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

This has been the case since we set sail.

It's been more than three years now.

It becomes a habit.

Luffy felt strange not having that voice in his ear for a day.

However, compared to the beginning, Luffy is no longer in a sorry state; instead, he is calm and at ease.

Just treat it as a pastime.

However, in Kuzan's eyes, the captain was not idle; rather, he was constantly getting stronger.

The secret to becoming a maritime emperor in just over three years since setting sail may lie hidden in these daily practices.

Gradually, even Kuzan, who believed in lazy justice, had his enthusiasm for cultivation mobilized.

According to Kuzan, seeing Luffy is like seeing a young Vice Admiral Garp.

They truly are grandfather and grandson.

Luffy,

Vivi walked over with a strange expression. "The Straw Hat Grand Fleet has contacted us, asking if we need any assistance."

Luffy paused for a moment, then couldn't help asking, "What kind of assistance?"

Vivi said, both amused and exasperated, "Of course it's war."

The Straw Hat crew is a large fleet with several thousand members. Now that they are so openly heading towards Big Mom's Whole Cake Island, not only has the Navy received the news, but the news is also spreading like wildfire in the underworld.

So the Straw Hat Grand Fleet members all came to ask what was going on.

Based on their understanding of the Straw Hat crew, they couldn't possibly be really going there to eat cake.

If a war breaks out with the Four Emperors, then as a member of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, I must go and lend a hand.

This is a very honorable thing.

Vivi reported on their respective situations: "Cavendish said he's already on his way with the Handsome Pirates, Bartolomeo said he'll be there soon, and the Happo Navy and the Tontatta Tribe seem to be preparing to head to the World Government Summit..."

Luffy waved his hand, "By the time they arrived, it was already over."

In his mind, the war wouldn't last long.

Kuzan said from the side, "Including your Straw Hat Grand Fleet, a pirate force of nearly 10,000 is indeed formidable."

This is not the so-called 5,000-strong Creek fleet in the East China Sea back then; there is no comparison between the two.

However, Luffy doesn't care about any of that.

To him, they were all friends.

Of course, it's hard to say whether he still remembers what his friend looks like. Luffy can only rely on Robin's hints to recall based on the characteristics.

Even if someone goes through the One Piece training program and has a photographic memory, it doesn't mean they can recognize the other person.

My brain still tends to short-circuit from time to time.

In Vivi's eyes, the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, with its several thousand members, was no small number.

With nearly 10,000 people, this number is still much smaller than that of the established Four Emperors. In fact, the Straw Hat Grand Fleet was formed by accident in the first place.

It's quite unbelievable to outsiders that a maritime emperor has no subordinates.

But Luffy only cares about adventure and has nothing to do with fighting for supremacy. That's why he has gathered like-minded companions around him.

But speaking of which, no one would have thought that a group of only a few dozen officers would dare to go directly to the headquarters of the Big Mom Pirates.

I'm afraid even Big Mom will be confused and think the Straw Hat crew is here for a tea party. Just thinking about that scene makes Vivi laugh.

Numbers are meaningless to the strong.

How many truly strong people are there?

They don't need to care about others; all they need to do is cause a ruckus. It has to be said, this is the Straw Hat crew's style.

However, this battle will likely not be easy for anyone.

Because each of them has its own rivals.

......

Meanwhile, on Cake Island.

Charlotte Linlin, one of the Four Emperors, Big Mom, is sitting in her castle with a huge cake in front of her.

"Mom, Straw Hat Boy has already set off."

Charlotte Perospero stood aside and reported.

"Oh?"

Big Mom took a bite of the cake and smiled. "That kid is really coming to my tea party?"

"Yes, according to the surveillance ship's report, they are heading towards Whole Cake Island and are expected to arrive by tomorrow afternoon."

"They really don't care about the Navy at all. Well, they don't need to worry about anything. The World Government doesn't have time to deal with us right now."

Big Mom's bulky body moved, and she laughed loudly, "Minions, prepare to welcome our guests!"

The woman's children cheered.

Among them were not only the children of the elderly women, but also other officials.

Among them, Bege, one of the Supernovas of the same generation as Luffy and his crew, known as Capone, was the captain of the Flame Tank Pirates and was called Godfather by his subordinates. He joined the Big Mom Pirates in the past two years.

His eyes gleamed; upon hearing the news, his desire to stir up a major incident ignited within him.

For some reason, Becky felt that the Straw Hat Pirates, who had crushed them and their fellow Supernovas in the Sabaody Archipelago, couldn't possibly be there just for a tea party.

Pirates of the new era should all have this idea.

Overthrow the emperors of the old era!

None of the Supernovas like Bege are willing to be subordinate to anyone; their temporary joining of the Four Emperors' pirate crews is merely a way to seek opportunities.

Just like the alliance he saw in the newspaper formed by Kid, Apoo, and Hawkins among their group of supernovas, although they were defeated by Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, as soon as they formed the alliance, they all had this idea!

Becky is no exception.

His target was Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, and he was going to use his most skilled method—assassination!

Big Mom lives up to her reputation as one of the Four Emperors, but during her two years of infiltration, Becky has already found her weakness!

Turn this steel behemoth into a sieve full of holes!

Of course, if the Straw Hat crew really did come here for a tea party, then he would add some fun to the event.

......

On the Sunny.

"Luffy, Luffy!"

Bai Xing shouted from the other side of the deck, "Fish on the hook! Fish on the hook!"

She and Perona next to her hugged each other, and the two jumped up excitedly.

Fishing is undoubtedly the most common form of entertainment on the high seas, and Shirahoshi and Perona have earned a reputation for it.

Air Force King!

Neither of them had ever caught a fish.

Originally, I didn't have high expectations this time. After all, the Sunny was still moving at full speed on its way to Whole Cake Island. What stupid fish would chase after the bait?

And they actually took the bait!

Luffy walked over with great interest.

"Luffy, just you wait, I'll definitely catch this fish!"

Perona said, forcing herself to speak.

In fact, the fish was so big that she was being dragged along.

"Hehehe, it's yours, but I'll still help out."

Luffy grabbed Perona's hand from behind and pulled hard. Perona blushed and her hand suddenly lost all strength. But at this moment, she didn't need to use her strength. The big fish was pulled up!

With a bang, a large fish several meters long crashed onto the deck and immediately became unconscious.

Then everyone gathered around the fish, their faces showing reluctance.

Its body is both green and pink, making it look incredibly colorful and vibrant.

It is well known that the more vibrant the color, the stronger the toxicity.

Chopper looked at the colorful fish and said, "These fish aren't edible, are they?"

what?

Shirahoshi and Perona's smiles gradually faded. Could they not eat the fish they had caught?

Are there fish in the world that cannot be eaten?

Luffy smiled and comforted the two of them, then demonstrated how to eat sashimi by grabbing a fish and taking a bite.

"Luffy!!!"

Everyone was startled.

Luffy took a couple of bites and his eyes lit up. "Hmm, it tastes pretty good!"

Just then, Sanji came out of the kitchen and his eyes widened in shock at the sight. "Hey, that fish is highly poisonous! That's a tigerfish! You'll die if you eat it!"

Highly poisonous?!

Everyone was startled.

"Relax, relax,"

Luffy said with a grin, "Magellan's poison has no effect on me. These poisons are more like seasonings."

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"So, are we going to throw this fish away?" Bai Xing asked, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.
