Chapter 397 The closest time to One Piece

"What? You haven't heard of him?" Rayleigh said, "About 10 years ago, I met him unexpectedly on this island. At that time, his straw hat and left hand were gone."

"Hmm..." Luffy covered his mouth full of food with his hand.

"When I asked him the reason, he happily told me about you." Rayleigh said, "Since then, I have been eager to meet you, Monkey D. Luffy..."

"Hahaha, Shanks." Luffy happily pulled the straw hat on his head.

"Since Shanks didn't tell you, I can't nag you anymore." Rayleigh said, "Anyway, now that you're here, he must be waiting anxiously in the New World."

"Really? Yeah." Luffy smiled, "I want to meet him too."

"Your mask, can you tell me the story behind it?" Rayleigh pointed at the mask hanging next to Luffy's neck and said, "I can tell that you love it as much as you love your straw hat."

"This?" Luffy touched the wooden mask on his shoulder. "This is a relic left by a man named Afei who sacrificed himself when I was about to die in battle."

"A Fei? He should be your important partner." Rayleigh said.

"Yes and no, he did not join us. At first, he was only under Wang Hao's order to assist me. He could have escaped on his own." Luffy touched his mask and was silent for a moment, then said, "It's all my fault for being too weak. In my heart, he is my partner."

"Let unhappy things go, just keep them in mind." Rayleigh saw that Luffy was in a bad mood, so he stood up and changed the subject, "Okay, now let's get back to the point. You want me to coat you, right? I should do my job."

"Come to think of it, coating is really expensive." Xiao Ba said while lying on the bed.

"Xiao Ba, it's okay." Rayleigh said, "I won't charge money from your friends."

"That's great, thank you, Rayleigh." Xiao Ba thanked him.

"Wow." Nami and Usopp looked surprised.

"I don't know what's going on, but it's great that it's free," Usopp shouted.

"Thank you so much, you are so generous." Sanji said, "You are such a rich man."

"This can save a lot of money." Nami said.

"Mr. Rayleigh." Robin suddenly stood up and called out.

"What?" Rayleigh asked.

"I have a question, what does 'D' mean?" Robin asked, "I saw Roger's name engraved in ancient characters in the history book of Sky Island. Why did he use that kind of characters?"

"Do you know what happened in the world during the 900 years of blank time starting 100 years ago?" Robin asked.

A gust of wind blew, and the clouds in the sky blocked the sun. The tavern was shrouded in shadow, and Rayleigh's face darkened.

"Yes, we know." Rayleigh said calmly, "We know all the history. But Miss, don't be too anxious, use your own ship to get closer to the truth step by step. Maybe we were a little too hasty after the Erhara incident. Even if I tell you all the history now, you are powerless with your current strength."

"After traveling around the world, the answers you get will definitely be the same as ours. Even so, if you still want to know, I will tell you everything in the world now."

Hearing this, Robin closed his eyes and remained silent for a moment. The clouds were blown away by the wind, and the sunlight shone on Robin's face.

"No, thanks," said Robin. "I want to continue my journey."

"You will know everything sooner or later." Rayleigh said meaningfully, "I am also deeply saddened by what happened in your hometown of Hala, but Roger can't decipher those words. We are pirates and cannot compare with the genius Kloba and O'Hara's scholars. That guy just heard the voice of all things, that's all."

"What? Is this okay? Robin?" Usopp pointed at Rayleigh and shouted, "Isn't this a missed opportunity?"

After saying that, Usopp hurriedly asked Rayleigh.

"Well, uncle, I have a question too." Usopp raised his hand and said, "Just one question, the great secret treasure One Piece, really, at the end..."

"Usopp~!" Luffy suddenly shouted loudly.

Usopp was startled and fell to the ground, looking at Luffy who was staring at him in horror.

"I don't want to know where the treasure is!" Luffy said, "I don't want to know whether there is a treasure or not! Although we don't know anything, we all risk our lives to go out to sea. If I hear anything from this uncle, I will stop being a pirate! I don't want to experience boring adventures!"

"Well, the Naruto Counterattack episode is out." Seeing the reward, Wang Hao was numb.

"I know, I know." Usopp explained hurriedly, "I just let it slip by accident, and I don't want to know. Oh, I have a disease that will kill me if I know the news about One Piece. It can be fatal. Hey, uncle, don't say anything."

"Hehehe." Xia Qi watched and laughed.

"Can you do it?" Rayleigh asked, "The Grand Line is far beyond your imagination, and the enemy is also very powerful. Can you rule this sea area?"

Luffy heard this and looked at Rayleigh.

"I never thought about ruling." Luffy suddenly said with a smile, "The freest one on this sea is the Pirate King."

"Huh?" Rayleigh was stunned when he heard that and looked at Luffy.

Luffy showed a sunny and cheerful smile.

"I see." Rayleigh smiled.

"Little Monkie is indeed my idol," said Xia Qi.

"The ship is parked at GR 41, right?" Rayleigh walked out. "I'll go check it out first. What about you guys? The admiral may have arrived on the island."

"It will cause trouble for you if we stay here." Nami stood up and said, "Then where should we go? Let's go shopping."

"Are you crazy?" Usopp heard this, jumped up and roared at Nami, "They are chasing us now, we should hide, you idiot."

"Yes, if they stay with us, there might be pursuers following us again." Franky said, "In order to complete the coating smoothly, it is better for us to hide in the town."

"Then let's split up into several groups and gather there after the coating is completed." said Zoro.

"You can actually say that we can separate and then reunite." Sanji said to Zoro in a sarcastic tone.

"Shaqi, don't you have that?" Reilly turned around and said to Shaqi.

"Yes, there is one more." Xia Qi said.

Soon, Rayleigh prepared his tools and stood in front of the tavern with everyone.

"Is it a life card?" Nami said as she looked at what Shaqi gave to Rayleigh.

"It would be easier for you to tell me if you knew that," Rayleigh said. "I am also a wanted man. I want to move your ship from GR-41 to another place for work. The coating will take three days to complete."

"Ah? It will take three days to complete." Luffy was shocked.

"This is a life-threatening job. Three days is the fastest possible," Rayleigh said.

"In this case, we will have to flee for three days. That's scary," said Brooke.

"Let's meet again in the evening three days from now." Rayleigh said, "I don't know what date I will be there, but I will complete the coating at the place indicated by the life card and wait for you. You can go buy some things you need to go to Fishman Island."

"Luffy, thank you so much." said Camie.

"Thank you so much," Papagu echoed with tears in his eyes.

"I'm so sorry for causing so much trouble." Xiao Ba said, "Thank you so much, we will take you to Fishman Island. Don't worry, be careful of the navy in the next three days."

"Xiao Ba, you must rest well for these three days." Chopper instructed.

"See you in three days." Xia Qi said, "I will see you off."

"Goodbye, Auntie, hehe." Luffy said, "The opponent is the admiral, you better not die."

"What are you talking about, you bastard?" Usopp shouted.

"Three days?" Franky said.

"Let's go to the amusement park." Luffy shouted.
