The Great Voyage: The Props Master on the Straw Hat Ship

In the world of One Piece, besides Devil Fruits, hypnosis is definitely one of the strange powers.

The Baroque Works agent in front of me, Miss Goldenweek, has a bounty of 29 million Berries and is known as "Marianne, the standard-bearer of freedom".

As Mr. 3's partner, she has the ability to control others through hypnosis and psychological suggestion using the colors she mixes.

Despite not being a Devil Fruit user, he possesses abilities that are in no way inferior to those of Devil Fruit users.

Besides Miss Golden Week, there are two other people who are known for their expertise in hypnosis.

They are Zango, the hypnotist from the East China Sea, who grew a strange mushroom on his chin due to dampness.

He ate it because he was so hungry that he gained the ability to hypnotize.

The other one is Laffitte, the navigator of the Blackbeard Pirates, who was expelled from the West Blue for excessive enforcement of the law.

He opened the door to justice by hypnotizing the Marines, allowing Blackbeard and his crew to move forward.

These are all skilled hypnotists, possessing this special ability, which provides them with considerable convenience.

Zoro at present is a prime example.

Link saw two patterns on him: yellow and green.

One is a yellow-green color that symbolizes the role of "friends":

Once your body is stained with yellow-green paint or has patterns of that color painted on it, you'll become a friend of Miss Golden Week.

She once used this trick to turn a pterosaur in her little garden into her friend, and it obeyed her commands.

The other one is green, which represents leisure, and is a combination of yellow and blue.

Once this color is encountered, the person whose face is painted with it will leisurely want to drink tea.

Miss Goldenweek knew how dangerous Zoro was, so she specially dyed him with two different kinds of paint.

Normally, with Zoro's strong willpower, he wouldn't have fallen for the attack so easily.

However, he had just been injured in a battle and had also comprehended the [Iron-Cutting] realm. His mind was immersed in the comprehension and he did not focus too much on resisting.

Thus, Miss Golden Week exploited the loophole by using two colors.

"Hypnosis, that's indeed a pretty good ability?"

Link stepped forward and gently patted Zoro on the shoulder.

The latter trembled, but remained unmoved.

"I advise you not to make any rash moves, otherwise every action you take will make me think that you are going to attack me, and I will take action against you."

Link looked calmly at Miss Golden Week and said this.

Miss Golden Week, sensing Link's gaze, silently put down the paintbrush she had picked up.

Tap tap tap!

Just then, Link heard footsteps behind him.

"This is Mr. 3?! And...Miss Golden Week?!"

Vivi, with her hair tied in a single ponytail, followed over, and the scene inside immediately caught her attention.

Her expression suddenly changed as she looked at Miss Golden Week, who had two ponytails.

"Don't worry

Link waved his hands behind his back at her, "They are no longer a danger."

Miss Golden Week first silently glanced at Weiwei, the person they were targeting.

Then, finally, he looked at Link.

"A bounty of 55 million for the first mate of the Straw Hat Pirates..."

Miss Golden Week spoke softly, "To have such a high bounty before even entering the Grand Line, you certainly have something special." She first offered a gentle compliment, then feigned confusion, asking, "But as the vice-captain, your bounty is higher than the captain's." "A man like you, with this kind of strength, shouldn't you either take his place, or break away and create your own pirate crew?" "Or..."

She seemed genuinely concerned for Link, saying with unusual sincerity, "Find a place where you can better utilize your strengths and talents." "You mean your Baroque Works?"

Link looked at her with a half-smile.

"I'm sorry, your temple is too small to support a Buddha like me."

"You'd better think this through..."

Miss Golden Week couldn't help but advise, "Our boss is very powerful. As Mr. 1's assassin, his bounty is even higher than yours."

Even so, he still chose to work under our boss; working for a criminal organization is a very promising career! Very promising...

Link just stared at her expressionlessly.

Vivi, who had overheard the entire conversation, couldn't help but speak up as well.

“Mr. Link, he would never associate with a bunch of criminals like you!!”

Well, the main reason is that as a pirate, I am already a criminal.

Link thought to himself.

"By the way, how did you know we were here?"

Link suddenly remembered this.

"Miss AIISunday must have told them!!"

Vivi said angrily.

Robin? She's not that kind of woman!

"It's Whisky Peak."

Meeting Link's probing gaze, Miss Golden Week answered earnestly.

"We couldn't get in touch with Mr. 5 and his crew, or with Whiskey Peak, so we sent someone there to gather intelligence..."

Even the original Navy manga knows that Zoro killed over a hundred bounty hunters there, so Baroque Works naturally knows as well.

She didn't say anything more, but Link pretty much understood.

Miss Golden Week and her friends probably guessed that their next stop would be this little garden, so they came here specifically to wait for them to come to them.

However, while waiting for their prey, they themselves became the prey and were captured first.

"Understood?"

Link nodded slightly to her, then slowly raised his hand.

"It seems that the negotiations have failed."

Seeing this, Miss Golden Week sighed slightly, "Could we perhaps discuss this, we..."

Whoosh! !

A whooshing sound came from the air, and Miss Golden Week's pupils immediately contracted.

Before she could finish speaking, she immediately stopped and raised her hand to meet the attack.

But one

With her childlike physique, how could she possibly be a match for Link?

With just a slight movement, she felt a heavy blow to the back of her head, and then everything went black before her eyes.

扑?

Her small body fell to the ground, barely stirring up any dust.

"Naughty kids should be taught a lesson."

Link picked up the unconscious Miss Goldenweek from the ground and casually tossed her into the distant dense forest.

Whether you can avoid encountering those ferocious beasts and dinosaurs before you wake up depends on your fate and whether God will protect you.

Link shook his hand and then turned to look at Zoro, who was still drinking tea.

The injuries on his body were not treated at all, and the relaxed and carefree feeling caused by the color made his muscles loose, so there was no effective prevention.

Blood had pooled beneath him, and his face was deathly pale from blood loss.

If Link hadn't arrived in time, Zoro might have died from blood loss due to the opponent's color hypnosis ability.

Thus, he fell here unjustly and confusedly.

Since she chose to turn against her own partner, and did so with such ruthlessness, then she shouldn't blame Link for retaliating with the same cruelty.

"Wake up!!"

Link casually wiped away the colors from Zoro's body, and the latter immediately collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

“Almost…”

Zoro clutched the wound on his chest, his face still showing signs of lingering fear.

"How can someone possess such a bizarre ability..."

His face looked rather pale, partly from excessive bleeding and partly from hating himself for getting infected so easily.

"My cultivation is still insufficient; I was so easily swayed by the other party..."

After resting for a while, Zoro struggled to his feet. "It seems I still need to deepen my training in willpower."

He tugged at the corners of his mouth, giving Link a smile that looked more like a grimace:

"Thank you so much, Link."

"No need to be so formal."

Link shook his head, then looked at the small white house behind him.

That was a temporary dwelling that Mr. 3 created using his Wax-Wax Fruit powers.

It must be said that the Wax-Wax Fruit is also quite an impressive ability in sculpting and architecture.

"Is this Mr. 3's base?"

Vivi walked over, looking at the white house with some curiosity.

"Let's go in and take a look; maybe there's something good inside."

Link smiled and took the lead, opening the door and going inside, with Vivi immediately following behind him.

The two seemed inseparable.

On the other side, in the very center of the island, the battle between two legendary captains of the giant race from a hundred years ago was also coming to an end.

"boom!!"

With each of their circular shields slamming into the other's face, the battle came to an end.

Both of them collapsed to the ground, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths.

"It's a tie again."

"Yeah, you're starting to miss home too, aren't you?"

"Of course, it's been a hundred years after all."

A moment of silence fell over the room.

next second.

"Then let's go back, and wait until we defeat you!!"

The two said it in unison.

Then, as if they all knew the other would say that, and without any surprise, they all burst into laughter at the same time.

"Chew, chew, chew!!"

"Crackling sounds!!"

They really know each other too well.

More than a hundred years ago, they were already partners who set sail from Elbaf, and even before that, they were good friends in the village.

The two then joined and became captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates, a crew so fearsome it would be recorded in the annals of Elbaf and even the entire pirate world.

They fought side by side from the New World, and together they made their way to Little Garden, the first half of the Grand Line.

Moreover, at their peak, each of them easily took down a gigantic sea king.
