Chapter 253 Luffy's Free Will, Zoro is Going to Die?

Although Luffy is oblivious

But he could also sense the difference, though he was too clumsy to express it.

It's like the "One Piece" argument during a banquet.

Even Luffy himself doesn't know why he's suddenly so obsessed with the title of Pirate King.

He wanted to be the freest person on this sea.

Only the freest person can be the Pirate King.

But clinging to the title of Pirate King, he was not free at all at that moment!

"How could this happen to me?"

Luffy scratched his head.

I always feel like someone in my head is telling me that I have to become the Pirate King.

Sanji, smoking a cigarette, said, "I've heard that Zoan-type Devil Fruits contain the will of an animal, and if someone has a weak mind, it can interfere with the user's emotions."

"But you ate a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit, right?"

He is the third son of the Vinsmoke family and a genetically modified human.

It's not surprising that the clan members, who were familiar with knowledge about bloodline factors, knew about the secrets of animal fruits.

However, since none of the Straw Hat Pirates have Zoan Devil Fruit users, he has never mentioned it.

Sanji's eyebrows furrowed, unable to figure out why.

Luffy scratched his head and suddenly said, "I ate a Zoan Devil Fruit."

"What?!"

Sanji was stunned and asked, "Didn't you eat the Gum-Gum Fruit?"

Luffy has always displayed the properties of rubber, with his stretchable limbs and rubber body that is impervious to blunt force.

Now you're suddenly telling me you're a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user?

"That's right, the game panel told me that."

On Luffy's game panel, it is marked that the original name of the Gum-Gum Fruit is...

Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Nika form.

Sanji's lips twitched, and he grabbed Luffy by the collar, angrily saying, "Why didn't you tell me such important news sooner?"

Does it matter?

Luffy looked completely innocent; he really hadn't realized how important this message was.

In fact, the fact that the will of a Zoan-type Devil Fruit can interfere with the emotions of its user is very subtle and very few people know about it.

Even those who know about it are mostly skeptical.

Because there are so many people who have eaten Zoan-type Devil Fruits, and their personalities vary greatly, it is impossible to make a comparison to prove it.

Moreover,

Even among Zoan-type Devil Fruits, those capable of interfering with the user's emotions are extremely rare, as most do not possess such a strong will.

"have no idea."

Sanji released him dejectedly and sighed, "The most important thing now is to rescue Moss Head and Nami, but we've all seen how powerful Kaido is, we're no match for him."

"All we need to do is send Kaido flying!"

"I told you I would feed Luffy."

Sanji looked up, about to scold the captain for acting foolishly again, but suddenly stopped.

After making eye contact, they found that Luffy's gaze was very clear and particularly firm.

Luffy took a deep breath and said, "Leave the fight with Kaido to me."

As the protagonist of the One Piece world, even disregarding his destined Devil Fruit, he is still among the top in terms of combat awareness and talent.

Inside the game room,

Fang Yi, who was keeping an eye on the Straw Hat Pirates' situation, said with slight surprise, "Is it because of the belief in saving their comrades that they were temporarily unaffected by Nika's will?"

The carefree Luffy only felt unfree, as if he were shackled.

However, they did not notice anything amiss.

It was the adventurer's declaration and his companions' lack of understanding that made him vaguely feel as if he were being manipulated.

Nika's will also sensed this, and thus became restless.

A fruit destined by fate carries an unchanging destiny; if that destiny is altered, the final result will also disappear.

Luffy was a turning point in the fate of the pirate world, so the consciousness of the pirate world would never tolerate Luffy's reckless ideas.

"Nami left us a code—the emblem of the Kingdom of Oicot. Kaido should be there!"

Luffy and Sanji arrived at the coast.

The place where the Going Merry set sail bears a mark left by Nami herself.

Kaido noticed Nami's little actions, but he didn't stop her, or rather, it would be more accurate to say he disdained to stop her.

If Luffy and Sanji really dare to chase after them, they'll only die.

"Wait, we're partners, aren't we?"

Usopp came running up, panting, and said, "I want to go with you to rescue people too! I want to go out to sea!"

"You'll die."

Luffy looked at Usopp with a serious expression.

Usopp's legs trembled slightly, but he gritted his teeth and said, "I am the great Captain Usopp! I've seen dragons bigger than the entire East Blue, I'm not afraid of Kaido at all!"

The Straw Hat Pirates exposed Kaya's butler, saving the entire village and themselves in the process.

Although he was timid, he did not want to back down at the crucial moment.

I have this feeling that if I back down this time, I will never be able to become a great sea warrior again!

"Okay, let's do it together!"

Luffy suddenly stretched out his arm, grabbed Usopp's neck, and together with Sanji, stumbled and rushed into the relatively spacious small boat.

Heading towards the Kingdom of Oycot.

"Luffy, how do you plan to defeat Kaido?"

"secret!"

Kingdom of Oicot

The largest central town has now been occupied by Kaido and has been planted with the flag of the Beasts Pirates.

Such unbridled behavior is something that no other Yonko crew would ever do.

Because their territories are too vast, the Four Emperors of the New World cannot extend their reach to all seas and would soon be besieged by the Navy. Shanks and Whitebeard disdain such meaningless and bloody endeavors, while Big Mom does so because there is not enough benefit to be gained.

However, Kaido would do that because, for him, the whole world should be destroyed, burning in blood and war.

Cruelty and violence are his true nature.

Inside a makeshift arena,

A group of gladiators surrounded them, including pirates in disheveled attire, marines in tattered uniforms, and even civilians.

Surrounded in the very center are Zoro and Nami, back to back.

Both men were covered in wounds, and blood dripped down their arms, pooling into a red puddle on the ground.

"How is it?"

"We only have two health potions left. If this continues, we can only withstand one more attack!"

Zoro's mouth was full of the taste of blood, and his mouth, which was biting the hilt of his sword, was wriggling with difficulty.

Nami's lips curled into a bitter smile.

She was also at her wit's end, having used up all her reward points and having no more life-restoring potions.

"Kaido, don't you intend to let us live?"

"Among the players captured later were Devil May Cry and Witch Doctor. We are not rare collectibles, and we are unwilling to submit, so of course we will be eliminated."

Nami is very clever and had already figured out Kaido's intentions.

fortunately,

The rest of their crew survived; none of them were captured by Kaido.

Arlong has been defeated by himself, so he probably won't dare to cause trouble for Cocoyasi Village for a while. If possible, I hope Luffy and Sanji can protect Cocoyasi Village for a period of time.

"Charge! Kill them!"

A menacing shout rang out.

Being valued by Kaido, the governor of the Beasts Pirates, and promised a promotion to a true fighter after killing two people, is a coveted position that most people would be willing to work hard for.

After all, a person's reputation is like a tree casting a shadow.

Among the Four Emperors who have already appeared in the East Blue, none are weak. Whitebeard and Shanks are both capable of fighting against the Navy.

That's the strongest force in the One Piece world right now, with power surpassing that of the World Government.

The impending chaos in the world is obvious to everyone.

Joining a powerful faction is the key to survival.
