Taoist priest, who is so popular in One Piece

"Searching..."

"Search successful..."

"The target is four people."

"Aoki Touri, one of the former captains of the Giant Pirates, with a bounty of 1 million berries, disappeared 100 years ago."

"Red Oni Broge, former captain of the Giant Pirates, with a bounty of 1 million berries, disappeared 100 years ago."

"Kai and Oimo, former members of the Giant Pirates, were recruited by the World Government after the disbandment of the Pirates and became the gate guards of Judicial Island. They later defected during the Straw Hat Pirates' capture of Judicial Island."

Looking at the four giants standing on the giant ship opposite, the pacifists who were not blown to pieces reported their information.

-

"Hehehehe, I didn't expect that after a hundred years, there are still people who remember us, Brockie."

Dongli, holding a shield and a sword, laughed.

"Ahahahaha, how could they not remember us, Donli."

Broki, who was carrying a huge axe on his shoulder, spoke directly: "After all, these guys were the ones who deceived our partners."

"That's right," Dongli said, looking at Kai and Ouimo who were showing embarrassed expressions behind him, "You actually let our friends serve as your guards. This is simply unforgivable!"

"Besides, you are going to attack our friends," Broge shouted, brandishing the giant axe in his hand, "The Straw Hat Pirates are our friends! Attacking them is a provocation to us!"

“So here we are!!!”

As Broki finished his words, the four giants jumped up at the same time and landed on the port of Marinford.

Then he turned around and faced Zhan Taomaru and the group of pacifists.

Although no one said anything, just by looking at their expressions, Zhan Taomaru knew what they meant.

【This road is blocked.】

Seeing this scene, Sengoku said, "Kizaru, you go there. Compared with high-end combat power, the way to end the battle faster is to deal with those large pirate forces as soon as possible."

"In that case, let me make a trip."

Kizaru did not comment on what Sengoku said. In the current battlefield, he was the only one who could achieve Sengoku's goal.

But just when Kizaru wanted to transform into a point of light, a bird claw wrapped in blue flames and armed color domineering fell from the sky!

[Phoenix Seal!!!]

boom!

Kizaru emerged from the light and was blasted to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.

But Marco, who had succeeded in his attack, did not relax. He flapped his wings and slowly descended, his eyes fixed on the smoke.

As expected, Kizaru's figure slowly walked out of the smoke and dust, and there wasn't even much dirt on his body.

"Captain Whitebeard, you took so many lasers from me, how could you recover so quickly?"

Kizaru showed a standard obscene expression: "It is indeed a scary monster."

"But, do you really want to stop me?"

Marco was unmoved when he heard this, and the immortal blue flame on his body became even stronger.

He looked directly at Kizaru and spoke slowly: "Do you think you can just run away after hitting me? Admiral of the Navy?"

-

"Ok?"

Zhan Guo, who was standing on the execution platform, seemed to sense something and turned his head to look at the battlefield in the distance.

There, Luffy, who was kicked away by Kizaru, appeared again, but this time, his expression became more serious.

Luffy stretched out his left arm covered with Armament Haki, took a deep breath, and then opened his mouth and bit his wrist.

"Muscle Balloon!"

The gas poured into Luffy's left arm, causing it to expand several times in the blink of an eye. Then, Luffy's body also expanded, and a pattern of unknown meaning appeared behind him.

[Gear 4: Jumping Man!!!]

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Accompanied by the sound of bouncing.

Gear Fourth Luffy, here we go!

Several months of basic training, plus five months of special training, allowed Luffy to master the fourth gear form, which took two years of training in the original work.

Moreover, compared to the original work, the Gear Fourth used by Luffy at this time is obviously more powerful.

Whether it is the level of domineering or the basic physical quality, they must be improved to a higher level.

Therefore, the aura displayed by Luffy at this moment made the Navy Marshal Sengoku look at him sideways.

But it's not over yet! ! !

Luffy looked at the gloves that Bai Ye gave him and closed his eyes.

After a moment, Luffy opened his eyes and shouted softly: "Heavenly furnace, spirit awaken!"

Suddenly, two flames rose from Luffy's gloves.

A hint of golden light flashed in the flame, as dazzling as the sun.

And in a trance, a figure similar to Luffy, like an elf, seemed to appear behind him.

But it quickly disappeared.

After seeing this scene, Bai Ye couldn't help but smile.

As he thought, among the three people who received his soul-quenching method, Luffy was the first to ignite the fire in his heart.

-

The gloves on Luffy's hands were made by Bai Ye according to the Tianlu Sect's methods. Combined with the Tianlu Sect's matching soul-forming and tempering method, it was naturally very easy to complete the first step of igniting the heart fire.

The fire in the heart is not a flame, but it is more terrifying than real flame.

Because he is ignited by souls, he has the ability to attack souls.

To put it simply, every punch Luffy throws from now on will not only have a powerful physical attack, but can also directly strike the soul!

However, the shadow that flashed by behind Luffy made Bai Ye very concerned.

After igniting the fire in your heart, it will take a long time of nurturing before the equipment can develop intelligence, or spirit.

It is not surprising that the spirit of the weapon looks like its master, but for Luffy now, he obviously still has a long way to go before he can give the gloves intelligence.

unless...

That phantom already existed.

Bai Ye thought of a possibility, the devil fruit that Luffy ate.

From another perspective, isn't a devil fruit that is consciously stored a magical weapon that already has a spirit?

With this explanation, Bai Ye also understood why the Nika Fruit had not fallen into the hands of the World Government for hundreds of years.

Magical instruments have spirits, so it is very common for them to find a good owner.

If it is obtained by someone who is not recognized, the spirit of the weapon will not appear to help, which will naturally cause the magic weapon to become covered in dust.

"So, is it Luffy's behavior or strength that has been recognized by Nika?" Bai Ye muttered to himself.

However, seeing that Luffy showed no signs of awakening, he felt something was wrong.

It can only be understood that Luffy's behavior ignited the fire in his heart, which surprised Nika's consciousness.

But no matter what, Bai Ye still cares a lot about the Nika Fruit.

He also had a hunch that the biggest boss he and his companions would encounter in the end might need Nika's help.

-

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Because of his size, Luffy can only jump forward.

But when he came to the execution platform again, he suddenly looked up at the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a small island appeared from the clouds and appeared above the execution platform.

And a figure also flew out from the island.

"Hahahahahaha, Navy Headquarters, I'm back again!!!"

...

...

...

ps: I have seen people say more than once that Luffy was possessed by the Nika fruit. This should be the setting of other fan works, so don’t use it in this book. The setting of Nika in this book is a second creation. If it was backstabbed by Oda, then Oda is wrong (not). . .
