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

Link's eyes suddenly flickered, and he involuntarily turned his head slightly, looking in a certain direction.

In the direction his gaze was directed.

Passing through this whale forest, passing through this furry principality, and then passing through the enormous body of Zulu~

At this moment, on the open sea below.

A huge ship was faintly visible.

Its entirety appears to be wrapped in candy, or rather, made of candy.

The ship's railings are adorned with frosting, the masttops are topped with ice cream cones, the main deck is flanked by candy canes and chips, and there's a large, candlelit two-tiered cake directly behind it.

The ship feels almost alive; its prow resembles a normal round face with clearly defined features, wearing a tricorn hat and a crown.

Moreover, his mouth kept opening and closing, and wisps of singing came out of his mouth.

"Gaaah, I didn't expect to run into Zou Island here?!"

On the deck of the ship, a lion-maneer wearing a pink suit, a sword at his waist, and sunglasses, with his tail swishing back and forth, was sticking out his tongue.

"It just so happens to have moved onto our return route! Perfect timing to go back and retrieve the last bit of my little stash of savings I've been keeping under my bed at home!!"

When it comes to anything related to money, he can't help but smack his lips.

"Honestly, there have been way too many wedding celebrations lately, haven't there?"

As he prepared his things to disembark, he grumbled to himself:

"Not only her mother, but also her sons, daughters, and ministers, all got married and started their own families."

"Who's the couple getting married this time?!"

He looked at the man sitting there, wearing sunglasses, a pink suit, a yellow bow tie, and with legs much longer than average.

"It seems to be Capone Becky from the gangster group~BON?"

The long-legged man put down his newspaper.

"If I remember correctly, this year's supernova is going to marry Chiffon, the Minister of Softness."

He stroked his mustache, which resembled that of a French gentleman, and spoke with a strange, drawn-out tone.

Not only did he speak strangely, but he also wore eggshell-shaped pants and black shoes.

Holding a cane and sword, he also took down the cup of hot coffee that was on his head and took a sip or two from time to time.

"This year's supernova? Ugh, that's pathetic~"

A flicker of pity and disdain crossed the eyes of the lion-fur tribesman.

"It's truly a tragedy for these rookie pirates to be living in the same era as the Straw Hat Pirates. All the attention and recognition they deserve have been stolen away!!"

Even if someone wants to enter the new world ahead of time and is determined to prove themselves, haven't they still come to terms with reality?

It must be said that what this lion-mannequin said was quite right.

After Luffy and his Straw Hat Pirates accomplished these feats, it's really hard for others to focus their attention on the pirates of their generation.

Flowers appear so vibrant and beautiful precisely because they are accompanied by so many green leaves.

To this lion-mink, those pirates were just supporting characters to the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Capone Becky from 'The Gangster' has wisely joined us. What about the other Supernovas this year? Any news?"

The lion-fur tribe asked.

"As for the other supernovas, Hawkins the Magician has already fought against other pirates in the New World, but they are all small-time pirates and not worth mentioning."

"The Navy's fallen Rear Admiral, [Red Flag (Qian Zhaohao)] X Drake, also clashed with the forces under the Beasts Pirates. Therefore, they only face two possible fates: submission or death. ~BON"

"【The Strange Monk】Urki, before we came out to collect desserts from the various islands under our control, seemed to be wandering around the waters surrounding our Tottoran, and he also seemed to be restless."

"However, that place is under the jurisdiction of Lord Snag, one of the Four Sweet Commanders, so there shouldn't be any problems."

"As for the Straw Hat Pirates and the Heart Pirates who are suspected of joining them, the captain with the highest bounty, Kid, has once again launched an attack on the Red-Haired Pirates."

As he spoke, the man, whose lower body resembled an egg, patted the newspaper in his hand.

"Today's newspapers have it in the news again. This man seems to have set his sights on the Red-Haired Pirates, and has challenged them many times, but each time he has ended in defeat."

"So, they still can't grasp the situation, huh?!"

The lion-mane tribe scoffed at this, "Do they really think the Four Emperors are so easily defeated?!"

"If it were the Straw Hat Pirates challenging one of the Four Emperors, I might follow up and pay some attention. As for them..."

The disdain and sarcasm in his words were very strong.

~~~~~~~~~

[This is the first chapter, updated regularly. The following chapters will be posted tonight. Sorry!]

477 Another Yonko under their command?! A Mink Tribe banquet!! This is not the scene he wanted to see!!

"Indeed, the Straw Hat Pirates are the ones worth paying attention to and following up on, but they've been making quite a stir lately."

The tall man in the pink egg-patterned outfit nodded in agreement.

"If we could bring them under our wing, Mom would be so happy!"

The lion fur tribe was lost in their daydreams.

"This is impossible~BON!!"

The tall man shook his head. "They might even become another formidable rival to Mom."

"A formidable rival?"

"Hmm, just based on that mysterious form, and the strength to send a Marine Admiral flying with a single punch..."

The egg-shaped man adjusted his sunglasses. "And the crew's behavior, and the current bounty."

"They have already gained the qualifications and power to challenge their mother!!"

"Is that so... Gah~~~"

The lion-mane tribe exclaimed in amazement, "Who knew that rookie pirates these days are already this amazing?!"

"This is the kind of performance a 'supernova' on the high seas should deliver!!"

"Speaking of supernovae, not to mention this year's, last year's supernovae also made some moves."

The long-legged man with the egg-like appearance patted the newspaper in his hand and said in a very teasing tone.

"Last year's 'Supernova'?! I remember it was someone called Pirate Prince, Cavendish the White Horse, the guy who loved to show off, right?"

"That's right, it's that guy. It seems that because the Straw Hat Pirates stole the limelight, he chose to submit to the World Government and become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea? Is this the latest news?"

"Yes, not only him, but also the [Treasure Hunter] and [Whitebeard Jr.], the new list of Shichibukai members has been announced~BON."

"The World Government's actions are really fast, wow... It seems the situation is getting increasingly unstable. We'd better go back sooner rather than later for safety~~~"

The lion-mink tribe had already prepared to disembark and climb Zou Island.

Before he left, he turned back and asked the egg-shaped, long-legged man:

"Aren't you really going to come with me to take a look, Baron Egg?"

"No need, BON. I'm afraid that if I see Pedro, I won't be able to resist wanting to kill him again... I even feel a sharp pain in my left eye just from hearing his name."

"...Okay, I got it, Gaa. By the way, you also think that Brother Pedro is a respectable person, don't you?"

"While I admire him, that doesn't stop me from considering him an enemy!! Human emotions are very complex, Pekoms!!"

"Then I'll go up alone."

With that, Pekoms, a member of the Lion Mink Tribe and a combatant of the Big Mom Pirates, prepared to go to Zou Island to find his savings.

However, just as he approached the giant elephant's foot...

"Huh? Whose pirate ship is this, gahoo?"

His small eyes, hidden behind his sunglasses, naturally caught sight of the two boats moored around the elephant.

"The markings on those two sails... the Mammoth? Jack the Drought's ship? The Beasts Pirates?!?"

"And... the Straw Hat Pirates?!"

Pekoms was startled. "Why would the pirate ships of the other Four Emperors, and that most vicious supernova in history, come here...?"

He paused abruptly as he spoke, then abruptly raised his head.

"Could it be...everyone?!"

Thinking of some bad consequences, Pokémon frantically climbed onto the elephant's leg.

Elephant is over 10,000 meters tall, but thanks to Togemus's agility, it moves forward at a rapid pace.

However, because it was so long, it still took him quite a bit of time.

"Everyone, please be alright!! Waaah!!"

Pokemus's tongue dangled out due to the intense crawling and panting.

Saliva and spittle flew everywhere, and the strong wind lashed against him, but he paid no attention to it.

At this moment, Pokhomus's heart was filled with anxiety, his mind preoccupied with the safety of his homeland and his people.

"Nothing can happen!!!"

With this thought in mind, he darted to the back of the elephant, which was the entrance to the furry duchy.

The sight of the completely destroyed city entrance, complete with alarm devices, plunged Pokhomus's spirits into despair.

The thing he least wanted to see still happened.

"These footprints are... from a mammoth?!"

The huge footprints on the ground made Pokhomus clench his fists instantly.

"It really is [Drought] Jack!!"

Recalling the legend that the other's trodden path would leave nothing but desolation, a flame burned ever brighter in Pokémon's heart.

"If anything really happens to anyone, I'll never forgive you!!"

"[Drought] Jack, Beasts Pirates..."

Pokémon went berserk, his lion mane flaring wildly even without wind.

"La la la..."

Suddenly, I heard a commotion coming from ahead.

Pokémon charged forward without hesitation.

As he drew closer to the city, suddenly, in the distance, he vaguely saw the figure of Jack the Drought and his iconic straw hat.

"Stop it, all of you! Waaah!!!"

A tortoise shell instantly appeared on his body, and he roared as he charged forward.

"If you have a problem, come at me! Don't you dare lay a hand on my fellow countrymen... uh?!"

Pokemus walked up to them with great confidence, but just as he was about to deliver a passionate speech, he abruptly stopped.

He stared in astonishment at the harmonious scene of people drinking beverages and eating barbecued food from large and small cups, with a campfire burning continuously in the middle.

Pokemus: "..."

Waaah, this isn't what I expected!

He turned his head mechanically and saw Jack the Drought lying unconscious on the ground, and a group of dejected Beast Pirates tied up there groaning.

And the Straw Hat Pirates~

(cfbg)

"That's Captain Luffy, right? Why is he fighting with the Saga crew for a piece of meat?"

"And there's also Roronoa Zoro, the Pirate Hunter, who's having a drinking contest with the Musketeers?!"

"[Black Leg] Sanji is grilling and cooking..."

Despite Pekoms's blank expression, the Straw Hat Pirates seemed to have integrated well into the group.
