One Piece: At the start, defeat Momonosuke and take Yamato to sea.

Chapter 118 I Have a Group of Cute and Beautiful Princesses

The capital of the Kingdom of Taya.

This time, the Luo Ji Pirates did not choose to enter openly.

All the prisoners were put back into the Scroll Prison, and even the Ark Maxims were put into the Scroll World.

The members of the Luo Ji Pirates transformed into different appearances one by one through the Transformation Gate.

Given the average intelligence of people in the One Piece world, probably very few would be able to recognize Luo Ji and other wanted criminals.

"Robin, Violet, intelligence gathering is your forte. Find out everything about the Wilderness for me."

"Leo, Bian, Vika, and Corton, the four of you will go and protect and assist Robin and Violet respectively."

Luo Ji, dressed in aristocratic attire, arranged for the two intelligence experts to gather useful information and also sent four little people to help.

He also took other women and children to gather information and have some fun.

"Understood!"

Robin and Violet each left with two dwarfs.

Both Robin's Flower-Flower Fruit ability and Violet's Gaze-Gaze ​​Fruit ability are excellent for stealing information.

Robin's extended eyes and ears, Violet's telepathy, clairvoyance, and telepathy are all very useful.

"This outfit is too complicated!"

Yamato, dressed in a gorgeous princess outfit, immediately started complaining after Robin and Violet left.

Meanwhile, girls like Rebecca, Bonnie, and Jade were dressed in princess Lolita outfits, looking both elegant and beautiful.

"Never mind, I'll get you a different set."

Luo Ji activated the Fufu Fruit ability again, dressing Yamato in a Jinyiwei flying fish uniform. He looked very handsome, except for his bulging chest, which suggested he was quite voluptuous.

"This is much more comfortable than that princess outfit! I'm going to play the bodyguard! Anyone who dares to mess with us, I'll take them down!"

Yamato smiled with satisfaction, then shouldered his spiked club and led the way.

“Lord Luo Ji, I still want to be your maid. I can’t play the princess.”

Baby5 quickly changed back into a high-class maid outfit and naturally stood a little further back.

"Then I'll be the housekeeper!"

Xia Li changed her clothes and even put on gold-rimmed glasses, her face cold and pretty.

"Do whatever you like, you can do whatever you want."

Luo Ji chuckled softly, and then led the women on a tour of the capital city of the Kingdom of Taya.

He was curious to know what was so special about the country where barbarians were willing to go to jail.

It must be said that this member state is very prosperous, belonging to a medium-to-large-sized country in the South China Sea. It feels even more powerful and prosperous than the Kingdom of Alabasta.

No wonder Aramaki was reluctant to leave this country to become a pirate.

In fact, the defensive capabilities of many member states are quite good.

After the World Government launched the global conscription, a large number of combat forces were drawn from the ranks, including many strong individuals with the strength of lieutenant generals and major generals, which aroused dissatisfaction among many member states.

Many of the lieutenant generals who appeared in the Battle of Egghead Island were not lieutenant generals from the General Staff who participated in the Battle of Marineford.

This global conscription left various military forces depleted, which triggered the subsequent "Eight-Nation Revolution".

The revolutionary army overthrew eight member states, greatly boosting its morale.

This may also be one of the key events leading to the collapse of world governments.

After all, the forced conscription of the global military has already provoked anger and dissatisfaction among many member states.

···

"The Kingdom of Taya is known as the Kingdom of Forests. It is a country full of various forests and plants, and also an important timber trading country."

Through her interactions with Violet and Robin, Shirley also enjoys reading and organizing information, learning about the sea and various other things.

Now that she's acting as the temporary 'housekeeper,' she needs to make a good impression.

"Forest country?"

Luo Ji stroked his chin, becoming somewhat curious. He wondered if the Forest Country had attracted the Forest-Forest Fruit, or if the Forest-Forest Fruit user had created the Forest Country.

Some high-level Devil Fruits always appear on islands with similar properties.

Or it could be eaten by some human with the same characteristics.

The magnificent attire of Luo Ji and his entourage caused many commoners to instinctively keep their distance, fearing they might offend some noble.

Of course, the most important thing is Yamato, the domineering bodyguard carrying a spiked club, who frightened many people.

Luo Ji stood at a stall, holding a large stack of Berries, and began to inquire about the whereabouts of Huang Mu.

After some initial introductions, the story unfolds: from heroes of the capital and heroic police officers to a lecherous criminal who harassed a princess...

In short, whether it was a good reputation or a bad reputation, as long as the news was circulating openly, Luo Ji found out about it.

'Is it really that simple? A powerful, heroic police officer sentenced to prison just for harassment?'

'This is too childish.'

Luo Ji felt a bit of a problem. After all, the more serious Huang Mu's crime was, the more confident he was in 'rescuing Huang Mu from the fire' and getting him on board.

And now it's just this trivial matter.

No wonder Huang Mu was willing to go to jail rather than rebel and go to sea; it turns out he was waiting to be forgiven by the princess and then be released from prison to resume his original position.

But you've been in jail for so long for such a small thing? Are you brain-dead, Aramu?

With such strength, why can't they just go and demand an explanation themselves?

Luo Ji was speechless; things in this world were always so absurd.

Just like Ginny, the commander of the Revolutionary Army's Eastern Army, was captured by the Celestial Dragons and gave birth to Bonney.

Given Ginny's strength when she had a bounty of 190 million Berries a decade ago, she still couldn't kill a Celestial Dragon when she was insulted.

How strong must that Celestial Dragon be?

Is it the Knight of God or one of the Five Elders?

There's also Vander Decken IX of Fishman Island, Jinbe and Neptune, the Sun Pirates, and the King's Army, yet they haven't been able to capture a lone Fishman with Devil Fruit abilities for so many years.

This isn't about waiting for the main characters to boost their performance.

···

'If the powerful beings in this world have too high an IQ, I'll have a hard time controlling them.'

Luo Ji comforted himself, thinking that if he were to transmigrate into Im, the Great Pirate Era and the Four Emperors would be nothing but bullshit.

He can wipe out every single pirate with a bounty!

He can turn all destabilizing factors that threaten the rule of the world government into dust.

The World Government, with its 800-year history and such a good hand, has managed to play it so poorly.

Im, you're getting worse as you get older.

Luo Ji continued to take the women sightseeing. When Robin and Violet returned, the information they reported made Luo Ji realize that he knew things were not so simple.

Robin secretly learned that many nobles and generals were targeting Aramaki, and Violet even knew from the mind of a garrison commander that it was Count Harada Yukawa of the kingdom who was dealing with Aramaki.

"It turns out that the kingdom's nobles couldn't tolerate Huang Mu, a powerful commoner."

"I knew it! A little teasing of the princess wouldn't warrant such a severe sentence."

Luo Ji smiled, then suddenly kissed Princess Violet's pretty face, touched Princess Bonnie's pink hair with his left hand, and stroked Princess Mansherry's little head with his right hand.

"Come here, Yamato. Your bastard father is one of the Four Emperors, the Pirate Emperor of the New World. You're practically a princess. Come on, give me a kiss!"

Luo Ji chuckled mischievously, "Huang Mu, you'll go to jail for flirting with a princess, but I have a whole bunch of cute and beautiful princesses."

If he could successfully persuade Huang Mu to join the ship, wouldn't he be incredibly envious?
