The Merry slowly docked at the harbor in Rogue Town.

Luffy was a little curious and led everyone down the Merry.

Looking around and looking at this strange sight, Luffy began to ask questions:

"Huh~ It's so strange......"

He had also lived in Rogue Town for a long time many years ago.

The town of Rogue served as the largest trading port in the East China Sea.

On weekdays, it is crowded with people, and it is extremely difficult to walk.

How can it be so quiet today?

In the entire large port of Rogue Town, less than a hundred ships docked.

There are less than ten ships that are shipping goods!

Moreover, there are two of the Navy's own delivery ships.

Looking at Rogue Town, which was completely different from his impression, Luffy kept his doubts in his heart.

Or take the lead and lead everyone towards the market in memory.

to accomplish the only purpose for which they came here, to procure supplies.

After all, they don't have much need to stay here now.

There should be few places in this world that attract more people in the starry sky than the training room on the Merry.

Since the outbreak of the last Brooke supernatural incident, the people in the starry sky, who had already aimed to become stronger, have fallen into a frenzied training camp.

In less than a month, although Robin Nami is a veteran starry sky person, there has not been much change.

However, for the few people who have just joined the pirate group not long ago, it is simply a sea change!

Maybe for Luffy and Zoro, two people whose basic attributes are already very high, a short period of training can't show anything.

But for Usopp and Kirby, the attribute bonus of the training room, the attribute growth of the glowing cuisine, and the already good qualifications of the two of them, the strength is almost visibly improved.

Of course, it is also important to highlight the growth of Sanji.

In the Starry Sky Pirates, Sanji's physical qualifications are considered to be excellent.

If the single-round qualification is ranked, Sanji's physical qualification can almost be ranked around the third place.

Almost the most talented person except for Luffy and Zoro.

After all, in the bloodline of Sanji, there is the magical [D bloodline] flowing.

And his ability, the gourmet cell, is even more because of the large amount of gourmet energy contained in the glowing cuisine, which violently stimulates the evolution speed of Sanji's body.

It is estimated that with his current growth rate, it will not take him a year to sit firmly in the third place in the starry sky.

But!

A person is strong, and the flesh is not all and all.

After all, in this world, there are countless Devil Fruit abilities of ghosts and monsters.

Those who can control the spirit and manipulate people's hearts are even more unknown.

Hancock's sweet fruit, the revolutionary army's inspirational fruit, Big Mom's soul fruit, Brin's memory fruit......

Perhaps in the world of the weak, these are rare and precious treasures.

But at Luffy's level, there is no one who can make them face it seriously, it is a fuel-efficient lamp!

But if you have a weakness in a certain aspect and are targeted, you can imagine what will happen after that.

What's more, there are still so many existences in the world that can complete spiritual attacks purely by skill.

Zangao's hypnosis, Brooke's music, and the seahorses that devour memories in the midst of the great voyage......

And among the people in the starry sky, if you really talk about the potential of the spiritual level.

At the moment, it seems that Sanji is the worst!

Even Kebi is two or three grades higher than Shanzhi.

Fortunately, maybe Brooke is right.

The existence of that different time and space last time had no ill will towards Luffy.

Although that existence dragged Sanji into the boundless abyss of hell, putting his life in danger.

But at the same time, it is also a sublimation of Sanji's soul.

At present, Sanji's spiritual attributes have changed from the original six hundred to more than nine hundred, and it is already very close to one thousand.

One thousand, almost a big threshold.

Some powers and skills can only be fully displayed when they reach the back of this threshold.

It's just that with Sanji's spiritual talent, if you want to grow to more than a thousand, I don't know how long it will take.

……

……

As the crowd went deeper, the strange feeling became more and more obvious.

On the streets of the entire town of Rogue.

The doors of every house are closed, and the once prosperous commercial street is also full of doors, and the scenery of the town where the great voyage began is completely lost.

Moreover, in the sight of Luffy and the others, it seems that all the weapon shops have been sealed, and the door is affixed with the seal of "Naval Branch of Rogue Town in the East Sea".

Luffy and the others walked towards their target this time, Rogue Town Daiji, while observing, with doubts.

……

……

At the same time, the headquarters of the Navy in the town of Rogue, the office of the Supreme Commander.

"You say...... You let the Bucky Pirates the Clown escape!? ”

On the chair in the office, an extremely thin figure sat and said to the burly man standing at the desk.

There was a hint of anger in the tone, but people couldn't hear the specific emotions in it.

Obviously, a person who has been in a high position for a long time will develop a style.

The rat stroked his slender beard and looked at the bully in front of him, who was covered with layers of bandages.

The little eyes also turned slightly in the sockets, and then said slowly:

"Bucky the Clown, but a little pirate with a bounty of 1500w......"

"You take fifty warships with you and promise me with all your might."

"As a result, I finally brought back such a result~"

The mouse's eyes narrowed slightly, and from the gap, a fierce light was released, as if with reproach.

A sense of official authority that can only be possessed in a high position pressed towards the bully major, instantly making him feel an inexplicable palpitation.

At this time, another unpleasant voice suddenly sounded:

"You're such a shit, Major Bully......"

"Shut up!! Privates of Arrita!!! ”

The mouse was instantly angry, frowned, slapped the table heavily, and scolded Arrita, who suddenly interjected:

"There's no place for you to talk here!"

In any case, the bullies are all his cronies who have been promoted from beginning to end.

There are rewards for meritorious service, and punishments for demerits.

But no matter what, he can't be counted down by Yarrita, a pirate who has just become a good person.

Can't chill the old man's heart.

This is the rat's - the way of employing people.

"Shhhh ……”

The scolded Yarrita stopped speaking instantly and gritted her teeth slightly.

But after a while, he took a step back and stood next to him again.

After all, her identity today is very different from what she used to be.

……

……

Seeing that Yarrita didn't say anything more, the mouse turned his gaze to the badly injured bully again.

The tone didn't have the reproach just now, and he asked slowly:

"Let's talk about it......"

"What's going on, it's going to make you, a hero of the East China Sea, so embarrassed."

With that, the mouse put one hand on the table and began to tap the table in a rhythmic manner, assuming a waiting official posture.

The bully major moved the bandage around his neck slightly, making his broken arm more comfortable, and began to report to the mouse with some hesitation:

"Colonel Mouse!"

"I am willing to bear the defeat this time alone, and I will never look for excuses......"

"And accept any punishment!"

"Just ......"

A flash flashed in the bully's eyes, and he continued with fear of that strange ability:

"The Bucky Pirates the Clown, it's definitely not as simple as it says in the intelligence!"

"Its pirates have excellent boat handlers and navigators.

Its experience and operation are very skilled, and it is completely different from ordinary pirates!

You can easily escape under the encirclement and suppression of more than a dozen warships! ”

"Moreover, the power of their artillery fire is even more amazing!"

"A cannonball! Enough to completely destroy a small warship!

This is also the main reason why we lost a dozen battleships. ”

"His Devil Fruit ability is even more weird, he can divide his body into a large number of tiny pieces.

Even if you use the Hailou Stone bullet, you can't catch it accurately. ”

The bully's still intact arm, gently covering the band on his abdomen that was faintly oozing blood, continued:

"The knife on my body was attacked by him because I didn't guard against his weird Devil Fruit ability."

"At that time, if they hadn't been in a hurry to escape, I probably wouldn't have had a chance to stand here and report back to you!"

"However, due to my weakness, the navy suffered heavy losses this time.

I'm a bully! Willing to take all the responsibility for this time, including dismissal and punishment! ”

"Colonel, please!"

……

……

Click...... Click...... Click......

In the office, there was silence for a while, except for the sound of the rat's index finger constantly tapping on the table.

"Devil Fruit......"

It was a long time before the rat stopped tapping, and muttered slightly with its slippery mouth.

He looked up again at the bully who bowed and confessed, and at Arrita, who was standing in the corner, clubbing her mace and not daring to speak.

He got up from his chair and walked to the safe behind him, not caring that there were still two people here.

There was a murmur.

After a while, the mouse returned to his desk with two wooden boxes.

He put the wooden box on the table, and at the same time took out a red-headed document stamped with the official seal of the Navy Headquarters, and said slowly:

"Keep your head up, Major Bully."

"Huh......?"

The bully looked up suspiciously, slowly looking at the mouse.

I saw the mouse hold up the document and read it out to the bully:

"Major Bully!

In view of the fact that you are diligent, hard-working, and brave in the East China Sea's 'anti-pornography and anti-illegal' incident!

Applied by Colonel Mouse, the top executive officer of the naval branch in Rogue Town, East China Sea.

It is hereby approved:

With immediate effect, Major Bully was promoted to lieutenant colonel, allowing him to own his own small fleet.

May he continue to work hard and fight for the people!

Fight for justice!

Time: XX month XX day of the year 1520 in the sea round calendar. ”

Boom......

There was a soft thud.

The rat threw the slightly weighted letter of appointment in front of the bully, and continued:

"The matter of the Bucky Pirates is indeed a bit unexpected to me."

"However, since he has escaped into the Great Passage, let the Naval Division of the Great Voyage worry about it......"

"Go back and remember to write a detailed report and submit it!

There must be no more such a bad situation as intelligence mistakes! ”

"Got it, Lieutenant Colonel Bully?!"

The mouse suddenly smiled a little, as if he had faked the anger and seriousness just now.

Changing his face is faster than flipping through a book, which makes the bully a little unable to react for a while.

But the mouse did not continue to pay attention to him, but said to Yarrita, who was standing in the corner:

"Inferior Yarrita!"

"In!"

Yarrita, who was suddenly called, instantly straightened up and replied.

The excessive action made the fat on her body, like a wave, rise layer by layer.

The mouse looked at Arrita, who already had a hint of a navy look, with satisfaction, and continued:

"Inferior Yarrita!"

"Given your recent good performance and strong strength."

"With the right as the top executive officer of the naval branch in Rogue Town, I will promote you to the rank of corporal.

I hope you can contribute more to justice in the future! ”

"Yes! Colonel Xie promoted!! ”

Alrita immediately gave a comical salute, and then slowly lowered it at the wave of the mouse.

The two of them instantly looked at the mouse with puzzled eyes.

They don't understand why Colonel Rat wants to preach their promotion at this time, even though it was a serious battle loss.

And, even more strangely, the two beautiful-looking wooden boxes that the mouse took out of the cabinet.

What the hell is inside?

……

……

Thankfully, the rats didn't keep them confused for long.

Put his hands on the lid of the wooden box, slowly open the box, and said to the two:

"In the past year, we have captured almost half of the pirates in the East China Sea.

Among them, there are a large number of bounty pirates. ”

"As a result, in the East China Sea, the prestige of the navy began to rise in a straight line, and it was widely acclaimed."

"This matter happened to reach the ears of Admiral Sakasky in the Navy Headquarters."

The mouse's expression suddenly became treacherous, especially when he said the word "coincidence".

It's like he's afraid that others won't know that he's doing all this.

"Admiral Sakasky was very satisfied with our work, so he sent a private message to me from his cronies, intending to let me go to the Navy Headquarters for development."

"Although the exact time has not been decided, I think that day should not be too far away."

The mouse's face suddenly became a little hideous.

In his eyes, a trace of ambition flashed!

Navy Headquarters!

Man's ambition has no end!

When the mouse succeeded in achieving today's position, he had already set his sights on the future!

The wooden box was slowly opened.

In the wooden box, there are two fruits with strange spiral patterns - devil fruits!

The mouse straightened up again, looked up at Arrita, who was standing a little farther away, and said:

"...... Arrita"

"You're just a pirate, and you're not the best pirate in the East China Sea.

However, you can stand out from the crowd and choose to join the navy, and I'd like to give you that opportunity. ”

"When I leave the East China Sea, it is bound to be impossible to take too much manpower and money with me."

"So I spent most of my savings and exchanged them for these two Devil Fruits."

The mouse took the two fruits out of the wooden box and reached out to the two of them.

His eyes showed crazy desire, looking at the two devil fruits, and also at the two of them, his pointed teeth revealing demon-like shapes.

At this moment, he only has infinite fantasies and prospects for the future in his heart.

He had decided that even if he had to spend his whole life on it, he would never stop pursuing that higher position!!

Facing the two navies who were staring at the Devil Fruit, the rat continued to speak:

"I can't take the East China Sea forces, but at least, I can still take two lieutenants and enter the Navy Headquarters with me."

As he spoke, the Devil Fruit was handed forward and placed in the hands of the two of them.

"You two are the most powerful navy in the entire East China Sea.

If you are willing to follow me and go to the higher worlds.

These two fruits will be an indispensable help for you! ”

……

……

The bully and Arrita stared at the Devil Fruit in front of them, and then at the mouse's seductive eyes.

Higher World ......

Sounds like that's amazing!

……

……

"Follow Colonel Rat to the death!"

"Follow Colonel Rat to the death!"

The two immediately saluted in unison.

Then he directly picked up the devil fruit in front of him, put it in his mouth, and took a big sip.

Immediately after that, the faces of the two people changed instantaneously!

Tie Qing's face and wide-eyed eyes looked like he wanted to vomit but didn't dare to vomit.

It's like being forced to eat poison by someone else's life.

However, when I thought of myself in front of me this was the legendary Devil Fruit.

Bullies, in particular, think of Bucky's eerie abilities.

I had to resist the vomit, and after a while, I ate the whole fruit.

Including the fruit, the peel with threads.

The mouse smiled wickedly, looked at his future right-hand man, and asked curiously:

"How's it going, do you feel anything?"

"Good...... I don't think it's ...... yet."

Yarrita was just about to answer Colonel Mouse's question, only to see her body, suddenly changed!

The original fat and greasy body disappeared quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The face, which was so rugged that it didn't look like a woman at all, had also changed dramatically.

The double chin is reduced inward, the exposed pores are shrunk inward, and even the beard is falling at all.

After a while, under the stunned expressions of the two, Yarrita turned into a handsome beauty with skin like fat and peugeot features.

It's like a different person.

The navy uniform, which she was wearing and was still a little crowded, was also instantly relaxed.

The fabric hung on her jade body, making the indescribable indescribable.

……

……

"Ya...... Second...... ......"

The bully looked at the beauty in front of him with a shocked expression, and couldn't believe his eyes.

After stumbling for a long time, she still didn't call out all of Yarrita's name.

And now, his stuttered brain has only one vague thought at this time:

Devil Fruits, terrifying!!

It's been a long day's work.

It was the well-informed rat who was the first to react from surprise.

Looking at Yarrita's perfect figure, she secretly diverted her gaze, and her treacherous face became a little calmer.

He coughed lightly twice, and said with a slightly flushed face:

"Ahem......"

"Ya...... Arrita ......"

"Ahem!"

"Inside...... You...... You tidy it up first...... Your clothes ......"

"Huh......?"

At this time, Yarrita, who was not aware of the change in herself, just felt that her clothes were falling off a little.

Reached out and tidied it up, and everything was back to normal.

Of course, at this time, she also discovered her smooth skin and indulged in her own changes.

"Ahem......"

The rats and bullies who were seduced by Yarrita's coquettish gesture had completely forgotten what she used to be by this time.

The two men looked at each other, as if to avoid embarrassment, and the mouse asked quickly:

"Ahem...... Lieutenant Colonel Bully, Corporal Arrita, you two, tell me what abilities you have gained......"

"Ability!"

Aryrita suddenly put her hands on her sexy and charming face, as if sensing a change in herself, and said incredulously:

"What I eat is a slippery fruit of the superhuman line.

I can make my body so tender that everything that touches the surface of my skin bounces off. ”

As she spoke, Arrita wiped her skin again, as if admiring her own skin.

I don't know what mysterious power it is, anyway, in the world of pirates, as long as the human brain is normal.

Everyone who eats the fruit will know the name and power of the fruit they are eating directly.

Seeing that the mouse's gaze turned around, the bully also became serious, his face was slightly forced, and his whole body instantly swelled.

An ugly round head appeared, and two long whiskers sprouted from the top of his head, almost as long as his current height, nearly two meters long.

Dark, shiny dorsal armor, four tentacles with disgusting fluff, and two suddenly extra branched arms.

Compared to the allure of Yarrita.

The appearance of the bully at this time simply made everyone who saw it feel a disgust and disgust from the depths of their hearts!

There used to be some tough guys and handsome bullies, but they have become disgusting.

And Yarrita, who was once extremely ugly, has become a stunner in the world.

The rat once again exclaimed in his heart, the power of the Devil Fruit is really amazing!

The bully slowly changed back into his human form, his bandages ripped all over the ground by the transformation he had just made.

However, the severe wounds on his body, which had been severely wounded by Bucky's shells, were rapidly healing.

The bully felt the power of the novelty and explained to the mouse:

"Colonel Mouse, the fruit I eat is an animal-based cockroach fruit.

I have now become a cockroach man, with the terrifying physical strength and health recovery ability of cockroaches.

Now, as long as I don't die, no matter how serious the injury, give me plenty of time, and I can recover as before! ”

After listening to the introduction of the two of them to the abilities, the mouse instantly burst out laughing:

"Hahaha!!"

"Good! Good!!! ”

"The power of the Devil Fruit is really strong!! Hahahaha......"

After a burst of wild laughter, the mouse suddenly bowed down and slapped his palms on the table, making a loud trill.

Boom!!!

His eyes returned to his attitude full of ambition, and he rolled his eyes upwards and looked at his two generals and said:

"Navy!"

"A bright future is beckoning to us!"

The mouse said, and suddenly licked his lips like a boss behind the scenes, and he couldn't see the appearance of the navy at all.

"The days to come !!"

"I'm your boss and your friend!"

"The three of us, we have to twist into one force, one is prosperous, and one is lost!"

"I don't know what difficulties and obstacles await us on the road ahead!"

"But, I believe it!"

"As long as we are united enough, there will be nothing in the world that will stump us!!"

"Yes, Chief Mouse!"

"Yes, Chief Mouse!"

The two replied immediately.

Rat's new name for the two showed a smile of satisfaction and continued:

"Please take care of me in the future, cockroach bullies, slug beauties!"

"Hahaha............"

The rat laughed out loud again.

At this moment, they have completely broken away from the military system of the Navy and formed their own group.

As for the future target of the mouse, is it the Admiralty King, or something else......

It has become, not so important!

……

……

Bang bang bang......

While the three of them were still in a state of euphoria, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.

"Enter!"

The rat instantly regained its former majesty and shouted at the man outside the door.

Chirping......

The door was quickly opened, and one of the navies ran in anxiously, saluted, and immediately reported:

"Report Colonel Mouse!"

"Someone just discovered in the harbor that His Majesty the Seven Martial Seas - the Starry Sky Pirates are wandering around the interior of Rogue Town............"

The navy, which was reporting, suddenly stopped.

Seeing the disheveled big beauty Yarrita, the naked bully.

Moreover, because of the transformation of the bully just now, the ground is now also a mess.

The Navy instantly cried bitterly in his heart:

"It's over! My career has gone far ......"
