Konoha: I am Uzumaki Naruto, my comprehension is against the sky

"Coral Harbor is not far from here. We can go there first and try to get more support."

The companions agreed and began to adjust their course towards Coral Harbor.

Luffy, Naruto, Usopp and Tasha came to the secret base of Bubble Bay, a huge cave hidden in the mountains.

The cave was eerie and dark, with faint lights flickering.

They sat around a small wooden table and discussed a plan to rescue Zoro.

"We had to think through every step."

Luffy said in a deep voice.

"Our experience against Murlocs is a crucial advantage."

Naruto nodded in agreement.

"It is because of their spirit of never giving up that we are fighting alongside them today."

Usopp frowned, thinking hard.

"First, we need to ensure that the enemy doesn't discover us. Although Bubble Bay is a secret stronghold, I'm worried about the murloc's powerful sense of smell and perception."

Tasha watched the four of them silently as they discussed the rescue plan and cooperated with precision and tacit understanding.

She witnessed the intelligent and intense conversations among the team and occasionally used her own trump card.

"Zoron is currently imprisoned in the Murloc's cage. We need to act now."

Luffy took a deep breath.

"Tasha is right. We can't delay any longer. Let's work out a specific plan of action now."

Usopp took out the map and spread it out on the table.

"Here's the layout of the Murloc stronghold. The cage is in the center."

He pointed to a location on the map.

Naruto pressed his palms onto the table, staring at the crisscrossing passages on the map.

"First, we need to find a path that leads directly to the cage, and make sure there are no other murlocs guarding it or traps."

Luffy grabbed a wooden chopstick and pointed it at a small hole on the map.

"This entrance may seem like a long detour, but I think if we can enter from there, it will be more conducive to our successful rescue of Zoro."

Usopp nodded in agreement.

"Once we're inside, we have to try to stay hidden. We can use the environment to hide our bodies and smells."

Tasha continued to observe the performance of the four people silently.

She noticed the determination and resolve in each of their brows.

Although this team comes from different worlds, they are able to come together at this critical moment.

Naruto looked around.

"We need to make sure the enemy is drawn away so we can get into the cage unhindered."

Usopp took out a smoke bomb.

"I have a plan. We can use this smoke bomb to create chaos and distract the fishmen."

Luffy clapped his hands enthusiastically.

"Great! That's a great idea!"

Naruto nodded.

"At the same time, each of us needs to use our best skills. Tasha, do you have any suggestions?"

Tasha smiled.

"I can use my shadow steps and assassination skills to help everyone stay hidden, and maybe even surprise them."

The team redefined its action plan, and everyone was full of confidence and determination.

They knew that rescuing Sauron was not an easy task, but they believed that as long as they worked together and used their brains, they would succeed.

"We need to make sure the enemy is drawn away so we can get into the cage unhindered."

Naruto's voice sounded slightly anxious.

Just as everyone began to discuss the action plan enthusiastically, suddenly, a low voice sounded.

"Are you planning on rescuing Zoro?"

Everyone looked up and saw four figures quietly appearing from the depths of the cave.

One of the men was wearing a black suit and had a cold smile on his face.

"You are?"

Luffy asked, feeling surprised and nervous.

The man in black did not answer, but just spoke lightly.

"We are CP9."

The Straw Hat Pirates looked at each other.

237CP9? This mysterious organization never appeared in their adventures.

"What is your purpose?"

Usopp gripped his weapon tightly, ready to fight.

One of the CP9 members answered primly.

"We have our own mission, but we pose no threat to you. We are just passing through."

At this time, Tasha looked at the CP9 members. She could feel the powerful and unpredictable aura from them.

"They look very strong."

She thought to herself.

Naruto asked without any fear.

"If you were just passing by, why did you interfere with our plans?"

The CP9 member glanced at Naruto indifferently and did not answer.

"Their presence worries me."

Usopp whispered.

"We cannot be sure of their position and purpose."

Luffy clenched his fists and showed a firm and fearless expression when facing the CP9 members.

"No matter who you are, if you stand in our way of rescuing Zoro, we will show no mercy."

Naruto approached the man in black step by step.

"Tell me, who are you? Why are you here?"

The man in black stared at Naruto with cold eyes.

"Straw Hat Pirates, we have no hostility towards you, but if you interfere with our affairs, you will bear the consequences."

Chapter 237 CP9 Members

The two figures quickly shuttled through the cave, displaying their respective unique skills.

Luffy rushed towards another CP9 member without hesitation.

He waved the pirate flag, as if to let the world hear their fighting spirit.

Usopp and Tasha formed a formation tacitly and worked together to deal with one of the CP9 members.

They attacked the enemy at lightning speed, hoping to gain a slight advantage.

The battle raged on, and the cave echoed with the sound of sharp swords clashing and fists and feet fighting.

Blood and sweat intertwined, beating to the rhythm of life in this small space.

At this moment, Naruto suddenly felt a huge force coming at him.

He was unable to dodge and was violently knocked away by the man in black.

"Naruto!"

Zoro exclaimed, and quickly stopped his attack to protect his comrades.

The man in black stood there, watching all this coldly.

He smiled mockingly.

"What a useless bunch of Straw Hats."

Luffy stared at the man in black angrily.

"You guys will die!"

Courage and anger boiled in the hearts of the Straw Hat Pirates, and they were determined not to be defeated by the CP9 members.

Even if they face an unpredictable enemy, they will never surrender.

"We are the Straw Hat Pirates! Our flag will never fall!"

Luffy shouted loudly.

He waved the pirate flag, gathering the will and strength of all his companions.

Upon hearing this, the Straw Hat Pirates members' eyes were firm and fiery.

They worked closely together and used their strongest power to fight against the CP9 members.

On the Tranquil Sea, Shanks stood alone on an abandoned ship, gazing at the dark clouds in the sky.

The faint sunlight shone on him through the gaps in the dark clouds, creating a poignant light and shadow.

He sighed softly, and endless thoughts surged in his mind.

Shanks knew that the world was about to undergo a major change.

All signs and clues point to this fact.

In this battle, the Straw Hat Pirates play a crucial role.

"The Straw Hat Pirates..."

Shanks muttered.

"You may not yet know what fate you will face."

Recalling the time when he met Luffy and the others, Shanks discovered that these young people were burning with an astonishing passion and courage.

Although they are young and frivolous, they always believe that they can change the world.

Shanks understood deeply that the future was firmly in the hands of the Straw Hat Pirates.

However, in this world, power and ambition are intertwined into an invisible web that binds all heroes.

Shanks silently clenched his fists, and a silver light flickered in the darkness.

"Straw Hat Pirates, you are the hope of light and the victims of darkness."

Shanks muttered to himself.

"Now, where do I go?"

He gazed at the sea level in the distance, a feeling of determination surging in his heart.

Although he still had no idea about the future, he decided to wait and see.

He wants to see how things develop and is ready to intervene at any time.

“The world is about to change, and I’m going to play my part.”

Shanks's eyes were firm.

"Whether in darkness or light, I will protect you."

Taking a deep breath, Shanks returned to gazing at the sky above the black clouds.
