Starting as a working person from Naruto

Chapter 379 All irrelevant personnel, leave. What follows is not for you to participate in. Lieutenant, you leave too!

"That guy..."

Nico Robin, who had been sitting on the ground in despair, turned around in disbelief to look at the figure at the palace gate when she heard Straw Hat Luffy's declaration.

Everyone on this ocean knows that Bucky the Clown has been to the end of the Grand Line. Does that Straw Hat boy think he hasn't been there and therefore question Bucky's authority?

however…

What Luffy said planted another seed in Robin's heart.

Just as the red-haired boy from the mysterious Konoha Pirates said, if you want to know the truth of this world, you should go to Laugh Tale and see for yourself!

certainly…

Buggy the Clown definitely doesn't approve of Luffy.

"asshole…"

Buggy the Clown was immediately enraged by Luffy's words.

That straw hat kid is such a persistent and annoying ghost!

Bucky the Clown is always mindful of his imposing image and hates being humiliated, especially when he feels like his lies have been exposed!

His face was a mixture of shame and anger: "You brat, stop spouting nonsense here! You and that bastard Shanks are both just idiots who don't understand pirates!"

Bucky the Clown was also a little panicked...

Because he was just talking nonsense...

Bucky the Clown had a brilliant idea: he had to collect enough treasure and gold to get there first in the future!

If I build a golden stele that is even taller than the one in front of me, then everything I just said will be true, and everyone will believe that I have been to Laugh Tale. I won't have to worry about anyone finding out that I'm lying!

but…

Let's take down that straw hat kid in front of us!

"I'll kill you first!"

Buggy the Clown remembered being defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates in the East Blue, drew his sword, and charged toward the palace entrance!

A cloud of white mist suddenly appeared behind Luffy!

The white mist drifted in instantly, enveloping Bucky the Clown's body!

"This is…"

Bucky the Clown immediately recalled his ordeal in Loguetown. Looking at the white mist drifting in from outside the Golden Palace, he trembled with fear: "Oh no, it's that Marine who uses smoke!"

"snort…"

"Bucky the Clown, this is the third time I've caught you..."

Marine Captain Smoker slowly emerged from behind Luffy, and with a wave of his hand, he used his Logia-type Devil Fruit ability to capture Buggy the Clown!

Smoker and Luffy were already working together to fight Crocodile, and they arrived at this golden palace while chasing Crocodile!

In Loguetown, Smoker captured Buggy once, but Orochimaru rescued him; in the port city of Alabasta, Smoker captured Buggy a second time, but Mr. 3 Gal Dino rescued him; this golden dungeon is where he captured Buggy for the third time!

"Release Captain Bucky at once!"

"Quickly rescue Captain Buggy, and kill that Marine and Straw Hat Boy!"

The Buggy Pirates charged straight towards Smoker and Straw Hat Luffy!

Smoker didn't tolerate the pirates' behavior. He once again emitted a large cloud of smoke, which enveloped the path to the Golden Palace, binding the pirates to the spot with the white mist!

The Buggy Pirates are just a minor problem.

The real big trouble...

It's still those guys in the golden palace...

Smoker stood beside Straw Hat Luffy, his gaze sweeping across the Golden Palace. He too had spotted his target, Crocodile…

only…

Crocodile seems to have some new developments.

Crocodile, the powerful Shichibukai of Alabasta, is actually hanging out with this pirate crew. I wonder what happened between them...

Crocodile appeared injured and weak, crouching in a corner of the dungeon, with only Mr. 1 Daz Bones by his side…

"They're all dangerous people..."

Smoker's heart skipped a beat. He didn't recognize the others, but he immediately recognized the man standing next to Crocodile as Orochimaru, who had defeated him with poisonous fog in Loguetown last time!

"That guy's here too!"

Smoker reached for the Jitte weapon on his back, his eyes suddenly turning sharp, clearly wanting to take revenge on Orochimaru!

but…

The Konoha Pirates wouldn't let him do that!

As Smoker transformed into smoke and charged toward Orochimaru, Luffy also leaped up, his target Crocodile!

Bang!

The two members of the Konoha Pirates charged forward simultaneously!

Smoker and Straw Hat Luffy were simultaneously blocked by Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju. The Marine Captain and Straw Hat Luffy were both sent flying backwards and crashed out of the underground palace!

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju gave chase at the same time!

"Inflammation is on the rise!"

However, a flame suddenly appeared at the entrance of the underground palace, stopping their pursuit and sealing all the pirates inside!

A figure appeared and saved Straw Hat Luffy!

"Ace! You escaped!"

A look of joy flashed across Luffy's face!

Because in the Alabasta canal, Ace was suddenly captured by Marine Admiral Aokiji in one blow, and Luffy was secretly searching for information about Aokiji in order to rescue Ace!

"yes…"

Ace, wearing a hat, stood in front of his younger brother, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said, "Aokiji's ice blocks can't hold me..."

In fact…

Ace was in a rather dangerous situation at the time.

Because Aokiji suddenly launched a full-scale attack on the river in Alabasta, Ace, in the confined space, could not ignore his brother's safety and tried to use his Logia-type ability to withstand the attack, resulting in him being captured by the Marine Admiral.

fortunately…

The navy did not keep a close watch on him.

Aokiji couldn't keep an eye on him the whole time, so he handed him over to the naval lieutenant and the red-haired female naval officer to watch over. Ace simply used flames to thaw the ice on his body and left. A naval lieutenant and a sergeant major certainly couldn't stop him...

As Ace left, he overheard the conversation between the Marine lieutenant and the female Marine. They were talking about Crocodile and Straw Hat Luffy, and that the Marine Admirals had gathered to wipe out all the pirates in the Golden Palace...

After making some inquiries at the Alabasta royal palace, Ace, guided by Nami, hurried towards the golden palace, hoping to rescue his younger brother Luffy…

Now it seems...

I might have arrived a little early; the rumored Marine Admirals haven't gathered yet, but there are actually quite a few pirates gathered in this golden palace...

"Didn't we tell you to leave Alabasta?"

Ace looked at Luffy and urged his younger brother to leave quickly: "Grandpa will be here soon, he definitely won't let you go..."

"It's not like Grandpa would let Ace go..."

Upon hearing this, Luffy picked his nose in dissatisfaction.

Just as the two brothers were chatting here, the wall of fire set up next to the golden palace suddenly split in the middle, and Uchiha Madara was the first to rush out!

Fire Fist Ace charged straight at him!

"Mirror Flame!"

A ball of flame suddenly appeared in Fire Fist Ace's hand, and the moment it landed, it transformed into a huge wall of flames, which once again swept across the sky and burned towards Uchiha Madara!

"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

Madara Uchiha opened his mouth and spat out a ball of blazing flames, which transformed into a wave of fire that swept away the enemy!

Two waves of fire in the desert quickly intertwined, turning into a continuously expanding and exploding sea of ​​fire in the yellow sand, with sparks flying in all directions!

"Luffy, you go first!"

Fire Fist Ace's expression was very serious as he ordered his younger brother in a deep voice, "This is no longer a battle you can participate in! Leave here immediately!"

"So strong..."

Luffy stared in disbelief at the two clashing with flames!

"Fire Fist Ace is right..."

Smoker glanced at Straw Hat Luffy, a rare moment of reluctance to let a pirate escape. His lower body transformed into a cloud of smoke and he rose into the air: "You're not qualified to participate in this level of battle yet, Straw Hat kid..."

"..."

Luffy frowned and remained silent.

Luffy now knows that this battle is beyond his control. He can't even find the weaknesses of Logia-type Devil Fruits. He finally managed to guess what weaknesses Crocodile's Sand-Sand Fruit might have, and planned to use this opportunity to defeat that guy Crocodile...

Smoker didn't have time to say anything more. He directly rode a cloud of smoke into the battlefield, bypassing the ever-expanding and exploding sea of ​​fire, and rushed towards Uchiha Madara on the other side!

but…

A familiar old rival has come to meet Smoker!

The members of the Konoha Pirates who were inside the Golden Palace also came out one after another. Orochimaru, wielding a Kusanagi sword, met Smoker, who was holding the jitte!

"This time... I won't lose to you again!"

The smoke beneath Smoker instantly condensed, and he gripped his sturdy jitte tightly, blocking Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword. He knew very well why he had lost last time; it was simply that his Smoke-Smoke Fruit ability was perfectly countered by the ability of the person before him…

but…

He's a Navy Captain!

His abilities go far beyond just his Smoke-Smoke Fruit!

"It was such a shame I didn't get your blood last time..."

Orochimaru licked his lips, his eyes greedily fixed on Smoker's body: "This is another good opportunity!"

The words had barely left his mouth!

Both of them used the momentum to retreat, but at the very moment of their retreat, their feet touched the sand and used it to propel them forward again!

In an instant…

The two who had fought each other before were now locked in battle once again!

Orochimaru's Kusanagi sword appeared exceptionally cunning and ruthless, frequently tearing through Smoker's body and leaving bloody marks!

It was obvious to everyone that the Konoha Pirates had the upper hand from the start of the battle. Both Madara Uchiha and Orochimaru were dominating their opponents!

"..."

Straw Hat Luffy broke out in a sweat watching this.

This rookie pirate finally witnessed firsthand how terrifying the battles between true powerhouses on the sea were. Even Ace, whom he had always believed was stronger than himself, was no match for the enemy!

"Straw Hat Luffy".

A woman's voice appeared beside Luffy.

Nico Robin adjusted her hat and slipped out into the crowd as a group of people emerged. She whispered a reminder: "What you should do now is leave immediately. If you're worried Crocodile might still harm Alabasta, don't worry, Crocodile can't cause any more trouble..."

There were indeed many pirates present.

However, Nico Robin still preferred to believe Luffy.

Because the red-haired Sasori of the Red Sand and the Konoha Pirates clearly don't seem like good people; their goal appears to be to obtain historical secrets from 800 years ago to overthrow the World Government or something. They're a group of schemers…

In comparison…

Straw Hat Luffy is just a simple little pirate.

Nico Robin glanced at everyone present and continued in a low voice, "Perhaps it's not too late to leave now. The World Government might send people to destroy Alabasta, and Crocodile, the one who opened the Golden Palace for his own ambition, is definitely doomed..."

"What do you mean?"

Luffy looked at Nico Robin with some surprise.

"The blank century of history is an absolute secret."

Nico Robin recalled her homeland and continued in a deep voice, "There was once an all-knowing island called Ohara, which was destroyed by the World Government simply because it studied that period of history. All the scholars who participated in the research were killed, and there were even some refugees..."

"Alabasta..."

"Perhaps there will be no exception..."

"Everyone present here today who heard that history in the Golden Palace will be wanted by the World Government. They will use ruthless methods to kill all those who know the truth..."

"Now…"

"We must get out of here immediately!"

and so…

Regardless of her…

Even Luffy, the Straw Hat, has to escape quickly!

Once the World Government kills people to cover up secrets, they don't care how many people they kill, nor do they care whether they kill pirates or civilians!

Even if the King of Alabasta eight hundred years ago participated in the founding of the World Government, this kingdom would still be highly likely to be affected and destroyed by the World Government...

Besides, these pirates in front of us must know the truth...

At least…

They are already connected to history from eight hundred years ago!

Naturally, they will become a key target for elimination by the world government!

The Konoha Pirates, the Buggy Pirates, Crocodile, Straw Hat Luffy, Portgas D. Ace, and even myself, who was already studying the Poneglyphs!

World Government…

We will absolutely not let anyone present get away with this!

The only option is to escape as soon as possible, before the news spreads and before others attract the World Government's attention!

Nicole Robin is very clever; she knows how to manipulate others, and she knows this is the best opportunity for them to escape!

"Knowing that some things are dangerous, they still insist on getting involved..."

A languid voice appeared behind Nico Robin, and a tall shadow enveloped her like darkness: "Is it too late to run away now, Nico Robin…?"

Towards the end, the owner of the voice became cold and ruthless, as if they might kill someone at any moment...

"Who are you…"

Luffy looked at the tall man who appeared behind Nico Robin, and a hint of panic appeared in his eyes. He remembered that tall man had kidnapped Ace on the Going Merry!

"Aokiji..."

Nico Robin's voice trembled as she uttered the Navy codename of the person behind her, her lips almost trembling as she said, "You're here too..."

Many years have passed.

When Aokiji appeared, Ohara's fear resurfaced in Nico Robin's mind like a nightmare, involuntarily reminding her of that tragic day.

From that day on...

Her life then plunged into a dark abyss.

"It's not just me..."

Aokiji didn't make a move immediately, but his gaze became somewhat deep as he looked at an elderly Marine Vice Admiral who appeared behind Straw Hat Luffy.

"Luffy..."

A familiar voice appeared in Luffy's ear.

"Grandpa...Grandpa..."

Luffy's teeth chattered uncontrollably.

"You still remember me..."

Garp, the veteran Marine, didn't hold back either, punching Luffy squarely on the head, sending his own grandson flying. His face was full of anger: "You little bastard, you actually became a pirate, and you even dared to stay in Alabasta at this time!"

"I'm not!"

Straw Hat Luffy's body was thrown out!

The stubborn rookie pirate clutched his head, enduring the heavy blow from Garp's punch, and muttered in dissatisfaction, "I'm going to become the Pirate King!"

"Shut up!"

Garp raised his fist and punched Luffy's body into the desert!

Grandfather and grandson haven't seen each other for many years...

When they met again, they were already enemies!

fortunately…

At this point, Garp was in no mood to continue lecturing his grandson. He even pulled Luffy's body out of the desert and casually threw it on the ground: "I don't have time to argue with you now. I'll deal with you after I've dealt with these troublesome guys..."

This grandson is important…

Another grandson is also very important.

After saying that, Garp's figure disappeared!

This veteran naval officer, fearless of death, charged directly into the battlefield between Madara Uchiha and Ace, punching Fire Fist Ace on the head and sending him flying as he tried to use flames to fight Madara Uchiha!

"Ace!"

"What are you doing here!"

"I was really sad to hear that you've gone to sea to become a pirate..."

Garp looked at Fire Fist Ace, who had been thrown to the ground, and his eyes turned sinister: "You damn brat, you actually joined that old man Whitebeard's pirate crew..."

"That old geezer..."

Fire Fist Ace cursed under his breath, clutching his forehead and frozen in place, still refusing to admit defeat: "I'll make Daddy the Pirate King!"

"You still dare to say that..."

Garp showed no intention of interrupting the fight and leaped forward to charge directly at Fire Fist Ace, wanting to deliver another punch to Ace!

"alright."

A calm voice stopped Vice Admiral Garp from beating up two pirate grandsons.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku, wearing a naval cloak, walked towards them step by step, accompanied by Vice Admiral Tsuru and Admiral Kizaru, with a naval lieutenant and a sergeant following beside him.

Sengoku glanced at Portgas D. Ace, then at Straw Hat Luffy; these two kids were Garp's Achilles' heel...

Sengoku and Garp's friendship had lasted for decades. He knew his old friend's temperament well and didn't want these two troublesome kids to affect the upcoming battle, because he absolutely couldn't let Garp be distracted when facing the Konoha Pirates...

This is also a testament to the wisdom of the Warring States period.

He knew it was impossible to catch Straw Hat Luffy and Fire Fist Ace at this point.

If they really do capture these two kids at this moment, that old man Garp will definitely have to divert some of his attention during the battle…

but…

The Konoha Pirates' fighting strength is quite terrifying!

If Garp isn't focused enough, he might not be a match for his opponent!

Sengoku wanted to turn a blind eye and let Luffy and Ace off the hook for now, and even Buggy's crew and Crocodile for the time being, to prevent more people from finding out about his past interactions with the Konoha Pirates...

In that case...

Perhaps even some of their own people will be driven away.

Sengoku slowly removed his navy cloak and casually tossed it onto the yellow sand. Looking at the Konoha pirates slowly gathering opposite him, his voice grew steady and powerful: "All members of the Navy Headquarters below the rank of colonel have also left..."

"The battle that follows is beyond your control..."

"If you're not careful... you might be killed by the aftershocks of the battle..."

"Yes."

Akihara Kagura directly chose to follow the good advice.

After all, Sengoku's statement was too targeted, and only he and Karin were below the rank of naval captain present.

"..."

Aokiji and Kizaru both remained silent in the face of Sengoku's order.

Especially Admiral Aokiji…

Aokiji originally planned to take advantage of this fierce battle to secretly kill Akihara Kagura, to prevent this Konoha Pirates spy from obtaining the Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit and rising to a higher position in the future...

pity…

This idea was thwarted by the words of the Warring States Marshal.

I'm going to take a nap...
