Chapter five hundred and twentieth seventh, the status quo of the Straw Hats
The Great Route, the City of Seven Waters.
The Water City is exceptionally quiet tonight. The annual carnival has ended with the arrival of the Water Gods, and the crowds have dispersed. In addition, the Straw Hats, who had made a fuss in the past few days, caused a disturbance in the Water City and Judiciary Island, allowing the navy to directly patrol.
The density has increased by one level, which will undoubtedly make things worse for the Seven Waters Capital, where pirate business is increasingly difficult to do.
At least until the end of this year, the water capital will not be able to return to its former lively situation.
"Have you really decided to do this? Luffy?"
This is a warehouse in the No. 1 Dockyard of Carrera Shipbuilding Company. Standing by the window, Robin looked at the little man in front of him with a strange color in his eyes with some hesitation.
"Ah, it's decided."
Hearing this, Monkey D. Luffy, the great pirate with a bounty of 330 million, put a straw hat on his head and struggled to sit up from the bed.
"It hurts!"
"Luffy, lie down quickly, you can't move yet!"
Chopper lowered his voice and looked at the bleeding bandage with anxious eyes.
Now that the situation in the sea has stabilized, the battles experienced by the Straw Hats are far less intense than in the original work. In the battle on Judiciary Island, they faced CP0 led by Rob Lucci and almost escaped with a narrow escape.
However, Luffy shook his head and held Chopper down, saying, "Don't worry, Chopper, I'm much more comfortable now."
Then he noticed the blood seeping out from under the fur of Chopper's arm, and he clenched his teeth.
"sorry!"
He lowered his head.
"It's me who has brought everyone down. If I could be stronger... Meili..."
Everyone was silent.
A lot of things have happened to them recently. First, they were surrounded by the navy in the Chambord Islands. Sauron tried his best but failed to stop the navy. The Merry was penetrated through the belly of the ship and could not move.
Later, with the help of the revolutionary army, everyone managed to escape.
But they never thought that as soon as they returned to the Seven Waters City to take refuge, Carter Frame, a wanted criminal from the government, came to seek revenge. As a result, CP0 took the opportunity to defeat them one by one, and they were taken back to Justice Island together with Robin to face trial.
.
Fortunately, Usopp parted ways with everyone because of Luffy's order to abandon the ship, so he escaped. After learning about this, he ventured into Judiciary Island under the pseudonym "Sniper King" and rescued them.
Then came something even more distressing.
Meili, who was clearly abandoned in Shampoo Land, actually came here with the waves and covered their departure under the gunfire of the Demon-Slaying Order. Nami cried heartbrokenly at that time. She didn't control Meili at all. It was Meili's choice.
sailing direction.
Finally, after hearing Merry's ship spirit's apologetic farewell, the Straw Hats had to accept a reality.
The first companion to leave them appeared.
"It's not your fault, Luffy."
The first person to speak turned out to be Usopp. Zoro looked up at him and said nothing.
"We all underestimated each other. Although it's hard to hear, I used to naively believe that as long as you were here, there would be no opponent I couldn't defeat."
"But that's not true!"
Usopp cried.
"...It wasn't you who killed Meili, it was our naivety!"
The cruel mantra made everyone bow their heads.
Indeed, they are a little naive.
Especially the initial fighting strength of Tieshan Jiao, Luffy, Sanji and Zoro. They have defeated many opponents all the way from the East China Sea. Even if they are reminded over and over again that there is danger ahead, they are still naive.
Thinking that you can defeat your opponent.
until today!
"So I decided!"
Luffy wiped his tears and looked at his friends seriously: "It is too dangerous to enter the new world with our current strength. We need to become stronger to continue the next adventure!"
"Hmph, I see. Are you getting stronger?"
With a "click", he pressed Hedao Yimonji back into the scabbard, and Zoro showed a relaxed smile on his face: "I thought you were going to give up, Captain!"
"In that case, I will be the first to chop you to death!"
Everyone: "..."
Seeing clearly the killing intent in Sauron's eyes, everyone took a breath.
This bastard is not joking?!
"So... what to do?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Sanji sighed helplessly and said.
"If you want to become stronger, you need a place to train, right? Staying in the Capital of Seven Waters is definitely not possible."
"..."
"Meili also died to protect us. How to avoid the navy's spy and leave here is also a problem."
Luffy:"……"
Sanji's mouth twitched wildly when he saw this: "Is it difficult... could it be..."
"Hahahahaha!"
The laughter suddenly dissipated the dark clouds hanging over the Straw Hats.
No matter how painful memories he faces, Luffy is still the familiar Luffy.
But at this time, a strange voice sounded.
"If you want to leave, leave it to me."
"Consider it my repayment of your kindness for rescuing me."
Clang!
Sauron drew his weapon and prepared for battle.
Squeak!
Looking at the tall man pushing the door open, Robin frowned: "How did you find this, Carter Frame?!"
"Tch, this is where I grew up after all. I can tell if anything is wrong at a glance, and so can everyone else."
Franky closed the warehouse door and looked at the Straw Hats: "But don't worry, the entire Carrera Shipbuilding Company hates the World Government and CP0, and no one will report you."
"but……"
He changed the subject.
"That doesn't mean I forgive you, Nico Robin!"
"Oh, is it so?"
Robin showed no sign of weakness and crossed his hands in front of his chest: "If you want revenge, just come!"
When being taken away by CP0, the long-lost fear made her almost give up. In just a short time, she has truly regarded the Straw Hats as her family. Everyone was targeted by CP0 because of her. If her death can save Luffy and the others
In exchange for a glimmer of hope, my miserable life has gained some value.
Then he was beaten.
Luffy, who had just been opened by Usopp without even taking off the sea stone handcuffs, rushed to her side and woke her up with a headbutt.
From then on, she decided not to give up her life easily.
The traitor's curse, the evil scourge that brings misfortune wherever it goes, will definitely be changed here!
However, Franky turned a deaf ear to the fighting spirit in Robin's eyes. He looked past her directly at Luffy on the hospital bed and said, "You are not a qualified captain, Monkey D. Luffy!"
"Such a good ship has been turned into such a mess by you!"
Robin, Zoro, Luffy: "..."
Wait, is something wrong?
However, Frankie ignored him and started spitting.
"That's the legendary ship spirit!"
He looked at everyone: "I have seen so many ships in the Capital of Seven Waters, and I have dismantled thousands of them with my own hands. I have never seen a single ship spirit."
"I only met on your boat, but the result..."
Speaking of this, Frankie glared at everyone: "Who among you is responsible for repairing the ship?"
Zoro slowly raised his hand, his mouth twitched, and he looked at Usopp who was hiding behind him and dragging his elbow up.
Frankie: "..."
"Hahahahaha!"
At this time, Luffy laughed loudly, and immediately grimaced in pain.
After comforting Chopper next to him, Luffy said, "You are really interesting!"
"I heard that you don't have anywhere to go, how about coming with us?"
"It just so happens that we are also short of a boatman on the ship."
Frankie: "..."
Straw Hats: "..."
………………
To be honest, it has already been two or three months since I took one day off at the beginning of the month, right?
I originally made an appointment to go out with my girl today, and I set a timer for asking for leave. However, I was woken up by the air conditioner at 5:30 in the morning and found out that there was a 5-5 break.
So what do you think I should update today or not?
Updated and become scabs.
If you don't update, you will be forced to fall in line.
In order to come back to code, that girl is ignoring me now. How can I break it?
That’s not how rights protection works.
Regarding this wave of rhythm, please don't miss the point. Arousing widespread attention is the primary goal. Calling for an end to the epidemic is just a means to achieve the goal. It can be a march to protest, a sit-in to block doors, etc., it is just a means.
Obviously we have initially succeeded.
But in the end, what the hell is insulting the author?
A warrior is the one who stops updating. If he keeps updating, he is not a coward, right?
Are you going to support me if you don’t eat and subscribe?
Do you believe it or not that Poujie, who is different from Dashu and writes articles full-time, is crying when he sees the recent decline in subscriptions?
I beg you all, please be a sensible person and don’t be used as a weapon by someone with ulterior motives (To be continued...)
After coding for an hour, I found that there are some things that I don’t need to say for the time being.
Tomorrow is the symposium, so let’s see if it’s possible.
I'm in a bad mood, so I bought two cans of beer to cool off first. There are some glitches when I get back, so I'll see if I can code the second chapter.
