"Hmmm......"

A heavy, nasal sound came from Sauron's mouth.

Sauron's eyes slowly opened, looking at the carved beams and luxurious decorations around him, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled:

"This ...... Where is this? ”

"Unfamiliar ceiling ......"

Sauron just wanted to get up and take a look around.

A soft, sweet voice suddenly came from Sauron's side.

"Lord Zoro, are you awake?"

"Huh? Who? ”

Zoro turned his head curiously in the direction of the sound.

I saw a woman with a delicate face, beautiful long blond hair, dressed in a crimson maid outfit, and a vicious bulge on her chest, walking towards Zoro from a distance, step by step.

Suddenly seeing such a stunner, even Zoro was a little shy.

But more, I am still puzzled and curious.

After looking at the surrounding environment again, he found that his three slashing knives were still beside him, and he instantly calmed down, and asked the maid:

"Where is this? Who are you? ”

The maid smiled and approached step by step, and when she reached a suitable distance, she bowed lightly, and made the etiquette to the extreme, and the sweet voice came from her mouth again:

"Lord Zoro, you are currently at Lord Luffy's mansion."

"We are the maids of this mansion."

"If you need anything, you can ask us as much as you like."

"Luffy!!"

Hearing the familiar name, Zoro finally reacted that he had indeed returned to the real world, and continued to ask the maid:

"Luffy, where are the others?"

"Luffy-sama's words, this morning, after Luffy-sama entrusted you to my care, I was summoned by the president, and I have just gone to the palace."

"Now it's time to discuss things with the President in the palace."

"Specifically, it's not something that people like me should know."

"If it's convenient for adults, you can move to the living room."

"Lord Robin and the others are there, and they should answer your questions, we are just maids, and we don't know much about some things......"

The blonde maid bent over and respectfully explained to Sauron, who was sitting on the bed.

"The palace? President? ”

Zoro was momentarily puzzled.

Didn't you say that you would be pirates together?

Why are they all in the palace now?

……

……

After arranging his clothes, Zoro followed the maid's steps to the living room of the mansion.

"Lord Zoro, please come in."

The blonde maid took the lead, pushing open a gorgeous door made of unknown precious wood for Sauron, and bowed.

The elegant sound of the piano, as the door opened, instantly reached Sauron's ears.

Taking a step forward, Zoro walked into the living room, which was more like an office than a reception.

The large living room is roughly divided into three parts.

Some are filled with all kinds of musical instruments, some are filled with rows and rows of bookshelves, and some are plastered with all kinds of charts.

Seeing the door open, the three people who were busy with their own affairs stopped what they were doing.

Robin, who was wearing round-rimmed glasses, was the first to raise his head, saw Zoro with a confused face, and said with a smile:

"Welcome to Awakening, Starry Pirates Vice Captain, Roronoa Zoro!"

……

……

At the same time, inside the royal palace of the Republic of Goa.

"Luffy-sama!! Naruto is no kidding! Are we really in the belly of a big whale right now? ”

As soon as he came to his senses and listened to Naruto tell about the previous events, Sabo's father immediately became excited, and directly sent someone to invite Luffy to the palace.

"It's called Rab, what's wrong?"

Luffy sat on a gold-encrusted chair, picked up a cup of milk from the best cows of the Republic of Goa, drank it, and said lightly:

"Something has just happened that you can't understand, and this is also to protect you, and I can let you out in a while."

"No, no, no, no!!"

Sabo's father immediately shook his head like a rattle and asked cautiously:

"I don't dare to doubt the adult's decision!"

"I just wanted to ask, ...... Can you live here forever? ”

"Huh? What did you say? ”

Luffy's hand holding the cup suddenly paused, looked at Sabo's father in confusion, and said:

"You're going to live here?

But here you will be completely isolated from the outside world, and you will not be aware of what is going on outside the world.

And it's hard for you to get out of here without me......"

“……………………”

Luffy said and suddenly stopped.

Then again, everything in the small world will be under Rab's control.

Therefore, as long as a specific password or method is set, Rab can control the free communication between the outside world and the small world at any time.

In this way, except for some restrictions on freedom, everything else can actually be carried out as usual.

But in the world of pirates, freedom is sometimes not that important.

The inhabitants of all nations are not very happy to hand over their lives in exchange for the protection of their aunts.

In other words, Luffy can control one country, or even several, at will?

And then create a great force.

Although Luffy doesn't have any sense of domination, it's inexplicably funny to think about it!

It's like playing a sandbox simulation game, watching a country, under its own hands, become stronger and stronger.

"Your Excellency...... My lord......? ”

Sabo's father watched Luffy suddenly freeze and didn't know what he was thinking.

After a long time, he began to dare to shout at Luffy:

"Your Excellency!"

"Ah......h

Luffy, who left from his thoughts, looked at Sabo's father, who was still flattering in front of him, thought for a while, and said:

"It's not impossible to stay here all the time, but how will you communicate with the outside world in the future?"

"You don't need to communicate with the outside world! My lord! ”

At the mention of this, Sabo's father became excited again.

His thoughts are completely different from Luffy's.

Luffy was still wondering if doing so would restrict the freedom of others too much.

In Luffy's worldview, it's the kind of "freedom" that you don't care about me, and I don't care about you.

But with Sabo's father, it's completely different.

In the eyes of this old nobleman, what is free is not free.

In this strange place, there is no world government that controls everything, and there is no superior world aristocracy.

Luffy and the others also have no desire or idea for things like power.

From today onwards, he is the emperor of this country, and even of this world!

Under one person, above ten thousand!

“…………”

Luffy squinted and glanced at the president of the Goa Republic, as if he had guessed his thoughts.

But he didn't warn too much, just like he didn't like to care about things that had nothing to do with him, but nodded, and agreed to the matter, and said:

"Then this island, just stay in this small world......"

"However, Mr. President, this country should not go back to the way it was!"

As he spoke, Luffy picked up the cup on the table again and swallowed a mouthful of thick milk.

A slight pressure, from between his eyes, exerted on Sabo's father.

"Yes! Be! Be! ”

Under the terrifying spirit, Sabo's father didn't even dare to raise his head, nodded again and again, and said kindly.

It doesn't matter to him how the country develops.

That's what he values!

Seeing his appearance, Luffy didn't say anything more, just stood up and walked towards the outside of the palace.

Just as he was about to leave the palace, Luffy suddenly remembered something, turned his head and said:

"One more point!"

"Windmill town and Corpo Hill are my hometown, where there is a need for free development......"

"Yes! My lord! ”
