The Pirate Garen - #497 - Chapter 491: The Straw Hat Sets Sail
East China Sea, Xiluobu Village, construction site.
The station in Xiluobu Village is almost completed, and the line of the sea train has also been opened to traffic.
At this time, Luffy has returned to the construction site.
At the same time, the brutal rule of the world government had been completely overthrown, and the League of Legends held a plenary meeting in Maryjoia to establish a formal country and government.
In the new government, the deputy chief of the alliance, Dorag, still holds a high position.
Because Galen has always been a hands-off shopkeeper in government affairs, Drago has become the actual head of administration, and his status is not inferior to the previous five old stars.
In this way, Luffy, the second generation ancestor, has been upgraded to a second generation ancestor that no one can afford. In the eyes of ordinary people with older thinking, he is a complete prince and grandson, and his level is similar to that of the previous Tianlong people.
Because Galen has not officially married and had children, Luffy is now the second generation of the most powerful official in the world.
However, this second generation of the most powerful official does not have the arrogance of a cadre’s son at all.
Comrade Lu Fei resolutely gave up the good life of the second generation of officials, let go of his body and blended in with the masses, went deep into the grassroots, and came to the remote villages of the East China Sea alone to shed blood and sweat for the construction of justice in Demacia.
He became one with the workers, insisted on queuing up for meals with the workers, went deep into the front line of production, and solved many specific problems in production and life, and the construction site took on a new look.
Comrade Lu Fei’s deeds reflect the new atmosphere of the new era, marking that the era when the royal relatives took advantage of the situation to make a fortune and the few exploited the many is gone forever.
Of course, that’s all in the league’s press release.
Luffy’s own thoughts are very simple and have never changed:
“I want to be the sea. One Piece!”
“Do you still want to be the Pirate King?”
Needless to explain, the workers all know that the “One Piece” in Luffy’s mouth refers to One Piece.
They have all been with Luffy for a long time, and they have long been accustomed to the awesome background behind this straw hat boy, and they have not felt any sense of estrangement from the second generation of the strongest official.
Hearing Lu Fei’s daily rhetoric, the workers whose ears were almost callused by these words immediately laughed mercilessly:
“Now you still say you want to be the Pirate King, aren’t you going to rebel against your father?”
Luffy’s attitude is extremely persistent, and no one can shake his dream:
“I want to go to sea, what does it have to do with my dad?”
As always, he replied in a daze, choking the workers who laughed out loud.
“well”
A worker still shook his head and sighed, but refused to give up and persuaded:
“What’s so good about being a pirate?”
“It’s not like everyone doesn’t know how strict the alliance is against pirate activities.”
“Even if you are capable, can you still surpass Lord Galen?”
“We’ve all watched the live broadcast of the Battle of the Navy Headquarters.”
“Master Galen can set off a hurricane with a wave of his hand, and cut through the sea with a sword. How can you three handymen, cooks, and steel workers be able to fight?”
The decisive battle at the Navy Headquarters brought Galen’s power to its peak.
Especially the peak duel between him and Im, the kind of extreme power that eclipsed countless top powerhouses present has a powerful deterrent force, making any enemy who wants to fight against Galen fearful.
Although Galen and Im moved too fast, what the video bug lens captured was just the phantom of the two colliding masses, but the doomsday scene of the changing color of the day, the toppling sea, and howling wind could still make these ignorant construction workers see that Gaelen was Len’s terror.
Therefore, out of good intentions, they couldn’t help admonishing Lu Fei not to take a dead end that didn’t work at all.
However, Luffy was there at the time, and his feeling of Galen’s power was more clear and intuitive.
Without the advice of his fellow workers, Luffy knew that he was as weak as an inconspicuous ant in front of Galen.
However, this still cannot shake the ambition of a dreamer:
“I’m not afraid!”
Luffy said firmly.
The workers wanted to persuade him again, but Sauron on the side echoed Luffy and said:
“That’s right, nothing to be afraid of!”
“That kind of power beyond imagination, that kind of swordsmanship that is enough to cut through the world.”
Sauron recalled the scene he saw in the live broadcast, not only did he not feel fear in his heart, but his eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement:
“This is what our swordsmen pursue all their lives!”
“The world’s greatest swordsman, Galen”
“I will stand upright in front of him and become the strongest in the world!”
“well”
The workers were not shocked by Sauron’s rhetoric, because they had already realized that Sauron and Luffy’s spirit of fools was almost the same.
For them, this is the second good boy who has been delayed by crazy dreams.
“Stop sighing.”
Sanji also came here at some point.
He exhaled a thick smoke ring, and said with a deep face:
“Nothing can stop a free man from going to sea.”
“Dreams never end.”
“Hahaha”
The workers interrupted Sanji’s words mercilessly, winking and teasing:
“Speaking so loudly, you still care about your sister’s affairs, right?”
“Why bother?”
“For an excellent man like Lord Galen, girls who want to marry him may be able to circle the great channel.”
“It’s not unreasonable for your sister to choose so.”
They were all too familiar with Sanji, and they said Sanji’s vitals as soon as they opened their mouths.
Sanji’s handsome and deep face turned into a panic:
“Asshole!”
“Don’t mention that scum! My sister definitely didn’t do it voluntarily!!”
Sanji looked distraught, as if his sister Reiju was now a princess locked in a castle by a dragon, and was waiting for his rescue in the capital Mariejoa.
Seeing Sanji’s bitter face, the atmosphere on the construction site suddenly became cheerful.
However, there was a voice that suddenly sounded, making the happy atmosphere slightly stagnant:
“Excuse me.”
“You three are really planning to go to sea to become pirates? Are you serious about what you said?”
It was a boy with a long nose who spoke.
The workers are all familiar with him:
The second generation of thieves in Sirob Village, who is young and has no proper occupation, is an unemployed vagrant who lives on the soft food of Miss Kaya, brother Usopp.
Although these labels are not very kind, but after the previous crisis of encountering Monka and Crowe, the workers also changed their inherent impression of Usopp who was courageous at the critical moment, and gradually became friends with him.
Usopp can go in and out of the construction site at will, and also relies on his ability to brag and chat with the workers.
At the same time, he also has some understanding of Luffy, Sauron and the three’s plan to go to sea.
Now that Usopp suddenly asked about this again, Sanji, the only one with a flexible head among the three, faintly sensed what Usopp meant:
“You have been discussing going to sea with us since before, don’t you?”
“I also want to go to sea and become a pirate!”
“Please let us join you!”
Before Sanji could finish speaking, Usopp directly stated his intentions.
“What?”
The expressions of the workers changed slightly, and some enthusiastic people immediately persuaded:
“Brother Usopp!”
“It’s a good thing to know not to eat women’s soft food, but you can’t go to the doctor in a hurry and do this kind of dishonest business?”
“Who, who is eating soft food from women!”
“I just often go to chat with Ke Ya, and by the way, accompany her for breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner”
Usopp was busy defending, but his voice became weaker and weaker.
“Cough cough.”
Usopp coughed twice to sort out his emotions, and finally found the central idea of what he wanted to say:
“Since I was a child, I have always dreamed of becoming a free sea warrior like my father!”
“Becoming a sea warrior is my dream, and it’s not some dishonest business!”
“good!”
As soon as the words fell, Luffy, the leader of the Straw Hats, agreed:
“Since you also want to go out to sea and become a pirate, then…”
“From today, we are companions!”
Zoro and Sanji hesitated slightly, and immediately agreed with Luffy’s decisiveness.
The dreamer and the dreamer have the same interests, and the three of Luffy and Usopp have been chatting since they got acquainted.
They have no objection to Usopp’s joining.
“Very good!”
Usopp, who had just joined the Straw Hats, was so excited that his dream was within reach.
Inspired by the passion in his chest, Usopp couldn’t help but asked:
“Luffy, when are we going to sea?”
“Forehead”
The three of Luffy were slightly taken aback.
“this.”
After a moment of hesitation, Sanji stood up and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone:
“According to the original plan, we should go to sea in two days.”
“However, after the arrest of Luffy this time”
“We decided that we still have to practice for a while longer, and wait for the strength to pass before going to sea.”
“That’s it too.”
Usopp hesitated for a moment, but agreed.
Because Usopp was also at the scene when Luffy was arrested, he also witnessed the strength of General Kizaru with his own eyes, and experienced the powerlessness and despair.
“So.”
Usopp asked curiously:
“Where should we practice?”
The three of Luffy looked at each other and said in unison:
“Here it is, part-time job.”
“Aha?”
Usopp froze.
Straw hat moves bricks, welcome to add one.
And the brick-moving group that had just expanded to four members hadn’t finished the welcome party for newcomers, yet another piece of good news came out of nowhere:
“Everyone stop being dumbfounded!”
It was the construction site foreman who spoke, and he attracted everyone’s attention as soon as he spoke:
“I have big news to announce:”
“When the station in Xiluobu Village is officially completed, we will set off for the great waterway!”
“Go to the Great Channel?”
The faces of all the workers changed slightly.
They are all natives of the East China Sea, and they have never left their hometowns to go so far away, so they couldn’t help asking with some complaints:
“Aren’t we from Donghai Debon Construction Company?”
“Why do you want to work on the Great Channel?”
“Look at your awareness”
The foreman shook his head and sighed bitterly:
“We are all a brick of Demacia, of course we need to move where!”
“It’s only been two years since you came out of the garbage mountain, and you want to be lazy and stop working?”
The workers were ashamed of what they said, and after a moment of silence, they asked cautiously:
“Foreman, what are we going to do on the Great Channel?”
“Hahaha”
The foreman laughed heartily, and said mysteriously:
“We went to the Great Channel, of course, to respond to the call of the country and look for the OnePiece of the new era!”
“The Great Channel, OnePiece?!”
Luffy’s eyes lit up.
The straw hat moved bricks and finally set sail.
Tomorrow is the finale.
But there will be a few extra chapters after the finale.
The extra content will not have much to do with the protagonist, just like this chapter.
As I was writing today, I found that writing in the main text does not distinguish between primary and secondary, so let’s move all the things I want to write to the side story after the finale.
