The Great Voyage: I Became Nami's Brother at the Start

Doesn't your World Government occupy the Red Line?

Haha! Dude, I'll build a Red Island and make you guys furious!

Norton pulled Daramiy along, and Daramiy then used a walkie-talkie to summon a large number of Agriculture Department officials, as well as a large group of professional farmers.

Over the years, Darami has become very familiar with his king's temperament.

The fact that he was so enthusiastically pulling me along meant there must be some good agricultural project to be done.

A group of about a thousand people quickly arrived at the center of Red Island.

After seeing the state of the island, Darami shook his head. What could be done in such a barren place?

But when Norton waved his hand, twenty bags of Golden Fertilizer appeared before everyone's eyes, and Darami immediately understood.

Before Norton could even speak, Daramiy's expression turned excited at just one glance at the familiar packaging.

"Your Majesty, this...this is still the kind of fertilizer that can improve soil quality, right?" Darami walked over, his hands trembling as he reached for the fertilizer bag.

“That’s right!” Norton walked over and nodded. “However, this fertilizer is much more powerful than the last one! Just one bag of this fertilizer can improve two hundred acres of land, so you need to plan how to use it carefully! This island has an area of ​​nearly 20,000 square kilometers, which is about 30 million acres.”

Chapter 157 That's it? How boring!

"Oh, and there's another reason I brought you to the center of the island," Norton patted the fertilizer bag and chuckled, "This stuff, after being used, can slowly improve the surrounding unfertilized soil."

Upon hearing this, Darami's mind immediately began to conjure up various formulas and calculations.

Twenty bags of Jin Ke La (a type of fertilizer) can improve 4,000 mu (approximately 267 hectares) of land, and these 4,000 mu can also improve the surrounding land.

Then we need to distribute these 4,000 acres of land in a planned way to maximize the effect of improving the land.

Norton patted the dazed Darami on the shoulder and turned to leave.

This is Darami's area of ​​expertise; he doesn't need to concern himself with it.

"I wonder how Luffy is doing. If nothing unexpected happened, the accident should have already occurred. Oh well, whatever!"

Back at the palace, Norton got busy.

……

Somewhere in the East China Sea.

Yes! Norton was absolutely right!

He can change Luffy's strength, making him invincible in the world ahead of time, thus smoothing out the first half of the Grand Line.

However, accidents are an unknown thing that Norton cannot change.

Luffy, something's happened!

The little boat's fate remained as tragic as ever; it was destroyed.

In a moment of desperation, Luffy hid inside a wooden barrel and was then pulled aboard by a merchant ship.

Later, Alvida boarded the ship with her iron rod, and everything went smoothly until then.

The problem arose after Luffy met Coby, and the beating he received from Alvida and her crew left them questioning their existence.

This time, Luffy didn't even use his Devil Fruit powers; he just used his normal physical skills to overwhelm them and make them jump into the sea.

Then the Navy arrived, and Luffy and Coby stole a small boat and escaped the scene, arriving at the Navy branch base where Zoro had been captured.

"Hey, Luffy, why do you have to go there... It's a naval base, it's dangerous." Coby was still trying to stop Luffy.

Luffy grinned: "Hehe... First, I made a promise to someone that I would find my crew and then come to pick her up. Second, finding strong partners is the only way to become the Pirate King, right?"

"Ugh... God, I just can't do anything with you... What great treasure? Do you think you can just casually say things like 'One Piece'?" With the Marine base just ahead, Coby gave up.

After landing on the island, the two discovered the unusual situation and then went to the base to meet Zoro.

OK, there are no problems up to this point!

The situation changed when Luffy found Zoro's three swords and discovered that Coby was about to be killed at the execution ground.

"Second gear!"

Seeing that the distance was a bit far, Luffy immediately activated Gear Second and appeared in front of the Marines in a flash.

This time, he didn't even wait for the navy to open fire before standing in front of everyone and throwing a punch.

"Machine gun!"

He gave a cold, light shout.

"What?!"

"Wow--"

With just one punch, all of Monca's men were instantly knocked to the ground.

Monka was utterly shocked, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Zoro, upon seeing this, must have been astonished, his mouth agape.

"Who...who exactly are you...?"

"Hehe... I'm Luffy, the man who's going to become the Pirate King!"

Luffy turned around, smiled, and announced his name.

Zoro rolled his eyes: "Hey... do you know what you're saying?"

Luffy took off three swords and handed them over: "Of course I know! Here, I got your swords back, but I didn't know which one was yours, so I brought them all!"

"All three are mine, because I am a three-sword style swordsman." Zoro exhaled, suddenly feeling a bit ironic, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Luffy was stunned for two seconds, then laughed again and said, "Then it's settled, be my partner! Anyway, you've already caused a huge scene with me here, there's no turning back!"

Zoro chuckled helplessly, "You... are you perhaps the son of a demon? Oh well, since I'm bound to die here anyway, I might as well join you!"

"Great! I have a partner! Yo-ho..." Luffy cheered excitedly.

"Go! Don't stand there, take him down!" Monka couldn't stand it anymore and immediately ordered the navy behind him to charge.

"Hey, hurry up!" Zoro got impatient when he saw Luffy still slowly untying the ropes.

"Ah... Luffy... They're charging at us!" Coby screamed in terror, covering his head.

"Don't worry, it's not a big problem." Luffy handed the sword to Zoro, turned to look at the Marines, and crouched down slightly to get into position.

"Rubber, rubbery—"

when--

Just as the marines swung their swords down, Zoro cut the ropes and placed his sword in front of Luffy.

"pistol!"

The next second, Luffy also completed his attack.

Enveloped in Armament Haki, the weapon passed through the gaps in the navy's defenses and struck at Mengka.

"What?!"

Monka was startled and was about to use his large axe to block.

when--

Click...

The punch was blocked, but Morgan's axe was also shattered by Luffy's punch.

“This…how is this possible?” Monka was dumbfounded.

"These guys are yours, Zoro!" Luffy withdrew his fist and looked at Zoro.

"Just what I wanted!" Zoro sneered, and with a sudden burst of strength, he deflected all the Navy's swords.

Luffy seized the opportunity to jump over, and kicked Morgan while still in mid-air.

"This……"

Morgan didn't even have a chance to react before Luffy's sudden kick, still imprinted with Armament Haki, landed on his face.

Suddenly, he felt as if his head had been hit by a car. His eyes rolled back, and he collapsed to the ground, motionless.

"What? You're done already? How boring!" Luffy adjusted his straw hat with boredom, and he inexplicably began to miss the time when he sparred with Norton and got thrashed.

(P.S.: This foreshadows Luffy's frustration at not being able to unleash his full potential; those he encounters later are in for a rough time!)

Seeing this, the other naval personnel simply abandoned their attack and cheered instead.

Luffy and his crew then realized why Morgan and his crew were so disliked.

At this point, Zoro, the first mate, is acquired!

"So, what was that attack you launched earlier?" Zoro asked, recalling Luffy's earlier attack.

"Ah, that's called Haki, Armament Haki!" Luffy said while eating, raising his left hand and arming it: "Try cutting it with your sword."

Zoro frowned, thought for a moment, and then obediently swung his sword to strike.

"Ah...no...!" Koby cried out in fright.

when--

The next second, Zoro's sword landed on Luffy's arm, but it didn't hurt him at all.

"See that? That's Armament Haki! Mastering it not only increases your attack power but also your defense. I have the Gum-Gum Fruit, so my body is basically immune to everything, but I still can't defend against slashes and spikes. After learning Armament Haki, I won't be afraid anymore! Hehe..." Luffy laughed smugly as he spoke.

Chapter 158 They want war, so we'll fight!

He was recalling the astonished expressions on Ace and Sabo's faces when he first mastered Armament Haki.

Because he was the first of the three brothers to master it.

Aside from the fact that Luffy trained with Norton for a longer period of time, his talent is undeniable.

"Can I learn it too?" Zoro's eyes lit up as he looked at Luffy.

"Ah! Sure! I'll teach you when I have time!" Luffy nodded with a smile.
