Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 324 Moving Islands: There are only zero times or countless times!

"A new world!?"

Kidd's gloomy expression vanished instantly, and he answered first, his face beaming with excitement.

"Captain! You mean we're strong enough to enter the New World now?"

Every pirate—except for those who are just playing house—is interested in the New World.

The Great Pirate Era has been going on for nearly twenty years.

Even the mountain bandits in the remote corners of the East Blue know that Roger became the Pirate King in the New World!

The New World, the final island, is the place that every pirate who dreams of becoming the Pirate King longs for and yearns for.

Kidd was no exception.

"To be honest, that's not the case."

A red light flashed in Storm's eyes as he quietly activated his Observation Haki and sensed the aura strength of all the members present.

Compared to when he last left the North Blue, the aura strength of the members of the Storm Pirates gathered on Downs Island has increased to varying degrees.

The one who made the most significant progress was none other than Nami, who had eaten the Cloud-Cloud Fruit!

But the other members.

For example, the aura intensity emitted by Ace, Kid, and Law is only slightly increased.

In other words.

The abilities of these three individuals have remained virtually unchanged recently.

The Storm Pirates are still too weak...

The storms of the New World are still too fierce for the Storm Pirates at their current level.

but.

Storm paused, then added.

"We can stay in Beihai; there aren't any suitable opponents for us there."

The strength of the New World is too high for the Storm Pirates.

However, the strength of the North Sea is too low for the Storm Pirates.

Honestly.

If Storm led the Storm Pirates from the North Blue, sailed into Paradise, and then sailed all the way from Paradise to the New World...

This is the real journey of a pirate's growth.

But who can blame him when Storm has now become the Pirate Emperor?

The Red-Haired Pirates did indeed go to the East Blue and "lie dormant" for one to two years after they became famous.

However, after the Red-Haired Pirates became the Emperor Pirates, their main area of ​​activity became the New World!

Unless a world-class event like the Marineford War occurs.

Otherwise.

The Pirate Emperor would never leave the New World easily, not even to Paradise.

Let Storm lead the Storm Pirates on a journey from the four seas to Paradise and then to the New World...

That's so inappropriate!

"In addition, I made a trip to the Germa Kingdom before coming here."

"Stromb said calmly."

"Kuma, Bonnie, and Robin, the three of them have decided to come with me to the New World."

That's right!

The Storm Pirates on Downs Island were not all present.

Kuma, Robin, and the others are still staying in the Germa Kingdom.

Those who came to Downs Island to wipe out the remnants of the Don Quixote family were all "energetic" crew members.

Storm's words were not a lie.

He had indeed discussed the plan to go to the New World with Kuma and Robin.

The only reason that Kuma and Bonnie, this father and daughter, stayed in the North Sea was because the Germa Kingdom possessed the means to cure "Jade Scales".

However, Vinsmoke Judge's treatment methods mainly came from Vegapunk's off-field assistance.

Now that Storm has "recruited" Vegapunk, there's no need to leave Kuma, Bonney, and the others in the North Sea anymore.

Storm plans to send Kuma and Bonney to Punk Hazard so that Vegapunk can personally treat Bonney.

It was just something I did on the spur of the moment!

As for Robin...

The archaeologist had always been thinking about entering a new world.

To be precise, Robin has always wanted to go to the world's number one superpower—Elbaf!

Because Haguwar D. Sauro is currently living in seclusion in Elbaf!

Robin accepted Storm's invitation to "enter the New World" without hesitation.

Robin is currently packing her luggage in the Sky Garden.

There's really nothing to clean up.

Because Storm plans to move the Sky Garden directly from the North Sea to the New World!

Just like when he moved this floating island from the New World to the North Sea.

Everyone agreed to Storm's suggestion without hesitation.

After all, as Storm said.

The North Blue can no longer put any pressure on the members of the Storm Pirates.

The Storm Pirates crave more worthy opponents!

"In that case, let's leave together!"

Storm extended his right hand, gesturing for everyone to board the Blue-Eyes White Dragon together.

"Luo, have the people aboard the Polar Submarine prepare for going to space."

"Wait a minute, Captain."

Luo adjusted his hat and pointed to Downs Island behind him.

"Nami and Perona just 'conquered' this island, shouldn't we collect some 'spoils'?"

Law is also a rather traditional pirate.

Luo had no psychological burden regarding the matter of "plundering".

Not to mention the remnants of the Don Quixote family's forces that plundered them!

"I learned some things from Robin before I came. This island is Donquixote Family territory in the North Blue, right?"

Storm glanced in the direction of Downs Island and roughly estimated its size.

Are there any ordinary people on the island? You mean people who have nothing to do with the Don Quixote family but live on this island?

"If it were before, it existed; but after the Don Quixote family was destroyed, it no longer did."

Luo answered seriously.

Downs Island was originally the Don Quixote family's first territory in the North Sea.

"Donquixote Doflamingo and his pirate crew were defeated by their captain..."

"Those who remain on this Downs Island now are all pirates most loyal to the Donquixote Family; there are no innocents among them."

If there are innocent people among them.

Nami and Perona wouldn't have attacked so recklessly just now.

The Storm Pirates were, after all, a pirate crew founded by Storm himself, and everyone knew the captain's rules.

We must never bully civilians, and we must never harm the innocent.

Although this rule is very "un-pirate".

But since it was the captain's order, everyone obeyed it.

"In that case, there's no need to waste time cleaning up the loot!"

Storm flicked his fingers, and two emerald green leaves flew from his fingertips, transforming into two figures in mid-air.

"Let's just take the island with us!"

"W-what?"

The moment Storm said those words, Law immediately began to doubt his ears.

The other members also showed expressions of shock.

Only Nami, who had witnessed Storm "moving" the anthill hell firsthand, was slightly better off.

Before the Storm Pirates' questions could be answered, everyone's attention was drawn to two newly appeared figures.

The man with long golden hair was familiar to everyone present—though Law was somewhat unfamiliar with him, he knew his identity through the bounty poster—the Golden Lion II, a super pirate with a bounty of over 20 billion Berries!

But the middle-aged man with short black hair, blind, and wearing a long robe...

No one present recognized him.

But soon everyone witnessed the skill of this seemingly ordinary blind uncle.

[Bake-tanuki Fruit] Version - Yixiao slowly drew the fake Supreme Grade Sword [Black Path Fireline] from his hand. Strands of deep purple light flew out from the blade of his sword and flew directly into the interior of Downs Island.

The [Bake-tanuki Fruit] can not only replicate the appearance of the target, but also replicate their power!

While it's impossible to achieve a one-to-one replica—the ability of such a "copy" is ultimately weaker than the original.

However, Storm's [Bake-tanuki Fruit] has at least been developed to the sixth level.

The "Replica of Itshou," created by the six-star [Bake-tanuki Fruit], released a gravity wave that directly covered the entire Downs Island and precisely targeted the pirates on the island who had been dealt with by Nami and Perona beforehand.

It's like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

The clone, Yixiao, swept its gravitational wave across Downs Island, directly clearing out the "unrelated personnel" on the island.

On the other side...

The clone Ryan also set foot on the land of Downs Island.

The "original" Ryan was left in Totto Land by Storm to control the island of Punk Hazard.

However, the version of Ryan with the [Bake-Bake-Bake Fruit] can also use the [Float-Float Fruit] ability!

Rumbling--

It was accompanied by a deafening roar.

Downs Island took flight under the control of the clone Ryan's abilities.

However, due to the limitations of the clones' abilities, the floating process of Downs Island appeared shaky and unstable.

Storm frowned and released a ribbon of flame.

This is no ordinary cloud of flames.

These are the fiery cloud ribbons that come with the [Crimson Dragon Fruit]!

The fiery cloud ribbons wrapped around Downs Island, stabilizing the island which had been swaying slightly, and propelled it into the sky.

at the same time.

The clone, Issho, used the power of the "Heavy Fruit" to control the Polar Submarine and take the submarine into the sky.

"Wow, that's amazing..."

"Is this the captain's method...?"

"An island...an island just flew up into the air..."

"We flew up too... This chubby old man is so scary..."

The members of the Storm Pirates all showed expressions of shock.

Even though everyone had already seen the Sky Garden.

But this kind of operation—drafting an island directly from the sea—is...

The members of the Storm Pirates were still greatly shocked when they saw it.

These are tactics I don't understand at all!

"I won't go into too much detail about Ryan."

Storm raised his finger and pointed at the Golden Lion II, then pointed to the man beside him who was smiling calmly.

"Although... we'd still like to introduce ourselves to everyone beforehand."

"This is Mr. Yixiao, my latest recruited subordinate."

"By the way, Mr. Ichisho will be joining the Navy."

"Just like Nami."

Hearing Storm's last words.

All the other members' eyes were focused on Nami.

Nami couldn't help but stick out her index finger, looking completely bewildered, and point it at herself.

"I?"
