Early in the morning of the next day, the Sonny, which had just docked amidst anxiety and curiosity, and the members of the Flying Fish Knights aboard the Sonny, had not had time to see clearly the internal situation of the Nine Snakes Daughter Kingdom. After their Lady Queen Anne and the long-lost captain of the ship, they were forced to set sail again under the farewell of those women.
"Luffy!"
"Yeah~!"
"Luffy-sama!"
"Goodbye!"
“Have a nice trip~”
"Remember to miss us~!"
"Luffy-sama!!"
“Remember to come back often when you have time!”
"Woo~!"
"Luffy-sama!"
"..."
At the dock of Nine Snake Island, a large group of old and young people from the Amazon tribe of the daughter country were waving vigorously and screaming and cheering goodbye to Luffy on the Sonny.
Obviously, they are very, very reluctant to let go of Luffy, a man who is very strange to them, but very fun and interesting, because they haven't had enough fun with each other yet!
"Um!"
"thank you all!"
"Thank you for taking care of me!"
"Next time, I will bring my companions here as guests, and treat you to the most delicious meal made by Sanji!!"
At the stern of the Sonny, Luffy was hanging there by the cable, making his arms very long, and then he waved hard while shouting a response to the people on the dock who were seeing him off from the Daughters' Kingdom.
"..."
(°ー°〃)
"Luffy, are you so popular here?"
(ಠ~ಠ)
Seeing that those people were only saying goodbye to Luffy, and all they were shouting was Luffy's name, Annie, who was also standing at the stern of the boat, was naturally a little unhappy, so much so that she had to keep a dark face and even Even if you raise your hand and wave it, you won't be rewarded.
Of course, there's not a lot of unhappiness, just a little bit. She won't mind the little things like others not calling her Queen Anne's name!
o(´^｀)oHmph!
(…)
(●￣㉨￣●)
"ah?"
"I don't know either!"
"Actually, at the beginning, before you came, I was chased by them for two full days!"
"At that time, I was still running around the city, and they put me in a cage and looked at me like a monkey..."
"Hahaha!"
With that said, as the Sonny got further and further away, as the ship drove out of the water gate of Kuji Island and could no longer see the people inside, Luffy jumped off the cable at the stern of the ship, and then He rubbed the back of his head and giggled loudly as he recalled.
"strangeness!"
(ー`´ー)
"Then why do they like you so much now?"
(｡•ˇ‸ˇ•｡)
"Well..."
"Maybe it's because I saved Margaret, Alfreda, and Stobby, and then I played with them last night?"
"It must be like that!"
"Hahaha~♪"
As he said that, he thought of the singing and dancing celebration last night after Anne left, and the fun things that happened when people from the daughter country charged tickets and lined up to come in and touch and study the body structure of her body. He chuckled heartlessly again.
"..."
(๑վ‸վ๑)
"I always feel like things are a little weird..."
(￢д￢.)
Annie was invited to leave by the Snake Sister very early last night, so she didn't know what happened afterwards.
"!!"
"Wow!!"
"This is a windless zone, Annie. Why does the sail of our Sonny inflate on its own even though there is no wind? Have you done anything to the Sonny?"
"What's going on?!"
At this time, Luffy, as the captain, finally discovered that the Sonny seemed a little different from before.
I don’t know what happened to the sail. It was obviously in a calm sea, but there was always a strange wind spinning and blowing hard behind it, so that the sail was always bulging at full capacity, and the original The ship, which was supposed to be extremely slow, became very fast and light, as if it was flying on the sea. It sailed two nautical miles away and was about to pass the naval ship parked three nautical miles away in front of it.
If they could keep moving at this weird speed, even without using the navy's exclusive whirlpool water flow, their Sonny could successfully reach Impel City within three to four days.
"Wow~!"
"Awesome, hahaha!"
"This is really too fast. Franky and the others will be surprised when they see it when they come back!"
He directly stretched his arms to touch the back of the sail. After discovering that there was indeed a strange wind there, and that it would not disperse no matter how much he stirred it, Luffy laughed excitedly again.
"never mind!"
ε=(´ο｀*)))Alas
"I don't care about you!"
(´・∧・｀)
"I'm going to take a rest first. You made such a fuss last night, and sister She Ji pulled me up early this morning. Now I'm almost sleepy to death."
٩(๑´0`๑)۶ah oh~
"Go and command their idiot crew yourself!"
ヾ(⌒∇⌒*)Goodbye~♪
When the Sonny passed by the navy ship at an extremely fast speed, and when she saw the group of petrified crew members on the navy ship and the stone statue of the lieutenant general who was still standing on the edge of the ship with an angry sword, Anne began to He curled his lips, turned around and walked to the girls' room on the ship.
"OK!"
"Do not worry!"
The Sonny is Luffy's ship, and he certainly knows how to control and direct it, so he doesn't care at all about Annie leaving.
"Dibaru!"
"And Xiaoba!"
"Listen to my order: full sail, full speed to the west, target impel city, full speed ahead!!!"
Seeing that only one sail of the ship had fallen, Luffy couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied. Then, after thinking about it, he immediately gave an order to Dibaru and Xiaohachi who were standing aside, asking them to cooperate with the other ships. The crew worked together to increase the speed of the ketch.
Because, he couldn't wait to rush to Impel Down City as soon as possible, and then rescue his brother, Portcas D. Ace, from that terrible prison.
They must be faster, faster, as fast as possible, otherwise, if the navy escorts the other party to Marineland or other places, it will be difficult for him to easily find the other party.
"!?"
"What?!"
"Where did you say you were going?"
"!!"
"Push, push the city?!"
"Luffy, did we hear you correctly?"
"You must have said it wrong, right?"
However, Dibaru and Hachi, who were just about to run and were ordered to take action, froze their bodies when they heard the last words shouted by Luffy, and then slowly turned their heads, With his eyes wide open and his mouth wide open, he stared at Luffy with a look of disbelief as if he had seen a ghost.
"Huh?"
"Didn't Anne tell you?"
Seeing the dull expressions of the two of them and the members of the Flying Fish Knights around them, Luffy was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly grinned nonchalantly.
"Okay, then I'll tell you the same thing now!"
"That's right!"
"This time, we really don't plan to look for other lost friends first, but we plan to go to Impel Down City first to save an important person!"
Grinning, Luffy said seriously what was extremely terrifying to Hachi, Dibaru and the others.
"Set off!"
"Full speed ahead!!!"
Ha ha ha ha……
With bursts of hearty laughter, and before Dibaru and Hachi who were petrified could take action, Luffy stretched out his arm without authorization and untied the cable tied to the other sail. Let the other sail open directly and be blown up by the wind.
Immediately afterwards, under the influence of the two sails, the speed of the Sonny suddenly doubled, and like an angry flying fish, it suddenly jumped out towards the sea ahead.
"!!"
"Wow!!!"
"No!!"
"Luffy! Stop it!!"
"We don't want to go to Impel Down, we want to go home!!"
"Me, me too!!"
"Help!!!"
"Kemi!"
"Come out quickly, let's go to the sea and get out of here!!!"
"Who will save us..."
Not long after, as the Sonny moved forward rapidly, bursts of howling like ghosts and wolves were heard on the ship.
The members of the Flying Fish Knights and the octopus man Xiaoba and others who didn't know what was going on and were not told anything obviously didn't think it was a good idea to go to Impel Down City. Therefore, they were now howling in panic, and they all just wanted to go quickly. Stay away from the Sunny, which is about to sail to the point of no return, and refuse to follow Luffy to that terrible place in Impel Down to surrender yourself to the trap.
…
At this time, on the heights of Nine Snake Island, Empress Boya Hancock was standing here with Granny New and her two sisters, watching Luffy and Annie leave quickly on the Sunny.
"Well……"
"The boat is really fast!"
"Incredible..."
"In this way, even if they don't use the water flow of the Maelstrom and the Gate of Justice, even if they take a long detour, they should be able to successfully reach Impel Down City in three to four days!"
After staring at the Sonny for a while, until the sails of the other party completely disappeared under the sea level on the horizon, Granny New, who was holding a snake staff, sighed helplessly.
"..."
The empress standing aside did not make any move.
She just squinted her eyes slightly and said nothing, staring with a resentful expression in the direction in which the two-masted schooner "Sunny" left and disappeared completely.
"cough!"
"Important City..."
"Even if ordinary pirates want to go to that terrifying prison, the only way is to be arrested. But they are lucky enough to drive there so recklessly. Even with that little girl here, I'm afraid the result will not be the same. Wouldn’t it be great?”
Although Granny New knew that the 'naughty child' Annie was very strong, so powerful that she could escape unscathed after attacking the Celestial Dragons and defeating the admiral and the science force, but...
Even then, she didn't know much about the little girl's true strength, so she still wasn't optimistic about the other party and Luffy heading towards Impel Down City with a boatload of ordinary sailors and planning to raid the prison. Plan to save lives.
"..."
"Granny New, could you please help me take care of me while I'm away from the island?"
"If you can't make a decision until I come back, you can discuss it with Sonia and Mary."
After finishing the explanation and taking one last look at the direction in which the Sonny disappeared, the empress turned around and prepared to leave this high platform.
"I know."
"only……"
"Sheji, have you really decided?"
Seeing the empress's firm steps, Granny Newu hurriedly asked again.
"Yes."
"Luffy and Annie went to Impel Down City. Life or death was uncertain. There was not much I could do to help him. They could only respond to the Navy's call and pretend to go with the Navy to fight against Whitebeard. They would break into the Navy and wait for an opportunity to provide them with information or Other help is the only way I can think of."
"Besides, by responding to the Navy's call, we can also keep the title of Shichibukai and our country. This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, isn't it?"
The empress stopped, but did not look back. She just pretended to be relaxed and answered Granny New's question.
"Too!"
"This is indeed a good idea, but when the time comes, how are you going to act?"
Although this matter had just been discussed and decided, Granny New was still a little worried when the matter came to an end.
"There will always be a way."
"Moreover……"
"Even if I do something wrong by then, everyone in the navy will definitely forgive me. Granny New, do you think I am right?"
Suddenly, the empress turned around and winked at Granny New and her two younger sisters.
"elder sister!"
"sister!"
"Sheji..."
Although they were already very familiar with her, the three of them were still instantly charmed by the empress's peerless face that looked back with a smile and her inexplicable charm.
Obviously, this is one of the empress' methods.
Just like she petrified everyone on the navy's battleship before, her beautiful appearance was her confidence and most powerful weapon.
"!!"
After a while, Granny New was the first to come back to her senses and frowned, but in the end she didn't say much.
"So!"
"I'm about to leave too, taking a navy ship."
"It just so happens that Anne said that she also petrified the lieutenant general when she came. That would save me a lot of trouble!"
"Hee~♡"
"I will not be able to remove Annie's magical petrification. It seems that I can only continue to wrong the lieutenant general and continue to be a stone statue."
After saying this with gloating, the empress, twisting her waist, gradually disappeared from the sight of the three of them.
Now there are no lieutenant generals on the navy's warships. What's left is just a bunch of stone statues. And later, the empress only needs to remove the group of soldiers who were petrified by her.
Without the command of Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel, if it was just a group of soldiers, it would definitely be much easier to control her.
"well……"
"I hope everything goes well for you!"
Granny New sighed, then slowly turned around again and looked again in the direction where the Sonny disappeared just now.
As for what will happen in a few days, she can't imagine now, but she will remember to pay attention to the various newspapers delivered by the carrier pigeon.
"..."
"..."
Boya Sandasonia and Boya Marigorud were not allowed to follow, so at this time, they could only watch their sister with extremely worried eyes as she walked down the steps step by step, towards the still-looking girl. Walk to the pier which is packed with people.
