Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

"Ow~"

At the calm port of Twin Capes, a deafening sound like the roar of a dragon suddenly came.

Huge ripples instantly appeared in the sea, and waves were raised under the impact of the sound waves.

I saw Rab's huge eyeballs suddenly turning, focusing on Luffy.

Although as an animal, it does not have a brain as flexible as humans.

But it has been smart since childhood and has already been able to understand human language.

More importantly, it heard a familiar name in Luffy's mouth - [Brooke]!

All of a sudden!

The whole sea suddenly boiled like boiling hot water.

Labu turned its huge body, slowly retreated, focused all its attention on Luffy, and then let out a deafening cry again:

"Ouch——!!?"

at the same time.

Inside Rab's body, there is a huge space.

As the person in charge of the Twin Points Lighthouse, Kurokas suddenly stood up in surprise.

"Strange, the tranquilizer has worn off!?"

In order to see the Lombard Pirates, Rabu has been banging his head against the extremely solid red earth continent for decades, so that it has already been scarred.

In order to protect Rab, Kurokas had to move his home into Rab's body, and with his superb medical skills, he transformed Rab's body into a huge secret base.

Once Rab wants to hit the red earth continent, he will inject Rab with a special sedative in a specific room to force him to calm down.

Day after day, year after year.

This has already become a part of Kurokas' life.

It's just that today's Rab seems to be extra strong in his resistance to tranquilizers.

Kurokas trotted all the way, but when he came to the room where the sedative was injected, the violent tremor that should have occurred did not come for a long time.

"strangeness!?"

Confused, he scratched his peaked head and immediately walked out along the passage of the sedation room.

In order to better take care of Rab, Kurokas has built dozens of passages here. They are intricate and complicated. Only he knows where these passages will lead.

It can be said to be a complete nemesis of Sauron!

squeak~

With a sound of metal friction, Kurokas slowly pushed open the sealed gate behind Labu and stuck his head out.

The next second, he was surprised to see a young man wearing a straw hat sitting at the scar in the middle of Rab's forehead, talking and laughing with Rab.

Kurokas's eyes instantly focused on the straw hat, and his eyes suddenly stared:

"That hat, I don't remember..."

A flash of nostalgia suddenly flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, he walked out of the gate and yelled at Luffy:

"Hey! Boy, why did you come here!?"

"Um!?"

Hearing Kurokas's voice, Luffy turned his head in confusion, and immediately showed a puzzled look on his face:

"Uncle!? Who are you?"

Kurokas raised his eyebrows: "Before asking other people's names, it is the most basic courtesy to say your own name first, right?"

"Ah! That's right, my name is Monkey D..."

Luffy was stunned for a moment, but just when he was about to say his name, he heard Kurokas suddenly speak, as if rushing to answer a question:

"I'm Kurokas, the lighthouse keeper of Twin Points!"

"........."

The scene fell silent instantly.

After a while.

Luffy suddenly grinned: "Uncle, you are so funny!"

"……Ah."

Kurokas raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "I haven't met such an interesting young man like you for a long time."

"So... why are you here!?" He repeated the original question again.

"Ah..." Luffy laughed deeply and said, "I am inviting this whale to be our partner!"

"Now it seems that I should have succeeded!"

"Right, Rab!?"

Luffy happily patted Rab on the head.

And Rab immediately let out a loud roar and responded to Luffy.

But amidst Rab's deafening screams, Kurokas's face changed from calm at the beginning, to stunned, and finally to his mouth wide open, showing an expression of incredible shock.

……

……

Half an hour later, on the deck of the Mellie.

Kurokas picked up the wine glass in front of him and looked at his old reflection in the glass, unable to let go for a long time.

"So this is ah."

He suddenly sighed: "I thought... the Lombard Pirates had escaped from the Grand Line!"

"It seems I wrongly blamed them!"

After the words fell, he slowly turned his head to look at the huge lab next to the Meili, with tears flashing in his eyes:

"This is really great, Rab!"

"you are right!"

"It turns out they have never forgotten you~ And now, you also have the opportunity to meet them!!!"

"That's great……!"

Kurokas murmured in his mouth, immediately drank the wine in the glass, and then stood up.

He said solemnly to the Straw Hats:

"Since Rab has agreed to go on a adventure with you, then I have no reason to stop him!"

"However, Labu is no ordinary sea beast!"

"If I find out that you are not good to it, I will hunt you down to the end even if I travel to the ends of the earth!"

At this moment, Kurokas was like an old father who was about to hand over his daughter to a brat, and his eyes became inexplicably wet.

Luffy, who was playing the role of a brat, showed a smile as bright as the sun at this moment, put his hand on the straw hat, and made a gesture as if he was swearing:

"Hehe, don't worry, uncle!"

"We will definitely take good care of Rab!"

As the vice-captain, Chihong also stood up with a smile on her face, poured a full glass of wine for him and promised:

"Senior Kurokas, you don't have to worry about Rab!"

"And I think... you won't be apart for too long!"

"Because it won't be long before our captain will lead us to find [ONE·PIECE] and become the freest existence on the sea in this era just like you did back then!!!"

"Oh?"

After hearing this, a look of surprise suddenly flashed in Kurokas's eyes, and he said to Chihong in surprise:

"you know me?"

"Of course!" Chi Hong smiled slightly, picked up his wine glass and toasted.

"Kulokas, the exclusive ship doctor of the Pirate King Roger Pirates, the wheels of time are not yet fast enough to wipe you all out of history."

"What!!!?"
