Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

After hearing this, Weiwei raised her head in shock, with an incomprehensible look on her face.

She didn't understand why these people were still talking and laughing as if nothing had happened when faced with such a shocking thing.

However, when she saw the description of the Straw Hats in the newspaper, Weiwei understood instantly...

Why is Red so sure they can defeat Crocodile.

With the power of three people, they destroyed an entire naval fleet!

Is this really something humans can do? ?

Subconsciously, Weiwei turned her gaze to Chihong again.

He happened to meet the eyes of Chi Hong who was also looking over.

For a moment, the two looked at each other.

After a moment of silence, Weiwei asked again:

"So...if it's the plan you mentioned, what do we have to pay?"

"It's easy!"

Chi Hong tapped the table and said with a smile:

"We don't know much about the situation in the Kingdom of Alabasta."

"So I hope you can provide our group with the fastest route to where Crocodile is, which is the Rain Land!"

"And solve various problems such as food, clothing, housing and transportation along the way."

"After we set sail, I also need you to provide a large amount of navigation supplies, including but not limited to telephone bugs, recording pointers, gunpowder, and other supplies."

"........."

"........."

"Um!?"

Weiwei was suddenly startled and groaned in confusion.

"and then?"

"Then?" Chihong looked at her with a smile, "What else?"

"No."

Weiwei was surprised again and asked in confusion:

"What you mean is...the supplies provided..."

"Only for a few of you!? Just for this ship!?"

"Yes!" Chi Hong replied matter-of-factly: "After all, we only have this one ship."

"Don't worry, you don't need to worry about Labu. He can hunt in the deep sea by himself."

"What you have to prepare is enough for us people!"

"I……"

At this moment, Weiwei was of course stunned.

She originally thought that Crimson Red would ask for things like Bailey, treasures, or even nobility or territory.

Unexpectedly, Chi Hong’s request was only this! ?

Navigation supplies?

Even if they fill the entire ship, how much can they take away! ?

Compared to trading, their actions are simply...

Doing a charity!

"Why?" Weiwei immediately asked in confusion.

But Chihong patted Luffy beside him: "How can there be so many reasons!"

"If I really want to talk about it..."

"The Shichibukai of the Grand Line are powerful competitors to the Pirate King! They are also a stepping stone for us to become famous!"

"We are still worried about not being able to find him!"

"There will be a fight sooner or later anyway..."

"This way we can also get supplies that you are grateful for, which will make our next voyage smoother."

"Why not do it!?"

"Are you right, Luffy?"

"That's right!"

Luffy smiled cheerfully and said:

"If you want to become the Pirate King, you have to fight against these strong men!"

"I will not give up my position as Pirate King to them!"

He can't wait to fight with more powerful men!

Of course, in fact, only half of what Chihong said was right.

Not all the Shichibukai are their enemies.

But Crocodile is indeed the one they must defeat.

To put it mildly, it was to save the residents of the Kingdom of Alabasta from the fire and water.

To put it more utilitarian, Nico Robin, the fate of the Straw Hats, is still firmly grasped by the Sand Crocodile!

Although Chi Hong has not told Luffy about these things, the gears of fate have finally started to turn on their own.

It just so happened that Chihong also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to test the machine's capabilities!

"you……"

Weiwei's eyes instantly became moist.

At this moment, she felt the kindness from Red and the Straw Hats.

"Hey, hey, don't be so impatient."

Seeing this scene, Chihong quickly interrupted her mood.

He was not good at comforting crying women, that was Nami and Sanji's job.

What's more, his real purpose has not been revealed yet!

Chihong suddenly said: "Why don't you come and listen to my last plan, Princess Weiwei!"

"You say!"

At this moment, Weiwei subconsciously used honorifics when facing Chihong.

Even though it sounded weird, Chihong didn't intend to remind her, but instead expressed her thoughts:

“As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish!”

"The current situation in the Kingdom of Alabasta is ultimately not caused by the Shichibukai Crocodile!"

"But your royal family is too weak! There is no high-end combat power!"

"How could such a huge country be reduced to this by a pirate, even if the opponent is the Shichibukai!"

"Even if Crocodile is eliminated today, there will be a second guy with malicious intentions targeting you tomorrow!"

"So instead of being afraid and praying that you won't be bullied by strong people, you should try your best to make yourself as strong as possible!"

"So Princess Weiwei, would you like to cooperate with me to build the Kingdom of Alabasta into a..."

"The country of Pokémon!"

……

……

The gentle sea breeze blew the sails, making the Meili sail faster.

Just now, the Straw Hats encountered their first disaster after entering the Grand Line!

Its name is - The Wrath of Nature! ! !

Originally, Vivi and the Straw Hat pirates were talking in the cabin, but Mr. 9 suddenly shouted outside, interrupting their conversation.

Chihong and others quickly ran out of the cabin.

Immediately they saw that the originally clear and cloudless sky was filled with huge hailstones.

The cold breath spread throughout the Meili.

After that, storms, tsunamis, and heavy rain descended on the heads of the Straw Hats one after another.

Fortunately, Luffy and the others were already quite strong at this time, and coupled with Hong's surfing skills, they managed to survive without any danger.

In fact, if Labu hadn't just gone to the deep sea to eat, they could have entered Labu's body just now and escaped the harsh weather of nature.

The journey for the next few hours went surprisingly smoothly.
