Towards evening, the night moon was hazy, the stars were sparse, and the sky was still floating with a hint of bright color.

In front of a luxurious house near the Royal Palace, in the inner city of the Kingdom of Goa.

After several rounds, Luffy and the others finally determined that this was Sabo's former address.

"Bang Bang!"

"Is there anyone, open the door!"

Luffy was rude, walked straight to the gate, and knocked the door quickly.

Chirping~

The maid of the Sabo family slowly opened the door to the luxurious mansion.

She poked her head out with some curiosity, wanting to take a closer look at which nobleman had come to her family at this time.

"Excuse me......"

"Ah~!"

As soon as the maid pushed open the door, and before she had finished her ceremonial question, she saw two beautiful women, and a man carrying another man on his back, and ......

A skeleton!!

Boom!!!

The maid's psychology was very strong, reason overcame fear, and the door was closed in an instant.

"Oh no! Oh no! ”

"Sir! There are youkai !! ”

“…………”

"Puff~"

Robin and Nami suddenly covered their mouths and laughed.

Looking at Brooke with an embarrassed face, Nami, who was still young, had no scruples, and smiled directly:

"Brooke, you're scaring people again! Achievements plus one! Hahaha......"

Luffy also smiled and left a drop of cold sweat.

I don't know why, the scene just now always gave him a sense of déjà vu in Journey to the West, where the four masters and apprentices went to the people's homes to spend the night......

Also, the way the maid looked at him just now made him feel weird......

Glancing at Zoro behind him, the more Luffy thought about it, the more he felt that the maid must have thought crookedly......

Looking at the closed door, Luffy sighed helplessly and said:

"What a hassle......

Originally, he wanted to be a civilized person.

After all, the atmosphere in the inner city is still quite good, and he doesn't really want to spoil the peace.

However, everything always backfires!

Boom......

After a muffled sound, the door of the luxurious mansion slowly fell to the ground, fanning up a large cloud of dust on the ground.

It can be seen that this maid did not clean seriously at all.

Behind the gate, Luffy is revealed slowly retracting his right foot.

"Let's go, let's go in......"

Nami and the others didn't care about Luffy's trespassing on the house at all, and followed Luffy directly into the mansion.

……

……

"Who are you??!!

Before he had taken a few steps, Sabo's father, who heard the noise, suddenly appeared at the other end of the mansion hall with a group of soldiers.

The soldiers quickly divided into two columns, set up the guns in their hands, and the muzzles flashed with cold light, and aimed them straight at Luffy and the others.

Sabo's father, somewhat calmly carrying a black civilization stick, stood behind the soldiers in a haughty posture.

The inner city is also not completely safe, and there are occasional petty thieves.

Therefore, the average nobleman with high status will raise a group of his own private soldiers at home.

Nobles of Sabo's father's rank have a group of high-ranking soldiers trained by the king to protect their own safety.

Sabo's father slowly lifted his noble head, taking the arrogance of the nobility to the extreme.

However, the moment his gaze met Luffy through the eyes of a single nobleman, a frost suddenly enveloped his heart, dispelling his pride a little.

He didn't even feel any strange when he saw Brooke's appearance, but ......

I don't know why, the first time I saw Luffy, an inexplicable sense of familiarity instantly surged into Sabo's father's heart.

My heart throbbed for a while, and I couldn't do it in a panic, and even my legs began to tremble slightly.

"You ...... Who the hell is it!! Breaking into a nobleman's mansion is going to lose your head! ”

Sabo's father immediately pointed at Luffy and the others roared again, as if to cheer himself up.

Luffy ignored it, remained silent, and continued to walk forward step by step.

The distance between the two was getting closer and closer, but Sabo's father did not dare to give the order to attack the soldiers under any circumstances.

Just like a weak insect has a special sense of danger, he also has a special sixth sense that belongs to him.

Coupled with that inexplicable throbbing, he surprisingly stayed in place and did not choose to escape.

Just looked at Luffy like this, and slowly leaned towards him little by little.

"Long time no see, uncle!"

When Luffy got closer, he suddenly raised his head and revealed his entire handsome face, and his bright smile was like a spring breeze in the eyes of the middle-aged nobleman.

"Ahh

Sabo's father, who was shining with a smile like a little sun, suddenly took a step back and screamed loudly.

The familiar smile instantly awakened the memory that Sabo's father had hidden in his heart, a memory that had been sealed many years ago.

Ever since he found out that the small fishing boat that crashed into the sky man Yaxing that day was actually operated by his own son Sabo, he had forgotten all the memories related to Sabo.

This is a big stain on him, a nobleman who expects his son to marry a princess and become a king.

Such a black history must not be known to outsiders.

Afterwards, he even did not hesitate to use a lot of energy and means to finally seal the mouths of some insiders.

Unexpectedly, the demon imp who was with Sabo at the beginning actually appeared in front of him again.

That day, that bloody scene clearly surfaced in his mind.

"You...... You...... You ......"

The ugly finger stretched out and pointed at Luffy for a long time, but in the end, the nobleman didn't say anything.

It's not that he's scared, but he finds that no matter what Luffy wants to do, he can't seem to stop it......

"Don't be nervous, I didn't mean anything bad about coming this time.

On the contrary, I came to you this time with the intention of cooperation......"

"Hop...... Cooperate? ”

Sabo's father wondered incredulously.

"yes, I ......"

"Father's !!"

Before Luffy could finish speaking, a teenager about the same age as Nami suddenly ran out of the mansion.

It was Sabo's younger brother, adopted by Saab's parents, who was most suitable for the child of the nobility - Steley.

Seeing the middle-aged nobleman who fell to the ground, Sterley immediately shouted loudly.

What is this place?

It was the private residence of the most prestigious nobles in the Kingdom of Goa.

Aside from class, Steley, who did not have a hint of the concept of a strong man, did not think about why his father's face was full of fear.

He only knew that in this country, except for the royal family, there was no one they could not provoke.

Steley rushed straight behind Sabo's father, waiting for Luffy to scream loudly:

"Shoot! Shoot! Kill him for me! ”

The soldiers, who have been brainwashed by class rule for many years, have no mind of their own.

Because Sabo's father had lost the ability to give orders, the soldiers immediately obeyed Sterley's command

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! ……

In an instant, dozens of guns opened fire in an instant, and bullets erupted along the chamber.

Call~~

A gust of wind blew in the room.

A wall of wind formed by air turbulence blocked Luffy and the others in front of them.

When the bullet hits the wind wall, it is like encountering great force, and it suddenly catapults away in the opposite direction.

The frenzied buckshot shot backwards faster than it had come.

"Ahh

"Ah......h

"Ah~!"

For a moment, there was a scream among the soldiers guarding the town.

Some soldiers were directly killed by the rebound, while others were only shot to the vital point, which was not enough to die, and could only keep screaming under the severe pain.

"Sixty Rounds of Blossoms, Deadly Hooks!"

All of a sudden, a layer of beautiful pink petals bloomed in the room.

With the dance of the petals, two arms grew from each of the soldiers who were still alive.

The arms went up and down, and the heads of the soldiers were buckled.

Robin was seen with his hands on his chest, his index finger spread outward.

Then it snapped shut.

Click!!

The sound of bones breaking was extremely uniform, and it sounded almost unbiasedly.

Today, hundreds of private soldiers died here in an instant.

Luffy smiled brightly again and said:

"Now, can we talk about cooperation?"
