Chapter 107 Returning To The Capital Of Water Seven

Luffy stooped to retrieve the reward order, his gaze settling on it with a sense of nonchalance.

No surprises here.

Soaring from a mere 71 million to the current 3.5 billion bounty, it's safe to say it falls short of expectations.

A robust 4 billion feels more fitting, aligning better with his sheer strength and the escalating threat he poses to the government.

Maybe the reason he hasn't breached that 4 billion mark lies in the absence of a formidable crew, setting him apart from the other Four Emperors.

Now, there are a few changes.

Firstly, the bounty have been from a strict live-capture mandate, transforming to a life or death bounty. 

Secondly, the once straightforward photo is replaced into the Ni~ka form, introducing an unexpected layer to the unfolding narrative.

"Luffy Sama, with such a high bounty, there will definitely be a big Marine Admiral watching you all the time!"

Sandersonia expressed concern.

Luffy put the reward order aside, opened the newspaper and glanced briefly.

The headline on the front page was, of course, the death of Whitebeard. As the most important news in recent years, Morgans acted very quickly. What happened in the morning was in the newspapers in the evening.

The article praised Marine's bravery and invincibility, but didn't say a word about the escape of Fire Fist Ace.

win!

Anyone can win!

The newspaper also detailed that he, the former Seven Warlords of the Sea, fought back during the Summit War, destroyed Naval Headquarters, and caused huge casualties to Marine.

Nonsense.

Most of the Marine casualties came from the war itself.

The government is pouring dirty water on him.

Luffy smiled disdainfully.

This is definitely not news written by Morgans, it is definitely inspired by the World Government.

"Luffy."

At this time, the empress who had taken a bath came in with a scent of fragrance after bathing.

Seeing her sister, Sandersonia was surprised.

Compared with the past, the current elder sister seems more... coquettish.

"Hancock, I have to go back to the capital of seven waters as soon as possible, so I won't be with you for now.

Luffy handed her the newspaper, and then asked: "Sonia, which direction is the capital of the seven waters?"

"The ship is now sailing in the direction of Daughter's Island, the capital of the seven waters... at three o'clock.

"Thanks."

As he said that, Luffy quickly changed his clothes, walked to the window, and opened the Nika form.

Although it is night now, it doesn't matter anymore, and he must rush back as soon as possible.

Oh, it's all the empress's fault, causing him to waste an afternoon and a month of his saved energy.

"Wait, Luffy, I will send you to the capital of seven waters... There is no record pointer on the Grand Line, it is easy to get lost."

The Empress spoke worriedly.

Her face was full of reluctance, after all, the two them just had an in depth communication.

Luffy shook his head and said, "I'll see you next time, take care, Hancock."

As he spoke, he jumped up and flew away from the window.

In the night sky, the sun streaks across the sky.

The empress hurriedly walked to the window, her slender fingers gripped the newspaper tightly.

"See you soon, Luffy~"

Just as Luffy was rushing to the capital of seven waters.

There are also people traveling in the air.

"What does the bear... mean? After the war, he is not himself anymore? What the hell happened outside while I was in prison?"

Ivankov scratched his dark purple afro.

A figure emerged from his hair.

The man's hairstyle is similar to the "club blossom" in the playing cards. The left half of his hair is orange and the right half is white, and he holds a glass of red wine in his left hand.

"Master Ivankov, we can see the island now, it's Baltigo."

"Lightning, it's you, you scared me to death haha~!"

Ivankov was startled, his eyes popped out.

He immediately followed the direction of the lightning and saw an island.

Isle of White Clay, Baltigo.

A barren island full of sand and rocks.

At the same time, it is also the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army.

The transparent bear's paw enveloping the two of them dropped rapidly, and finally landed in front of a base built among the rocks with a "boom".

Before the two got up from the ground.

Under the night, a gust of wind blew by, and a man in a green cloak immediately appeared in front of the two of them.

"Ivankov?"

Dragon said in astonishment: "Just now I suddenly felt two auras, it turned out to be you.

"Dragon, do you have a son?" As soon as they met, Ivankov couldn't help but ask, "Monkey D. Luffy?"

Dragon was silent for a while, then nodded:

"I didn't mention it to you, sorry, but I don't like people prying into my past.

After being confirmed, Ivankov crossed his arms and said with emotion:

"As expected of your son, he is as powerful as a monster. Have you watched the live broadcast of Summit War?"

"Hmm. What's going on with you guys?"

Dragon was silent, looked down at the bear paw-shaped depression under the two people's feet, and immediately understood.

This is Kuma's ability, it was Kuma who sent the two of them flying.

"By the way, there's something about your son, he has important information..."

Finally remembering the business, Ivankov immediately told Dragon the news that Luffy wanted to convey.

After listening, Long looked shocked.

" Imu? 800 years ago, one of the original 20 Lords who created the world government?"

Such a person does exist.

Not only he, but even Ivankov had heard of the name.

"Is the intelligence true? Have that person lived until now?" Long frowned.

"It was your son who said it, you have to ask him hehe~ Anyway, my mission is completed, that guy Kuma, your subordinates is still in Marineford, won't he be arrested again?"

Ignoring Ivankov's complaints, the dragon fell into deep thought.

It was obvious that Luffy had deliberately asked someone to bring him this kind of information.

After pondering for a moment, he took out an anti-tapping phone bug.

"This is the headquarters of Shijing. I'm Morgans. If you have this number and dare to call, you must have some important news?"

A slightly sharp voice came from the opposite side.

"I am a revolutionary, Dragon."

Far away in the headquarters of the World Economic News Agency in New World.

It was an airship.

In the office, the pupils of "King of News" Morgans suddenly shrank.

Revolutionary Dragon?

Isn't that the leader of the Revolutionary Army!?

"I have important news. Once I report to the public, it will cause a shock all over the world."

Listening to the sound of the phone bug ringing, Morgans became excited:

"Please tell me, the remuneration will definitely satisfy you."

"You don't need to be paid, because once published in the newspaper, you might be hunted down by the world government."

so serious?!

Not only was Morgas not afraid, but he felt his blood was boiling.

"Please tell me!"

"About Celestial Dragons....…"

Going back in time a little.

about a month ago.

The capital of seven waters.

On an outlying island in the outer city, there is a "disintegration business" that specializes in dismantling abandoned ships.

Its owner is Franky, and while running this job, he also has a side job as a bounty hunter.

When the Straw Hat Pirates landed on the island, their subordinates also came to report immediately.

"Brother Franky, on the south coast, Seven Warlords of the Sea straw hat Luffy's pirate ship is flying in the sky!! I've never seen such a ship before!"

Franky sat on the dilapidated sofa, holding a bottle of Coke in his hand, and drank heavily.

"A ship flying in the sky?"

"Yes! Not only that, but that ship is made of an unbelievable amount of gold!"

The subordinates were struggling to describe what they saw.

The appearance of dancing and dancing, seemed extremely excited.

Franky was dumbfounded.

"Impossible, there is so much gold?! According to your description, there must be tens of thousands of tons? Did they find the legendary gold town?"

Tens of thousands of tons sounds like a lot, but it's actually not much.

"It's true, Brother Franky, if you don't believe me, go and see, the ship is hovering over there!"

Under the leadership of the younger brothers, Franky came to the stop of Straw Hat Crew.

Even if it is far away, under the sunlight, the light reflected by the gold is very exciting.

"There are so many!!"

Franky widened his eyes in disbelief, subconsciously began to calculate, how much is this?

The current market price of a ton of gold is about 1 billion beli.

That ship simply has more than 10,000 tons...a total of more than 10 trillion Baileys!!?

Unbelievable wealth is in his sight!

This is simply a invincible wealth, how many islands and countries can be bought with so much money!

Of course, except for some big countries, such as Alabasta.

"Big, big brother, you are not planning to snatch it right?" The younger brother swallowed, "That's a Shichibukai's ship!"

"What is a Shichibukai! Who do you think I am?"

Franky pointed at the Ark Maxim, grinned and said: "Let's go, take me to meet those pirates and ask them if they need help!"

#:"..."

Franky patted him on the head, "What are you doing in a daze? We are businessmen!"

"Yes, businessman."

The subordinates agreed helplessly, and then led Franky towards Zoro and the others.

Back to the present time.

At night, the capital of seven waters. A small bar.

There is a closed sign on the door of the bar.

But in the bar, there is a group gathered here.

They seem to be attending a masquerade ball, wearing gorgeous but strange costumes, and wearing different hoods on their heads.

The owner of this bar is called Blueno.

He was wearing a black suit and had horn-like hair.

At this time, while wiping the glass, he said honestly:

"What are your plans for tonight?"

One of the voices was female and she said: "According to the investigation, although it cannot be confirmed 100%, but the things are in the hands of the target, the possibility is extremely high. But this month, he was on the golden ship, helping the Straw Hat Crew to transform the ship... The purpose seems to be earning some gold.

The other two looked at each other and spoke one after another. They were both men:

"To be honest, it is indeed a huge sum of money, and it is only natural that that guy would be tempted."

"'Don't care about the Shichibukai anymore. This is today's news!"

Spread a newspaper on the table, and at the same time, there is a reward order.

"Straw hat Luffy's Shichibukai title has been stripped, let's act tonight!"

"3.5 billion!?" The woman was taken aback.

"Whether it's 3.5 billion or 35 billion, I don't think it's important. We have only one goal!"

"What about Nico Robin?"

"Leave her alone."

Can't afford it.

Several people looked at each other.

Blueno puts the glass

Next, he said honestly: "How to do it specifically?"

"Separate action, Kaku and I go to arrest people, you go to Galley-La Company, cause a commotion!"

Hearing this, Blueno bent down and took out a fancy dress from under the bar, and also put on a hood.

Afterwards, the four immediately took action.

Taking advantage of the darkness, they walked in the air without disturbing anyone.

the next day.

When the morning sun shone on the capital of seven waters, Luffy finally arrived at his destination.

From a distance, he saw the Ark Maxim, still suspended in mid-air as it was when he left.

It's just that the ship has changed a lot since he left.

It has become more beautiful.

"Hoo...Finally found it, and almost lost my way to Alabasta again."

Luffy immediately activated the ability of the sunlight fruit, quickly recovering his physical strength.

His return route can be described as twists and turns.

He almost ran to Alabasta, and turned around to find the capital of seven waters, and saw the long Ring island in the middle.

In a place like the Grand Line, it is really impossible to not have a record pointer, even if you can fly, you can easily get lost.

At this time, unfolding his Observation Haki, he was suddenly taken aback.

In the his perception, almost everyone in the straw hats gathered on the deck of the Ark Maxim.

"Strange Breath"

Immediately, he hurried over.

Coming to the deck, He immediately saw Nami and Vivi.

"Luffy!" Nami's eyes lit up, and she ran over happily, throwing herself into his arms like a baby swallow returning to its nest.

Sniff!

Sniffing like a puppy waiting for its owner to return, Nami said suspiciously:

"smell good..."

Luffy:"..."

[Phew, I really forgot to take a bath, and the smell of the empress still lingers on my body.]

"Mr. Luffy." Vivi greeted with a smile.

"Luffy!"

"Luffy Sama!"

"Brother Luffy!"

A group of people gathered around.

Luffy immediately changed the subject: "These people..."

Only then did he see that there were four people tightly bound on the deck, three men and one woman.

Member of World Government's agent cp9.

They are Rob Lucci, Kaku, Kalifa, and Blueno.

"About this, I was going to ask you how to deal with it."

Nami just wanted to explain.

Franky with a hammer came over:

"You're Straw Hat Luffy? These guys came after me, last night..."

Last night, Kaku and Lucci took advantage of the late night to sneak into the Ark Maxim, but they were discovered by Zoro at the first time.

Afterwards, it was naturally defeated by the Straw Hat Crew.

You know, there are more than a dozen capable people here, five of them have completely mastered the six styles, and there are more than eight people who have mastered three of the six styles.

There are only two special agents, nothing more than free food delivery.

On the other hand, Blueno and Kalifa raided the Galley-La Company, trying to force the mayor Iceberg, and they did cause a commotion.

Afterwards, Nami, who rushed, gave a helping second hand to Iceberg.

"I see."

After listening, Luffy found it interesting.

cp9 gave up Robin, but not Franky.

And Franky, coincidentally wanted gold, because of Shichibukai's prestige, he didn't dare to force it, so he had to work to make money.

So, it became what it is now.

Looking at the straw hat Luffy walking towards him and others, Rob Lucci said in a deep voice:

"We have no intention of making you an enemy, Monkey D. Luffy, just a man named Franky.

Luffy grinned and said: "I know your identities. The person who masters the six styles is either a Marine or a government agent. I probably know what you are looking for."

Blueprint of Pluton.

Hearing this, the pupils of several people shrank suddenly.

"Give you a chance to choose, join me now and continue to work for me, or die!"
