Pirate: I am King Luffy

He couldn't help thinking.

That thing, just by moving its body randomly, can make the Bharati sink, right?

After cooking for several hours in a row, Sanji was exhausted. Moo then patted his belly and sank to the bottom of the sea contentedly.

"Are you finally satisfied? You bastard monster..."

Sanji's hands were shaking slightly and he couldn't even hold the cigarette. This was his first time cooking with such high intensity.

"We need to make that guy pay us five million Baileys!"

Barati is a relatively high-end restaurant. An average person would spend 10,000 Baileys for a meal if they ordered a few dishes. They would not give change and the extra money would be directly regarded as a tip.

"I have fed your partner. Here is the bill. Take it!"

Sanji took the long bill and slammed it on Luffy's desk.

"Oh, this is incredible. Did you actually feed that monster? I'm almost done eating." Luffy took a look at the bill and handed it to Nami.

Sanji changed his attitude again, "Princess, is your food ok?"

"Our food didn't disappoint you, did it?"

"Well, it's very delicious food, but it lacks a little special feeling." Bellmère said holding the toothpick.

"What?" Sanji looked at Bell-mère in surprise.

This is the first time I heard someone say that Bharati’s cuisine lacks that special touch.

"Yes, after getting used to eating Belle-Mère and Nokigo's food, it feels like something is missing when eating something else."

Uta agreed with this.

"Ah!!!" Sanji was hit hard.

"Please tell me, is there anything wrong with our food?" Sanji put away his frivolous attitude and asked Bell-mère seriously.

"Ah, your cuisine is only delicious, but the most advanced cuisine can go a step further in making people feel delicious, which means helping the human body become stronger. Well... I can't reveal the details, this is the secret cuisine of the navy." Bellmère said, shaking the red wine glass.

"Is there such a thing?" Sanji said seriously.

"Navy cuisine that makes people stronger, I'll remember it!"

He was serious for only a second, then he noticed out of the corner of his eye that two new women had entered the restaurant. They were sisters.

He ran over in surprise and called out flatteringly: "Ms. Roxanne, welcome to Barati!"

After paying for the meal, Nami asked about the location of Barati and found the direction to Rogue Town.

Moo Moo also pulled the mechanical boat contentedly and started sailing.

Luffy sat on the bow, facing the wind and waves, looking at the sea view with a telescope. Uta was writing songs in the room, and Nami was sitting on the deck, reading a book on sailing.

"There are so few records about the Grand Line," she complained.

"I don't know anything about it. There are only a few rumors."

Luffy suddenly perked up, "Nami!"

"Ah, what's going on?" Nami looked up.

"I saw a huge bird, ten...fifty meters tall? It was holding a knife and a fork, and was equally huge!!!" Luffy couldn't wait to share his exaggerated feelings.

"Really?" Nami came over and took Luffy's telescope to look over.

On the strange island, there was a huge white bird, lazily holding a table knife with its wings.

It’s not clear whether it’s a bird or a crane, but it must be a monster.

A monster of gigantic size.

Everything on the island was huge, including two-meter-high apples. Luffy felt like he could lie on them and eat them.

"It's true." Nami was also surprised, "This must be an ancient island."

"I really want to take a bite of such a huge apple." Luffy said.

"We have to go to Rogue Town first. Luffy also wants to see Grandpa soon, right?"

Nami felt that such an island was dangerous and told Luffy.

I heard that there were creatures like dinosaurs on ancient islands.

"What a shame. Next time I'm going to take a bite of meat like that and lie on it and chew it."

……

A few more days passed.

The ship arrived smoothly at the town of Rogue, known as the town of beginning and end.

"This is near the entrance to the Grand Line. It's the only way to enter the Grand Line from the East China Sea." Nami said, looking at the nautical chart.

"Luffy-sama, we have been waiting for a long time!"

The naval soldiers who came to greet him saluted Lu Fei.

"The permit to go to the Red Earth Continent is ready. You can go to the Red Earth Continent at any time."

"No hurry, I want to take a look around here first. This is my navigator, Nami. We don't know much about that route, it would be best if you could explain it to us."

Luffy grabbed Nami's shoulders and pulled her over to him.

Loge Town, check-in successful.

Luffy held the camera Den Den Mushi in one hand and took pictures of the iron frame not far away.

"Yes, no problem!" The soldiers looked at the little girl, and although they were a little confused about her abilities, they still nodded.

He is probably a navigator in training.

"Please give me your advice." Nami smiled.

"By the way, aren't there too many pirates on this island? What are you doing?"

Bellmaire asked.

Pirates could be seen everywhere on this island, and when they saw the marines, the marines in uniform, they just calmly passed by, which made Bell-mère very confused and uncomfortable.

It was as if they were not navy, but ordinary passers-by, civilians.

It is against common sense for thieves not to run away when they see the army.

"I'm very sorry, our base... doesn't have enough strength to wipe out the pirates. We can only monitor the pirates' movements here and just make records and reports." The soldier replied.

"And this island is also a prosperous and powerful island that relies on the economy brought by pirates..."

"Is it because of this reason that we simply ignore the pirates?" Bell-mère said.

"What about my grandpa? He should come back often." Luffy asked.

"Lieutenant General Karp's route is not here. He occasionally passes through the doldrums and occasionally goes directly over the red earth continent. He takes the shortest route home. This place is a little too far for him." said the soldier.

"Oh, so that's it."

"In short, the pirates will not destroy this island. They need this island to serve as a transit and supply station, so a balance is reached..."

"I heard that there is only one way to enter the Grand Line, and that is through the Upside-Down Mountain?" Nami asked.

"It's like this for others. Pirates, civilians, and caravans can only go to other areas through the Upside-Down Mountain. For people like us in the Navy and the World Government, we can go directly through the Red Earth Continent." The soldier explained.

As naval soldiers from Rogue Town, they knew intelligence about a lot of waterways.

"The Red Soil Continent is not an area that ordinary people are allowed to go to. It is illegal for ordinary people to go there. Even pirates would find it troublesome and difficult to cross the Red Soil Continent, so everyone defaults to going to Upside Down Mountain."

"Didn't the world's nobles come to the East China Sea a few years ago? They went through the Red Soil Continent. We can't let those nobles experience the danger and excitement of surfing on the Upside Down Mountain."

As they were talking, they arrived at the naval base. The highest commander here was a colonel, not Smoker that Luffy knew. If he were there, there wouldn't be so many pirates gathering here.

The colonel hurried over and poured Luffy a glass of water.

"Your Highness, I'm very sorry that I can't go to the dock to greet you because I have a lot of things to sort out!" The colonel saluted Lu Fei.

He took out another document with a naval seal.

"The documents for going to the Red Earth Continent are placed here. Please follow the signs. Our navy cannot stay on the Red Earth Continent or go to other areas. We can only use it as a passage."

"Oh, I will stay on this island for a while and practice my swordsmanship. Please talk to my navigator about the relevant knowledge of the waterway."

Luffy handed the document to Nami and smiled at her, "Thank you for your help."

"Leave it to me, Captain!" Nami clenched her fist and smiled sweetly.

"This girl...can she do it?" The colonel glanced at Nami.

"My daughter's navigation skills are very strong. She has taught herself to be better than the navigators in ordinary naval bases." Bellmère said.

"Is that so? He's a genius... Bellmère? Are you Bellmère?" The colonel noticed Bellmère, suddenly stunned, and asked uncertainly.

"You are..." Bellmère never thought that he would meet someone acquaintance in the navy, but this is the naval base in Rogue Town. He shouldn't know her. It's too far away.

"I once survived the war in the Kingdom of Oikot. At that time, I was still an ordinary soldier in the base, and you were a general officer. Later, I was promoted here..."

Bell-mère's eyes darkened. In the battle between the navy and pirates in the Kingdom of Oikot, her subordinates were almost killed and she herself was seriously injured. Finally, she met Nokigo who was holding Nami. She saw hell that day. The ignorant laughter of young Nami echoed in the tragic battlefield, making her survive very unwillingly.

"I still remember that when Golden Lion escaped from prison, you said that if Golden Lion dared to come to Donghai, you would beat him away..." the colonel recalled the past.

"..."

Bellmère showed an awkward but polite smile, "I was ignorant at the time, so please don't say such things again..."

"So Bell-mère was so great before?" Nojigo exclaimed.

"So we are all acquaintances. You guys can chat slowly. Nokiko, Uta, do you want to go for a walk here?" Luffy asked.

"I'll just stay with Nami." said Nojigo.

"Then let's take a walk here first, and then join Nami after she has finished learning about sailing." Uta said.

The two men left the naval base and walked aimlessly on the busy streets.

"This place is more prosperous than Glass Bead Island!" Uta exclaimed.

"After all, it's the only transit station for most people and has a special geographical location," Luffy said.

"Luffy, take a picture for me."

Uta put the camera-taking Den Den Mushi in Luffy's hand, then trotted to an intersection and posed.

With a click, the camera captured the girl's youth.

Girls really like taking photos. Uta posed in various ways, walking through the streets and alleys, with a smile never disappearing from her face.

But the camera in my hand was also extremely powerful and recorded everything.

This strange biological power camera makes it difficult for Luffy to evaluate.

"Luffy, look, it's a school!" Uta said, pointing at the elementary school in Rogue Town.

This kind of educational facility is also a symbol of economic prosperity.

Uta went to the ice cream shop next to the school and ordered a five-layer ice cream, which was piled high.

"Didn't I? Uta is overdoing it."

"Hehehe, I won't buy it for Luffy. I've wanted to try it before and buy a five-layer ice cream, but I was worried that I wouldn't be able to finish it, so I could only buy the regular one." Uta said with a smile.

She licked the ice cream with enjoyment, skipping forward, her twin pigtails of different colors dancing in the air.

Before we knew it, we had arrived at the weapons sales area, and there were more pirates around us, all of them were warriors looking for something powerful.

A bit of a strange feeling.

Luffy looked towards the weapons store with crossed swords in the crowd, where the pirates were looking at various swords, guns and cannons.

"The little girl is so cute, isn't the adult around?"

A pair of hands were placed on Uta's shoulders. The pirate, who was more than two meters tall, lowered his head and showed a smile with a few missing teeth.
