One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

And this is Orange Town, which has already been completely occupied by Buggy the Clown Pirates!!!

……

……

"How strange, why is there no one here at all!?"

Walking along the desolate, quiet streets of Orange Town, Luffy clutched his rumbling stomach and voiced his disgruntled dissatisfaction.

The shops on both sides exuded a dilapidated atmosphere, clearly having been abandoned for a long time.

Looking at his surroundings, Zoro frowned.

Something's not right.

"I've heard of Orange Town; it shouldn't be this desolate."

Orange Town is famous for its oranges.

In this world dominated by the ocean, oranges, which provide abundant vitamins and prevent necrosis, are an essential resource.

In addition, the oranges from Orange Town have always been of high quality, attracting many merchant ships to come and go, which has enabled the town's residents to live a rich and comfortable life.

But the current quiet state of Orange Town is completely different from what Zoro had heard.

Nami, standing to the side, shook her head and sighed as she looked at the puzzled Luffy and his companion.

"Ugh……"

"You two really don't do any research at all."

"Didn't you hear about this when you were eating in Shells Town...?"

"This town has now been taken over by pirates!"

Red added insult to injury at the opportune moment: "Luffy, it seems your wish to have a good meal is going to be dashed."

"Ah!?" Luffy immediately cried out in disappointment, his eyes instantly losing their sparkle.

However, what Crimson said next quickly rekindled the light in his eyes.

"Don't be so down, Luffy, broaden your perspective!"

Crimson chuckled and patted his shoulder.

"Think about it, even though this town has been taken over by pirates, no restaurants are open anymore."

"But since that pirate crew can do this much, it must be quite large."

“There must be quite a few chefs in their group.”

"As fellow pirates, we can absolutely force them to cook for us!"

"Most importantly, it doesn't cost any money!!!"

"Free food always tastes amazing!"

"Crimson, I'm very impressed with you now!"

Upon hearing the words "free" and "freebie," Nami couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Luffy instantly perked up: "That's right! Red, you're so smart!"

As he spoke, he immediately raised his arm high and laughed loudly, saying:

"Alright! Our next goal is to find this pirate crew and get them to cook for us!!!"

"By the way, Red, do you know where this pirate crew is?"

Luffy, who already considered Red a know-it-all, asked again.

But just then...

boom!!!!!!!!

A thunderous explosion suddenly rang out in another corner of Orange Town, instantly attracting the attention of Crimson and the others.

Something's up!?

Zoro suddenly drew his long sword, preparing to fight.

Red, however, grinned as he watched the smoke slowly dissipate in the distance, and answered Luffy's question:

"I didn't know that originally."

"But now... I understand!"

……

……

at the same time.

On top of a high-rise building in Orange Town, a group of pirates dressed like circuses were cheering and shouting:

"Bakumite!...Bakumite!..."

It's easy to guess that they're probably cheering for the terrifyingly powerful shell they just test-fired.

At this moment, in the center of the crowd, a man with a conspicuous red nose and an orange captain's hat was also laughing loudly.

"Hahahaha..."

"I finally managed to build this Pakistani bomb!!!"

"With this, thanks to my Devil Fruit powers and the Buggy Bullet, I now possess the power to conquer the Grand Line!"

"Hahahaha..."

Bucky the Clown laughed arrogantly, then swung his arm.

"My little ones! To celebrate my greatness..."

"We're having a party!!!"

"Oh~!!!" The pirates cheered loudly.

As a former member of the Roger Pirates, Buggy perfectly inherited the Roger Pirates' fine tradition: no matter what happens, it's worth having a party!

It is precisely because of this joyful atmosphere that the pirate crew is becoming more and more like a circus, which is more in line with Buggy the Clown's identity.

however……

Just as the pirates continued to cheer and prepare for the banquet, a strange sound came from the sky, seemingly sucking in saliva:

"A banquet!? I heard the sounds of a banquet!!!"

Chapter 25 Bucky, I'm here to discuss cooperation! (Please read on!)

What was that sound?!

A pirate who was carrying drinks immediately stopped and then subconsciously looked up at the sky.

He then saw...

In the sky, already dyed red by the setting sun, a strange figure suddenly descended from the sky, crashing towards their location.

!!!

The pirate's face instantly turned to fear, and cold sweat poured down his back.

But by the time he discovered all this, it was too late!

bump!!!

A thick cloud of dust suddenly rose from the Clown Pirates' base.

"Um!?"

All the pirates, including Buggy the Clown, were instantly drawn to the strange noise and turned around.

As a gentle breeze blew by, the dust and mist quickly dissipated, revealing four distinct figures.

Three men and one woman.

One person is standing normally, with a silly grin on their face;

He fell to the ground in a face-first-feet-shit position;

The other one, while not exactly dashing in his pose either, actually looked rather handsome with the girl he was holding in his arms.

"Phew~ I finally succeeded! Thanks to the machine for the reward!"

For the first time, despite Luffy's capriciousness, he landed normally and even managed to protect Nami, which made Akane involuntarily show a relieved and joyful smile.

"Crimson! You bastard who values ​​women over friends!!!"

On the other side, Zoro, with obvious bruises on his face, got up in a disheveled state and immediately roared at Akame.

Upon seeing this, Red quickly put Nami down and reached out to intercept the saliva that Zoro was spitting out.

He gave an awkward smile:

"Don't blame me! I warned you all beforehand, you just didn't notice!"

"Damn it! Who knew your reminder would be this?!"

"Speaking of this..."

Zoro was furious and was about to turn around and teach Luffy a lesson for his recklessness.

But Luffy, who had just discovered the food, had already disappeared. He ran to a pirate holding a plate of food and began to eat it heartily.

"Damn it! Let me finish what I have to say!!!"

Zoro's forehead veins bulged, experiencing Luffy's reckless nature for the first time.

Who would suddenly say, "I smell meat," and then, without saying another word, bind them all together and send them flying into the air for a freefall?!

"Alright, alright, calm down, Zoro."

"No, no, it's not that bad."

Chi Hong, like the little horse behind Teacher Luo, kept trying to persuade him.

"Hey! I'm talking to you guys..."
