It was another peaceful morning. The black-haired boy was woken up by his biological clock. He opened his eyes and stared at the unfamiliar ceiling, breathing in the hazy morning air.
The hand rests in a soft and tender position, and you can feel the pudding-like softness with gentle force. Turning your head sideways, you can see the girl's short citrus-colored hair, and the white shoulder strap hanging on her delicate shoulders.
Black eyes stared at such a stunning scenery, a strong sense of satisfaction filled the boy's chest, and an impulse gradually emerged deep in his heart - he wanted to kiss her cheek.
So we did it.
He brushed his lips against the girl's cheek like a dragonfly, "Good morning, today will be a good day."
After doing all this, he felt a huge sense of peace in his heart. He began to take off his pajamas and put on a handsome combat uniform.
The clothes blocked his sight, so he didn't notice that the girl opened her eyes and glanced at her distinct abdominal muscles with the corner of her eyes.
This is another price - Nami thought to herself.
Dressed neatly, Luffy stepped over Nami, picked up the long sword leaning on the door, hung the holster behind his waist, and opened the door.
The aroma of food came continuously from the kitchen. Someone got up earlier than him, and there was already a lot of food on the table.
Hearing another collision, Uta, wearing a loose white dress and slippers, carefully closed the door.
"Good morning Luffy."
"Good morning Uta, did you sleep well last night?" Luffy pulled out his chair and asked.
"Hmm..." Uta thought about the thrills last night and had a strange feeling in his heart. You can't tell Luffy this, as he will be considered a strange girl.
She just smiled and nodded.
After a while, Nami and Nokigao also changed into casual clothes and went out to eat.
"I slept so soundly last night..." Nuo Qigao scratched her head, feeling that she slept too comfortably last night and couldn't hear any movement.
After finishing breakfast, Bellmeier took out the long-barreled musket hanging on the wall, which was distributed when she was in the navy.
"You guys, listen up. If you find a pirate, run to me. Do you understand?"
Bellmere, who was wearing a ponytail, checked the gun to make sure it was still usable and told the children.
"Just a third-rate pirate, no big deal." Uta said, holding a piece of pancake.
She is the most relaxed one among the group and has no idea what third-rate pirates have to be afraid of.
These pirates who attack villages and towns are third-rate pirates, and Shanks can easily defeat them.
I've seen this happen a lot.
"Yeah, there's nothing to be afraid of. There are so many marines, and I'll help too." Luffy drank the milk.
"What are you kiddos talking about? If children are allowed to go to the battlefield, what will the adults do?"
Bellmere loaded a particle bullet into his gun and said to the brats with a smile.
It is the bounden duty of adults to protect children. Although Luffy is very strong judging from training, she will not allow these children to go to the battlefield.
"Maybe the pirates won't come. They should be scared and run away when they see the navy." Nozhigao said, "We have a commodore here!"
"That's right, brigadier general is a very powerful level." Bellemere said.
"Ordinary sailors cannot defeat a colonel head-on."
"Those people are as strong as monsters..."
Before the pirates come, life still has to go on. Everyone in Cocoa West Village should do whatever they want. They can't hear the possibility of the pirates coming back and just lose their jobs. That way they won't be able to survive.
The villagers worked in anxiety.
Uta took a camera to record the villagers when they encountered pirates. She recorded these life details so that she could write them into a song when she was inspired.
"Uta needs to use less of his power in front of outsiders," Luffy said.
"Eh-" Uta looked at him doubtfully.
"The ability of an esper needs to be hidden, and the unknown can protect oneself. Once it is exposed, it is hard to say what will happen to it," Luffy said.
Uta's ability is the power to destroy the world, and has a very strong first sight kill, but on the other hand, once the information is leaked, Uta only needs a pair of earplugs, and Uta can only be at the mercy of others.
Nowadays, in front of the navy, it is better for Uta to use less ability.
"Don't say that you are an ability user casually anymore, I will protect you."
"Um……"
A bright smile appeared on Uta's face.
Luffy walked towards Commodore Pudding Pudding's position and saw him looking at the sea level with a telescope, a solemn look on his face.
"Commodore, we have discovered that the pirate ship has entered the artillery range. Do you want to start the artillery attack?"
The soldiers reported to Brigadier General Pudding Pudding that they had never seen such a large pirate ship.
"Load the bombs and disperse the residents!" Pudding Pudding waved his hand.
Along with the long cry of the eagle, the soldiers whistled to inform the residents of the island that the pirates were coming.
After a short period of chaos, the residents hid in their houses. They were informed of the incident by the navy last night, and they were not panicked at this time.
Bellemeier, who was finishing sorting the ingredients and preparing lunch, raised her head and looked towards the village. Her house was outside the village, a very remote place.
Even here the characteristic naval whistle can be heard.
"The pirates are coming, Nokigao, call Nami and the others to come and take shelter!" Bellemere nervously held the long-barreled musket, "I want to fight!"
A trace of sweat dripped down.
A scene from the past appeared subconsciously before her eyes: countless navy fell like wheat on the battlefield.
The navy cannot lose. If it loses, no one will come to guard civilians.
"Bellemere, it's too dangerous!" Noqigao grabbed her arm and looked at her worriedly.
You are no longer a navy, so you don’t have to work so hard.
"Don't worry, mother is very strong..." Bellemere said softly.
Nami was working in the orange grove, and she also heard such a whistle. Although she didn't understand what it meant, it was definitely not a good thing.
So she put down the fruit basket and ran to the village.
At this time, Luffy and the others should go to the beach to practice, as they always do.
"Your Highness Luffy, please stay away!" Pudding Pudding turned around and saw Luffy, and immediately said nervously.
Such a huge ship is not an ordinary pirate ship.
"What do you say, I will fight." Luffy said.
"My grandfather once said that I want to be a marshal of the navy. A marshal will not retreat when he sees pirates!"
"But this place will become a battlefield, which is very dangerous!" Pudding Pudding advised.
Of course he knew that Garp's grandson was very strong, but when the cannonball hit, who could guarantee that there would be no accidents.
"Commodore, the pirates have no tendency to slow down. They are going to hit us directly and hit the shore!"
Soldier reports.
"Are they crazy? Such a dangerous operation..." Pudding Pudding frowned.
"fire!"
He said fiercely, "Sink them!"
The navy fired the black cannonballs.
These are the shells that were transported from the warship last night.
…
"Captain, no ships were found on the shore." A fishman jumped onto the ship from the sea and reported to the blue-skinned fishman sitting on the seat.
"How strange. Don't the people on this island use ships to trade?"
Aaron touched his chin.
I saw black cannonballs falling from the sky and bombarding both sides of the ship.
Another shell hit the ship.
The octopus man on the side just stood on the bow of the ship coolly with his arms folded.
The sword flashed in an instant, directly cutting the fired cannonball into pieces.
"It's a naval cannonball..." Aaron sniffed the smoke.
"Shark hahaha, it seems that the navy in this area has a very strong temperament. It's strange that they set up an ambush and didn't directly cause trouble for us at sea..."
Aaron said to his subordinates calmly.
"Crash it at full speed."
The fishman spoke fiercely, showing a bloodthirsty smile.
"I guess it would be fun to kill all the marines in front of the villagers, with their horrified expressions."
"Brigadier, they're coming!"
There was no need for navy reports anymore, he could see the pirate ship with his naked eyes. It was a huge pirate ship with a jagged nose on the bow.
Boom——
Some sailors did not stand still and sat directly on the ground.
The pirate ship hit the shore directly, like an earthquake, and everyone could feel the sound.
The pirates, however, fell down one after another like nothing happened, and they walked leisurely on the khaki road.
The leaders are the cadres.
One by one, the marines stood out from the grass and pointed their guns at the pirates.
They were much more numerous than the pirates, hundreds of them.
The number of pirates was smaller than the navy imagined. They originally thought there were more than fifty, but only about thirty came off the ship.
Brigadier Pudding Pudding had a smile on his face, the advantage was in my favor.
These stupid pirates originally thought that the other side would also fire cannonballs, and both sides launched a round of artillery fire.
Unexpectedly, they had no such plan at all.
There is no need to persuade His Highness Luffy to leave.
Pudding Pudding thought of this and stood up with a smile on his face, the cloak of justice on his body dancing in the wind.
"Hey, hey - are your navy so impolite? You went so far as to bombard us. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to sit down together and talk about business?"
Aaron said cheerfully that he saw the shawl on Pudding Pudding, and he was still a brigadier general.
"Stop joking, you pirates, I've been eyeing you for a long time."
Pudding Pudding said righteously. He put his hand on the saber on his waist. These pirates were equipped with pretty good equipment. They all carried sabers and were very powerful.
The navy squatted down in rows and pointed their muskets at the pirates, which looked very visually shocking.
Luffy put his hand on the sword and was about to draw it when the woman's hand covered his mouth. At the same time, his body fell backward and hit the inflatable cushion of the woman behind him.
It's Bellemere.
She was accompanied by Nami and others.
Bellemare put his finger sternly to his lips and made a still gesture.
"What are you still doing here? This is a place only adults can come to. Come with me!"
There was sweat on Bellemere's neck. She came here by running, and Luffy could hear the thumping of her heart.
"So, there's no need to talk? Brigadier." Aaron said boringly.
"Then I have to ask you to die, and I will talk to someone else." He said.
Pudding Pudding snorted and took out the long knife from his waist.
With a clang, the blade was pulled out, and blood spattered on the face of the naval soldier in the back row.
A fishman stood in front of Pudding Pudding, arms crossed.
Pudding Pudding's hand holding the sword was unable to hold it as soon as he pulled it out.
The sword fell to the ground with a clang, and a bloody hole appeared on his shoulder.
Already pierced.
Bellemeier looked at this scene in stunned silence. He couldn't understand what happened so quickly...
She just lowered her head and said a few words, and the situation was reversed.
"Don't move!" The marines pointed their guns at the fishmen nervously.
This fishman's mouth was pouted and very long. He was calmly surrounded by navy soldiers.
"Too weak. I've defeated even the Vice Admiral."
The fishman said in a disdainful tone.
"How is it possible that the Lieutenant General was defeated by a guy like you?"
Pudding put his hand on his shoulder. He could see clearly that this guy came over at an unimaginable speed and spat at him.
The saliva spit out of that long mouth had incredible penetrating power and directly penetrated his shoulder.
I can't use any strength...
The strength gap between the two sides is too big.
It's over, Master Luffy and the residents of the village...
"That was a Vice Admiral named Kadaru. I remember it very clearly. Because that guy Tiger was so merciful, he was let go in the end. What the hell, will humans be merciful to fish people?"
The long-mouthed fish man said irritably.
Luffy pushed away Bellemel's arm, and Bellemel felt the boy's strength, which was surprisingly strong.
"Bellemere just needs to protect Nami and the others. Let me solve all this. If this continues, the timing of the appearance will be wrong."
Luffy said.
He pulled out the musket from his waist and pointed it at the long-mouthed fish man.
Get rid of this guy first.
Being spat on is just disgusting.
The bullets covered by the armor are unusually fast and have extremely strong penetrating power.
There was a bang.
A line of fire flew out.
Pudding Pudding saw that the head of the chattering fish man in front of him was shifting.
The fishman stopped chattering, his body was weak and he knelt in front of Pudding Pudding with an extra hole in his head.
A huge bullet hole went directly through it, and you could clearly see the trees on the opposite side.
Luffy turned his gun and shot at the leader, Aaron.
Long red lines of fire flew out.
Aaron's abdomen was blasted with several holes.
Too fast to handle.
Octopus and another fishman cadre hurriedly stood in front of Aaron.
"How could there be such a powerful bullet? Fortunately, it was just a penetrating wound..."
Aaron lowered his head and looked at his abdomen, which was completely penetrated by the bullet. It seemed that there was no bleeding due to the high temperature.
Penetrating bullets, on the other hand, do not stay in the human body and cause more damage.
"Be careful not to be aimed at the head." Aaron shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, several fishmen's heads were shot.
Led by Luffy, the marines also started firing a salvo.
But most of their bullets got stuck in the fishmen's skin or muscles, and the damage caused was not outstanding.
"Only that kid's gun is weird!" Aaron said while covering his abdomen.
Then he saw Luffy throw away the musket in his hand, grabbed the weapon of the soldier next to him and shot him.
Accompanied by exaggerated sound effects, half of a pirate next to Aaron was beaten into blood mist.
besides……
