Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

“Little ones,”

Luffy didn't turn around, his voice calm yet resonating throughout the entire ship, "I have so much I've wanted to say to you all, about these past two years, about the future, about dreams."

He paused, then grinned.

"In any case, thank you for supporting my impulsive choices over the past two years."

"so,"

Luffy looked at the deserted shore, his smile fading. "I won't let anyone stop us from setting sail."

Even a general wouldn't do!

He took a step forward.

boom!

An even more powerful Conqueror's Haki erupted from it.

A black and red torrent formed from lightning surged straight toward the desolate wilderness!

"Has Straw Hat Luffy's Conqueror's Haki reached this level?!" Aramaki was shocked and activated his ability with all his might.

Countless giant trees grew from his body, layer upon layer, forming a wooden barrier hundreds of meters thick.

At the same time, he covered his entire body with Armament Haki, preparing to take the hit head-on.

But Conqueror's Haki is not just about physical attacks!

The black and red torrent crashed into the wooden barrier, shattering it instantly, followed by a penetrating mental attack that struck Huang Mu.

"Well!"

Huang Mu groaned, feeling a wave of dizziness and his vision going black.

His forest giant form began to falter, cracks appeared in his trunk, and his branches and leaves withered.

Even more terrifying, a sense of fear arose deep within him.

Fear of that man!

"Oh, this endless stream of Conqueror's Haki is even more spectacular than before," Zoro said, laughing as he watched the scene unfold.

"This is the aura of a sea emperor." Sanji exhaled a puff of smoke, his eyes filled with pride.

The others also watched this scene. Two years of training had allowed them to stand firm against this domineering aura.

Two years ago, when faced with an admiral, they could only run away and watch helplessly as Luffy fought alone.

But now, they have grown stronger and are qualified to stand behind Luffy and face any enemy with him.

"Hey, hurry up and make your move!"

Huang Mu couldn't hold back any longer and shouted at the person next to him.

He's now terrified that the straw hat won't go to sea and will instead turn back and punch him. That man is definitely capable of doing that!

"I believe that what the navy should do now is to restore order to the Sabaody Archipelago."

A calm voice came from the side.

Da, da, da.

That was the sound of a bamboo cane tapping the ground.

A tall figure slowly walked over.

He wore a light purple kimono, had short black hair, a mustache, and an X-shaped scar on the left side of his forehead that extended to his eyes.

And those eyes were closed.

Admiral Fujitora Ikshō of the Navy Headquarters!

"That guy didn't do anything dangerous,"

Fujitora looked in the direction of the Thousand Sunny. Although his eyes were closed, he seemed to be able to sense everything. "He's just reuniting with his comrades and preparing to set sail."

"Stop babbling here! Help me!" Huang Mu roared.

Fujitora was silent for two seconds, then sighed.

"Since you've made that request,"

He slowly drew the cane knife from his waist.

In that instant, the sky changed color.

The crew of the Thousand Sunny looked up and saw an astonishing scene.

A massive meteorite, tearing through the atmosphere and engulfed in flames, was hurtling towards them!

"Is that the ability of an admiral?!"

"Hey, hey, hey, this is a bit of a joke!"

"A meteorite?! Really?!"

Everyone was shocked.

Although we know the general is very strong, summoning meteors at will is just too exaggerated!

Luffy grinned and slowly drew the black sword, Demonic Aura, from his waist.

"Everyone,"

He didn't turn around, and said calmly, "Let's continue sailing."

A simple sentence, yet it instantly put everyone at ease.

Yes, their captain is here.

What's a mere meteorite?

The group exchanged smiles and continued with their respective tasks.

Luffy stood at the bow of the ship, looking up at the approaching meteorite.

The black blade trembled with demonic intent in his hand, emitting an excited hum.

Armament Haki coiled around the blade, and black and red lightning danced across its surface.

At the same time, the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit began to gather, and visible cracks appeared in the air around the blade.

"Overlord Blade Style,"

Luffy bent his knees slightly, then stomped his feet hard on the ground, and his whole body shot into the sky like a rocket!

"Sky-Shaking Slash!"

The black blade was swung out, its light spreading out like a crescent moon.

It started as a thin line, then quickly expanded into a slash that stretched across the sky.

Wherever the slash passed, the space trembled, producing a sound like shattering glass.

Upon impact, a thin crack appeared in the middle of the meteorite, which then rapidly spread like a spider web across the entire meteorite.

The next second, the huge meteorite turned into countless fist-sized fragments, which fell into the sea like raindrops.

Thump, thump...

Pebbles fell into the sea, splashing up countless water droplets.

Not a single piece landed on the Thousand Sunny, or even within a hundred meters.

Luffy landed back on the deck, sheathed his sword, and his smile under his straw hat was unrestrained and blazing.

"Sail!"

"Oh!"

The Wanli Yangguang (Ten Thousand Sunshine) ship raises its sails, its coating shimmering with iridescent colors in the sunlight, and sails into the depths of the sea.

......

On the coast, the forest giant's form completely collapsed. He reverted to human form, knelt on one knee, panting heavily, his back soaked with cold sweat.

Finally, it's over.

Fujitora sheathed his sword, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"That guy was just as rumored."

He looked in the direction where the Thousand Sunny had disappeared and muttered to himself:

"I really want to see him."

......

"They left in the blink of an eye."

Shakky found Rayleigh sitting on the shore. "Little Monkey and his friends have become much more reliable."

Rayleigh watched everything that just happened without intervening.

After two years of training, Luffy, the Emperor of the Sea, has grown to such a level that he no longer needs much attention.

"Did you see that too?" Rayleigh turned around and smiled.

"Yeah, I'm a fan of theirs."

Xia Qi glanced at the coastline not far away and laughed, "And it seems I'm not the only fan."

There are many local residents of the Sabaody Archipelago there, and they went to great lengths to meet the Straw Hat crew.

"Did you remember something?" Xia Qi asked.

"Hmm? No... sort of." Rayleigh closed his eyes.

The image of that man appeared in my mind.

The man wearing a straw hat said that one sentence as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Our meeting was fate. How about we turn the world upside down together?!"

"Although your ship is small, it is operated by a different person, so it may be able to withstand the attack of strong winds and waves."

"What a perfect ship for our voyage!"
