Chapter 74 The Grand Route(1/2)
Chapter 74 The Great Route
If the four sea areas are like gentle winds, then as the place that all pirates yearn for, the Grand Line is like pouring mountain torrents.
Because Amber didn't take Nisaya with her, the journey that originally only took about a month ended up taking three months.
During this period, supplies were in short supply several times, and if we hadn't happened to encounter a few enthusiastic pirate ships, the delay might have been even longer.
By the time they finally arrived in Alabasta, everyone on the ship, except Amber, was already exhausted.
In this case, it would be irresponsible to take them with you.
So Amber found a nearby naval base and prepared to relocate the people there.
Originally the base commander was unwilling, but under his iron fist persuasion, he had to hold his nose and agree.
Naturally, there will be complaints and the like during this period.
So Amber very considerately called Zhan Guo's office and asked the other party to complain in person.
The base commander, who was still unconvinced at first, was speechless for a moment, and his attitude also changed 180 degrees.
He even extended a warm invitation to stay a few more days.
Amber was too lazy to pay attention to this guy and embarked on the road to the rainy land alone.
This made a group of young sailors who came out of Flo Base feel very guilty, and they made up their minds to train harder after going back.
Ten days later.
Rapeseed fields in port cities.
"Colonel Smoker, I...I saw that guy named Ace!!"
Dasqi panted and found Smoker who was eating, "He is in a restaurant on Third Street."
"Walk."
After finishing everything on the plate, Smoker stood up suddenly and strode outside.
Although his main target this time is Luffy, there is no reason to avoid Ace, the pirate who once humiliated him.
Even if the other party has joined the Whitebeard Pirates and became the captain of the second team, as a navy, this is no reason to back down.
Ten minutes later.
Bang!
Smoker, who was confronting Ace, was knocked out. When he returned to the hotel, he happened to see the Straw Hat kid eating havoc.
So a good chase drama was staged.
The first one running was Luffy, followed by Smoker, and finally Ace.
While running, everyone from the Straw Hats gathered one after another.
"Asshole! Don't run!"
Smoker was so impatient that he directly used his fruit ability.
Smoke fist!
The fist with a white tail hit Luffy at the front. Just when he was about to hit him, a ball of fire interrupted Smoker's attack.
"Luffy!"
Ace finally arrived.
"Ace!!"
Luffy was so happy that he didn't see any passersby in front of him.
Bang!
The huge repulsive force caused him to fly out and roll on the ground several times before he stopped.
Shaking his head, Luffy was a little confused, and then his vision went dark. The passerby he had just hit had already arrived in front of him before he knew it.
"Pirates..."
The deep voice carries a heavy power.
"Is it you?!"
When Ace, who was originally calm and calm, saw Amber, his expression immediately became twisted, "I didn't expect to meet you here!"
"Amber!"
Smoker stopped, his eyes a little complicated, and the navy following him also stopped.
As former colleagues, they had paid more or less attention to Amber's affairs. At this moment, in addition to being shocked, they felt the same emotions as Smoker.
"Who...who is this guy?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Nami asked in a low voice with some fear.
The others shook their heads, saying they didn't know.
At this moment, Weiwei's trembling voice said, "I might know, if he is really that Amber."
"Um?"
Looking at the curious eyes, she said fearfully: "He is known as the new generation monster of the Navy, Blood Blade Amber of the West Sea. Rumor has it that no pirate can escape from him alive."
Upon hearing this, others immediately became wary.
"I'm sorry..."
Luffy stood up carelessly and dusted himself off, "I didn't see you just now."
"Oh."
In the absence of conflict, Amber didn't want to take action against this guy, not only because of the relationship behind him, but more importantly, there was no innocent blood on Luffy's hands.
The same factors went into letting Ace go in the first place.
"Smog, long time no see."
"Asshole! Give me back my cigar!!"
Smoker cursed loudly, thinking of the month when he went without food and the days when he secretly picked up cigarette butts, he couldn't help but feel strong anger.
"Huh? What cigar? What are you talking about? I don't know."
Amber scratched her head, with an innocent look on her face, "By the way, if you are free, you can come to my place as a guest. The West Sea is very safe now."
"You guy..."
Smoker was so angry that he was almost dead, but he had no choice but to say, "The Straw Hat boy is causing trouble in Rogge Town. I want to take him back."
"what ever."
Amber smiled and waved her hand, then looked at Ace, "Long time no see, Ace."
"I'm not who I used to be!"
Ace's face was solemn, "This time, I will get back all the previous accounts!"
"Be ambitious!"
Amber couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
"Hey, is this guy an enemy?"
Luffy realized later that the other members of the Straw Hats almost had a myocardial infarction.
"You go first, Luffy."
Ace's whole body was ignited with flames, and with a wave of his hand, he directly blocked Smoker and other marines from behind.
"He is very powerful, you can't beat him."
Hearing this, Luffy was a little unconvinced, but out of trust in his brother, he still followed the advice.
The Straw Hats breathed a sigh of relief and ran towards the port together with their large and small bags.
They were going to the rainy land and couldn't stay here for too long.
"It was so dangerous, so dangerous, I almost died."
Nami patted her already sizable chest, "Speaking of Luffy, your brother is actually the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates."
"Hahaha, Ace is very powerful."
Luffy looked proud.
"That guy..."
Zoro tightened his grip on Hedao Yimoji and felt the urge to turn around and go back to challenge.
He just saw the knife on Amber's waist.
Relying on the keen intuition gained from his sense of direction, Sauron could sense that he must be a very powerful swordsman.
However, before they could run far, they heard a sudden explosion of thunder behind them.
