Pirate: I am King Luffy

Luffy and his crew only need to take the sand cart to these five places. The rest of the places are small, poor cities, backward areas, with no scenery to see and severe drought.

"Alabasta will definitely prosper with the help of cars!" said Vivi.

Transportation is very important. When transportation speed is increased, it will drive the development of surrounding areas.

"Do you know swordsmanship?"

Kosa looked at the King Sword behind Luffy curiously. From its exposed appearance, the King Sword was much better than the greatsword behind him.

"Yeah, a little bit." Luffy nodded.

"Luffy's swordsmanship is so powerful that he can defeat the carnivorous plants in the desert." Vivi couldn't wait to say to Kosa.

"How powerful! Can kids like us defeat such a large monster?" Kosa was shocked.

"All it takes is practice and guidance from a teacher." Luffy smiled.

Kosa is a kind person, but he can be impulsive.

Kosha's father Duoduo came hurriedly, "Welcome, Princess."

"Yoba is still very simple, please forgive me for my poor hospitality."

"it does not matter."

"You must be Duoduo, the person in charge of Yoba. We are here to build a car dealership on the king's orders. Please plan a workshop for us."

The craftsmen said to Duoduo.

"I see……"

The adults started talking about things, and Weiwei waved to her friends: "Come, there is an ancient relic in Yoba, it has a long history!"

Weiwei said.

"Ancient ruins?" Uta asked.

Kosa got into the car and sat in the third row of the back seat. He saw Luffy insert the spring representing the key into the hole and twist it a few times.

With a click, the car was activated again.

The co-pilot was Weiwei because she was in the front showing the way.

The second row was where Bellemere and the three girls sat, and the third was where the craftsmen sat.

Luffy turned the steering wheel and drove in the direction Vivi said.

The ancient ruins are located at a place that takes three or four hours to reach if one rides a camel from Joba. It is more than 40 kilometers away and is quite far away.

An hour's drive is enough.

The car left the oasis, Luffy pressed a button, the outer wheels lifted up and retracted to reveal a ship-shaped structure, the sails unfolded, and the sand car sped away.

"Wow, it's amazing! Gears and springs can be used to make so many things. I thought they could only make small toys." Kosa exclaimed while leaning against the window.

"Nojigo thought so before, but there is an island that is completely supported by springs and gears and stands hundreds of meters in the sky. They use super-giant gears and springs to maintain the operation of the entire island..."

Nojigo painted a scene from Clockwork Island.

In that place, people used giant springs and gears to keep an island floating, and the giant springs had been turning for decades.

"Is there such a magical place in the world?" Kosha couldn't believe it.

After arriving at the ancient ruins, Weiwei got off the car and acted as a tour guide.

Luffy knocked on the bricks of the ruins, and cracks appeared under the blow, and they fell down with a crash.

"The civilization of this land has been built for thousands of years. Countless countries were born and disappeared. Sometimes they migrated in search of water, and sometimes wars broke out. Such ruins often appear on this land, as well as various mysteries..."

Weiwei said.

"Then the Alabasta dynasty was born." Uta walked across the mottled tiles curiously, then sat down and listened to Vivi's story.

"No matter how prosperous a dynasty is, it cannot escape the fate of disappearing, just like Rome," said Kosa.

"Actually... when Weiwei sees these relics, she can't help but wonder what a country is."

Weiwei said as she looked at these ancient cities.

"Will there be a day when... Alabasta will become like this?"

"Because of war or other reasons, only these buildings will be left..."

"No, isn't King Cobra a very good king? He is a king loved by the people." Nami patted Vivi's shoulder.

"Yes, Vivi, as long as the king continues like this, Alabasta will definitely continue to exist." Kosa also said.

"Alabasta has been maintained for twelve generations. Vivi will be the thirteenth king and a great queen."

“…The great queen?” Weiwei looked at the yellow sand in the distance with some concern.

"I don't know what to do yet..."

"Vivi." Luffy called out, then put his finger on the back of her head.

Weiwei turned her head and was hit on the forehead.

"It hurts!"

Vivi took two steps back, covered her forehead with her hands and looked at Luffy with grievance, her eyes turning red.

"Hehehe..." Luffy showed an expression of successful prank.

"Luffy, you can't bully your sister!" Uta said fiercely.

Weiwei sniffed and rushed forward to bounce back without showing any weakness.

But Luffy grabbed both of her hands with one hand, then supported her waist and lifted her up.

"Luffy, let me go!!!" Vivi's legs were dangling in the air.

"!" Kosha looked at this and didn't know whether he should go up to help Weiwei. They seemed to have a good relationship. If they were just playing around, it wouldn't matter if this happened.

Weiwei herself is a very wild princess.

He was still thinking when Uta rushed over and pinched Luffy's nose.

"Don't bully your sister, be a good brother!"

Kosa suddenly felt a little redundant and had to stand aside.

After a while of playing, the sky darkened and the whistling evening breeze blew across the desert. The sudden drop in temperature made them wrap up their clothes and sit in a row to look at the stars.

"Weiwei."

Luffy pulled Vivi over and threw her onto his knees with the back of her hands falling down. Vivi closed her eyes in fear, because she knew how strong Luffy was.

Luffy scared Vivi and rubbed her forehead while the girl closed her eyes.

"I always feel like... Weiwei is trying hard to be the good kid that others praise. It's okay to not be that good, right?"

"This is your first time living in this world. Don't always think about living for others. Before you became a princess, you were just Weiwei."

Luffy said.

“As for me, I think we just need to focus on what’s happening right now and do what we think is right;

When faced with something unpleasant, running away is also possible;

When you hesitate, you will regret whatever you do. You will regret it anyway, so just choose the easier way now."

Luffy smiled and pinched Vivi's cheeks and gently pulled them out.

"Weiwei is a princess herself, why do you always want to be the great princess that others talk about?"

"How great does one have to be to deserve this word?"

"Don't make yourself too anxious, just calm down and don't do anything that you will regret."

“Finally, if you encounter a difficult problem and cannot solve it, please ask for your help.”

"Brothers help their sisters."

"Luffy..." Vivi opened her eyes and looked at the boy in the moonlight with a warm smile, her eyes trembling.

Nami supported her head with her hands and looked at Luffy with a slight smile on her face.

"But..." Kosha couldn't help but say.

He thought that what Luffy said in the first half was very good, but he held an opposite view on whether the princess needed to be great.

"Although what you said makes sense, Vivi is not a child from an ordinary family. She is the princess of Alabasta and the future queen. If she is not great enough, how many people will suffer!"

"Weiwei must be a great princess in order for us to survive."

"That's really weird."

Luffy looked at Kosa in confusion.

"Will an ordinary princess make your life difficult?"

"Weiwei is just an ordinary princess now."

"That's not what I meant. She will have rights in the future," Kosa argued.

"That's only in the future. There's not much point in talking about the future now. We don't know what the future will be like."

"Weiwei is my sister. I hope she can live according to her own wishes. This is an order from me. If you have any objections, then challenge me first."

Luffy said as the fiery red light slowly illuminated the desolate ruins.

Being stared at by such eyes, Kosha subconsciously took two steps back, his heart pounding, and he felt a fear he had never felt before.

The violent wind blew in my face, rushed into the distance, and disappeared into the vast night.

This is not wind, it is clearly a monster roaring at the world.

He is a monster.

Kosa firmly believed.

No normal person's eyes would turn this red, they were definitely the eyes of a monster.

"Luffy, Kosa, stop arguing." Vivi hurriedly sat up from Luffy's arms and looked at the two of them nervously.

"We didn't quarrel." The light in Luffy's eyes slowly dimmed until it disappeared.

"Just to drive away the beasts at night in the desert." Luffy said.

"Go back, it's late."

Kosa said nothing. When he sat in the car, he realized that his clothes were soaked with sweat.

After staying in Yoba for a day, Luffy set off again to return to Arubana.

The Saint Island where Alabasta is located is a very large island. Even traveling around the five cities took a lot of time, and each city stayed for a long time to enjoy the scenery. When returning to Aruba, I saw another guardian god of Alabasta.

Jackal Gaka.

One of the strongest warriors in Alabasta.

Jaka is a warrior with grayish-dark skin, which seems to be tanned by the sun.

He is the user of the Animal-type, Dog-Dog Fruit, Jackal Form ability, and like Bell, he is a swordsman.

If you have nothing to do, try leveling up.

"Uncle Bell, can I touch your machine gun?"

Luffy first approached Bell and asked.

I am very concerned about Bell's machine gun, after all, it is a fighting chicken.

"Please take a look, but be careful, these bullets and weapons are very wild."

Bell generously displayed his arsenal.

Two wooden handheld machine guns and belts of brass-colored bullets wrapped around their bodies.
