One Piece: Three Fruits, Starting with the Dark-Dark Fruit

Somewhere in the sea, the huge Zou was advancing on the huge waves.

Its body was shrouded in a misty white light. From a distance, it looked like a hazy straw hat, and it looked incredibly huge.

What’s strange is that Zou’s intense actions at sea did not make any sound, it was completely silent.

Above Zou, Joyboy was sitting cross-legged on a giant tree. His skin was shining with a layer of bright white light. From time to time, white flames passed by. A white flame cloud ribbon drove large pieces of leaves to circle around him in a regular pattern.

High in the sky above his head, a straw hat was spinning slightly, and white spots of light were constantly emanating from it. These spots of light finally all merged into the huge straw hat covering Zou's body, as if replenishing some kind of energy to the protective shield.

Rustle...

A bush under the giant tree shook a few times, and Pedro pushed aside the branches and leaves and crawled out.

He wore a crown on his head and looked up at Joyboy above the giant tree, his eyes full of awe.

Joyboy on the tree also opened his eyes at this time, and two white lights as real as substance burst out from them, shining on a big tree in front of him. The big tree unexpectedly twisted strangely, and then began to expand rapidly. The thick branches on it turned into twisting tentacles, and one of the tentacles stretched out to Pedro below, rolled him up and sent him in front of Joyboy.

Pedro turned his head and looked at the slowly receding branches, a look of amazement on his face.

Joyboy grinned, jumped up from the ground, patted Pedro on the shoulder, and said,

"Is it fun?"

Pedro calmed down and responded,

“What a miraculous ability!”

Joyboy crossed his arms with a grin on his face, and compared to how embarrassed he was when he first came to Zou, he now looked extremely confident.

Because he has taken back the "legacy" he left there, and after such a period of running-in, his body and Luffy's have been completely integrated, his strength is increasing day by day, and he is not far from recovering to his peak period.

Now, every move he makes can affect the things around him. According to his words, it allows all things to break free from the constraints of rules and dance wildly in this world.

He looked up at the straw hat spinning in the sky, and then asked Pedro,

"Pedro, how has everyone's training been going during this period?"

Pedro, wearing a crown, lowered his head, as if reporting to Joyboy, and said,

"They have all mastered the use of Haki. Now they are qualified Mink Tribe warriors!"

"We are freedom fighters. Don't forget our name, the Freedom Army!"

"Yes! Freedom Army!"

When the word freedom was mentioned, Pedro's face flushed with a sickly red, as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He continued,

"I also used the previous full moon nights to help those young people who haven't mastered the transformation become familiar with the key points of transformation. They are now able to suppress their excitement during the transformation!"

Hearing this, the smile on Joyboy's face became even brighter. This time he put both hands on Pedro's shoulders and exclaimed,

"Pedro, you did a great job! It's great to have a partner like you!"

Joyboy's two consecutive "that's great"s almost made Pedro feel like he was floating on the sky. Looking at his expression, it might be exaggerated to say that he wanted to take out his heart and give it to Joyboy.

He patted his chest vigorously and said loudly,

"This is what I should do! Don't worry, Joey Boy, I will definitely help you get rid of Tianlong and liberate the whole world!"

Joyboy's eyes were filled with tears. He hugged Pedro and said,

"Okay, okay! Let's make the name of the Freedom Army resound throughout the world!!"

After saying that, Joyboy grabbed Pedro's shoulders, jumped directly from the giant tree, and landed on the elastic ground.

Pedro calmed down his excitement and asked,

"Joeyboy, what should we do next? Just tell us, all of us fur-tribes will listen to you!"

Joey Boy shook his head and said slowly,

"Pedro, you are wrong. Some of your people have not yet recognized us."

Pedro's face darkened instantly. He snorted coldly and said,

"It's all because of those two traitors, Wanda and Garrott!"

Joy Boy, whose abilities were restored, noticed Jiger's arrival yesterday, so he drove Zou to crouch above the sea, and used the giant straw hat to isolate the sea water and conceal his breath, thus avoiding Jiger's detection and narrowly escaped from him.

During this process, Joyboy also discovered Wanda and Carrot who were being taken care of by Zig, and thus learned that the news about him on Zou had been revealed to Zig by Wanda and Carrot.

Thinking of this, Joyboy shook his head and said,

"It's my fault, actually. I didn't expect them to tell the Navy about what happened here. I ran into them when I was leaving the island, and I should have stopped them."

Seeing that Joyboy was somewhat self-blaming, Pedro hurriedly comforted him.

"It's not your fault. It's my fault for not controlling my people well!"

As he spoke, Pedro's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and he said in a deep voice,

"If I meet them on the battlefield in the future, I will definitely not show mercy!"

Joy Boy waved his hand and said,

"No need to do that. They are still too young. Don't worry about them anymore. Tianlong has already noticed something. Before the battle begins, we must be more cautious and increase our strength as much as possible."

"Yes, Joyboy, how is your strength recovering?"

Joey Boy narrowed his eyes, clenched his fists, felt the power flowing out of his body, and said,

"It will take some time, but there will be no problem in fully recovering before Zou arrives there. This time, I won't fail again!"

After he finished speaking, a powerful domineering lightning suddenly emanated from Joyboy's body. Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Joyboy, Pedro became more and more excited, as if he had already seen the day when they would overthrow the rule of the Celestial Dragons.

Meanwhile, among the flowers in the deepest part of Marijoa,

Sitting on the throne of the sky, Im slowly raised his head and looked forward with cold eyes.

Her hands gently stroked the armrests of the throne, and a thick layer of black clouds gathered above Marijoa, and a terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire Marijoa.

The expressions of the Five Elders outside Huajian changed, and they all knelt down in the direction of Huajian.
