Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 430: Hawkeye Joins the Gang (asking for monthly pass~)

How successful can an ammunition genius be in arranging a fireworks display without considering the cost?
On this day, Bucky successfully set an example for fireworks masters all over the world!
Although the initial fireworks were brilliant, the area they covered was only the area where all the pirate ships gathered.

But when the Merry entered the Pokémon Sea, everything changed instantly!

At this moment, 35 islands in the Wan Guo Ocean simultaneously received the signal sent by Buggy.

All of a sudden...

Whoosh! ! !
Peng——!!!
The pyrotechnicians assigned to each island pressed the buttons in their hands instantly.

Fireworks from 36 islands rose into the sky at the same time, bursting into brilliant colorful lights.

From the perspective of the Merry in the distance, one can clearly see the members of the Straw Hat Pirates appearing in the sky one after another in different postures.

Even the images of Uta, Redfield, who had just joined, and the ship elf Little Merry were listed among them.

"Wow~!!!"

At this moment, even Zoro and others who were not very interested in these fancy things couldn't help but look up.

The colorful light reflected on their faces, highlighting the surprised smiles on their faces.

Then, there were festive fireworks from 36 islands.

The sound was so great that passing ships could not help but stop what they were doing to appreciate this scene that was worthy of being recorded.

The fireworks in the sky continued for a long time, until the Merry approached the ships of the Straw Hat Fleet, and then gradually died down.

Before the Merry approached, Buggy, who was standing at the front of the Straw Hat Fleet, flew up and came to the Merry with a flattering look on his face, rubbing his hands at Chihong and the others and said:
"Welcome home, Pirate Emperor!"

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone!!!"

"Good job, Bucky!"

Even though it was just some useless superficial work, Red still praised Buggy generously.

Why in the story, even though the Straw Hat Pirates defeated the Beasts and became the Four Emperors, there are still people who look down on them and do not recognize them...

It’s because the Straw Hat Pirates’ presence is too small!
The smaller the scale, the smaller the appearance.

If you don't value your own identity and don't protect it, people will naturally subconsciously ignore your strength.

Just a little brother's subordinate, he dares to be so arrogant and resentful.

Although these trivial matters are not worth mentioning in the face of absolute power, it would still be somewhat uncomfortable if important matters were affected by such things.

so……

"Not bad! Very good!!!"

Red praised Buggy again.

The other members of the Straw Hat Pirates also showed expressions of joy and satisfaction.

After all, they are all pirates, how many of them don't care about their reputation?
“Hehe~” Buggy grinned after receiving the praise, but said modestly:

"It's all thanks to the good education you adults gave me!"

If, a year ago, he, as a former crew member of the Pirate King, still had his own pride, was unwilling to easily lower himself and was unwilling to agree with the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates...

Well, at this moment, he has completely immersed himself in the identity of the number one member of the Straw Hat Pirates' Grand Fleet!

Thank the East China Sea, thank the Buggy Pirates for their weakness!

If he hadn't been too weak and reluctant to return to the Grand Line, how would he have had the chance to become the first man to join the Straw Hat Grand Fleet.

Relying on his status as the number one, even though Buggy's strength is still at the bottom of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, it does not affect his command of a group of strong men at all.

And as the status of the Straw Hat Pirates rises, his status as the Straw Hat's number one lackey is naturally much higher than that of other lackeys.

Even Bucky had a premonition.

Maybe in the near future, just by virtue of his status as the number one lackey, he will be able to match Shanks' current status on the sea.

Do not!
It could be even better!!!

With the arrangements made by Buggy and a large fleet under his command, the return of the Straw Hat Pirates this time can be said to have caused a sensation in the entire Pokémon Sea and surrounding waters.

But even so, no one felt strange.

After all, he is the Pirate Emperor who has surpassed the Four Emperors. It would be abnormal if he didn't have any pomp and ceremony.

Such a scene made the pirates who came here from the Celebration Island excited.

To know……

The scene they saw was the same as that of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Even though they knew that the fireworks and cheers were for the Straw Hat Pirates, they were inexplicably excited following behind them.

This also strengthened their determination to join the Straw Hat team.

That's why Red praised Buggy twice...well done.

A grand banquet thus began throughout the Pokémon Sea.

But this time, apart from eating and drinking, the banquet was more like an annual meeting of the Straw Hat Pirates.

During this period, Red first formally accepted Cavendish, Helding and others as members of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, and loaded Pokémon templates for some of the strong ones among them one by one, which made several people look surprised.

It is also because of their joining that the island that was originally vacant and unmanaged finally has its own island owner.

As for the less than 20,000 New World pirates who came with them, they were also assigned to various islands to serve as island guards.

When there is time in the future, Crimson will go to each island one by one and load Pokémon templates and skills for them in an organized manner.

In addition to these people, there is another person that Chi Hong has to worry about...

That is, he came to the Pokémon Sea with nearly 20,000 pirates as a "guard"...

The "former" world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk!

……

……

"Senior Hawkeye, our deal has been completed. What are your plans next?!"

In the middle of the banquet, Chihong, who had finished a lot of things, finally found some time. He shook the red wine glass filled with famous wine and found Hawkeye in the corner.

"Intend?"

Hawkeye elegantly used the knife in his hand to cut the steak into small pieces for easier eating. Then he looked at Red curiously, thought for a moment and replied:
"Now that things have come to an end, I am naturally preparing to return to my base."

Chi Hong smiled and said, "The base that you mentioned should be the one on the cemetery-like Kraikana Island, right?!"

"Yes."

Although he had not advertised his residence, he did not find it strange that the Straw Hat Pirates were able to obtain such information.

But at this moment, Chihong suddenly produced a piece of fax paper and placed it directly on Hawkeye's desk.

"It seems that Senior Eagle Eye still doesn't know~"

A mysterious smile flashed in the red eyes.

"This is the internal newspaper released by the World Government Propaganda Department yesterday. Some of the news on it has not been made public yet and is only circulated within the World Government's internal institutions..."

"But it seems that the movements of the seniors have been controlled by the CP organization of the World Government."

"During the time that Senior was away, the CP Department of the World Government led a warship of the size of the Demon Slayer Order to the island of Kraikana where you are."

"It's already a ruin now!"

"What!?"

Hawkeye's arm, which was holding up the steak, suddenly froze.

He immediately looked at the faxed newspaper on the table.

All that was clearly recorded above was the entire content of the naval baptism of Kraikana Island.

It was clearly recorded above that on the second day after the Celebration Island incident, CP0 and other CP departments directly dispatched a force comparable to three times the Demon Killing Order to attack Kraikana Island.

Although they failed to successfully snipe Hawkeye who returned from Celebration Island, they successfully robbed the residence of the world's greatest swordsman and looted a large amount of property and famous swords.

And use enough artillery shells to flatten all the buildings there.

It goes without saying that everything the World Government does at this point in time is naturally related to the hidden chess piece that Red has planted in CP0.

But Hawkeye didn't know the current relationship between the Straw Hat Pirates and Stussy.

In addition, the navy had previously attacked other Seven Warlords of the Sea pirate groups, so he simply regarded all of this as the World Government taking advantage of the situation.

Seeing his lair being destroyed, the usually calm Hawkeyes also burst into nameless anger.

"CP0..."

Invisible sword energy gushed out around his body, and the dinner knife in his hand seemed to have become some kind of peerless divine weapon, emitting unprecedented power.

But in the end, Hawkeye gradually calmed down.

The world situation is complicated and confusing now, even he, a former "navy hunter", dare not act rashly. Moreover, it is so difficult to seek revenge on the World Government.

However, at this moment, Chihong suddenly spoke again:
"It seems that Senior Hawkeye doesn't want to just swallow his anger so easily."

"But it's also true~ The world's greatest swordsman was treated like this. Any strong man with dignity would not accept such a thing."

Hawkeye, who was about to swallow his anger, said: “…………”

"That's right! I will definitely find a chance to avenge this!!!"

"That would be great!"

Under Hawkeye's puzzled gaze, Chihong suddenly clapped his hands in surprise.

Immediately, he saw a gleam of anticipation in his eyes, and he looked at Hawkeye seriously and smiled:
"Since Senior Hawkeye is also planning to take action against the World Government, we now have a common enemy!"

"There's no point in going back to Senpai's place anyway, so why not just settle down in the Pokémon Sea for now."

"This way, next time if we take action against the World Government, we can inform our seniors more quickly."

"This……"

Hawkeye showed some hesitation when he heard this.

But the next second, Chi Hong continued:

"If Senior is here, Zoro can often spar with him."

"The last battle was interrupted by Kaido, it was a pity that he was interrupted for a long time."

"Of course, we won't let the seniors waste their time and energy in vain."

"I will pay a gift that will impress you as a sparring partner for Zoro."

"This……"

At this moment, Hawkeye has discovered Red's true intentions.

Wants to tie himself to the Straw Hat Pirates.

He had actually guessed this when Red asked him to come to the Pokémon Sea.

However, Chihong has given enough face in terms of attitude and sincerity.

Plus, he really had nowhere to go, and he also wanted to know how far a swordsman like Zoro could go.

After thinking for a long time, Hawkeye nodded slightly.

"It seems that I will have to bother you for a while until you find a new place to live."

"Haha~ How can this be considered a disturbance~"

Chi Hong smiled happily, and immediately struck while the iron was hot:

"Don't worry, I will definitely ask them to prepare a perfect residence for Senior Eagle Eye."

"Also... in order to avoid too many things later, I will pay Zoro's tuition to Senior Hawkeye in advance."

……

……

[Pokémon: Dracule Mihawk]

【Level: 86】

[Gender: convex]

[Character: Calm (+Special Attack-Speed)]

[Attributes: Dragon, Steel]

[Features: Normal Skin (Changes all moves of all attributes to normal attributes, with the power equivalent to that of a normal attribute Pokémon.)]

【Skill:--】

[Experience value: 0/22447]

[Total attributes: 1520]

……

……

"This……"

Looking at Hawkeye's attribute panel, Chihong was stunned for a moment.

This was the first time he saw that a Pokémon's characteristics not only did not help the Pokémon, but instead had a counterproductive effect.

Hawkeye's strength is indeed very strong.

Although his level is the same as Yixiao at the beginning, level 86, his overall attributes are much stronger than Yixiao's, which is enough to prove how powerful his talent is.

At the same time, the attribute value of 1520 also shows that his strength is already at the admiral level. Perhaps only a veteran admiral like Aokiji can surpass him.

but……

"Why is it normal skin?!"

Red was not surprised that Hawkeye had the same dragon and steel attributes as Zoro.

After all, one of them wants to become the strongest in the world, and the other is already the strongest in the world.

However, this characteristic of general skin will not only eliminate Hawkeye's enhancement of Dragon and Steel moves.

And judging from the characteristics and effects of Chopper's fairy skin, the general characteristics are likely to make many moves with special effects become ordinary.

After all, general attributes themselves do not have any special effects.

"Is it because of Hawkeye's swordsmanship!?"

"From what we can see in the anime, Hawkeye's swordsmanship should be the kind of swordsmanship that uses great skill and ultimate slashing."

"Because Sword Intention is the simplest and most extreme normal attack, the machine gave it a normal skin?"

“I don’t know if this feature will help him.”

After thinking about the general usage of skin properties, Chihong didn't think too much about it.

At least judging from Hawkeye's shocked and overwhelmed look at this moment, he must be very satisfied with the current result.

……

……

Just like that, after feeling the charm of the power of Pokémon, Hawkeye successfully entered the Pokémon Sea as a kendo teacher.

But watching him teach Zoro how to use the black sword, and Zoro teaching him how to transform into a Pokémon...

For a moment, it was hard to tell who was whose teacher.

After a few days of observation, Chihong discovered that his previous guess was correct.

Under the power of normal skin, the oppressive feeling and destructiveness of the original dragon attribute energy disappeared, and the hardness and solidification of the steel attribute were also weakened a lot...

But when Hawkeye first condensed the Dragon's Wave into the sword path and unleashed a new wave slash...

Its power is because it is too compatible with his own sword intent, thus releasing terrifying might!

That blow also made Zoro realize the gap between him and Hawkeye.

However, Hawkeye, who has integrated Pokémon moves into the sword, is already so powerful. To be able to comprehend this ultimate sword art, his comprehension is naturally world-class...

If he really learned how to transform into a Pokémon like Zoro, I wonder how powerful he would be! ?
Four Emperors!?
Or...surpass the Four Emperors?
Red, who was originally still worried about the general skin characteristics, suddenly discovered... He seemed to have accidentally created a supermodel player for the pirate world.

In the blink of an eye, a week has passed since Red and others returned to the Pokémon Sea.

After several busy days, the Pokémon Sea finally began to become gradually stable, and each island began to perform its duties and carry out its own work.

On this day, Chihong called Quinn and Caesar, who had been ignored, to Cake Island.

The reason...

This is because Vegapunk, who had been sneaking around for a while, finally moved all the research project data and finished products on Eggshell Island to the Pokémon Sea.

These include the Infinite Energy Mother Fire, which is gradually drawing to an end, the Big Bear clone, which is currently in the production stage, and the Seraph, which has been unknown to the World Government personnel since the death of Saint Satan.

The "Bank Record" made from the brain cut off from Vegapunk was also sent directly into space at the suggestion of Chihong.

Of course, there is also the big bear that Bonnie has always wanted to meet.

All I can say is that Saint Satan died at the perfect time!

Everything stopped on the eve of tragedy.

This also gives Crimson more room for maneuver.
