Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

[Title Page]

Eustace Kidd held Krieg aloft, his smile arrogant and cruel.

Behind them, the Krik's fleet was engulfed in flames, and after groaning in agony, it sank into the sea one after another.

The World Economic News newspaper headline reads: "Recently, the Krieg Pirates, former rulers of the East Blue, were brutally massacred by the Kid Pirates; all 5,000+ crew members perished!"

Inside the restaurant, Sanji, having packed his bags, walked out the door expressionlessly and headed straight for the Dream Chaser.

On the floating platform, Paddy, Carne, and other chefs stood on either side, watching him pass by with indifferent expressions, seemingly unmoved by his departure.

After reaching the edge of the floating platform, Sanji threw the bundle in his hand onto the Dream Chaser and then jumped on as well.

"Let's go, Wukong."

He spoke to Wukong, who was already waiting for him on the ship.

"Don't you guys need to say goodbye to each other?" Goku clung to the ship's railing, looking at Sanji with a puzzled expression, then at the expressionless crowd below.

"No need, there's no need to be so sentimental."

Sanji smiled slightly, seemingly quite indifferent, but from beginning to end, he never turned around to face the Baratie group.

"I really don't understand you guys." Wukong scratched his head and prepared to raise the sail.

At that moment, a seemingly ordinary but deeply caring instruction came from the second floor of Barati.

"Sanji, it's windy at sea, remember not to catch a cold."

Zeff appeared out at some point, leaned against the railing, and smiled as he watched Sanji's retreating figure.

That usually stern gaze now appeared incredibly gentle.

Sanji's body stiffened, and then he began to tremble slightly.

Tick ​​tock!

Tick ​​tock!

Before I knew it, tears welled up and fell to the ground like pearls from a broken string.

Sanji's lips tightened, and he kept sniffling. His previously aloof and pretentious demeanor had completely collapsed.

He thought of how Zeff had lost a leg saving him.

Thinking of Zeff's guidance, care, and support over the years, he could no longer contain his surging emotions. He turned around abruptly, kowtowed forcefully to Zeff, and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Dad Zeff!! Thank you for taking care of me all these years!!"

"I will never forget your immense kindness!!"

Zeff continued to smile at him, but before he knew it, tears were welling up in his eyes.

At the same time, the chefs who had previously maintained a cold and aloof demeanor could no longer hold back their emotions and burst into tears.

"Waaaaah!! You bastard!! You little brat!!"

"So lonely! We're so lonely now that you're gone!!"

Sanji raised his head, stood up, and looked down at his companions who had been with him for many years. Those tough guys who never cried were sobbing uncontrollably, and he couldn't help but shed even more tears.

"Alright! What's with all this crying and wailing? Even when it's goodbye, you should say goodbye with style!"

Zeff wiped away his tears and shouted to the crowd.

Soon after, the Dream Chaser set sail against the wind, and Goku and Sanji stood on the ship waving and shouting:

Goodbye, everyone!

"You little rascals! See you later!"

......

......

On the shimmering sea, a small boat is speeding forward.

On the small boat, Nami stood at the bow, gazing ahead, her mind racing with countless thoughts.

Eight years ago, the Arlong Pirates invaded and occupied their village, demanding protection money from them based on the number of people.

At that time, she and Nojiko's adoptive mother, Bellemere, sacrificed themselves because they couldn't raise enough protection money, couldn't say they didn't have children, and wanted them to continue to survive on the island. They were brutally killed by Arlong, the leader of the Arlong Pirates.

After the evil dragon killed Bellemere, he discovered Nami's exceptional talent for drawing nautical charts. He then forced her to draw nautical charts for him on the condition that he could redeem the village for 100 million Berries.

From then on, at the tender age of ten, she was forced to become a member of the Arlong Pirates, painstakingly drawing nautical charts for her mother's killer.

Not only that, she also single-handedly shouldered the immense responsibility of liberating the village from the Arlong Pirates, embarking on the arduous path of stealing pirate treasures and earning 100 million Berries.

Over the past eight years, she has endured countless hardships and faced numerous life-or-death crises before gradually accumulating immense wealth.

She never imagined that she would collect her 100 million Berries so easily today, allowing her to finally redeem the village from the evil dragon.

"Wukong, thank you so much for everything these past few days, really..."

She unconsciously smiled, as if the adorable figure who initially made her grit her teeth, but later deeply moved her, and even whom she genuinely liked, appeared before her eyes.

She never dreamed that in the final stages of collecting 100 million Berries, she would encounter such a kind-hearted partner who was willing to risk his life to help her.

So much so that the last few peals she lacked were collected much more easily than before, and she also felt an immense warmth she hadn't felt in the past eight years.

For her, Wukong is already one of the most important people in her life. She is grateful to him, trusts him, doesn't want anything to happen to him, and hopes that she can set sail with him to help him find his family, pursue his dreams, and also pursue her own dreams.

However, to achieve the latter, she must first accomplish one thing: redeem the village from the dragon's clutches.

"Evil dragon, I've brought you 100 million Berries. You'll keep your promise, right?"

She glanced at the treasure on the ship, her fists clenching tightly without her even realizing it.

She knew all too well that pirates were often fickle and treacherous, and that someone as extremely wicked as Arlong might also be like that.

But what could she do?

She had only this one chance, and if she didn't seize it tightly, she would have no way to free the village from their grasp or herself from their control.

So now, she can only hope that the other party will keep his promise and, after receiving the 100 million Berries she has collected, will no longer control the village or prevent her from drawing nautical charts for it, so that she can become truly free, return to the Dream Chaser, and chase the Grand Line with Goku.

As she drifted into a state of reverie, alternating between worry, anxiety, and a hopeful smile, the silhouette of the Dream Chaser gradually approached her from behind, without her knowledge.

"Hey! Sanji, I see Nami!"

On the bow of the monkey-headed boat, Goku stood up, pointed ahead, and shouted to Sanji.

"Really!"

Sanji, who was holding the helm, rushed out of the cabin and looked ahead.

Before long, he cupped his hands in front of his face, and his eyes turned into two red hearts.

"Ah~~ that graceful figure, it's definitely Nami-san!"

After leaving Baratie, the two piloted the Dream Chaser in pursuit of Nami's direction.

Because Nami was driving a relatively slow small boat, they were able to catch up with their pursuer after a chase that lasted for more than an hour.

As they drew closer to Nami and could clearly see each other's figures, they both shouted in unison:

"Hey! Nami—!!"

"Nami-san!! I've come to find you!!"

Nami, who was lost in thought, suddenly heard two voices and thought she was hallucinating.

But as the two voices continued to come, she turned around and saw Goku and Sanji waving at her frantically.

For a moment, she froze on the spot, her mouth moved but she couldn't say anything.

Why are you here?
