Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

"Hey, isn't that...?"

On the bustling street, someone grabbed their companion's arm and pointed to a group of people walking towards them in the distance.

"What?!"

His companion glanced over casually, then his pupils contracted.

"Pirates?!"

He stared intently at the people's clothing and the various weapons they held, and immediately concluded that they were a group of pirates.

"Let's go somewhere else, so we don't run into these guys."

The two immediately quickened their pace and slipped away from the pirates.

Meanwhile, other people on the street also noticed this group of uninvited guests.

Those who were quick hid before the pirates got close;

Those who are quick-witted but don't have time to run should quickly make way to avoid getting into trouble for blocking the way.

Suddenly, the middle of the street became empty and quiet, with only the chaotic footsteps of the pirates approaching from afar.

At the glutinous rice ball stall, the owner turned off the boiler and hid behind the stall like a quail, not daring to peek out.

The customers in front of the stall had all left, and only Wukong was still sitting at the table, sipping his glutinous rice balls.

"Huh? What happened?"

Noticing the sudden silence around him, he scooped up the last glutinous rice ball from the bowl and slowly savored it.

Meanwhile, his eyes darted around, curiously looking at his surroundings.

"It's been a long time since any pirates have come here. I didn't expect a group of them to come today."

As he was observing, he overheard several hushed conversations.

That was the voice of the people who had retreated to the side of the street, watching the pirates approach with wary eyes.

"Yes, and they're pirates with bounties on their wanted posters. The leader should be Rock Wolf. I remember his bounty was around three million Berries."

Wukong glanced at the few people talking quietly, then at the group of people swaggering down the street, and blinked.

Pirates?

Rock the Wolf?

Three million Berry?

Thinking of Nami's heavy-hearted look yesterday when she said she was determined to earn 100 million Berries no matter what, a look that seemed to hide sadness and bitterness, he immediately made a decision.

He stuffed the last small piece of the glutinous rice ball into his mouth and quickly swallowed it.

Then he jumped off the chair, and amidst the astonished gazes of the others, he darted to the group on the street and asked in a crisp voice, "Excuse me, which one of you is Locke the Wolf?"

At this very moment, Locke the wolf, who was leading his men to find a place to relax, never expected that a little brat would jump out in front of him.

Upon hearing Wukong's question, he licked the scar on his lip, grinned, and said, "I am Locke the Wolf. What do you want, brat?"

His men behind him were grinning and joking.

"Captain! Is he a little fanboy who admires you after hearing your name and wants to follow you around?"

"Hahaha! It might actually be true. Our captain is a notorious pirate with a bounty of three million Berries. Who wouldn't want to join him?"

As the wolf Locke heard his men's flattery, the corners of his mouth widened.

He looked at Wukong and said mockingly, "Kid, you're a bit too young to join us. A brat like you who's still wet behind the ears should go home and suckle for a few more years until you're taller before coming to find me!"

"Hahahaha!!" The subordinates behind him laughed so hard they clutched their stomachs.

Wukong ignored his words and asked seriously, "So, are you a bad person? Have you ever done anything bad?"

Locke the wolf paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, "Hahahaha! How could you ask such a funny question, you brat!"

"We're pirates, and pirates are bad guys, of course! Burning, killing, and looting—we've done it all, hahaha!"

Upon hearing his answer, Wukong's face turned serious, and he instantly assumed a fighting stance.

"Since you're bad people, then I can defeat you!"

Locke the wolf's laughter faltered.

"Defeat us?"

He never expected Wukong to say such a thing.

He had thought they had come to seek refuge with him, but they had turned out to be there to defeat him. This huge psychological gap immediately enraged him.

Without thinking, he raised his big foot, ready to kick the annoying brat away.

But to his surprise, his kick missed completely.

Moreover, he is about to face the most devastating blow of his life.

Wukong leaped high into the air and struck a flying kick pose.

Then, with a loud shout, he kicked the wolf Locke hard on the head like a cannonball.

The next moment, the wolf Locke's mouth twisted into a crooked shape, and several teeth flew out instantly.

Not only that, his tall and heavy body slammed backward, knocking his men to the ground.

One second later,

When they saw their captain lying motionless on the ground with his eyes rolled back, the pirates dropped their weapons and fled for their lives with their hands raised.

"Whoa!! The captain's been knocked down!! We have to run!!!"

......

Nami, who had just come out of the third bar, rubbed her forehead and sighed, "It seems that no one on this island knows anything about that martial arts tournament."

She frequented bars with high foot traffic, and the owners, who spent all their time there, were undoubtedly people with extremely well-informed sources.

However, after asking three bar owners, none of them had ever heard of the World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament.

This situation indicates that information about this martial arts tournament has not circulated here.

Since that's the case, there's no need to inquire about the island any further.

With that in mind, she prepared to go back to find Wukong and then hurry out to sea to the next island.

But then she saw someone rushing by on the street, muttering, "Hurry up, hurry up, the pirates might be coming soon."

Her expression changed, and she quickly stopped one of them, asking, "Hey! You're talking about pirates, where are the pirates?"

The person who was stopped pointed behind them casually: "It's just behind. I heard they've already reached Pear Blossom Street. You'd better hurry up and go too!"

Having said that, he walked past her and hurried away into the distance.

"Pear Blossom Street?"

Nami pondered the place name, then her expression changed drastically.

Isn't this Pear Blossom Street the place where Sun Wukong ate glutinous rice balls?

Could Wukong have run into pirates? I told him to wait for me there!

He'll probably be clever enough to hide, right?

Her face showed some anxiety, and she was already rushing towards Pear Blossom Street like an arrow released from a bow.

Soon after, panting, she arrived at the end of Pear Blossom Street, then hid at a corner and cautiously peeked out to look at the street.

......

At this moment, on Pear Blossom Street, many people surrounded Wukong, praising him with admiration.

"So young and promising! Truly so young and promising!"

"Little friend, no, little hero, you are truly remarkable! You managed to subdue the infamous wolf, Crowe. Given time, you will surely become an even more extraordinary person!"

As the protagonist, Wukong was a little embarrassed by the praise and just kept smiling foolishly while holding his head.

Just then, the crowd parted slightly, allowing him to spot Nami hiding around the corner.

So he grabbed one of the bound and gagged wolf Kuro's legs, dragged him out of the crowd, and waved to Nami, saying, "Hey! Nami! I've caught a pirate!"
