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

It was quite strange that this guy quietly ended up on the Grand Line.

Then Haoshu took the opportunity to tie him up.

They planned to have someone escort Boa Hancock to Impel Down on the way to the World Government.

Yes, pirates with tens of millions in assets, especially those who once held such a high share in the East Blue, are certainly qualified to be imprisoned in the Deep Sea Impel Down.

Even the first layer, which is relatively the most spacious~

When the Navy informed Hancock, the news that Fire Fist Ace was to be executed was instantly spread throughout the world by Morgans' newsbirds.

The whole world was immediately in an uproar.

The beginnings of this massive war, which is about to impact the entire world, have finally begun to unfold.

Just as the world was in an uproar, time quickly passed.

The navy has made ample preparations for this war!

First, they gathered 100,000 elite marines at the Marine Headquarters, including all the officers from the Admiral down, from Vice Admirals to Rear Admirals, Commodores, and Captains! In addition to the elites of the Marine Headquarters, there was also a coalition of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, summoned by the World Government.

The seven Warlords of the Sea arrived at Marine Headquarters early, awaiting the start of the war.

Well, except for someone in 893 who hasn't arrived yet and is preparing to set off.

"Lady Snake Princess, please be careful on your journey!!"

"Go, Lady Snake!!"

"Let's beat those stinky men to a pulp!!!"

At the port, amidst the cheers of the crowd, Hancock stood atop the head of the giant green serpent, slowly approaching the location of the naval warship.

As the snake moved forward, Hancock couldn't help but glance back.

When she saw someone smiling at her from a hidden branch of a large tree, her cheeks flushed instantly!

"Ahhh, Master Hancock!!"

Upon seeing Hancock's current appearance, it wasn't just the women of the Kingdom of Women at the port who were already on the verge of madness with excitement.

Even the naval soldiers on the Molten Rat ship were getting restless!

The allure of the world's most beautiful woman is terrifying!

"Quiet down!!"

Melthammer sternly reprimanded his men for their agitation, while staring intently at Boa Hancock as she approached.

It wasn't just the other person's charm, but also the terrifying strength that subtly emanated from them!

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Pirate Empress Boa Hancock, actually possesses such strength?!"

Haoshu was inwardly shocked.

Before coming, he had also obtained information about Hancock from the Navy, but he only emphasized her charm and the power of her Devil Fruit.

However, he didn't say much about his own strength.

"No wonder she's the only female among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, with that kind of strength..."

Under the wary and suspicious gaze of the rat, Hancock slowly boarded the ship.

"let's go

High up in a tree somewhere, after seeing that Hancock had boarded the naval warship, Link looked away and said to Granny New beside him.

"Is it time to say goodbye?!"

[Thanks to 'M' for the 2000-point reward!! And thank you again to 'Call Me Monster' for the 1000-point reward!! That's 16,000 points already, thank you everyone! There will be an extra chapter today!!]

311 Departure! Luffy emerges from his training! [Happy Gashapon Machine] and [Unexpected Joy]!!!

Grandma New seemed to have expected this, and whispered there.

"Well, I've troubled you for so long, it's time for me to leave."

Link smiled and said, "And we've reached a critical moment. The war is about to begin, and it's time for us to do something."

"Is that so?"

Feeling the approaching storm of war, Grandma New sighed softly.

He couldn't help but look at Link, with whom he had spent nearly two hundred days, their relationship having grown considerably, and who was also his junior, whom he had mentored.

"Be careful."

This was her heartfelt advice.

"Don't worry, I will."

Link nodded gently. "Goodbye, Grandma New."

After leaving those words, Link's figure vanished instantly.

The sudden flash of lightning was gone, as was the dazzling lightning bolt.

Only where he stood remained, a scorch mark.

Sending and receiving is effortless, and operations run smoothly.

In these two hundred-plus days, Link didn't waste a single moment!

When he reappeared, he was already in front of that familiar barbecue stall.

"Sister Chunbo~"

Link smiled and said, "Could you please pack up all the skewers from the vendor's stall for me?"

"Hey, it's you, sister!!"

Chunbo, who was grilling meat skewers there, looked up in surprise upon hearing that familiar and distinctive tone.

I was especially happy to see that familiar face and attire.

"I was wondering why you weren't coming. I'll grill and pack all this meat for you right away!"

After saying that, she busied herself while calling out to the people inside:

"Afang, bring out that umbrella, our sisters are here!!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the burly, strong woman hurriedly come out of the back room with the "Love Umbrella".

"Thank you so much, sister! Thanks to your umbrella, Fang and I were able to get together!!"

The proprietress of Chunbo was very grateful.

"His Majesty the King took this umbrella for one night, and then somehow it fell back to him. Please check it to see if there are any problems."

She was very honest and recounted the story of the umbrella.

"It's nothing serious~"

Link knew more about the umbrella's history than Chunbo and the others did.

"And congratulations!"

He smiled and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.

"Hey, that's really too much, sister. By the way, what's your name, and when are you coming over next time?"

"My name is Link. Next time... well, I'll probably be going on a long trip and won't be back for a while."

"Link, is that right? Your name is quite unique... Going on a long trip? Are you going back to the forest to hunt and pick mushrooms? You'd better be careful."

Chunbo asked with concern, then patted her chest, "When you come back, come here, and I'll treat you to a welcome-back dinner!"

"Thank you so much, Sister Chunbo."

"Leave it to me. By the way, how long are you planning to be gone?"

"How long...~々..."

Link raised his head, gazing at the distant sky and sea, a slight smile involuntarily appearing on his lips.

"It might be a very, very long time."

…………

After the news of Portgas D. Ace's public execution spread, the most shocked and excited places in the world, apart from the Marine Headquarters and the Whitebeard Pirates in the New World, were the Marine Headquarters and the Whitebeard Pirates.

The Sabaody Archipelago, which is closest to the Navy Headquarters, is one of them.

Besides the fact that this place is geographically closest to the Naval Headquarters and people are afraid of being affected, many of the people who are currently staying here are also looking forward to a good show after the initial shock.

Especially those supernovas who sensed something was wrong on the islands and lingered here for a while instead of heading to the New World.

They felt incredibly fortunate that they hadn't rushed to the New World and instead found themselves here facing a world-class war.

In particular, only on this island can a complete live broadcast be conducted.

Only then can one see the firsthand, most authentic picture of the war.

Currently, at the very center of the island, on the large tree where the radio station is located, multiple broadcast screens have already been set up.

The Den Den Mushi (snail phone) was prepared well in advance, and employees and reporters from news media from various countries and newspapers all came here to wait.

"A battle of this scale is probably a once-in-a-lifetime event."

Kidd, with his red hair and spiky wig, sat on a nearby tree, looking down at the noisy, bustling reporters below, and felt a surge of excitement within himself.

He couldn't wait for the war to begin!

"The battle between the strongest forces of the Navy and the Pirates, two opposing factions, is truly a war worthy of being recorded in history!!"

Kira, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement.

After he finished speaking, he looked around and saw the other familiar figures.

“Apu of [Sea Cry], Drake of [Red Flag], Bonnie of [Gluttony], Capone Becky of [Gangster], Hawkins of [Magician], and…”

Kira took one last look at Urouge, who was wrapped in bandages in the corner, in the corner. "Urouge, the eccentric monk!"

"Most of the other supernovas also stayed on the island to watch the war."

"but……"

Kira paused here.

"The Straw Hat crew, the most crucial members, are missing, right?"

Kidd squinted and looked around. "After kidnapping the Celestial Dragons, their group disappeared without a trace, right?"

"Not only them, but also Trafalgar Law, the Surgeon of Death, disappeared along with them."

"It's hard to doubt that they've reached some ulterior motive."

Kira chimed in, "And it's said that Admiral Kizaru from the Marine Headquarters came here before, but after merely kicking Urouge away, he left with his men."

"And after that, no news came out. Neither the Navy nor the World Government, nor even the World News Economic News Agency, reported on it."

"This makes the whole thing seem strange in a whole way."

Upon hearing this, Kidd subconsciously scratched his red hair:

"They might also be plotting something, and they even kidnapped a Celestial Dragon...maybe it's related to this war too~~~"

Kidd made unfounded guesses there.

However, it must be said that the intuition of some fools can always easily uncover the truth.

Not only those two, but also others such as Apoo, who was previously at the same auction, Urouge, the only unlucky victim of Kizaru's attack, and Drake, whose Navy Pacifista secrets were leaked by Sentomaru.

They were also searching for traces of the Straw Hat Pirates, who had disappeared some time ago.

And when Kidd, Killer, and this group of people keep talking about it~

In a secluded dead-end alleyway, on an ordinary wall, there's a wallpaper pasted on a door.

"Beep beep..."

Pebo, Pekin, Shaki, and many other members of the Heart Pirates all stared at the gashapon-like machine in front of them with bloodshot eyes.

At everyone's feet were a group of octopuses dressed in blue and holding small folding fans.

"This time, Xiong is determined to win the grand prize in the 'Unexpected Joy' event!!"

Peibo spat forcefully onto his palms and rubbed them together.
