Luffy Died When He Set Sail, And At The Beginning, I Become The Sun God?

The battle in the cafeteria has come to an end.

The two assassins who rushed over were defeated by Nami and Vivi. They are now tied up and being guarded by Bartolomeo.

Usopp is bandaging Ikarim's wounds.

"Your body is really tough, curly-haired old man."

"Cough... I used to be the captain of the Alabasta Royal Guard. These injuries won't kill me."

Ikarim's face is slightly pale.

Nami is fiddling with the recording pointer she snatched from Miss Valentine. Unlike the permanent pointer she wears, this new pointer is actually storing magnetism, and the magnetic needle inside the glass ball is slightly shaking.

"How long does it take to store the magnetism?"

"The time varies depending on the island. Some only take a few hours, while others may take a year."

Ikarim explains, "Here, it will probably be fully charged by seven or eight in the evening."

"Is that so? That's good," Nami nods.

It's hard to imagine what would happen if it took a year. Luffy definitely doesn't have that patience.

"By the way, what were those two animals just now?" she curiously asks Vivi.

"They are the Unlucky Duo... They are the punishment agents and messengers of the Baroque Works. They will probably report the information here to the boss, and then new assassins will come."

Joseph knocks his fist against his palm, suddenly realizing, "So, Nami, they will bring your portrait back, and you will be targeted too."

Nami is not happy at all, "Why didn't you say that earlier! If I had known, I would have knocked them down!"

Being targeted by a Shichibukai right after entering the Grand Line is really unlucky!

She throws herself into Nefertari Vivi's arms, seeking comfort with a sad expression.

Her sister, Nefertari Vivi, can't help but smile and pat her head, comforting her, "It's okay, we have Luffy, so everything will be fine."

Luffy's face is full of teasing as he jokes, "Crocodile's bounty was 81 million before he became a Shichibukai, but that was over twenty years ago. Now, without considering his Shichibukai title, his bounty would be close to 2 billion."

Pausing for a moment, he adds, "Don't worry, he's not as powerful as the 3.5 billion bounty Hawkeye. You might be able to win, Nami."

Upon hearing this, Nami angrily pinches Luffy's cheek, "Why are you so happy about this!"

Scared? Not at all. With Luffy by her side, she doesn't even know the meaning of fear!

Having a reliable man by her side is what gives her confidence!

2 billion? The rest of the Straw Hat crew feels a sense of urgency.

For Luffy, maybe he can fight, and they all believe that Luffy can win.

But what about themselves? They can't keep hiding behind the captain all the time. They must find a way to become stronger!

At this moment, Ikarim staggers to his feet, plops down, and kneels in front of Luffy.

"Ikarim!" Vivi is shocked.

"Luffy-sama! I have already heard from Princess Vivi about your situation. I have an earnest request!"

Ikarim bows his head to the ground, showing his utmost respect.

For Alabasta, for the ten million citizens, for King Cobra, even if it means kneeling or sacrificing his life, he will not hesitate to do so.

The Straw Hat crew members exchange glances and all look at Luffy.

Luffy smiles and says, "Kneeling is worthless. Don't think I will give up on my claim. Your princess ate my food."

"No, if it's compensation, we will find a way to satisfy you."

Ikarim doesn't lift his head and speaks solemnly, "You are Vice Admiral Garp's grandson. I would like to ask you to contact the Naval Headquarters and explain to the higher-ups what has happened in Alabasta!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy raises an eyebrow and looks at Vivi.

Vivi clenches her teeth and says, "Luffy-san, I have seriously considered it. I can't let you all get involved in danger and risk your lives fighting Crocodile. I want to try again..."

Naive little princess...

Luffy secretly rolls his eyes. He had made it clear before that it's pointless to find the Marines, but she still doesn't believe it.

"I suggest you find the Five Elders instead. The Shichibukai and the Marines are the two major institutions under the World Government. Although the Shichibukai cooperate with the Marines, it's not uncommon for them to act on their own. Not to mention that the Marines want to take action against a Shichibukai without the government's orders, it's impossible."

The military cannot have their own thoughts. If the Marines dare to act against the Shichibukai, the Five Elders will definitely hold them accountable afterwards. Even if they have sufficient reasons, it's a red line that cannot be crossed.

Without orders, don't make decisions for the government on your own!

Are you the boss, or is it a problem with my boss? It's a matter of core interest for the World Government, and there's no room for compromise.

As for overthrowing a country as a Shichibukai? Compared to this, that's a small issue.

Similarly, if the Marines want to take action against a pirate crew at the level of the Four Emperors, they also need the government's orders. It's not like Sengoku can just decide on a whim to fight Whitebeard today and go after Kaido tomorrow.

"Can you contact the Five Elders?"

Ikarim looked up suddenly, filled with excitement.

Although Alabasta is also a member of the World Government alliance, even King Cobra himself only has the opportunity to meet the Five Elders during the World Summit.

"(bbcg)......"

Luffy had no words to respond.

Why are these high-ranking officials so naive?

"Just forget what I said earlier."

Shaking his head, Luffy gave up on explaining to them.

Come to think of it, it might be even more troublesome to involve the Five Elders.

After all, Vivi's ancestor, a queen named Lily, had a history of conflict with the true master of the World Government, Im.

"Since you all want to try..."

With this in mind, Luffy took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket and dialed a number.

After a moment.

"Grandpa, it's me."

"Luffy?!"

The Den Den Mushi imitated the expression of the person on the other end of the call, looking completely shocked.

Then he laughed and said, "Hahaha, you miss grandpa after just two or three days?"

"Grandpa, tell me Sengoku's contact number. I have something to discuss with him."

Luffy didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

The expressions of the people gradually became subtle.

Why does this scene feel so strange... a pirate asking for the contact information of a Vice Admiral at Marine Headquarters, and saying that he has something to discuss with the Fleet Admiral.

"Hahaha, it's amusing no matter how many times I see it." Zoro couldn't help but laugh.

Garp scratched his head on the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

Luffy wants to find Sengoku?

What a mess!

"You stupid grandson! What nonsense are you talking about? How could a pirate like you get the contact number of the Fleet Admiral!"

The Den Den Mushi sprayed Luffy with saliva. "Listen, I don't know what you're up to, but don't do anything out of line!"

"Got it, I'm just trying to do a good deed." Luffy took a step back with a disgusted look on his face. "So what's the number?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end before a grunt came through. "You brat, you better not be thinking of something weird. Don't let me catch you next time!"

Then, he recited a string of numbers and hung up.

Such a tsundere old man.

Luffy smiled and immediately dialed Sengoku's contact number.

Vivi and Ikarim were dumbfounded.

The higher-ups in the Marines... this is too high, reaching the level of Fleet Admiral!

No, no wonder he's Vice Admiral Garp's grandson!!

Thinking this, the Den Den Mushi connected again, and a deep voice came from the other end.

"Who is this?"

"It's Luffy, good afternoon, Fleet Admiral." Luffy greeted, "No, it's evening over there, right? Good evening, Yonsho."

Sengoku:

Naval Headquarters, Fleet Admiral's office.

Sengoku was dumbfounded.

Luffy?

A little brat who became a pirate actually called him?

No, more importantly, how does this kid have his number?

Garp!

You bastard, how dare you leak something like this!

"What's the matter?" Sengoku's forehead formed a cross.

"Princess of Alabasta is looking for you."

Luffy handed the Den Den Mushi to Vivi, saying, "Go ahead and talk, but I advise you not to expect anything."

"Thank you very much, Lord Luffy. Alabasta will never forget your kindness!"

Vivi happily took the Den Den Mushi, and Igaram also looked hopeful.

"Admiral Sengoku, I am Nefertari Vivi. My father is Nefertari Cobra, the king of Alabasta." She switched to princess mode and began her self-introduction.

On the other side, Sengoku couldn't help but frown.

Alabasta... It is one of the world's most advanced civilizations, with a population in the tens of millions and a long history.

"Princess Vivi, what's the matter?"

"Well..."

Vivi's small hand holding the Den Den Mushi trembled slightly as she reported Crocodile's evil deeds to the top brass of the Marines.

After listening, Sengoku's frown deepened.

"I know about this matter. I will arrange for people to investigate Alabasta. You can explain the situation in detail to them later. Now, please give the Den Den Mushi to that kid."

Vivi was stunned for a moment, unable to help but be a little dazed.

Luffy took the Den Den Mushi and said, "What can I do for you, Admiral?"

"You've caused a lot of trouble in East Blue, and you've given me a lot of headaches."

"You're welcome, Admiral." Luffy smiled and said, "We're all family. If you want to give me an 'Advanced Pirate' medal, I wouldn't mind."

Who said we're family? Don't get too familiar with me!

Sengoku's mouth twitched, and he coldly snorted, "There better not be a next time. If there's a similar situation, report it directly to your grandfather!"

It was just a matter of a few words, but he had to go and kill two Marine colonels without authorization.

This made the Marines very passive.

Sengoku, who was getting more and more annoyed as he thought about it, didn't bother to waste any more words and hung up directly.

Luffy couldn't help but mutter to himself. If he reported it, he would have to go to the Marine court. He bet those two wouldn't die.

As for Mr. 2, he could let it go. He had to kill that rat, otherwise, he would be letting Nami down.

"Disappointed?"

Luffy looked up at the stunned Vivi and said, "Did you think that by making a phone call, a Marine Admiral would come? They will definitely send people to investigate first and gather solid evidence..."

"Will an Admiral come afterwards?" Vivi's eyes were hopeful.

Luffy shook his head, "Afterwards, the Marines will explain the situation to the World Government, and then it will be up to the government to decide whether to arrest Crocodile."

Will they arrest him?

Luffy didn't know. He wasn't one of the Five Elders, so he couldn't guess what those five old men were thinking.

"Even if they want to arrest Crocodile, a Marine Admiral won't come. The most likely scenario is... another Shichibukai will come to deal with it."

Luffy suddenly thought of something.

What if he mentioned the "Pluton" thing? The World Government would definitely be very anxious, and the Marine Admiral might take action. Crocodile would be finished.

But then, Alabasta would be targeted.

At that time, they could come up with a reason to protect Alabasta, and the government would send the spy agency CPO to secretly obtain Pluton.

No... That's not right. A smarter approach would be to not solve the Crocodile problem right away, and even use it to their advantage until the very end, when they would step forward and claim victory, taking the fruit and seizing Pluton.

How sinister!

It's definitely something the Five Elders would do!

Naval Headquarters.

After cutting off communication, Sengoku immediately called for Tsuru.

"Crocodile is subverting the government in Alabasta and trying to steal the country's power."

Vice Admiral Crane sat on the sofa and couldn't help shaking his head when he heard the words: "Doflamingo did something similar back then, and he succeeded. Sengoku, what do you think we should do?"

"He was hailed as a 'hero' by the people in Alabasta." Sengoku's face turned serious. "First, we need sufficient evidence before I can present the seriousness of the situation to the Five Elders."

Pausing for a moment, he asked, "Who is currently near Alabasta?"

Crane pondered for a moment.

"Hina of the 'Black Cage'."

Cactus Island, Whisky Peak.

"Is all we can do just wait?"

Vivi sighed.

After a while, she finally accepted this outcome.

Seeing her sad expression, Nami gently patted her head.

"What are you saying? By the time the Marines make a move, it'll be too late. Don't forget, your identity has been exposed, and I've also been targeted!"

"Nami... I'm sorry."

Vivi held her head, feeling complicated.

"Although the scale may be different, my hometown has also experienced similar things!"

Nami hugged Vivi with enthusiasm. "Don't worry, Vivi! Before, Luffy and the others helped me, and this time, we will help you too!"

They've only been together for a day or two, and their relationship is already so good...

Luffy muttered to himself.

"Thank you, Nami!" Vivi was deeply moved.

"Of course, once we deal with Crocodile, the reward will be 1 billion!"

Hmm, it's the Nami I know, no doubt about it!

Luffy smiled. "Let's hear everyone's opinions for now."

"Luffy, your decision is the will of all of us." Zoro grinned. "If we defeat a Shichibukai, we'll definitely become stronger."

"Please rest assured, Miss Vivi. Your knight, Sanji, will protect your safety!"

"I... I agree, of course. As brave warriors of the sea, what is a mere Shichibukai? Luffy, leave it to you!"

Usopp nervously uttered embarrassing words.

"Ah, you're really full of energy."

Suddenly, a pleasant and charming female voice sounded.

The voice carried a sense of playfulness and joy.

Everyone's gaze turned towards the cafeteria window.

There, a tall woman sat leisurely, crossing her legs, resting her elbow on her knee, supporting her chin with one hand. Her exquisite eyes curved like a crescent moon, and the corners of her mouth were filled with a charming smile.

She wore a purple denim hat, a purple cropped jacket that revealed her belly button, a purple pencil skirt, and a pair of purple knee-high boots.

Luffy looked at her and remembered another woman and a famous line.

A secret makes a woman woman!

The woman in front of him gave off that kind of feeling, a mysterious and elegant female image.

"Miss All Sunday!" Vivi trembled all over and gritted her teeth as she uttered the opponent's code name.

Nami was surprised. "Who is her partner this time?"

"It must be Crocodile," Zoro guessed, his hand already gripping the hilt of his sword.

Everyone felt a sense of impending danger.

Usopp took out his slingshot, Bartolomeo gestured to activate his ability, Johnny and Yosaku stood up one after another.

Even Sanji, who usually had a crush on women, had a slightly serious expression.

"Don't be so nervous, I'm not here to kill you."

The woman smiled slightly, her eyes shifting, her smile undiminished.

"Then why are you here? Answer me, Miss All Sunday!" Vivi's voice was high-pitched, full of hostility.

"I found some helpers, Miss Wednesday. I'm glad." The woman's right hand, supporting her chin, lightly swayed, tapping her cheek.

The mysterious woman's smile grew even more pronounced.

"After all, I deliberately let you track me so that you could find out the true identity of the BOSS~"
