"He needs a thorough beating and a good lesson!"
Luffy said in a serious tone, but his eyes twinkled meaningfully. After a moment of thought, he added, "And don't run around anymore in just your underwear. Only I am allowed to see you, no one else."
Only I am allowed to see you, no one else is permitted! That was how overbearing this man was. Of course, Luffy already had a plan for those who had interacted with Nami before. He would gather more crewmates and make sure all those men stayed away! Especially Sanji, either he wouldn't let him join, or he would pacify him with his own hands! Otherwise, if Sanji kept staring blankly every day, wouldn't Luffy be annoyed to death?
As for that kid with the middle part… The others could still be forgiven, but this guy absolutely had to die!
Nami's face went white, she was furious. She immediately grabbed Luffy's ear and demanded money, "First, give me ten million Berries!"
"No way," Luffy shook his head resolutely. "From now on, I will manage the household money!" Luffy was a man of principles, he would never let Nami manage the money, afraid he wouldn't be able to eat meat anymore.
"What did you just say?!"
"I said I'll manage the money! Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you." Luffy's eyes flashed. He looked at the furious Nami, then slowly added, "Not just the money, but you, and even your sister Nojiko, I'll manage all of you!"
Smart villagers, that's all nonsense. Was it not because Nojiko was one of the beautiful women in the story? By inviting her to join, Zack felt he would definitely attract good fortune! Anyway, the Arlong crew needed to be taken care of too. At that time, Nami would definitely be touched, and so would Nojiko. This was a good thing, killing two birds with one stone, so why not do it?
"What?!" Nami's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief. She had never met a person this thick-skinned! Managing the money was one thing, but he even wanted to manage her sister? This guy was going too far!
Seeing this greedy and selfish man, Nami really couldn't take it anymore. She pounced on Luffy, opening her small red mouth and threatening, "I'm going to bite you to death!"
"Alright, alright… stop messing around. We need to get back to serious business!"
After the long ruckus, Luffy casually took advantage of the situation, still holding the angry Nami in his embrace.
"Let me show you something fun…"
The moment he finished speaking, Luffy pushed off his feet, jumped, and disappeared.
Nami gasped in shock. The two of them seemed to have vanished from the world. The scenery around them slowed down in an instant, as if a pause button had been pressed!
"Teleportation!"
Not even a second had passed. Nami had just blinked, and the scenery around her had completely changed. They were already floating in midair, and below them lay the Marine branch building.
"Nami, we've arrived." Luffy smiled as he spoke to Nami, who was clinging tightly to him.
To be honest, the figures of the women in Pirate King were far more exaggerated than ordinary people, their bodies were exceptionally good. Luffy couldn't even imagine how stunning Nami would look in another two years. If she were rated with playing cards, wouldn't she be a Jack?
Before setting sail, Zack had contemplated the training methods of the Marine's Six Styles from his memories in his previous life. With his "heaven-defying comprehension," he easily mastered the Six King Gun from the combined Six Styles, as well as Life Return and other techniques. What was even more impressive, he had also developed a more advanced fighting style from the Six Styles, giving him a physical power even stronger than the CP9. To be honest, he was even more terrifying than the future Lucci. He started from Level 0 of Marine martial arts and could develop it himself. His potential was even greater than that martial arts fanatic in CP0.
Coupled with Teleportation and Moonwalk, he could leap a hundred meters in an instant and stay in midair for a long time.
"What? We're in the sky?" Nami came to her senses, she started to look around. My goodness, her eyes widened in surprise, her face full of astonishment. She looked all around, an expression of disbelief on her face.
"This… this isn't a dream, is it?"
Then, her mouth fell open in shock. She found herself floating above the Marine base, nearly a hundred meters high!
The shock in her heart was truly indescribable. She stared at Luffy with wide eyes, in disbelief. This man, how mysterious and powerful was he! In a flash, he could appear a hundred meters away and remain motionless in the air. This was too bizarre!
She lowered her head, looking at the base below. It was empty, with no one there. Except for one person who was tied to a cross in the center, with short green hair, scorched by the sun, and covered in blood.
"Found him!"
That person was: Roronoa Zoro!
To be honest, Zack originally only wanted to recruit female crewmates. But after reading Pirate King, he thought, these helpers can't be missing! Right! He couldn't always let his women fight every battle! So, Zack pondered for a moment and decided to reunite the Straw Hat Crew! However, for convenience, he planned to put them on another ship!
As if sensing something, Zoro suddenly looked up, his eyes widening like copper bells, "That guy…"
"Swish—!"
As Zoro's pupils constricted, Luffy, while carrying Nami, jumped, instantly turning into an afterimage. Using his Teleportation ability, he appeared in front of Zoro and Nami.
"Too fast!" Zoro was completely stunned. He stared at Luffy in disbelief, his heart pounding. This guy's aura… was too strong!
"Hey, who are you?"
Luffy said calmly, "My name is Monkey D. Luffy… I've come to untie you. Be my companion!"
"What? What did you just say?"
"I'm looking for companions to be pirates."
"I refuse!" Zoro narrowed his eyes and said angrily, "You want me to willingly become your subordinate? Just save it!"
"What's so bad about being a pirate?" Luffy countered.
