Alright, everyone, I'm leaving!" Luffy turned around and waved at the crowd again. His intuition told him that there were still some people watching him silently in the dark. Luffy's heart warmed. He immediately knew who was there.
Luffy waved his hand vigorously in a certain direction. His handsome face had a smile that looked like he was about to cry.
After bidding farewell, Luffy turned around. This time, he was really leaving.
A gust of wind blew from the rippling blue sea. Luffy's refreshing black hair fluttered in the wind. He picked up the wooden oar and rowed back. The small wooden boat slowly moved forward. In front of him was the endless sea full of adventure. Behind him were the sounds of his family saying goodbye.
Finally, Luffy couldn't hold it in any longer. A drop of transparent liquid flowed out from his eye socket.
While he was feeling sentimental, the sea in front of Luffy suddenly became restless. The seawater kept rolling outwards. With a bang, a huge monster emerged from the sea. The seawater that was sent flying by its huge body fell like rain on Luffy's straw hat.
Luffy looked up and saw a ten-meter-tall Neptune looking at him. Its sharp teeth were flying high from its mouth and its scarlet eyes were looking at its prey.
"Wow! That's the overlord of the East Sea! "
"The overlord of the East Sea is here. Luffy, run!"
"Luffy, run!"
The villagers of Fengche Village on the pier shouted at Luffy. Their voices were filled with fear.
"Yo, you finally couldn't hold it in anymore and came out?" Luffy greeted the Neptune in front of him. "Hey, we haven't seen each other for a long time. How many years has it been? Do you still remember me? "
"Roar!" Neptune roared at Luffy. Then, it twisted its body, opened its huge mouth, revealed its sharp teeth, and bit at Luffy's thin and weak body.
"Aiya, an animal will always be an animal. You really can't listen to human words. But I can't let you destroy my boat!" After saying that, Luffy jumped into the air. His height was just the same as Neptune's. Luffy swung his arm back forcefully. His arm was thrown more than ten meters away.
"Rubber gun!"
Luffy's arm instantly bounced back like a rubber band. Using this force, Luffy clenched his hand into a fist and punched Neptune's disgusting face.
With a bang, Neptune's huge body stopped moving. In the next second, under the surprised gaze of the people on the pier, Neptune fell to the sea, foaming at the mouth and rolling its eyes. It stirred up huge waves. Luffy's small wooden boat was tottering in the waves.
Luffy adjusted his posture in the air and landed steadily on the small wooden boat. He turned back and stared at Neptune, who was known as the overlord of the East Sea, and said sternly, "You better cherish your life! I'm leaving it with you. If you continue to stir up trouble at sea and bully my family, it won't be as simple as taking your life. I'll make you wish you were dead! "
The unconscious Neptune seemed to understand Luffy's words. Its huge body trembled, but no one knew whether it was agreeing or afraid.
The villagers of Fengche Village on the pier were also stunned by Luffy's feat of defeating the overlord of the East Sea. A group of people dressed as bandits who were hiding somewhere were also stunned.
Luffy turned back again. His smile occupied his entire face. "Well, we can't stay here for too long. Let's go!"
Luffy twisted his hands together and spun dozens of times. Then he walked to the stern of the boat and dipped his hands into the sea. "Rubber, rubber, propeller!"
In an instant, Luffy's small wooden boat was like a racing car with an engine. It raised its head and rushed into the endless sea.
"I will definitely become One Piece!"
Luffy's last words were clearly heard by the villagers on the pier.
On the other side of the island where Fengche Village was located, a woman in a white shirt and black pants stood on the edge of a cliff near the sea. She was a tough woman with a strong masculine aura just by looking at her appearance and figure.
Da Dan supported her fat body with a cigarette in her sausage mouth. She looked at the small wooden boat disappearing from the pier and said softly, "Luffy, you can do it!"
"Although I hate bandits, I like you guys!"
Thinking of what Luffy had said to her just now, Da Dan couldn't help but cry. "This won't do! I'm a bandit. How can I cry? Tears are a sign of weakness. How can I cry? Damn it, I can't stop! Luffy, you and Ace are the same. You two bad boys. How many tears do you want me to cry before you stop? Oh, my children, be careful on the road! "
Somewhere on the Grand Line, there was an oversized ship. Its shape was like a whale. The high main mast hung a pirate flag that no one in the world dared to underestimate – the Whitebeard's pirate flag.
Ace, who was resting on the mast, suddenly opened his eyes. He lifted the hat on his head and stood up. He walked to the railing of the ship and leaned on it. He looked at the turbulent sea with an inexplicable arc on his mouth. Ace said to himself, "Luffy, it's been two years. You also set off from Fengche Village, right?Hey, I'm looking forward to our meeting, my brother! "
The sea breeze continued to blow from the sea, taking away a lot of thoughts.
"Ah ah ah! It's said that I'll become One Piece, but what should I do next? It's so depressing! " Luffy became a rubber man because he ate the Devil Fruit with the power of the devil. No matter what kind of blow Luffy received, it was useless.
But for some reason, the Devil Fruit was hated by the sea. People who ate the Devil Fruit were landlubbers who couldn't swim for the rest of their lives. Therefore, the sea was also a terrible existence for these Devil Fruit users.
Just now, Luffy turned his hand into a propeller and put it in the sea to increase the speed of the boat. But because he was immersed in the sea for too long, Luffy's strength was taken away by the sea. He fainted on the wooden boat due to lack of strength.
Then, the small wooden boat that lost power drifted with the wind. After a while, Luffy woke up. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw the endless blue sky and knew that he had left Fengche Village where he had lived for many years.
With nothing to do, Luffy lay on the small wooden boat, crossed his legs, and stared at the beautiful blue sky. For some reason, he suddenly thought of becoming One Piece.
One Piece was the ultimate dream of all pirates and all men of the sea. Luffy was no exception. He didn't know why, but the moment he heard about One Piece's secret treasure – One Piece, his mood suddenly became uncontrollably restless. There was a voice in his heart telling Luffy, "Go to the sea, go to the sea, go to the sea, go to the sea, go to the treasure left behind by One Piece!"
This voice had been hidden in Luffy's heart and had never disappeared. From that day on, Luffy felt that becoming One Piece and getting the treasure left behind by the former One Piece, Roger, was his mission. It was his destiny.
But perhaps even Luffy didn't know that the moment he was saved by the red-haired Shanks from Neptune's mouth, his heart was already shaken by the pirates. He worshipped pirates and Shanks.
No matter who it was, everyone wanted to be like the person they worshipped.
At this moment, Luffy, who was staring blankly at the blue sky, didn't know that he had fallen into a terrible natural trap.
On the surface of the sea in front, a small whirlpool suddenly appeared. The whirlpool was getting bigger and bigger …
And Luffy's small wooden boat was close to the edge of the whirlpool. Without any power, the small wooden boat was like a fish on a chopping board in front of the strong natural force of the whirlpool.
"Eh? Why is the sky spinning? I'm so dizzy! "Luffy rubbed his eyes and realized that he was in a bad situation." No, it's a boat! "
Luffy got up and looked at the surface of the sea. He was shocked when he saw that there was a huge whirlpool on the sea. The small wooden boat was getting closer and closer to the center of the whirlpool. It looked like it would soon be swallowed by the sea.
"Damn! It can't be? This is my first time out at sea and I've encountered such an unfortunate thing? My luck is too damn good, right? " Luffy looked around. There was no island in a radius of dozens of feet. It was just a vast sea. "Damn it, I can't swim! If I knew earlier, I wouldn't have eaten that feces flavored devil fruit. Damn it! "
In this unfavorable environment, Luffy decided to save himself. He turned around and looked at the wooden boat with little cargo. Considering the speed of the wooden boat, Luffy didn't put too many things on the boat. There were only some fruits and dried meat with a relatively long shelf life and a sturdy wooden barrel filled with sweet wine.
"Damn it, I'm a foodie! There's nothing but food! "Seeing his small wooden boat getting closer and closer to the center of the whirlpool, Luffy had a headache." What should I do? What should I do?Wine barrel? Wine barrel! Right! There's a way! "
Luffy walked to the wooden barrel and opened the lid. Looking at the fragrant wine inside, Luffy sniffed it with his nose. Then, he made up his mind and poured all the wine into the sea. After that, he threw the wooden barrel high up into the sky.
"Whoosh!" Luffy jumped into the wooden barrel in the air with the lid. Because of the sudden extra weight of a person in the empty barrel, the wooden barrel dropped instantly. Luffy held the lid in his mouth. "Rubber, rubber, rocket launcher!"
Luffy swung his hands back until they reached the limit. He pulled his hands back and blasted the small wooden boat below. With the help of the reaction force, Luffy flew away with the wooden barrel and avoided the danger of being swallowed by the sea. "Don't sink into the sea!" Luffy prayed in a low voice. Then he got into the wooden barrel and covered the barrel tightly with the lid.
The wooden barrel was made very firmly. When it fell on the sea, it did not shatter because of the excessive force, nor did it sink into the sea because of Luffy. The wooden barrel floated on the sea and the young pirate who was determined to become One Piece drifted away with the waves.
On a small island on the Grand Line, there was a Marine stationed on the island.
Under a shady tree, an old man with white hair wearing a Marine uniform was lying on a recliner and sleeping. His snores were louder than thunder.
"Report!" A strong Marine soldier came to the recliner and gave a standard military salute.
"What's the matter? Speak! "Kap woke up in an instant, rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up.
"Vice-Admiral Kap, someone sent you a letter." The Marine soldier handed the letter in his hand to Kap.
Garp took the letter and scratched his head. He wondered who would be so bored as to use such an outdated method to send a letter. He could have just contacted Den Den Mushi.
Kap opened the letter. After reading the contents, his face instantly turned blue. Kap gritted his teeth and said to the Marine soldier in front of him: "Inform all the soldiers, we will set sail in an hour!"
"Yes!" Seeing the terrible face of the Vice-Admiral, the Marine soldier didn't want to stay here for even a second. He didn't want to taste the love of Vice-Admiral Kap's iron fist.
After the Marine soldier left, the angry Kap roared at the sky: "Luffy! You bastard, you really want to be a pirate! I must catch you and beat you until your grandfather can't recognize you! Ahhh! "
