This is a deserted island that Ace marked himself.
The revolutionary army learned a lot from Noah, including some retreat routes and safe houses.
After everyone's wounds were bandaged, the traditional banquet began.
Men on the sea love this, not to mention a hearty battle and meeting long-lost relatives.
Everyone sat in comfortable chairs, roasting campfires with large pieces of meat skewered on them, and rum and fruit at hand.
In the past, Noah tried to change his eating habits, such as frying and frying.
This kind of thing does exist in the world of One Piece. Restaurants like Barati can be found in many places.
Unfortunately, the atmosphere of eating big chunks of meat and drinking big gulps of wine is better on the sea.
Ace and Sabo were very happy watching Luffy talking and laughing, as if the previous battle was nothing, even though he was beaten like a dog by the Lone Red.
It's just a failure. They don't know how many times they have failed since they set out to sea.
Some come from peers, some from teachers, and some from enemies.
Ace was fine when he was traveling as a pirate, and his fire fist was quite famous. But since he joined the Revolutionary Army, he has been attacked one after another.
He failed in academic subjects, was average in physical education, and his development of fruit abilities was ridiculed as flashy and impractical.
Even the world I have seen is not as much as the people in the Revolutionary Army Headquarters. My travels have been in vain.
But after serious study and hard work, I have now achieved an all-round breakthrough, and at the same time I have developed an indomitable spirit.
Not to mention Sabo, who was brought to the South China Sea by Noah when he was a child.
The people who lived in Noah's cabin at the same time were all tough guys from all over the world.
He thought that if he didn't have this fleshy fruit, he might not have been able to see the backs of those perverts.
In addition, his first battle after his official debut was against the navy hero Garp.
Just after eating the fruit, he was knocked down by a punch. Sabo has a lot of experience with failure.
So the two of them didn't have much feeling about the previous battle at all.
Personal victories and failures no longer linger in their minds; what matters more to them is the success or failure of the revolutionary cause.
Talent is important, but intelligence is the guarantee of being able to make it to the end.
But other young people rarely encounter such things.
It was obvious that the Straw Hat Pirates members didn't have a good appetite. No one even ate a bite of the meat even though it was burnt.
Breaking into the Judicial Island, defeating CP9 and rescuing Vivi can be said to be a great success in this operation.
But this process was so tragic that everyone was immersed in their own thoughts.
If just one person made a mistake on that day, the entire team might be wiped out, and everyone would reach the end of their lives without having to realize their dreams.
Luffy also realized his own limits for the first time.
If the second half of the battle continues at this level... do I really have to sacrifice the lives of my crew members for my dream?
Thinking about the brutal battle process and the moment when his friends fell one after another, Luffy was rarely shaken.
Well, the Red Earl achieved his goal.
In the original work, every battle Luffy had before the summit was difficult and arduous, but he defeated the enemy with his own strength.
This time, if they simply killed Rob Lucci and then retreated, they could have maintained this momentum.
But the intrusion of Lone Red interrupted the rhythm.
It was like a huge mountain suddenly appeared in front of them, ruthlessly shattering the Straw Hat Pirates' fantasy.
It turns out that the strong don't wait until the weak grow up before taking action, but will take action at any time.
Just thinking that Luffy should change crew members or that Luffy should become stronger is unreasonably and forcefully planning the path for a young boy.
Fortunately, he only forced your ideas instead of taking your life. For a general-level strongman, such behavior is considered mild.
However, such reckless operations caught the younger generations off guard, and they saw in advance that the reality of the sea is willful and violent.
Of course, it is unknown how much Noah did here, but the effect is very good.
Conis and Usopp, the two people who were most seriously injured, did not feel depressed.
He has a very accurate understanding of his own positioning and considers himself a weak person.
All I have to do is try my best to keep up with my teammates and not fall behind, so I don’t have such a strong sense of responsibility.
Moreover, he had performed very well in the previous battles, performing very well both in terms of mentality and actual damage.
The perfect performance allowed the two of them to face the future with a little more calmness.
But some people suffer a lot, extremely much.
Kobe, a small town boy from the East China Sea.
At this moment, I have fallen into a very strange state of self-blame.
He felt that he was drifting further and further away from the team, which was obvious in combat and other aspects.
He does not have top-notch sniping talent, does not understand technological creations, and has almost no knowledge of the ocean.
The physical skills that he had practiced blindly were not enough to keep up with the increasingly intense combat levels.
In the battle of Judicial Island, he was the first person to be killed instantly by Lucci, and he had no power to resist at all.
But I can't find a way to improve myself, and I don't want to leave my companions, and I don't want to be the one who holds them back.
I felt so melancholy inside that I had no appetite at all even when looking at the tempting food.
Coby's thinking reflects what an ordinary person would think when being with the protagonist, which is that the pressure is like a mountain.
Family background, talent, bloodline, ability, and luck.
The pain of being crushed to the point of being completely humiliated was really unbearable. He was not yet the future colonel of the Marine Headquarters and a member of the secret special forces (SWORD).
Coby is already suffering a lot, and Sanji, as the main fighting force, is in even greater pain.
Even if he awakened the exoskeleton from the Vinsmoke family, he was unable to protect his friends. When he saw Vivi and Conis fall, he felt very desperate.
The white wings were blown to a crisp and fell to the ground without any life.
At that moment, time seemed to be infinitely stretched, and the hands that were stretched out in vain had no power at all.
As a gentleman, how could I fail to protect these two beautiful companions.
He was thinking about what to do. If he continued like this, it would not be good for everyone.
The people sitting around the campfire were so depressed that they were almost emitting black air. Even the flames were suppressed and listless.
No matter how Ace and Sabo tried to liven up the atmosphere, it was useless and the two men felt helpless.
Fortunately, the person they were waiting for was about to arrive.
"Alalalalal~~~, is this the Straw Hat Pirates that just made a name for themselves? Why do they look so impressive?"
A woman with long black hair walked out from the darkness, alerting everyone present.
This dark aura... is so strong!
The Straw Hat Pirates, who were still sensitive, felt that the sea was so strange.
The strong ones appear in their world one after another.
Ace and Sabo both stood up and saluted the visitor.
"Teacher Robin, you are finally here."
That’s right, Robin is the professional that Noah specially arranged to solve the future of the Straw Hat Pirates.
I have many years of experience as a caring big sister and as an internship in a compulsory study group.
The Minister of Education who has suppressed countless new revolutionary army members.
Knowing that this mysterious and dangerous woman is Robin, the legendary devil's child of the top leader of the Revolutionary Army, everyone's already unstable hearts are shocked again.
This is definitely the highest level of the revolutionary army, and he is like a brother to the revolutionary lights.
The battle records are all about Mary Geoise, Marshal Kizaru and the like, which is scary.
But what is this woman doing here?
It can't be that he came here for us.
To be frank, the gap between the Straw Hat Pirates members present here and the Devil's Child is unimaginable, and this is something we all recognize.
So that means giving face to Ace and Sabo? Wow! That's too much.
Everyone was confused and didn't know how to react. Even Sanji, the sex-crazed chef who couldn't walk when he saw a beautiful woman, didn't get sick.
Because he felt that if he was disrespectful, he would be beaten to death, in the physical sense.
And Robin was also observing several members of the Straw Hat Pirates.
Especially he looked at Luffy a few more times.
Ever since this little guy appeared in Noah's eyes, he has never left the Revolutionary Army's sight.
What a great importance this is!
Since he was a child, someone has been arranged to observe Luffy and receive a summary of the situation in Windmill Village every month.
Even Noah would go to see this little boy in person almost every time he went to the East China Sea.
So Robin has known about Luffy's existence for a long time, but this is the first time she sees him in person.
Looking closely, he seems to be a normal kid except that he is a little silly and mentally retarded.
He has never done anything bad, so his eyes are quite clear.
But there must be something unusual about being paid so much attention by that man. Besides Im, it was the straw hat that caught Noah's attention the most.
He also often says some weird things. Robin has known him for so many years and can naturally tell how serious Noah is.
She has read Luffy's entire resume from before he went to sea to after he went to sea.
Basically, he is invincible. Every battle is difficult and life-threatening, but he always wins.
But if that's all, Ace has also gone through such a stage, and he is the legitimate bloodline heir of One Piece but has not received such attention.
So where is Luffy's secret hidden?
Garp's grandson, Long's son? That shouldn't be the case.
Such bloodline alone would certainly amaze ordinary people, but it would not attract the attention of people at their level.
That is the straw hat inherited from Roger and Red Hair, which is more of a symbol of faith.
What else could it be? Could it be the rubber fruit?
After eliminating all impossible options, the one that remains is the truth.
Robin had a strong intuition that this rubber fruit should not be that simple.
It is said that Shanks was kidnapped from the CP department himself.
Fruit...will...freedom...era...
So that's why Noah arranged for himself to come here to delay the Straw Hat crew's schedule?
Most of the secrets of this world have been revealed by her as a historian, and only a few mysteries remain, and Luffy is one of them.
Of course Robin wouldn't show it. There was still a lot of time, so he would first complete Noah's instructions.
So I found a chair and sat down lazily.
Although he looks lazy, he has the aura of a gangster boss firmly in his hands.
He spoke calmly to the Straw Hat Pirates.
“This sea cannot be too chaotic in the next two years.
And someone said that you are the source of the unrest, so I came to take a look.
But unfortunately, the strength of everyone here has not reached such a level, but the troubles they cause are bigger than each other.
