"Hate it! If you were hurt I would definitely save you!" Chopper said shyly while covering his face and twisting his body.

Just as Chopper was twisting his body shyly, a voice came: "I found you, Straw Hat Boy!"

Ling Tian and the others turned their heads and saw several navy soldiers coming towards them, led by their old acquaintance Smoker.

"Hey, smoke men!" Luffy greeted them without any fear after seeing Smoker.

Now that the Straw Hat Pirates have learned Haki, Smoker’s natural abilities don’t really matter to them.

Smoker was also stunned when he saw Luffy greeting him. Logically, they were the navy, and Luffy and his crew were pirates, not to mention that he was a natural devil fruit user. Shouldn't they run away when they saw him?

However, Smoker soon figured it out.

With Ling Tian's existence, they don't need to be afraid of this natural ability user at all.

"Straw Hat Boy..."

Smoker stared at Luffy, with complicated light in his eyes.

He knew that this seemingly careless guy in front of him actually had great strength and firm belief.

Smoker took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Straw Hat Boy, you can't escape this time! I must send you to Impel Down with my own hands!"

Luffy laughed, put his hands on his hips, and responded fearlessly: "Then give it a try, Smoke Man!"

After hearing Luffy's words, Smoker didn't hesitate at all. His body quickly became illusory and turned into a ball of white smoke, rushing towards Luffy and others.

As he moved, the air around him seemed to be stirred up, forming a strong airflow.

This airflow carried a sharp momentum, like a ferocious beast with its bloody mouth opened wide, trying to swallow Luffy and his crew.

Smoker's eyes were grim in the white smoke, fixed tightly on the target in front of him.

In his hand he held a specially made weapon that flashed with cold light, as if declaring his determination and strength.

Although Smoker knew very well why these people were not afraid of him at all, as a navy who upholds the concept of justice, he rushed towards Luffy at an astonishing speed!

In the blink of an eye, Smoker approached Luffy with endless majesty and determination, as if he was determined to completely defeat this man who might be the biggest threat on this sea in the future.

"bump……"

Accompanied by a dull crash sound that resounded all around, everyone was surprised to find that Smoker's extremely powerful ten hands were actually blocked by Luffy's hands covered with armed color domineering!

Luffy looked at Smoker with a grin: "Hehehe, Smoker, I am no longer the same person I was in Rogue Town!"

"In the past two years, we have been working hard to make progress!" he continued, with a determined gleam in his eyes.

After Luffy successfully blocked Smoker's attack, he showed a row of white teeth and smiled brilliantly.

However, Smoker was bewildered, thinking to himself: What on earth is this kid talking about? Two years? It has only been about two months since I came here from Rogue Town, how can it be two years?

Although he was confused by what Luffy said, Smoker acted decisively and quickly distanced himself from Luffy.

After all, as a person who was once a contemporary of Aokiji, he knew very well what mastering Armament Haki meant for natural ability users like them.

As we all know, the most powerful thing about users with natural abilities is their ability to achieve elemental transformation.

However, in the face of Armament Haki, elementalization becomes ineffective and completely loses its due advantages.

Smoker stared at the smirking Luffy in front of him with a serious expression, and exclaimed: "This is really unexpected, Straw Hat Boy. After just two months of not seeing you, you have already learned Armament Haki!"

"Well, well, let's stop the competition here!" Ling Tian looked at the two people who stood up to stop them.

After all, the affairs of Alabasta are more important to both the Straw Hat Pirates and the Navy.

After hearing Ling Tian's words, Luffy realized that now was not the time to fight here.

Although he did not personally experience the death of Ace, he has undergone two years of special training and has become much more mature than before.

Smoker noticed Luffy's actions and silently retracted his ten hands.

After all, with his current strength, he is probably no match for the Straw Hat Boy.

"Okay, come with me." Seeing the two men stop, Ling Tian led Luffy and others away.

"Let's follow." Smoker thought for a moment and finally decided to keep up with them.

However, when Smoker finished speaking, he saw Tashigi staring at a girl in the Straw Hat Pirates.

There was an indescribable look in her eyes, as if she was deeply attracted by something.

"What's wrong, Tashigi?" Smoker asked in confusion.

Tashigi didn't seem to hear Smoker's question and was still immersed in her own thoughts.

After a while, she came back to her senses and muttered to herself, "That... looks exactly like me."

Smoker frowned and followed Tashigi's gaze.

Sure enough, he also found the girl. The two looked at each other, and a strange feeling surged in their hearts.

The girl had long black hair and clear, bright eyes.

Her face was exactly the same as Tashigi's, as if they were carved from the same mold.

If they were not in different camps, people would probably mistake them for twin sisters!

Smoker couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Who is this girl? Why does she look so much like Tashigi? Is there some secret hidden in this? A series of questions came to my mind.

Dashiqi's mood at the moment was even more complicated. She had never thought that there would be someone who looked so much like her.

Although the girl looked exactly like Tashigi, Smoker didn't think too much about it. He decided to follow her for now and then decide.

In a short moment, Ling Tian led the Straw Hat Pirates and the naval forces following behind them to Albana, the capital of Alabasta.

"Come with me, I will explain to you everything that happened in Alabasta later!" Ling Tian didn't care whether the group of navy behind him could hear what he said. He strode into the city of Albana without hesitation.

When the soldiers on top of the castle saw Ling Tian, ​​they quickly opened the castle gate.

It is obvious that they are planning to let these pirates in.
