One Piece: The Will of Conqueror is the strongest!

"巳－未－申－亥－午－寅!"

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

Brando didn't stand for it and followed suit, exhaling a fireball at a temperature of over a thousand degrees.

The two sides were only about twenty meters apart.

When the king of the near seas saw the red light, it was too late to escape. It was directly hit by the three-meter-diameter fireball, which instantly ignited the thick layer of fat on its body.

The searing pain made it writhe wildly before it plunged headfirst into the sea and disappeared.

"Thank goodness, the Fireball really doesn't kill people!"

"Even sea kings in this world are so thick-skinned!"

Brando was speechless.

Although I know that Fire Release is weak and that few people in Naruto have been burned to death, I still find it hard to accept after personally verifying it.

Is it because we're missing a cage?

In the duel arena, the cage being set on fire can be extremely painful.

However, Brando felt that once he mastered the nature transformation of fire attribute and enhanced the temperature and explosiveness of his fire jutsu, he should be able to defeat this king of the near seas.

Shanks, your hand!

Luffy's attention was completely drawn to Shanks, and he grabbed Shanks' clothes and couldn't help but sob.

He never imagined that what he did today would cause such serious consequences.

He now felt regretful when he thought back to what he had said to Shanks yesterday.

"It's okay, we still have one hand, hahaha!"

Shanks, with his only remaining right hand, hugged Luffy tightly and said with a smile.

At the same time, he was puzzled by Brando's abilities.

Is this guy's ability to unleash flames a Devil Fruit power? But the fact that he can stand on the seawater is truly incomprehensible to me. What kind of Devil Fruit could enable him to do that?

If it's simply about releasing flames, then many people can do it without a Devil Fruit; they can do it by simply rubbing things together quickly and repeatedly.

But is this guy really a ninja?

"Approval from the will of the overlord!"

"Speak out bravely against the wicked bandits, while simultaneously offering gentle physical explanations!"

"You have acquired the Iron Country Mifune Sword Technique: Iai - Flash!"

"You have obtained an unclaimed Spirit Scroll by preaching to and warming the heart of a vicious, murderous creature!"

Meanwhile, Brando once again gained the approval of the Will of the Overlord and received a reward.

Brando immediately felt an itch in his head, as if something had entered.

At the same time, he also memorized a spell that could summon a spirit scroll. As long as he left his name on the scroll, and then found the spirit that needed to be contracted and signed the contract with it, he could summon the spirit from a distance.

The duration of the opponent's existence is determined by the amount of chakra consumed.

"Alright, let's talk about it after we get ashore."

"The village chief and Makino are both very worried about you, Luffy."

The villagers also have a warm side; perhaps this time, the village chief was moved by his own actions.

A village chief who does everything he can to protect his villagers deserves my approval!

Shanks tossed Luffy directly to Brando. After confirming that this guy had no connection with the Holy Land, he wasn't so wary anymore, especially since Brando had even come to Luffy's rescue earlier that day.

Given his magnanimity, he naturally wouldn't lay a hand on Brando again.

Brando grabbed Luffy by the collar and jogged back to shore across the sea.

The village chief and Makino, who were standing nearby, finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Luffy. Makino couldn't hold back her tears and burst into tears.

After all, she practically raised Luffy herself, so how could she not care?

"Hmph, you did very well this time!"

"Let's just forget about the insults you gave me before!"

Village Chief Slap said with a touch of arrogance.

Although I was almost driven crazy by Brando's insults before, I'm now certain that Brando just has a foul mouth, but he's still a good person, just like before, and that's enough.

I just don't understand why Brando's strength has become so great. Is it because he received the blessing of the sea god?

The sea god's surname seems to be something like "sugar"...

"Village chief, your hat is really ugly, it looks like poop."

"I'll make you a cool straw hat in a few days, it'll look much better than this."

Brando chuckled and replied.

He plans to inherit this village in the future, so before he becomes the village chief, he'll let Slap, the first generation, help him manage this windmill village.

"you!"

Slavoj is red-hot.

This hat is really nice!

Chapter 7 Who still wants to be king!

After resting for two days, the Red-Haired Pirates prepared to leave.

Quite a few people from the village went to see them off. It wasn't that the Red-Haired Pirates were particularly kind, but rather that they were wealthy, having spent a lot of money in Windmill Village, and they didn't bother the village.

How could such a generous guest not be respected!

"This straw hat provides much better sun protection than the previous hat, and it's quite noticeable."

"But why did they specifically write the character for 'fire' instead of 'wind'? Our village is clearly called Windmill Village!"

Village Chief Slap was somewhat puzzled by the new straw hat he was wearing.

However, it does provide better sun protection than the previous fisherman's hat, but it's a bit conspicuous. Now, when villagers see him on the street, they stop what they're doing and stare at him.

But... this feeling doesn't seem so bad.

"After you go to sea this time, will you never come back to the village?"

Luffy looked at Shanks with great reluctance from the horse's head.

"That's right, we've been here a long time, and it's time to say goodbye. You must be very sad!"

Shanks remained nonchalant, showing no signs of the pain of separation.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Red-Haired Pirates were loading the supplies they had purchased from Windmill Village onto their ship.

"A little, but I won't force you to take me to sea. I'll become a pirate on my own, find a group of crew members stronger than you, and find the world's greatest treasure!"

"And then become the Pirate King!!"

Luffy once again declared his intention to become king.

His innocent tone was filled with fearless courage!

"Who is it? Who wants to be king again!"

Brando then shouted out.

Luffy's confident expression froze instantly, and he immediately lowered his head, afraid that Brando would discover him.

He admitted that he was a little afraid of Brando.

"Ha ha!"

"That's not enough courage."

"Hey, I'll keep this hat with you for now. It's a very precious hat of mine. You can return it to me when you become a great pirate."

Shanks took off the straw hat Roger had given him and placed it on Luffy's head.

Under the hat, Luffy was already in tears.

Brando, oblivious to the situation, didn't try to cause trouble.

"That kid is bound to make something of himself."

Beckman, with a cigar in his mouth and his arms crossed, said.

"Because he looks exactly like me when I was a child."

Shanks said with a smile.

"Does that guy really not need to be dealt with?"

Beckman took a deep drag of his cigarette and exhaled before asking.

"Perhaps he just happened to eat some special Devil Fruit. He might become Luffy's crewmate in the future. This guy probably doesn't mean any harm, so we don't need to deal with him."

Shanks waved his hand.
