【One Piece】Dawn in the Darkness

"Ah...ah!" Coby cried out in pain from the wound on his shoulder, but when he heard Zoro telling him to leave, he refused and tried to stand up "I'm going to untie you."

"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine as long as I hold on for a month." Zoro persuaded. There was no need to risk his life for him. He only needed to stay for a month and he could leave. "Go now!"

"You won't be saved! You will be executed in three days!" Coby tried to control his shaking body and walked towards Zoro tremblingly. He cried and shouted, "He has no intention of keeping the agreement!"

"No...no way..." Zoro was shocked at their shamelessness and angry at himself for believing these people so easily.

"The navy is your enemy now, please! Please go help Luffy after the rope is untied!" Coby cried, "I won't ask you to be a pirate, but... he is my savior, I don't want to lose him. Luffy is very strong, as long as you join forces, you can definitely escape from here!"

Zoro looked at Coby, he didn't say anything, he only knew one thing, that was he couldn't die here, he still had a promise to fulfill, for which he would do anything to keep himself alive, even if that meant becoming a villain.

"Surround them!" Colonel Morgan ordered. "How interesting... Are you three planning a coup? Roronoa Zoro, your name is well-known! But don't underestimate me! Your power is insignificant in front of my greatness!"

"preparation!"

Zoro stared at the gun pointed at him. He suddenly realized that he was so close to death, but he made a promise. He couldn't die, absolutely not in a place like this! He had something important to do! He had promised Kuina! He would become the world's number one swordsman! He absolutely... absolutely couldn't die in a place like this! !

"shooting!"

"Rubber rubber... rocket!!"

"Hey! You...!" Zoro couldn't believe that the boy actually sacrificed himself so that he and Coby could survive.

"Luffy!!" Coby cried as he looked at Luffy's back standing in front of him.

"The guy wearing a straw hat!" Morgan looked at the straw hat that suddenly appeared, and veins popped out on his forehead.

"Hey!" Luffy curled up his body, and the bullets in his body continued to extend backwards. Then he shouted "It's useless!" He stretched out his body and bounced all the bullets hitting him back.

"Waaaaaaah~" the navy men screamed in fright at the sudden reflection of the bullet.

"Hahahaha!" Luffy laughed, seemingly satisfied with the chaos he had caused.

"Who the hell are you!" Zoro shouted in shock.

"I am... the man who will become the Pirate King!" Luffy shouted with a smile, announcing his dream to the world.

"This is your treasure." Luffy took off the three swords on his back and handed them to Zoro, saying with a smile, "I couldn't figure out which one was yours, so I brought all three."

"All three are mine... I'm a three-sword master." said Zoro.

"Wow, that's cool!" Luffy smiled and held the sword while looking at the marines standing aside. "So now you want to join me in fighting the marines and become a wanted villain by the government, or do you want to die here? Make your choice!"

"You are the son of the devil!" Zoro grinned. "It doesn't matter. Instead of being beaten to death here, I'd rather be a pirate with you!"

"Oh! That's great! You agree to be my partner?" Luffy raised his hands and shouted excitedly.

"Yes, yes, please help me untie the rope." Zoro responded helplessly.

"Who is that guy? He actually bounced the bullet back..." The navy said in surprise as he looked at the people in the square.

"That kid is not an ordinary person... He must have eaten the legendary 'Devil Fruit'," Morgan said solemnly.

"Colonel...Colonel, he is untying Sauron's rope!" one of the marines said in horror.

"Stop him!" Morgan ordered. "If the gun doesn't work on him, then use the knife!"

"Hey! Stop dawdling! Help me untie it!" Zoro shouted in despair at the navy rushing towards him.

"Damn it, this knot is impossible to untie..." Luffy wailed while pulling the rope.

"Hey! Stop wasting time!" Zoro shouted as the marines were approaching them.

"Wait a minute, stop making noise." Luffy muttered as he carefully untied the rope.

"How can I wait in this situation!?" Zoro shouted angrily.

"Uh... did I faint? What on earth happened..." Coby sat up, holding his head. When he looked up, he saw a terrifying scene. Countless marines were approaching Luffy and his friends with knives in hand. "Luffy, Zoro! Danger!!"

"Oh! Finally one hand is untied." Luffy said happily as he looked at the untied rope on his hand.

"Idiot! Give me the knife!" Zoro shouted to Luffy anxiously.

The moment Zoro got the knife, he cut the rope on his hands, and then immediately used the knife to block all the marines who were swinging their swords at him.

"Wow! That's so cool!!" Luffy shouted happily.

Zoro heard Luffy's voice. He glanced at the group of marines that he was blocking and said, "Stand still! If you dare to move, I will kill you!"

"How terrifying!" The navy members were almost crying due to being scared by Zoro's beast-like eyes.

"I promised you that I would be a pirate. Since I am going against the navy, I am a bad guy, but I have my own ambitions." Zoro looked at Luffy, "I want to be the world's number one swordsman! At this point, I no longer care about my reputation. Whether it is a bad name or a good name, I want the whole world to know my name!"

He pushed aside all the marines and asked them to step aside. He looked at the boy in front of him and said seriously, "You are the one who made me become a pirate. So if you dare to force me to give up my dream... then I want you to commit seppuku in front of me to make amends!"

"Ni hehe! The world's best swordsman... not bad!!" Luffy grinned and said, "The partner of the Pirate King... at least he should be like this!"

"What are you daydreaming about? Execute those guys now!" Morgan shouted angrily.

"Zoro! Crouch!" Luffy grinned, then he swung his feet back "Rubber rubber...whip!"

Zoro subconsciously did as Luffy asked, and then he was shocked to see Luffy kicking the marines with his longer legs, knocking them all to the ground.

"What on earth are you..." Zoro said in shock.

"I'm the rubber man!" Luffy proudly showed them.

"Colonel! We are no match for them!"

"What's more, even Roronoa is involved... We can't defeat them at all."

"Those guys who showed weakness just now...shoot yourselves!" Colonel Morgan said cruelly, "I don't need useless subordinates. This is an order!"

Zoro looked at the navy in shock. They actually followed orders and prepared to shoot themselves. "There is something wrong with this army..."

"Luffy! Let's destroy this navy as soon as possible!" Coby shouted in pain.

Luffy jumped over the marines and swung at Colonel Morgan, who blocked Luffy's attack with the large axe in his right hand.

Luffy grinned at Colonel Morgan and continued his attack with more strength, pushing his large body aside and spinning around to kick Morgan's head hard with his legs.

"stop!"

Luffy turned his head and saw that his stupid son was holding Coby hostage, but he did not stop his actions and continued to punch Morgan in the face.

"I told you to stop!!"

"Luffy! I don't want to be a burden to you! Even if I die!" Coby shouted.

"Haha, I know." Luffy grinned, looking at his stupid son, then swung his right arm and said with a smile, "Give up, stupid son, Coby is serious!"

"Rubber rubber..."

Colonel Morgan raised his axe in his right hand and stood behind Luffy, shouting angrily, "I am a Marine Colonel!!"

Luffy punched his stupid son next to Coby "Gun!"

Zoro immediately stood behind Luffy and blocked Morgan's attack with his sword.

"Zoro!" Luffy shouted with a smile, and then knocked Morgan away with one blow.

"It's a piece of cake, Captain!" Zoro grinned.
