One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

Page 85

The crimson words instantly extinguished the anger in Sanji's heart.

He slowly turned his gaze back to Barrati.

As if by telepathy, Zeff and the chefs also turned their gazes in that direction.

However, compared to the reluctance they felt when they parted earlier, their eyes were now filled with shock.

Zeff's expression was somewhat better.

Who would have thought that such an outrageous pirate crew would emerge in the East Blue?!

Even though Luffy and Zoro were constantly being beaten up by Mihawk, and even though they only managed to cause minor damage to Mihawk's clothes from beginning to end...

But this still doesn't change the fact that Luffy and Zoro possess strength that is enough to shake the East Blue.

Another thing is that they have been on the verge of death countless times, yet they have always miraculously recovered completely.

Such methods have made Zeff realize...

"Sanji has really boarded an amazing ship!"

And so, under the gazes of both sides, the Going Merry slowly sailed away from Baratie, heading towards its next destination, Nami's hometown, Cocoyasi Village.

To be honest, after witnessing the battle between Hawkeye, Luffy, and Zoro, Nami has become increasingly dismissive of the Arlong Pirates.

In her view, the fate of this group of fishmen was already sealed.

Compared to that, she has more important things to do now!

……

On the vast, boundless sea.

Not long after the Going Merry left Baratie, Nami came alone to the vicinity of "Usopp's Factory" next to the ship's wheel.

"Usopp, can't we really increase the output power of the Weather Stick!?"

"I've already learned the 100,000 Volt move, which can release super-strong electrical energy in an instant, but the hot and cold bubbles that the Weather Stick can release are still too slow."

"This one……"

Looking at the Weather Stick in Nami's hand, which was clearly only a few days old but was already being disliked, Usopp awkwardly scratched his head.

He could actually understand Nami's feelings at that moment.

Just like he is now experimenting with an improved version of the Pakistani missile.

After witnessing that level of combat, no one would want to stay put and become the bottom of the pack.

Everyone is becoming stronger in their own way.

But as the saying goes, even a clever cook can't cook without rice.

Given the available materials and the limitations of the Weather Stick's size, this current form is the best Usopp could create.

After thinking for a moment, Usopp hesitated before saying:

"Everything else is fine. With my skills, I can manufacture even the most sophisticated devices."

"The key issue is..."

"There simply aren't any better materials available on those merchant ships!"

"If I can find a material that contains more energy, I might be able to upgrade and improve the current weather stick."

"or……"

Usopp paused abruptly.

Nami eagerly pressed on with more questions:

"Or what?"

Usopp looked up:

"Such a material is probably hard to find in the East China Sea."

"Why don't you go and ask Crimson if he has any thoughts on this?"

"After all, that world is so magical, maybe it will have a solution!"

Chapter 71 Battle Armor (Please continue reading~)

"A material containing extremely powerful energy!?"

Red, who had just finished explaining the matters related to trainers to Sanji, looked at Nami in surprise.

Upon learning that Nami wanted to upgrade and evolve the Clima-Tact, Akane couldn't help but rub his chin.

"Speaking of which, there are indeed quite a few items in the Pokémon world that fit your criteria."

"Really!?" Nami's eyes suddenly lit up as she looked at Akane expectantly.

“But…” A hint of difficulty appeared in his crimson eyes, “I don’t know if those things are actually useful.”

"And it will take quite a while to bring them into the real world."

When it comes to items containing energy, the first thing that comes to Red's mind is the various basic elemental evolution stones that can help Pokémon evolve, such as the Fire Stone, Water Stone, and Thunder Stone.

These attributes also happen to meet the requirements for using Nami's Weather Stick.

However, there are quite a few amazing items in the game world.

If only we could find a way to get Arceus's tablet into the world of One Piece...

Wouldn't that mean we could easily create weapons comparable to ancient weapons?

"I remember that the mall in Celadon City should sell evolution stones with normal attributes. I can exchange for a few and see if Usopp can make use of them."

A thought flashed through Crimson's mind, and he nodded to Nami, saying:

"After we wipe out the Arlong Pirates, I'll help you take a look."

"Don't worry, even if the items from the Pokémon world aren't good, there are plenty of resources to use in the Grand Line."

There's no need to rush.

"Really!?" Nami's eyes lit up with joy. "That's wonderful!"

She didn't know when it started, but she no longer feared the name of the Arlong Pirates. Instead, she became more concerned with things that could make her stronger.

Previously, I lacked the ability.

And now, Nami only wants to say one thing:

"The battle was exhilarating!"

"Could I have... accidentally turned Nami into a violent woman who loves to fight!?"

Watching Nami skip and hop away, Akane couldn't help but feel worried.

However, Nami's question happened to remind him.

In fact, a long time ago, Red had already set his sights on the various mysterious items in the Pokémon games.

Unfortunately, because the Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu!/Let's Go, Eevee! game removed the item-holding mechanic, he can only hope to find items in other versions of the game after completing the game world.

In the Pokémon games, some held items can provide an incredibly powerful boost to a Pokémon.

He was eager to see... whether these special items would still have such abnormal effects after arriving in the world of One Piece.

Of course, these are all things for later.

After seeing Nami off, Crimson's consciousness instantly shifted, focusing her attention on the top of the game console screen.

Open the Pokémon list.

A blond, chibi-style figure in a black suit, with a cigarette in his mouth, appeared prominently behind the Usopp icon.

This is Sanji's Pokémon form after he has just learned that Red is the trainer!

With Luffy and Zoro's endorsement, Sanji accepted Red's identity as a trainer almost without hesitation, and was thus able to appear in Red's Pokémon list.

Click to view.
