The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

Is she a bad person?

"No."

"Then let her join."

"Okay."

"To harm others." ?97?IIIIn

"Aren't you two being way too casual?!"

A group of people roared at Luffy and Link in unison.

"Is it casual?"

Luffy, oblivious to his own ignorance, tilted his head and looked at his crewmates, "But Link already said she's not a bad person—?"

He said matter-of-factly, "Since Link says there's no problem, then I think there definitely is no problem either!!"

other people:"……"

That sounds like you're making a lot of sense, and we can't find any reason to refute you.

The others were speechless. Indeed, given Link's usual reliability, if it was his judgment, then there was no problem... "Has his hostility towards me decreased?"

Robin, who is quite sensitive to atmosphere and emotions, keenly noticed the change in the atmosphere inside the room.

"Just because Link, the prop master, approves of me, has reduced his hostility so much..."

For the first time, Robin personally experienced Link's influence on the ship, and the recognition that the crew and even the captain had of Link's abilities and judgment.

"Is he the most reliable man on this ship?"

Robin's gaze involuntarily fell on Link, lingering for a few more seconds.

Of course, with Link's endorsement, everyone's vigilance towards Robin decreased significantly, but they still did not let their guard down.

It wasn't until Robin used her Flower Flower Fruit powers to play games with Luffy, Chopper, and Usopp that things got chaotic.

He then brought out a large pile of gold and silver jewelry he had accumulated from Crocodile's Rain Banquet, which won Nami's absolute favor and praise.

As for Sanji... ever since he met Robin, he's been calling her "Robin-nee" so affectionately.

Fortunately, Robin knew this guy's true nature, and with a polite smile, she maintained a certain distance in a very ladylike manner.

As for Zoro... well, with Link around, they'll be there to handle anything that happens.

Instead of dwelling on it, I focused even more intently on my training.

Thus, Robin was able to legitimately stay on the ship as a crew member.

And once she got on this pirate ship, she could never get off again~~~

"Hey, hey, hey, don't just focus on Miss AIISunday, don't forget about me too!!"

Von Clay, who was ignored inside the trap bag, became impatient and anxiously reminded [someone]...

He's been in that glass fish tank for days now, he's really had enough.

Oh right, I almost forgot about this guy.

A group of people surrounded them, and even Robin turned his gaze over.

His eyes also revealed his curiosity about the [trap bag].

She really hadn't seen much of Link's gadgets before.

"Clatter?"

Link released von Clay, who returned to his original form and landed on the ground, panting heavily.

"Finally out! I can finally breathe some fresh air outside. I almost suffocated..."

Von Klay looked up at the sky and for the first time felt that the blue sky was so blue and the white clouds so bright...

"What are you going to do next?"

Luffy crossed his arms and looked at the transvestite who was quite to his liking. "How about becoming our crewmate and traveling with us?"

"Hey Hey hey!!!"

Sanji, who was standing nearby, twitched his eyebrows when he heard Luffy's words.

Sailing on the same boat as a transvestite was an extremely difficult challenge for him.

"Ahem, while I'm very grateful for your invitation, I have other important matters to attend to!" Although Bon Clay was deeply moved by Luffy's invitation, he wiped his eyes and firmly stated:

"Back in Alabasta, Little 0 gave me so many conveniences and generous treatment, but before I could even do anything for him, I was trapped by you, and he was defeated by you..."

"So you want revenge for him?!"

Sanji shuffled his feet, his eyes filled with wariness towards transvestites.

"No, no, no, you can all be considered my friends. You and Xiao 0 each have your own stance and are fighting for your own beliefs. I will not have any complaints about such a manly battle!!"

Von Clay quickly waved his hand and expressed his true thoughts.

"Well said!!"

Upon hearing about a battle worthy of men, Luffy, Chopper, and Usopp immediately beamed with joy, almost as if they were about to drag Bon Clay and the others into another silly dance.

"Although the battle is over, I cannot forget Little 0's kindness, so I have decided..."

He wiped his cheek, his gaze resolute, and said:

"I plan to break him out of prison and rescue him to repay his kindness!!"

Should we break them out of prison?

Sanji was taken aback by these words; this transvestite seemed to be more benevolent than he had imagined.

"Not all transgender people are that annoying."

Sanji seemed to be deep in thought.

"Is Xiao Feng really that loyal?!"

Luffy and his crew have automatically started calling Bon Clay "Little Bon."

"Of course, this is my way of being a human-demon!"

von Clay sniffed and shouted loudly.

"Oh oh oh!!"

The three of them joined in, howling and screaming like ghosts.

Given von Clay's display of loyalty, the group naturally respected his ideas.

They were happy to lend him a small boat and provide him with the necessary living supplies so that he could carry out his prison break attempt.

"If, and I mean if, we successfully rescue Xiao 0, and I myself am not captured by the Navy, and this rescue operation is successful, would you still be willing to accept me as your comrade?!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, you idiot? You're already our friend!!"

"That's right, we already have a deep friendship!"

"You'll definitely come back safe and sound, you bastard!!"

"Yes!!! I'll come back to find you after I've rescued Little Zero!!"

As flags flew high in the air, Bon Clay, piloting a small boat, tearfully waved goodbye to Chopper, Luffy, and Usopp, who were also weeping.

Why do I always have this feeling that he's never coming back?

Robin spoke very honestly about how she felt.

"Don't make such terrible associations, Robin!!"

"Exactly, can't we think about things on the bright side?"

"Ah, even Robin, who is making dangerous assumptions, is really beautiful!!"

The departure of von Clay marked the complete end of this trip to Alabasta.

However, apart from Luffy and his trio, no one was optimistic about Bon Clay's operation. After all, his target was Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea—such a powerful figure. Rescuing someone like him was met with pessimism from the others.

How could the navy not send out heavy troops to guard it?

In their view, they would definitely not go to rescue someone of that caliber.

What? If someone even more powerful than Crocodile is captured in the future, and they have to go rescue them too, will they go? How could such a person possibly exist?!

Achoo?!

On the high seas somewhere, Ace, who was eating and sleeping, sneezed.

Not only did others not have a high opinion of von Klay, but Link did not either.

In the original version, he, along with Mr. 1, 2, and 3, were all captured and imprisoned in Impel Down, the deep-sea prison, along with Crocodile.

Moreover, they were evenly distributed across the second, third, fourth, and sixth floors of the prison.

However, this does not prevent him from respecting the spirit and qualities of von Klay.

Just as Luffy, Link, and their crew were sailing on the high seas, continuing their journey to the next island...

On the Navy side, after Smoker sent the message, they also learned about what had happened in Alabasta.

Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.

Wow~

In the office of the Fleet Admiral, the wise general Sengoku, who wore a seagull hat, carefully placed the stack of documents in front of him.

All of this information is related to Alabasta; it's either news coming from Alabasta or analysis and solutions to this incident.

"How could such a mess have occurred? Crocodile, that bastard, has already been defeated? These Shichibukai are all a bit of a headache."

Sengoku frowned slightly as he looked at the report in front of him.

In these turbulent times, this is not good news.

"Gurgle?"

Standing directly in front of the desk, the naval officer who came to report couldn't help but swallow hard when he saw Sengoku's soldiers.

He felt immense pressure simply from frowning.

Truly worthy of being a figure standing at the pinnacle of the navy, the Fleet Admiral of the Sengoku period, embodying the spirit of "ruling the world with justice"!

The soldier looked on with admiration, while Sengoku was quite displeased because he was in trouble again and might have to work overtime, which would likely cause him to miss the opening hours of his favorite barley noodle shop.

Requesting flowers.........

"What a troublesome guy. Was it this group that took him down?"

Sengoku then turned his attention to the stack of bounty posters beside him.

"The Straw Hat Pirates: Captain [Straw Hat Boy], First Mate [Tool Master], Swordsman [Pirate Hunter]..."

He glanced at the bounty posters, the amounts set by professional analysts from headquarters, and nodded slightly without any objection.

"Let's go with this number."

He pressed his official seal as a Fleet Admiral, then picked up Luffy's bounty poster, looking at his photo and name with some hesitation.

"Monkey D. Luffy..."

Just by glancing at the photo and seeing the distinctive surname and initials, Sengoku knew pretty much who this pirate was connected to.

As a comrade-in-arms who joined the navy together and fought side by side for decades, how could he not know what that donut-shaped bastard looked like when he was young?!

This face is almost exactly the same as that bastard's when he was young!

Thinking of this, dark lines appeared on Zhan Guo's forehead and his eyes were filled with gloom.

"First it was Dragon, then it was Fire Fist Ace three years ago, and now it's Straw Hat Luffy..."

"Your family did this on purpose, didn't they?! Garp!!!"

Sengoku was furious. It could be said that all the chaos and trouble that had arisen on the high seas were basically caused by that bastard Garp's family.

If we hadn't fought side by side for decades and already thoroughly understood his background, plus the bloody and selfless battle we fought in the Valley of the Gods thirty-six years ago...

Sengoku really had reason to suspect that Garp might have ulterior motives for joining the Navy!

In fact, if it weren't for Garp's many outstanding contributions and his immense prestige within the Navy, it would be even more remarkable.
