Comparing the two Luffies, this Luffy is so cool!

He lay in the narrow cabin, intending to take a nap, when he suddenly spotted a medium-sized sailboat in front of him.

When the ship approaches, Buggy suddenly sees a sheep's head on the bow.

【No way...】

[Can this also happen???]

[I originally planned to leave without saying goodbye. It would be so awkward to see you again now...]

After thinking for a while, Buggy lay down again and hid himself in the cabin~~~

He waited silently, wanting to wait for the Merry to leave.

[However, a voice (Qian Hao Zhao) suddenly came~~~]

"Bucky, are you planning to leave without saying goodbye?"

Buggy sat up again and saw the Merry's goat's head appear in front of his boat. Luffy was squatting on the goat's neck like a monkey.

Bucky smiled awkwardly. "Sweat! My appointment with you is over, and since you guys were busy, I left early. What a coincidence, we actually ran into each other~~"

Luffy shook his head: "No, we should at least say goodbye before the agreement is over!"

"Alright! Luffy, let's say goodbye now!"

Buggy was speechless, thinking Luffy was so childish~~

“Well, bye, Buggy! Our previous agreement ends here!”

【Luffy waved his hand.】

"Bye~"

[Bucky waved his hand, then shook the oars and started rowing~]

"Hey! Don't leave so quickly!" Luffy yelled.

[“Anything else?”]

【Bucky stops and looks back blankly.】

Luffy rested his chin on one hand: "Baki, you are now a free man. Then, as the captain of the Merry, I invite you to become my partner. Are you willing?"

[After hearing this, Buggy's heart skipped a beat!]

【hateful! ! 】

[Did I hear that correctly? 】

[This guy is actually inviting me to become his partner! ]

Bucky took two deep breaths and composed himself. "What? The wind's a bit strong out at sea... What did you say...? I didn't hear you clearly..."

[Luffy of course understood that Buggy did this on purpose, so he laughed and snapped his fingers!

Zoro, Usopp, Sanji, and Nami appeared at the bow of the ship at the same time, and shouted loudly: "Baki, will you be our partner?"

As soon as these words came out, Buggy’s eyes suddenly became moist.

Damn it!

[These guys!!]

So, he put one foot on the edge of the boat, his hands on his hips: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get me on board!!"

Chapter 69: A famous sword becomes famous because of its owner! (Subscribe!)

Buggy: "What? I really got on the Straw Hat boy's ship over there???"

Gol D. Roger: "Haha! Buggy, this is good news!!"

Edward Newgate: "The Red Nosed Boy and the Straw Hat Boy are together. It seems that the story over there will be more exciting~~~"

Don Quixote Doflamingo: "Fufufufufu...!!! Is Buggy over there actually hanging out with the Straw Hat Kid?"

Shanks: "Hey! Don't underestimate Buggy! He has something innate that no one else can possess!"

Shilpaz Rayleigh: "Shanks is right, I feel the same way..."

...

Amidst the crowd's discussions, the red-framed screen gradually dimmed.

Not long after, the white frame screen gradually brightened up! !

The Straw Hat Pirates left Cocosia Village and arrived at Rogue Town when they docked again!

[Located in the East China Sea, Rogue Town is a town on an island very close to the entrance of the Grand Line. Hence, it is also known as the 'town where the beginning and the end'!!]

Walking along the harbor into Rogue Town, the first thing that catches your eye is a tall gatehouse with the words "loguetown" written on it.

[Neatly arranged blocks, with tall buildings everywhere~~~]

【The first floor is filled with a wide variety of shops, which is really beautiful! 】

[The crowds on the streets are shoulder to shoulder, stretching as far as the eye can see~~~]

Gol D. Roger: "Hey... Rogue Town...!!"

Shiki: "Hahahahaha!!! Roger! This is where you were beheaded. Don't you miss it so much~~~"

Gol D. Roger: "If you put it that way... I really do miss it a little! But now that I'm resurrected, it feels really strange to see Rogue Town again~~~"

Don Quixote Doflamingo: "Fufufufufu...!! 22 years ago, I was there to witness the Pirate King's demeanor~~~"

Moonlight Moriah: "Hehehehe!!! You're talking like no one's around!!"

Djoracle Mihawk: "That was indeed a significant execution! I was there too!"

Shanks: "Haha!! Mihawk, that was the day we first met, right~"

Crocodile: "After all, it's the execution site of the Pirate King. Who wouldn't go?"

Zhan Guo: "Roger, do you miss it? Do you want to do it again?"

Gol D. Roger: "Hahahaha!! Don't even think about it, you definitely won't have that chance! I'm 38 years old now, at my prime age. By the time all your teeth fall out, I'll still be alive and kicking~~~"

Sakaski: "Then I'll take care of you!!"

Rocks D. Gibeck: "What the hell!? You're supposed to deal with this and that! Are you some idiot hired by the Warring States just to make some tough talk?"

Sakaski: "Haha!! Don't worry about what I do, at least I'm alive. You, a corpse, are the only ones who can engage in verbal battles!!"

Rox D. Gibeck: "You're looking for death...!!!"

Being provoked by Sakaski, Rocks was a little bit broken~~~

[The Straw Hat Pirates entered Rogue Town~~~]

[Zoro goes to buy a sword, Sanji and Usopp go to buy food, Nami goes to buy clothes and daily necessities, and Luffy goes to play~~~]

Zoro arrived at the weapon shop in Rogue Town, but the owner, Mai Yidao, spotted the Wado Ichimonji on his body...

[Tashigi comes to pick up her sword for maintenance and happens to see this scene. She denounces the weapon shop owner's evil behavior~~~]

The owner of the weapons shop angrily threw Tashigi's famous sword, Sayo Shigure, to her.

Holding Sayo Shigure in her hand, Tashigi murmured to herself, "Why are the evil forces so powerful in this era? Any swordsman with some fame either becomes a bounty hunter or a pirate. Could it be that almost all of them are in their hands... I can feel those famous swords weeping..."

Upon hearing this, Zoro turned to look at Tashigi and said calmly, "Well... everyone has their own experiences. If you haven't experienced what others have gone through, it's best not to criticize them casually~~"

Tashigi, however, boasted with a haughty expression, "No matter what! As a swordsman holding Sayo Shigure, I will train diligently! One day, I will retrieve all the famous swords that have fallen into the hands of the wicked!!!"

Djorakol Mihawk: "With this state of mind... it's hard to achieve great things."

Tashigi: "Ah...? Mr. Hawkeye..., you..."

Shiki: "Little girl, if you want to become a great swordsman, you don't have the capacity to be a master! Hahahahaha!!!"

Tashigi: "Wh...what do you mean...???"

Vista: "Navy woman, you don't understand at all! The reason why a famous sword becomes a famous sword is not because it is a famous sword in itself, but because its owner makes it a famous sword!"

Xiliu: "Hahaha! You still have the patience to explain to her? If you ask me, this stupid female soldier is an idiot. She felt the tears from those knives??? That's nonsense!! Why do I feel excited that my knives are following me, hahaha!!!"

Marshall D. Teach: "Yeah, he's a complete idiot! Hahahaha!!!"

Smoker: "Asshole! Don't be rude to my subordinates!!"

Katharina Depen: "Who is this...?"

Basque Choate: "Who knows which onion it is!"

Zoro only had 10 berries on him, and it was borrowed from Nami at a high-interest loan...

[Poverty forced him to choose only among ordinary blunt knives~~~]

【Suddenly, he took out a knife from the knife bucket.】

[Tashigi exclaimed: "This knife... I've seen it in a book!"]

She immediately pulled out the pamphlet she had brought with her and began to examine it. She then exclaimed, "This sword is the Sandai Kitetsu! Although it's not among the top fifty swords, it's definitely quite famous!"

Zoro looked at the price on the knife barrel again and asked, "Boss, is this knife really only 5 berries?"

The owner of the weapon shop was horrified when he saw Zoro holding the knife. "No! I can't sell you that knife!"

Dashigi, standing by, said in dissatisfaction, "Why are you like this? I clearly marked it at 5 berries, and just because I told you about the origins of this knife, you're going to raise the price?"

However, Zoro said seriously, "It's not that the boss wants to raise the price, it's probably because this sword is a demon sword, right?"

The weapon shop owner was slightly taken aback. "Ah? You've heard of...?"

Zoro shook his head, staring at the blade of the knife. "I've never heard of it, but I can tell!"

[“…Yes! You’re right! The swords of the Kitetsu lineage, led by the first Kitetsu, are all precious, but they are also demonic swords!”]

"All those famous swordsmen who wielded Kitetsu were tragically killed! To this day, there is no swordsman in the world who still wields Kitetsu."

"I want to get rid of this knife, but...if you die from it, it will feel like I killed you..."

[The weapon shop owner spoke from the heart.]

[However, Zoro raised the Kitetsu high up, his eyes sharp: "I've decided, I want this sword!"]

Upon hearing this, the weapon shop owner shouted, "Idiot! Didn't you hear what I just said? This is a cursed sword!!"

"Okay, then I'll take a gamble and see if I'm really suitable for this knife!"

Zoro smiled faintly and threw the Kitetsu in his hand high into the air. The blade spun rapidly, leaving afterimages in the air! !

"If I lose... then it means I'm just average!"

[As soon as he finished speaking, Zoro suddenly stretched out his left arm! ! ! ]

[Above, Kitetsu reaches its highest point, and with the same fierce spinning momentum, it smashes down towards Zoro's arm below! ! !]

Vista: "Hey! This guy!!!"

Blenheim: "Is he crazy?! That's Kitetsu!!"

Charlotte Mond: "Until now, no one has figured out the curse of Kitetsu. Only an ignorant frog in the well like him would choose Kitetsu!

Bendik Sinek: "This is probably what ignorance means!"

Shiki: "Indeed... Only fools would dare to use it. Just like what the weapon shop owner said, all the swordsmen who used Kitetsu, without exception, all died a violent death!"

Tony Tony Chopper: "Huh? Is this what will happen to Zoro? Uwaa ...

Vinsmoke Sanji (bffh): "Hey! Idiot green algae head!! You better be tough! Otherwise I will look down on you!!"

Roronoa Zoro: "Don't worry, I'm fine now, right?"

Under the horrified gazes of the weapon shop owner and Tashigi, the back of Kitetsu's blade slammed into Zoro's arm, then fell to the ground, the blade completely embedded in the floor...!!!

Zoro's mouth curled slightly: "This sword... I accept it!"

Kira: "He actually won the bet...! That's Kitetsu!!"

Kid Eustace: "Haven't we met the pirate hunter Zoro? If he hadn't won the bet, he wouldn't have waved his arms in front of us~"

Kira: "I mean... even if we know the outcome, it's still shocking!!!"

Trafalgar Law: "Indeed! Not everyone has that kind of courage..."

Basil Hawkins: "To be honest, I just calculated the probability of him winning the bet, and it's only... one percent!!!"
