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

"Actually, in principle, the nicknames on pirate bounty posters are generally based on the person's physical characteristics, past identity, and crimes committed. For example, Luffy's 'Straw Hat,' Franky's 'Cyborg,' and Sanji's 'Black Leg,' etc."

Nami looked at Kid with some curiosity: "Logically speaking, the most distinctive feature of this guy should be his striking red hair. Red hair?" Suddenly, Nami paused.

Because she also remembered that the nickname "Red Hair" had already been used by someone else.

Moreover, it was called by a very powerful figure in the New World, in the latter half of the Grand Line.

In that case... indeed, Kidd's nickname is a bit ambiguous.

"If they all possess the same obvious characteristics, it is usually the strong and experienced individuals who are able to obtain them."

Link also looked at Kidd, whose face was turning pale and bluish.

Indeed, what's most striking about Kidd is his red hair; that's the first impression.

As it turns out... his nickname is the least memorable one, "Captain," a very common and unremarkable one.

Kidd probably knew that the most suitable nickname for him was "Red-Haired Shanks," but that nickname was in the hands of another great pirate.

So, what he did, which was quite unhappy about this, was to first pick a nickname at random, and then, with a fierce determination, completely bring down that great pirate!

[Redhead] Take turns calling, this year it's my house!!

Kidd must have been holding a grudge, otherwise he wouldn't have gone looking for trouble with Shanks as soon as he entered the New World.

Even after losing an arm to Shanks, he still relentlessly joined forces with Apoo and Hawkins to form a pirate alliance, stubbornly continuing to target Shanks.

Well, people who don't know the situation might think that the two of them have some kind of deep-seated hatred between them.

"let's go!!"

Kidd listened to the comments about his hair color and nickname, which hit a nerve, and gritted his teeth.

Feeling frustrated and depressed, he immediately told his men to leave.

Well, if he could win, or at least have a chance to fight, he would at least exchange a few blows with the Straw Hat Pirates.

However, Link's attack just now really left a deep impression on him.

If he continues to stay and fight against the Straw Hat Pirates, it might not just be his red hair that gets burned in the next second.

They might even be able to smash his head out.

Following Apoo and his group, Kidd also left in a rather disheveled state.

They were supposed to cause trouble for the Straw Hat Pirates, but now they've been forced back by Link with a single move!

They arrived full of vigor and high spirits, but left looking utterly dejected and pathetic.

Thus, only Luo and his group, along with the blind swordsman, remained in the room.

There are fewer and fewer people.

However, the fewer people present who know what the Straw Hat Pirates are up to, the better it is for them.

"In that case, Rayleigh, Celestial Dragon, both of our objectives for coming here are now complete!!"

Luffy looked at the crooked ropes binding the three Celestial Dragons and nodded with satisfaction at his handiwork.

"They...they're trying to kidnap a Celestial Dragon?!"

At that moment, the people backstage discovered that no one was guarding them, and the slaves who had been emboldened to come out after the silence in front of them were gone.

As soon as they came out, they saw Luffy's extremely rebellious behavior and were immediately terrified.

Just pretend you didn't see anything~

Link took the keys from the collars around the necks of the group of people from Disco's body and threw them over.

"Let's pretend nothing happened. It's better for both of us."

"Otherwise, if they ask and the Celestial Dragons investigate..."

When they saw Link give them the keys, their eyes, filled with longing for freedom, immediately lit up.

Upon hearing Link's words, they quickly said they would keep the matter to themselves.

After everyone unlocked the door, they immediately expressed their gratitude and hurriedly left this place of trouble.

Not only were the people who were about to become slaves shocked, but even Rayleigh was somewhat surprised, not to mention Bepo and the others in the audience, whose fur was almost standing on end.

"They...they actually dared to attack a Celestial Dragon?!"

Bepo, and the Heart Pirates crew members beside him, all looked on in disbelief.

Especially when you look at the actions of the Straw Hat Pirates, the way they manipulate and bind the World Nobles is no different from tying up livestock.

"So, this group of people really does tend to do things that are completely unexpected!!"

After the initial shock, a burning glint flashed in Luo's eyes.

He had also witnessed the move that Link and Kidd had just used.

To be honest, even he wasn't confident he could handle it!

However, this is exactly the kind of power he has been hoping for!

"Indeed, this trip wasn't a complete waste..."

The blind swordsman sitting at the very back was also chuckling softly.

"They've kidnapped all the Celestial Dragons..."

"They're really a daring and funny group, what an interesting scene."

He smiled and slowly got up.

Once you've seen the scene you wanted to "see," there's no point in staying here any longer.

"Sir, are you really planning to leave like this?"

281 Let's have a cup of tea and chat, and everyone's reaction! The Straw Hat Pirates, it's the Straw Hat Pirates again!!

"Sir, are you really planning to leave like this?"

Just as he was about to leave, Link's laughter suddenly came from the stage.

"Don't you plan to stay a while longer and have a cup of tea and a chat?"

"That's unnecessary. If I stay any longer, I won't be able to leave."

He turned his head slightly. "When the Admiral arrives, I might not be able to say for sure."

If a Celestial Dragon is attacked or offended, they must be protected by an Admiral from the Marine Headquarters.

"No need to be in such a hurry~"

Link waved his hand slightly, "The Admirals of the Marine Headquarters won't be able to find us."

As he spoke, he took out a prop.

"Shall we chat?"

Link spoke to the blind tourist in front of him, and also to Luo and his group beside him.

As he spoke, he flicked the papers he had taken out.

"Luckily, I still have some hot tea and fragrant ramen here, as well as..."

He looked at Luo and smiled, saying, "Grilled fish and rice balls without pickled plums?"

Ramen, rice balls without pickled plums?

Both the blind ranger and Luo showed expressions of interest.

other people:"……"

The Straw Hat Pirates attacked a human auction and kidnapped a Celestial Dragon!

This incredibly explosive news spread like wildfire across the entire Sabaody Archipelago, like a tornado destroying a parking lot.

"puff?!!"

Bonnie, who was gulping down a drink in the restaurant, immediately spat out her mouthful of soda upon hearing the news.

"Are you kidding me?! That's a Celestial Dragon!!!"

Bonnie stared in astonishment at her subordinate who had just been sprayed in the face. "How dare they?!"

"That's the truth, Captain Bonnie..."

The subordinate wiped his face; although he had already heard the news, he was still extremely shocked.

"This news came from the human auction house."

"It is said that when the navy stormed into the venue, there were only a group of unconscious nobles and wealthy guests who had participated in the auction."

"When they woke up, it was said that before they lost consciousness, the Celestial Dragons were about to shoot the Straw Hat Pirates, and then their eyes rolled back and they knew nothing more."

"When they woke up again, the Straw Hat Pirates were gone, and the three Celestial Dragons were also gone."

"so……"

Bonney immediately chimed in: "So the Navy concluded that the Straw Hat Pirates kidnapped the Celestial Dragons, right?!"

"That's right!!"

The underlings nodded repeatedly.

"This is really..."

Bonnie swallowed the food in her mouth, her face very unpleasant. "Of all people to mess with, she had to pick on those bastards."

"That's great, the Admiral is definitely coming!!!"

"And those idiot Celestial Dragons too. They destroyed Enies Lobby, declared war on the World Government head-on—they're crazy pirates with screws on their heads. You tell me, what kind of family are they?"

Dude, why go and provoke them?

Bonnie smacked her teeth and instantly swept all the food off the table:

"Men, get back to base! 々々!"

On the other side~

"Damn it, I already told you I left early, why are you still chasing me?!"

In Zone 3, Ap led his gang of underlings and ran forward at top speed.

And every now and then, he would complain to the navy men chasing after him.

After news of the Straw Hat Pirates kidnapping a Celestial Dragon spread, he was quickly targeted and hunted down by the Marines stationed on the Sabaody Archipelago.

The reason is that they were also present at the time, and they entered before the guests fainted, and disappeared after waking up.

Therefore, they are highly suspicious!

Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free! Especially since they are pirates themselves!

"Damn it, I told you nothing good would come from going in here! But you wouldn't believe me!!"

Seeing the navy men behind him relentlessly pursuing him without a word, Apoo was so angry that he jumped up and down, and then angrily berated his underlings.

However, his henchmen remained silent, but their pace quickened, gradually leaving Apoo, the captain, behind. Apoo: "...Hey!! Why are you running so fast? Wait for me!!!" Bang bang bang!!

Amidst several gunshots rang out behind them, Apu and his men fled in disarray.

It's still area number eighteen, still next to that beautiful fountain.

"Captain, the admiral is on his way! Let's get out of here quickly!"

Hawkins' men were there, earnestly trying to persuade him to leave.

Anxin West Road

Hawkins casually picked up the tarot card in front of him, "I'm not going to die today."

"Moreover, the probability of being caught is only 11%, the probability of successfully escaping is 76%, and the probability of being injured is..."

He glanced down at the cards. "Sixty-two percent!!"

The charlatan Hawkins was spouting nonsense about his fate, while others were on tenterhooks.

"Luckily I didn't go there immediately."

Upon hearing the news, Capone Becky couldn't help but wipe the sweat trickling down his forehead.

"Otherwise, the trouble would be much bigger?"
