Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

Chapter 413: The Gate to Eternal Life (asking for monthly ticket~)

As the Straw Hat Pirates grow stronger, Red's gaze is no longer limited to the native planet of the pirate world.

Just like Luffy, after seeing the vastness of the starry sky, he developed a longing for that place.

With a red heart, one also wants to explore the true meaning of the universe.

After all, in the cover story of the One Piece anime, there were space pirates who appeared.

Coupled with the habitable living environment in the universe, it can be expected that...

Outside of the pirate world, there must be a much larger cosmic society.

Whether this society is on the orderly side like planetary civilization, or on the chaotic side like the dark forest, Chihong has no idea.

The biggest difficulty in exploring the mysteries of the universe is not just power and technology...

What is more important is life span!!!

In the world of pirates, time is a shackle that no one can escape.

Even those as powerful as Whitebeard, Garp and others will eventually become much weaker due to aging, until the day comes when they can no longer swing their fists.

It is totally a pipe dream to want to explore the mysterious starry sky with the highlight moments of twenty or thirty years.

Therefore, before the official action, what Chihong wanted to do most... was to extend the lifespan of his companions, so that they would not collapse into the void due to their lifespan before they had explored anything.

Even Chihong, who possesses a system, cannot avoid this.

And now, with the appearance of Redfield in front of him, Chihong suddenly felt like he had found the last piece of the puzzle!

Can the power of the Operation Fruit be replicated through Vegapunk's technology? Can clones perform immortality surgery through green blood technology? Will there be any side effects after undergoing immortality surgery?

Until these problems can be figured out, Red doesn't dare to use the power of the Ope Ope Fruit to extend the lifespan of his companions.

But now... he has a new idea!

Soul Fruit + Vampire Fruit!!!

These two fruits, one can take away the soul of others and prolong the life of the soul, and the other can absorb the power of blood and food and prolong the life of the body.

Isn't the combination of the two a unique way to eternal life? !

Although both of these abilities strengthen themselves by harming the interests of others, it is not easy to find a few good people in the world of pirates, but it is really easy to find a group of scum!

The only problem now is...

Both of these fruit abilities have their respective owners.

Red and the others either killed Big Mom and Redfield, or wandered aimlessly on the sea searching for the abilities of the two fruits again.

Or, use Vegapunk's technology to copy the abilities of these two fruits.

But no matter what, the door to eternal life has been opened to them.

Swish!

The red figure suddenly flashed and appeared beside Luffy, smiling at him and said:

"Luffy, I'll leave that big guy to you later!"

"I'll deal with the other guy myself!"

"Ah? Red, are you going to play too?!"

Zoro, who was not far from here, heard the conversation between Red and Luffy and was immediately disappointed.

After all, he could feel that the two guys who suddenly appeared were terribly powerful!

Even now, he is probably no match for these two guys.

but!

For Zoro at this stage, being able to fight with such a strong man is something he has been dreaming of for a long time!

But Chihong smiled and waved his hand:

"Don't forget, you have more important things to do!"

"Remember what we said before we set sail?!"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it won't be long before the man you've been dreaming of appears!"

"Don't say things so strangely, hey!"

Zoro complained in dissatisfaction, but when he thought about the possible battle that might happen next, he immediately put away his three swords and waited quietly.

At the same time, seeing the two people appear, some knowledgeable pirates also shouted in fear:

"Those...those two people...aren't they the legendary Devil's Offspring Barrett and the Lone Red Redfield!?"

"Why are the two of them here?!"

Next to Cavendish, a sturdy man screamed in shock.

When Cavendish heard this, he was stunned, then he gritted his teeth viciously.

"Damn it! We've all been fooled!"

Two of the most powerful men from the last era suddenly appeared here together. If you say there is nothing fishy going on, even ghosts would not believe it!

Just as Cavendish was thinking this, the host suddenly shouted in surprise from the speakers that had not been damaged:

"Oh my god! How is this possible!?"

"Why... would the navy fleet appear here!?"

"Festal, you bastard! Didn't you say you had already taken care of the navy?!"

Obviously, this host who came from a pirate background and Festa were just partners.

Looking at the naval fleet that was gradually surrounding the island, he cursed loudly, then immediately threw down the microphone in panic and prepared to run away.

A shrill busy tone came from the speaker, as if it was a signal that a war had begun.

Feelings of fear and panic instantly enveloped every pirate.

When Festa heard the host's insults before he ran away, he smiled cunningly in the war room.

"Hehehe...I did make arrangements with the navy."

"But the purpose of this arrangement is not to prevent them from coming to this island~"

"Hahahahaha..."

"The plan has begun!!!"

As he watched the naval fleet gradually surrounding the island above the screen, the smile on his face gradually turned crazy.

……

……

At the same time, in the distant open sea.

On a leading naval warship.

"Admiral Fujitora, the target island provided by Festa is ahead."

Smoker, the smoke man who is a navy but looks more ferocious than pirates, was forced to stay inactive for more than a year due to his unclear conflicts with pirates. Finally, the day came when his old friend Aokiji took over the position!

As a result, he also ushered in a change in reputation. With his outstanding strength, he was awarded the rank of vice admiral of the navy and is currently under the command of Admiral Fujitora Issho.

"Ah."

Although he was blind, he seemed to see farther than Smoker. He nodded and then a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"You really are always at the center of the world, Mr. Luffy and the others..."

In front of Smoker, Yixiao never hid his relationship with the Straw Hat Pirates.

After all, the power of Pokémon in both of them allows them to see the difference between each other and other people in the pirate world as soon as they meet.

These things cannot be covered up no matter how hard you try.

"........."

It's just...listening to Yixiao saying all this to him so recklessly, he subconsciously looked around as he wanted to report this to Aokiji for who knows how many times.

After making sure that only he could hear these words, Smoker sighed silently.

Little did he know... on this entire ship, except for him who was a genuine navy officer, all other accompanying personnel were from the revolutionary army.

Smoker, who thought he was an undercover agent, might never understand this in his lifetime...

What is it like to be surrounded by a group of undercover agents?

……

……

"How dare you say such a thing so brazenly!"

"What a ridiculous little devil!"

the other side.

Hearing that Chihong and others were actually discussing the distribution of opponents, Barrett and Redfield, who had just appeared, immediately showed disdainful expressions.

"I remember you!"

Barrett suddenly raised his head and stared at Luffy with fierce eyes.

"You are the captain of the Four Emperors Straw Hat Pirates who has been causing a lot of trouble on the sea recently, right?!"

"How sad~"

"It seems that Whitebeard is not as strong and healthy as the newspapers say. He actually lets guys like you be on equal footing with him."

In Barrett's opinion, Luffy and others are just a group of lucky people who have no idea what true power is.

It's time to save them.

However, listening to Barrett's ridicule, Luffy seemed to have lost his mind and suddenly grasped the least important point:

"Do you know Uncle Whitebeard?"

"Um!?"

Barrett was suddenly stunned by Luffy's question.

But after a moment, he sneered and said:

"Of course!"

"He is my old rival!"

"After I finish dealing with things here, I will first use his head as a sacrifice to let the world know..."

"Who is the real [World's Strongest Man]!"

"Oh?! So, you are as strong as Uncle Whitebeard!?"

Luffy, who suddenly became interested for some reason, also showed a bright smile on his face, and asked Barrett with his fists clenched.

Barrera immediately responded:

"No!"

"I'm stronger than him!!!"

“That’s great!!!”

Luffy suddenly burst out laughing.

"I've wanted to compete with Uncle Whitebeard for a long time!"

"It's just that he is Ace's acknowledged father, and he is so old, I have never been able to bring him up..."

"If you are stronger than Uncle Whitebeard, then as long as I defeat you, does that mean I can defeat Uncle Whitebeard!?"

Excited Luffy jumped directly in front of Barrett.

White energy suddenly spread out from his body like flames.

At the same time, a dazzling white light suddenly burst out from his body.

"Fifth gear! And..."

"Pokémon...Evolve!!!"

Swah——

Covered by the light, Luffy's body expanded rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, they reached a height of nearly ten meters.

Although there is still a big gap between him and giants like Hailding, the energy fluctuations that naturally emanate from his body as he evolves make everyone present open their mouths in amazement.

"That...that is the true power of the Four Emperors!?"

Feeling the powerful aura that made him afraid to take a step forward despite his small stature, Hailding suddenly smiled bitterly.

He had fought a few punches with Luffy, and although he was at a disadvantage, he still thought that the gap between himself and the Four Emperors was not much. But at this moment, he completely faced the reality.

Fortunately, he didn't say anything outrageous just now.

Otherwise, with his huge body, I really don’t know where there would be a crack in the ground for him to squeeze into.

Snapped.

The light dissipated.

Facing Barrett, whom Red calls a strong man, Luffy directly enters his strongest combat form.

"Um!?"

Feeling the sudden change in Luffy's aura, both Barrett and Redfield were stunned.

Especially Redfield...

He has possessed a powerful talent for Observation Haki since he was young, and can use Observation Haki like a wave to see through people's hearts.

It was also because he had seen so much darkness in people's hearts since he was a child that he developed the habit of living alone.

At this moment, Luffy, whose strength was only at the level of the Seven Warlords, suddenly exuded an aura that made him feel terrified...

Redfield's heart trembled involuntarily, and he had a bad feeling.

Their plan...will there be any problem?!

Before he could react...

boom! ! !

A huge noise suddenly came from beside him.

Luffy clearly did nothing, but Barrett, who was confronting him, seemed to be attacked from behind. It was as if he was hit hard by a punch from the ground, and he rushed into the air like a cannonball.

"what?!"

Barrett was shocked. He quickly crossed his arms in front of him and wrapped his whole body with armed color domineering.

The next second, Luffy, who was already prepared, clenched his fists and imitated the moves that Helding had used in the previous fight...

"Rubber rubber... white heavy hammer!!!"

boom! ! !

Barrett, who had just taken off, had no time to fly high before he was suddenly knocked down by Luffy's punch.

Under the terrifying force, his body actually shattered the floating island under the feet of Luffy and others again, breaking it into several pieces that floated around.

"This...how is this possible!?"

Redfield's eyes twitched.

A force that can easily split an island apart...

Although it was just a floating island without foundations, Redfield had only seen such terrifying power in Roger, Whitebeard and others.

"impossible!"

His figure flashed, and he turned directly into a vampire, looking extremely similar to Vamdemon in Digimon.

With the help of his wings, he flew directly into the air, trying to observe Luffy from a distance.

But at this moment...

"Nothing is impossible, Senior Redfield!"

Swish!

A powerful figure suddenly appeared behind him, emitting an aura that he dared not underestimate.

"In this era, there is no stage that can support you anymore!"

"Or……"

"You have been abandoned by the times!!!"

"Time Roars!!!"

boom! ! !

A surge of energy suddenly gushed out from the red palm, as if distorting time, avoiding Redfield's observation Haki and appearing directly behind him.

Time Roar has the power to distort time and cause unknown levels of attack on the enemy.

Although the damage it causes will vary depending on the overall strength of the person who releases it.

But one thing is certain...

The Roar of Time can indeed distort time. Even Katakuri, who has the ability to predict the future, cannot predict his appearance.

It is like a small dot that was suddenly added into the long river of time. It cannot be predicted by the past, nor can it be traced back by the future!

simply put……

It is the best trick against those who have strong observation Haki!

"Uh-huh~"

Redfield, who was hit by the roar of time, suddenly let out a scream.

It seemed that the power to distort time had extra damaging effects on this rotten old man.

Soon, he was knocked down by the power of Time's Roar, just like Barrett before him.

But Red is not Luffy after all, and does not have the terrifying power to destroy an island.

So it was only able to smash Redfield into the ground a few dozen meters.

That’s all…
