Four Emperors Fun, Landed In The Drum Kingdom

Night falls.

The fully loaded Sunny and Merry, one after another, raised their sails and slowly sailed down the river towards the sea.

On the deck of the Merry.

"It's unbelievable, coming back empty-handed. Moss Head, it seems that I, Sanji, am the winner of the hunting competition!"

"Uh...!? My prey was just eaten! Anyway, it was definitely bigger than yours!"

"Ah, it's truly unbelievable, still making excuses. Are you even fit to be the captain of the second team? Give it to me!"

"Perfect! I'll use the newly learned Elbaf Spear to stab you to death right now!"

They argued as usual.

Inside the warehouse.

The newly arrived prisoner, Mr. 3, and his partner, Miss Goldenweek, along with the old prisoners Mr. 5, Miss Valentine, and Mr. 9, looked at each other in silence.

If it weren't for all five of them being securely tied up, there was also a green-haired man with a pig nose guarding them at the warehouse entrance.

People who didn't know would think this was a meeting of the Baroque Works executives.

"Yo... Yo, Mr. 5." Mr. 3 awkwardly greeted.

"Isn't this Mr. 3? You're here." Mr. 5 replied with a fake smile.

"Hahaha, who will be next?" Miss Valentine even joked.

When you see others in the same predicament as yourself, your mood suddenly improves.

It's not that we're weak, it's all because the enemy is too cunning!

Who will be next?

Mr. 3's mouth twitched violently. Could it be that even Mr. 0, the Shichibukai Crocodile who has always hidden his identity, will be captured?

"Next... is Mr. 1." He remembered what happened earlier in the wax house and suddenly blended into the environment, starting to look forward to it.

"Mr. 1? That's really something to look forward to."

"Hahaha, when the time comes, what kind of expression should we use to welcome him?"

All three of them had the ability to break free, but when the man with the bull nose at the door glared at them, they were too scared to make a move.

When you can't resist, it's better to find amusement in others suffering.

Mr. 9 and Miss Goldenweek looked at each other and felt speechless about it.

The mouth of the river, by the shore.

Dorry and Brogy bid farewell here, watching the two ships gradually disappear into the moonlight, both with a smile on their faces.

"Will it come out? That food island monster. Forgot to remind them."

"It will definitely come out, but we don't need to worry. With Luffy, there's no problem. He will definitely finds a way."

The two laughed heartily, each holding a bucket of wine and drinking freely.

"Gababababababa!... Nika, the Sun God!"

"Gegyagyagyagya!... The Liberation Warriors have appeared in this era. Indeed, the legends passed down in Elbaf are true!"

"Dorry."

"Yes, it's not the time to continue fighting now. The era is about to undergo a change, Brogy!"

"Let the outcome be decided later, Gababababababa!."

"It's time to return to our homeland, Gegyagyagyagya!~"

The two raised their buckets of wine and wished together:

"May the fortunes of war be with us, Sun God!"

The Thousand Sunny.

"Luffy, what are you doing standing at the bow of the ship? Dinner is ready, it's your favorite."

Nami shouted at Luffy's back.

Luffy stood at the figurehead of the Thousand Sunny, hands in his pockets, waiting silently.

"It's coming."

The sea ahead suddenly became turbulent, and a massive black shadow gradually emerged.

It was a giant goldfish, opening its huge mouth and swallowing seawater.

As the thousand Sunny moved with the flow of the sea, it gradually approached the creature, seemingly about to be swallowed in one gulp.

Boom!

Luffy's gaze sharpened, and in an instant, his Conqueror's Haki was unleashed, the power of his indomitable will impacting the creature's mind.

The overwhelming pressure destroyed the monster's will in an instant.

Fear appeared in its eyes, and its open mouth instinctively closed. Finally, as if avoiding a natural enemy, it disappeared from the surface of the sea in the blink of an eye.

"What was that just now?" Nami exclaimed, her mouth wide open in surprise.

Luffy leaped off the figurehead of the ship and walked over, giving her a kiss before laughing, "Just a mischievous little goldfish, it's gone now. Let's go eat."

Nami blushed and touched her mouth, shyly following him into the cabin.

After dinner, Kaya returned to her room. Her health was not good, and she needed to get enough sleep.

Luffy asked Nami to call the crew of the Merry Go.

At this time, in the Thousand Sunny activity room.

The Straw Hat Pirates gathered together.

Female members: Nami, Nojiko. (Kaya has not joined as a member yet)

Male members: Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Johnny, Yosaku, Bartolomeo

In addition to them, there was also Vivi, who was not a crew member.

Because he rarely had the chance to come on this ship, Sanji was very excited. He even wanted to light a cigarette to suppress his restless heart.

"No smoking here, Sanji," Nami said with a smile.

"I'm sorry, Miss Nami," Sanji quickly extinguished the cigarette and asked, "Luffy, why did you gather us here?"

Upon hearing this, Luffy took out a box of six-style Devil Fruits and placed it on the table.

"This is..." Vivi exclaimed.

She remembered this thing very well. It was because she had stolen and eaten two Devil Fruits that she had become acquainted with Luffy and the others, and now they were all companions.

"These are six-style Devil Fruits," Luffy said.

Luffy opened the box, and the six fruits were neatly arranged in two rows.

Everyone was shocked.

Usopp widened his eyes and said, "Luffy, how many of these do you have?!"

"I've said it before, you might not believe it, but creating a fruit like this requires me to sacrifice ten years of my life," Luffy said.

Nami gave him a disdainful look.

He was still bringing up the past when he used to tease her.

"So, are you going to distribute it to everyone?" She brought the topic back.

Luffy nodded and said seriously, "After eating this kind of fruit, you will randomly gain mastery over one of the six styles, and it will also strengthen your physique.

Usopp, who was most interested, looked around. "Nami has already mastered all six styles, so she doesn't count, but there are eight of us... Luffy."

Upon hearing this, Vivi quickly waved her hand. "I... I ate two of them before without permission! Mr. Luffy, please exclude me!"

["I wasn't planning on giving it to you in the first place."]

["Of course, I can't say that, it would make others feel awkward."]

Luffy sat casually, supporting his cheek with one hand, and said, "Nami, you explain the specific six styles to them first. Whether they want to eat it or not is up to them. Of course, it's not a Devil Fruit, so there won't be any side effects of turning into a dry duck."

Nami nodded in response and began to explain the six styles she knew in detail.

After listening, everyone was very excited.

They are truly superhuman!

Even in the Grand Line, where monsters abound, once you master the six styles, you will become a skilled fighter.

Moreover, after mastering the basic six styles, you can develop different techniques based on your own training, making it highly adaptable.

"Tempest Kick?"

Zoro was most interested in this move and grinned, "Since you can kick out slashes, you can also use a sword to slash out flying slashes, just like Hawk-Eye once cut the sea with a single slash."

Saying that, he got up from the table.

"I won't use it, Luffy. Since I'm the captain of the first team , I won't compete with a certain perverted kappa. I'm going to train. I just came up with a good idea!"

Sanji's forehead immediately formed a cross, and he clenched his fist!

"Hahaha, then it's perfect, one fruit for each of the six of us. Sanji, do you want to eat it?" Luffy nudged him with a sly smile.

"Eat it? Of course I will!" Sanji's hair was on fire as he picked up one and took a bite, resentfully saying, "After I finish eating, I'll send him to hell! What does the moss head think of himself, it's like he's looking down on me!"

Nami shook her head speechlessly at this and picked up the remaining fruits, distributing them to everyone. The last one was given to her sister, Nojiko.

"I also got one, is it really okay?" Nojiko was both surprised and hesitant.

"Let's eat, eventually all the crew members will master the six styles. This is the basic configuration of our Straw Hat Pirates. Nojiko, aren't you my crew member?" Luffy laughed.

Upon hearing him say this, Nojiko reluctantly smiled.

No wonder Nami is so infatuated with him, she has become a love-struck fool. He is indeed a man that is hard to resist.

What an annoying guy~ How can she refuse when he says that!

"Eat, sister." Nami rarely called out "sister."

"I'll start!" Usopp decisively ate, swallowing even the fruit core in one bite.

The rest of the people also began to eat.

In the next moment, the six people present widened their eyes, digesting the knowledge flooding into their minds.

....... 

[You have arrived at a new island, Prehistoric Island Little Garden. Reward: 1000 adventure coins.]

[You have sailed in the Sea of Paradise for 3 days. Reward: 300 adventure coins.]

[You have arrived at a new island, Drum Island. Reward: 1000 adventure coins.]

[Adventure coins: 365 → 2665]

The dried-up wallet swelled up once again.

Three days later, Drum Island.

This is the third island Luffy encountered after entering the Grand Line.

It is a winter island, from a distance it looks like it is covered in a layer of silver-white snow. The most distinctive feature is the three cylindrical peaks on the island.

It is precisely because of this that the peaks on the island resemble drums, hence the name "Drum Island."

When the ship sailed into the island from the river mouth, everyone gathered on the deck.

"What a beautiful island."

Kaya, dressed in a white fur coat, admired the snowy scenery with a face full of astonishment.

This kind of scenery is something that can never be seen in Syrup Village.

At the same time, this is her destination in the Grand Line.

"Now that you are going to be cured are you happy?"

Luffy sat on the edge of the ship, turned around and smiled at Kaya.

"Thank you, Mr. Luffy, I'm very happy~" Kaya revealed a brilliant smile, as if it could melt the snowflakes of winter.

"But, the people here... seem to not welcome us very much."

Nami stood beside Luffy, her hands gripping the ship's railing, looking at the soldiers on both sides.

No, they're not soldiers, their attire is just that of ordinary civilians, but they're holding guns.

Everyone looks at the Straw Hat Crew with a mixture of fear and disgust.

"This is the treatment pirates should receive, the situation in Whisky Peak was an exception, an exception!" Nami said with a laugh, completely unfazed.

Luffy, on the other hand, knew what was going on and being unwelcome was expected.

"Go back, pirates!"

"We don't welcome you here!"

"If you continue to dock, we will shoot and kill you!"

A scolding voice came from the militia, and many people had already raised their guns.

Among them, a man with a square face, wearing a green winter coat, and carrying a giant iron shovel on his back.

"Pirates, go back, don't force us to take action!" he shouted.

On the deck of the Merry Go.

Yosalu shouted in dissatisfaction, "We're not here to plunder the city, we just want to find a doctor..."

Bang!

The sound of a gunshot rang out, and a bullet suddenly shot out.

Yosaku was startled, his pupils shrinking.

"Iron Body!"

He instinctively tensed his body, the bullet hitting his shoulder, but it sounded as if it had hit steel and was instead deflected.

The area where he was hit had a hole in his clothes, but his skin underneath was unharmed.

"What?! The gun didn't work!" The militiaman who fired the shot was shocked and immediately looked at the leader beside him.

The man with the square face had a solemn expression.

Nami helplessly said, "What should we do, Luffy?"

"Its okay, watch me perform," Luffy grinned.

In the next moment, he had disappeared from his original position.

When he reappeared, he was already standing in front of the man with a square face.

Hundreds of militiamen were shocked and turned their guns towards Luffy.

"Dalton."

"Do you know me?" Dalton took a step back, looking at Luffy with suspicion.

"I am Monkey D. Luffy, an acquaintance of Dr. Kureha. I came here just to treat a patient."

"That old witch..."

Dalton paused for a moment.

Immediately, he waved his hand, instructing the militiamen to lower their guns.

At the same time, he looked towards two pirate ships, and on the deck of the Sunny, he saw Kaya.

The young lady looked weak and needed the support of another woman. It must be her.

"I understand. I was very rude just now, I apologize."

After a moment of contemplation, Dalton apologized for his previous actions.

Dr. Kureha, the old witch, was already over 140 years old and the only doctor on the island.

Everyone had received her care to some extent, so if they were acquaintances of the old witch, they were considered guests.

Moreover...

These pirates weren't even afraid of gunfire. If a real conflict were to break out, their side would suffer heavy casualties.

No, it would be more accurate to say that not retaliating in anger and showing a friendly attitude was already a display of goodwill.

"Follow me, I'll take you to the village."

Luffy turned around and smiled at everyone, saying, "Get off the ship."

Immediately, the crew of the Sunny and the Merry lowered their sails and dropped anchor, one after another stepping onto the snowy ground.

The crowd followed Dalton and walked towards the nearest village.

He explained, "A few months ago, a group of pirates called Blackbeard landed on this island and destroyed this country."

"Oh, no wonder you guys are so nervous," Yosaku immediately forgave the other party.

"Blackbeard?" Zoro frowned.

"Yeah, just five people, and they destroyed our country! It happened almost instantly!"

Five people?!

The crowd was slightly shocked.

Luffy shook his head and said, "I know them. The captain of the Blackbeard Pirates is Marshall D. Teach. He used to be a member of the Four Emperors Whitebeard Pirates. After killing his comrades, he betrayed and formed his own pirate crew."

"I see," Bartolomeo suddenly realized, "No wonder, Luffy-sama, you know everything!"

"The crew of the Four Emperors... the Whitebeard Pirates!" Usopp shivered.

"Hahaha, speaking of which, Whitebeard was an interesting person. He really liked leopard prints, so he made the female nurses on his ship wear leopard print stockings. Otherwise, he would get angry and refuse to get injections."

Luffy laughed and shared stories about the Four Emperors.

"And there's Benn Beckman, the vice captain of the Red Hair Pirates. This guy is also a pervert, he really likes women. Sanji, you'll definitely have something in common with him when you meet!"

"Well, maybe he wil take Sanji to visit a brothel," Luffy laughed.

Everyone burst into laughter.

As they chatted along the way, Dalton was completely confused.

What's going on with these pirates?!

They casually mentioned the Four Emperors, the Shichibukai, and even dared to make fun of the Marine Fleet Admiral and Marine Admirals.

Because the topics were too high-level, he couldn't join in the conversation and could only silently act as a guide.

Soon, a small village covered in white snow came into view.

"Here is our village, called Shoucho Village!"

Pausing for a moment, Dalton smiled again and said, "Welcome to Drum Island~"
