Chapter 308 The Straw Hat Pirates Reappear

"Wow!!"

"This Water Seven is quite luxurious! It's completely different from the towns on the islands we visited before!"

A boy wearing a straw hat couldn't help but speak up as he looked at the buildings of Water Seven around him.

His pupils were filled with surprise.

His eyes kept darting around, and to be honest, this was absolutely the most luxurious place he had ever been to, bar none.

And this straw-hatted boy is none other than Luffy.

The people around him were obviously members of the Straw Hat Pirates.

To be fair, their growth trajectory is quite similar to that of Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates in the original work; they are remarkably alike.

The speed at which his strength has increased... is also a bit outrageous!

While it's not as exaggerated as Luffy and his crew in the original work, it's not much different.

If Kyle were here, he would be absolutely shocked to sense their presence, because based on his first encounter with Luffy and the others, their talent shouldn't allow them to improve their strength so quickly.

"This is the Water City!"

"It's located in the area of ​​the world's largest shipyard, and it has been cooperating with the Navy Headquarters for many years, receiving support from the Navy!"

"Its foreign trade is incredibly developed, making it a veritable commercial hub; it's no wonder it's so luxurious!"

Nami, with her orange hair, spoke first, then looked at Luffy with a hint of warning:

"Luffy, you idiot, let me tell you something first!"

"Keep a low profile here and don't cause any trouble!"

"Since there's a sea train directly connecting this place to the Navy Headquarters, quite a few Navy personnel come here. You better keep a low profile!"

"Stop shouting things like 'I'm going to become the Pirate King' outside. It's one thing to shout it elsewhere, but keep it to yourself here!"

"Otherwise, it would be troublesome if we attracted the navy!"

"That's right, that's right, Luffy, keep a low profile. I don't want to be chased by the Navy again!"

After Nami finished speaking, Usopp, who was standing next to her, immediately nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice.

He shared Nami's thoughts, fearing that his foolish captain might do something bad.

He didn't want to be chased by the Navy. It was one thing if the Navy was weak, but if they were strong, he might not be able to beat them and end up in jail.

He's still a coward.

"Okay, okay, I know!"

"I'm not really stupid, I definitely know when I can say it and when I can't!"

Luffy waved his hand dismissively, then his gaze suddenly fell on something, his eyes immediately turned into fleshy shapes, and saliva welled up in his mouth.

He quickly wiped his mouth and then pointed loudly in a certain direction, shouting:

"I want to eat that!!"

Then he ran straight ahead, leaving everyone with only his back view.

"You idiot, wait..."

Sanji instinctively opened his mouth, but stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence.

Because Luffy had already run more than ten meters away and showed no intention of listening to him at all.

"That idiot!!"

A few veins popped out on Sanji's forehead.

The others looked at their foolish captain with a helpless expression.

"Hopefully that guy really means what he says. He's a captain who never lets you have your way!"

Zhuo Luo sighed softly.

Upon hearing this, the others nodded in deep agreement, and then said in unison:

"really!!"

Suddenly, Nami seemed to realize something, turned to look in Zoro's direction, and spoke before even turning her head:

"By the way, Zoro, don't you want to be alone..."

???

!!!

Nami's pupils suddenly widened.

All she could see in the direction she looked was empty air; there was no sign of Zoro at all.

no?!!

Weren't you just complaining together here? How come you've disappeared in the blink of an eye?!

Thinking of this, the veins on Nami's forehead bulged, and her fists clenched so tightly that the sound of her knuckles rubbing together was clearly audible.

"Another idiot!!"

"Can't there be a normal person on this ship?"

"Nami-san, I'm normal!!"

Sanji immediately replied, his eyes also shining with love as he stared at Nami.

"Miss Nami, don't worry, I won't be like those two idiots. I'm your most loyal knight. As long as I'm by your side, don't panic even if those two idiots are gone!!"

Sanji's voice is gentle, making him sound incredibly gentlemanly.

Upon hearing this, Nami finally smiled and looked at Sanji with admiration.

"You're still the most reliable one, Sanji!!"

"Of course, protecting Nami-san is my duty and my honor!!"

"That's wonderful! Sanji, would you like to come with me for a look around?"

"As long as we keep a low profile and treat ourselves like ordinary people, Water Seven is actually quite friendly. I wanted to come and see the city after seeing information about it in the newspaper!"

"We've finally arrived here, we absolutely have to explore this place properly!!"

Upon hearing this, Sanji immediately walked up to Nami, bowing politely as if to invite her:

"Miss Nami, let's go~"

"Arigato, Sanji!!"

Nami gave Sanji a sweet smile, and then walked forward.

Sanji, on the other hand, kept twisting his body in place.

"Nami-san is so beautiful and so gentle!!"

"Wait for me, Miss Nami, your knight has arrived~"

Sanji immediately chased after Nami, leaving Usopp standing there bewildered in the wind.

He glanced around and realized that none of his companions were still there.

Are you sure there's one other person who is normal?

Usopp rubbed his forehead, shook his head helplessly, and then looked at the surrounding buildings with excitement in his eyes.

The Water City truly lives up to its name!

He also wants to explore the surrounding area!

Meanwhile, in a hotel in Water Seven.

Several boys dressed in naval uniforms were gathered together.

"Why are there so few pirates with any real strength on the Grand Line lately?"

"This is so boring!!"
