Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 351 The bond between Vegapunk (asking for monthly pass~)

Peng! ! !
Holy Land Marie Joa.

In the large conference room of the Five Elder Stars, Saint Satan suddenly slammed his palm on the table, an expression of great anger on his face.

"The damn Straw Hat Pirates have actually grown to this point!?"

"We must send troops immediately. We must not let these guys who challenged the authority of the World Government continue to survive!"

"That's right!"

The five bald elders immediately nodded in response.

Thinking back to Lord Im's horrified reaction when he learned that Mary Geoise was attacked a few months ago, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Don’t be fooled by their high positions and power; they can manipulate the whole world with just a flick of their fingers.

But in front of Im, they were nothing more than worms whose lives were controlled at will.

In some ways, they are different from other people.

At least other people still have the thoughts and actions to resist them.

However, they did not dare to even have the slightest thought that would harm Im.

"There is no need to discuss this matter any further! Mobilize all forces immediately and gather at the Wan Guo Sea!"

"This time, we must capture the Straw Hat Pirates and their remnants in one fell swoop!"

The five golden elders made the final tone:

"For this reason, I feel it is necessary for us to personally participate in this battle."

"agree!"

"agree!"

"agree!"

"agree!"

Four quick voices of approval rang out in succession, and the eyes of all the Five Elder Stars instantly burst into raging anger.

Because no one can guarantee that if the mission fails again, Lord Yim will not blame them for the loss of face.

them……

I don’t want to die yet!

Soon, an order from the highest authority of the World Government was issued to all senior military officials under the World Government.

And this year, the full military combat readiness operation will be launched again for the umpteenth time.

……

……

Navy, New Mariner.

Akainu, with a cigar in his mouth, looked at the secret order that Den Den Mushi had just uttered, and his whole face twisted into a ball in an instant.

"hateful!"

He couldn't help but yelled:

"These bastards, don't they know that the [World Recruitment] plan has just begun!?"

"Are you trying to embarrass the Navy again by rashly sending out the exhausted army at this time?!"

As the Admiral of the Navy, Akainu naturally had to know about the Straw Hat Pirates' defeat of the BIG MOM Pirates.

But since he took over the navy, the navy has launched several large-scale operations that consumed manpower and material resources but achieved no results...

As a result, the navy today is not only not stronger than before he took over, but is even much weaker.

The world turmoil in recent times has also led to an increasing number of pirates on the sea.

Akainu was originally planning to personally lead a team to organize a pirate cleansing campaign to promote the prestige of the navy and also to build momentum for the [World Recruitment Plan].

But just when he had prepared everything, he received instructions from the Five Elders.

"........."

"There is no other way!"

After a long silence, Akainu decided to obey the orders of the World Government obediently.

After all, without funding from the world government, the [World Recruitment Plan] would be difficult to continue.

and……

"If we can wipe out a Four Emperors-level pirate group at this time, it may be more effective than clearing out the pirates."

"only……"

Several consecutive failures have caused the once extremely confident Iron-Blooded Akainu to begin to doubt himself.

"Can this action really go as planned?!"

Akainu is naturally very familiar with the name of the Straw Hat Pirates.

It wasn't because they attacked Marijoa...

But a big part of the reason why he was able to rise to the position of Navy Admiral was because of this group of pirates!
If the Straw Hat Pirates had not attacked the Judicial Island and defeated Kizaru, Zephyr and the island's garrison troops, leaving a huge stain on the temporary Marshal Tsuru, the Five Elders would not have allowed the next Navy Admiral to take over so quickly.

Although he had many ideas in his mind, Akainu had no choice but to force himself to immediately start arranging the fleet according to the orders of the Five Elder Stars.

This time, not only will he send out Aokiji, the only admiral in the navy at the time, but he will also be prepared to go out himself to ensure the smooth progress of this operation.

……

……

"Are you alive again?"

In the lounge reserved for admirals.

Aokiji, who was sleeping with a newspaper covering his head, was awakened by the messenger's report.

But after hearing the instructions for this operation, his brows couldn't help but frown.

"The Straw Hat Pirates...are they that troublesome pirate group again!?"

As the Navy gets more and more information about the Straw Hat Pirates, Aokiji has now guessed...

The ship that he had caught a glimpse of beneath Sky Island was most likely the Straw Hat Pirates' ship Merry, which had a bounty of 13 billion berries on it!

In other words... the Straw Hat Pirates may have been involved in actions against the Celestial Dragons from a very early stage.

However, even if he guessed this, Aokiji did not reveal this information to Akainu or anyone else.

After all...the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, besides being a powerful pirate, is also the grandson of his half-mentor, the navy hero Garp!
“It’s really a headache!”

Aokiji, who had been restless since he failed in the competition for the position of Admiral of the Navy, was truly feeling unprecedented irritation at this moment!!!
……

……

"Quick! Increase the release of Marshmallow Snow SOIR, and make sure the entire Wan Guo territory is filled with warning thought waves BON. Don't let any fish slip through the net, otherwise, I will hold you accountable!!!"

In the sea of ​​​​Wan Guo, in the very center of Marshmallow Island.

A red-nosed figure flew across the sky filled with white snow, giving orders to a group of giant marshmallow homies working hard below.

And this figure was none other than the Clown King Buggy, who had successfully replaced the original minister of Marshmallow Island and was named the owner of Marshmallow Island by Red!

At the same time, below the marshmallow factory, a person who had eaten the Zebra Form of the Ma-Ma Fruit was holding Buggy's feet and running desperately behind him.

As the zebra-shaped man ran, he couldn't help but reveal an obsessed look at the pair of restless feet in his hands.

If someone came to him at this moment, they would hear his low mumbling:
"I am so happy to be able to hold Captain Buggy's feet!"

"I have no regrets in this life~!!!"

Look at their Captain Buggy...

There are actually people who suspect that Captain Buggy's previous "vanguard" story was all fabricated and made up by him... However, as soon as the Straw Hat Pirates occupied the Wano Sea, they immediately awarded Captain Buggy the Marshmallow Island, an important island responsible for monitoring the entire Wano Sea.

Isn't this enough to show the status of Captain Buggy in the hearts of the Straw Hat Boss? !

The Zebra Pirate sighed in his heart.

However, he completely forgot about his deputy captain Gardino who was building a solid wax wall around Marshmallow Island at this moment.

the other side.

Gardino, with a number 3 on his head, was seen gushing out a large amount of white wax liquid with his hands, while constantly sending good medicine that could restore his physical strength into his mouth. He was working desperately like an ox or a horse.

This was in stark contrast to Buggy, who was laughing wildly and patrolling his territory in the sky.

……

……

On the other side, inside the Cake Island Castle.

Chihong sat on a large chair, looking at the two beautiful women in front of him with a smile on his face.

"I am very glad that you two trust me and are willing to join us."

"Don't worry, you should be able to tell from our captain's behavior that the Straw Hat Fleet is a relaxed and happy group and will not make things too difficult for you."

"Don't say such things at this time, Vice Captain Red!?"

Stussy, who had sexy blonde hair, twisted her waist.

Perhaps because she had never had any conflict with the Straw Hat Pirates from beginning to end, she was in an extra relaxed state at the moment.

Stussy said directly:
"You should know clearly that I do not represent myself."

"As the link between you two, it is inevitable that I may not do well in some areas. I hope that Master Chihong will not make things too difficult for me."

"Oh? Is that so?" Chi Hong smiled and looked at her with admiration: "But I have great confidence in your ability."

"Ha~" Stussy opened the fragrant fluffy folding fan in his hand, covering half of his delicate face, and exclaimed:
"I never thought that I would have such a high status in Lord Chihong's heart..."

"In this case, thank you very much for your appreciation, sir."

"Haha..." Chi Hong chuckled and added: "Believe me..."

"I know you, perhaps better than you know yourself!"

As soon as Chihong finished speaking, there was an obvious tremor in Stussy's eyes, but she quickly hid it.

The two smiled at each other, and their eyes seemed to see through each other while hiding themselves.

After a moment of silence, Chi Hong suddenly smiled and said:
"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense."

"Stussie, I have an important task for you to do!"

"What is it?" Stussy pretended to listen, as if he had instantly entered the role of a subordinate.

And Chihong said word by word:

"I hope you can become the new leader of Akatsuki and lead Akatsuki to quickly unify the underground world!"

"When the time comes, I will ask the other brothers of the Straw Hat Pirates to provide you with some necessary assistance."

"dawn!?"

Stussy was surprised when he heard this and wanted to ask, "Could it be... that Akatsuki organization that suddenly appeared in the underground world..."

But when she said this, she suddenly stopped talking.

Obviously, the doubts in her heart had been answered at this moment.

"...I understand." Stussy narrowed his eyes slightly, but accepted the task.

From the identity of an Akatsuki organization, she thought of a lot.

After eliminating those things that were on the surface, Stussy's mind suddenly recalled the live execution of the Celestial Dragons nearly a year ago, which opened the prelude to the current chaos in the ocean.

"So... since that time, the Straw Hat Pirates have been controlling the world?" Stussy murmured in shock and came to the same conclusion as Whitebeard.

On the other side, hearing Stussy's answer, Chihong also showed a satisfied smile on his face.

After all, this young android, who looks like a girl, had a record of easily dealing with two senior CP0 agents in the anime in the original timeline.

The success of the sneak attack does not prove Stussy's strength.

But the fact that she was able to easily deal with two strong men at the critical moment and successfully reduce the number of the other side was enough to show that this woman was capable of playing crucial games!

more importantly……

She may be the only channel that the Straw Hat Pirates currently have to contact Vegapunk.

During the celebration party, Red found Stussy and confronted her directly, and got a chance to have a brief exchange with Vegapunk.

Vegapunk, who learned about the Straw Hat Pirates from Stussy, was also very interested in them.

However, the other party is still under the camp of the World Government, and its research on infinite energy - Mother Fire does not seem to have been completely successful.

Therefore, Vegapunk did not plan to have too close contact with the Straw Hat Pirates for the time being. After communication, both sides decided to send Stussy to act as a mouthpiece between the two parties.

Red expressed full understanding of Vegapunk's caution.

Anyway, the other party has agreed to provide certain technical support to the Straw Hat Pirates and hand it over to the Straw Hat Pirates through Stussy.

With the knowledge that Vegapunk possesses, whether it is Franky's body transformation, Usopp's Zerg breeding, or even Chopper's path to becoming a scientist, there will be a huge improvement.

Seeing that Vegapunk was so generous, Red was not willing to be outdone, and directly let him know in advance that York of "Desire" might betray him.

Although he didn't quite believe that his clone would betray him, Vegapunk was not a stubborn person. Instead, he thanked Red very seriously for the information and decided to connect with other clones in the future to increase supervision over York.

So far...

Stussy, who has multiple identities, will once again acquire a new identity...

The voice bond between the Straw Hat Pirates and Vegapunk!!!
After dealing with Stussy, Akagi immediately turned his gaze and looked directly at Reiju, who was wearing a pink combat uniform that highlighted her curvy figure.

"How is it? Has your father's condition improved? "

"It's much better now, Master Red."

Reiju pursed her lips with a complicated expression, but in the end, she still called out this respectful name for Red like Stussy, which also expressed the attitude of their Vinsmoke family.

After she called out the first time, Reiju seemed to be relieved. Her expression became visibly relaxed, and she continued to report:

"Thanks to Dr. Chopper's medicine, my father Judge has now returned to normal."

"It's just that because his body has not fully recovered, he cannot come to pay a visit to Master Chihong this time. I hope you can forgive me."

"Haha, no problem~"

"You should have heard from Sanji that the atmosphere here is very relaxed."

"Besides, you are Sanji's sister, you don't have to be so polite to me."

"Okay, Lord Akane." Although she agreed verbally, Reiju's tone did not change at all.

After all, from beginning to end, Sanji never admitted that he was a member of the Vinsmoke family, so it was impossible for her to directly use this as an excuse to talk to the Straw Hat Pirates.

After choosing her words, Reiju continued:
"Although my father cannot stay here, he has learned from me everything that happened on Cake Island."

"He asked me to apologize to the Straw Hat Pirates on behalf of him and the entire Vinsmoke Family for what they did back then."

"At the same time, my father has also entrusted me with the responsibility of handling all matters concerning the Vinsmoke Family from now on."

“If Lord Red has any instructions for the Vinsmoke Family in the future, just come to me directly.”

Reiju raised her head.

Although she didn't say anything about joining the Straw Hat Army.

But what she did was more sincere than any other member of the Straw Hat Army.
