One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

At this moment, Crimson spoke again, attracting the attention of the curious Supernova pirates.

With a smirk, he continued, "As you can see, these people are some of the poor souls you rescued three days ago."

"I'm sure you're wondering why I suddenly had them here..."

"Because this is your next task!"

Swish!

Crimson suddenly stretched out his palm, pointed at the freed slaves, and said to a group of Supernova pirates:

"It's about escorting these people home!!!"

???

Upon hearing Red's words, a look of confusion instantly appeared on the faces of the Supernova Pirates.

Luo stepped forward directly and asked, puzzled:

"Those in red, although we know the principle of helping someone to the end and seeing them through to the end..."

"But isn't it a bit too risky to set sail at this time?"

"After all, as you said, this is the time when the world is paying the most attention to this matter, and even if these rescued people don't betray us, their relatives and friends might..."

"Oh? So you're saying you won't do anything dangerous?!"

Before Luo could finish speaking, a powerful pressure suddenly appeared above everyone's heads like a mountain, hovering only a hair's breadth away from them.

The threat is self-evident!

The elegant first mate, who had been all smiles and sharing the spoils with everyone just a moment ago, now looked like a king from the dark world, surveying everything with a disdainful air.

"I remember... not long ago, you were all a bunch of lawless and unruly pirates, right!?"

"how?"

"Is invading the Celestial Dragons' sacred land your dream since you set sail?"

"Now that you've achieved your goals, have you started planning your retirement?!"

Under the crimson, imposing gaze, the pirates instantly choked up, not daring to utter a single sound.

"I've got it!"

The crimson voice came again.

This time, it appeared directly in their hearts, in their minds, and in their souls!

"You are a band of pirates! A band of pirates who entrust their lives to the sea, pursuing freedom and adventure!"

"If you think you've accomplished your mission and can retire peacefully just because of one attack on the Celestial Dragons' holy land..."

"I will also follow your wishes!"

"But those of you are no longer worthy to be our companions!"

"Don't worry, even if you want to quit now, I won't do anything to you. You can even take the Devil Fruits and Berries I gave you before."

"I just... simply don't want to see unmotivated people around me!"

shuh...

The moment the words left his mouth, Crimson immediately dissipated the mental pressure he had released, and then indifferently surveyed the crowd.

His words, like the morning bell and evening drum, echoed in the air, striking heavily at everyone before him.

"Alright, make your choice now!"

The crimson figure, now calm, fell silent and waited quietly.

"........."

"........."

In an instant, the pirates' gazes began to wander among themselves, and a tense yet expectant atmosphere filled the air.

However, at that moment...

"Are you kidding me!"

A slightly hoarse female voice suddenly emerged from the crowd.

Ignoring his companions' attempts to stop him, Bonnie strode forward and stood right in front of Crimson.

"You promised to take me to find Big Bear!"

"Don't think I'll let you off easily until you keep your promise!"

With an imposing air, Bonnie suddenly stretched out his hand, as if to grab the crimson collar and threaten him.

However, her hand suddenly stopped in mid-air when it was halfway out.

Her bright, spirited eyes flickered slightly, but in the end, she didn't dare to be too disrespectful to Crimson. Instead, she gave a soft snort:

"It's just taking a group of people home!?"

“I know that it’s not suitable for you to move around freely for the time being…”

"But when I return, you must lead me to the Big Bear!!!"

"No problem~"

Despite being yelled at by Bonnie, Crimson actually smiled sincerely at the hot-tempered child in front of him.

"Don't worry, according to the intelligence that Robin and the others gathered in Pangu City, the original plan to modify the bear seems to have been forcibly stopped due to some accident."

"After what happened before, Satan Saint probably won't have time to deal with Big Bear for a while."

“…………” Upon hearing Scarlet’s words, Bonnie’s eyes instantly welled up with tears.

She gently clenched her fist, then slowly lowered it, before turning to look directly at Crimson and asking:

"So, shall we go and recoat the ship now?! There should be shipwrights on Fishman Island who can do coating, right?"

"Don't rush me~"

Seeing that Bonnie was about to take action immediately, Crimson instead reached out and stopped him.

He smiled slightly, but turned his gaze to the other supernovas.

"At least... we should wait until everyone has made a decision before assigning tasks!"

"........."

The pirates' eyes flickered a few more times after being swept by the crimson gaze.

Immediately afterward, Law, who also needed the Straw Hat crew's help, stepped forward.

"Really, Bonnie beat us to it!"

He sighed softly, as if regretting something, and stood before the crimson figure.

"Compared to the others, I am actually the least afraid, after all, our ship is a submarine that can sail underwater."

Luo smiled lightly, yielding to Crimson's will in a tactful way.

With Law and Bonney taking the lead, the other Supernovas quickly realized what was going on and stepped forward one after another.

"Fate has taught me... if I back down now, the chances of regretting it are one hundred percent!"

"Hey, Crimson Lord, you really underestimate me, Apoo! Do you think I'm the kind of person who takes money and doesn't do the job?!"

"Hmph, I think you're just unhappy because you didn't get enough, right?"

"Heh heh, aren't you one too, Urki?"

"And that bastard Capone actually took advantage of his Devil Fruit power and went straight to the priority lane."

"Judging from the short guy's position, he might be the first among us to make a decision."

"........."

"........."

The captains of the Supernovas instantly appeared before Crimson, responding to his expectant gaze with fervent eyes.

Even Drake, who had a naval background, hesitated for a long time before finally stepping forward and walking towards Crimson.

He knew very well what taking this step meant for him.

But recalling what he had seen in Mary Geoise three nights ago…

The sense of justice in his heart was like a saw, constantly tormenting Drake's mind and body!

If the light he sought was not true light at all...

Why doesn't he immerse himself completely in darkness, and within that darkness, seek a place where light can shine?

Ultimately, Drake made this decision, which went against his hidden identity!

……

……

"Boss Luffy, Boss Red..."

"Please allow us... to join the Straw Hat Pirates!!!"

On an open space.

Under the arrangement of Ap and others, what was originally just a speech to express determination suddenly turned into an initiation ceremony in which the underlings paid homage to their elder brother.

Luo and Bonnie took the glasses from Ap and watched in bewilderment as Hawkins used his straw arms to steadily pour the "Adopted Son's Sake" into their own glasses.

No, what's going on?!

Luo and Bonnie stared blankly at Apoo and the others, who had suddenly turned into their own Straw Hat crew.

Why was everything fine just a moment ago, and then suddenly the style changed like this?!

The two were completely baffled.

At this moment, not only Law and Bonney, but even Luffy and Red, who were inexplicably honored with the highest seats, were somewhat confused.

In fact, Crimson does indeed intend to recruit the Supernovas.

Regardless of their pirate crew, their own potential is certainly worth investing in.
