One Piece: Under the Throne

Naval Base Marinford, Marshal's Office.

Marshal Zhan Guo sat at his desk, his face terribly gloomy. He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, as if he wanted to see through everything in front of him.

"Can you explain to me what it means that Judicial Island has disappeared?" His voice was low and full of majesty, and every word carried a heavy pressure.

The soldier's legs were shaking, his teeth were chattering uncontrollably, and beads of sweat were rolling down his forehead. He swallowed hard and stammered, "Report... Report to the Marshal, for some reason all three gates of justice have opened, and the backflow of seawater has completely submerged the Judicial Island."

Sengoku frowned even more, with a flash of anger and confusion in his eyes. He slammed the table and yelled, "Where are the Straw Hat Pirates? Where are they now?"

The soldier was so frightened that he shuddered all over and said quickly: "Those pirates fled before the tsunami came."

Zhan Guo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you found out who opened the door of justice?"

The soldier shook his head, a look of horror on his face: "No, the soldiers in charge of guarding were all knocked unconscious."

Zhan Guo's expression became even uglier. He remained silent, with anger flashing in his eyes.

After a while, Sengoku suddenly issued an order: "Tell Garp to chase the Straw Hat Pirates, regardless of life or death!"

The soldier saluted and turned to leave. However, when he reached the door, Zhan Guo suddenly changed his mind.

"Wait, change killing to capturing alive." Zhan Guo waved his hand and said in a firm tone.

The soldier was slightly stunned, but immediately responded, "Yes, Marshal." Then he quickly left the office.

The office fell silent again. Sengoku leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and the image of the mysterious man kept appearing in his mind. He knew that this person must have a close relationship with the Straw Hat Pirates.

After a long time, Zhan Guo sighed deeply. He murmured to himself: "Who could it be?"

……

A few days later, although the trauma of the war had not yet healed, Luffy had returned to being the carefree and energetic Straw Hat boy he once was.

Except for the big bump on his head from the beating from Grandpa Garp not long ago, the rest of his body no longer hurt.

Luffy can continue to smile happily because the navy hero Vice Admiral Garp has let him off again. Garp has been worried about Luffy since he became a pirate. Although he always thought in his heart that Luffy was just playing a pirate game, he got into such a big trouble this time that even Garp was troubled.

"Damn Zhan Guo, he actually asked the grandfather to personally arrest his own grandson. How on earth did he say such a thing?"

Compared to the original story, the damage caused by the Straw Hat Pirates this time is obviously much greater, even covering up the mistake of Spandam pressing the wrong Golden Den Den Mushi to launch the Demon Slaying Order.

The most direct change is that the bounty for all members of the Straw Hat Pirates has skyrocketed.

Pirate Hunter Zoro, bounty of 1 million.

Thousand-armed Witch Nico Robin, reward of 1 million.

It is still the hand-drawn bounty for Blackfoot Sanji, with a reward of 9600 million.

Sniper King (Usopp), bounty 6000 million.

The little thief cat is looking for a marriage photo... ahem, a reward of 3500 million.

Pet Chopper, reward 50 Baileys (only allowed to be captured alive).

Perverted boatman Fram, reward of 5500 million berries.

The most exaggerated one is Luffy, with a bounty of 4 million Baileys.

After this battle, the bounties of all the Straw Hat Pirates members were greatly increased compared to the original work, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles.

Leo flipped through the wanted posters in his hand with great interest, and finally stopped his gaze on Robin and Nami's wanted posters. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was a hint of curiosity and anticipation in his eyes.

He carefully examined the wanted poster and couldn't help but sigh: "The photographers in the navy are really good at taking candid photos. This wanted poster looks like a marriage proposal photo. The nickname of the Thousand-Handed Witch is too childish! She is obviously an intellectual beauty. Wouldn't it be better to call her Dr. Pirate or Ancient Scholar?"

Leo suddenly turned his head to look at Aokiji behind him and asked in a teasing tone: "Right? Aokiji."

"Ah la la, it turns out I've been discovered a long time ago." Aokiji responded with a smile.

Leo smiled slightly, "I'm not blind. The aura of a strong man emanating from you is as dazzling as the sun within the range of your observation Haki."

The two talked across a wall, and the atmosphere between them was relaxed and friendly. Leo continued to look through the bounties of other members, while evaluating the strength and characteristics of each member.

Aokiji listened quietly, occasionally expressing his own opinions. The conversation between the two was full of humor and wit, as if they were two old friends chatting.

However, the relationship between them is not so simple. Although they seem to be casual on the surface, they actually hide a subtle competition and confrontation.

Leo and Aokiji are both powerful beings, each representing different positions and values. Although they are not in direct conflict now, they may stand on opposite sides one day in the future.

……

The Straw Hat Pirates' big party lasted for a day and a night. Luffy spent all the money they had to buy a boat, which almost killed him. In the end, it was only when Iceberg promised to give them a boat that the beautiful little thief gave up.

Thanks to the efforts of a group of excellent shipbuilders, the new ship was built in just half a month. After some discussion, Iceberg finally named it Thousand Sunshine.

Having accomplished their purpose in Water City, the Straw Hat Pirates are about to set sail again to challenge an unknown adventure.

The night before departure, Iceberg found Luffy and begged him to take Fram with him to go out to sea.

"Luffy, please take Fram with you. He feels really bad for not being able to save Teacher Tom. I'm afraid he'll be crippled if he continues to sink like this."

For Luffy, this suggestion was like someone handing him a pillow when he was sleepy. There was no boatman in the team at that moment, and they couldn't let Usopp, the repairman, play guest role all the time.

Of course Luffy wouldn't think so much. He believed that since Fram had fought with them a long time ago, he was a partner they could trust with life and death, so he agreed to Iceberg's request without even thinking about it.

The next morning, the sun shines on the sea, making it sparkle. The Straw Hat Pirates are ready to set sail on their new ship, Thousand Sunny.

The shore was filled with people seeing them off, and the Straw Hat Pirates set sail amidst laughter.

But before they could get far, a dog-headed warship caught up with them. Garp held a loud speaker and seemed to be persuading Luffy and the others to give up resistance, but in fact he was urging them to leave quickly.

Luffy is still waiting for Usopp's apology.

Leo and Tom watched from afar as Cap and his grandson played the game of intercepting cannonballs.

"Don't you want to say your final goodbye to your disciples?"

Tom shook his head and said seriously, "As long as we are still alive, we will meet again one day. My current identity is not suitable for appearing in front of everyone."

Leo shook his head and said nothing, watching the Sunshine disappear into the sky.
