One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

"what……!!!"

Dongli suddenly leaned back, letting out a terrible scream in excruciating pain.

"Dongli!?"

Upon seeing Dongli injured, the giants immediately issued shocked and concerned calls.

Who would have thought that a captain of one of the Straw Hat Pirates' crews would injure a giant pirate who roamed the seas a hundred years ago right from the start?

Moreover, judging from the wounds that are constantly being tormented by the dual energies of ice and fire, Dongli's injuries are very likely not ordinary.

However, Donli was still one of the strongest warriors in Elbaf in the last hundred years.

After the intense pain subsided, his warrior blood surged, forcefully pulling his body back up from its backward fall.

"Oh no!"

Donley let out a loud shout, his eyes flashing with ferocity. He threw down the sword in his hand, plunging it into the ground, and reached out to grab Drake's head.

But Drake, who dared to take such a radical step, was unlikely to let things go as he wished.

Suddenly, a sound of mechanical and electrical noises came from his neck.

The next instant, his neck snapped back with incredible speed and landed back on the Tyrannosaurus Rex's body.

Click...click...

A faint crackling sound came from Drake's neck.

Only then did everyone notice that Drake, after transforming into his dinosaur form, showed signs of scientific modification to his body.

"What's this!?"

Having missed his target, Dorry stared wide-eyed at Drake's neck, momentarily stunned, and couldn't help but ask a question.

"This is the mechanical modification technology of the Straw Hat Pirates' research team."

Drake didn't hold back at all; in fact, perhaps because of the global live broadcast, he even remarkably spoke a few more words:

"This is the research result of Quinn, the deputy minister of the research unit. It can implant a special mechanical structure into the body of a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user, enabling them to unleash powerful strength regardless of their form..."

"That kid! He definitely took a bribe from Quinn!"

On the Straw Hat crew's side, upon hearing Drake begin to speak eloquently about Quinn's mechanical modification techniques, many captains immediately pouted and gave Drake disdainful looks.

Since the Straw Hat Pirates' top executives delegated a great deal of authority some time ago, all of the Straw Hat's businesses are now in a highly autonomous phase.

Now that Drake is openly promoting Zoan-type Devil Fruit user's mechanical modification technology in front of a global live broadcast, he might have made some secret deal with Queen, planning to take this opportunity to make a quick buck!

In fact, their guess was correct.

Thanks to the discovery of willpower, Quinn is now researching a project that uses willpower to transform people who have become Zoan-type Devil Fruit users into other types of abilities.

Although the project received strong support from the research unit and the Straw Hat Pirates, it still faces a huge funding gap compared to the overall project.

So Quinn came up with a plan to spin off his one-way technology and start a company to earn some money.

His primary target, naturally, is the Zoan-type Devil Fruit users within the Straw Hat Pirates.

Perhaps because they were both users of the Ancient Zoan Dinosaur Fruit, Drake was captivated by Queen's mechanical modification technology and formed a cooperative relationship with him.

Currently, one of them is responsible for technical support, while the other is responsible for providing channels and transportation, and they have already served many Zoan-type ability users.

This technology has made a lot of money. Although Drake is engrossed in his training and rarely participates in these trivial matters, leaving them to his subordinates, he has still reaped considerable benefits from them.

Quinn always thinks of him first whenever there's a technological innovation or a material upgrade at the Tun Tun factory.

So at the moment Donald asked the question, Drake was struck by a sudden inspiration, and a flash of inspiration struck him!

With such a great opportunity, why not promote Quinn's modification techniques?

Thinking of this, the dragon energy that had been gathering within him, preparing to catch Dongli off guard, gradually subsided.

It just goes to show that people are indeed selfish.

Drake, who had originally wanted to end this farce as soon as possible, suddenly wanted to prolong the fight.

However, Donley, on the other side, was unaware of Drake's little scheme. When he heard that the other party had actually told him the details in detail, he even nodded seriously.

"I see."

In fact, he, a guy with a head full of muscles, didn't understand a word about mechanical modifications.

But perhaps the other party was giving him face because of his close relationship with the Straw Hat crew, and since they were explaining things in such detail, he naturally had to give them face, right?

"No wonder they're subordinates of those kids; they can do something like this so easily!"

"but……"

Dongli clenched his injured shoulder, and after confirming that he had not lost his ability to fight, he threw down the heavy shield that was affecting his shoulder's movement, picked up the greatsword again, and faced Drake with a two-handed sword grip.

"The warriors of Elbaf will not back down because of this little injury!"

"Sun - Slash!!!"

boom!!!

A powerful force surged from Donri's body like a storm, and thick, black Armament Haki quickly coated the greatsword.

Clearly, Donli will not hold back this time.

Drake, seeing this, even slightly raised his abyss-like mouth: "That's more like it~"

"If the enemy is too weak, I don't know how to showcase those selling points!"

As he spoke, a crack suddenly appeared on his back, and a missile launcher several meters long grew out of Drake's body.

God knows how something that big could be stored inside Drake's human body.

But at this very moment, it has indeed appeared.

After joining the Straw Hat Pirates, Queen's technological innovations were clearly not as simple as just one or two generations.

Boom! Boom! Boom! —

Missiles suddenly launched from Drake's back, accurately targeting the enemy in the air and blasting at Dorry's injured shoulder in different ways.

"what?!"

The unexpected long-range attack once again caught Dongli off guard.

He didn't have time to aim his sword at the nearest missile.

Boom—

A deafening explosion rang out, and a small mushroom cloud appeared in the low-hanging sky of the underworld.

Dongli's slash continued forward, drifting towards the distant sky, cleaving a thick cloud in two before finally dissipating into the unknown high sky.

A slash can only strike in one direction, but a missile can strike in all directions!

Boom!!!

A series of explosions followed, as the warhead struck Dongli precisely on the shoulder and exploded.

Thick black smoke enveloped Dongli's upper body.

Drake, having just launched the missile, did not pause for a moment. His Tyrannosaurus Rex claws raced across the ground, whipping a massive tail, extended to nearly a hundred meters by mechanical means, directly at Donley's ankle.

"X - Dragon Tail Slash!!!"

Chapter 503 An Easy Victory

The dragon's tail, like a long whip, slammed into Dongli's leg bone. The amplification from the dragon's tail attack caused Dongli's thick calf to bend suddenly, showing signs of a fracture.

Using the force transmitted from his tail, Drake's massive body completed a magnificent spin on the ground, once again pointing his abyss-like maw at Dorry.

"X-Flying Dragon Fang!!!"

Swoosh!

A familiar scene unfolded once again.

Drake's head shot out towards Dorry like a cannonball, creating a whooshing sound as it flew through the air.

"hateful!"

Drake's relentless attacks proved incredibly difficult for the agile Dorry.

Sensing another whistling attack, and with no vision through the smoke, he suddenly bit down.

The next moment, Dongli disregarded everything, and his powerful aura surged like a torrent towards the sword in his hand.

"Sun—Heavy Hammer!!!"

Boom! ...

The deafening sound, accompanied by violent tremors, instantly spread throughout the entire battlefield.

Dongli used his sword as a medium to plunge it deep into the earth, suddenly releasing boundless sword intent and domineering aura from the ground.

In an instant, a catastrophe-like earthquake swept across the land, causing the earth to shake and the soil to crack.

Drake, who was originally using a head attack, stepped directly into the debris due to his massive weight. His body swayed, and the head he was aiming at Dorry passed by Dorry.

"Got you!"

Seeing this, Dorry, who had been prepared and lowered his center of gravity, grinned, released his hands from the sword hilt, and grabbed directly at Drake's neck.

The thick arms, like a pair of sturdy pincers, pinned Drake's long, serpentine neck down.

"Ugh... Ahhhhhhh!!!"

Ignoring the injury on his shoulder, Dongli gathered all his strength in his arms and lifted himself up with his toes.

Under the terrifying force, Drake's body was flung up by Dorry, spinning wildly across the vast land like a gale.

Rumble rumble rumble...

Drake's massive dinosaur body and his elongated neck provided Dorry with an excellent opportunity and posture to exert his strength.

One lap, two laps, three laps...

Like a clockwork being wound up, Dorry spun faster and faster, quickly flinging Drake's body out of the shadows, and then slammed it violently towards the World Tree wall in the distance.

Boom!!!
