Chapter 853 3 Days of Farewell
During the time when the Straw Hat Pirates were reuniting one after another, a fake Straw Hat Pirates appeared in the Sabaody Archipelago, and under the banner of Straw Hat Luffy, they began to recruit soldiers in an attempt to covet the great treasure at the end of the Grand Line!
Vic didn't care. Although the high profile of this group of counterfeits would attract the attention of the navy, the first voyage of the future Pirate King after two years of silence should be grand and lively, which was in line with the appearance and temperament of the future Pirate King.
As a pirate ship docked, Victor's observation Haki immediately sensed two particularly familiar auras. Yes, this docked pirate ship was the famous Perfume Dragon, and Snake Princess Hancock finally sent Luffy over.
"Luffy! Take care!"
"Thank you, Hancock! Goodbye, hehe!"
After a brief explanation, Hancock put a hooded cow-colored cloak on Luffy, wrapped Luffy completely in the cloak, and put on a red nose and a fake beard. She also put a big bag that was about to burst on Luffy's back. Then she waved goodbye to Luffy!
Hancock did all this to make Luffy sail in a low-key manner. Two years ago, Luffy caused a lot of trouble on the top, and the navy didn't intend to let him go. Little did they know that there was a fool on the island pretending to be Luffy and recruiting soldiers, causing quite a stir.
At this time, the navy has been alarmed and a lot of manpower has been dispatched. Even Zhan Taomaru has received orders and is leading the androids to provide support. The battle is about to break out!
Because it was Nobita who took action, and he made the arrangements after listening to Wick's introduction, the experience of the Straw Hat Pirates is basically the same as the original. Wick also subconsciously wants to be foresighted because he knows the later plot, because this will be more beneficial to his plan!
Therefore, many things that Vic did were also in line with the original work. Perhaps time travelers all hope to be foresighted, because this may be their greatest golden finger!
Because Luffy was the last to arrive, he was involved in the scene of the counterfeit recruiting soldiers. His disguise was seen through by the androids guarding the periphery. After a few laser shots, Luffy's true identity was revealed. This made Zhan Taomaru very excited. He didn't expect that when he came to fight the fake Li Kui, he met the real Li Kui. It was really an unexpected gain.
However, Zhan Taomaru did not expect that the Straw Hat Boy would change so much and become so much stronger. He killed an android with just one punch, and his fist was wrapped with armed color domineering, which is the standard configuration of the new world and the standard configuration of the strong!
Zhan Taomaru was very surprised. Only two years had passed, and the Straw Hat Boy who was beaten by him at the beginning had been completely transformed and was truly qualified to go to the New World.
"Zhan Taowan! You really can't compare people's talents, or you'll be depressed to death!"
When Luffy was beating the androids, Victor was watching not far away. It was really that the fake Luffy was making such a big fuss here that attracted many people to come and watch the fun.
They were just a bunch of unsophisticated people who thought they could trick a bunch of thugs into working for them by pretending to be a missing celebrity? They didn't know that the navy was also attracted by his high-profile actions, and some people even sneaked into the team to kill him!
Even if Luffy didn't show up today, they would have been killed by Sen Taomaru or Caribou. They have absolutely no sense of crisis and experience. If you don't die, who will?
Vic and Zhan Taomaru are old acquaintances. When he was working as a security guard for Vegapunk in Punk Hazard, Zhan Taomaru had been adopted by Vegapunk for many years. Later, he learned a lot from Kizaru, including Armament Haki.
It’s just that Zhan Taomaru’s talent is not particularly outstanding, he just came into contact with Haki earlier. Even if he had learned it seven or eight years earlier, he could not stop a talented person like Luffy. So Victor still felt a little sympathy for Zhan Taomaru. He ran 10,000 meters early but still could not beat others!
"Luffy!"*2
"Hahaha! It's you, I'm sure this time, you really haven't changed at all! Hahahaha!"
"Luffy! You're the last one to arrive."
"Green algae head! Can you understand the situation?"
"You're number seven!"
"I...I, without me, you would have been lost a long time ago. You wouldn't have been able to get here!"
"seventh!"
"..."
...
After Luffy killed the android, another one came to support him immediately, but he was killed by Zoro and Sanji who arrived. At this point in the story, the Straw Hat Pirates, who had disappeared for two years, have once again entered the navy's sight.
However, Luffy and his crew acted quickly. After gathering their companions, they immediately headed for the Sunny to prepare to head to Fishman Island.
There were people who helped them during this period, such as Usopp's master Hercules, the big bird who brought Chopper, the old men in Victoria when Nami was learning about the weather, the rough monsters who came with Sanji, Rayleigh, the god of the underworld who cut off the retreat with one sword, and Boa Hancock, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea who shot fossil shells.
With the help of these people, they arrived at the Sunny without much effort. After Franky removed the driftwood from the bottom of the ship, the Sunny officially dived into the sea. The Straw Hat Pirates also began their new journey, which was also the journey to the top in Rayleigh's words!
"Mr. Rayleigh! Are you okay?"
"It's okay! As I get older, I always feel sad about parting. I'll be fine after a while!"
After solving the problem of the navy's pursuit, Vic and Rayleigh reunited. The two watched the Sunny entering the water and the smiles on the faces of Luffy and others on the deck, but tears welled up in Rayleigh's eyes!
After a year and a half of getting along, Rayleigh has already developed deep feelings for him, and Luffy is the kind of person who easily makes people develop feelings for him. This is Luffy's unique charm. In front of him are Red Hair, Ace, and Dadan's group, and behind him are his companions and Rayleigh. Of course, there are also people who have not been together for a long time but have already regarded him as a close friend. There are also many such people.
"Mr. Rayleigh! What are your plans for the future?"
"I have retired a long time ago, what plans can I have? I might as well go back to my old job and just read the news from the new world from time to time!"
"You want to watch Luffy climb to the top step by step, right? It shouldn't take long!"
"Haha! I guess so. I also believe he can do it!"
"Mr. Rayleigh! The drinking party we agreed on earlier?"
"Let's go, it's over. We won't go home until we're drunk today. But you have to treat me. I don't have any money! Hahaha!"
"Yes! It's my treat. Plenty of wine!"
……
Wick and Rayleigh found a relatively quiet tavern and drank all the wine in the tavern before leaving. Rayleigh is the vice captain of the Pirate King Roger, and his alcohol tolerance is not to be underestimated. Like Whitebeard Shanks, he drinks wine as if it were water.
Vic's alcohol tolerance is neither good nor bad. He only drinks occasionally, but with his strength, he can drink a lot. What's more, he has also comprehended the law of thunder and lightning, which can act on the body and decompose alcohol instantly. He can really raise a finger and say to others, I can drink all the time. This is not bragging for Vic.
After the drinking party, Vic helped Reilly back to the Knockoff Bar. Seeing Reilly drunk, Xia Qi came over to support him with a look of heartache and glared at Vic fiercely on the way. Vic smiled embarrassedly and disappeared without waiting for Xia Qi to say anything.
"This kid's current strength is simply unfathomable!"
"A new generation replaces the old!"
"You haven't drunk yourself to death yet? I'm already preparing for your funeral!"
"Haha! I can still hold on for a few more years. I can't die without seeing that scene!"
"Is it the thing you saw in Raftel?"
"Don't ask, it won't do you any good!"
"Oh! I'll help you go in and rest."
