Arceus' Pirate Journey

"So it was them?! How could I be discovered with my perfect disguise... No! I remember I came here to look for my grandfather. If this is a prison..."

Heluo knew very well that Luffy's mind was very erratic, so it was not surprising that he remembered the things he had forgotten before.

Heku's hand reached in through the gap in the cell, then grabbed Luffy's head and helped him turn it around, allowing him to see the location of the frozen Garp.

"Hehe. [Your grandfather has been caught, and you can't beat him, so you should understand the reality, right?]"

In addition to Garp, there are also imprisoned Coby and others around. However, with so many faces appearing at the same time, Luffy's brain has temporarily reached its limit.

Before Luffy's limited processor could process the situation here, another Heracross appeared in his sight.

Its body size is ten times that of Heluo, with two scars at the corners of its eyes, and even some scars on its shell. Since it appeared here, its target has been extremely clear, and it walked straight towards Heluo.

"He."

If Hero is the good guy, then Heracross is the bad guy. The first thing it did when it arrived here was to fire a ki bomb in the direction of Kin'emon.

This was what Heku had asked it to do before, and no one else tried to stop it. After all, Kin'emon and Kanjuro's actions indirectly led to a change in the outcome of the gambling game, and some cadres were very unhappy about this.

"Hehe. [I asked you to be a jailer, not a babysitter for this kid. Don't forget your identity, and don't make things difficult for the master.]"

This Heracross is not the leader of the tribe, but just a friend of Heracross before leaving Onigashima. To be precise, they were friends before they became Pokémon and were just a group of ordinary rhinoceros beetles.

During the time Luffy was unconscious, Hero had mobilized all his connections, including asking old friends to teach Kin'emon a lesson and scold himself at the same time, so that Luffy could understand the seriousness of the matter.

Because of the different paths chosen at the beginning, Heracross also had different evolutionary directions. Because of the two bites of food, Heracross was on a path of no return and had to specialize in intelligence.

Asian followed Uta in performing everywhere, and his flying and speed were trained, while Heracross, who stayed on Ghost Island, embarked on the path of a warrior, and the scars on his body were proof of that.

As Hero had asked it to do before, it drove Hero away from here and signaled Luffy to go to work immediately.

Chapter 1337: Troubled General, Deficit Prison

"Kinemon and Kanjuro? These names are really familiar. So they took the opportunity to return to Wano Country a few days ago, is that right?"

Kozuki Hiyori leaned on a sofa with an expressionless face. There was naturally a seat for the general in the palace, but apart from representing power, that position itself was not very comfortable.

Her current power comes from the Beasts. Although it is still the orthodox regime of Wano Country, it is essentially just a pseudo-regime. For example, in this matter, Kaido sent someone to inform her after he had enough fun.

There was no point in sitting in that position like a wooden sculpture every day, so she had no intention of torturing herself and just did it in a comfortable way.

"Hiyori-sama, this is what the message from Onigashima said... The person who set the fire was also a mannequin made by Kanjuro's Pen-Pen Fruit, but it's very strange. I remember that Kanjuro's painting skills are very poor, so he shouldn't be able to draw such an exquisite portrait..."

This is also what Kawamatsu was puzzled about. He knew Kanjuro before and knew that he had his own "magic", a magic that relied on painting skills.

In the closed-door environment at that time, most people in Wano had no idea about devil fruits. Even if they accidentally ate the fruit, they would only think that it was extremely unpalatable.

The abilities subsequently acquired would become sorcery in their cognition. In order to make Kanjuro stronger, they had helped Kanjuro study painting skills. However, Kanjuro's talent seemed to be completely absent in painting, and what he painted could only be described as abstract.

It was easy for him to draw the picture of the mythical bird Phoenix into a picture of a chicken eating rice. In reality, 20 years had passed, but Kawamatsu also knew that for Kanjuro, only a few days had passed. This kind of breakthrough was too exaggerated.

"They are really hardworking. They can even do something like this for Momonosuke."

Hiyori Kozuki had no idea that Kanjuro was originally an undercover agent of Kurozumi Orochi. She just thought that he had realized something in order to rescue Momonosuke. The more she thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt.

Originally, Hiyori Kozuki was in a dilemma. The more others wanted to do something for Momonosuke, the more she would bring themselves into the picture and imagine if the roles were reversed, and whether they would still work so hard.

The conclusions drawn were basically all denials, and this time was no exception. After all, he was in the Flower Capital, and this was no secret in Wano Country. He could find out by asking any passerby.

Similarly, her whereabouts were no secret. She had even gone out in the past few days. Yesterday, a fire broke out no more than a thousand meters away from her.

Even so, she never saw them think of looking for her.

"Well, this is to be expected. After all, my brother is a man, and he is the only heir to the general's bloodline. I am just a sacrifice."

"Hiyori-sama, that's not the case. I think..."

"Okay, Kawamatsu, I know what you want to say. You don't have to blame yourself. Now think about it, you were powerless at the time. It's great that you and Kikunojo are still willing to stay by my side."

Originally they were all Oden's retainers, but after Oden's death, these people's insistence became divided. Except for those who died, most of the retainers were thinking about Momonosuke's situation, even Denjiro was no exception.

“Now they have finally met my dear brother. Since they are in such deep trouble, let them keep him company in Rabbit Bowl.

By the way, does Denjiro know about this?"

"not yet."

"Go and tell him. As for the rest, leave it as usual."

"Yes..."

As usual means maintaining the state of house arrest, which is also Kozuki Hiyori's attitude towards Denjiro. Ever since he urged Kozuki Hiyori to do something after Momonosuke appeared, a rift has appeared between the two.

Kawamatsu and Kikunosuke did not want to see this situation, but facts told them that the more they persuaded, the more likely it would be to get into trouble. Letting Hiyori Kozuki think about it on his own would be better after he calmed down.

At least she is just locking people up together now and not choosing to massacre them.

When Kawamatsu left here according to Kozuki Hiyori's order, he saw someone he didn't want to see very much.

Doflamingo was walking in the corridor of the palace with his still arrogant steps, and Kikunojo was leading the way for him.

"Isn't this He Song? You don't look very happy."

"I don't want to see you at all. What on earth do you talk to Lord Hiyori every day, you bastard?"

"咈咈咈咈咈, you got one thing wrong. The current situation is not entirely due to me influencing her. It's just that we have found a little bit of common ground.

Speaking of which, you should be happier, because you also know who has the final say in Wano Country. Even ordinary people are changing their opinions.

You have no military power above and have lost the support of the people below. You should all be grateful that you can live in this state.

The least valuable thing in this ocean is human life. If they choose to kill you all and replace you with a group of people to live here, all traces of you will disappear completely."

Doflamingo didn't care about Kawamatsu's expression at all. He now thought that he had figured out some of the operating trajectories of Wano Country. As long as he didn't cause any mess, he should be safe.

This is indeed the case. Kaido and Arceus have no interest in him. If he doesn't make any noise, they will hardly notice him. The most dangerous idea is like Quinn's idea of ​​beating him into the hospital and winning the bet.

Even if someone wanted to kill him, it wouldn't be Kawamatsu's turn. Besides, Doflamingo would not find it difficult to deal with one Kawamatsu.

Chapter 1338: Almost Getting Myself Involved

"Lord Babanuki, should we ask these two to stop?"

"Well... let me think about it..."

Even though he had been a warden for so many years, Babanuki had no experience with this kind of thing. It was clearly a disciplinary mechanism, but some people relied on their own physical strength to gain weight here. Unless they were gifted, Babanuki didn't know how to evaluate it.

He didn't know whether Luffy could gain weight, but Kidd had visibly expanded several sizes, forming a sharp contrast with the prisoners who were becoming increasingly thinner.

"Oh my god, am I really getting old?"

Babanuki really couldn't understand the thoughts of today's young people. Even the Hundred Beasts came step by step after entering the New World. Why is it that nowadays, newcomers want to challenge the Pirate Emperor one by one?

He had never seen anyone perform such a feat in prison after failing the challenge a few years ago. In the end, he could only say that the world has changed.

"So...what should we do?"

"It's okay. I remembered that someone will bring food to the Straw Hat Boy, so don't worry about him. As for Kidd... if he works too much, then those who work less can just go without food. They are all prisoners anyway, so don't worry too much."

Luffy can survive in this place all thanks to Hercule. If it weren't for Hercule, who knows what Kaido would have done after hitting him with that stick.

And Heluo's connections are also coming into play at this time.

Not long ago, Asen found Uta with Rotom. If it was Hero who replaced Luffy's brain, then Asen would act as Uta's agent and could provide some help to Uta. Making a phone call is a small matter among small matters.

But Ah Xian’s words gave Wuta a slight headache.

"Luffy is still as bold as ever. How did he get in?"

"Hey~"

Ah Xian spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know, and then told Wuta about what Heluo had asked him to do before.

"It... is really well prepared. It has worked so hard during this period. Give me your phone so I can contact Shanks."

Her status is not high enough to handle the matter of rescuing people, so she has to either find Tesoro or Shanks. In any case, she has to convey the message once. Since Shanks has formed an alliance with Kaido not long ago, of course she has to find this adoptive father.

"Shanks, Luffy's Heracross sent me a message, it said Luffy was captured on Onigashima."

"..."

The call was connected quickly, but Shanks seemed to be silenced by this sentence.

"Shanks? Shanks? Are you still listening?"

"I'm listening. Luffy is such a worry... I'll take care of this matter. Don't worry. Just be careful recently. The waves on the sea are getting stronger and stronger."

"Don't worry, I'm on Gulan Tezulo now. Tezulo has already controlled the ship back to the sea of ​​​​beasts. Nothing will go wrong."

Afterwards, Shanks and Uta asked each other about their recent situation and hung up the phone temporarily. However, Gulan Tesoro's situation was not as perfect as Uta said.

"Beautiful Sword·Swan Lake!"

On the streets of Gulan Tesoro, Cavendish completed his ballet, but after the waltz ended, many people fell to the ground, holding their necks.

"You guys are so naive that you actually want to attack me while I am in full glory. The security on the ship is so poor that you guys can get on board."

Shaking off the blood on the blade, Cavendish posed proudly.

"Tooth gun!"

But before he could say anything, he heard a sound of breaking air, and a sharp-toothed flying blade almost brushed Cavendish's ear.

"Hey!! What are you doing?! Are you trying to attack me too?!"

"How is that possible? Even though you are not as good as Uta, Xin Duoli, or the previous Brook, you can still make money for us. How could I cut down my own cash cow?"

"Who do you say is inferior to them? It's because they have no taste! The gorgeous young master is the most popular! You are just seeking revenge!"

A corpse slid down from above and fell next to Cavendish with a plop. Judging from the wounds on his body, they were the marks left by Foz-Fu's gun.

Although Foz F had killed the man who tried to sneak attack him, Cavendish still felt that Foz F had heard his complaint.

"Don't worry about those details. People who are a little confused can live longer. But what do these guys want to do?"

"They are just a bunch of pirates. What else can they want besides money? I'm afraid they want the funds on the ship."

Gulan Tesoro is a mixed crowd. Apart from the regular residents and staff, no one can tell which organization the daily tourists belong to. All Tesoro can do is to make sure those people are his own people.

"Naive, these guys are not like ordinary pirates. Pirates with such organizational ability would never be unknown... Found it."

Not long ago, this group sneaked into Gulan Tezulo disguised as tourists and launched an attack, but they underestimated the people who were still on the ship.

Ordinary family members like Stella who have no power to resist have now returned to the heart of the beasts. Those who remain on the ship are all people who have the ability to resist, including bodyguards and even artists.

After returning to his post, Foz F quickly led his cat team to eliminate the external enemies, and found a Den Den Mushi while searching the body.

Chapter 1339: Kaido's Probe

"Who would die in a place like this? You too, when this shit is over, I'm going to beat you up myself!"

"Hehe, then I am really looking forward to that day. However, you can only see all this in your dreams."

Fighting, war, Kaido's life is entangled with these words. Having been on the battlefield since childhood, he is no longer accustomed to normal life.

He would get drunk and go to see drama performances with great interest, but in Kaido's mind, these things were all preparations for war.

Kaido is not against failure, he has failed before, but now he firmly believes that he will not fail again.

For Yamato, Kaido became a mountain standing in front of her. If she couldn't cross this mountain, she would live in this shadow for the rest of her life. At the same time, she also firmly believed that she had the ability to cross this mountain.

"Tsk, just wait. If everything is fine, I'll leave so you don't have to think of anything bad."

Yamato's subconscious mind is telling her that it's always good to stay away from Kaido. Although Kaido can indeed protect her when facing danger, Kaido is the biggest danger when there is no danger.

"and many more."

Seeing Yamato walking towards the window without looking back, Kaido suddenly called her.

"what."

"Although you borrowed external forces, you still win the bet. Is there anything you want to do?"

"Well...how about you just stand still and not defend yourself, and let me beat the crap out of you?"

"What do you think?"

"It doesn't seem to work. Never mind. I'll think about it later."

He still jumped out of the window skillfully. This even became a custom among the beasts. People who entered through the door and exited through the window gradually developed this habit.

Kaido shook his head, but did not stop Yamato. Instead, he looked at the information that had just been sent.
