Pirate: I am King Luffy

Luffy immediately thought of Enma, the sword that would arbitrarily drain the user's Haki.

"When you swung this great sword, did you feel its characteristics? Characteristics as obvious as those of Xuezou and Kitetsu?"

"Apart from the sharpness and weight of the sword itself, there are no extra feelings, right?"

This is why the sword is restraining itself, because you are the first generation of sword master, it will also restrain its own character,

Don't lose.

The moment you lose, it will realize that there are better users and will abandon you without hesitation. The blade will bite you, right?"

The store manager looked at the double blades of the greatsword, white smoke coming out of his mouth and nose.

"So, we should be thankful that it is only one step away from becoming a great sword. The demon sword among the great swords is not that easy to drive."

"So, my sword has a second transformation, right?"

Luffy picked up the sword again and felt a slight discomfort in his hand.

How is this possible? I have used this sword many times, and the feel should be perfectly suited to it.

It's not like the feel of the sword would be shifted if I grabbed another sword, right?

"Sir, are you sure you don't want to give up this sword? I will buy it back for 800,000 berries."

"Just pay for me. I only want these two." Luffy pointed at Kitetsu and Xuezou.

"Hmph, then I'm looking forward to your story with this great sword, you bastard brat. A total of 50 million Baileys."

"The navy will send the money over in a couple of days," Luffy said.

"One last question. That sword must have been used to cut many things, right? Why does it look like a new one and doesn't even need any maintenance?" asked the boss.

He knows all the stories about swords, but the sharp sword and good sharp sword in his hand need regular maintenance, but the one in Luffy's hand does not need maintenance.

"Maybe... it's because of the domineering attitude."

Luffy said as he sheathed his sword.

Will Black Blade Qiu Shui also have special features? What are they?

Luffy tried hard to recall, to see if he could match his boss' story.

Besides being heavy, the damage is also doubled?

He vaguely remembered the description of Black Blade Qiu Shui.

It turns out that swordsmen are all sword holders, so it's okay.

As long as the weapons are changed quickly, the version update is not bad.

"It's amazing that weapons have so many strange legends." Uta walked beside Luffy, licking the ice cream obediently.

Rogue Town was in chaos. Luffy was distracted for only a few seconds when he was attacked by pirates. The distance between the two sides was only four meters, and the pirates would attack openly.

She suddenly placed the remaining three layers of ice cream in front of Luffy, "Here, I can't eat any more."

"You were planning to do this from the beginning, right?" Luffy sighed as he took the ice cream that Uta had licked.

It's become a dessert processor.

"Hehehe, this way we don't have to worry about wasting food, and we can still eat a lot of delicious food."

Uta went to the clothing store again and bought a lot of beautiful clothes. She also asked Luffy to take pictures of her. Luffy ate ice cream while taking pictures and did not return to the base until the evening.

"Bellmaire, why did you give up your military position in the navy? If it were you, you should be able to become the commander of a branch base, right?"

Luffy, carrying a lot of bags and two swords hanging on his waist, heard the colonel ask Bell-mère.

"Oh, yes, why Bell-mère?" Nami was also confused about this.

Bellmère is a very talented sailor. He clearly has a lot of room for advancement. With a navy salary, he won't be so poor.

"If you ask why... it's because my courage to live is supported by my two lovely daughters." Bellmère said with a smile.

"Are Nami and Nokiko so powerful?"

"You are everything to me." Bellmère answered without hesitation.

"Is that the reason? That's right. There's a very strong bounty hunter named Dadi in Rogue Town. He was originally a navy officer, but he retired from the navy because he wanted to take care of his daughter..."

"He had a battle with the red-haired sniper, but unfortunately he was defeated," said the colonel.

"Jesus cloth?" Uta said in surprise.

"Yes, that's him." The colonel nodded.

"Welcome back." Nami tilted her head to look at Luffy, who was covered in bags.

“Are there many fun things in Rogue Town?”

“It’s a very prosperous island.”

"Then I'll look forward to the day after tomorrow." Nami said with a smile.

She needed a day to get a general understanding of the Grand Line.

Learning from the navy, that sea area is a mysterious sea that cannot be understood by common sense.

"Okay, I also need some time to clean up this island."

Luffy looked at the Colonel.

"How many people are there in the naval base? Can they surround the island?"

"Ah, Your Highness, are you going to clean up the pirates?" As a navy officer, the colonel already knew Luffy's style.

"There's something wrong with my grip on the sword. I need to correct it."

Luffy looked at his hands and grabbed the air.

"We can't surround this island. It's too big and there aren't that many people."

"The pirates who can reach Rogue Town are all very powerful pirates in the East China Sea. Their strength and luck have been screened. This practice is very dangerous."

"Then do as much as you can and just follow me," he said.

"Excuting an order."

"Yes!"

The colonel said subconsciously.

2023-09-03

The next morning, sharp eagle whistles sounded throughout the naval base.

Thousands of naval soldiers stood in uniform on the parade ground, with swords on their waists and muskets in their hands, waiting for orders from their superiors.

In fact, the firepower equipment of the naval base in Rogue Town is quite good.

Not only are there a large number of soldiers, but there are also corresponding artillery units that are specially equipped with artillery.

But this firepower is still not enough for Rogue Town.

Because the issue of this island is too ambiguous.

It was the pirates who created the prosperous life of the islanders. They relied on the pirate economy. Even though there were some disturbances, the overall environment was good.

For the islanders, the navy only needs to arrive when the "disaster" occurs, be on call at any time, and provide a military deterrent to the pirates.

There is no need to meddle in other people's business and actively drive away the pirates, so as not to affect everyone's money-making.

There was some gloom and sweat on the colonel's face, he didn't want to deal with the troublesome affairs in Rogue Town. Why should he do something that no one liked? It was a thankless task. Dealing with pirates would make the people in the town hate him. There was no way, they had strong conflicts of interest.

But Luffy is his superior, and after being announced in the newspapers, he became the new "Navy Hero", part of the propaganda, and the grandson of the great Navy hero Iron Fist Garp.

The colonel is in the navy's military system and has no right to disobey Luffy, as Luffy is his superior.

This is too troublesome. Why did I have to face this trouble during my term?

The colonel wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought of a solution. I don't want to deal with the trouble after the pirates disappear.

Ah, I got it. I will use this opportunity to report to my superiors and get another promotion!

He thought with a sudden inspiration.

Luffy's political identity is ambiguous. He is from the navy department, but also not from the navy department. Because he does not have an official position, the "Navy Hero" bestowed by the Propaganda Department is more like an honorary title and a symbol.

Therefore, the pirates dealt with by Luffy are also a kind of political achievement resource. He only needs to add one more name when reporting. Brigadier General Pudding Pudding was also commended internally because of this, and promotion is a sure thing.

All he had to do was write in the report that he assisted Luffy in defeating the pirates.

This is what actually happened. Great, let’s do it this way. After the promotion, the subsequent conflicts in Rogue Town will be left to later generations to deal with.

Thinking of this, the colonel suddenly had an idea and had prepared a speech in his mind.

"Soldiers, today we are following our Marine heroes to do the right thing.

We should have done this, but hesitation made our justice uncertain.

Here, in Rogue Town, the pirates are walking freely in the sight of our navy, they hold their heads high and even point fingers at us..."

"…Collaborating with pirates is not the fault of this island, nor the fault of the civilians. It is the fault of our navy. It is the fault of our navy that cannot deal with evil.

Today, under the leadership of heroes, we will return to the right path. We exist for justice!"

He raised his command knife high: "For justice!"

"For justice!"

The soldiers held their guns and shouted loudly, the anger in their hearts having been ignited by the colonel.

"Your Highness, please give me your instructions!"

The colonel gave up his command.

Ah... the label of justice is boring, but it is real and effective.

Luffy held up the King Sword and thought without further ado, "Destroy all the pirate ships at the dock."

"Yes!"

Soldiers came out of the naval base with murderous looks on their faces. They pointed their guns and surrounded the pirates on the street. Civilians were pushed back home.

"What's going on with this group of navy?"

Merchants were forced to close their shops and cursed in confusion.

"Don't disturb my business. Damn it, if I close the shop for a day, I will lose tens of thousands of Baileys..."

"Hey, hey, are these navy guys going crazy?" A pirate smiled at the navy guys unkindly.

The pirates with keen senses have already realized that this group of navy are coming to target them. The aura they exude is exactly the same as the navy that captured them before.

"Isn't it said that the navy of Rogue Town is a good dog?"

"Aren't they afraid of offending us pirates?"

"Captain, something terrible has happened. The navy has blocked the dock. There are so many navy officers!"

"Our ships have been seized!"

"What? Take back the dock and get the boat!"

"damn it!"

Pirates also swarmed into the dock. For a moment, the civilians shut their mouths and looked at the pirates in fear. They didn't even dare to ask for money. They waited for the pirates to pass by before closing their shops and watching the ensuing battle through the windows.

"Your Highness, the dock has been completely blocked. We will face a crazy counterattack from the pirates next!"

The Colonel said as he stood next to Luffy.

The ship is the pirates' home. Blocking the dock is equivalent to losing their home, and any pirate will be eager to counterattack.

The soldiers had already set up their guns, quietly watching the pirates swarming in from afar.
