Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 429: Forming a scientific research team (asking for monthly tickets~)

"Interesting!? Pirate Emperor!?"

Aboard the Merry.

Although they have not returned to the Pokémon Sea yet, there have been reports about the Straw Hat Pirates in recent days, and they have not missed a single visit.

Red waved the latest newspaper in his hand, waved to Luffy not far away with interest, and then shouted:

"Hey, Luffy, your new title has been revealed!"

"Do you want to know what it is?!"

"what? What!?"

Luffy, who was fishing, came over immediately after hearing this.

Even Jinbei, Redfield, Usopp and others who were fishing with him cast curious glances at him.

"As expected of Luffy, he has achieved the glory of surpassing the Four Emperors so quickly."

"Hey, this is normal~"

"After all, Luffy is about to become the Pirate King!"

"Pirate King~ It's such a familiar yet strange name."

Usopp and the others put down their fishing rods one after another and moved towards Akahiki.

Soon, they saw the latest report in the newspaper...

[Seeing through the tricks of the devil's offspring Barrett, defeating the Four Emperors and the Beasts, this sea has finally reached a new peak! 】

[The Pirate Emperor——Monkey D. Luffy!!!]

"The Pirate Emperor!? He's so handsome!!!"

Usopp shouted excitedly as he read the report about Luffy in the newspaper.

The others also had their eyes shining, and it was obvious that everyone was very satisfied with Luffy's new name.

Luffy, on the other hand, scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly after a brief moment of joy.

"Hehe~ But it was Red who saw through Barrett's trick, and I wasn't the only one who helped defeat the Beasts Pirates..."

"But in this report, it seems like all the credit is attributed to me."

“Isn’t this good~”

Chihong folded the newspaper with amusement.

"This way, if a strong enemy attacks us in the future, they will only target you, and we will all have a lot more free time."

"That's right~" Usopp nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Akane's point of view.

Then everyone started chattering again.

Even Nami and others who were originally in the cabin came to the deck after being reminded by Merry, and learned of Luffy's new title.

"Okay~"

In the end, it was Akane who clapped her hands gently, interrupting the conversation which had somehow shifted from Luffy's title to how to properly fight skin aging.

"No matter what, we are now at the pinnacle of pirates, and we are only one step away from becoming the Pirate King."

"From now on, countless eyes will be watching us, including the World Government, Red Hair, White Beard, and all kinds of ambitious people on the sea..."

“I believe they will never let us reach the summit successfully.”

"So before that..."

A mysterious smile suddenly flashed across the red corners of his mouth.

"To be on the safe side, we'd better accumulate a force that is more powerful than all the forces in the world combined!!!"

"Hey, isn't this a bit too cautious!?"

"Is it really necessary to go to this extent!?"

Hearing this, Nami immediately glanced at Red.

After all, even the Pirate King back then was not as scary as Akane said.

Do not!
If we really count the coefficients, their current strength should be stronger than that of the Pirate King back then, right?
Even if it was Roger, he couldn't be as perverted as Luffy.

"What does it matter? Becoming stronger is never a bad thing."

"Well, in order to prepare for the upcoming war, let's set a small goal first."

Chihong smiled slightly, but his eyes swept over his companions one by one, and then he slowly said:

"All members... Admiral level!!!"

"Nani~!!!?"

Hearing this unrealistic statement, the Straw Hat guys were suddenly stunned, staring at Chihong in disbelief.

Even though they now possess considerable strength, even though they have become the objects of admiration of all pirates.

But isn't the goal of having all members at the general level a bit too outrageous?

However, facing everyone's questioning gazes, Chihong just smiled without commenting.

"Hey, what's with that expression on your face!?"

"You don't think... this is difficult to do, do you?!" "Isn't it?" Chopper looked up in confusion, but what he saw was the confident light in the red eyes.

"If it was before, it would not be easy."

"But now~"

Chihong raised his eyebrows, but did not continue speaking. He just turned his gaze to the other side of the deck, where Caesar and Quinn, who were obviously very curious but were still pretending to fish!

In addition, there is Vegapunk who is moving to the Pokémon Sea, and the Vinsmoke Family who have already settled in the Pokémon Sea!

Today's Straw Hat Pirates have the world's top scientific researchers and countless resources.

And under the powerful pressure of force, he was confident that he could make Caesar and Quinn obedient and study what he wanted them to study.

With such a scientific research team, he believes they can do anything!
include……

Research the reason why Blackbeard can possess multiple fruit abilities at the same time!

That's right!

Chihong has always had a plan in mind, which is to understand the secret of the devil fruit, and then...

Research a method to possess multiple abilities.

No matter how successful this matter is, Chihong believes that these top scientists must be very interested in it.

Of course, they still have a lot of immediate work to do before studying this topic.

……

……

Two days later, in the Pokémon Sea.

Dozens of strange-shaped pirate ships were parked in the middle of the sea, lined up neatly, as if waiting for something.

At this moment, a huge pirate ship carrying five naval warships slowly approached this side.

at the same time……

"I'm coming!"

"Boss Luffy and Boss Red are back!!!"

On a pirate ship with a red-nosed bow, a lookout dressed in circus costume suddenly shouted excitedly.

"very good!"

At the bottom of the observation deck, Buggy the Clown stood up suddenly after hearing this, then excitedly opened his personal terminal and shouted:
"Everyone, immediately notify the other island owners to get ready!"

"Our Pirate Emperor is about to return!!!"

"Understood~!"

Barto's voice came from the personal terminal in almost one second.

Then the voices from the major island owners rang out from their personal terminals one after another.

Some of them were full of passion, while others were listless, some even a little helpless.

But inevitably, under Bucky's guidance and advice, they all came here...

Come and welcome the return of the Straw Hat Pirates.

At the same time that Buggy and others discovered the Merry, everyone on the Merry also saw the pirate ships docked on the sea.

Luffy put his hand between his eyebrows and said curiously:

"It seems to be Bucky and the others~"

"Strange, why are they there?"

Whoosh~! ! !

At this moment, a brilliant flame suddenly rose from the pirate ships in the distance and rushed straight into the sky.

next moment……

Peng! ! !
Accompanied by a slight explosion, a firework that was clearly visible even in the daytime suddenly appeared in the eyes of the Straw Hat people.

Then a large number of fireworks flew into the air one after another, and then bloomed at the highest point, showing the most beautiful moment to the Straw Hat people without reservation.

The largest bunch of fireworks among them left a funny face with a red nose in the air after it bloomed.

Near this face, there is a clear and neat text:

【Welcome the Straw Hat Pirates home!!!】

The words lingered for a long time, as if branded in the air, leaving the name of the Straw Hat Pirates forever in this world for everyone present to admire.

Everything has two sides.

When Buggy the Clown gave up his talent in cannonballs and turned to studying fireworks...

All the fireworks in this world will be eclipsed.

Peng! ! !
The colorful fireworks seemed to replace the sunlight in the sky, illuminating the whole world with a colorful look.

Bucky: "I want to improve so badly!!!"
