Chapter 871 Something is going on
...
"It's been so fast, has it been over a year?"
"I don't know how everyone is doing now, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper, Kaku, Robin, Ace and Sabo!"
Luffy lost in memories.
"I'm sure they're all working hard to become stronger to fulfill their promise! Hahaha, I can't fall behind either. I must surprise them next time we meet!"
Luffy felt excited just thinking about it. He reached out to touch the top of his head out of habit, but when his hand missed, he remembered that his straw hat was still stored under the safety tree.
"Hey, Uncle Rayleigh, thank you very much for this period of time!"
Luffy bowed solemnly and continued.
"I'm sorry. Because of teaching me how to practice, your salary was deducted by your hateful boss. But don't worry, I will definitely compensate you for your loss when I find the treasure at sea!"
"Hahahaha!"
Rayleigh smiled with relief.
"Luffy, I appreciate your kindness."
"However, there is no need for compensation. Don't look at me wearing ragged slippers and shorts. I am actually not short of money at all. I just handed in my salary card! Alas..."
"Oh, so Uncle Rayleigh, you are a rich man. That's great. Ahahahaha!"
Luffy laughed heartlessly, completely failing to appreciate the sadness in Rayleigh's words.
"So, what are your plans next, Luffy? Want to leave this island with me?"
"Forehead…"
Luffy stroked his chin and thought for a moment.
"No! I want to stay and continue to practice. Scar Lion, Black King Kong, Fat Crocodile... There are still several beasts on this island that I cannot defeat with my current strength. Anyway, there is still about half a year before the agreed date. I must defeat them before I leave! Become the boss here!"
Luffy said confidently.
“Very good, very good momentum!”
"Ok?"
Rayleigh was halfway through his praise when he suddenly frowned and turned to look towards the north of the island.
“Quack! Quack! Quack!”
In the jungle, startled birds flew away from the treetops and circled in the air, chirping.
"what happens?"
Luffy also released his observation Haki to sense the movements around him.
"This is!?"
Suddenly, an undisguised aura that was far more powerful than he could imagine broke into his detection range without warning!
Luffy couldn't help but tremble all over, cold sweat the size of beans broke out on his forehead, and goose bumps appeared instantly!
"So strong! Stronger than you, uncle!"
"coming!"
Luffy's eyes were wide open, shock written all over his face, and his body instinctively switched to Gear 2, ready for battle.
"Don't stop Luffy, this is a rare opportunity, feel it with all your heart."
After a brief moment of shock, Rayleigh regained his composure and walked up to Luffy, patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him.
"This is the distance between you and the top of the ocean! You still have a long way to go in the future, Luffy!"
"Yeah! I understand."
Luffy nodded seriously.
"Boom! Boom!"
The trees fell one after another, indicating that dangerous creatures were approaching step by step.
Soon, through the dense woods, the sound of people talking began to be heard.
"Hey, hey, hey, although combat power has always been a mystery, this is too much!"
"Although a supernova pirate with a bounty of 3 million berries isn't particularly powerful, there are only a few of them in this world dominated by humans."
"Now you suddenly tell me that on this unknown island, there are no less than 3 beasts with strength exceeding the bounty of million berries. Is this true?"
The nagging complaints are becoming clearer and clearer...
"If I were to travel through time and space and start with a pet fruit, I could directly lead these hundreds of beasts that are far more powerful than supernovas with bounties of hundreds of millions to roam the sea. Wouldn't that be even more "hundreds of beasts" than the Hundred Beasts Pirates? Tsk tsk tsk, it seems quite feasible when I think about it!"
"Forehead…"
Ace wiped the sweat off his forehead. He had obviously tried very hard, but sometimes he really couldn't understand the "human language" spoken by Captain Gul.
"Um... by the way, where is my pet fruit? It can directly enslave beasts and humans. This ability may come in handy in the future. Well, when I return, I must ask Morgans and the others to immediately arrest a pirate named Breed!"
Ger began to talk to himself again.
"Where are you going? You must take me with you this time, brother!"
With one hand, Weibull grabbed a tail and dragged a prehistoric giant crocodile and a mighty lion that had already "died" behind him.
"If I had a choice, I would definitely take you with me, brother. It would be very dangerous if you were thrown into a pile of wild beasts right after you arrived."
"Yeah, there are so many beasts here, brother, and every one of them looks delicious! It's great!"
Weibull couldn't help drooling at the corners of his mouth.
Although he and Geer are never on the same channel, Weibull's "self-centered" way of chatting can always make him have a good chat with his brother.
"Yes, brother. We can't finish it! Let's go and get out of the forest first before grilling."
"Okay, brother."
Captain Gel, who was too lazy to walk by himself, just sat on the crocodile's back and let Weevil drag him forward.
As soon as he came out of the dense woods, Gel heard a familiar loud voice from a distance.
"Ah! It's Scar Lion and Fat Crocodile! Damn it, you actually killed them all! I haven't successfully challenged them all yet!"
Luffy was a little unhappy when he saw that the small goal he had set was achieved by others.
"Wow! It's charcoal fire! Grilling meat, grilling meat!"
Weevil wasn't listening at all. As soon as he saw the bonfire burning next to Luffy and Rayleigh, he excitedly rushed over with his two prey!
"Here he comes! Uncle Rayleigh, you don't have to do anything, I'll stop him!"
Luffy could clearly feel the overwhelming power of Weevil, but he still did not choose to retreat.
"No ..."
Before Rayleigh could finish his words, Luffy had already rushed out.
"Hey! Wait...Luffy!"
"Third gear!"
Luffy bit his right thumb hard, puffed up his cheeks and blew a lot of air into it. His right arm quickly grew larger, and then he injected the armed color domineering into his fist!
The opponent is very strong! This is a good opportunity to test the results of his training! So Luffy immediately used the strongest attack he currently possesses!
"Rubber rubber! Elephant gun!!"
"Huh? What? Trying to steal my meat?"
Facing the sudden attack of the huge black fist, Weevil calmly put down the crocodile tail and freed up one hand!
"boom!"
A crisp sound was heard!
Under Luffy's incredulous gaze, his strongest attack was actually slapped back by the opponent!
"Ahhhhh~"
Luffy instantly spun irregularly in the air for several circles like a deflated balloon before falling heavily to the ground.
"Damn it, so strong!"
Luffy got up from the ground in a panic and was about to continue fighting when a familiar voice came to his ears.
"Hey! Stop it Luffy!"
Seeing the person coming, Luffy couldn't help but grin, showing his two rows of teeth, and shouted excitedly.
"Ace! Why are you here?!"
"Sashi ignores me, Luffy!"
Ace lifted the brim of his hat to reveal his handsome face. He seemed relaxed, but he was actually very panicked. Fortunately, he stopped it quickly, otherwise he was really afraid that Weevil would lose control of his strength and beat his stupid brother to death.
