As they nodded, saliva dripped from their mouths, splashing everywhere.

Brooke: "..."

Judging from your formation, I'm not sure if I can escape unscathed if I join you.

No, let alone escaping unscathed, whether they can even come back safely with only a few bones behind is a question.

I'll just stay home by myself, yay!

He immediately declined the sincere invitation from Duke Inuarashi and the other Mink Tribe members, who felt a pang of regret.

It's clear that they were even more disappointed than Brook, who was rejected by Nami.

Well, after all, they are the unique race they've always dreamed of; such a skeletal structure... it's simply irresistibly alluring to them!

"Link, where in this country are there any real ninjas?!"

After everyone had decided on their next actions, Luffy, who was about to set off, suddenly remembered something and asked Link a question.

"If we're talking about ninjas, the best and most powerful ninjas on this island are currently led by the current shogun, Kurozumi Orochi, and they form what is known as the Oniwabanshu."

Link thought for a moment and then truthfully told Luffy what had happened.

As for whether Luffy will be able to find the true ninja he's been longing for...

Let's just leave it to fate.

"General Kurozumi Orochi? Fine, then I'll go find his... what's-his... the Imperial Guard!!"

Luffy was mumbling something incoherently, and then he asked a question.

"By the way, where are those guys?"

other people:"……"

Can't you figure out the whole problem at once before you start yelling and screaming?!

"The Kurozumi Orochi lives in the Flower Capital, in the Shogun's residence under the cherry blossom tree."

Ayu, who was standing next to her, honestly told her what she knew.

"It is said that he has many skilled fighters under his command, including not only ninjas but also very powerful samurai ronin!"

And they were even kindly reminding me.

"A powerful samurai ronin?!"

Zoro also looked over upon hearing the sound, and immediately smiled:

"It seems my next destination is quite clear."

"The City of Flowers?"

Sanji was also pondering for a moment, "That seems to be the capital of this country."

"In other words, the women there are of the highest quality, and it's also the place with the most developed bathhouse industry..."

The mere mention of a bathhouse makes Sanji feel like his headache and backache have disappeared, and his mind is filled with yellow... those golden and orange thoughts.

At this moment, the Straw Hat Pirates' three strongest fighters simultaneously set their sights on the Flower Capital.

And besides them~

"The City of Flowers? That must be where all the finest craftsmen gather~"

Franky was also resting his chin on his hand, clearly having some thoughts of his own.

"If possible, I could go there and take a good look..."

"The most prosperous capital city in a country?"

Usopp was also quite eager to try it out there.

"It might be possible to exchange it for some local specialties, and see if we can collect some good stuff."

He twitched his long nose, clearly quite interested in such things.

Having decided on their next destination, the Straw Hat crew planned to set off immediately.

But~

"Link, where do you plan to go next?"

Before leaving, the foolish captain remembered his right-hand man.

"As for me? I'm not in a hurry to go to the Flower Capital."

Link first made his intentions clear, dispelling Luffy's idea of ​​dragging him along.

"I have places I want to go~"

He smiled and said, "Besides, I also had things I wanted to do before I set off."

"Is that so?!"

Luffy nodded understandingly, then looked at Nami and the others:

"What about you guys? Do you want to come with us?!"

"No, not at all!!"

Nami, Robin, Chopper, Jinbe, Brook, and the others all raised their arms in unison and waved them in front of them.

The intention to refuse was very clear.

Well, assuming Link, such a stabilizing force, doesn't go to the Flower Capital~

Luffy, Zoro, Sanji… Leaving aside the latter two, just Luffy alone, and with the unwavering determination to find the shogun Kurozumi Orochi and his ninja army…

Nami and the others felt that the Flower Capital was unlikely to be peaceful for some time to come.

After all, their captain is definitely not a peaceful person; no matter what kind of environment he is in, he can stir up a lot of trouble.

They have absolute trust in Luffy in this respect.

Countless facts have already proven that their captain is indeed a collection of troublesome individuals.

Wherever he goes, there is bound to be conflict.

Therefore, since we've already decided to split up again, the best course of action is to completely distance ourselves from him and stay away from him!

Can't you see how far they've all distanced themselves from Luffy?!

Especially Jinbe, this blue chubby guy has also learned this, and is firmly on Nami and Chopper's side!

"Is that so?"

Luffy adjusted his straw hat, seemingly unaware of anything amiss, and instead greeted someone.

"Then we'll set off first!!"

Having said that, he immediately raised his arms high and shouted to the sky, "Wano Country, here I come!!"

In Luffy's eyes, this brand new adventure on a new island has once again begun.

580 The group sets off!! Each headed towards their respective destination!! To see the courtesans of the brothel!!

"Goodbye, Ayu, Uncle!!"

After Luffy finished shouting, he also said goodbye to Tama and Tenguyama Hitetsu.

Then, without thinking, he started running towards the exit outside the dense forest, laughing as he went.

"Are you leaving already? Brother Luffy!!"

Ayu never expected Luffy to be so decisive and efficient.

"us……"

She was anxious to say something, but someone patted her on the shoulder instead.

"That guy has always been like that."

Zoro was already used to it, and just casually remarked.

"In his view, as long as they were still on the island, it wasn't a formal separation."

"If you want to meet, you'll have plenty of opportunities in the future~"

Having said that, he picked up his wine gourd and prepared to follow Luffy's footsteps.

"This samurai brother..."

Ayu paused for a moment, then quickly said.

"Needless to say, that guy will definitely come back to you, provided, of course, that he doesn't cause any huge trouble in the Flower Capital."

Clearly, Zoro was well aware of his captain's carefree and thoughtless nature.

This trip to the City of Flowers may well be destined to be anything but peaceful.

But this was exactly what he wanted.

Only when the water is stirred up and becomes chaotic can the 20 large fish hidden at the bottom of the water be brought to the surface.

Only then will I be able to meet a true master swordsman and have a proper duel with him!

"No, I knew you would definitely take action!"

Ayu quickly replied, "I know that I am currently lacking in knowledge and skills and cannot help you. Insisting on following me would only make me a burden to you..."

She saw this very clearly: "You are definitely going to do great things, so I had no intention of stopping you, much less entanglement with you..."

"Then what do you mean?"

Zoro continued walking without turning his head, asking questions as he went.

"What I mean is... Brother Samurai, you're going the wrong way!!"

Ayu pointed one finger in the direction Luffy was heading, and looking at Zoro, who was going in the completely opposite direction, almost in the opposite direction, she muttered something:

"Brother Samurai, the direction you're heading is Boro Town. The direction Luffy is heading is the road that leads to the Flower Capital."

Sauron: "..."

cough~

He immediately coughed twice, quickly turned around, then lowered his head and changed his position again.

How embarrassing!!

In front of so many people, his terrible sense of direction kicked in again, it was really...

A famous scene where someone died on the spot.

Looks like I really need to ask Chopper about this terrible sense of direction someday... Hmm, Chopper said it's incurable, so I'll have to ask Link. If all else fails, I'll see if I can find some kind of navigation tool or something to correct my sense of direction...

Zoro continued to ponder, then heard Tama's voice again, a mixture of helplessness and surprise:

“Brother Samurai, you’ve gone the wrong way again. That’s the direction you came from. If you keep going, you’ll end up at the port leading to Date Port.”

Zoro: "...@#¥%*!!"

Was the direction wrong again?!

"Really are……"

Nami facepalmed. "How did you manage to go to the wrong place twice in a row?!"

On this site, the small wooden house is directly to the south, meaning that there are only three directions to move forward: east, west, and north.

The road to the west was the one they came in from, Boluo Town was to the north, and the direction to the Flower Capital was to the east.

The result~~~

Zoro managed to eliminate two correct answers in a three-choice question, which is simply...

Nami was at a loss for words.

"And Captain Luffy clearly headed east just now..."

Jinbe stared at Zoro in astonishment, "With others scouting ahead, you still chose the wrong path?!"

He seemed to be deep in thought.

It seems Zoro's skill at getting lost is perhaps far more impressive than his swordsmanship!

Sauron: "..."
