Chapter 75 This is simply an angel!
In the icy sea, two pirate ships are sailing steadily on the sea.
Since the ferocious penguins had already been killed by Xi Yan, there were no obstacles this time, and they advanced towards the Achino family's headquarters almost without any hindrance.
We will arrive at our destination soon.
Behind the Thousand Sunny, on the pirate ship being pulled by ropes, Stanson and the others stared blankly at the Thousand Sunny, clearly not yet having recovered their senses.
They only snapped out of their daze when they heard Luffy's voice. "Your strength is terrifying..." El said, looking at Luffy. "You took down those people so easily."
They had tried their best but still couldn't beat Brindy alone, yet the Straw Hat Pirates defeated them so easily.
"Of course, we're very strong!" Luffy grinned, showing his teeth.
"What's going on with that water dragon?"
"Ah, that's Xiyan's ninjutsu, isn't it amazing!"
"So powerful!" El exclaimed in shock, "Is that ninjutsu?!"
"The legendary ninjas are indeed more powerful than I imagined."
Such a person wouldn't be in danger even if they went to the New World, and might even be able to gain a foothold there!
"Hahaha, Xiyan is incredibly strong!" Luffy laughed.
Luffy was very happy when others praised his crewmates.
"No wonder they're a pirate crew with a total bounty exceeding 10 billion..." Stanson swallowed hard.
"Huh?!"
"Over 10 billion?!"
El and the others stared at Luffy in shock, their eyes practically bulging out.
They never imagined the bounty on this group would be so terrifying—it was a billion dollars!
Keep in mind that the captain of their Phoenix Pirates only has a bounty of 100 million Berries.
"Um?"
"Didn't I tell you?"
"No!" Al roared, opening his shark mouth.
If they had known how terrifying the other party was, they wouldn't have even entertained the thought.
Stanson: ....
It seems I really forgot to tell them, no wonder these guys are so bold.
"Luffy..."
'
Chopper ran out of the cabin, carrying his small backpack.
"Chopper, is the treatment over?"
"Yes." Chopper nodded and said, "The person has woken up."
After his treatment, the other person not only escaped danger but also regained mobility.
"Let's go then."
Chopper has done what he wanted to do, so there's no need for him to stay here any longer.
"Please...please wait a moment..."
A weak male voice came from inside the cabin, and then a man emerged with Gino's help.
"Mr. Pazelu, be careful."
"I'm fine."
Pazel shook his head, looked up at Luffy and said, "Are you the captain of this ship's doctor? Thank you."
"As you can see, all our things were stolen. We wanted to thank you, but..."
"It's nothing, I'm just respecting my ship's doctor's opinion."
"You're welcome," Chopper said with a smile. "I was just fulfilling my duty as a doctor."
Pazel pursed his lips; he hadn't expected to encounter such a pirate crew.
"I heard you're going to the New World?"
"ah."
"The new world is very dangerous," Pazel said.
As he spoke, a shadow fell over his eyes, as if he were thinking about how his first mate had died.
The meteorite that fell from the sky shattered his pirate dream in one blow.
The New World is not a place for ordinary players like them; venturing in rashly will only lead to certain death.
"Mr. Pazelu...."
"I'm fine." Pazel patted the little guy beside him, then looked at Luffy and said, "I want to remind you that the dangers there are beyond your imagination."
"You'll find out when you get there," Luffy said nonchalantly.
Even if it's dangerous?
"No matter what danger we encounter, we'll overcome it!" Luffy laughed. "We're very strong!"
Seeing the confident smile on Luffy's face, Pazel was momentarily stunned. At that moment, he seemed to see his past self.
He was so full of vigor back then, believing he would definitely become the Pirate King.
But the result was... the first mate was killed in battle, and they almost died in the New World as well.
"Really? Well, good luck to you then."
"Um."
"Chopper, let's go."
"profound!"
Watching the two figures gradually disappear into the distance, El quickly said, "Captain, they're planning to challenge the head of the Achino family. Let's prepare ourselves."
"What are you preparing?"
El paused for a moment, then said, "Of course, it's to prepare for battle!"
"We're going to take back the Phoenix Pirates' flag!"
"A pirate flag...?"
Pazelu looked up at his own mast, his expression somewhat complicated.
After a moment of silence, he said, "We don't need the pirate flag anymore."
Why?
"Because we are no longer pirates."
"Captain, you..."
El looked at Pazel in disbelief, never expecting him to say such a thing. Was this still the phoenix that never fell?
"Luffy, they...."
Tsubasa glanced back worriedly, wondering if something would go wrong.
"Chopper, they're not pirates anymore," Luffy said without turning his head. "Let's go."
"oh:
Chopper didn't say anything, walked over to Luffy, and hugged his leg.
"How dare Mr. Pazel say such a thing!"
Tears welled up in Gino's eyes immediately; he never expected that this person would lose even his spirit.
"Gino...:
"Even if Mr. Pazel doesn't want to continue being a pirate, I'm going to take the flag back!" Gino said and immediately ran towards Luffy.
"Ship's doctor, Mr. Luffy, please wait for me."
Luffy, upon hearing the sound, neither turned around nor launched back.
"Please take me with you!" Gino looked at Luffy earnestly and said, "I can fight alongside you too."
"Pirate battles are brutal, Gino."
"I'm not afraid!" Gino said resolutely, "I will definitely take back the Phoenix Pirates' flag!"
Even death?
Even if it means death!
Upon hearing Gino's resolute words, Luffy suddenly smiled.
"And me!"
"We're here too!"
El and the others rushed over, looking at Luffy with excitement and saying, "Please let us join the battle!"
"you?"
Pazel looked at his crew in disbelief, not understanding why they were still fighting under these circumstances. They had already lost, why did they still want to continue being pirates?
"Captain..." Keku glanced at Pazel and said, "I don't know why you've lost all your spirit, but I believe that phoenix will return sooner or later."
"That's right, so we absolutely must take back the pirate flag!"
"Please take us with you, gentlemen."
Hearing his companions' words, Pazel felt shocked, and his expression gradually became conflicted.
But when he thought about the fate of the first mate, his fire died out again.
Luffy didn't look at Pazel or the others, but simply smiled and said, "I didn't stop you from following me."
"If you're not afraid of death, then show some spirit."
After saying that, Luffy swung his hands out and grabbed the protrusion on the bow of the ship, saying, "This connecting rope will not be cut until we reach our destination."
"Whoosh~"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luffy launched himself and Chopper away, flying towards his own pirate ship and finally landing steadily on the deck.
"Clatter~"
"You're back."
Hearing the voice, west Yan turned around and looked at the two of them, saying, "That person has been cured?"
"Yes, we can move now." Chopper nodded and said, "As long as we don't engage in overly intense battles..."
The wound shouldn't cause any major problems.
After saying that, Chopper glanced at the two strangers on the deck and asked, "Who are they?"
Chopper glanced at Albel, then at Rilu, a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Especially Lilu, the little girl sitting side by side with Merry on the swing, seemed to be chatting happily with Merry, just like two little sisters, which made Chopper very surprised.
"That's the bounty hunter we were fighting just now," west Yan said. "Didn't you see him?"
"After Luffy returned, I was worried that something might have happened to the captain of that pirate crew, so I went to the cabin to check on him."
"No wonder you didn't know."
west Yan nodded in understanding, then explained, "These two are prisoners of war from this battle. We're keeping them to guide us."
As he spoke, west Yan glanced at Arubelu, as if to warn her.
Alberu shuddered and immediately lowered his head, saying, "Don't worry, I won't ask for any more fancy ones."
She had just hatched a plan to take a detour and delay the process as much as possible.
But the ninja still discovered her. With just one look from him, she saw an incredibly terrifying scene that almost scared her to death.
After this incident, Alberu became very obedient and dared not have any ulterior motives.
Chopper blinked. Although he didn't know what had happened, since west Yan had said so, he didn't need to care.
"Hey, Xiyan, be gentle with the lady!" Sanji said, handing the tea to Alberu.
"Miss Alberu, have some tea to warm yourself up~"
"Thank you so much," Alberu said.
Unexpectedly, this pervert was the one with the best attitude, which made Albel feel very complicated.
"Merry, I never imagined you were a legendary ship spirit." Sitting on the swing, Lilu looked at Meryl curiously and asked, "How were you born?"
Little Mary, who was sitting next to her, tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "Actually, I don't know either."
"One day I suddenly gained a body and was able to sneak out to help my friends repair the ship."
"Hey, let me tell you, when I was secretly repairing the ship, I really scared Usopp!"
As if she had thought of something interesting, Mei chuckled.
Usopp, who was not far away, was immediately annoyed. It was no wonder, a guy he didn't know suddenly appeared on the ship late at night to repair it and then gave him a smile.
From his perspective, it was like a shadowy figure baring its teeth at him in the fog—how was he supposed to know what it was?
As an ordinary person, it's good enough that he didn't wet himself in fear.
"Oh~"
"That guy named Usopp is really a coward~" Lilu said, glancing at Usopp intentionally or unintentionally, her eyes filled with a hint of cunning.
"Little girl, what did you say?!" Usopp said unhappily, "I am a great warrior of the sea!"
How could he be a coward?
"Lilu, don't talk nonsense~" Merry said, "Usopp isn't a coward, he's a real man who's been in countless battles!"
Even though Usopp often says cowardly things, he has never backed down when it comes to actually fighting.
Mary was aware of this.
"Merry...."
Soap was moved to tears. As expected, Merry understood him best. She was simply an angel!
"That's right, Usopp is very strong!" Chopper said. "I even fought alongside him in battle..."
"The tanuki... the tanuki is talking!!"
Lilu stared at Chopper in shock, never expecting that this pet-like little guy could speak human language.
"I'm not a tanuki!" Chopper angrily pointed to his antlers and said, "I'm a reindeer, a reindeer!!"
"You've got horns, haven't you!"
Seeing Chopper's displeased expression, Lilo said sincerely, "Oh, it's a reindeer. I'm sorry."
"Since you've apologized, I'll forgive you..."
"Wait, reindeer can't talk!"
Chopper: ...
So is that the key point?
"I'm a reindeer-man who ate the Human-Human Fruit," Chopper explained. "Remember that!"
"A Devil Fruit user, huh...?"
"Chopper is our ship's doctor," Mary explained. "His medical skills are amazing; there's almost no illness he can't cure."
"Huh?!"
"Wouldn't that make him a famous doctor!"
"Even if you praise me, I won't be happy," Chopper said, wriggling his body, looking extremely pleased.
This reaction surprised Lilu; was the other person just shy?
"Hahaha, they're so funny."
Luffy was immediately amused; it was really funny to see these kids playing together.
"What a clever little one," Nico Robin said with a smile, staring at Lilu.
"What do you mean?"
Nami glanced at Nico Robin curiously, not understanding what she was saying.
"Clearly, this little girl named Lilu has realized Meryl's position in our group," Nico Robin explained. "Becoming friends with her will at least prevent us from being killed."
Although they didn't originally intend to kill the little guy, the other party wouldn't think that way.
From Lilu's perspective, they were a group of vicious pirates, and who knew if they would suddenly turn on them and kill them?
But if she becomes good friends with Mary, Mary might plead for her, and she might be able to survive, or even save her sister.
It must be said that the other party is really smart, making full use of their age advantage.
But this little guy probably never imagined that Mary's innocence would make the two of them really good friends.
"That's quite a clever little guy," Nami said with a smile.
This intelligence reminded her of her past self.
"Hey everyone, we can already see the Achino family's building!" Franky shouted from the bow of the ship.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions immediately turned serious. Luffy adjusted his hat and said, "Brothers, prepare for battle."
"profound!"
