Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 408: Four parties gather together (asking for monthly tickets~)

Above the blue sky, in the fairyland shrouded by clouds, a huge ship pierced through the stable clouds, swept by the howling gale and moved quickly forward.

"Wuhu~Take off~!"

Luffy, standing at the bow of the Merry, opened his arms excitedly, looking at the unobstructed view below, a big smile appeared on his face that he hadn't seen in a long time.

Behind him, the members of the Straw Hat Pirates stood in different corners of the deck, doing their own things.

Although it was flying rapidly in the sky, with little Mary's precise control, the entire ship was as smooth as sailing on the ground, and even more stable than sailing on the sea.

Usopp and a few men were standing mysteriously in a corner, seemingly preparing some exclusive props and costumes for the celebration, and sounds of laughter could be heard from time to time.

Even the usually calm old Jinbei was forced to change into a floral shirt after being pulled by several people.

On the second floor of the deck, in the orange orchard that belonged exclusively to Nami, Robin, Nami and Uta were lying comfortably on the sun loungers, enjoying their rare leisure time.

Sanji had pink stars in his eyes and a towel hanging from one hand, standing by the three women like a servant.

His old rival Zoro, on the other hand, was sitting cross-legged quietly in a corner, with three expensive-looking knife racks in front of him. He placed his long swords on them one by one, and then used some professional equipment to maintain the knives.

"It seems that everyone has been suppressed for too long recently~"

Chihong, who had a clear view of everyone's condition, sighed in his heart.

That's right.

Ever since they defeated the Big Mom Pirates and occupied the former Wano Sea, they have not had a moment's rest.

After defeating the Four Emperors, before he could get familiar with the situation in the Wano Sea, he had to fight against the joint forces of the World Government and the Navy.

After cleaning up the world government, the partners started to get busy with various things, starting companies, doing scientific research...

Even Luffy, Zoro and the others almost locked themselves in the Spirit Time Chamber, training for three times longer than usual.

To the outside world, perhaps only two or three months have passed.

But for them, they have not had any contact with the outside world for almost a year.

“Ignore this problem.”

Thinking of this, Chihong couldn't help but shook his head slightly.

Although with Luffy and the others' intelligence, as long as they have a clear goal and reason, a mere year of hard training is nothing.

but……

There is no need for that!!!

You already have the strength of Tongtiandai, so why do you have to do sneaky things?

Now all the high-ranking naval officers are his people!

The World Government was also frightened by the two wars and has now begun to target the Revolutionary Army that is causing trouble around the world.

In the underground world, there are Stussy and Akatsuki organizations, and no intelligence in the world can escape their eyes and ears.

Apart from the dangers from nature, the world seems to be theirs to do as they please.

"Nothing big will happen in the near future."

"Just right!"

"During this time, let's enjoy the magic of the new world!"

Because he robbed Marijoa at the beginning and was on the World Government's must-kill list, even Red himself almost forgot about it...

Their original intention of going out to sea was to take risks!

Now that everything has been settled, let this pirate celebration hosted by former members of One Piece Roger be their first official battle in the New World!

He picked up the red orange juice and took a sip, and a smile that had not been seen for a long time appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Luffy and others are not the only ones who are depressed.

He inexplicably became the big brother of the Straw Hat Pirates, and developed them to such a level of red in such a short period of time. How could he not have been under constant repression?

……

……

"Captain Cavendish, we have arrived!"

An elegant pirate ship with a white horse-shaped bow slowly docked at the coast.

Slyman, the handsome vice-captain of the Pirate Group, immediately knocked on the captain's door and reported to Cavendish who was packing his luggage in the room.

"Ah, I've heard it~"

Cavendish, admiring his handsome face in the mirror, waved his hand calmly.

But the next second, after he adjusted his collar, he raised the corner of his mouth and laughed suddenly:

"The legendary treasure of the Pirate King!?"

"Although I don't know whether it's true or not, if I can get it from among thousands of pirates, it will definitely help me to top the headlines tomorrow!"

"My good name, Cavendish, will eventually become famous across the sea again!"

Swish!

With a sudden swing of the sharp Western rapier, a newspaper on the table was easily cut in half.

There is no meaning for a newspaper that does not record the good name of Cavendish!!!

"Let's go! Let me see what kind of people are here today!"

tread!

Pushing open the cabin door suddenly, Cavendish stepped directly onto the deck.

The first thing that caught his ears was the screams coming from several surrounding pirate ships.

"Wow! That guy... isn't that the pirate nobleman Cavendish with a bounty of 330 million berries? Why is he attending this celebration?!"

"Nonsense! If we can come, then of course he can come too!"

"After all, no matter how handsome he is, he can't erase the fact that he is a pirate!"

"Damn it! Doesn't this greatly reduce our chances of getting the treasure?!"

"........."

"........."

“What a joyful atmosphere!!!”

Hearing the praises coming from the surrounding pirates, a vain smile suddenly appeared on Cavendish's face.

At this moment, he felt as if he was in the midst of flowers in his dream, with butterflies flying all around him, bringing flowers and praises.

But at this moment, a sudden exclamation interrupted his fantasy.

"Hey, hey, hey! What is that!?"

Wow~!

There was a noticeable tremor.

I saw a huge ship suddenly break into a gathering of small boats, and then rush over with its terrifying body.

The waves it created even caused many pirate ships to capsize.

“That…that is!!!”

A pirate on the pirate ship next to Cavendish suddenly raised his hands up in fear.

Everyone's eyes also looked over.

"That's... the flag of the New Giant Pirates!!!"

"New Giant Pirates!?"

"Are they the giant warriors who originally served as mercenaries for the various kingdoms, but then suddenly became pirates for some unknown reason?!"

"That's right! It's them!"

"Quick! Get out of the way!"

"Their ship is about to hit us!!!"

"Wait a minute! Look... a lot of ships suddenly appeared over there!"

"That...that's the flag of the Yotamaria Grand Fleet!"

"Even they're here! Wait... so many boats, how many people are there!?"

"It's not just the Yotamaria Fleet! Look over there! That's the Flower Country's Hachiho Navy! Why are they here to attend the pirate event too!?"

"The Edeo Pirates... The Phoenix Pirates... The Caribou Pirates..."

"Is this the celebration for pirates? It really is... there are so many strong people!!!"

Seeing the famous guys appearing one after another on the sea, all the pirates fell into a frenzy!

Perhaps in their opinion, this is how this grand event should be! This is the carnival for pirates!!!

however……

Just as everyone was cheering, an unexpected black shadow suddenly whizzed past over their heads.

Huh~!

A howling gale suddenly blew up, suddenly opening the sails on all the pirate ships below, causing all the hulls to suddenly stumble due to inertia.

"Hey~"

Many pirates lost their balance and fell to the ground.

But more people were deeply attracted by the figure passing by the sky.

"I...I didn't see it wrong!?"

On the ship of the Caribou Pirates, an ugly, long-faced man rubbed his eyes in surprise, then looked at the black shadow that had flown away with an increasingly shocked expression.

The next moment, he suddenly panicked and took out a series of bounty warrants from his pocket, and then quickly flipped through them.

Soon, his eyes landed on the strangest bounty.

It is strange because the bounty on this warrant is not for a pirate or a villain, but for a pirate ship!

That's right!

It's a pirate ship!

Moreover, the bounty for this pirate ship is as high as 13 billion berries!

"No doubt about it! That is... the ship of the Four Emperors, the Straw Hat Pirates!!!"

Capri suddenly raised his head, and greed flashed in his evil eyes.

"I never thought that such a grand event would attract even the Four Emperors' pirate groups!"

"I don't know how many of them are here, but with so many pirates here, maybe."

"Giggle cluck..."

……

……

"Wuhu~This is so cool!!!"

On the bow of the Merry, at Luffy's exclusive seat.

Luffy was seen standing there steadily with his feet, looking at the pirate ships and pirate flags passing by one by one below him, his whole face filled with an excited smile.

This feeling is really great!

"Hey, Red, that's the festival venue, right?!"

Usopp, who had taken out a colorful festive outfit from somewhere, suddenly pointed his hand into the distance and asked loudly.

"That's right, the opening ceremony will be held there!"

"But there's still a long time before the opening ceremony begins, so let's go to the stall area next door to see if there's anything fun to do!"

"Yeah! Are you going to Taobao? I want to go! I want to go!"

Little Chopper jumped up and down excitedly, resting his two hooves on the railing of the boat and leaning his head downwards with all his strength.

"Merry, Nika, you two are coming too!?"

Seeing his companions happy, Chi Hong smiled from the bottom of his heart and asked the two special members of the pirate group at the railing.

As her level increases, Mary, in ghost form, can leave the ship and move freely.

Although the range of action must be within a certain distance from the ship, with Merry's current strength, this range is at least enough for him to go to a market with the Straw Hat Pirates.

At worst, we can just let the Merry stay in the air and maintain Merry's operations on the ground.

"Okay~Okay~"

Upon hearing Chihong's invitation, Little Meli and Little Nika flew over happily.

Perhaps because they are in the same ghost form, the relationship between these two little guys is now very good.

"So……"

Chihong stretched out one arm and smiled slightly:

“This is a rare relaxing activity, so let’s have as much fun as possible!!!”

"Oh!!!"

The Straw Hats laughed and responded.

Even Zoro, who had no interest in the celebration, began to look forward to the fine wine that might appear at the market later.

……

……

at the same time.

Located on a hidden tower behind the celebration venue.

A soldier wearing a beret ran hurriedly into a room where he could observe all directions of the island.

"No... It's bad, Chief Festa!"

"The Four... The Four Emperors have come to this island!!!"

"What!!!!?"

A shrill scream suddenly rang out in the dim operations room.

However, the panic and fear that the reporting soldiers expected did not appear on the face of their leader Festa.

Instead, after hearing his report, Festa actually jumped directly on the table and landed next to the one-way glass that could observe the outside world, then stretched out a monocular telescope and quickly searched.

Soon, he saw the Merry that caused a commotion in the market, and the pirate flag flying on the highest mast of the Merry!

"Really! It's true!!!"

"My celebration actually attracted the Four Emperors' Pirate Group!!!"

"Hahahahaha..."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!"

"My plan! It's going to work!!!"

A hoarse and rough laughter suddenly rang out from the top of the tall tower.

What kind of celebration carnival belongs to pirates? !

That was just a means for him to trick these idiot pirates here!

Damn Roger, he created this boring era of pirates!

What dream!? What freedom!?

It's all fake!!!

In this world, only war is real!!!

"I must surpass you, Roger!"

"Then……"

"Creating an era full of war!!!"

"Yeah ha ha ha..."

Festa is a veteran pirate who lived in the same era as Roger and was once a shining star.

It’s a pity that in that legendary era, he was just a loser who was beaten to a pulp due to his weak strength!

There was even a time when people thought he had already died.

But now, he has been resurrected again and brought something new to the world...

war! ! !

War, of course, does not refer to the minor fights between dozens or at most hundreds of pirates, like playing house!

Only a battle that affects one or even several countries, plunges the entire world into chaos, and causes countless casualties can be called a war!!!

"The era of pirates is over!!!"

Festa suppressed his pounding heart, but in his mind he was frantically planning what to do next so that the Four Emperors could become his chess pieces and be manipulated by him.
