Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

Chapter 317 Kizaru: I'm just a working man

The soft sunlight streamed gently through the window, illuminating a figure in the office who was leisurely dozing with his eyes closed.

Kizaru rested his head on his hands, his body sinking completely into the soft leather chair, his long legs crossed and lazily propped up on the mahogany table that was supposed to be used for office work.

The sunglasses that he seemed to never take off his face were now removed and placed aside, reflecting a dark light in the sunlight.

A gentle breeze quietly drifted into the room, causing the curtains to sway slightly, as if welcoming its arrival.

The stack of documents on the table trembled slightly, making a rustling sound from time to time.

The entire office was peaceful and quiet, exuding an air of tranquility.

"What a relaxing day. It's almost time to get off work."

Kizaru, who had been asleep for an unknown amount of time, quietly opened his eyes, turned his head slightly, and looked at the bright red sunset on the horizon.

He was the only one in the Navy Headquarters who looked so relaxed.

There used to be another Aokiji, but ever since Aokiji decided to compete with Akainu for the position of Fleet Admiral, he has been unable to continue living such a leisurely life.

"I wonder how those two are doing," Kizaru muttered to himself.

He knew that Akainu and Aokiji were going to the deserted island today to have a showdown to decide who would be the Fleet Admiral.

With his qualifications, he would have been a strong candidate for the position of Navy Commander-in-Chief, but he had no interest in it whatsoever.

In his words, he was just an employee. Being a general was tiring enough. To be a naval admiral, who was so busy that he couldn't eat or sleep well and was under immense pressure, would be the death of him.

"Forget it, what does it have to do with me? It doesn't matter who becomes the marshal. I'd better hurry up and go to the canteen to eat. I've been sleeping for so long, and I'm a little hungry."

Kizaru stretched lazily, put his legs off the table, and put his sunglasses back on his face.

Although there was still a little time before he was completely off work, leaving early had long been the norm for him. As long as there was nothing else to do, he would leave work early to go to the cafeteria for dinner.

He stood up and walked to the coat rack by the window, preparing to take off his navy cloak and hang it up.

After get off work, you can't wear this anymore, otherwise you'll find yourself needing to work overtime.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and he looked out the window.

On the open ground not far downstairs, a large group of naval soldiers were urgently assembling, seemingly preparing for some mission.

Kizaru vaguely heard the words "Mary Geoise" and "rebellion," and his brows furrowed slightly.

It sounds like something really big has happened.

But then he thought, what does this have to do with him? The Warring States Master hadn't notified him, so he figured he didn't have any mission. He should hurry up and eat. The food was freshly cooked and tasted the best at this time; it would lose some of its flavor if it was too late.

After putting away his navy cloak, he hummed a little tune and prepared to stroll out of the office.

Just as he grasped the doorknob, ready to turn the door open, an untimely phone call rang.

Plop plop! Plop plop!

A hurried voice came from his chest, and Kizaru's face fell, the wrinkles on his forehead seeming to deepen even more.

"Honestly, why did it have to be at this time?"

Kizaru sighed, rubbing his forehead. Although he hadn't answered the phone yet, he already knew it must be Fleet Admiral Sengoku calling.

He reluctantly took out his Den Den Mushi, and as soon as the call connected, Sengoku's impatient voice, suppressing his anger, immediately rang in his ears.

"Borusalino! Go to Mary Geoise right now! There's a huge uproar there! Goku and his friends, and maybe others, have attacked Mary Geoise."

"Go there immediately to provide support! Also, find Garp for me! If that damned Garp has done anything he shouldn't have, you, you..."

""

Sengoku's heavy breathing came through the Den Den Mushi.

"You wake him up! And bring him back to me!!!"

boom!!!!!

In the central region of Mary Geoise, an earth-shattering battle is currently taking place.

Garp's fists were enveloped in Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, and he had pushed all his power to its peak. A terrifying aura burst forth, a strong wind swirled around him, and the Navy cloak with the word "Justice" printed on it fluttered behind him.

Although he was over seventy years old, his eyes still showed the arrogance and wildness that a young man should have, just like when he chased Roger decades ago, launching a fierce attack on Im.

Known as Iron Fist Garp, his punches are fierce and domineering, with unparalleled power. Every punch causes the space to tremble, the air to explode, the wind to howl, and the earth to crack!

The saying "one punch can break all techniques" is nothing more than this.

Whitebeard was originally plagued by injuries and illnesses, but with Wukong's help, he was able to restore his physical condition to its peak. At this moment, his eyebrows and eyes were deep, his aura was as heavy as a mountain, and he was as powerful and domineering as if he were cleaving the sky.

He wielded Murakumogiri, one of the twelve Supreme Grade Swords, its power intertwined with Conqueror's Haki. Every time he raised his hand to slash at Im, it carried the force of shattering the heavens and splitting the earth, causing space to shatter.

The man who was hailed as the strongest in the world, after returning to his peak, once again unleashed his unparalleled brilliance!

Despite being besieged by two peerless experts, Im remained unfazed, maintaining his usual indifferent expression, as if this was not a life-or-death battle, but just an ordinary fight.

He wielded a long-handled greatsword wreathed in black demonic flames and Conqueror's Haki. His movements were so fast that they could not be caught by the naked eye. He moved freely and effortlessly amidst the attacks of the two powerful figures, dodging or counterattacking with ease.

Each time he clashed with Garp or Whitebeard, earth-shattering forces collided violently, and deafening roars echoed throughout the world.

An invisible shockwave exploded from the center of the collision, sweeping outwards in all directions with overwhelming force.

Wherever it passed, the clouds dispersed, the earth cracked open, and various buildings were violently destroyed in the shockwave, turning into countless dust particles.

With Garp and Whitebeard's deliberate guidance, their battle with Im has moved further and further away from Goku, allowing them to fight more freely and use all their strength to battle Im.

But seeing Im remain calm and composed despite their fierce attacks, the two men's expressions gradually became serious.

Is this guy hiding behind the Five Elders really that powerful?

On the other side, several hundred meters away from this battlefield, many battles were also taking place.

This time, including Namur who came with Goku and the others, the Whitebeard Pirates sent a total of twelve captains. Apart from Namur and Marco who went to find Namur, the ten captains here are Ace, Vista, Lakuyo, Blenheim, Kingdo, Fossa, Izo, Bramanck, Harta, and Curiel.

Diamond Jozu, one of the strongest captains, was originally supposed to come, but he didn't because he needed to lead the Whitebeard Pirates to Wano Country to mislead the World Government and allow Whitebeard and his crew to secretly reach the Red Line.

The ten captains varied in strength, with Ace and Vista being the strongest. Each of them fought a single one of the Five Elders, resulting in a fierce battle.

Why didn't they attack the Five Elders? It was because just as they were about to fight the Five Elders, six members of the Knights of God arrived.

Upon discovering the arrival of six more powerful enemies, each of the six captains faced off against a member of the Knights of God.

Ace faced Satan Saint.

Vista faced off against Nasujuro Sei, who also used swordsmanship.

The remaining Vocuri Saints were to be fought by Izo and Kingudo, two of the stronger captains.

"Fire Fist!!!"

boom!!!!

Ace's signature move landed powerfully on Satan.

Unlike his previous Fire Fist, his Fire Fist is now imbued with a layer of Conqueror's Haki, making its power even greater.

The ability to achieve this improvement is naturally due to the sparring session with Wukong some time ago.

but-

Although his attack successfully hit the enemy, Ace showed no joy on his face, but rather a solemn expression.

Because he saw that the wounds on Satan Saint's body inflicted by the Fire Fist were healing rapidly.

In just a few blinks of an eye, the wound completely disappeared.

"What's with this weird regenerative ability?" A shadow fell over Ace's mind.

He knew that the enemy before him was probably the most troublesome enemy he had ever faced in his life!

Meanwhile, Vista also noticed this ominous situation.

Just as his blade was about to sever Nasujuro Sei's shoulder, leaving a bloody wound, the other party ignored it and simultaneously inflicted a wound on him.

Immediately afterwards, he noticed that the other person's wound was healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, while his own wound was still bleeding.

"Damn it, this guy actually has this ability. No wonder he couldn't dodge my attacks at all."

Bista knelt on the ground, clutching his bleeding chest, his teeth clenched.

Besides the two of them, some captains also discovered that the enemy had a terrifying constitution that allowed them to heal quickly, so they became more and more cautious in their attacks, but as a result, they gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.

In the distance, Nami stood guard beside Goku, watching the battle with her beautiful eyes filled with worry.

"These enemies are terrifying; ordinary damage has absolutely no effect on them."

They thought that with strong reinforcements coming to their aid, the situation would immediately improve, but unexpectedly, so many more powerful enemies appeared, and the situation not only did not improve, but actually became worse.

Nami's heart skipped a beat.

Just then, whoosh—!!!

A golden flash suddenly shot from the sky and appeared in the sky above the battlefield in the blink of an eye, revealing the figure of a tall man.

The person who arrived was none other than Kizaru, who had rushed from Marineford after receiving Sengoku's orders.

At this moment, Kizaru was suspended in mid-air, looking down at the people fighting fiercely. He recognized three of the Five Elders and the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Then, looking towards the distant, imposing and awe-inspiring battle, he saw Garp of his own navy joining forces with Whitebeard to attack a terrifyingly powerful opponent he had never seen before. His already wrinkled old face became even more wrinkled.

Oh no! It seems he's stumbled into some really messy water!

Marshal of the Warring States Period, you've really put me in a difficult position!

Kizaru looked worried.

It was supposed to be just a raid on the Holy Land by Sun Wukong and his crew, how did it turn into a war between the Whitebeard Pirates and the Holy Land?

Moreover, that guy who even Whitebeard and Garp couldn't defeat together, who exactly is he...?

After contemplating a terrible possibility, Kizaru sighed.

"That's really scary."

He should pretend he didn't see anything and leave as soon as possible, before it's too late.

As he was having many thoughts in the air, the people below noticed his arrival and looked up.

Nami's expression changed upon recognizing him: "Is that Admiral Kizaru?!"

Ace and Satan Saint clashed fists violently, then stepped back and looked solemnly at the sky.

Kizaru has arrived too. This is bad news. If he helps the World Government, their situation will become quite dangerous.

Satan Saint also noticed Kizaru's arrival, and he understood that Sengoku must have sent him to help.

So he coldly ordered, "Borusalino, why aren't you joining the battle now? Clean up these troublemakers who are disturbing the Holy Land!"

In their battle against Ace and the other captains, the members of the Knights of God were steadily gaining the upper hand. In particular, the battle between Nasujuro and Vista was in which the injured Vista was struggling to cope with Nasujuro's attacks and was on the verge of defeat.

If Kizaru were to join the fray, the battle here would undoubtedly end much faster.

At that time, all that is needed for Lord Im is to take down Whitebeard and Garp, and this turmoil will be basically over.

As for Sun Wukong and his companions, well, at this point he no longer cared about them at all.

Having received orders from his superior, Kizaru seemed ready to obey and take action immediately.

Just then, Garp's voice came from afar.

"Borsalino, don't you see?! The greatest evil in the world has appeared before you!"

Garp paused his attack on Im, his lightning-fast eyes piercing Kizaru, his voice firm and powerful.

Kizaru's expression didn't change much, but if you looked closely at his eyes, you could see a barely perceptible flicker in them.

"For so many years, the World Government has deceived us, deceived everyone in the world. It has never been an alliance, but a dictatorship. The guy in front of you is the king hiding behind the Five Elders! A dictator sitting on the throne!"

Karp pointed at Im and said emphatically.

Kizaru's facial muscles twitched involuntarily, as if his suspicions had been confirmed.

Garp continued, "Borsalino! After all these years, I think you should have realized one thing: the current World Government is the greatest evil in the world, and the crimes it has committed are countless! As members of the Navy, if we truly want to uphold justice, we need to remove this biggest cancer!!"

If Kizaru hadn't come, he wouldn't have tried to drag the other party into this mess so quickly.

Because he knew that with his current strength, it was impossible to kill Im and overthrow the existing world government.

Even if the Whitebeard Pirates came, it would be the same.

His only goal from beginning to end was to rescue Wukong from here.

He firmly believes that if Goku is given more time to grow, he will eventually have the power to defeat Im and overthrow the World Government.

But now that Kizaru has arrived, and he has discovered that their situation is very bad, and if Kizaru joins the World Government, things will be even worse, so he has no choice but to try to bring Kizaru to his side.

In this way, they can turn the tide and recover some of their disadvantages.

Kizaru stood silently in mid-air, neither responding to Garp's words nor obeying Satan Saint's order to immediately attack the Whitebeard Pirates.

Seeing this, Satan Saint coldly questioned, "Borsalino, aren't you going to act quickly? Are you going to betray the World Government like that senile old Garp?"

While fighting the enemy, the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates were already on high alert for Kizaru.

They couldn't know if Kizaru would stand with them like Garp, but they knew that if he decided to support the World Government, their situation would become extremely dangerous!

After remaining silent for a full two minutes, Kizaru, who had been hovering in the air like a statue, suddenly sighed, rubbing his forehead.

"I'm just a worker who follows orders from my superiors, and I really hate all this talk of principles."

Ace and the others tensed up instantly, their expressions becoming extremely serious.

It seems that Kizaru is going to stand on the opposite side.

Nami, who was standing beside Goku, also had a solemn expression.

If Kizaru really intends to take action against them, then she will have to drag her injured body into the fray.

It's just a question of how long she can hold off the other party given her current physical condition.

Amidst everyone's tension, Kizaru in the air suddenly transformed into particles of light and dissipated.

The next instant, he appeared above Vista's head.

Covered in Armament Haki, the light-speed leg shot up high and with a thud, blocked Vista's fatal blow before he could react!

"Borsalino! Do you really intend to defy us?! Defy the World Government?!"

Nasujiro's pupils shrank as his attack was blocked, and he questioned Nasujiro with a mixture of shock and anger.

"I'm sorry, I don't know why I did this. Just pretend you didn't see it," Kizaru said with a worried expression.

Vista, who had been helped, looked at him with some surprise, then solemnly thanked him, saying, "Thank you for saving me."

Esnami and the others breathed a huge sigh of relief.

The fact that Kizaru didn't side with them, but instead joined their ranks, is incredibly good news for them right now.

Boom boom boom!!!

Boom boom boom!!!

The battle started again.

After Kizaru joined the fight, Vista withdrew from the battle with Nasujuro and went to help his other comrades who had fallen to the bottom among the Knights of God.

As for Nasujuro, he was undoubtedly left to Kizaru to deal with.

After about ten minutes, Robin came running from a distance, panting, and arrived at Nami and Goku's side.

After Nami left, she knew things were going badly, so she handed over the task of rescuing the slaves to others and then rushed here alone.

"Huff! Huff! Goku, Nami, are you... are you alright?"

She had practically run all the way here, so she was so tired that she could barely speak coherently.

As she gasped for breath, Nami quickly explained the current situation, then looked worriedly at Goku, who was still desperately fighting against the enemy's power, and said, "This is the situation. Goku is entangled by some strange power and can't break free at all. Moreover, that power is still eroding his body. If we can't rescue him soon, I don't know what terrible things will happen."

Robin gradually calmed down, and even after hearing such bad news, she remained calm.

She pondered for a moment, then looked at the fiery orange-red sunset on the horizon and asked Wukong, "Wukong, how much longer can you hold on?"

At this moment, Goku's size had shrunk considerably, almost returning to his original form.

This is because he was greatly exhausted while fighting against the strange forces.

To replenish his strength, he could only use the energy he had previously stored up by sacrificing his life, which caused his body size to gradually shrink.

Upon hearing Robin's question, Goku replied while continuing to fight, "I should be able to hold out for another hour or so. I'm not entirely sure, though. That power has weakened a bit compared to before, so I can hold out a little longer now."

Upon hearing this answer, Robin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He then flashed a confident smile.

"If that's the case, then there's a way."

"What's the solution, Robin?" Nami asked anxiously.

She had been thinking for a long time but couldn't come up with a solution, but Robin arrived with one right away, which surprised and delighted her.

Robin pointed her index finger at the sky and smiled slightly, saying, "Nami, have you forgotten? Today is the day of the full moon."
