Taoist priest, who is so popular in One Piece

"Hey, hey, is today a party?"

The moment he saw the silver-haired old man, Huang Mu had no intention of taking anyone away.

If Zefa's appearance at peak strength was already beyond his expectations, then this man's arrival left him with only one thought.

"I have no intention of fighting you now. It's not the right time yet."

Huangmu in the air raised his hands and looked at Zefa and the other two who were surrounding him in a humble manner.

"I'll leave now."

After saying this, Huang Mu suddenly turned around and fled into the distance.

He didn't think there was anything shameful about this kind of thing. It was shameful to escape but it could save his life.

At the same time, the big bear next to Zefa lowered his head and said a few words to him, then clapped his hands downward and chased in the direction where Huangmu escaped.

Suddenly, only Zefa and the silver-haired old man were left on the island.

"You really make me miss you like this, Zefa."

The silver-haired old man felt a little emotional when he saw Zefa's powerful energy that had not yet disappeared.

"You caused us quite a bit of trouble back then. Roger also often talked about wanting to have a good fight with you, hahahaha."

Although Garp and his two main brothers had their own goals back then, it does not mean that they have never fought against other pirates.

Times have changed. The pirates and navy of the old era have retired, and when the two meet again, it feels like everything has changed.

When people get old, they like to reminisce about the past.

"You haven't changed at all, Rayleigh."

Similar to the navy, the Liaoyuan Army also adopted a gentle attitude towards these old-era pirates who were almost extinct, and did not issue any orders for their forced arrest.

So Zefa took the opportunity to chat with Rayleigh.

"If that idiot Garp hadn't chased after you, I would have captured you and taken you to Impel Down."

After saying this, the two looked at each other for a moment and then both burst into laughter.

After countless years of fighting, they have already formed a bond called friendship.

The two walked side by side towards the Kingdom of Women, clamoring to demonstrate a few moves along the way.

But I don’t know if they were afraid of losing, but in the end the two of them didn’t fight.

When they were almost there, Zefa thought of a question:

"Why are you here?"

In response, Rayleigh simply gestured to the front: "I've been asked to do this."

At this moment, in the slightly dilapidated daughter's house, Grandma New was standing in front of a woman with a rage on her face.

"I thought you would leave us to die without helping us. Fortunately, you still know your identity."

"Now that you're here, don't leave. Hancock will be away for a long time this time. With you and Rayleigh here, it won't be a problem even if another big enemy attacks."

...

"Are you listening to me?"

Granny New was furious: "You've been out there long enough. Do you still want to continue at this age? Don't forget that you were once the king of this country!"

Unexpectedly, after Grandma New said this, the woman in purple clothes put down her crossed legs and looked at her unfriendlyly.

"This age? I'm still young."

Granny Niu took two steps back, then shouted angrily, "Xia Qi!!!"

Long before Granny Niu sent people to ask for help from the Liaoyuan Army, she had already informed Xia Qi.

Because of the special circumstances of the Sabaody Archipelago, Xia Qi and Rayleigh also opened the Rip-Off Bar on an island near the Kingdom of Women.

That's why they could arrive so quickly.

As for Xia Qi's identity, she was indeed the King of the Kingdom of Women after Grandma Niu, that is, the former former king.

Rayleigh and Shakey also taught the three Hancock sisters who escaped from Marijoa.

"Oh?"

Zefa seemed to understand something when he saw the scene in front of him:

"Rayleigh, you old man, are you and Xia Qi..."

"Lieutenant General Zefa, why do you like gossip now that you're old?" Xia Qi interrupted Zefa.

Rayleigh on the side said seriously: "The old man likes young women."

In response to this, Zefa said:

"Hahahaha!"

-

"Did anyone ever tell you that you look ugly when you smile? Idiot."

In a tavern on an island somewhere in the New World, Bartolomeo was looking at the invitation in his hand and laughing, but was suddenly choked by a voice.

"what?"

Bartolomeo looked in the direction of the voice with unfriendly eyes. Although he is now the leader of the adventure group Barto Club, this guy was once a gang leader.

After seeing who was coming, Bartolomeo was instantly excited:

"You idiot, are you following me?"

Cavendish, still as elegant as a gentleman, responded:

"Are you an idiot? We took the same route after we came out of the Golden City."

After saying this, Cavendish also saw the invitation in Bartolomeo's hand:

"Tsk, so they really invited the adventure group?"

"Let's go together, Barto."

Cavendish extends an invitation to Bartolomeo.

"Huh? Why should I listen to you?"

Barto flicked the booger he had just picked out towards Cavendish, looking unhappy.

"Because I have the same goal as you."

Cavendish dodged his booger and said elegantly, "You idiot, you're not going for Pirate King Roger's treasure hunt at all."

"Eh?!"

Hearing Cavendish's words, Bartolomeo showed a look of understanding on his face.

He put his hand on Cavendish's shoulder and said excitedly:

"As expected, once you have seen the elegance of our seniors, even someone like you will be impressed."

"Hahahahahahaha, you're pretty good, rotten vegetable head."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't rub your hands on my clothes just now!!!"

The next second, the two of them started fighting in the tavern, just like a fight between children.

Gambia on the other side couldn't help but sigh when seeing this scene.

"Sure enough, the next thing should be left to me."

"Call grandma before you leave. The method she told me last time about using ice cubes to melt the gum stuck on the deck is quite effective."

"This time, we must help."

-

"Shall we go too, Captain?"

A voice rang out from a ship docked at another island port.

The owner of the voice is very young, probably a teenager.

But his strength is not as weak as it seems.

After all, this little boy is the strongest person in the Nirvana Adventure Group.

And above his bare right arm, there is a pattern that resembles a phoenix.

At this moment, he was looking at the man in front of him and asked:

"Even if we receive an invitation, there is no need to attend. It is a pirate festival."

The man called the Captain was a dignified middle-aged man.

He was wearing a brand new black uniform and his eyes were like those of an eagle.

Below his collar, he had the same pattern as the little boy.

It seems that this is the symbol of this adventure group.

There were nearly a hundred people surrounding these two people, and the configuration was somewhat strange.

Unlike most adventure groups formed by young men, this adventure group, which was the first to receive the gold title from the Adventurer's Association, includes both old and young, male and female, and can be described as a hodgepodge.

And judging from their appearance, they seemed to be from different islands in the ocean.

In addition to the phoenix pattern on everyone's body, the most striking feature of this adventure group is the determination on everyone's face.

It was like going through endless suffering and finally crawling back from the edge of hell.

The captain looked at everyone and said in a deep voice:

"If we only look at ourselves, there is really no need to attend this Expo."

“But there’s a reason why I made this decision.”

"We may very well meet our benefactor at this Expo."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone became excited.

The little boy jumped up and down: "Yes! They will definitely not miss this World Expo."

The captain raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down, and then said: "Yes, although it is just a guess, even if there is only a one percent possibility, it is enough to be a reason for us to set off."

"And according to Mr. Brad's guess, this World Expo doesn't seem to be as simple as it seems."

Brad is the oldest man on the ship and also the think tank of the ship.

He took a few steps toward the center and said:

"Whether it's the Cross Union that's being held or the people participating in the Expo, it seems like there's a lot of conspiracy going on."

"According to my guess, Benefactor and his people have caused so many troubles in the sea before, they are likely to be targeted at this World Expo."

“They dare!!!”

When the little boy heard this, he immediately waved his fist angrily: "I will beat up anyone who dares to deal with my benefactor!"

Hearing such childish words, everyone on the boat laughed good-naturedly.

The captain even touched the boy's head, then looked at everyone with a serious face and said:

"Lucas is right. Our only purpose in going to the Expo this time is to stop anyone who dares to attack our benefactor."

Having said this, the man paused.

"However, even with our strength, we will encounter strong enemies and even face death on that battlefield."

"I'm not afraid of death!"

Before the captain finished speaking, the boy shouted loudly, fearing that he was shouting too slowly.

"Hahaha, isn't this a matter of course?"

The man with the big knife on his shoulder laughed.

"We are people who have returned from hell. What does death mean to us?"

A woman with a charming figure and scars on her face was trimming her nails.

"That's right, the worst that can happen is death!"

"That's right, when it comes to the courage to face death, I've never been afraid of anyone!"

...

Countless voices rang out, but they all expressed the same meaning.

"Hahahaha!"

The captain laughed heartily: "Yes, we are prepared to die this time!"

He pulled out an eternal pointer with the words "Celebration Island" engraved on it from his bosom and handed it to the navigator beside him.

"Nirvana Adventure Team, set off!!!"

"Oh!!!"

And in the past few days, similar things have been happening on the sea.

-

"The Tonta Adventure Group is setting off!" "Okay, Captain Leo!!!"

A ship with a strange flag flying left the island's port.

-

"Ahahahaha, in that case, then you can try your luck at the Pirate Expo. Our friends won't miss this feast."

On a super-large ship, a giant's big hand was holding a trembling Den Den Mushi.

After hearing the voice coming from the other side, the owner of the big hand nodded and said:

"I understand, Senior Broki. But are you and Senior Dongli really not going back? Elder Aruru really hopes that you two can return home after what happened in Elbaf."

"Ahahahaha, there's nothing I can do. Dong Li and I have an agreement about being manly!"

Broki laughed. "As for the matter of Elbaf, let's leave it to our friends. They will definitely agree to help."

"However, those who dared to invade Elbaf, Donli and I will go find them soon."

At this moment, the sound of a volcanic eruption seemed to be heard from the Den Den Mushi.

"That's it, Helding."

The voice fell and the Den Den Mushi hung up.

At this time, the giant on the ship also stood up.

He has a sturdy body even for a giant, has a brown-black beard, and wears a metal helmet and goggles.

He was wearing metal arm armor that looked quite terrifying.

All he was wearing was a pair of black shorts and a pair of brown and black boots.

It was Helding, also known as the Giant Mercenary.

At this time, he also ordered his men: "Follow the direction of the eternal pointer and move forward."

-

"Momomomo, you seem very close to there, my son."

Katakuri listened to the sound of the Den Den Mushi and seemed to have gotten used to that gentle tone.

"It's not far, Mother."

The clever Katakuri had already guessed what Big Mom was thinking, so he said directly: "Do you want me to grab Roger's treasure and give it to you, Mom?"

"Momomomo, you are worthy of being my most beloved son, Katakuri."

After hearing what Big Mom said, Katakuri rarely...blushed?

"But I don't care about Roger's treasure."

Big Mom's next words denied Katakuri's idea:

"The Straw Hat Pirates will definitely go to that place as well. Bring back Jinbei's head as a gift for your mother, okay? My dear son."

Katakuri said seriously: "I understand, Mom! Even if it costs me everything, I will bring the gift back."

"Momomo, my stupid silly son!"

The aunt's voice sounded again: "Mom doesn't need you to give everything. It doesn't matter if there are no gifts. If you get into a difficult battle, just run away."

"I want to see my son come home safely more than any gift."

It has to be said that over the past few days, Carmelo has become more and more adapted to his identity.

In other words, she is no longer Carmelo, but Charlotte Linling through and through.

For the people of Charlotte's family, she truly felt the blood connection.

She was also aware that it was probably Lingling's consciousness that was causing trouble.

But for her at this moment, she does not reject it.

At this time, Katakuri seemed to have made up his mind and said to Den Den Mushi:

"Don't worry, mom, everything you want will come true!"

-

As countless ships headed towards Celebration Island, the Straw Hat Pirates seemed unaware of this.

How great his influence has become today.

Even though there is no basis for this, many people still rushed to this biggest celebration in 20 years for various reasons.
