One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

Chapter 176 The Thunder of the Revolutionary Army! The Boy's Kick and Shipbuilding Funds

The mornings in the City of Water should be peaceful and serene.

But at this moment...

"Eh—!!"

"The Revolutionary Army?! That man wanted by the World Government, known as the 'World's Most Heinous Criminal'?!"

"You must be kidding me!"

The cigarette in Sanji's mouth fell directly into the coffee cup, and he grabbed his hair and screamed in despair.

"That kind of world-shaking figure... is actually Luffy's father?!"

Chopper was so scared his fur stood on end: "The most vicious criminal... Waaah, are we going to get arrested?"

Usopp hid directly behind Zoro, only sticking out his long nose, his voice trembling:

"Hey...is Luffy's dad some kind of big shot? This joke has gone too far!"

"Won't we be implicated as a result?"

Even Robin, who is usually calm, looked a little pale at this moment.

She put down her coffee cup, looking at Luffy who was still picking his nose with a blank expression, and muttered to herself:

"I see... no wonder."

"No wonder Luffy has that incredible quality, that power that draws people to him."

Robin took a deep breath, calming the shock in his heart:

"Drag... he's the only man who can directly overturn the ideology of the World Government."

"Monkey D. Luffy... This family, is this the 'D clan'? They're all monsters."

Luffy tilted his head, observing everyone's reactions:

"What's wrong, everyone? Is that guy named Long really that powerful?"

"That's your dad!!" the entire group roared in unison.

Just then, footsteps were heard outside the restaurant.

"Excuse me, Vice Admiral Garp."

Two young naval officers walked in.

One of them had long hair and two katana hanging from his waist; he looked somewhat gloomy.

The other was a tall, upright boy with short pink hair and a cloak of justice.

Although his face still looked childish, his eyes were incredibly resolute.

The pink-haired boy walked up to Garp, then turned to Luffy and Zoro, stood at attention, saluted, and spoke in a loud voice:

"Long time no see! Mr. Luffy! Mr. Zoro!"

Luffy and Zoro were stunned, staring at the two marines for a long time.

Luffy squinted, looking the masked, long-haired man up and down, when suddenly an idea struck him. He pointed at the man and shouted:

"Ah!! I remember now!!"

"You're that kid with the butt chin!!"

"puff!"

The long-haired man—Helmeppo—had veins bulging on his forehead, his defenses instantly crumbling. He removed his mask and roared:

"Who's the butt chin?! I'm Helmeppo!!"

"And why did they only recognize me?! The point is, it's Koby!!"

"Koby?"

Luffy and Zoro looked at the pink-haired boy with a puzzled expression.

The boy shyly removed his headscarf, revealing his signature short pink hair and round-framed glasses.

Although she has grown quite a bit taller, her shy smile remains unchanged:

"It's me, Mr. Luffy. I'm Coby."

"Huh?!!!!"

Luffy and Zoro's eyeballs popped out again, their jaws almost smashing through the floor:

"You're that...that short, stout Koby?!"

"How did you grow so tall?! And you're not fat anymore! You're like a completely different person!!"

Zoro was also incredulous: "You're that crybaby from the East Blue? That's quite a change!"

Koby scratched his head and smiled sheepishly:

"Hehe... Training under Vice Admiral Garp was tough, but I did grow a lot."

At this point, Koby's eyes suddenly sharpened.

He looked at Luffy, took a deep breath, and his tone carried a hint of pleading and fighting spirit:

"Um... Mr. Luffy."

"It may be presumptuous of me, but could you... perhaps have a friendly spar with me?"

"I want to show you the results of my spiritual practice during this time!"

……

A few minutes later, in the courtyard of Carrera headquarters.

The Straw Hat crew and the Marines formed a circle, with Luffy and Coby standing opposite each other in the open space in the middle.

"Bring it on, Koby."

Luffy adjusted his straw hat, a relaxed smile on his face.

"Yes! Then I won't stand on ceremony!"

Koby took a deep breath, and his leg muscles tensed instantly.

"call……"

The next second, he stomped his feet on the ground with a speed as fast as a pile driver.

"shave!"

Swish!

Koby's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

"Disappeared?!"

Nami and Chopper, who were watching, exclaimed in surprise, "So fast! It's almost impossible to see with the naked eye!"

This speed is exactly the same as the CP9 we encountered before.

"Behind them!" Zoro's eyes narrowed.

Almost at the same time, Coby appeared in mid-air behind Luffy.

His right leg rose high like a battle axe, whistling through the air, and kicked hard at Luffy's shoulder.

"Got it!" Koby thought to himself.

however.

Luffy didn't even turn around; his relaxed smile remained on his face.

Just as Coby's toe was about to touch Luffy's shoulder, Luffy's body tilted slightly to the side.

"call--"

The powerful kick grazed Luffy's red vest and landed on empty air.

"What...?!" Koby's pupils contracted.

Before he could change his move, a hand shot out like lightning and firmly grabbed his ankle.

"Too slow, Koby."

Luffy chuckled and flicked his arm lightly.

"Whoa!!"

Coby felt like a rag doll, effortlessly tossed aside by Luffy.

He did several somersaults in the air, barely adjusting his posture using the "Moonwalk" technique, and launched another attack after landing.

"It's not over yet!!"

Coby gritted his teeth, his figure once again blurring into afterimages as he unleashed a furious barrage of attacks on Luffy.

Shave, finger gun, storm kick...

Although I'm not an expert yet, I'm already showing some promise.

However, Luffy acted as if he were playing with the neighborhood kid.

He didn't even use his Devil Fruit powers, relying solely on his physical skills and the intuition honed through countless life-or-death battles to maneuver and dodge within a limited space.

After more than ten rounds.

"Ha ha……"

Koby was panting heavily and covered in sweat; his movements finally slowed down.

"Is it... still not working...?"

Just as he was about to launch his final attack, a hand suddenly reached out and pressed down on his head.

"Bang."

Luffy laughed and rubbed Coby on the ground a couple of times, just like before:

"Hahaha! You've gotten stronger, Coby!"

"If it were before, you would have been crying by now!"

Koby was stunned, and then his eyes reddened.

He wiped the dust off his face, got up from the ground, and stood up straight.

He looked at the still strong and optimistic man in front of him, his eyes glistening with tears.

"Mr. Luffy..."

Koby clenched his fist and shouted:

"I know I'm still a long way off... but!"

"I will become stronger! I will work my hardest!!"

"One day...one day, I will become a Marine Admiral!!!"

"And then... I'll capture you myself on the high seas!!!!"

This vow resounded throughout the courtyard.

"hiss--"

The surrounding naval soldiers turned pale with fright.

He actually said he wanted to arrest Garp's grandson in front of him?

And the target is a general?

However, Luffy was not angry.

He adjusted his straw hat, looked at Koby, and flashed his signature confident smile:

"Okay! I'll be waiting!"

"If you want to catch me, then go ahead and try!"

"But I won't get caught... because I'll become the Pirate King!!!"

"Hahahahahahaha!!!!"

Garp, who had been sitting on the side eating senbei and watching the show, suddenly burst into laughter.

"What are they all talking about in their sleep?!"

Garp walked over, and with a wave of his hand, almost shoved Koby into the ground:

"Want to be the Pirate King? Want to be an Admiral? You're a hundred years too early."

"Coby! Go back and double your training!!"

Although he said that, Garp couldn't hide the satisfaction in his eyes.

Finally, Garp said that since Luffy is his grandson, he would let it go this time.

He not only let the Straw Hat crew go, but also very "responsibly" led his subordinates away.

He went to repair the wall that he had just damaged.

"Phew... They're finally gone."

Nami slumped in her chair: "There's not a single normal person in this family."

She decided that after she and Victor had children, education would be their top priority!

The crisis is over.

Luffy immediately reverted to his true nature, frantically banging the bowl with his knife and fork:

"Meat! Meat!! I want meat!! Take out all the meat we didn't finish earlier!!"

Just as everyone was getting back into the boisterous atmosphere of the banquet, celebrating their survival.

No one noticed that Viktor quietly left the crowd.

He was carrying several heavy, large black suitcases, which represented all their wealth.

Victor glanced at the bustling restaurant, then turned and walked towards the backstreets of Water City.

Frankie's House.

Although it had been mostly dismantled by the Straw Hat crew and Carrera's foreman.

But Franky is a top-notch craftsman, and he has almost finished repairing it in the past few days.

"Crunch."

Victor pushed open the door and entered.

Inside the room, Franky was hunched over a table covered with blueprints, scribbling and drawing with a pen in his hand and a nail dangling from his mouth.

Seeing Victor enter, Franky looked up and adjusted his sunglasses:

"Hey, red-eyed lad. Aren't you going to the banquet?"

Victor didn't waste any words.

He walked straight to the huge drawing table and threw the heavy suitcases onto the drawings.

"Bang! Bang!"

The dull thud made the table shake.

"What is this?" Franky was taken aback.

Victor reached out and unlocked the box, then lifted the lid.

"Splash—"

The golden light and the reflection of the green banknotes instantly illuminated the somewhat dim room.

There were neatly arranged Pelepes, and several high-purity gold bricks brought down from the Sky Island.

"ha?!"

The nail fell out of Franky's mouth, his sunglasses slipped down to the tip of his nose, and he stared dumbfounded at the table full of money:

"How much...how much is this?!"

"500 million peles."

Viktor pulled a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep drag.

Then he leaned against the doorframe, looking at Franky through the swirling smoke:

"This contains all our savings."

"What do you mean by this, buddy?" Franky frowned.

"If it's for compensation for the house and my employees' medical expenses, this is far too much."

"That counts as part of it, mainly the shipbuilding commission fee."

Victor walked up to Franky and placed his hand on the pile of money:

"Frankie".

"I know you have that thing... the strongest wood in the world—"

"The Treasure Tree Adam".

Franky's pupils constricted sharply: "How did you know...?"

"I'm an intelligence agent, don't ask why."

Viktor interrupted him, his dark eyes seeming to see right through people:

"I want you to buy that tree."

"Five hundred million Berries, using the finest materials, the most outrageous design, plus your revolutionary modification technology."

Viktor turned his head and looked out the window at the vast sea:

"For my captain... no, for the future Pirate King."

"Build a dream ship that can cross ten thousand waves, ignore any storm, and reach the ends of the earth, Laugh Tale..."

There was silence in the room.

Franky looked at the boxes of money, then at Victor's eyes, which were filled with ambition and trust.

a long time.

"Oh……"

Franky suddenly laughed.

He pushed his sunglasses back into place, and his blue pompadour seemed to stand even taller.

"This is truly... an impossible request to refuse."

"Five hundred million Berries...that's just enough to buy that tree."

Franky slammed his hand on the table, sending the banknotes flying.

"Listen up, you bespectacled guy!"

"Since you have such good taste, then I, the great one, will take this order!!"

"I will build a super battleship that will terrify the entire world!!"

"Just you wait and see!! SUPER————!!!!"

Seeing Franky's fiery expression, Victor's lips curled up slightly.

"Ah, I'll wait."

"Don't keep us waiting too long, shipwright."
