Chambord Islands.

"Oh oh! It's all bubbles!! ”

A figure wearing a straw hat jumped on each bubble with excitement on his face, until he jumped to a very high place, and when he stepped on a bubble again, the bubble burst and his whole body quickly fell downward.

Bang!

The ground was smashed and cracked a little.

"Hey! Luffy, be careful! ”

Usopp looked at Luffy who fell and complained, then looked around, and couldn't help but say, "It's amazing, bubbles can be so tough." ”

After a lot of twists and turns in the first half, Luffy and his gang finally arrived in the Chambord Islands, despite being completely different from the experience in the original book.

This is the final island of the first half, and any road leads to this.

"Hey, hey, hey."

Luffy jumped up from the ground, pressed his straw hat and smiled, and said, "Let's go, let's get to town quickly." ”

Usopp and Frankie followed Luffy behind him, and the purpose of the three of them going to the island was to purchase resources, learn about the island, and the journey to the new world in the second half.

The group soon came to the nearest street.

Luffy was quickly attracted by the various specialties of the Chambord Islands, and drove a bubble car to fly around in the sky, rampage, causing Usopp to shout and quickly spend half a day.

Frankie was not led by Luffy, he inquired about the route, and learned that if he arrived in the New World from here, he would either abandon the ship and go above the Red Earth Continent, or coat the ship and go to Fish-Man Island below the seabed.

"Hey! Luffy, it's time for you two to stop. ”

After walking half a circle down the street, Frankie found Luffy who was still flying around.

Luffy grinned and said, "Is Frankie coming up?!" ”

"Wait and play, I have something to tell you."

Franky beckoned Luffy and Usopp to come down and told Luffy about the two ways to get through the Red Earth Continent, Luffy undoubtedly chose the latter, and it was impossible to abandon the ship.

Frankie touched his chin and said, "That means we'll have to find a coating craftsman, and we'll have to procure supplies later...... Hey, Luffy, did you listen to me! ”

"Huh?"

Luffy turned his head, then looked at Frankie, tilted his head and said, "That person was so strange just now, he kept running back and forth." ”

Frankie said with a headache, "Hey, I'm talking about business, Luffy!" ”

Usopp next to him ignored Franky, and also said curiously: "Yes, Luffy, I also saw it, that person seems to have been running around here all the time for a long time." ”

The corners of Frankie's mouth twitched.

Seeing that Luffy's attention was not on him at all, he also looked in the direction of Usopp and Luffy's gaze, and saw a green-haired figure running quickly down the street.

The figure swooped over and passed the three of them.

Then, it didn't take long for the familiar figure to run back again, running in the opposite direction.

"What is that guy doing?" Usopp said strangely.

"I don't know, it's kind of funny, hahaha."

Luffy smiled and became interested in the short-haired green youth running around as if he was lost, and flew over on a bubble cart, greeting him from the top of the short-haired green-haired youth's head, "What are you doing running around here?" ”

"Running around?"

Zoro looked up at Luffy above him.

Luffy grinned and said, "yes, I see you've been running back and forth seven or eight times." ”

"That's right...... No wonder I find this neighborhood a little familiar. ”

Zoro slowed down, groaning.

I don't know if it's the guidance of fate, or what kind of guidance, Zoro and Luffy happened to appear on this island at the same time, and they happened to meet.

But this is the first time they have met, and Zoro is now one of Albarez's cadres, and before the Chambord Islands, there was almost no intersection with Luffy.

"Ah, you can't be lost."

Luffy's head hung down, his neck stretched very long, and at the same time bent into the shape of a letter J, looking at Zoro, his heart opened his mouth quickly.

Zoro wasn't very surprised by Luffy's appearance, he had seen too many strange abilities, and when he heard Luffy say that he was lost, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said, "No, I'm just not familiar with this neighborhood." ”

"And where are you going?"

Luffy opened his mouth with a grin, I don't know why, he has a good impression of Zoro and wants to help Zoro.

Zoro pondered for a moment and said, "I'm going to the Moore Auction House, I heard that there is a famous knife auction there...... Do you know how to get around? ”

"I don't know."

Luffy shook his head and said with a grin, "But I can help you find it, the auction is also very interesting, I want to go too." ”

Zoro actually didn't want people to help because of the slight shame in finding his way, but thinking that the auction would not wait for anyone, if the famous knife was bought, he would run in vain, and he still nodded for the famous knife he wanted.

"Thank you very much."

"You're welcome."

Luffy drove the bubble car down and said, "My name is Monchi D Luffy, and I'm the man who wants to become One Piece!" ”

"One Piece?"

Zoro glanced at Luffy a little more, heyed, and said, "The goal is very ambitious, I'm Nonoroa Zoro, and my goal is to become the number one swordsman in the world." ”

"Wow! The world's number one swordsman, he's very powerful. ”

Luffy complimented, beckoned Usopp and the others, and took Zoro to find the auction together, and happened to arrive at the last moment when the auction closed for admission.

Seeing that he almost didn't catch up, Zolon, who walked into the venue, showed a friendly look to Luffy and said, "Thank you very much this time." ”

"You're welcome, I just wanted to be here."

Luffy smiled and entered the auction hall with Zoro.

The auction began quickly, and the first one to start was the slave auction, which made Luffy, who looked a little excited at first, gradually pull down the corners of his lips.

In the end, when it was the turn of a mermaid to be put into the fish tank and brought to the auction, Luffy finally got a little annoyed and couldn't help but say, "These are not commodities!" ”

“……”

Zoro was silent, not interested in anything other than knives, but the slave auction on the field made his face a little gloomy.

Until a fishman rushed into the auction hall and tried to save the mermaid Kemi, but was shot several times by the Draco man who bought the mermaid Kemi, and fell to the ground in a pool of blood, Luffy finally couldn't hold it back.

He stood up.

The Draco people were naturally a little annoyed with Luffy who came out, pointed their guns at Luffy, scolded, and saw that Luffy didn't retreat, so they shot Luffy directly.

This shot completely made Luffy angry, and he threw a punch and smashed it into the face of the Draco, slamming it into the sky.

There was silence in the audience.

Countless people showed frightened and horrified looks, and even Zoro showed a hint of strangeness, looking at Luffy's figure, and the hand pressed on the hilt of the sword slowly released.

"This boldness...... Not bad......"

Zoro had already remembered Luffy's identity, a pirate with a bounty of 300 million Bailey, which happened to be one of the several targets he planned to hunt, and after Luffy helped him find the auction, he didn't plan to do anything to Luffy, and he felt a little relieved to see Luffy punch the flying dragon man.
