One Piece: Under the Throne

Time passed quickly, and Leo's adventure continued. Five years passed before he knew it, and it was already the year 5 in the Haiyuan calendar.

"This damn weather, it's stormy again, retract the sails and activate the submersible equipment."

A blond young man was standing in the pouring rain and issuing orders. The young man was none other than Leo. He was now 22 years old. His childishness had faded and his face had gradually become tougher. His blond hair was shoulder-level and neatly tied behind his head. His ocean-like pupils were deeper than they were 5 years ago. What remained unchanged was that he still had a smirk on his lips and the Prime Minister was still standing on his left shoulder. Of course, his height, Leo was still only 1 meters tall. In the world of One Piece full of huge sweats, he was just a little kid.

The golden sword light cut the cable, and then Ah Fu flashed and grabbed the broken rope that was flying in the wind, and pulled the sail hard to retract it. He made a sword flower and put the sword back into the sheath, and tied the cable to the mast. The whole process was so graceful and smooth without any unnecessary movements.

This person is Ah Fu. When a man is nearly 40 years old, he is at his most charming. The long sailing life has left no trace on his face. On the contrary, because he has worked as a butler for many years, his temperament has become more elegant.

The masts of the ship were retracted one by one, and the hull began to deform. Suddenly, two giant sea kings with lion heads jumped out of the water, and were about to swallow the Poseidon with their big mouths. But just as their bodies began to fall, a charming voice was heard from the stern. [Super Electromagnetic Cannon] As soon as the words fell, a beam of electricity shot out and hit one of the sea kings with a whistling sound, directly piercing the opponent's head.

At the same time, a loud explosion was heard from the other side. The surface of the remaining sea king's body exploded, and blood spurted out. In an instant, the giant sea king's body broke into several pieces.

"Gloria, it's just killing a sea king, don't make it so bloody."

The one who spoke was Gloria, the former rebellious girl in heaven, but now she has reached the age of a mature lady. After getting used to life in Qinghai, her image has also changed.

Her originally beautiful silver hair was braided into dreadlocks and tied behind her head. She wore a shoulder-baring tube top under her leather jacket. Hot pants and short leather boots showed off her pair of snow-white long legs to the fullest. She was wearing half-finger gloves and was still in an attacking posture.

"It can only be blamed on its weakness. I haven't even used my most powerful weapon yet."

Behind Gloria is Gloria, who used to be the team's poster girl, violent loli, and eldest daughter. Her personality has gradually matured after she turned 20. Her decent maid outfit sets off her proud curves, and her twin ponytails make her look cute in her maturity. At this moment, Gloria was holding two crossbows pointing at the sky, and she put the weapons under her skirt when she heard what was said.

At the other end of the ship, the window of the captain's room was opened, and a round head was trying to squeeze out.

"Leo, the left hatch is stuck and won't rise. We can't enter submerged mode now."

The person who was speaking was Will, who was one year younger than Leo. After entering maturity, his body size was as big as a balloon that was visible to the naked eye. Now the little fat fish was taller and fatter, with a height of more than 1 meters. He was the most burly person in the team. In addition to being a boatman, he was also a fighter in the team.

"Shit, it must have been damaged during the previous battle with the pirates. Victoria, go help pull up the left hatch."

Before he could finish his words, a huge wave came and was about to swallow up the Poseidon.

[If this horse can fulfill its ambition of a thousand miles, it can still reach the end of the world by chasing the wind] A mysterious force wrapped around the ship, and the sailing speed suddenly increased. In the dangerous moment, the prime minister used the power of its fruit to help the ship escape the disaster.

After hearing Leo's order, Victoria came to the left deck and shouted, "Come out [Cotton Soldier]," and after a clear female voice, the left deck was covered with plants. The plants grew very fast and connected the left and right decks in a blink of an eye, then tightened their bodies and pulled up the stuck left deck.

At this point, the Poseidon became fully enclosed, and the ship quickly dived underwater and left the storm area.

"Captain, it's done." Time is particularly kind to the Vestiriya clan. The growth cycle of girls in this clan is particularly long. After 5 years, the girl has not changed at all. She is still small and soft, and likes to wear complicated Gothic long skirts. Of course, her figure is still flat. The little princess with flowing life is the same as before.

"Phew! I'm so tired. There have been so many things happening lately. Either I've encountered a shipwreck or I've encountered pirates. By the way, the number of pirates has increased recently. I've encountered three groups this week."

Leo was complaining helplessly on the deck, when suddenly the cabin door opened and the sound of a dining cart being pushed could be heard from inside.

"Captain, please stop complaining, because we have made a lot of money from these maritime disasters. Come have some afternoon tea and relax." Charles, with his dark green hair neatly combed, a white shirt with a swallowtail vest, black trousers and leather shoes, dressed like a waiter, came out pushing a bowl of delicious food.

Our chef, despite the violent shaking of the ship, still prepared a rich and delicious afternoon tea. He came to Leo pushing the dining cart in one hand and holding the plate in the other.

Leo picked up a piece of dessert at random and after tasting it, he felt better: "Maybe it's because I'm too bored recently. I'm not motivated to deal with petty thieves all the time. Why don't we go back to the new world?"

Ah Fu took a cup of coffee and sipped it elegantly: "Still going to the New World? Aren't you afraid that Big Mom will continue to cause trouble for you?"

"That stingy old woman, didn't he just steal her dessert? Why did she get so angry? And Katakuri is the same, always looking for a chance to fight with me. Even if he's not annoyed, I am."

After hearing Leo's complaint, Ah Fu smiled and said, "Your fight was hyped up by the World Economic News before. As both of you are stars of the new era, your every move is always watched by many people."

"Alas! I don't want fame or anything like that. It's all Katakuri's fault. This matter will be very troublesome later."

"Indeed, how do you plan to respond to the World Government?"

"What else can I say? Of course I refuse. We haven't done anything wrong. We can't refuse their invitation and then offer us a reward."

"Haha, that's right. Nowadays, everyone at sea knows the name of the Mobile Life Rescue Team."

Just as Leo and Afu were talking, the sound of a Den Den Mushi was suddenly heard, Bulu Bulu Kaga.

"Mobile Life Rescue Team, who is this?"

"It's me, come and save me." The Den Den Mushi turned into a man with green hair and a bruised face. The voice it made was very small, as if the other party was calling secretly.

"Who are you? Tell us your approximate location. We will search the sea area based on the location you provide."

"..." There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone. Just when Leo thought the other party was joking and was about to hang up, a roar suddenly came from the other end.

"Asshole, you really have forgotten me, haven't you? Five years, do you know how I have been living these five years?"

Leo was also stunned by the other party's shouting. It seemed that the other party had a lot of resentment towards him. Five years? Someone I knew five years ago...

Suddenly Leo remembered something and asked the Den Den Mushi carefully, "You...you are not Tezoro, are you?"

“……” There was another silence on the other end of the phone.

Just when Leo was getting a little crazy, "Wuwuwu~ You unfaithful man, you just threw me into hell and left me alone. The Celestial Dragons are all beasts. To me, to me, wuwuwu..."

What? Leo thought, didn't you go to rescue your lover? Could it be that you were discovered by the Celestial Dragons during the rescue and then taken into the room and didn't come out all night? Thinking of that scene, Leo felt a chill. Hearing about the other party's miserable experience now, he felt a little sorry.

"I'm going to rescue you. Don't worry. Tell me the details first."

"Stella is dead, woooo."

……

"What happened? Where's the liquid metal I gave you? You used the key to free the slaves, created a riot, and planned to escape. Didn't you act according to the plan?"

"I dare not. If I fail, I will be tortured to death."

Everyone looked at each other as they gathered around the Den Den Mushi, and they all thought in their hearts that Tesoro was such a coward.

To be honest, Leo didn't want to care about him anymore. What's the point of having a chess piece that doesn't even dare to risk its life? "I gave you the opportunity, but you are useless. You want to save people from the Celestial Dragons, but you are afraid of this and that. It's strange that you can succeed."

"Please help me again. I want revenge. I want all the Celestial Dragons to die."

Leo curled his lips. Others don't know what's wrong with you, but we have seen the Golden City animation. Thinking of Tesoro's future look, Leo didn't want to help him from the bottom of his heart, but this was a rare opportunity to cause trouble for the Celestial Dragons, so Leo had to hold back his disgust and intend to carry out the plan.

"Okay, I'll help you once more. But if you're a coward again this time, our agreement will be void. I need to make some plans. Tezulo, you better be careful during this time."

"Okay, okay, I'll do anything you ask me to do as long as I can escape from here. Thank you."

Kaga hung up the phone. A rough plan had already formed in his mind, and he immediately asked everyone to gather in the conference room.

……

He spread out the topographic map of the Red Earth Continent on the table. This was a map he had drawn based on the aerial images taken by the Flying Telephone Bug monitor. The map roughly marked the situation of Pangu City, including the area of ​​the city, the number of available escape routes, the distance between the city and the cliffs of the Red Earth Continent, and the specific height of the Red Earth Continent. Although the map was crude, it was sufficient.

Leo was wondering how to complete the rescue plan without getting himself into trouble.

After thinking seriously for a while, Leo began to assign tasks: "Will, stay in your current state and head to Water City. Don't surface after arriving. First, find a pirate group and seize the pirate ship when they leave Water City. Kill all the pirates on the ship and leave no one alive."

"Before completing this task, we must spread rumors when the other party leaves the Water City, saying that they once said that their companions were captured by the Celestial Dragons after drinking."

"After that, we will split into two groups. One of them is the induction group. They need to drive the Poseidon Soldier around Shampoodi and use holographic projection to create the illusion that all of us are there."

"This team includes Alfu, Charles, Gloria, and Will. You need to make some noise, like defeating a pirate group at sea or something like that. Try to draw other people's attention. The more witnesses we have, the safer we will be."

The second group is the rescue team. Victoria and Gloria, come with me. I need your abilities to help me save people.

Leo presented his complete plan and everyone made suggestions to improve the details. The discussion lasted until the evening, and the Poseidon quietly sailed towards the Water City in a submerged state.
