At the sea level in the distance, a red sun is gradually crawling out from under the horizon.
At this time, the navy headquarters, Marinefando, was illuminated red. This huge naval fortress, one of the three city nodes within the scope of the maelstrom, has so far successfully gathered a hundred thousand fully equipped naval forces. Elite, and they are all general-level officers wearing white robes of justice.
Now, only a few hours remain before the public execution of Portcas D. Ace.
In order to deal with the attack that will definitely come from the Whitebeard Pirates, or in other words, in order to deal with the super war that will definitely happen, Marshal Sengoku of the Navy has gathered 100,000 elites here at the headquarters to wait for work, as well as three generals. , fourteen lieutenant generals, several major generals, and a group of members of the Shichibukai under the King are sitting in charge. The lineup is not unsplendid, and the preparations are not insufficient!
Similarly, the Whitebeard Pirates and its forty-three pirate groups, a total of dozens of ships transferred back from the New World, a large number of powerful pirates, and the rock-solid family pirate team also began to work in the Navy The headquarters appears around the sea area of Marinevando, announcing its presence from time to time and touching the already tense heartstrings of the navy.
But fortunately, although the storm is almost brewing now, there is still a little time before it really breaks out. Therefore, the two sides are relatively restrained for the time being and have not really fought without hesitation, even if Both sides actually know that sooner or later they will fight each other.
This is just a temporary calm. What is coming will eventually come, just like the rising sun will eventually rise to the sky. No one can stop it.
Therefore, no matter how calm things are now, everyone knows that a storm of the century that will affect the whole world is about to blow up, and the outcome is still unknown.
"..."
At this time, when the morning light gradually shone on the lawn deck of the Sonny, and when most of the crew finally began to return to their respective posts and get busy, Luffy was already standing on the dewy deck lawn. , holding the guardrail along the ship's edge and looking in the direction of the Navy Headquarters for a long time.
Even though he couldn't see anything about the island where the navy headquarters was located, not even its outline, he still stubbornly stared in that direction, and his hands holding the guardrail, his nails It has been pinched into the wood unconsciously.
The time was getting closer and closer, and he was getting more and more nervous and irritable. He wished he could fly to Marineland now!
but……
Luffy himself actually knew that it wasn't possible now, the time hadn't come yet, he had to wait, wait a little longer!
"Luffy!"
٩(ŏ﹏ŏ、)۶
"Didn't you say it would be until noon?"
(°ー°〃)
"It's only morning now. Why are you banging on the door so early and asking people to get up?"
(°~°〃)
Looking at the red sun in the sky, she felt that it was only about seven o'clock in the morning at most. Thinking that she was woken up at six o'clock by the guy in front of her who had become a little nervous, banging on the door, Annie felt a little dissatisfied. He complained softly.
If she didn't know that the other person was in a bad mood, or if she didn't know that the other person was very nervous and anxious now, I'm afraid she wouldn't just complain a few words.
perhaps……
Would she tie the opponent's ankles with a cable, throw the opponent directly into the sea, and then let the speeding Sunny drag him away?
(…)
(●￣(ｴ)￣●)
"..."
"Annie..."
"do you know?"
However, Luffy ignored Annie's complaints and just began to speak slowly:
"When I was a child, my grandfather was very angry for a time after he found out about my ambition to become a pirate. However, in the end he sent me to the care of that evil and selfish old woman, Aunt Kali. It was also from that time that I met Ace..."
"In the beginning, actually, that guy Ace didn't like me very much..."
Regardless of whether the naughty kid on the side was listening carefully or not, Luffy just remembered and talked to himself, and at the same time, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.
At that time, he and Ace ran around in the mountains, forests and fields all day long, and also liked to fight with each other to improve their fighting abilities, laying the foundation for becoming a powerful pirate now. Although, Luffy never had it at that time. Beat Ace and Sabo?
He still remembered that they did everything together at that time. They played together, ate together, fought together, and went to poke hornets' nests together. They also went to peek at the beautiful girls in the village taking a bath, and then were raped by the old woman Aunt Kali. After being caught, there was an inexplicable beating and so on.
After all these years, Luffy still didn't think there was anything wrong with watching girls take a bath, let alone why he got beaten.
Anyway, just like when he looked at the slave pattern on Hancock's back on the Nine Snake Island before, the girl's body was smoother, weaker, rounder and whiter than the boy's. Apart from that, there doesn’t seem to be anything special about it, and there are also two troublesome lumps of fat that will definitely get in the way during a fight, so what’s there to look at?
"..."
As he spoke, Luffy stopped and began to fall into deep thought, with an even bigger smile on his face. He looked stupid and didn't know what he was thinking of.
However……
"Oh~!"
٩(๑´0`๑)۶
At this time, a certain naughty kid yawned and stretched out of place, breaking Luffy's thoughts that had finally come to him.
"It's so early to get up, I'm still a little sleepy..."
(っ̯-｡)
Annie began to rub her eyes. As for how much she listened to what Luffy just said, that was a matter of opinion.
"Eh?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Those ships over there, aren't they just the ones with white beards?"
(・ε・´)
At this time, Anne seemed to see several ships appearing on the sea level in the distance. The other ship's direction was similar to theirs, but it was sailing diagonally, and there seemed to be a big big letter printed on the sail of the other ship. White Cross Bearded Skull?
"!!"
"Where is it?"
After hearing what Annie said, Luffy quickly put his hand on his forehead and looked at it.
"Yes!"
"That's right! Just that flag, there's nothing wrong with it!"
"That's Whitebeard's fleet!"
Finally, when the distance between the two parties got closer and closer, and when he could clearly see the huge emblem of the Whitebeard Pirates on the sail, Luffy clenched his fists excitedly and waved them.
Now he can finally rest assured, because Whitebeard's fleet is indeed coming!
When the time comes, it will definitely be much easier for him to rescue Ace if someone with white beard goes to fight the navy and attract attention.
Therefore, although he had never had a good impression of Whitebeard, now Luffy felt that he had suddenly become particularly friendly.
Anyway, now their goals are aligned, at least, for now?
"That……"
(,,•́.•̀,,)
"Do you need us to go over and say hello to them?"
✧＼٩('ω')و／✧
Anne suddenly suggested.
Of course, she didn't mean anything else. She just wanted to see if the white-bearded pirate's beard was the same as the one printed on the sail of the other party's ship. It looked very distinctive?
(…)
(￢㉨￢.)
"No!"
"Let's move to the side to avoid it."
"Dibaru!"
Rarely, Luffy, who never liked using his brain, frowned and thought for a moment. Then, he shouted to Dibalu who was standing aside.
"yes!"
"Left full rudder!"
"hurry up!"
Dibaru also saw a fleet of several ships belonging to the Whitebeard Pirates. Therefore, knowing what Luffy meant, he quickly waved an order. Soon, the Sunny was under the control of the helmsman. Down, he made a light turn and gradually moved away from the white-bearded fleet in the distance, heading towards a front that would avoid intersecting with the opponent's course as much as possible.
"Why?"
!(;ﾟoﾟ)o
"Wouldn't it be better to go with them?"
(∩'ヮ'=͟͟͞͞)੭ु
Anne didn't know whether it was good or not, but anyway, she only knew that if she didn't lean over now, she wouldn't be able to see White Beard's beard.
"no!"
"I wonder if Whitebeard is there too, and..."
Luffy's face was tense, completely different from his usual cheerful expression.
"I don't know Whitebeard or Whitebeard's other captains, and I'm not sure what their attitude is towards us, so it's better not to get into trouble."
After all, the sun is getting higher now, and there are only a few hours left before Ace is publicly executed. He absolutely cannot mess around at this time, and the man with white beard is definitely preparing for the next battle. After all kinds of preparations, the other party must not have time, or is not in the mood to pay attention to him. If he approaches rashly, he may be attacked or something.
"Is that so?"
⊙﹏⊙‖∣°
"Oh well!"
ε=(´ο｀*)))Alas
Anyway, there were still a few hours, and sooner or later, she would be able to see that white-bearded guy, so after thinking about it, Annie didn't insist too much.
"Let's go!"
"Annie, let's go to the kitchen and have something to eat!"
Taking one last look at the fleet of the Whitebeard Pirates that was getting further and further away in the distance, Luffy suddenly gave a high-five, and then planned to have another big meal.
"!!"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Still eating? Didn't you just eat?"
(°ー°〃)
Breakfast, something very rare for Anne, she had already eaten it just now, although it was not very rich?
"Then eat some more. Only when you are full will you have the strength to fight!"
"That's it!"
With that said, Luffy stopped caring about Annie, turned around bitterly, left the lawn deck, and ran quickly towards the kitchen.
"..."
(lll￢▽￢)
Anne did not follow.
She could tell that Luffy must be nervous, so he needed to eat to relieve his mood. Of course, eating fuller was indeed beneficial to fighting, and it was also beneficial to sleep.
"Then let me sleep for a while!"
٩(๑´0`๑)۶
"Just wait until you get to the place and wake them up."
୧(‾◡◝)୨ꔛ♩
Just let that idiot Luffy eat his early breakfast, while Annie just sleeps on her own. There are still a few hours anyway, so she is definitely not in a hurry.
"ah?"
"that……"
"Ann, Queen Anne, we have reached this juncture, can you still sleep?".
At this time, Dibalu asked strangely.
You know, let alone now, even last night, these people couldn't sleep well all night. When they thought about going to the Navy Headquarters to fight at noon today, their hearts were in a state of confusion. Where can I close my eyes again?
That kind of scary thing is no joke. If it's not good, people like them may never have to worry about not having time to sleep or whether they can close their eyes.
"Why can't you sleep?"
(๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
"The weather is so good and the boat is rocking like a cradle. It's a good sleep!"
₍₍(´◠◡◠`)₎₎♪
"I won't tell you anymore, goodbye!"
(*๓´ꌂ`๓)
After making a face, Annie didn't care what Dibalu and others thought, she turned around and skipped towards the girls' room.
"..."
"..."
On the deck, Dibalu, Xiaoba and others looked at each other, somewhat speechless.
…
When the Sonny discovered Whitebeard's fleet and turned and moved in another direction, a strong pirate holding a telescope on a ship in the Whitebeard fleet in the distance was also carefully observing the Sonny. The situation above.
"Dad!"
"That ship over there seems to be the ship of Luffy, the Straw Hat pirate who was rumored to be causing trouble in Impel Down yesterday."
After seeing the Sonny turn around, the strong pirate put down his telescope angrily, then walked up to a strong old man with a white beard that curved upward like a crescent moon on his face and reported loudly.
"oh?"
"It's him..."
After hearing his son's words, the old man finally opened his eyes and glanced curiously in the direction of the Sonny.
"Dad!"
"Do we need to send someone to ask them to come over for a gathering?"
"Although that Straw Hat Luffy's strength is average, the other crew member, that naughty kid, is really amazing!"
The captain asked with emotion and eagerly.
Now, who in this world doesn't know the name of the 'little kid' pirate Anne Hastur?
Attacked the Celestial Dragons, defeated the navy, beat up the admiral and defeated the naval science unit. Not long ago, he caused a riot in Impel Down and escaped unscathed. The bounty has reached 5.5 billion, and I believe he will soon surpass the former Pirate King Luo. Jie's 5.5648 million is hundreds of millions higher than their father's 5.464 billion. That's something he admires and admires a lot, and he really wants to see him. See each other.
"No need!"
"snort……"
"From the fact that they dared to raid the Impel City, it is not difficult to guess that their purpose should be the same as ours."
"We don't have much time now. There's no need to make trouble. Let's continue to act as planned!"
"go!"
"Submit a message and ask each captain to arrive in time without any mistakes!"
Without hesitation, the old man with a white beard with a crescent-shaped face that curved upward directly waved his hand and rejected his son's proposal.
Just like what he said just now, he believes that when the time comes, that Straw Hat Luffy and that naughty kid will definitely appear. They can just do their own things well, and there is no need to worry about not being able to see those who have the purpose of seeing them when the time comes. They are exactly the same 'friendly forces'.
"!!"
"yes!"
He stood at attention with his legs together, and then the strong pirate quickly went to the cabin to send a message.
"..."
"Hey!"
"A naughty kid?"
After pondering for a while, he finally cast a squinting glance at the Sonny, which was gradually getting further away on the horizon. Then, the old man with the white beard that curved upward like a crescent moon on his face didn't say anything more, and just continued to sit on his own. He closed his eyes and rested in his position.
"Hmph..."
"It's time to teach the Navy a lesson!"
"Let them know..."
"This sea is not entirely up to them!"
