======================
In the blink of an eye, a week passed by.
The Thriller Bark set sail again according to the original plan and continued to move forward.
In addition to developing devil fruit abilities, exercising his physical skills, and practicing swordsmanship, Luke also guides Wyper, Perona, Brook, Van Augur, and Hogback's practice.
What makes him more satisfied is that Perona and Brook have made rapid progress and have mastered one of the six superhuman fighting skills: Shave.
The reason why Brook came from behind is not only because of his own strength, but also because he only has a handful of bones left and his body weight is relatively light, so practicing Shave can be said to be twice the result with half the effort.
Wyper showed his tenacious will during this period and let Perona, Brook, and others marvel.
"Luke-sama, this is the Eternal Pose of the Drum Kingdom!"
This day, at noon, when Luke and others finished their training and began to enjoy their meals.
A zombie respectfully handed over an hourglass-like device with only one orb in the middle.
"Luke-sama, aren't we going directly to Little Garden?"
Hogback was surprised.
According to Luke's plan, they will go to a prehistoric island, Little Garden, and then to Bucklow Island, located at the entrance of the Grand Line, to retrieve Captain John's treasure.
Then, go to Twin Cape to fulfill Brook's wish.
"Well, the course remains unchanged, but I may have to leave for two days..."
After swallowing a piece of meat in the bone, Luke said nonchalantly.
Next, he is going to visit the Drum Kingdom and capture Wapol.
After all, if he doesn't have such an interesting ability in hand, it would be a waste of money to let that guy waste Munch-Munch Fruit's abilities.
However, considering that the Drum Kingdom is, after all, one of the countries that joined the World Government,
And he still needs to wear the identity of Warlord of the Sea, it is difficult to attack directly, otherwise he will definitely anger the World government.
In order to appease other affiliated countries, the World Government will definitely directly remove Gecko Moria from the Seven Warlords of the Sea and even send Marines to attack him.
Therefore, there is no need to make such a big fanfare.
It is best to seize the target quietly to avoid attracting suspicion and attention from the outside world.
"Eh? Luke, do you want to go alone?" Perona was surprised.
"Well, I'll set off in a moment..." After swallowing a piece of pizza, Luke ordered:
"You just stay on the boat and continue on your way. I will meet you again then!"
…
"Wuhuhu—"
Not long after, under Wyper, Perona, Brook, and others' eyes, after finishing his meal, Luke didn't waste any more time.
He took some dry food and the Eternal Pose of the Drum Kingdom and flew directly towards the distance.
The next day, at dusk.
Following the guidance of the Eternal Pose.
Luke, who was tired of his travels, came to the Drum Kingdom.
"Huh, it's really a bit cold!" Looking at this winter island covered in ice and snow, Luke chuckled while flying in the sky.
The royal castle is located on the snowy peak.
It looks like an iron bucket standing there, which is very eye-catching.
After Luke finishes his dinner in the deserted wilderness,
It was already evening.
With the help of the darkness of the night, he easily sneaked into the castle where the royal family was.
It didn't take much effort to find out Wapol's location.
"Buzz..." An invisible wave spread suddenly.
One of the guards foamed at his mouth, lost consciousness, and fell down, including Wapol himself, who was sleeping soundly.
Then Luke directly used the prepared Sea Prism Stone handcuffs to cuff Wapol, who was unconscious and left the Drum Kingdom quietly with him.
"No, King Wapol has been kidnapped!"
The next day, early in the morning.
The news that King Wapol had been kidnapped spread directly throughout the Drum Kingdom, causing a huge sensation.
However, countless people in the Drum Kingdom sang, danced, and played their musical instruments to celebrate.
Many people cried with joy and prayed that Wapol would never come back.
This shows how unpopular this king is.
However, this has nothing to do with Luke.
At this time, on an uninhabited island.
Luke took Wapol with him and briefly rested there.
"Ahhh! Who are you?" Wapol, who was full of fear and panic, struggled desperately.
However, he is bound tightly by the dark shadow strings, and he can't move at all.
Moreover, his hands were handcuffed with Sea Prism Stone.
In the past, with the blessing of the Munch-Munch Fruit ability, the mouth that could be opened extremely wide and easily crush steel was ineffective at this time.
"I am the king of a country that has joined the World Government. If you don't let me go quickly, the world government will chase you to the end of the world…" Wapol speaks loudly with a stern voice.
"Shut up!"
Luke, who was eating a piece of beef jerky on the side, glanced at him.
The ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit was activated, and a black substance condensed on his hand, and he flicked it casually.
"Woo... Wu..." The black substance was like tape, sealing Wapol's mouth firmly.
He couldn't speak anymore.
Suddenly, Luke's eyes narrowed.
Looking at the sea in the distance.
A black spot grew bigger and turned into a ship.
And it's also a pirate ship.
"Pirate ship?"
He took out a list of bounties and flipped through it.
After comparing the increasingly clear pirate flags above, he quickly found the relevant information, making Luke's eyebrows raised: "The Trump Pirates?"
"Captain Bear King, with a bounty of 11.6 million Belly and the Paramecia user of the Kachi Kachi no Mi?"
(A/N: No official English Name.
(Kachi Kachi no Mi: Sound of knocking stones together to create a fire.)
The bounty is low, though.
But as a devil fruit user, his strength is obviously more than that.
Looking at Wapol, who kept struggling, Luke smiled: "Just right, you can give it a try!!"
