Chapter 226: The Power of Meili (Please subscribe~)
"Boss Luffy!!! Boss Red!!!"
Not long after Zefa and Kizaru were successfully taken in, Buggy and Bartolomeo each held a box and ran over from a distance in excitement.
When they came to Red and the others, Bartolomeo took the lead and immediately asked for credit:
"Boss, look what good things we found in the ruins!!!"
While speaking, he opened the wooden box in his hand.
Although Buggy was a step slower, he also quickly kept up with the pace and opened the wooden box in his hand.
In an instant, two devil fruits appeared in front of the Straw Hat Pirates.
One looked like a cantaloupe, but the skin was a mysterious blue-purple color with spiral patterns like fishnet stockings.
The other had a similar problem, but it looked like a bunch of red bananas.
Based on the appearance alone, it was impossible to guess what abilities these two devil fruits would have.
But Akari, who had watched the anime, said: "It's the superhuman Bubble Fruit and the animal-type Bull-Bull Fruit·Giraffe Form!"
"Oh, do you know these two fruits, Akari?"
Although he could no longer eat other fruits, Luffy's face suddenly showed great interest when he saw something new.
Akari smiled mysteriously and explained to everyone the abilities that these two fruits could bring.
But after listening, the Straw Hat Pirates, who were originally looking forward to it, suddenly showed a look of disgust on their faces.
"What~ After all this time, it turns out to be two not-so-powerful devil fruits!"
Usopp, who has a current admiral and a former admiral in his body, said with disdain:
"How can one of the three major agencies under the World Government not have any decent things?"
"You can't say that~" Robin's eyes flashed, and she smiled:
"At least with the ability of the bubble fruit, we don't have to worry about not washing our clothes properly!"
"And with this fruit ability, she will definitely be a good hand at cleaning the cabin and deck!"
Good sister Nami immediately nodded in agreement: "If you only look at its auxiliary functions, it sounds like it is very suitable for Red!"
"Hey!? You two?!"
Red rolled her eyes at Nami and Robin speechlessly: "Has this fruit ability saved you money for shower gel in the future?"
"Will you still need me to guard the door for you when you take a shower in the future!"
"That's great~!" Hearing the word "saving money", Nami's eyes suddenly glowed with golden light, and she raised her hands in agreement.
Sanji, who was standing by, suddenly knelt on the ground and pounded the ground opposite him, saying in annoyance: "Damn it! Why did I eat the Speed-Speed Fruit! There are obviously abilities that are more suitable for me in this world!!!"
"Alright, alright!"
After seeing the battle, the companions immediately entered the state of playing tricks, and Red immediately waved his hand to interrupt them.
"We are not here for a spring outing."
"Take all the valuables here quickly and prepare to leave."
"Don't underestimate the power of the Navy and the World Government."
"What they have hidden has not really been revealed yet!"
While speaking, Red turned his gaze to Usopp again: "By the way, Usopp, what happened to the two giants before?"
"Are you talking about Oimo and Casey?"
Usopp was stunned for a moment, then smiled and replied:
"Don't worry, I have told them about Broki and Donli as you said!"
"They are now in the storage space in my body!"
Because of the plot in the anime as a guide, the two giants had almost no doubts and believed Usopp's words directly.
"Well, that's good!" Red nodded with satisfaction, but his eyes swept lightly over the giraffe fruit.
If the two giants could become members of the Straw Hat Fleet, and then give them some suitable fruit abilities, perhaps there would be unexpected surprises!
After all, the giants have more unique talents and abilities than ordinary humans!
But those are things for the future.
Under the command of Red, the Straw Hat Pirates and the members of the Twin Pirates quickly searched the ruins and major naval warships, and stored all the valuables in Usopp's storage space.
As a political system that has existed for 800 years, the degree of corruption inside has long exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.
In addition, Spandam himself is an extreme second-generation official who is greedy for enjoyment.
An hour later, Usopp subconsciously avoided Nami's abnormal eyes, carrying billions of Baileys in cash and jewelry, and returned to the Merry.
Uncomfortable, he took the initiative to suggest in order to get out as soon as possible:
"Hey, Luffy, Red, should we leave here!?"
"If we stay any longer, the navy's pursuers will come!"
As if reflecting Usopp's words, the moment he finished speaking...
At the end of the collapsed Bridge of Hesitation, a huge wave suddenly surged.
The closed Gate of Justice slowly opened again, as if connecting to another world. The mighty ocean current surged through the crack of the gate, carrying a huge naval warship, and descended here.
The naval hero Garp, wearing a naval cape, stood on the top of the warship, majestic and solemn.
Although he was not very interested in the departments of the World Government and had heard about what Judicial Island had done, since Xiaohe still found him to support Judicial Island after knowing all this...
It can only be said that the situation here may be worse than the headquarters imagined.
In fact, it was exactly so!
When Garp led the warship to the waters of Judicial Island majestically, what came into view was not the long-hidden battle between the legendary pirate group and the navy as he imagined.
Instead, it was a land of ruins!
The broken Bridge of Hesitation, the slowly sinking damaged warship, and the collapsed Tower of Justice...
Seeing this scene, the expression on Garp's face suddenly became uncertain.
As for the identity of the attacker, Luffy and others had been teleported back to the headquarters by the rest of the navy when they were fighting with Kizaru.
Of course, the only person who could really guess that Luffy was Garp's grandson in the entire Marineford was Tsuru.
That's why she hesitated for a long time when she sent Garp to support.
After all, they have been friends for many years.
Even Tsuru, who was the temporary marshal, felt a little reluctant to let Garp take action against his own grandson.
But looking at the mess on Judicial Island at this time, the remaining hesitation in Garp's heart disappeared instantly.
"Luffy, what did you, your bastard grandson, do behind my back!?"
Although the soldiers on Judicial Island were not as strong as the elite soldiers of the Navy Headquarters because of their long-term pampering, the number of troops on Judicial Island was not fake.
What's more...
There was also the fleet led by Zephyr and Kizaru to support.
But in this situation now, how can we still see the former glory of Judicial Island! ?
"Vice Admiral Garp! There are wounded here!"
At this moment, the shout of a navy soldier immediately attracted Garp's attention.
With the skilled actions of the navy, several navy soldiers floating on the sea holding broken wooden boards were immediately rescued.
And there are many navy soldiers like them in this sea area.
"Hu~...Hu~...Vice Admiral Garp!"
After being rescued, a navy soldier who was soaked to the bone did not take much rest at all. He ran to Garp panting and said with a look of fear:
"No...It's not good!"
"Admiral Kizaru was sunk into the sea by the Straw Hat Pirates and has not appeared yet!!!"
"Admiral Zephyr was also...defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates!!!"
"Wait wait...what are you talking about!?"
After hearing this, Garp suddenly widened his eyes in astonishment, with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"Are you sure... the people who attacked Judicial Island were the Straw Hat Pirates, and not someone else?"
Although he hadn't been back to Windmill Village for a while, he still knew Luffy's strength.
How could that kid have the power to defeat Kizaru in such a short time?
But the navy soldier who was rescued said with certainty:
"It must be the Straw Hat Pirates, Vice Admiral Garp!"
"Admiral Kizaru was thrown into the sea by the Straw Hat boy Luffy and his two crew members - Roronoa Zoro and Blackfoot Sanji."
"Oh, so it was three people?"
Although the incident was still very outrageous, it was not Luffy who defeated the Navy Admiral alone...
After experiencing the shock just now, Garp suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and accepted it.
Then he asked hurriedly: "What about Zephyr!?"
"Did he just watch Kizaru being besieged!?"
"And there were so many vice admirals and brigadiers, how could he be defeated so thoroughly!?"
"It was the vice captain of the Straw Hat Pirates!"
Garp continued to ask curious questions, and the navy soldiers immediately answered.
"Vice Captain!?" Garp frowned again in confusion, "Are you talking about that Red!?"
"That kid...didn't he look tired of training last year and hang around Makino every day!?"
"How could it be...him!?"
At this moment, Garp suddenly felt that this news was more shocking than knowing that his grandson had defeated the admiral of the navy.
Although he didn't know how much of Zephyr's current strength was still in his prime, it was impossible...to be defeated by a kid who was unarmed a year ago! ?
Countless questions lingered in Garp's not very bright mind.
But just as he was about to continue asking, he saw the navy in front of him suddenly showed a look of astonishment and pointed behind him.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Garp turned around curiously.
Then he saw a warship with a sheep's head bow flying in the air, and it was still flying higher.
"It's... it's them!"
"They haven't left yet!!!"
The navy soldier who was rescued saw this and immediately shouted in panic.
"What?" Garp looked back at him.
But the naval soldier shouted loudly:
"That's the Straw Hat Pirate Ship!"
"Look, Lieutenant General Garp! There is their pirate flag flying up there!!!"
He had just experienced a fierce battle, but when he saw the cute sheep head of the Meili, he seemed to have seen some abyss demon. His eyes instantly became vacant, and his whole person trembled with fear.
"I really scared you!" Garp murmured softly, and then his eyes suddenly focused on the Meili flying in the air.
…
…
at the same time.
On the deck of the Merry, Usopp, who had just recovered all the bugs, wiped the non-existent sweat on his face, then grinned and said:
"In this case, there will be no problem, right!?"
"No problem." Red grinned, "Thank you for your hard work, Usopp."
The next moment, he also set his sights directly on the main island of Judiciary Island below.
In this area, the sea forms a magical natural wonder comparable to Upside Down Mountain.
The entire sea surface sank straight inward in the shape of a perfect circle, like a huge hole poked out of the flat snow by a cylinder.
The roaring waves are surging and pouring into the sea below.
The main island of Judiciary Island, which is almost twice the size of the former island, is connected to the former island through a narrow channel.
"So... is this caused by the magnetic field, or is it the so-called blow from the King of Heaven?"
Looking at such a magical landscape in front of him, Chi Hong couldn't help but recall the scene in the comics he saw on Earth when Im activated the Virgin's Flame to destroy the Kingdom of Lucia.
The situation in the sea area where the Kingdom of Lulucia disappeared at that time was exactly the same as that of Judiciary Island at that time.
But compared to the ruins of the Kingdom of Lucia, Judiciary Island has another special situation...
That is, this is a city that never sleeps.
And this also proves that the location of Judiciary Island will not change the position of the sun due to the movement of the planet.
It's a pity that Chihong is only a science student and doesn't know much about geography, so he can't use the knowledge on earth to analyze this bizarre pirate world.
But fortunately, in this world, even if you don't have brains and culture, you can still make your way through brute force.
The corner of the red mouth raised.
At least judging from the current situation, his "brute force" is still very useful!
Red's eyes turned and looked at Xiao Meili who was ready.
Meili, who had transformed into a ship spirit, seemed to have a telepathic connection and forgot to look over.
For a moment, the two looked at each other and smiled.
Only Meili knows...
How important is everything Chihong has done.
If it weren't for Chihong's existence, she might still be crying in the old dock of the Seven Waters Capital at this moment, and then completely disappear in this sea area.
Thinking of this, Xiao Meili suddenly spoke and said silently:
"Thank you, Red."
Chihong also smiled and responded silently:
"You're welcome."
"Hey, hey, Chihong, the navy on the island has been withdrawn. Can we test the new strength of the Meili?!"
Luffy, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly interrupted the eye contact between Red and Merry, and said with some worry:
"If we don't test it, my grandpa will catch up soon!"
Because he had developed the Haki of seeing and hearing very early on, Luffy was extremely sensitive to Garp's aura.
Almost the moment the Door of Justice opened, he felt a familiar scent that made the back of his neck shiver.
So much so that he had to urge now.
"That's right~"
And Chi Hong, who knew Garp was powerful, nodded immediately.
"Then Xiao Meili, I'll leave it to you!"
"Let the world see...your amazing abilities!!!"
"receive!"
Little Meili saluted seriously like a soldier following orders.
And the next second, amid laughter, her figure disappeared in an instant and transformed into a boat form.
A violent buzz suddenly came from under everyone's feet, and the entire hull began to tremble.
As the founder of the New Meili, Franky heard the buzzing sound coming from the machine, and an expectant smile suddenly appeared on his face.
The other friends of the Straw Hats also showed similar expressions.
Under the expectant gaze of everyone, a mysterious energy wave suddenly gathered at the bow of the Meili.
In an instant, the whole area seemed to be quiet, and the waves surged and boiled inexplicably, as if they had received some mysterious influence.
And just when everyone was concentrating...
A figure suddenly appeared from high in the distance.
It was the naval hero Garp who came to chase Luffy and others after seeing the Merry!
"Luffy! Stop fooling around!"
Feeling the terrifying fluctuations condensed on the Meili, although Garp didn't know what it was, he had a premonition...
If that bombardment is allowed to fall, the Straw Hat Pirates will probably not be less harmful in the eyes of the World Government than the revolutionary army formed by his son.
But now the arrow is on the string and must be fired!
What's more, Luffy has never listened to his grandfather since he was a child, so he certainly won't do it now!
Boom! ! !
Before Garp could get close, a beam of energy filled with a heavy aura suddenly shot out...
"This bastard!"
Seeing this, even Garp did not dare to get any closer, and could only retreat at full speed, watching the terrifying impact that was countless times larger than the Merry...
Covering the entire main island of Judicial Island!
Time, at this moment, was still.
