Why would a Saint Seiya become a pirate?

"Listen up, everyone! Be careful, especially around those idiot Celestial Dragons. Keep a low profile and don't get yourself into trouble!"

“They are all very arrogant and domineering. If we offend them and attract the navy, we will be in big trouble.”

Luffy and his crew verbally agreed, but once they arrived on the island, they were like wild horses, having fun in the streets and alleys.

However, when they saw the Celestial Dragons abusing the slaves they had bought, their relaxed and happy mood vanished instantly.

The sight before them shocked them immensely.

They then realized that the seemingly peaceful and joyful Sabaody Archipelago was actually incredibly corrupt and dark inside.

Those Celestial Dragons, relying on their status, wantonly trampled on the dignity of others and did whatever they pleased.

"These guys have gone too far!"

Luffy clenched his fists in anger, his eyes flashing with fury.

"Exactly, they don't even treat people like human beings!"

Zoro also said through gritted teeth.

However, because of their promise to Hachi, Luffy and the others put up with it for the time being.

In search of top-notch coating craftsmen, Hachi led Luffy and the others to a hotel called "Shakky's Rip-off Bar" in the Sabaody Archipelago.

Upon seeing the name, everyone wore expressions that were both amused and exasperated.

"Ugh, this name is definitely a black mark!"

Usopp pursed his lips and muttered a complaint.

As I entered the hotel, a beautiful woman greeted me; she was Xia Qi, the hotel's owner.

Xia Qi looked at the group of energetic young people in front of him, and a charming smile appeared on his lips.

"Welcome, little ones."

Shaki's voice is gentle yet captivating.

Xiao Ba quickly stepped forward to introduce them.

"Sister Shaki, they are members of the Straw Hat Pirates, our benefactors. We're here to find the coating craftsman."

Shaki looked Luffy and the others up and down, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"So you're the Straw Hat Pirates. You've become quite famous lately."

With Shaki's explanation, everyone learned about the situation on the island.

Besides Luffy, Zoro, and Fanny from your crew, there are nine other pirates on this island with bounties exceeding 100 million.

The twelve most powerful supernovas of the time are gathering in the Sabaody Archipelago.

With three Supernovas boasting bounties exceeding 100 million, the Straw Hat Pirates are undoubtedly targets for other pirate crews.

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock.

I never imagined that this small Sabaody Archipelago would hide so many powerful pirates.

"Do you know where that highly skilled coating craftsman, Rayleigh, is?"

Luffy, however, was able to grasp the key point, and he asked eagerly.

Xia Qi pondered for a moment.

“Rayleigh, he’s probably at the Sabaody amusement park right now.”

Upon receiving this news, Luffy and his crew immediately called Fanny.

Fanny casually agreed on the phone, eagerly anticipating their request to have a great time at the Chambord amusement park.

Van Nistelrooy, on the other hand, was quite distressed.

Kizaru left, but he now has a little tail in his arms.

As for Luffy, what was bound to happen has finally come to pass.

When they first entered the island, the bounty hunters who attacked Luffy and his crew joined forces with a kidnapping group to launch the attack.

Taking advantage of a moment when Luffy and the others weren't paying attention, they kidnapped Camie and planned to sell her.

In order to rescue Camie who had been kidnapped, Sanji sought help from the Flying Fish Knights led by Duval.

Upon hearing that Camie was in danger, Dibaru immediately led his flying fish knights to the scene without hesitation.

With the help of the Flying Fish Knights, the Straw Hat Pirates, who were originally scattered all over the island, were reunited.

Through Nico Robin and Papagu's explanation, everyone learned that there was a prejudice against fish-people on the Sabaody Archipelago.

The fish-people suffered all sorts of unfair treatment here, being bought and sold as slaves and abused at will.

They quickly found out where Kemi was, but to their surprise, she was taken directly to GR1 auction house and auctioned off as a slave.

The Straw Hat crew originally planned to rush into the auction house to rescue Cammy, but Hachi desperately dissuaded them.

"No, it's too dangerous to just rush in! There are definitely a lot of marines and thugs inside. If we rush in like this, not only will we fail to rescue Kemi, but we might also be wiped out."

Then Xiao Ba said anxiously.

Nami and the others thought that Hachi made sense, so they decided to sneak into the auction to buy Camie back.

Anyway, after so many adventures, the Straw Hat crew has no shortage of Beli now.

Nami and the others, who arrived at the auction venue first, originally planned to bid 200 million Berries for Camie to avoid any additional trouble.

Unexpectedly, because mermaids are extremely rare, Camie was immediately offered a price of 500 million Berries by the Celestial Dragon Charlos Saint as soon as she appeared.

"Kemi, we're here to save you!"

Just as everyone in the venue was getting anxious, Luffy and Zoro rushed in, instantly causing a commotion.

Without saying a word, they started causing a scene at the auction.

Just then, Hachi, who was still restraining himself, was shot by the Celestial Dragon Charlos.

Enraged, Luffy could no longer contain his fury.

"You dare to hurt my friend? I won't let you get away with it!"

Then Luffy suddenly rushed forward and threw a powerful punch at Charles Saint.

Charles Saint was sent flying by the punch, crashing heavily to the ground.

The people around were stunned by this scene, and the entire auction hall instantly descended into chaos.

At this moment, Robin, Usopp, and Brook also arrived.

The Straw Hat crew finally reunited at the auction venue, but were then surrounded by the Navy.

Adhering to the Celestial Dragons' fundamental principle of "if you can't have it, destroy it," Charlia prepared to shoot Camie.

At that moment, an old man suddenly appeared, and he stretched out a hand, easily blocking Charlia's gun.

Yes, this energetic old man is Lei Li, the coating worker Xiao Ba mentioned.

……

Chapter 78 Fanny, who was forcibly controlled by his little wife, and the strange Bartholomew Big Bear.

Kizaru stood with his hands in his pockets, a half-smile on his face, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

They left slowly like that.

In his view, there was no need for him to put in any more effort to maintain a balance.

Van Nistelrooy is now in even bigger trouble.

He was completely under the control of his own wife.

Fanny stood there, mouth agape, eyes wide, his face filled with disbelief.

He racked his brains but still couldn't figure it out.

Lillian, who doesn't seem to fit in with the Celestial Dragons, suddenly appeared on the Sabaody Archipelago.

Half a year later, Lillian still looks the same as I remember, without much change.

She's still so cute.

Her big, watery eyes blinked, making Fanny feel a little lost.

Lillian has changed so much.

The sharp-tongued brat who used to be so ruthless has, through his tireless efforts, been transformed into a gentle yet cunning young lady.

Hmm, this is probably even more troublesome.

“Fanny, I’ve come to Chambord with a mission.”

Lillian had no idea what Fanny was thinking, but she jumped into his arms with practiced ease and said in a clear voice.

Upon hearing this, Fanny raised an eyebrow, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.

"A mission? What mission?"

Lillian's expression instantly turned serious. She frowned slightly and lowered her voice.

"Miss, please watch your words."

Suddenly, a rather attractive maid named Si Nuo spoke up.

"Shut up, or I'll make you clean the men's restroom as punishment."

"Yes."

"Let's continue."

"Recently, the Sabaody Archipelago will be the site of a major upheaval, guided by the Navy and the World Government."

“My family faction is trying to take advantage of this commotion to seize control of the Sabaody Archipelago, which originally belonged to Don Quixote.”

Upon hearing this, Fanny's lips curled up slightly, revealing a doting smile.

Sure enough, there are smart people among the Celestial Dragons; otherwise, they're all just incompetent idiots who hold positions without doing any work.

He reached out and gently patted Lillian's head, speaking softly.

"Lillian, this is none of your business."
