Chuan spoiled some future events for Harald, revealing things like the sun god Nika and Nidhogg would join forces to overthrow the world government... Harald's thoughts might change.

This is Luochuan's plan!

Everything was going smoothly until Rocks' kneeling disrupted the flow.

“Don’t do this, Rocks, it’s not your fault.” Harald shook his head helplessly. “Aren’t you going to be the King of the World? Would the King of the World kneel before others?”

“My first mate did something like this, so as captain, I bear the responsibility.” Lockes grinned. “Besides, he’s not just my crew member, he’s my brother!”

Another long period of silence followed.

Harald, sitting on the throne, sighed and said, "Even if you say so, this matter is of utmost importance. Even if I can let it go, the people of Elbaf will not agree!"

Just then, a huge commotion broke out at Orsto Castle, with the terrifying roar of giants and the sound of walls collapsing alternating.

"What happened?" Harald's expression changed.

"Your Majesty!"

Several giant guards rushed into the hall, their faces filled with undisguised shock.

"Loki...it's Prince Loki!"

"Loki? What happened to him?" Harald suddenly stood up, his face filled with anxiety.

When he went to check on Loki just now, he was perfectly fine, but in such a short time...

"Your Majesty, Prince Loki... the prince has turned into a monster!"

Just as the giant guard finished speaking, a series of earth-shaking footsteps came from outside the hall.

"dad"

Loki's voice rang out, and what appeared in the sight of Loki, Rocks, and Harald was a huge black dragon's head.

"Nidhogg!!!"

Harald's eyes widened suddenly; as the King of Giants, he recognized the black dragon at a glance.

"Are you Loki?"

"It's me, Dad! Look, Dad... Ah, Mr. Rocks and Mr. Thor are here too! This is wonderful! I've become stronger now, please let me join Rocks's F-F ...

"Loki is in his Nidhogg form, the black dragon," Loki said happily.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a legendary, god-tier fruit!

Luo Chuan thought Loki would need some time to wake up, but he didn't expect him to wake up so quickly.

With the bloodline of ancient giants and the divine mythical beast Nidhogg, this regenerative ability is extraordinary.

"Kid, so you're the one who ate the Nidhogg Fruit!" Rocks exclaimed in surprise.

The next second, he slapped his forehead and finally realized what was happening.

Luo Chuan is a user of the Copy Fruit, but he has not actually broken the basic rules of the Devil Fruit.

Having already eaten one fruit, if he were to eat Nidhogg as well, he would probably explode and die long ago.

From the very beginning, it was impossible for Luo Chuan to eat the fruit.

"Seriously, Luo Chuan, you bastard, you should have said earlier that the Devil Fruit was for Loki!" Rocks said.

Luo Chuan remained silent.

"Mr. Rocks, am I now qualified to join you?" asked Loki the Black Dragon.

"Hahaha, you're still a long way from joining us, but you've at least reached the threshold. We'll see when you've perfectly mastered this ability," Rocks laughed.

His original intention was to get Harald to take down Nidhogg and then join forces with him.

But since things have come to this point, it's probably best to let Harald's son eat it.

Loki, who inherited the bloodline of the ancient giants, may not necessarily be weaker than Harald in the future.

"Oh, I will definitely try my best," Loki said confidently.

“Loki, can you turn back now?” Harald said.

"I'll give it a try." Loki quickly mastered the transformation technique and returned to human form.

Fortunately, he is still young, and the black dragon he transforms into is also small.

If it were him in the future, the entire castle would probably be too big for him; he would probably burst the castle.

"Dad, please grant Mr. Rocks' request! If we join forces with Mr. Rocks and his men, we can definitely conquer the world!" young Loki said excitedly.

“Loki, these things are too far removed from your life, soldier. Now take the prince back to rest.”

At Harald's command, Loki was led away from the palace by the giant guards.

Now that they knew Nidhogg had been eaten by his own son, the atmosphere in the hall eased considerably.

King Harald the Giant frowned, pondered for a long time, and then said, "Lox, although the treasure of Elbaf wasn't eaten by Thor on your ship, it was ultimately because of him that these things happened, so..."

Harald sighed and said, "You should leave. Leaving Elbaf is the best way."

Just as Lox was about to say something...

“One person does the deed and takes the blame. If I want to leave, I will leave alone. Locke and the others are unaware of this.”

After saying that, Luo Chuan turned and left without hesitation.

As he was about to leave the main hall, he paused for a moment.

"Harald, I'll give you one last piece of advice: being a dog of the World Government will not end well. If you persist in your ways, you will surely regret it one day. I'll be waiting to see that day!"

Leaving behind his final words, Luo Chuan didn't linger. His figure transformed into a bolt of lightning, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

“Luo Chuan…” Lockes opened his mouth, but in the end it only turned into a sigh.

……

……

Lightning streaked across the night sky.

Luo Chuan was in a very bad mood at the moment.

Rocks regarded him as a brother, and even knelt down before others for his sake, a bond that deeply moved him.

But the fact that he made a man like Rocks bow and scrape to others because of him infuriated him.

Having spent eight years together, they were each other's earliest partners and have supported each other all the way to this day.

Not only did Rocks regard him as a brother, but Luo Chuan also regarded Rocks as a brother.

How could a man like Rocks kneel before someone else?

At this moment, Luo Chuan felt a fire burning inside him, unsure whether it was directed at himself, Harald, or Lockes.

His mind was a complete mess, and he needed someone to help him sort it out.

Instant Instant Fruit - Flying Thunder God Technique, Anchor!!

Swish!

At this very moment.

The Oro Jackson Seaship

"Hahaha, come on, my little ones, after this cup there are three more, let's all have a good feast."

Today, Roger the Straw Hat Boy and his crew, the "King of Travel," are still having a joyful party.

"Where did this cheap liquor come from? It tastes absolutely awful!"

An untimely sound rang out, instantly attracting the attention of Roger's group.

"Uwaaaa"

"Thor Luo Chuan!!!"

"You...you...why are you here again?"

Colonel Murray, Spencer, and other members of Roger's detachment were sent to the ship.

Over the past three years, Luo Chuan has come to their ship more than once.

"Mr. Luochuan, what brings you here?" the fishman Sambell greeted him warmly.

Both Nina and Kokoro were saved because of Luo Chuan, and Sambelle was sincerely grateful to Luo Chuan.

“Hey, Luo Chuan, what nonsense are you talking about? The wine on my ship is the best.” Roger said discontentedly.

"That's it? Try mine instead." Luo Chuan casually waved his hand, and a wine barrel taller than a person appeared on the deck. "I brought this from Elbaf."

"Elbaf!!!"

Roger's group's private affairs were like eggplants, which were difficult to digest.

They had naturally heard of the legendary land of giants.

The delicious wine, with its pungent aroma and rich flavor, finally made everyone's eyes light up.

"It's alright!" Roger said stubbornly.

"Luo Chuan, did you just come from Elbaf?" Rayleigh asked.

“Yes…” Luo Chuan then began to speak.
