It's been a week since he left the sea restaurant Barati, and in order to lay the foundation for Luffy and Zoro, Victor didn't choose to use the 'Nylon Zip Sky Gondola' to take the empty road, but spent four days driving with the Straw Hats to the sea near Cocosia Village. Because Cocosia Village is one of the few islands in the East China Sea where a hunter branch is stationed, the Straw Hat Pirates had to say goodbye to Victor and his party when they approached the waters of Cocosia Village.

During this time, Luffy and Zoro received Victor's 'easy and pleasant training', yes, very easy and enjoyable. It was so pleasant that even a ruthless person like Luffy, who had been trained by hardships in his childhood, was a little unbearable, and he and Zoro gritted their teeth and resisted for four days, although they were covered in bruises, but they benefited a lot.

Even Victor had to admit that both of them were talented. Luffy, in particular, only took four days to train the 'seed' of armed color domineering, and his talent is far stronger than others, and only Victor himself can match it.

Although they don't say it, Luffy and Zoro already see Victor as a respectable master, and when they part, the Straw Hats cried a lot, and only Zoro stood by the side of the boat with his arms crossed and maintained a cool man posture.

Maybe Victor was still a little jealous of Luffy as the protagonist when he first learned the plot, but now he doesn't have this ridiculous mentality for a long time. Helping these original protagonists is just a small episode in Victor's life, not worth mentioning.

After parting ways with the Straw Hats, the Beagle arrived at the village of Cocosia.

Today, the village of Cocosia has been renamed Cocosia Town, and the town has grown several times in size to become quite prosperous. First, it was able to use the Coral Chamber of Commerce's trade routes to sell a large number of high-quality oranges and handmade products, and also because the coral flag was hoisted to avoid the invasion of pirates. The second reason is that it is one of only two Hunters' Guild branches in the East China Sea, and a large number of bounty hunters come and go to the town every day, making the town extremely lively.

Nami's adoptive mother, Bermel, is now the director of the orange orchard in Cocosia, and she could have been the mayor of the town for a long time with her prestige, but she always shirked it on the grounds that it was too troublesome, too boring, and not that time. Taking care of the orange grove and raising her daughter are her passions. The small home in the middle of the orange grove is plastered with newspaper clippings from Nami, and Nami's sister Nokigao has also become an official orange orchard caretaker since last year, and enjoys it.

After two days in the village of Cocosia, Nami said goodbye to Bermel and Nokigao in the harbor, and then the Beagle took off and headed for the distant sky.

It only took one day for Victor to find his goal.

In the East China Sea, there is an incomparably huge group of floating islands floating over a certain sea area.

The main island is a large floating island, surrounded by a large number of small companion islands, dense jungles and even waterfalls and lakes, where a large number of dangerous beasts lurk.

This spectacular scene is not a natural formation, but a strategic flight base created by some pirate using the power of the fruit.

This floating island base flying high in the East China Sea is called [StrongWorld].

“…… So, that 'golden lion' is hiding in this floating island? ”

Dressed in a white crop top shirt and low-rise jeans, Nami holds a pergola and looks out at the floating islands in the distance.

"The pirate 'Golden Lion' who competed with One Piece Roger at the same time...... What a good opponent! ”

Ace, who was wearing an orange cowboy hat, couldn't suppress his excitement: "Boss, leave it to me!" I'll deal with him! ”

Victor smiled and shook his head: "Ace, don't underestimate the golden lion." The Golden Lion Fleet he led almost wiped out the Roger Pirates in the waters of Atwall. ”

"Oh? Boss, can you tell us more about it? Ace was suddenly energetic, and later generations mentioned the Battle of Atwall was vague, and very few people knew the inside story. Ace knew that his boss had a wide range of sources, and he was always able to know some extremely secret inquiries and secrets hidden in the long history that not many people knew.

"The Golden Lion's real name is Shiki, and he is known as one of the three legendary pirates along with Whitebeard and One Piece. He is a floating man who has eaten the fluttering fruit of the superhuman system. As you can guess from the name, those floating islands are his masterpieces. ”

Victor took the steaming coffee from little Beagle, thanked him, and continued to tell a story:

"His abilities are similar to those of my Chain Fruit, both of which are 'erosive' superhuman abilities that cannot be used against life forms other than themselves. All inanimate objects he touches, as well as himself, can be affected by the Fluttering Fruit's ability to fly through the air without gravity, earning him the title of 'Flying Pirate'. ”

Ace tilted his head: "It sounds very similar to the fruitful ability of the master of his life." ”

"It sounds similar, but it's actually very different."

Victor shook his head, took a sip of his coffee, and said:

"He was once a member of the Locks Pirates, and gathered under the command of the Crazy Pirates Locks, along with the world-famous warriors such as 'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate, 'BIGMOM' Charlotte Lingling, 'Beasts' Kaido, and Captain John. After the destruction of the Rocks Pirates, everyone scattered and went their separate ways, and the Golden Lion recruited troops with his strong strength and excellent leadership skills, and gathered a huge flying air pirates and the Golden Lion Pirates fleet. ”

"The feud between the Golden Lion and One Piece Roger lasted for decades, and eventually, a shocking war broke out between the two sides in the waters of Atwall in the New World, which was later called the 'Battle of Atwall'. The Golden Lion Armada, with nearly a hundred huge warships, surrounded One Piece Roger's Oro Jackson. You must know that the oppressive force created by the huge disparity in numbers in naval warfare is a gap that cannot be filled by individual strength. ”

"The Roger Pirates, who were at the end of their rope, were rescued by a sudden violent weather. The once-in-a-lifetime super storm sank most of the warships in the Golden Lion's fleet to the bottom of the sea, and that's not all, the Golden Lion himself suffered an 'accident' in the storm. The stalemate on the battlefield was finally broken, and the Roger Pirates desperately escaped from the waters of Atwall, and this sea battle is also known as the 'prelude' before the beginning of the era of the Sea Pirates. ”

While talking, the Beagle had already flown close to the floating island group, and there was a flying island ship floating on the opposite side, which was the main ship of the Flying Pirates, the 'Lion'.

The Golden Lion has sensed the invasion of foreign enemies in the air and is ready to meet the enemy.
