Naruto: Throne of the Holy Hand

"Haha, that boy seems to be quite good at fighting." Red-haired Shanks laughed, but was secretly surprised. He knew Hawkeye's strength. To make Hawkeye show such a fighting look, this person's swordsmanship must be no worse than Hawkeye's. Then Shanks said, "Come on, let's have a drink together. My ship is going to the snowy mountains. I heard that the scenery there is very beautiful. Hawkeye, you should come too."

At the same time, Ace and Namikaze Meidi's pirate ship were heading towards Red Hair Shanks' ship. Ace accidentally learned about Shanks, and he really wanted to see the strength of Shanks, one of the Four Emperors.

Ace's crew was friendly to Namikaze Meidi at first because he was Ace's friend. However, when the bounty on Namikaze Meidi spread across the sea, they all looked at Namikaze Meidi in surprise, and even Ace was stunned.

At this moment, Namikaze Meidi and Ace were standing on Namikaze Meidi's pirate ship. Ace said hesitantly, "We are about to meet Shanks. Do you think that we are making trouble out of nothing if we suddenly go to see such a big shot?"

Even the bold Ace felt somewhat nervous when facing Red-Haired Shanks, one of the Four Legendary Emperors.

"Don't worry, I've heard of Shanks. He has a bold and easy-going personality." Namikaze Meidi comforted.

"Yeah, that would be great." Ace nodded, thinking that Shanks would not make things difficult for them for Luffy's sake.

At this time, a proud pirate from Ace's Spade Pirates hurriedly jumped onto Namikaze Hades' ship and said to Namikaze Hades and Ace: "Oh no, I found that there are many navy ships chasing us from behind, led by the White Hunter."

"They caught up so quickly?" Namikaze Hades knew that his whereabouts would be exposed after he defeated Crocodile, but he didn't expect the navy to come so quickly.

At this moment, Ace and the others looked at Namikaze Meidi, and the members of the Spade Pirates regarded Namikaze Meidi as their core. Ace was not angry, he secretly admired Namikaze Meidi's achievements. Namikaze Meidi was wondering how the World Government would deal with him, and the White Hunter who led the group was the Smoke Man who had been defeated by him before.

Emperor Namikaze understood that the White Hunter Smoker must be feeling upset at this moment!

Finally, the navy ship stopped next to Namikaze Meidi's ship. Smoker stood on the deck of the navy ship and said to Namikaze Meidi: "Pirate Namikaze Meidi, the World Government, in view of your strength and the fact that you have not caused too much harm, hereby invites you to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

Smoker said these words slowly, but his heart was in agony, and the veins on his forehead were bulging with anger. What were those old guys in the World Government thinking? They must have known that Namikaze Meidi had defeated him, but they actually asked him to recruit Namikaze Meidi to become a Shichibukai! Isn't this obviously embarrassing for Smoker?

"You want me to become one of the Seven Warlords? What are the benefits of becoming one of the Seven Warlords?" Namikaze Meidi looked at Smoker and asked with a smile...

At the same time, Namikaze noticed a pink-haired woman standing behind Smoker, her beautiful eyes flashing with cold light. Namikaze recognized her as Tina, known as the "Black Prison". Seeing Namikaze's arrogant look, Tina was ready to take action. Smoker noticed her intention and quickly reached out to stop her: "You are no match for him."

Although Smoker was unhappy, he knew the seriousness of the matter. Besides, Namikaze Hades was too powerful and Tina was definitely no match for him.

"The so-called Seven Warlords of the Sea are the seven great pirates recognized by the World Government. They possess destructive power and tremendous combat power that can rival a country. Only those who are famous or have combat capabilities strong enough to shock everyone are qualified to be selected as the Seven Warlords of the Sea. After becoming a Seven Warlords of the Sea, the original bounty order will be cancelled, and the World Government will no longer pursue previous crimes. In addition, in order to maintain the 'cooperative relationship' of the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea', the World Government will also agree to their 'individual requests'." Smoker suppressed his inner anger and said to Namikaze Hades.

Smoker hopes that Namikaze Meitei will not become one of the Shichibukai. If he becomes one of the Shichibukai, Smoker will no longer have the power to capture him.

At the same time, the World Government made such a decision. Smoker was also confused at first. They had issued a bounty of 500 million, but they wanted him to become a Shichibukai. Why? Now he thought, maybe it was because of the strength of Namikaze Meidi! Because there must be someone in the top of the World Government who knows the strength of Namikaze Meidi, so they don't want the navy to be his enemy.

He knew that the person who offered a bounty on him was Sengoku! And the one who helped him was Garp. Garp had never wanted Namikaze Meidi to become a pirate, but now Namikaze Meidi has been regarded as a pirate by the World Government, and the only thing Garp could do for him was to make him one of the "Seven Warlords of the Sea".

But Namikaze Hades didn't want to accept Garp's kindness! He didn't want to be controlled by others! The Navy wanted him to be a pawn, but Namikaze Hades would never agree.

Seeing Namikaze Hades' disappointed expression, Smoker gnashed his teeth in anger. The World Government had already made such a compromise, but this guy was still not satisfied?

However, Smoker hopes that Namikaze will reject the World Government, as he vows to defeat Namikaze no matter how much effort it takes.

"Become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea? Haha, I, Namikaze Meidi, don't have that interest. What I want is freedom and power. I will never let the World Government control me." Namikaze Meidi rejected the glory that many pirates dreamed of without hesitation.

As soon as he said this, the relationship between Namikaze Meidi and the World Government was determined - enemies. Namikaze Meidi also knew that refusing to become a Shichibukai was a disrespect to the World Government.

But Namikaze Meidi didn't care about that at all. The World Government wanted to use his status as a Seven Warlord to bind him and make him serve them? Namikaze Meidi thought that this was simply a fantasy of the Navy.

"Great!" Smoker was slightly shocked when he saw Namikaze Hades' refusal. Namikaze Hades was still calm at this moment and didn't take the World Government seriously?

Afterwards, Smoker did not talk much with Namikaze and left with the navy. On the way back, Smoker looked at Tina and said, "We must tell those stubborn senior officials that Namikaze is not a simple person. To deal with him, we must send out the generals."

“Is he really that strong?” Tina asked in surprise.

"He has the qualities of a king!" Smoker frowned as he thought of the unfathomable strength of Emperor Namikaze in Rogue Town. "He has domineering power! And in my opinion, it should be the domineering color domineering power. Only one person in a million can possess this ability."

"......" Hearing this, Tina and the other navy officers showed surprised expressions.

And Namikaze Hades and his group continued to move in the direction of Red-Haired Shanks! Red-Haired Shanks and his group had already entered the Great Snow Mountain, which was a snowy mountain on the island.

When Namikaze and his companions arrived at the island, Namikaze was surprised to find a small boat parked outside the island. It was a raft! There was a flag hanging on the raft.

Namikaze Hades, Ace and the others didn't understand the meaning of the flag, but Robin and Vivi from Baroque Works were stunned when they saw the flag and looked at each other in disbelief.

"I didn't expect Hawkeye Mihawk to be here too?" Robin said with a frown.

Just as Namikaze Meidi and his crew stopped the boat and prepared to go to the island, a dozen armed pirates appeared on the island.

"Please stay. This island is now occupied by our Red Hair Pirates. Please leave here." The members of the Red Hair Pirates spoke very politely and were not as arrogant as other pirates.

Seeing this scene, Namikaze Hades has roughly understood the character of Red Hair Shanks! There are good and bad navy, and pirates are no exception!

At this time, Ace stepped forward and said, "Hello, I am Luffy's brother, Ace, I want to meet Shanks, please inform him."

"Luffy's brother?" These little pirates didn't know the relationship between Red-haired Shanks and Luffy, but one of them nodded and hurried into the city to report.

After a while, the navy man came back in a hurry and said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting. You can go in now."

Ace nodded and asked the members of the Spade Pirates to stay and look after the ship, while he, Namikaze Meitei, Robin, Nami and Vivi entered the island.

And in the caves of the snowy mountains.

"Do you have any friends coming?" Hawkeye asked slowly, holding a glass of wine.

"Yes! He is Luffy's brother. It's so strange. I didn't know Luffy had a brother." Red-haired Shanks was confused at first, then he laughed happily.

He has always valued Luffy!

He also wanted to see what kind of person Luffy's brother was. When Red-Haired Shanks was talking to Hawkeye Mihawk, Namikaze Hades and the others had already entered the cave.

"Huh? Hawkeye, the guy you're interested in is here too?" Red-haired Shanks was slightly stunned when he saw Namikaze Hades. The boy's eyes were sharper than those on the wanted poster, and then he smiled at Hawkeye.

Then, Red-haired Shanks looked at Ace, and was even more stunned... How could he be so similar to him...

But he covered it up cleverly.

At this time, Hawkeye and Namikaze Hades' sharp eyes had already met! Although Hawkeye did not draw his sword at this time, Namikaze Hades had already felt an extremely powerful sword intent! Similarly, Namikaze Hades felt the breath of an ancient beast from Red-haired Shanks.

"It was really worth the trip! I actually met two masters from One Piece." Namikaze Hades looked at Hawkeye coldly. If Shanks hadn't been there, he really wanted to compete with Hawkeye in swordsmanship!

At this moment, Ace looked at Shanks and said politely, "You are the Shanks that Luffy often mentioned, right? I am his brother. Thank you so much for saving Luffy."

"Haha, you're welcome. I didn't expect Luffy actually had a brother! How is he now? Does he still want to be the Pirate King?" Shanks smiled happily, recalling the days with little Luffy, his eyes full of nostalgia. Those important people to Red-Haired Shanks also remembered the kid who kept shouting that he wanted to be the Pirate King, and couldn't help laughing.
