Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 268 The big one is coming! The final sprint!

"Eh hee hee hee..."

"This is truly an unimaginable power!"

On the terrifying brig, Moria and his group, who were standing unsteadily, held on tightly to the wall beside them to stabilize their bodies.

Absalom and Perona both showed expressions of extreme horror.

"Lord Moria, are we really going to listen to the Straw Hat Pirates and attack the Celestial Dragons?"

"Isn't this a bit... too dangerous!?"

"That's it."

"No matter what, as the Shichibukai, we took the initiative to provoke the World Government... and we killed the Celestial Dragons. If the World Government finds out, they will definitely not let us off!!!"

Perona's eyes were blank and tears were streaming down her face as the island rose and fell.

Until now, they have been fine.

Just half a month ago, they were still living a dark, carefree and happy life in the thick fog of the Devil's Triangle.

Why did their world seem to have completely changed in just a few days?

Although Perona and Absalom both admitted that the power of Pokémon given to them by Red was very powerful and tempting...

But that wouldn't be enough to make them give up their lives for it! ?

Their relationship...

When did it become so good! ?

"It's no use! It's too late!"

Facing the doubts of his subordinates, Moria's eyes flickered for a moment, but he continued to laugh:

"Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back! We can't go back anymore!!!"

“Hehehe~”

From the moment he was pulled into the Pokémon world by Red, Moriah knew very well...

They already had no choice!

What they know and gain is so much!

Moriah was sure that if he had shown any sign of disobedience during the time he was with the Straw Hat Pirates, his fate would not have been any better than that of Blackbeard and Golden Lion.

Nowadays, Blackbeard has died and been made into the most perfect zombie, while Golden Lion has been turned into a vegetable-like existence by the Straw Hat Pirates and stored in Usopp's storage space.

Two big figures, one who was about to become a legend and the other who was already a legend, both met such a fate at the hands of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Moria had no doubt about the ruthlessness of Chihong and others.

Just the island whale Lab, who is currently carrying them on a high-speed voyage, has the power to destroy all their zombie armies on his own.

Given such an obvious gap in strength, he really couldn't bring himself to reject the Straw Hat Pirates.

But at the same time, having seen the endless tricks of the Straw Hat Pirates, he did not think this was a wrong decision.

"after all……"

“It’s unexpectedly refreshing to be able to go out to sea again.”

"Maybe I should have walked out of that sea area earlier."

Moria, who had recovered some strength under Chihong's ability, sighed in his heart.

Then he looked at the zombie Blackbeard who was locked in a special coffin next to him, with a bright light flashing in his eyes.

The powerful zombie army, the power of Pokémon, and the training methods of the six styles...

Moria was right.

They really...got so many good things from the Straw Hat Pirates.

“Hehehe…”

“Times have really changed!”

……

"What!? Another Celestial Dragon!?"

"Can't these pirates be a little creative?!"

"Why do you have to keep targeting the Celestial Dragons?!"

In New Marinford, Akainu, who received the information sent back by Aokiji, showed a rare look of pain and ugly expression on his face.

After much hesitation, he finally picked up a special Den Den Mushi on his desk and called the Five Elder Stars far away in the holy land of Marijoa.

Ten minutes later.

After being scolded harshly, Akainu sat on the marshal's chair with a gloomy face. His breath was so heavy that it sounded like a whistling strong wind, making a sharp sound.

At this moment, a curly head suddenly popped out from outside the office door.

The already gray-haired Sengoku showed an unprecedented ease. Looking at Akainu's expression, he immediately covered his mouth and chuckled. He no longer had the majesty and dignity of the previous Navy Admiral.

"Hey, hey, hey, I said that seat is not comfortable to sit in, right?"

"The temper of the Five Elders is not something that everyone can tolerate."

Click, click, click, click...

As soon as he finished speaking, Sengoku immediately transformed into an innocent old man passing by, eating the senbei he stole from Garp while passing by Akainu's door.

"This old thing..."

Looking at the leisurely Sengoku, Akainu couldn't help but curse in his heart.

But because of this, much of the annoyance he had felt after being scolded by the Five Elder Stars was also dissipated.

After thinking for a moment, he dialed the Den Den Mushi on the table again and began to mobilize naval forces.

At this moment, Akainu, who was making a phone call, wanted all these idiot Celestial Dragons in the world to die out as soon as possible more than anyone else!

The world situation is already so tense, but the Five Elders are still willing to mobilize a huge force for an idiot Celestial Dragon.

This approach, in the eyes of the Five Elders, saved the face of the World Government, but in the eyes of Akainu, the Navy Admiral...

This is such a pointless waste!

All over the world, the power of the revolutionary army was surging undercurrents, taking advantage of the chaos to launch liberation wars in many countries.

In Paradise, several tough new pirates have emerged one after another, and one of them has even been given a title that brings shame to the Navy - [Supernova]!

In the New World, Whitebeard's power continues to expand, and more and more pirates enter the New World in order to join the Whitebeard Pirates.

The other three Four Emperors were also secretly making small moves, making it impossible for people to feel at ease.

As for the navy, successive defeats caused the navy to lose a large number of soldiers and generals, resulting in a shortage of manpower and vacancies.

And because of the defeat, the navy's prestige in the world has also declined significantly, and the conscription plan has been difficult to implement.

The current navy is a huge mess.

Before becoming the Admiral of the Navy, Akainu thought he could use lightning speed to cut the Gordian knot and build a brand new navy team.

But the fact is...

No matter what he wanted to do, he would always be blocked from all sides.

Either the people below are inefficient, or the people above are looking for trouble and preventing things from proceeding smoothly.

So even though Akainu has been in office for some time, he still has not achieved anything.

If we can't completely eliminate Blackbeard and the forces behind him this time...

Then they will become a huge joke!

……

"I never expected that the plan would go so smoothly!"

night.

The Merry had already arrived in the waters near the Sabaody Archipelago and was drifting slowly on the sea as if waiting for something.

Chihong put down the microphone in his hand with a smile on his face, and a glimmer of expectation flashed in his eyes.

Accidentally affected by Zephyr's seastone device, he became weak and unable to use his fruit ability...

This was the reason that Chihong made up for Blackbeard's exit to Empress Hancock before leaving Nine Snake Island.

Although the reason here is not very worthy of scrutiny, Chihong also doesn't know what happened on Nine Snake Island during the day.

But judging from the fact that Aokiji and the navy fleet finally evacuated and headed towards the South China Sea...

Their plan was undoubtedly successful!

Next, we just need to wait for Moria to send the zombie Blackbeard to kill the Celestial Dragons...

By that time, even if Hancock's words were full of loopholes, no one would doubt Nine Snake Island.

And in this way, the Navy and the World Government will also send huge troops and fleets to encircle and suppress the new civilian hero "Marshall D. Teach"!

The entire Sabaody Archipelago and the Red Earth Continent will be left unattended.

That's right!

This time, Red plans to carry out a real heartbeat plan with the Straw Hat Pirates!

They are preparing...

Attack Marijoa, the holy land of the Celestial Dragons, and free the slaves imprisoned there, just like the adventurer Fisher Tiger did 13 years ago!

This is a real adventure, and it is also the first time that Red makes a special plan that puts the entire Straw Hat Pirates in danger!

Although I have discussed this with my partners for several nights and have gained the support of all of them...

But when this plan really came into view, Chihong inevitably became nervous.

"Really... I clearly said I would live forever..."

"Why do you have to be a hero at this moment?"

Looking at the moonlit sky with sparse stars, Chihong stood up and suddenly let out a long sigh.

"I hope it's not affected by Luffy's ability."

"Hmm!? My ability!?"

Luffy, who was standing next to Akane, was stunned for a moment when his name was suddenly called, then looked at Akane with curiosity.

But Chihong turned around and waved his hand gently.

"Nothing, just treat me as if I'm talking nonsense!"

"so……"

"Is everyone ready?!"

Chihong smiled and looked up, his eyes sweeping over the four people in front of him one by one.

The leisurely Luffy, the relaxed Zoro, Sanji who is still missing the gentle land of women, and Usopp who is extremely nervous but still pretends to be indifferent!

The four people in front of us are the four strongest fighters of the Straw Hat Pirates selected by Red!

In order to face the powerful enemy and the battle that might come soon, he planned to make a final sprint...

That is to defeat the four kings of the Pokémon League and complete the first round of the "Pokémon: Peel/De-Eye" game world!

The battle on Nine Snake Island has fully demonstrated the progress and strength of Luffy and others.

Except for Usopp who was there to make up the numbers, Red had enough confidence in the remaining three and believed that they would be able to defeat the Four Heavenly Kings and their Pokémon.

Therefore, he has secured the championship of this league today!

He said it!

Even Arceus can’t help!

……

wow——

The white light that spread throughout the world was shining brightly.

In the blink of an eye, Red's consciousness had successfully descended into the Pokémon world.

The place where he was at this moment was a magnificent square built in the style of a colosseum!

In the square, there are four huge stone pillars reaching into the sky, as if they were going to trap Chihong who was standing there.

And under the red feet is a floor paved with clean marble, exuding a solemn and dignified atmosphere.

Looking up, a heaven-like level of advancement stood in front of Red, becoming the last hurdle for him to enter the Pokémon League.

but……

Swish!

Red raised his hand, and a dark hole in another dimension instantly appeared in front of him and Usopp.

As the first battle to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings of the Alliance, Red chose Usopp, the weakest, to take the lead.

There is no particular reason.

I simply felt that if the other three were allowed to come, Usopp might not have a chance to show up.

Because the three main forces of the Straw Hat Pirates are now...

Terribly strong!!!

But no matter what, Usopp has been preparing for this battle for so long, and Red would feel embarrassed if he wasn't allowed to fight.

"Get ready, Usopp!"

"The guy who appears next is not someone who can be defeated by tricks!"

"……snort!"

Although he was extremely nervous, Usopp still responded stubbornly:

"Don't underestimate me, Red 1"

"Don't forget your last gym. It was you and I who challenged us!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Hearing this, Chi Hong laughed out loud, and then walked towards the other-dimensional cave, leaving behind a sentence:

"I have never looked down on you..."

"Usopp!"

shuh...

The huge glass automatic door slowly opened, and a magnificent and solemn hall instantly appeared in front of Akane and Usopp.

The two men had no time to be surprised and stepped forward directly, heading straight towards the corridor where they would challenge the Four Heavenly Kings.

The guard at the door checked the red gym badge as a routine matter and then let him in.

……

"You guys are finally here!"

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Walking through a dark corridor, a damp and cold breath suddenly hit them in the face, forming a layer of frost on the surface of Akane and Usopp's bodies, hanging crystal-like on their sweat hairs.

Then, the voice of an intellectual and mature older sister came from not far away.

"The first battle is against the Ice King!?"

"It's a little restrained."

Chihong, who walked out of the corridor, recognized the identity of the person who spoke at the first moment.

One of the four kings of the Pokémon League, the Ice King, Kona!

The ice attribute can just restrain the grass attribute that Usopp possesses.

although……

Usopp's fighting style has almost no connection with Pokémon moves.

"Be careful, Usopp."

"This woman is exactly the type you are not good at dealing with..."

After glancing at Kona's black stockings, Akane immediately reminded Usopp.

However, in response to Red's worry, Usopp unexpectedly broke into a grin.
