Pirate: I am King Luffy

"But, can that secret treasure really make people's wishes come true?" Luffy asked the locals.

"Well... I don't know." said the royal sister.

"The only person who knows more about Kamiyama is Ham's mother. She is the elder of this town. She knows what the consequences will be after the seal of Kamiyama is opened by pirates... So she took a sword and went alone to stop the pirates..."

Uta looked at them in silence, looking at the little boy named Ham.

"We are leaving. We hope you can start over and live happily." said Uta.

"Well, after all, the disaster is over. Thank you for saving the city."

"Let me sing a song for you..."

Moo Moo carried the mechanical boat on its back, shaking its head on the shore, listening to Uta's song. It floated upwards along the current, carrying the boat on its back.

When they came out, they were already on the other side of the sea navel, and they saw some reefs blocking the current.

Several reefs extend from the seabed, forming this large whirlpool.

"I see. This is how the sea navel environment was formed."

Nami suddenly realized.

"Is this normal?" Luffy asked.

"Yeah, it's normal." Nami said.

"By using reefs to block the undercurrents on the seabed and then redirecting the currents, a large whirlpool can be formed. At the headquarters, it was mentioned that the murlocs can use this power to create deep-sea whirlpools that can directly swallow up warships on the sea surface. However, this requires a detailed perception of the ocean currents, and even very powerful murlocs may not be able to create one."

"The environment here forms a vortex array, and the reef arrays form key nodes that make the deep-sea vortex continue, forming such a sea navel."

"So that's how it is. There is an iron chain on this reef." Uta said, pointing to one of the reefs.

"Moo, what's tied under the chain?" Luffy shouted.

The manatee took out a treasure chest.

"It's a treasure chest!" Nami exclaimed.

Moo accidentally crushed the box, and the wooden treasure chest was broken into pieces by the strange force, and the items inside were also crushed into pieces.

"Treasure chest--" Nami stretched her hand in the air, not having time to feel sorry for the treasure inside.

They saw that there was only a skull in the box, and the skull was crushed to pieces.

The piece with words on it flew into the air.

[The glory of jumping into the navel of the sea, where lies the secret treasure that can make your dreams come true]

Chapter 261 Return to Rogue Town

261.

2023-11-13

After coming out of the sea navel, Nami contacted the nearby navy, re-determined her position, and the ship set off towards Rogue Town.

Luffy wanted to ease the relationship with the girl and quietly opened the Uta Music Room.

"Uta, I'm coming in~"

Luffy said quietly.

Uta was stretching her legs, pressing her white legs against the railing. When she heard Luffy's voice, she leaned back gracefully and bent into a C shape.

It was really amazing. Luffy found this kind of action terrifying, but after thinking about it, he felt that he could also achieve this level. He just needed to let his body enter the life return state and coordinate.

It turns out that I am also a scary person, so it’s okay.

"What are you doing!" the girl said angrily.

"This is a private practice room."

"I came to discuss Vivi's matter with you."

Luffy already had a legitimate reason.

"Are you still angry?"

"Not too angry." The girl closed her eyes, beads of sweat sliding down her forehead, and her hair fell due to gravity.

Because she was practicing dancing, she only tied her hair into two simple ponytails. The left and right ponytails were of different colors. Luffy just thought they were great.

He walked over and picked up the twin ponytails that had fallen on the ground, then held the two ends and thought mischievously whether he should tie a knot for Uta.

He sat cross-legged under the girl's head and held her hair in his arms.

"Most boys will become very perverted when they grow up. I've known this for a long time. But when did Luffy's growth go astray? At least he should be like Shanks. Obviously Shanks is not very perverted."

Uta said, shaking his head.

"I..." Luffy was speechless.

"But... people are always different, there's nothing we can do about it." Uta sighed, but in fact he felt a little secretly happy in his heart, because Luffy is a different person from Shanks, and there are differences between them.

"When Luffy was little, he would peek under Uta's skirt and he felt very confident about it," said Uta.

"Uh... at that time, it was just an accident." Luffy embarrassedly scratched his face with his fingers.

I think so, I forgot...

She looked at Luffy with purple eyes. Because she was upside down, she thought the visual effect was good. She moved her head and fell on Luffy's legs.

Luffy likes knee pillows, and she also wants to try this feeling. It looks very beautiful. Luffy will fall asleep in Vivi's arms, and then Uta will see the nostrils!

Her body suddenly lifted up, and Luffy was looking down, and their heads bumped into each other.

"This is so terrible, it's all Luffy's fault!"

Uta held his head, his eyes watering with pain.

"Why did Uta stand up all of a sudden?" Luffy rubbed his head, and couldn't help laughing when he saw Uta dropping little pearls.

"It's all your fault!" Uta said angrily.

"Luffy is so weird, why do you like knee pillows? It must be embarrassing to see your nostrils, right?"

“……”Luffy looked at Uta strangely.

"Your focus is so weird. Why did you jump there all of a sudden? I can't see it." Luffy sighed.

"It will be blocked. Uta is really stupid."

"Oh, that's right..." She also suddenly realized that she would be blocked by the four-dimensional pocket, so it would not destroy the atmosphere.

But she couldn't forget the scene just now, and could only sigh, "I don't think about this kind of thing anymore, the shadow in my heart is too big."

"The topic is getting weirder and weirder. Please be normal!"

"If you want to talk about deviation, it should be Uta, right? She is a big star, but she has unexpected things happening behind the scenes. When did Uta start to do that?"

Luffy said, but he was curious again. When would a girl develop that branch? Probably... it's similar to boys, and they learn it by themselves, right?

Wuta's eyes widened, not wanting to talk about such a topic, "Let's talk about Weiwei."

Luffy nodded, thinking that Uta was so cute for changing the subject in this way, and couldn't help but move closer. Uta looked at Luffy who was getting closer and closer, his eyes moving, and he stretched his neck and closed his eyes.

But nothing happened.

She quietly opened one eye and saw Luffy thoughtfully saying, "Is Uta still angry?"

She became very angry inside, "Yeah! Still angry! Hurry up and finish talking to Weiwei and get out. Don't disturb Uta's homework!"

"There's vocal practice later!"

"Sister Uta... so scary." Luffy turned his head and covered his ears. Uta looked at Luffy like this and her lips softened suddenly.

"Can I have a kiss to comfort you?" Luffy asked.

She hummed a small permission, and when Luffy came closer, she closed her eyes, but Luffy sat back down:

"I feel like Uta will bite me, but forget it. If Uta gets angry, she will drag me into my dream and tie me up..."

Luffy sighed regretfully.

Uta clenched his fists and exerted force, pushing Luffy to the ground. Then he slightly opened his soft lips, revealing two pairs of sharp upper and lower fangs, and bit Luffy.

Uta calmed down, knelt on the cushion with her legs together, and wiped her mouth gracefully with the towel beside her, like a vampire who had just finished eating.

Luffy covered his mouth and used his life to repair the small wound, "I'm so sorry..."

In the past, I was very happy to be naughty, but now I regret it.

"Uta is not angry anymore?"

Luffy rolled on the ground.

"Originally... I'm not that angry. My feelings... are a little complicated. I don't want to see Luffy looking at other women, but I also think that the talent show scene is very normal. There's nothing wrong with it. It's very contradictory..." Uta said.

“It’s a very strange emotion.”

"It's the desire to be exclusive. We are all selfish. Living things are selfish, so we will refuse to share everything we have..." Luffy said.

"Refuse to share..." Uta frowned, and she suddenly remembered what Nojiko and Nami said to her when she was in Kokoyasi Village.

[…No, Uta will also be keen on sharing when she grows up]

The words of childhood echo in my heart, traveling through time and resounding in the present.

"No way, Luffy makes me angry every day, and my emotions just exploded!" The purple eyes widened and Uta smiled at Luffy.

"Look, everyone was on the boat, but Luffy sneaked out to watch the beauty pageant and left us all on the boat!"

"For Uta in the fashion industry, the clothing matching of beauty pageants is also very meaningful. Uta is just angry that you didn't invite me to join you!"

She put her hands on her hips and spoke fiercely to Luffy.

"Is that so? Is that possible?"

Luffy wasn't sure either. Girls on the Internet didn't seem to have any aversion to catwalks. Maybe it was really what Uta said.

"Next time there's a match like this, I'll call you guys!" Luffy cheered up, "Next time we'll all watch it together!"

Yes, I'm not going to do anything bad. There have been many beauty pageants in the pirate world, so what's wrong with watching it openly?

Miss Fashion is also very popular among magazines, not to mention that some of the clothes will be tried on by models.

Uta stared with a pair of purple eyes, and it took him a long time to spit out the two words "OK" through his teeth.

After resolving the Uta's angry incident, Luffy started talking about Vivi again.

"The events in Alabasta are being reported in the newspapers like a TV series. She's bound to find out..."

After discussing some details with Uta, Luffy went out contentedly.

Uta watched the door slowly close, "I wanted to ask about Nami, but now I can't."

Uta stood up and did her homework with some annoyance.

That night, Nami, like her, was very angry about Luffy's absence, so they went out to look for him together.

Is it the desire for exclusivity?

That shouldn’t be the case. Wouldn’t that make me a person who is unwilling to share?

He was just as angry as I was that the captain had left us alone to watch the game.

Thinking of this, she felt much more relaxed.

Only a filthy captain would want to be the only one who enjoys the pleasure, but Uta is not that kind of person.

Luffy was thinking about going to the cafeteria to get some snacks, but then he was caught by Kuina.

"Luffy, let's train." She said, holding the Wado Ichimonji, "I incorporated paper painting into swordsmanship, and wanted to try it out. Other styles don't work well for me."

"So fast?" Luffy was a little surprised.

"In swordsmanship, there is a saying about the breathing of all things. It has a similar meaning to the paper drawing, which is about feeling the flow of air. It's just a different description." Kuina said.

“Paper drawings are more straightforward, but I feel that the mere movement of air is not enough to approach the concept of all things breathing.”

"It seems that the world used to be a whole." Luffy said with a smile.

"The ultimate version is the Haki of Observation Haki. These are just ways to describe Observation Haki."
