Harem Voyage: Starting with Overturning Nami

However...

"Hey bro, don't underestimate this tavern. It may not look like much, but it's been around for over a hundred years, and the wine the owner brews is absolutely delicious."

"If it weren't for the fact that you're my good brother, I would never have told you."

A familiar voice came from the tavern entrance.

Bartolomeo put his arm around Bai Luo's shoulder and boasted as they walked into the tavern.

"Boss, hurry up and bring up all your best wine and food. I'm treating my good brother to dinner today."

However, the usually enthusiastic boss remained unmoved today.

He lifted his sleepy eyelids and looked to the side with a smile.

Bartolomeo, puzzled, followed his gaze.

"Ok??"

"Damn it! Smoker!"

It would be absurd if Bartolomeo, who has spent years in the underworld, didn't even know Smoker.

"What bad luck, brother, I'll take you somewhere else."

"It's not as good as here, but it's still great."

Bartolomeo muttered to himself, but in his heart he had already cursed Smoker countless times.

However, just as he was pulling Bai Luo to leave,

"Wait!!"

A soft shout of 4.9 from inside the tavern interrupted the two.

"Ok??"

"Smoker, are you trying to cause me trouble?"

"Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you're a naval captain. I'm also a Devil Fruit user. If you're not happy, let's fight."

Just as Bartolomeo mentally prepared himself to face Smoker...

He turned around, only to find that Smoker wasn't targeting him at all.

Because his gaze was no longer on himself, but fixed on Bai Luo.

"What's this??"

Bartolomeo was confused and had no idea what Bai Luo was up to.

"Bai Luo, the vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, you're the one who created Fire Lightning and Swift Blade, aren't you??"

With three cigars dangling from his mouth, Smoker stood up, and a terrifying burst of energy erupted from his body.

"I was planning to go find you, but I didn't expect you to come to me on your own."

A smile suddenly appeared on his extremely ferocious face.

"Bai Luo, it seems your time has come. Even the heavens don't want you to leave this place."

What are your thoughts?

"Smoker, I think you're here to give me practice, since I'll be facing all sorts of Logia-type Devil Fruit users once we enter the Grand Line."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat heavy because of a sentence spoken by the two people.

Even Bartolomeo was a bit dumbfounded.

"Kid, you're really confident. I don't know where you get your courage from."

Smoker snorted coldly.

"If you had ever witnessed the power of a Logia-type Devil Fruit user, you would understand how foolish you were just saying."

"Think what you want, but in my eyes you're just a weakling."

Bai Luo said casually.

He knew Smoker's strength all too well.

When the power system in the One Piece world was not yet fully developed.

This guy is unbeatable.

However, in the later stages, a domineering character was introduced.

This guy is unbeatable.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere inside the arena grew increasingly tense.

A strong wind picked up outside, making the windows rattle loudly.

"Since you're so confident in your abilities, don't beg for mercy later."

Smoker snorted coldly, no longer bothering to waste any more words with Bai Luo.

Once this guy is arrested, no amount of eloquence will work.

Just then, two strong gusts of wind blew by.

Two figures, one in red and one in blue, appeared on either side of Bai Luo.

The speed was so fast that even Bartolomeo, who was standing next to Bai Luo, was startled.

"Ok??"

Smoker, who was about to make a move, was also slightly taken aback.

He temporarily stopped what he was doing.

"These are the Fire Thunder and Swift Blade that you created, right?"

"No wonder you dared to show up here so confidently, it turns out it's because of these two guys."

Upon seeing the two, Smoker, also known as 057, began to observe them with great interest.

Especially that guy Huo Leiting.

He can hold his own against Hawkeye for a couple of moves without being at a disadvantage.

He also had to be careful.

"I don't need to deal with you; you should defeat them first."

"You... so you're Bai Luo, the blacksmith who's been wanted by the Navy recently??"

Looking at the two steel giants in front of him, Bartolomeo finally remembered.

After all, as a person from the East Blue, it's necessary to have some understanding of the pirates in the East Blue.

But he never expected it to be such a coincidence.

　"What? You know me too??"

Bai Luo smiled and looked at Bartolomeo.

It's not surprising that Smoker recognized him, after all, he was a naval captain from the East China Sea.

Bai Luo is a newly emerging great pirate in the East Sea.

But Bartolomeo was different.

"Of course, of course I know you. No, no, no, there are very few people who don't know you these days."

"I thought you looked familiar, like I'd seen you somewhere before. I never imagined you were Bai Luo! You're the pride of the East Blue! You're now the most famous pirate in the East Blue."

Bartolomeo's tone became somewhat hurried as he spoke.

Clearly, Bai Luo's reputation has spread far and wide.

Am I that famous??

Bai Luo touched his nose dejectedly.

He was a little embarrassed by what Bartolomeo said.

Could this guy have mistaken me for someone else?

"Of course, you're a big celebrity in the East Blue now. I heard you even defeated Arlong, the fish-man partner of Jinbe, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. That's amazing."

"And to be able to fight the world's strongest swordsman, Hawkeye, without being at a disadvantage, is something that ordinary people simply cannot do."

Bartolomeo was as if he had met his idol, spitting everywhere.

He became somewhat incoherent.

"So this is ah."

"I never expected to become so famous. I should just keep a low profile."

Bai Luo and Bartolomeo chatted happily, as if they were kindred spirits who had known each other for a long time.

"Hey!! You two bastards!!!"

"Aren't you guys taking me way too lightly?"

Smoker's face darkened as he realized he was being ignored by the two men.

In an instant, a large amount of smoke billowed from his body, enveloping the entire tavern.

Visibility was extremely low throughout the entire area.

Clearly, he was preparing to take action.

"Hey, what are you trying to do?!"

Bartolomeo was unwilling to let Smoker attack Bai Luo.

He couldn't just stand by and watch his idol get bullied by Smoker.

As he spoke, he stepped forward, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and struck a very strange pose.

"If you want to touch Bai Luo, you'll have to get past me first, Smoker. Normally it's fine, but today I won't let you take Bai Luo away no matter what."

Barto's eyes were firm, and he stood in front of Bai Luo, his body unwavering.

"Bartolomeo, I've had my eye on you for a long time, and today I'll take care of you too."

Smoker snorted and emitted even more smoke.

Within this thick smoke, a terrifying killing intent surged.

"you wanna die"

Bartofa (Li Zhao) let out an angry shout and was about to step forward to fight.

However, at this moment.

A broad, thick hand suddenly reached out and blocked his way.

"I appreciate your kindness, but this is my own battle."

"Let me do it."

"Let me deal with this problem first, then we'll drink later."

After saying that, he walked up to Bartolomeo.
