Comic series: Starting from Pirates to Cultivate the True Self

Only after hearing Luffy's self-introduction did Crocos truly put down the book in his hand and carefully looked at the boy who was calling out to him.

The surname Monkey is not common on the sea, and it has a D added to it. He is the one who accompanied the Pirate King Roger to land on the Final Island, so he naturally understands the meaning of having a D in his surname.

And the straw hat on this boy’s head couldn’t be more familiar.

So he smiled at Luffy and said:

"Thank you for your kindness, but I am old and don't want to move anymore."

Although Crocos rejected Luffy's invitation, he was still kind enough to explain to them some navigation knowledge that they needed to pay attention to when sailing on the Grand Line, and thoughtfully gave them a recording pointer.

Crooks stood on the shore, watching the pirate ship set sail again, muttering to himself:

"Roger, is this the pirate group you are waiting for?

A man with extraordinary powers who will change the world?"

For some reason, a handsome man's face involuntarily appeared in Kurokus' mind at this moment. He sighed and said:

"I hope you little guys don't run into him!"

...

...

On the voyage to the Sabaody Archipelago, Nami used her perfect bargaining skills to buy a newspaper at a low price from the Newsbird.

The news bird was helpless, dropped two latest bounties, and flew away with a sigh.

It probably wanted to complain to its companions. After working for so many years, this was the first time it had to bargain when buying a newspaper.

Nami picked up the two bounty notices on the deck and looked at them carefully, then shouted loudly:

"Hey! Luffy, Zoro! You've got a bounty on your head!"

In an instant, several people on the Merry appeared on the deck and surrounded Nami to look at the bounty list.

After Luffy compared his bounty with Zoro's, he instantly lost all color, fell to his knees in a grayish-white color, and said with a hurt look on his face:

"Why is my bounty not as high as Zoro's~~"

But Zoro was not happy either, and started to roar loudly at the bounty:

"Hey! What kind of bullshit excuse is this! When did I ever flirt with a female naval officer!!!"

Nami didn't say anything, but just moved a few steps to the side with a look of disgust, trying to stay as far away from Zoro as possible.

Usopp covered his mouth and laughed secretly, and couldn't help but sneered:

"Although it is a matter of pride to have a bounty on a pirate, I don't envy your reason for having a bounty at all!"

Sanji pointed at Zoro's nose angrily and shouted:

"I told you that you are no good, look! Your flirting with girls has even been reported in the newspapers!"

"Slutty cook! Say it again if you dare, do you want to die?"

"Come on! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

......

Luffy and his crew then continued sailing noisily, and met two giant pirates, Touri and Broki, in a small garden, and established friendship with them.

But Nami fell ill. In order to save her life, they went to the Drum Island, which is known as the "Medical Kingdom".

There they harvested a pet reindeer who worked part-time as a ship's doctor, Tony Tony Chopper!

Of course, the former brutal king of Magnetic Drum Island, Walpo, had already been overthrown by the revolution.

Luffy and his crew then came to the Kingdom of Alabasta, the home of Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

As soon as they landed in the "Oasis City" Eruma, they saw a huge duck carrying a beautiful girl with long gray-blue hair running towards them.

"help me!"

After Luffy and Zoro looked at each other, they immediately turned their heads to look at Nami. They felt that this scene was extremely familiar.

"grumble!"

At this time, a huge falcon in the sky landed in front of everyone and transformed into a man with a pale face and oil paint on the corners of his eyes.

"Hand over the girl behind you!"

As Sanji walked out of the crowd, he lowered his head and lit the cigarette in his mouth. He blew a big smoke ring towards the man in front of him and said seriously:

"As a gentleman, how can you remain indifferent to a beautiful lady's request for help!"

Seeing this, the painted man said nothing more, drew his sword and attacked Sanji.

"brisket!"

Sanji kicked the blade of the opponent's long sword, then took the opportunity to fly up a little, and spun one leg to kick the opponent's neck fiercely.

"Shourou SHOOT!"

The painted man stretched out his left arm to block his neck. Although he was not hit in vital parts, he was still kicked sideways several meters away by Sanji's powerful kick.

His body in the air instantly turned into a monster with a falcon's head and a human body. His two hands turned into eagle claws, and a pair of wings grew behind him. He flew up a little distance.

Then it spun and swooped down, extending a sharp claw and swooping down towards Sanji.

Sanji was not afraid of the attack from the painted man. He jumped in the air and kicked the attacking eagle claw.

"boom!"

After a loud bang, both of them were blown away by the rebound force of the collision.

...

...

After they separated, the painted man did not continue to attack. He found that he could not easily defeat the man in a suit with curly eyebrows in front of him, and this man also had a group of friends.

So he looked at Sanji and his group and asked:

"Who are you?"

Usopp saw that the time to show off had come, so he immediately came out and said arrogantly:

"Since you asked sincerely, I will mercifully tell you that we are pirates with a high bounty!"

The oil-painted man was stunned when he heard that, then he looked at Luffy and the others carefully, and then he quickly compared the group of people in front of him with those long-famous pirates in his mind, but found that none of them matched.

I immediately understood that they were just a bunch of petty thieves who were bragging.

So he shouted coldly:

"Do you know whose territory this is? Do you know the identity of the girl you kidnapped?"

Luffy and the others looked at each other in bewilderment after being yelled at.

Kidnapping???

Seeing that no one spoke, the painted man thought that he had successfully controlled their momentum, and then continued proudly:

"This is the territory of Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the girl behind you is the princess of this kingdom.

If you don’t want to die, release the princess immediately, and I will not report you and will let you escape to the sea.”

At this time, the blue-haired girl who had been hiding behind Luffy and the others walked out of the crowd and said to the painted man:

"Peru, it's none of their business. They didn't kidnap me. I don't want to go back with you! I want to travel! I want to have an adventure on the sea!"

"Your Highness! You can't be so willful, you..."

Before Peru could finish his words, the flower protector Sanji interrupted him directly.

"Hey! I still don't quite understand what's going on here! But as a gentleman you should respect the lady's choice.

This beautiful lady doesn't want to go with you, so I will protect her freedom to the end!"

Luffy also stood up and said:

"Yes! That's right! My uncle said that we should not restrict our children's freedom to pursue their dreams!

It’s wrong to be like this! If you don’t leave, I will beat you up!!!”

"Okay, okay! Just wait for me!"

After Peru finished speaking angrily, he transformed into a falcon and soared into the sky.
