The Great Voyage Begins with the Celestial Dragons

......

A few days later, in the East China Sea.

"Grandpa, it's rare for you to call me."

As the revolutionary army liberated the front lines, Dragon gazed at the Kingdom Guard, who were being easily wiped out in the distance, and calmly answered Garp on the other end of the phone.

"What you did has caught the attention of the Navy and the World Government."

On the other end of the phone, Garp's voice was still as carefree as ever, as if they were discussing nothing important.

"I'm a little surprised you noticed this so late," Dragon chuckled. "Shouldn't you be the one coming to me directly for this? Why are you telling me, old man?"

"Heh, that old guy from the Warring States period just finished communicating with me, telling me to give you two choices: either resist stubbornly to the end, or give up the revolution and focus on developing the Tenwa Trading Company," Garp said casually.

"Grandpa, based on my understanding of Marshal Sengoku, he should only give me the latter option, not the option of putting up a last-ditch resistance," Dorrag chuckled.

He pointed this out on purpose, but he knew very well that putting up a stubborn resistance was exactly what Garp wanted him to do.

He just didn't expect that his stubborn father would now start to agree with his ideas.

"Oh, then I must have misheard. Anyway, just make any choice, and I'll let them know later," Garp said nonchalantly.

"If I were to put up a stubborn resistance, it would damage the old man's image in the Navy," Dragon said calmly.

Whether Garp's image is damaged or not will not affect his ability to continue.

They said that simply to help Garp strengthen his resolve.

He now realizes that Karp is also a revolutionary figure who can be won over.

Even if a child has mature ideas, who wouldn't want their family to support their career?

"What does it matter? The Navy doesn't have much of a positive image these days. I've seen through it all; they're all just guys who do evil under the guise of justice. Ha, they're not even as clean as some pirates."

"Besides, that brat Luther has already become one of the Five Elders. Who knows what the future holds for the Navy?"

Garp sighed on the other end of the phone, causing Dragon to fall silent.

Dragon knew very well how deep Garp's feelings were for the Navy, but because of Tiger and a series of other events, Garp's attitude towards the Navy as a whole had changed considerably.

In addition, the conflict between Garp and Luther led to Garp becoming almost an outsider in the Navy.

"That person is now one of the Five Elders..."

Dragone had complex feelings toward Luther.

He had studied the other person's behavior and understood that the other person could see the problems in the world and even had corresponding solutions.

However, instead of choosing to redeem humanity, Luther chose to collude with those who had already benefited, making himself the new ruler.

It can only be said that he had extremely strong abilities, but he did not use them for the right purpose. This is how Dragone evaluated Luther.

On the other side, Garp continued talking to himself:

"No matter what, just stick to your principles. By the way, Luffy hasn't been corrupted by you, you bastard, has he?"

"I'd love to have that kid join the revolutionary army, but unfortunately..."

When Luffy was mentioned, a smile appeared on Dragon's face.

But even he felt a headache thinking about Shanks' influence on Luffy.

"Hahaha, who would want to join the Revolutionary Army with you? In two years, I'll bring Luffy aboard and we'll take him everywhere to fight evil. He doesn't necessarily have to be a Marine, but he definitely has to be a righteous person."

Karp spoke loudly about the future he was planning for his grandson, his voice filled with anticipation.

On the other end of the phone, Dorrag gave a strange smile.

If Luffy really did what Garp said, that would be great. When Garp and Luffy meet again and Luffy finds out Luffy is a pirate, his expression will definitely be interesting...

Dragon himself doesn't have any prejudice against pirates, otherwise he wouldn't have let Sabo become a pirate.

In a sense, he also thought it would be a good thing for Sabo to join the Whitebeard Pirates.

Now the Revolutionary Army is destined to be controlled by the World Government, and both Shanks and Whitebeard might become allies of the Revolutionary Army.

As for his troublesome son, all he can do is hope that the boy can find his own way.

Dragon hung up the phone, his gaze slowly shifting towards the direction of the Kingdom of Goa:

"Speaking of which... there aren't many days left until the day Luffy said he would set sail..."

Chapter 331 The Preparations for the Departure of the Three Major Cadres

Frost Moon Village.

Clang!

Zoro slowly sheathed his sword.

Behind him, the wooden figure made of ironwood was cut in two and slowly slid to the ground, just as Ace had demonstrated years ago.

"Clap clap clap!"

Beside him, Koushirou smiled and clapped, looking at Zoro with approval and satisfaction.

He didn't expect that after Kuina and Ace arrived, Zoro was not only not discouraged by Kuina, but actually grew even faster.

He had already reached the level of a swordsman before setting sail, so his future potential is limitless.

"Zoro, you can set sail now."

"I've been waiting to hear those words for a long time!"

Zoro grinned, hanging the two famous swords, Onimaru Kunitsuna and Shusui, at his waist. His gaze was fixed on the distance, his face filled with endless anticipation.

To repay Ace for his guidance and for giving him the knife, he volunteered to help him complete a plan.

He will become stronger on this journey and will eventually catch up with Kuina.

......

Xiluobu Village.

"Pirates are coming! Pirates are coming!"

Usopp's loud, joyful voice echoed throughout the village, drawing angry glares from many villagers.

"Usopp, can't you come up with something new?"

Faced with the villagers' questions, Usopp chuckled:

"Hehe, who makes Kaya happy to hear this news? Who do you guys think you are!"

Usopp made faces at the villagers, humming a slogan, and charged toward the only mansion in the village.

"Hey, Usopp, are you here to see Kaya?"

When Merry, the mansion's butler, saw Usopp, he couldn't help but smile and wave at him.

"Haha, it's Merry. I need to find Kaya. I'm going upstairs now."

As he spoke, Usopp bypassed Merry and rushed straight into Kaya's boudoir.

Although he received training from Stella from a young age, he spent most of his time in Sirob Village.

He always remembered the hellish training he underwent under Stella, and how every day when he was covered in bruises, Kaya would drag him back to her home and treat and bandage him.

From that moment on, he vowed to protect the girl in front of him.

Unfortunately... a few years ago, Kaya's family suffered a major tragedy, and he only learned about it after it happened. Although he avenged Kaya, the other party's parents could never come back.

"Kaya, I'm here!"

Usopp entered the room and saw Kaya lying on the hospital bed trying to get up, so he quickly pressed her back down.

"The doctor said you need to rest and recuperate, and you're not allowed to get up."

Kaya looks 16 or 7 years old, with blonde hair, brown eyes, and fair skin. She has a delicate beauty when lying in bed.

"Usopp, I'm alright!"

Kaya, lying on her sickbed, looked at Usopp and a bright smile spread across her face:

"The doctor you hired is exceptionally good. I've almost fully recovered and am even able to go out to sea with you."

"No! Going to sea was my own decision, and I don't want you to suffer at sea."

Seeing that Kaya looked determined to say something, Usopp grabbed her hand and said:

"Don't worry, I absolutely, positively will not leave you alone in Sirob Village. After I go to sea, I will have someone bring you to the Kingdom of Gaya. My mother is there; there are the best doctors and equipment. I know you've always wanted to be a doctor. Don't worry, I won't be gone for long, and if you miss me, just contact me. I'll be back anytime!"

Compared to that bastard who hasn't come back to see him even once, he values ​​the people around him more than anything else.

Going to sea was to fulfill a family mission, something he owed his family and needed to repay in his lifetime.

He certainly wouldn't watch Kaya suffer with him; sending her to the Kingdom of Gaya would be the best option.

Once he completes this task, he can spend more time with Kaya.

"Alright then, while you're out at sea growing up, I won't fall behind. I'll become a qualified doctor."

Kaya smiled brightly as she spoke about her vision for the future.

However, looking at the other person's expression, Usopp felt somewhat guilty.

He knew that Kaya wanted to stay by his side, but she only said that because of his choice.

Sigh...just like his mother, they're all a bunch of fools...

"Don't worry, we'll both work hard to grow, and I'll give you a bright future."

Usopp looked at the obedient Kaya in front of him with deep affection in his eyes, and couldn't help but lean his head against her.

While Usopp and Kaya were enjoying their time together, not far from the mansion, Stella leaned against a tree, a smile occasionally appearing on her lips.

"Your Highness, my mission is finally complete. I wonder if you've missed me all these years?"

Stella stretched lazily, her eyes filled with a kind of reverie.

She had only seen Luther a handful of times over the years, and because of this, his place in her heart became even more secure and irreplaceable.

She knew very well that Luther was like a blazing sun, attracting and drawing countless people to him.

Since she had the opportunity to get closer to him, why would she want to miss it?
