Chapter 55 The Posture Of A King! You Are Too Weak! (Thanks To Xiaokang For The Monthly Ticket)
"The baddest newcomer?!"
Smoker muttered.
The next second, he smiled disdainfully and snorted coldly.
"Hmph! Those guys at headquarters are really stupid!"
"Can a boy like this be rewarded with 60 million Baileys?"
After hearing what Smoker said, a Marine soldier next to him said with a lie.
"Colonel Smoker, you must not underestimate him!"
"The report says that this Monkey D. Luffy killed Arlong with a bounty of 20 million Baileys with one punch."
"He also killed Colonel Mouse of the 16th branch in front of his headquarters. He was a vicious pirate!"
Seeing the soldier's performance, Smoker's eyes showed shame.
He snorted disdainfully again.
"Hmph! The report said that when the rat reported, he was in a panic, and this straw hat boy also appeared next to him."
"The straw hat boy must have deliberately forced the mouse to say this in order to become famous."
"That rat is a waste to begin with. He succumbed to the slightest threat."
"What an embarrassment to us Marine!"
The soldier was stunned when he heard this.
"Eh?! Is that so?"
I have to say, it seems to make sense!
Smoker once again snorted with disdain.
"Hmph! This is a common trick used by pirates who want to be famous.
"I think those guys from our headquarters are too far away from the front line to believe that rat's stupid words."
"As the weakest sea among the four seas, East Blue, how could such unprecedented pirates appear?!"
The soldier was convinced at this time, and suddenly looked like he had a sudden realization.
"So this is ah!"
"As expected of Colonel Smoker!"
Smoker's lips raised when he heard this, and there was infinite confidence in his eyes.
"Since I was transferred to Logue town, I have never let go of a pirate."
"Over the years, Logue town has achieved unprecedented peace under my watch."
"Look! If that straw hat boy wants to go to the Grand Line, he will definitely come to Logue town."
"When the time comes, I will let him know that the fame gained through such clever tricks is vulnerable to absolute strength!!!"
The soldier was completely conquered by Smoker's momentum and confidence. The admiration in his eyes was even brighter than the stars, and he sighed from the bottom of his heart again.
"As expected of Colonel Smoker!!!"
Smoker no longer continued to enjoy the Marine soldier's flattery, but suddenly frowned and asked.
"Where is Tashigi? Has she not come back after being out for so long?"
"If we count the time, the Straw Hat Boys should be here soon."
"Everyone must be ready for battle at all times!"
Seeing that Smoker seemed a little angry, the soldier immediately replied with some fear.
"Tashigi Cho said he went to the weapons store to get a knife."
Smoker frowned upon hearing this.
"Does it take hours to get a knife? That stupid woman......"
"Colonel Smoker! Colonel Smoker......"
At this moment, a panicked exclamation suddenly came from outside the door.
Smoker frowned, very unhappy with this performance.
He looked at the door, and soon, a Marine Corporal ran in.
The corporal saluted and reported with fear in his eyes.
"Colonel Smoker, the most evil newcomer [Straw Hat Monkey D. Luffy] appears!"
Smoker originally wanted to reprimand the Marine in front of him for his flustered behavior, but when he heard Luffy's name, he immediately slapped the table and asked.
"Where is he?"
Finally, let him wait. He must expose the hypocritical mask of the Straw Hat boy and let the world see clearly that he is just a shameless person who can play tricks.
The corporal was also deeply surprised to see Smoker's excitement.
I have never seen Colonel Smoker so motivated!
It seems that Colonel Smoker is bound to win against the Straw Hats!
As expected of Colonel Smoker!!!
Corporal Marine replied, feeling flattered in his heart.
"There are reports that Straw Hat Luffy was seen going to the execution square of former Pirate King Gol D. Roger."
Upon hearing this, Smoker immediately rushed out the door.
At the same time, he left a message to the Marine soldiers behind him.
"Assemble the troops and blockade the port. I will kill all the Straw Hat Crew here!"
"Yes! Colonel Smoker!!!"
Execution Square!
Because the former Pirate King was executed here, people always come here to visit.
So at this moment, the square is also packed with people.
Luffy stood in the distance, across the crowd, looking at the simple-looking execution platform from a distance.
"Is that where Roger was executed?"
Luffy sighed with emotion, and then the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily.
To truly feel Roger's heroic aura before his execution, of course you have to step onto the execution platform in person.
I saw Luffy flick his arm.
The next second, his body was brought to the execution platform.
Seeing the figure that suddenly appeared on the execution platform, the audience immediately started talking.
"Hey! What happened to that person? Why is he in that place?"
"I thought I saw that man's arms stretched out just now. Is it the legendary Demon fruit power?"
"Hey! The guy in the straw hat, come down quickly."
"It is an execution platform under the special jurisdiction of the World Government. You are not allowed to go up there."
There was a lot of noise and discussion below the execution platform.
Luffy stood on the high platform, looking down at the crowds of people below, as if he had seen with his own eyes what Roger had seen.
The next moment, his vision gradually blurred and his eyes became dim.
And when his vision became clear again, a completely new scene came into view.
There were huge crowds of people on the square.
Everyone's eyes were looking at the same place, a towering and isolated execution platform.
There is a long staircase leading to the execution platform.
At this moment, a tall man with a mustache was walking up step by step.
He has shackles on his hands, but he is like a proud king.
Everyone in the audience could only hold back and marvel at his aura that looked down upon the world.
On the high platform, "were two executioners waiting to execute the man.
But at this moment, the two executioners were sweating profusely and looking tense.
The man walked onto the high platform, sat cross-legged, lowered his head slightly, smiled lightly, and said to the two executioners beside him.
"Come on! Get it done quickly!"
Upon hearing this, the two executioners raised their swords and crossed them in front of the man.
Preparing for the final execution.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the crowd.
"Hey! Pirate King!"
"Where did you hide all the treasure you found?"
"Is it really the [Grand Line]?"
"You got it, right?"
"That legendary secret treasure..."
"That unique secret treasure..."
【ONEPIECE】Ah!”
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell silent!
Everyone held their breath and stared at the only king on the high platform.
The man suddenly raised his head slightly and the corners of his mouth began to tremble.
The next second, he turned to laughing in the sky.
"Š¤Â¤Â¤Â¤Â…"
Thousands of spectators in the audience saw this scene and were shocked by its momentum.
Then, everyone saw the man on the execution platform suddenly stopped laughing and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Want my treasure?"
"I can give it all to you if you want..."
Hearing this, the audience in the audience swallowed their saliva secretly, with burning eyes, which contained uncontrollable excitement and ambition.
The two executioners were panicked and raised their long knives.
"Hey! Shut up!" The man was unmoved by the executioner's warning and shouted. "Go find it!" "I put all the treasures there!!!" As soon as he finished speaking, two long knives crossed and pierced his body. Blood flowed out and gathered into a pool. And under the high platform, after a moment of silence, it boiled and cheered loudly!!! Luffy's vision gradually blurred again and slowly fell into darkness. At the same time, in his mind. [Your understanding is heaven-defying. Through personal visualization and understanding, your spirit is improved. ] [Your spirit is improved, and your Conqueror's Haki is strengthened!] In the hazy vision, Luffy felt that his Conqueror's Haki seemed to have broken through some shackles. Then, prompts continued to come from his mind. [Your strength has broken through!] Sure enough!!!! Luffy said in his heart. Before, he was only a step away from breaking through to the Admiral level, and the most critical thing was that Conqueror's Haki was not strong enough.
After this experience, as if he had personally experienced Roger's execution, his Conqueror's had made a big step forward as he personally saw Roger's kingly posture.
Now, he has already possessed a trace of the true kingly posture, just like Roger who looked down on the world at the beginning.
"Hey! Straw Hat Boy! Come down quickly!"
"Did you hear that? Are you pretending to be deaf?"
In the haze, Luffy faintly heard the voice of the guard who had called him down before.
Although he had experienced an execution in his mind, the reality was only a moment.
Luffy slowly opened his eyes, and his vision became clear again.
The sky suddenly became dark and cloudy.
Whoosh whoosh...
Boom!
In an instant, the strong wind also raged with thunder.
The sky and the earth suddenly changed color, and the scene was like the end of the world.
Just as Luffy was about to leave, he suddenly saw a large number of Marines rushing in from both sides of the square, the number was almost staggering.
*......
Accompanied by the roar of a motorcycle, Colonel Smoker, a Marine with a cigar in his mouth and a slicked-back hair, rushed over.
Drifting in the middle of the passage opened by the Marines for evacuation, he stopped steadily in front of the execution platform where Luffy was standing.
The onlookers looked at this exaggerated scene with a confused look on their faces, not understanding what had happened to cause so many Marines to come out collectively.
Especially when they saw Smoker appear, many people were even more surprised.
Even Colonel Smoker, the super strong man who had never lost since he was stationed in Logue Town, the ability user of Logia Smoke Fruit, was alarmed.
Who on earth was so proud of himself?
...........
At this moment, a Marine who was responsible for evacuating the crowd suddenly shouted to the crowd.
"Get out of here!"
"We, the Marines, are going to capture the worst newcomer, Monkey D. Luffy, the straw hat boy with a bounty of 60 million berries."
"This pirate is very dangerous. All of you are irrelevant. Get out of here!!!"
As soon as these words came out, the square was in uproar.
Everyone looked at the man in the straw hat who was surrounded by the Marines and standing on the execution platform in disbelief.
The man lowered his head slightly, his hat brim covered his eyes, and the shadow cast on his face, looking extremely gloomy and terrifying.
"Is that the most evil newcomer that's been rumored everywhere recently, the Straw Hat Boy?"
"Sure enough, he's just like the rumors say, he looks like a devil who kills without blinking an eye and is extremely vicious.
"A super rookie pirate with a bounty of 60 million berries, I heard it's unprecedented!"
"It's really too scary, that Straw Hat Boy!"
Hearing the voices of exaggeration and shock about Luffy's reputation everywhere, Smoker couldn't help but frown.
He immediately looked at Luffy with an extremely unhappy look.
"You're playing tricks, watch me beat you out of your original form!"
Smoker bit his cigar and whispered to himself, then said to Luffy.
"Hey! Straw hat boy, come down and surrender quickly. In this case, I can spare your life."
After Smoker finished speaking, everyone in the audience stared directly at Luffy, the straw hat with his head slightly lowered on the execution platform.
Just like back then, thousands of viewers were waiting for Roger to answer that question.
Luffy slowly raised his head, and the shadow on his face gradually disappeared, revealing his confident and proud face with a faint smile, as if looking down at the world.
0.0
At this scene, the entire audience, including all Marines, were stunned.
At that moment, they seemed to see a king standing at the top, arrogant about everything.
Even Smoker was shocked.
He was present when Roger was executed.
And now the scene of Luffy looking up reminded him of Roger.
It was as if Luffy and Roger, who were standing on the execution platform at this moment, merged into one body.
For a time, everyone's impression of Luffy as a devil began to change, and they became like believers, looking up to God.
Under everyone's nervous gaze, the corners of Luffy's mouth began to move slightly.
Then, everyone in the audience heard it.
"Sorry! I have to conquer the Grand Line, so I don't have time to play house with you here."
Luffy's tone was calm and his attitude was easy-going, but the feeling when he said these words made everyone marvel at his unparalleled aura.
Like a king, looking down on the world.
Suddenly, everyone was shocked by Luffy's momentum and stood there blankly, looking up at him.
"What did you say?"
Smoker frowned, holding the cigar between his teeth, his eyes filled with anger.
He actually said that fighting him was just playing house?
How could Smoker endure this?
He stared hard at Luffy before he saw the other person speak again.
"I said......"
Crack!
Luffy was mid-sentence when a bolt of lightning suddenly exploded and fell from the black cloud.
Everyone stared blankly at the golden lightning, which was clearly aimed at Luffy, who was standing on the execution platform at the moment.
Suddenly, the whole audience screamed in shock.
"Hey! That lightning is going to hit Straw Hat!"
"Run away, you will die!"
"Lightning is about to strike you, Straw Hat, do you hear it?"
"Get out of there quickly!"
Perhaps they were shocked and infected by Luffy's aura just now. At this moment, countless people began to call to remind Luffy and let him escape quickly.
Smoker didn't care about the crowd's opinion of Luffy at this time, he just frowned and stared at Luffy closely.
I was wondering why Luffy heard the reminder but remained unmoved.
Were you frightened?
Or is he looking for death?
Smoker made a guess in his mind.
However, the next moment, he suddenly felt shocked.
His pupils trembled like an earthquake, and the cigar in his mouth fell to the ground because he opened his mouth wide.
His expression was extremely shocked and incredible.
All the people in the audience were extremely shocked at this moment, as if they had seen ghosts and gods.
Their expressions were shocked, their bodies were trembling, and their eyes contained extremely strong shock and disbelief.
At this moment, on the execution platform, Luffy was smiling and looking proud, looking down as if looking down at the world.
What shocked everyone in the audience and paid attention was Luffy's right hand raised at this moment.
Between his right hands, a golden lightning bolt was held tightly like a spear.
The wind was raging and dark clouds were pressing down on the city.
Thunder rolled from the sky, and the roar shook the heaven and the earth.
And it was in this doomsday-like scene.
On the execution platform, the man smiled, looked proud, and held lightning in his hand, like a king!
This shocking scene made everyone in the audience stunned.
Then, under the extremely shocked gaze of everyone.
Luffy looked at Smoker who was stagnant in place, and said in a voice as light as a feather.
"I said, you... are too weak]] Sidian".
