"Then I'll be off now, Mr. Zoro."
"That's more like it!"
"Go!"
Zoro couldn't help but chuckle as he watched Sanji leap away from the Going Merry.
Crimson, watching from the side, couldn't help but chuckle, shaking his head and saying:
"Zoro, really, you should just let Sanji go!"
"That won't do." Zoro grinned. "He lost the bet to me!"
"I'm going to enjoy being respected by this curly-browed guy for a while now!"
The bet Zoro mentioned was naturally the duel they made at the naval base that day.
Judging from the current situation, it is obvious who the winner is.
no way.
Although Sanji possesses the Flaming Whirlwind Kick, he was ultimately slightly inferior to Zoro's 100,000-volt lightning power, losing by a narrow margin.
Zoro, having finally seized this opportunity, was naturally not going to let Sanji go.
Lately, whenever the two meet, he immediately starts mocking Sanji.
And following the outcome of the bet, Sanji could only bear the pain.
As a result, Sanji has hardly shown his face in front of Zoro these past few days.
"okay."
Red patted Zoro on the shoulder.
"Don't be too happy yet. Be careful, if Sanji wins next time, you'll be the one who suffers."
"Win it back? Him?!"
Zoro gave a dismissive laugh.
But the next second, a glint of light flashed in his eyes, and he said with extreme excitement:
"I will not give him that chance!"
……
……
Let's go back to the present.
The Straw Hat crew's high-profile arrival in Port was not intended to be kept secret from anyone.
The conspicuous pirate flag fluttering among a group of merchant ships instantly attracted the attention of the marines.
Upon recognizing the Straw Hat Pirates' insignia, the soldiers on guard instantly panicked and immediately communicated with their respective superiors, reporting the situation up the chain of command.
This led to Tashigi abandoning her confrontation with Bartolomeo and hastily retreating.
……
……
Meanwhile, on a naval warship not far from the town of Loguetown.
Peng! ! !
Smoker suddenly slammed his fist into the wall beside him, his face revealing a ferocious expression as he was enveloped in smoke.
"Cunning pirates! They managed to sneak into Loguetown while I was away!"
"Did someone leak the information!?"
A thoughtful look flashed in Smoker's eyes.
But the next second, he immediately picked up the Den Den Mushi receiver next to him.
After a series of "blur blur~" sounds, Smoker gave a vicious order:
"Notify all warships to proceed at full speed to the port of Loguetown!"
"The Straw Hat Pirates are currently in Loguetown!"
"Based on their route, they are very likely planning to go directly into the Grand Line!"
"We must stop them there! We absolutely cannot let these pirates escape from the East Blue!!!"
Don't let Smoker's seemingly naive appearance fool you; he just doesn't like things, not that he doesn't understand them!
Despite the mess the Straw Hat crew made at the 16th Division, their bounty wasn't increased by headquarters, and then there was the urgent all-sea search operation involving dozens of naval warships...
This is enough to show that the naval leadership never intended for this group to continue living from the very beginning!
And if, after mobilizing such a large amount of manpower and resources, they still manage to escape...
Then he, as the commander-in-chief of the operation, would lose face big time!
"Damn pirates!"
"I will definitely bring you to justice!!!"
Thick white smoke rose from Smoker's body, turning the entire room into a white ocean.

As it turned out, Smoker's anxiety was entirely unfounded.
Because the Straw Hat crew never took him... or rather, the East Blue Navy seriously!
They didn't even leave anyone to guard the Merry!
Because Crimson and the others knew very well...
Given their captain's mischievous style, it won't be long before the navy of Loguetown is kept busy with headaches.
……
……
"Sergeant Tashigi! We've found Straw Hat Luffy's location!"
"Where!?"
On the streets of Loguetown, Tashigi, who had just returned from the suburbs, had no time to rest and immediately led the entire Loguetown navy out to search for the Straw Hat crew's whereabouts.
Colonel Smoker has given her orders to keep the Straw Hat crew in Loguetown and not let them escape.
The naval soldier giving the report paused, then looked up hesitantly at Tashigi before slowly speaking:
"It's an execution platform!"
"According to the guys over there, the Straw Hat Boy seems to be going all over the streets asking for directions, trying to get to the execution platform!"
"The execution platform!?" Tashigi was also taken aback. "You mean the plaza where the Pirate King Roger was executed!"
"That's it! That should be it!"
The naval soldiers were equally puzzled.
"What are they doing there!?" Tashigi frowned, but quickly relaxed: "Never mind, never mind that!"
"Now that we know their destination, things will be much easier!"
"Immediately deploy troops near the execution platform and await further instructions!"
"Yes!"
The naval soldier immediately ran to relay the order.
Tashigi, however, paused in her tracks.
She hesitated for a moment, but still slowly pulled out Shiyu from her waist.
Because of the previous confrontation with Bartolomeo's barrier, Shigure's blade was now somewhat dull.
"In his current state, Shigure has no chance against a great pirate with a bounty of 5000 million..."
"There's no time to do repairs!"
Tashigi gritted her teeth and, with tears in her eyes, finally made her decision:
"Let's just go to the knife shop and buy a new knife!"
In order to have a suitable weapon in hand for the upcoming battle with the pirates, Tashigi had no choice but to make the decision to spend a lot of money.
There happened to be a weapon shop she frequented not far ahead.
Tashigi didn't think too much and started running quickly.
however……
When she pushed open the door of the weapon shop, she was met with an incredibly shocking scene!
Inside the shop filled with all sorts of weapons, a boy wearing a baseball cap was holding a sharp longsword, pointing it at the arm of a green-haired swordsman.
Just as the boy in the baseball cap was about to swing his sword, Tashigi quickly shouted:
"stop!!!"
"stop!!!"
Two voices rang out simultaneously, one after the other.
Surprisingly, it was the shop owner inside who was also making panicked cries.
However, the two people inside the store seemed not to hear them, and their shouts did not stop the baseball cap boy from swinging his knife!
The sharp blade suddenly emitted a scarlet glint in the air.
Tashigi instinctively reached out and covered her eyes.
Clang!
With a crisp, metallic clang, she slowly opened her eyes.
Tashigi then discovered that... the severed limbs and blood she had imagined did not appear.
