Chapter 139

"I..." Little Luffy was completely dumbfounded.

Shanks was stunned, could this be the choice of fate, the will of the Nika Fruit itself?

Will Luffy be the child of destiny?

Shanks yelled:

"Luffy! You're in trouble! This is a Devil Fruit. If you eat it, you will turn into a landlubber and be unable to swim for the rest of your life!"

"What?! No way? Can't swim in my life?!"

"You (Qian Zhaohao) idiot!!"

After the farce ended, Luffy accepted the reality that he had become an esper and could no longer swim.

But he never gave up his dream of becoming a pirate.

At noon the next day, Luffy came to the tavern again, wanting to continue listening to Shanks' adventure stories.

But Shanks was not in the tavern. Instead, Sig, the bandit from yesterday, arrived again.

The bandit Sig had never seen a Devil Fruit user. For such a wonderful creature like Luffy, he even came up with the idea of ​​selling him to a circus to make a fortune.

They captured Luffy and were later met by the red-haired pirates who arrived.

"Listen up, bandit."

"Even if you pour food or wine over my head, or spit on me, I can laugh it off."

"But... no matter what the reason is, I will never forgive the guy who hurt my friend!"

Following Shanks' domineering declaration, the bandits were severely punished by the red-haired group.

But Sig took advantage of the chaos and threw down the smoke bomb, and escaped to the sea with Luffy.

When the red-haired group chased them to the sea by boat, a king of the sea emerged from the bottom of the sea and was about to swallow the bandits Sig and Luffy in one go.

"Captain!" Jesus was startled. It was too far, too late, at least one kilometer away.

Shanks looked dazed for a while.

No matter what, Luffy must be saved.

Is this also fate?

He moved, jumped out of the ship, and at the critical moment, saved little Luffy from the mouth of the King of the Near Sea.

And the price is obviously an arm.

Two more days passed.

The red-haired pirates bandaged their injuries and set sail, leaving the Windmill Village where they had stayed for nearly a year.

Little Luffy said goodbye to them at the port and told them his dream of becoming the Pirate King.

Shanks gave the straw hat that Roger left to him to Luffy, and promised to return it to him one day in the future.

It wasn't until the pirate ship completely disappeared under the sea level that Luffy finally withdrew his gaze.

He returned to the tavern.

In front of the bar of the tavern, a man wearing white clothes sat.

"Young man, what kind of king do you want to be?"

Edie turned around with a playful smile.

Chapter 112 Nika awakens! Edie: Even if the real Sun God comes, he has to kneel down to speak!

"You are...a face I've seen somewhere."

When little Luffy saw Edie in front of the bar, he always felt a little familiar.

Suddenly, he hit his palm with his fist, "Oh, I remembered, you are Eddie... No, Ili... It seems wrong too."

Edie was amused: "My name is Edie, and I am a scientist."

"Yes, that's what it's called!".

Little Luffy walked up to Edie, raised his head and said, "It seems that after the last live broadcast, everyone in the village admires you. Are you great?"

"Then do you admire me?" Edie smiled.

"Shanks said he wanted to become the Pirate Emperor before he could take back his daughter." Luffy picked up his nose and looked like an idiot: "Are you the Pirate King?"

In his simple understanding, the person who is greater than the Pirate Emperor must be the Pirate King.

"Why did you take Shanks' daughter away, are you a bad person?"

"I just put a little pressure on the redhead and saved his daughter's life by the way."

"Oh, you're a good person?" Little Luffy suddenly thought.

Behind the bar, the proprietress Maginot couldn't help laughing.

Edie smiled and said: "Humans are complex creatures, and labeling them is not a good habit. I'll treat you to a glass of juice."

He handed a glass of juice on the bar to little Luffy.

This child was only six or seven years old. He was unsuspecting. When he saw that there was free juice to drink, he immediately took it and drank it in one gulp.

"Thank you, you are indeed a good person, Eddie!"

Edie chuckled, "Do you know the name of the devil fruit you ate before?"

"Rubber fruit?" Luffy pulled his face, and his face was stretched as long as a rubber band.

"Its real name is Animal Type·Human Fruit·Phantom Beast Species·Nika Form."

As he spoke, Edie took out a blood collection needle.

Seeing the sharp needle, Luffy was immediately frightened and trembling: "What do you want to do?! Eddie!"

"After drinking my juice, you should give me something in return, such as your blood."

Edie was smiling.

This smile fell in Luffy's eyes, like a devil's smile.

"No! I'm most afraid of injections! Are you a devil? You lied to a child!"

Making a face, Luffy turned around and ran away.

When he rushed out of the tavern door, he bumped into someone.

Little Luffy sat down on the ground and shouted: "It hurts, it hurts... huh? It doesn't seem to hurt."

Because the body has turned into rubber, ordinary physical impacts and blows will no longer work.

He looked up at the tall figure he bumped into, at least much taller than him.

At first glance, his expression suddenly changed and he became a little panicked.

"Grandpa...Grandpa!?"

"Look more carefully." Edie stood up from the stool in front of the bar and approached step by step with the lancet.

"Ah? Young grandpa?"

873 Little Luffy then realized that the man in front of him seemed to be very young.

The ugly cow grinned, grabbed Luffy's chest, and lifted him up.

"Monkey D. Luffy, please call me grandpa again?"

"...You're not Grandpa!" Little Luffy's eyes widened in disbelief, "Are you Grandpa's son?"

They look too much alike.

For a moment, Edie couldn't understand why Luffy's brain turned to Garp's son.

Ugly Cow's face darkened, "I'm Garp's son, isn't that your father? That's not okay, how can I be a generation lower than Garp! Call me grandpa!"

"No! You're not grandpa! Put me down, bastard!"

The ugly cow immediately punched Luffy, causing a big bump to swell up.

"It's too rude to call you a bastard. Won't Garp educate you properly?"

"It hurts!" Luffy yelled, covering his head with a confused look on his face. Why does it hurt again?

Maginot ran out nervously and said hurriedly: "Guest, Dr. Edie, please let Luffy go."

Edie smiled and said nothing.

The ugly cow ignored the little boss lady. He grabbed Luffy's arm and held it horizontally.

When little Luffy saw the needle in Edie's hand, he was so scared that he burst into tears.

"Wait, wait, I apologize! Grandpa, I'm sorry! Don't stick me with a needle! Give it to me!"

After the shrill cry, Edie took a tube of blood.

After collecting the blood, Chou Niu put Xiao Lufei down.

Edie said speechlessly: "It's just a blood draw. Killing a pig doesn't make you scream louder."

Little Luffy was shocked and found that he was still alive...

He rolled and crawled and ran out of the tavern.

After pulling away a "safe" distance, he turned back and stuck out his tongue at Edie and made a face:

"Devil! I remember you, Eddie! And you, fake grandpa!"

Edie shook his head with a smile and put away the lancet.

"Where's Zishu?"

“Reply to the Father, who went to Mount Colpo.”

…………

…

Kingdom of Goa, Mount Corpo.

in the forest.

Ace and Sabo, 9 years old, teamed up to defeat an adult bear.

The exhausted two people lay on the ground, breathing heavily, looking at each other and laughing again.

"Saab, we've become a little stronger again!"

"Ah, just keep working hard like this. Once we have accumulated enough 'pirate deposits', we can leave this country one day!"

The two maintain their vision for the future.

Suddenly, a beast roared, and Ace and Sabo both changed their expressions.

They immediately stood up and looked back, and found a larger bear rushing toward them (cicj).

"Oops, is that the bear's mother?!"

"Run away!"

The two panicked people wanted to escape, but with their physical strength exhausted, it seemed difficult for them to avoid the giant bear's attack.

Crisis's bald head flashed with a flash of sword.

The giant bear man stood up for a moment, and his head suddenly separated. Blood was like a pillar, and it spattered all over the ground.

The two Aces were stunned for a moment.

After the giant bear's huge body fell, they discovered that there was a person standing behind the giant bear.

The other party has white hair, brown skin... and very eye-catching black wings.

"Hey, kids, when you see your savior, kneeling and kowtow is the reaction you should have, right?" Zishu shouldered the samurai sword and grinned at the two of them.

kid? You look like you're in your teens.

Sabo thought blankly and immediately thanked him: "Thank you, are you...?"

"No...impossible!"

Next to him, Ace's eyes widened and he whispered in disbelief.
