The left hand holding the saber tightened slightly, and the word "justice" on the back of the flying squirrel's cloak moved automatically. There was no doubt that it was at this moment! He has become the biggest obstacle for Luffy and others facing the Merry!

Whether it was Luffy and Usopp who were facing the flying squirrel, or Sanji and others who were like falling into an ice cave on the deck, they all understood this at this moment.

"...It's over..."

(PS1: Hoho~ It’s finally time to write and let these bastards go to sea...)

(PS2: Hmm~ How to deal with Keya needs further explanation~ Anyone who has been contaminated can never escape~)

Break through the barriers!

A roar of thunder pierced the gloomy sky, and the sultry weather turned into a wild sea breeze almost instantly. The huge raindrops were like the roaring reverberation, and they were shot down from the air to the ground. The original upset The frenzy of confusion was replaced by downright chill almost in a breath.

The flying squirrel stood motionless in the rain, with only the navy cloak behind it flapping like a flag in the violent wind. Although it was only one person, the feeling of being like a natural chasm was still severe from the most direct angle. The ground was nailed into the hearts of the Straw Hats.

"Damn it...why do you have to..."

Nozhiko, who instinctively hid behind the mast of the Merry, subconsciously tightened her grip on the rifle in her hand, but she knew very well that this was not a posture of preparation for battle at all, but an act that was infinitely close to psychological comfort. Even if she didn't talk about the difference in combat power, she had already served in the navy, and she had almost no motivation to draw a sword towards the vice admiral in front of her.

"Lieutenant General...this is really lucky..."

Reluctantly getting off Luffy's shoulders and standing up, Zoro tried his best to pose as a swordsman. In any case, the flying squirrel in front of her was undoubtedly a master of swordsmanship. In this case, she had no reason to escape in front of him. .

In this silent confrontation, Luffy raised his hand to buckle the straw hat on his head, and showed a signature smile on his face. There was still no fear in his tone, but he was as casual as talking to passers-by. He said, "Um...uncle, you're blocking our way, can you give way?"

Such words made Kebi on the Merry instinctively cover his mouth with his hands. He could hardly imagine what terrible things would happen next. If we are blocked here, is there any hope?

"Monkey...d. Luffy."

Standing in the rain, the flying squirrel's words were not loud, but they still easily penetrated the noisy rain around him. It could be heard that his tone was quite complicated, and even contained an inexplicable sense of contradiction: "You. ..Where are you going?”

"Ah? You know me~ That's good. I want to go to sea. As you can see, I have found a partner to go to sea with."

He was laughing easily. Luffy obviously did not think that the flying squirrel in front of him was a bad person. As a person with a flawed IQ, his intuition could easily distinguish the good and evil of human nature. There was no doubt that the flying squirrel was decent. , making him not an enemy that must be defeated in Luffy's eyes.

"Your grandfather...the hero of the navy, Mr. Monchi D. Karp, is a person I have always admired. What's more, the prime minister's family in this country is the Monchi family. As a garrison in the navy, of course I will know you."

Rain dripped down the flying squirrel's rock-like face, but the vice-admiral seemed oblivious and just lowered his tone slightly: "So... for your grandfather's sake, tell me, you want to What are you going to do at sea?"

This is showing favoritism.

There is no doubt that Luffy and his team can be completely characterized as criminals who endanger Bellemere by taking Princess Keya with them. Even if Flying Squirrel captures them all indiscriminately, there is no reason for this. This kind of questioning might give Arrita and others an excuse to attack him.

However, since Flying Squirrel is an upright naval admiral, there is one person he cannot bypass, and that is Luffy's grandfather, Lieutenant General Garp. As the legend who personally captured the Pirate King, Garp is completely the common idol of all the navies of that generation, and this achievement is also worthy of commemoration by all navies who pursue the path of peace. The flying squirrel would ask this, which was actually a subtle plea to Luffy to consider Garp's identity and position.

This feeling can undoubtedly be detected. People who know Luffy's identity, such as Zoro and Sanji, can hear the implication of the flying squirrel. However, they also knew very well that the only person who could make the choice was Luffy, the captain.

And in the rare silence, the smile on Luffy's face disappeared. No matter how heartless he usually was, his responsibility as a captain made him naturally understand that he had to make a choice at this time.

"I'm sorry, uncle. Tell grandpa for me that I don't want to be a navy. I have decided to be a pirate and I am ready to go to sea now."

Finally, he lowered his arms from the straw hat on his head, and Luffy's eyes became completely serious. Looking directly into the flying squirrel's eyes, the straw hat boy spoke calmly and firmly.

"Because I am the man who wants to become...the Pirate King."

Boom!

A violent thunder exploded in the clouds above the dock, and the flying squirrel's eyes shrank slightly under the flash of electric light. Wordlessly, the Vice Admiral slowly raised the sword in his left hand and clicked his right hand. Holding the hilt of the sword tightly, there is no doubt that Luffy must pay the price for his choice no matter what.

Especially when he said that he wanted to become the Pirate King in front of Flying Squirrel, who was the Vice Admiral of the Navy.

"Crushed!!"

Sanji's violent shouts suddenly came from behind the flying squirrel. Realizing that the battle was unavoidable, Sanji, who had always claimed to be a knight, gritted his teeth and made this sneak attack. She was well aware of the terrifying strength of the flying squirrel in front of her. , this is precisely the choice to give up one's own personal dignity in order to strive for as much hope as possible.

However, the absolute gap in strength cannot be made up by a few small moves. The flying squirrel, who still maintained the state of drawing his sword, didn't even look back. He just bent his elbow sideways coldly and efficiently. With his exquisite side movement, he easily avoided Sanji's full blow, and that seemingly careless elbow was even more... It directly knocked Sanji backwards, almost giving the impression that Sanji flew back the same way he flew over.

There is no doubt that for the Straw Hats and the others at this moment, the Flying Squirrel almost didn't need to use any specific moves. It was just a step forward, and the tall figure came to Luffy's back with incredible agility. Before the straw hat boy could react at all, the long knife with the scabbard had already pressed hard on his head, and then slammed his whole body onto the hard ground!

Zoro, who was just about to draw his sword, felt a pain in his abdomen before he could take action. His whole body was kicked away by the flying squirrel, and he smashed into the wall on one side with a bang. This simple blow had already caused him to lose his strength. The green-haired swordsman who had consumed too much before could hardly get up again. As for Usopp, while holding Keya in his arms, he was completely stunned by the rapid defeat of Sanji and Zoro, and was unable to do anything at all.

"There must be a limit to your willfulness!"

Along with the thunder in the sky, the flying squirrel looked down at Luffy in front of him and roared angrily: "You are the grandson of the naval hero Garp! And the Pirate King is the heinous person who was captured by the old navy! Since ancient times, pirates have been The main reason for spreading disaster and chaos in this sea! We, the navy, are fighting bloody battles just to one day drive away all the borers from the sea! So that this sea can gain peace!"

The flying squirrel, who became more and more angry as he spoke, picked up Luffy's collar with one hand, and then brought him in front of him. His tone was full of hatred that could not be concealed: "I'll ask you again! What on earth are you going to do?! "

"Damn~! I told you! I want to go to sea and become a pirate! And eventually become the Pirate King!"

Luffy, who tried hard to pull the flying squirrel's arm but was unable to move him at all, gritted his teeth. With such an answer, the anger in the flying squirrel's eyes finally calmed down. Looking at Luffy struggling on his arm, the veteran vice-admiral took a deep breath, and then said calmly: "In this case... I can only send you to the deep sea prison... You are too dangerous. I can see the same stubbornness as Mr. Garp in your eyes. If you are left alone, I am afraid you will really become the Pirate King one day, so..."

"So can you show your favor?"

A sudden word sounded beside the flying squirrel. And an arm stretched out from under the cloak caught the flying squirrel's shoulder holding Luffy in time. Only then did he realize the fact that he had been approached. Even if he was as determined as the flying squirrel, he could At this moment, I couldn't help but be stunned.

Damn...evil~

Holding his belly, Sanji reluctantly climbed up from the deck of the Meri. There was no doubt that the flying squirrel didn't really move at all, perhaps because he felt that treating them as women was not worth using too much force.

But what shocked Sanji was precisely that the flying squirrel, who was invincible a moment ago, was now standing there like a puppet, barely daring to move.

Standing next to the flying squirrel was a tall man wearing a dark green cloak. Under the brief flash of lightning, the red facial lines on his left cheek were clearly visible.

"How could you..."

Gritting his teeth and looking at the person beside him, Flying Squirrel obviously knew the identity of this person: "Monkey.d.Dragon!"

"Hehehe, because I know that I have become the prime minister of a country inexplicably, I came here to take a look."

The tall man known as the dragon spoke in a calm tone, but the fingers holding the flying squirrel's shoulders tightened slightly, and the flying squirrel's fingers holding Luffy involuntarily moved away. Luffy, who had escaped from trouble, instinctively stepped back a few steps. Stepping forward, he raised his head curiously and looked at the tall man in front of him who had saved him.

"What do you mean by being arrogant? You have become the world government's number one criminal, are you going to let this child follow in your footsteps?"

He was very aware of the strength gap between himself and the dragon, but the flying squirrel's gritted teeth could not cover up the pain. In response, the dragon just shook his head slightly, and his tone returned to calm: "No, what this child is going to embark on is... The path to becoming the Pirate King, you just heard it..."

Usopp on one side finally reacted, and hurriedly helped Zoro on the other side with his rolling long nose, and then climbed onto the Meri while carrying Keya on his back as if fleeing. On the deck, and because of this sudden storm, the entire sea surface was howling and roaring violently, as if inspecting this group of pirates who were about to go to sea.

"Hey~! Boy, what are you doing standing still?! Your friends are waiting for you."

A hand pressed on the flying squirrel's shoulder, and the dragon's eyes turned to Luffy in front of him. When the eyes of the two parties met, there were not many other words.

Picking up his straw hat, Luffy turned back and ran towards the Meri. His tone was straightforward: "Brothers~! We are going to sea~!"

"Hi...Hi~! But the weather...I know..."

Shivering, he obeyed Luffy's order. As a navigator, Kirby also began to hurriedly try to pull up the sail. When he lifted the anchor on the bow of the ship, Sanji obviously realized something from the name spoken by the flying squirrel. , but now is undoubtedly not the time to pursue this point.

"Damn it! Fire!"
