No...
It's not about taking sides...
But you must stand with the victors!
If the World Government and Navy expel the Konoha Pirates and end this terrifying hunting game, then they would certainly be obedient as the Seven Warlords of the Sea; if the World Government and Navy are defeated, these guys may have ambitions for the legendary ancient weapons...
In comparison to these two sinister characters, the Straw Hat Pirates are clearly not interested in this mess; not everyone is interested in slaughter...
"The Heavenly Celestial Dragons are the masters of the Navy..."
Nico Robin looked at Akihara Kagura, who still sat calmly, and asked in a deep voice, "As a part of the Navy, aren't you going to stop them?"
"They are very strong..."
Akihara Kagura slowly shook his head and said seriously, "What I need to do is wait for Marshal Sengoku and the two Admirals to arrive..."
"!!!"
Nico Robin's eyes tightened!
This Sky Island...
Is it about to become a battleground for the Konoha Pirates and Navy Admirals?
"Last time..."
Nico Robin recalled the conclusion of the Alabasta incident: "I heard that pirate crew was repelled by the Navy Admiral and two Admirals..."
"..."
Akihara Kagura just shook his head again without responding.
This Navy must be waiting for the great battle of the hunting game, while the Straw Hat Pirates have no interest in waiting here; they plan to explore above the Sky Island.
Nami, Chopper, and Usopp, those cowardly companions, are certainly too scared to go, but Nami remembered that this Sky Island used to be the Golden City Shandora...
However...
They still need to get permission from the Konoha Pirates.
Nico Robin, who loves history, took the initiative to negotiate with the Konoha Pirates, hoping to conduct archaeological research on the Sky Island.
"Feel free."
The Konoha Pirates raised no objections and opened the door widely for them, just registering them all as hunter participants in the hunting game.
"Go fetch all the gold!"
Nami was overjoyed when she learned they could explore freely on the Sky Island and immediately turned back with a ferocious look at her companions on the ship.
"What a greedy woman..."
Zoro sighed and could only disembark helplessly.
"You don't realize the value of resources until you manage a household..."
Sanji, with a cigarette in his mouth, scolded Zoro; as the one responsible for procuring supplies, he's well aware of how tight the ship's economy is: "Without Miss Nami, we would have gone bankrupt long ago!"
"Let's go, let's go!"
Straw Hat Luffy didn't care and suddenly stretched his rubber arm, grabbed a thick branch, and his body flew straight into the forest of the Sky Island!
This is the adventure he desires!
To find the lost Golden City in the wondrous places on the sea and uncover the gold lost in history; that's the pirate adventure story!
"The Navy can also participate in this game."
Red Sand Sasori looked at the figures of two Navy members on the Golden Merry, his gaze flickered for a moment, and he spoke coldly: "As long as you don't break the game's rules, everyone can participate in this game. You can attack hunters freely, and we won't stop the hunters from fighting each other..."
"Of course."
"Participating Navy, don't forget one thing..."
"Our Vice Captain will join as a hunter in the hunting game in a month. He will attack hunters as he likes, and the Navy is most likely to be attacked by him..."
"..."
Everyone fell silent.
This hunting game doesn't seem safe!
Are the Konoha Pirates trying to get the Navy and pirates to kill each other?
Wrong...
The Konoha Pirates must have absolute strength, believing the Navy cannot overturn their rules and will only act under their regulations?
"Do you want to participate in this hunting game as the Navy..."
Red Sand Sasori focused on Akihara Kagura and Karin, the two Navy members, slowly raising his hand: "Or do you want to attack us pirates in the name of Navy justice?"
"..."
Akihara Kagura fell silent.
A bolt of lightning appeared in Akihara Kagura's hand, and his body was instantly enveloped in lightning, which flickered around him!
"Hmm? Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability!"
Donflamingo was the first to determine the opponent's fruit ability!
Even though Donflamingo thought his String-String Fruit was the most suitable ability for himself, it didn't prevent him from coveting this Rumble-Rumble Fruit!
"Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability user..."
Blackbeard Teach's eyes lit up, and a glimmer of greed flashed in his eyes!
Even though he had already selected his preferred fruit, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit was undoubtedly one of the abilities he greatly desired, something he could give to others if he didn't use it himself!
The power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit...
It's a power that can be compared to the fruit abilities of the Three Great Admirals of the Navy Headquarters!
Besides them, people worldwide watching the broadcast quickly learned that the Navy had gained a Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit user, meaning the individual would not be a weakling in the future!
Logia-types may not be the strongest...
However, there are absolutely no weaklings among Logia-type ability users!
Just the characteristic of being immune to ordinary physical attacks is enough to render most ordinary pirates powerless against them...
"Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability, is it?"
Red Sand Sasori looked at the lightning revolving around the Navy Lieutenant, speaking indifferently: "But even as the so-called strongest Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability user, all you've gained is the speed to escape from our grasp..."
