Chapter 7 The Beginning of the Great Route
Just when Rogge Town was already in an uproar. net
On the streets of Rogge Town, a figure bathed in the pouring rain and walked like a ghost.
"Pirates? That's not bad."
At the same time, Nami and Usopp carried the purchased goods together and finally ran to the side of the Golden Mellie.
At this time, the weather was already blowing with strong winds and pouring rain. Beside the Golden Merry, Mochi, the trainer of the Bucky Pirates, was here with his lion.
"Damn it! Failed again, matches can't work. It happened to rain heavily at this time." Mochi said very distressed.
The match in his hand was completely soaked and unusable.
The lion on the side was still roaring dissatisfiedly. It wanted to eat very much.
Nami and Usopp arrived and were shocked to find Mochi and the lion.
Nami saw Mochi next to the Merry and said: "Mochi, a member of the Bucky Pirates. He is actually here."
"Leave it to me." Usopp took out the slingshot.
"Must-kill metal star!"
The metal ball fired by Usopp hit Mochi in the back of the head.
After Mochi was hit, he immediately lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
"Good job, Usopp!" Nami immediately praised.
"Ah" but the expressions on their faces immediately froze.
Mochi's lion looked at the two of them, his eyes full of desire for prey, and his saliva was drooling.
"I haven't dealt with lions here yet"
In a panic, Usopp could only take out a fresh egg.
"Egg Star!" A fresh egg was shot out by Usopp.
In haste, the egg shot onto the ground next to the lion.
The hungry lion smelled the egg and quickly lay down and licked the broken egg happily with his tongue.
"Okay, get on the boat now." Nami said.
Nami and Usopp quickly boarded the Golden Merry together.
Luffy, Rogge, Zoro and Sanji, who were quickly breaking out of the encirclement, ran non-stop through the streets of Rogge Town.
"Hurry up. The navy behind them is really chasing after them. I really want to stop fighting with them." Luffy said as he ran.
"Leave this to me." Rogge said.
Rogge turned around and pointed his sleeve towards the middle of the house on the street.
Under Rogge's control, the vine whip quickly entangled between the two houses, quickly forming a large net that was not too dense but could block the opponent.
"This can delay them for some time." Rogge said after using the vine whip.
Without Rogge's fruit ability, the vine whip will last for a while before returning to its original state.
But it was enough to block the large number of naval soldiers chasing after him.
And now it's raining heavily in the sky, so the navy's firearms are damp and unable to shoot.
"Roger, your plants are very interesting." Luffy said to Rogge full of curiosity.
"This is a plant modified by Devil Fruit power, and it has very special abilities." Rogge said.
"So you are also a fruit user." Luffy said with sudden realization.
"Well, I am a plant fruit user. I can control plant growth and transform plants," Rogge said.
"Plant fruit?" Luffy, Zoro and Sanji all said strangely.
Luffy looked at Rogge and said, "What a rare fruit. Then you are considered a vegetable. I am a person with the ability of the rubber fruit, so I am considered a rubber man."
Luffy's eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Your ability is really interesting, so I want to recruit you even more."
Sanji ran aside and said: "You have a very rare ability and can serve as a gardener on the ship. By the way, I need a lot of ingredients, you can help make them grow."
Rogge saw that Luffy and the others were already interested in getting him to join the gang, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.
"Ah?" Zoro suddenly saw a figure that he really didn't want to see blocking the way ahead.
A short-haired girl holding a samurai sword stood in front of him, it was Dasqi.
"Wow, who is this beauty?" Sanji's eyes were suddenly filled with admiration.
Zoro gritted his teeth when he saw it.
"Roronoa Zoro!"
Dasqi suddenly shouted loudly.
"I didn't expect that you are Roronoa, and you are also a pirate. I must take back the Wado Yijimon in your hand. A villain like you must not be equipped with such a famous sword!"
"Zoron, what did you do to that girl?" Sanji shouted to Zoro.
Zoro rushed in front of Dusky and said, "I didn't expect you to be a marine."
The Hedao Yiziwen in his hand has been pulled out, and he is facing off against Dasqi's Jiyu.
"This guy actually attacked a lady." Sanji was so angry that he wanted to hold Zoro back.
"This is a matter between me and Roronoa, please don't interfere with others." Dusky said while fighting Zoro.
"Let's go." Zoro said while waving his katana.
Luffy, Roger, and Sanji quickly continued on their way.
"Okay, you forced me. I'm going to show my true skills." Zoro said.
"It's what you asked for, come on." Dasqi said.
Luffy, Rogge and Sanji only heard the sound of samurai swords clashing behind them, which continued to fade away.
After running for a while, there was a mechanical sound in front of me.
"Huh?" Luffy said.
"What is that?" Sanji asked when he saw it.
In the midst of the smoke, a heavy motorcycle making a loud noise rushed towards the three people driven by Colonel Smoker.
Smoker uses his smoky feet to drive the heavy Biaro motorcycle.
"Straw Hat Luffy, don't even try to escape here!"
Smoker suddenly turned the heavy motorcycle sideways and got off the car.
They were about to arrive at the port, but the way ahead was blocked by this burly and scary man.
Smoker looked at the three of them with majestic eyes and said: "I swear here in the name of Captain of the Navy Headquarters and Smoker Hunter. I will not let you leave here alone."
Rogge could clearly feel the overwhelming momentum coming from Smoker at this moment.
"Hey, we are going to the Grand Line. Please don't block the way." Luffy said.
Smoker looked at the straw hat boy who was not afraid of tigers as a newborn, and said: "Then defeat me first."
"Rubber pistol!" Luffy's hand quickly stretched out and punched Smoker's body.
But after being hit, it was as if it had passed through the body, and the parts of Smoker's body turned into smoke.
"It's my turn!" Smoker's hands quickly turned into smoke, turning into two clouds of smoke and grabbing at Luffy. net
Luffy's body was quickly surrounded by smoke, and then he was grabbed hard.
"Ah!" Luffy shouted in pain.
Sanji was also anxious and quickly kicked Smoker in the head.
"What?" Smoker's head turned into smoke.
"Don't make trouble, little guy. White fist!" Smoker hit Sanji with one hand and knocked Sanji away.
Rogge aimed the flaming sunflower on his shoulder at Smoker. Now the flaming sunflower gathered energy to launch a super powerful attack on Smoker.
Flames still have some restraint on smoke.
"Sunshine and flames!"
A straight line of flame shot toward Smoker.
Smoker's body quickly turned into smoke after being hit, and then Luffy was caught and thrown away.
Before Rogge could continue to prepare for the attack, his body was suddenly caught.
After the smoke disappeared, Smoker took shape behind him again.
"Is this what you rely on to attack?" Smoker grabbed the flaming sunflower on Rogge's shoulder and crushed it.
The other hand lifted Roger up.
Smoker and Rogge looked at each other.
Rogge had to admit in his heart that the strong man in front of him possessed an irresistible majesty.
"Your name seems to be Rogge, and you are from the orphanage, right?" Smoker asked.
"Then why did you help the pirates?" Smoker asked.
"I just want to." Rogge said.
Smoker threw Rogge away.
"I have no time to care about you." Smoker immediately turned his attention to Luffy.
"Rubber rubber, rocket launcher!"
At this time, Luffy hit Smoker's body with both arms.
Similarly, Smoker turned into smoke and quickly flew behind Luffy and grabbed him.
Luffy was pushed hard to the ground.
When Rogge saw this, he immediately swung the vine whip in his sleeve at Luffy. Wanted to drag him away.
"Don't even think about it!" Smoker grabbed Luffy tightly, and Luffy's body was stretched out by the rubber.
But Rogge tried his best to suck the milk, but Smoker didn't move at all.
"You and Luffy are both going to end up here." Smoker prepared to continue attacking.
Suddenly, when everyone present was in disbelief, a man in a cloak grabbed Smoker's wrist and forced him to let go of Luffy.
Luffy was dragged away by Roger.
"Is it you?" Smoker was shocked when he saw the face of the cloaked man.
"The government wants your head all the time," Smoker said.
The cloaked man remained silent, but turned his head to Rogge and Luffy.
"Those who have dreams also have their friends. In the end, they will all be on a long journey, rain or shine. But I would like to thank you on behalf of Luffy."
Rogge looked at this man. This man was the revolutionary Long.
The dragon turned his gaze to the sky.
"The world will slowly wait for our answers."
Then an astonishing gust of wind blew, blowing almost across the entire town of Rogge.
Rogue, Luffy, Sanji and others were all blown away.
Even the Golden Merry on the beach was affected. The pirate ship that was already shaking in the storm became even more violent.
"What's going on? How come there is such a huge wind." Usopp asked in surprise.
After the strong wind caused by the tornado, everything returned to an ordinary storm.
At this time, Roger, Luffy, Sanji and Zoro got up from the ground and found that they were already at the port.
"What's going on?" Zoro looked around.
Sanji was also sharp-eyed and directly saw the Merry, which had been away from the coast for a while.
"Look, our ship," Sanji said.
Luffy was also happy to see the Merry, and then looked at Roger beside him.
"Roger, are you willing to go to sea with us?" Luffy asked solemnly.
"Anyway, if you help us, that monster will definitely not let you go." Zoro said.
"Come with us, you can help me get some ingredients." Sanji said.
Rogge saw that Luffy and the others had invited him like this, and it was exactly what he wanted.
"Okay, everyone. Let's go." Rogge said.
Hearing this, Luffy looked happy and said, "Okay, let's go. Let's go to the Grand Line together."
Luffy then ran to a nearby wooden pole, where he began to stretch his body.
"I have a bad feeling," Sanji said.
Luffy, who was stretched to an exaggerated degree, bounced towards Rogge, Sanji and Zoro.
"Wow!"
Amidst the screams of the four people, they flew towards the Merry together.
It finally hit the Merry's sail and fell to the deck.
Nami saw the four people back on the boat and said, "Everyone is back, and we have an extra partner."
Usopp also saw Rogge and said, "It seems to be the man fighting on the top of the building in the square."
"Wow, I'm finally back." Luffy raised his hands and cheered.
"This is our new partner, named Rogge." Luffy introduced.
Rogge stood up from the deck and said politely to Nami and Usopp: "My name is Rogge. It's our first time meeting you. Please take care of me."
"Well hello," Nami said.
"I have a new partner. Well, I am a brave sea warrior. Every time the Straw Hat Pirates defeat powerful enemies under my wise command. Since you are here, tell me what your abilities are." Uso Pu said.
"I'm good at controlling plants, so I can be considered a horticulturist for the time being," Rogge said.
Then Roger saw three orange trees on the Merry.
"Let me use these three orange trees as a demonstration." Rogge said.
Nami looked at the orange trees and said, "Okay, don't damage them if they're not enough."
Rogge arrived at one of the orange trees and used the plant fruit ability.
This orange tree had been picked before, and what was left were some very green, unripe oranges.
Roger's hands worked on the orange tree for a while, and the unripe oranges quickly turned from green to orange.
Even some of the locations that had been picked blossomed again and grew oranges.
Nami had already walked to Rogge's side and looked at these oranges in surprise.
"It's amazing," Nami said.
Usopp also walked up to Rogge, patted Rogge's shoulder nonchalantly and said, "Well done, this is of great use on the ship. Okay, Rogge. I am a brave sea warrior. I ask you to stay in Usopp's name."
"Congratulations, Rogge." Luffy's voice suddenly sounded.
"From today on, you will be a member of the Straw Hat Pirates." Luffy and Rogge looked directly at each other and said solemnly.
"Well, since the captain said so, you can go on adventures with everyone with peace of mind," Zoro said.
"Don't forget to grow more of the ingredients I choose," Sanji said.
"Well, there is one more person. He is also a gardener, which is good." Nami said.
"Haha, Usopp has one more friend." Usopp said boldly.
Rogge looked at the members of the pirate group and walked among them.
"From now on, Rogge will share hardships with everyone and move forward into the distance!" Rogge said firmly.
At the same time, on the top of the house in the port of Rogge Town, the dragon wore a cloak and watched the journey of the Merry in the wind and rain.
"Go for it if that's the way you are."
Smoker was on the ground not far away, watching the Merry's journey.
"Long, why do you want to help them!" Smoker said.
The dragon did not look at him and continued to watch the Merry sail away.
"What can be done to stop a group of people chasing their dreams from setting sail!"
After Long said these words, his figure disappeared like a ghost.
Smoker looked at the sea again.
"Prepare my ships to pursue them. Enter the Grand Line!" Smoker ordered.
Dasqi on the side quickly said: "I want to go too! Sir, I want to hunt down the pirate hunter Roronoa."
"But Colonel Smoker, you are the commander stationed here," a naval soldier said quickly.
"Just tell them, stop dictating to me!" Smoker said without any doubt.
Bucky, Arrita and others who had been defeated by Luffy and Rogge before also took advantage of the chaos and fled to the ship near the seaside.
"What? Captain Bucky. Enter the Grand Line?"
Bucky looked sinister and said, "Yes, in order to eliminate the rubber man and the boy who can use plants to attack, we have to enter the nostalgic great route."
The Golden Melly, which was sailing westward, was bumping in a violent storm.
"What's going on?" Usopp asked.
There was a lighthouse faintly ahead, emitting a bright light.
Nami walked to the bow of the ship and looked at the light and the lighthouse.
"That is the navigation light, the entrance to the great route."
Everyone looked at each other, and a great legend was about to begin.
Sanji brought a wooden barrel and said, "Okay, let's have a ceremony of sailing into the Grand Line. It can also be regarded as a welcome ceremony for Rogge."
Sanji was the first to put his feet on the barrel and said: "I want to find the blue sea!"
Luffy put his feet on the barrel and said, "I want to become the Pirate King!"
Sauron put his feet on the barrel and said, "I want to become the world's best swordsman!"
Nami also put her feet on the barrel and said, "I want to draw all the world maps!"
Usopp emotionally put his feet on the barrel and said, "I want to become a brave sea warrior!"
There are already five people's feet on the barrel.
"I."
Rogge also put his feet on the barrel and said, "I'm going to experience a great adventure!"
Sanji took the barrel away, pointed it in the direction of the Grand Line, and kicked it hard.
"Let's go!!! Go to the Grand Line!!!"
