One Piece: Beginning and Straw Hat Luffy living on a desert island

Bryant said it's a place with a lot of stories.

"There are two well-known rumors in this town, one is the long-standing rumor, that the base commander, Colonel Monka, seems to be a strange man, and the people of the town seem to be quite afraid of him.

Bryant, who was sitting in the middle of the boat, was telling the rumors.

Mu Long sat near the bow of the boat, observing the situation in the town from afar.

Mingga questioned Bryant's words and leaned forward to ask, "Why are the townsfolk afraid of the Colonel? He's protecting the town from pirates, isn't he?"

"I don't know why, but there are rumors. "

Is that guy strong?"

"Yes, probably.

Luffy turned to look at Mulong, "Hey Mulong, do you think a Navy Colonel is powerful?" "

I think it's amazing, he's probably the most important person in that base." "

Huh.

"However, if you compare it to the people at the headquarters, his rank is a little lower. You can think that the captain of the headquarters of the Navy, many times stronger than the colonel of the Superior Division. "

The marines who belong to the headquarters and the marines who belong to the branch seem to be equal, but the internal situation is unexpectedly different.

In terms of ability, the people at the headquarters are superior. There are also differences in job titles.

Kobe, who aspires to join the Navy, also hears the news often.

"There is also a rumor, which is from the most recent date. There's a well-known bounty hunter around here, but I've heard he's been caught in this town recently. "

Got caught? Bounty hunters are on the side of the Navy, aren't they

?" "Why did you get caught?"

"That... I don't know the details, but the reason why this story became big news is because the person who was captured was famous, a swordsman known as the 'Pirate Hunter'. "

Oh oh cool!" Luffy's eyes lit up, happy.

Bryant's story piqued his curiosity.

Bryant was still talking to them: "That man's name is Roronoah Zoro, and it's rumored that he's being held in that base right now. "

Hahaha, hunting pirates... Looks like you're strong.

Luffy's smile revealed his anticipation.

"Mr. Luffy, I'm telling you this story to make you careful. Please don't say we're going to see. Kobe Bryant busy.

"Is it chasing pirates?what kind of person is he?"

"Wait, Mr. Luffy, are you listening to me!"

"And he's a swordsman. Sounds interesting.

Luffy doesn't seem to have listened to Kobe's advice anymore and is happily thinking about the pirate hunter he hasn't seen yet. Bryant hung his shoulders and bowed his head.

Minghe, who was listening to the story next to him, was also very interested, and looked thoughtful.

Bounty hunters make a living by capturing pirates and then handing them over to the navy to collect money.

For the Navy, they are allies and collaborators.

If Roronoa Zoro is really a bounty hunter, why was he captured by the Navy?

Looking at the two of them who were lost in thought, Kobe Bryant sighed softly.

I wonder if it's better not to say anything.

Mulong smiled and shouted at him, "Don't worry, Kobe.

"Uh, yes... I thought you were worried about everyone too. Seeing

that Mulong didn't mean to stop the boat, Minghe was also curious.

It seems that no one on this ship is going to stop Luffy.

Bryant couldn't help but sigh again, wondering if he was really okay.

The trolley sailboat has already tried to approach the island.

Luffy walked over to the dragon and sat down, gazing at the town's conspicuous naval base, imagining what kind of man would await there.

"Hey, Worn, what kind of person is Sauron

?" "Would you like to take a look?"

"Yes.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Luffy! Say no!"

Kobe Bryant heard Luffy's words and rushed to Luffy's side and called him from behind.

"No, you can't do that. He was arrested because he was a bad guy. Bounty hunters are caught rarely, and I believe there's a reason for that. Moreover, he has been arrested for a long time. There are rumors about him, and whether he's a good guy or not—" "

Just look at it, let's go."

"Mr. Luffy

..." "Okay, okay, Kobe, there's no way, we have to go and see..." Kobe

lowered his shoulders and exhaled deeply, giving up persuasion.

Ming He walked into the three people who were talking: "Mu Long, I remember you said that you were going to buy something, and you also had to prepare all kinds of things for the voyage. What are you going to do now?"

So Kobe, can I give

Luffy to you?" "Eh!?me?"

Kobe was shocked when Mulong asked him to accompany Luffy, his shoulders trembling.

Luffy, on the other hand, seemed to be a little dissatisfied, "Ahhhh

"

Why don't you come, Akiga?"

"Luffy, we need to divide the work. Since they are friends, they must cooperate. Hearing

Mingga's chuckled reproachful words, Luffy reconsidered.

Soon, he began to look at the town with an innocent sense of adventure.

Already ready, the Wrangler threw a small bag at Kobe. There was some gold and Bailey in it, and the bag was small but tightly packed.

It seems like a lot of money, Kobe Bryant looked at Mulong suspiciously.

Seeing Kobe Bryant's uneasy face, Mulong said softly.

"No matter what happens, Luffy will protect you. "

Haha. "

The schooner arrived at the port, was tied with a rope and safely moored near land.

The shepherd put away the sails, and the landing was quickly completed.

Luffy was the first to disembark, and an irrepressible joy appeared on his face, as if he couldn't suppress his emotions anymore.

"Great! Naval Base Town!"

"Luffy, don't go anywhere alone. "

Four people looking at the town, very peaceful little city view.

People walk down the street with smiles on their faces, and there is not a trace of quarrel in sight.

The first rumor that Kobe Bryant told didn't seem to be true.

Contrary to Luffy's situation of looking around, Mulong, who didn't want to encounter danger, turned to Minghe and looked at it, "Let's go buy everything we need for the trip."

"Okay. What do you want?"

"For the time being, water and food... If we end up separating from Kobe, we'll need a chart. As far as we're concerned, we don't need weapons, and then—"

Ah, what about the clothes? It's disgusting to wear the same clothes all the time, you have to wash, you need to change your clothes.

"Yes. Leave this to Minghe, your taste is better.

Luffy couldn't help but want to get into town quickly, and before he knew it, he had already left.

"Luffy, wait Kobe. "

Leave it to me. Bryant hurriedly chased after him.

"Are you sure you can? Kobe, good luck. "

Huh!?" Kobe chuckled, "Then we'll go first." "

Luffy, Kobe, goodbye. "

Oh. See you later. Luffy also waved his hand, and Kobe lowered his head and quickly turned his gaze to the street in front of him. The streets are small but busy. Looks like a lot of fun.

Luffy walked over first with a look of joy on his face, and Kobe Bryant followed.

"Mr. Luffy, are you really going?"

"Let's go and see." Bryant, show me around. "

Okay, but I... I don't know if this is okay?"

led by Luffy, they walked through the streets.

There are all kinds of shops, but Luffy is only staring at the base and has no interest in them.

Feeling the strength of determination from Luffy's appearance, Kobe Bryant patted his cheek and regained his senses: What am I afraid of? I just decided that I would try my best to die.

Meeting the captured Roronoa Solon was the first step to becoming a Marine!

Just as Kobe Bryant made up his mind, they passed by a storefront.

Strangely, Luffy's legs suddenly stopped.

Bryant, who touched his back, was taken aback, and he wondered,

"What's wrong?" "

Hmm..."

"Are you not feeling well? Then get a doctor-" "

It smells so good..."Luffy

turned around, drooling from the corners of his mouth.

A few seconds ago, he had only curiosity about Zoro, but now he was captured by appetite.
