Beating Up the Celestial Dragons

"Hachi!!!"

Upon witnessing this scene, Luffy couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. He then suddenly looked at Saint Charlos, his eyes turning extremely fierce, and coldly gritted his teeth, saying, "You bastard..."

"Hey, hey, hey, what kind of look is that?!"

Saint Charlos was startled by Straw Hat Luffy's fierce gaze.

Then, quite annoyed, he snapped, "You're really infuriating!"

As he spoke, he raised his gun, ready to strike down Straw Hat Luffy just like he had knocked down Hachi, when Straw Hat Luffy suddenly rushed in front of him and unleashed a furious punch. "Get out of my way!!!"

That punch!

It brutally shattered Saint Charlos's mask, broke his nose, and dented his face.

It flew backward in an explosive manner, crashing into countless seats before finally coming to a stop.

The auction hall was completely silent.

Most people were dumbfounded, staring blankly at Straw Hat Luffy and the unconscious Saint Charlos, their mouths agape, unable to utter a sound.

They couldn't believe it.

There are actually people in this world who dare to attack Celestial Dragons! Aren't they afraid of retaliation from Marine Admiral?

"Oh dear, what an impulsive act, Straw Hat Master!"

"Hey, Straw Hat Luffy, you're a real talent!"

Luo and Kid had completely different opinions, but both of them had a look of admiration in their eyes.

"Excuse me, everyone, I heard that beating up this guy will attract Marine Admiral and warships!"

Straw Hat Luffy is apologizing to his crew right now, but it sounds more like a declaration of war.

Meanwhile, the unnamed but powerful first mate, Nonoroya Zoro, sheathed his sword and said with a disgruntled expression, "It's all your fault for knocking that guy away; I missed my target!"

The implication is that they are not afraid at all and do not think Luffy has done anything wrong!

"Looks like I'll have to make a scene. That's Luffy for you, he's really reckless!"

Sanji is lighting a cigarette; preparations for battle are complete.

"Hmph, what a reckless pirate crew!"

Upon seeing this, Kid grinned and chuckled.

"Run! Run!!!"

"War is about to break out!"

"The Celestial Dragons are about to get angry, we absolutely cannot let ourselves be affected!"

At this moment, the stunned nobles and wealthy people finally came to their senses and fled in panic.

"Damn it, how dare you attack us Celestial Dragons, descendants of the Creator! I'll show you what the serious consequences will be!!"

Saint Charlos's father, Saint Rosward, Straw Hat Luffy.

Unfortunately, the shot missed.

However, the Celestial Dragons guards around them rushed over and surrounded the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Oh dear, it seems I should take action too, otherwise, Miss Mermaid will be in danger!"

The scene was chaotic as the Straw Hat Pirates engaged in a fierce battle with the Celestial Dragons' guards.

Saint Rosward issued an order to summon Marine Admiral, and sounds of naval forces rushing to support them could be heard outside. Ye Liangnai finally stood up.

His standing up immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

"Is this guy planning to attack the Straw Hat Pirates?!"

"Hey, hey, hey, this is no longer a good show!"

Seeing this, Kid thought to himself that something was wrong.

"Is Ye Liangnai about to make a move?" Luo's eyes suddenly turned serious.

"That is..."

When Saint Rosward's guards saw Ye Liangnai, they were overjoyed. "Your Excellency Ye Liangnai, the Shichibukai 'Lightning Killer,' please come to our aid and protect the Celestial Dragons!"

"What?! That guy is 'Lightning Killer' Ye Liangnai!"

"That guy, isn't that the one we met at sea that time!"

"He's Shichibukai? No way, are we going to fight such a strong enemy?"

"The situation is getting bad. There are Marines outside, and now the Shichibukai are blocking our way. Escaping is becoming difficult!"

When the Straw Hat Pirates heard Saint Rosward's Guardian call out Ye Liangnai's name, they immediately recognized her. However, they also remembered Shakuyaku 'Ye Liangnai words of advice to them.

Don't get into a conflict with Ye Liangnai; the Straw Hat Pirates are no match for him!

"You Shichibukai guy, I, as Celestial Dragons, order you to come and protect me and deal with these pirates, or I'll have the Navy revoke your status!"

Saint Rosward shouted at Ye Liangnai in an imperious and arrogant manner.

Upon hearing this, the Straw Hat Pirates immediately became alert.

The opponent is Shichibukai, which is really bad.

"To protect you?"

But upon hearing this, Ye Liangnai scratched her ear and said, "Isn't that the Navy's responsibility? Do I have that obligation?"

"I don't recall that the Navy's cooperation agreement included a clause about protecting the Celestial Dragons!"

With a whoosh, Ye Liangnai appeared beside Keimi on the auction stage, drew her sword, and slashed, pulling Keimi into her arms.

"I'm so sorry, my only target is this lovely lady!"

Upon seeing this, the Straw Hat Pirates were shocked, "Keimi!!"

"You bastard, put Keimi down right now!"

"You are not allowed to harm Keimi!"

Straw Hat Luffy and Sanji became excited and rushed towards Ye Liangnai.

But when faced with their attacks, Ye Liangnai simply swayed twice and dodged them.

And then, with a whoosh, he vanished from his spot and reappeared in the distance beside Nami, Zoro, and the others.

"Hey, Trafalgar's boss, can you do me a favor?"

Ye Liangnai, holding Keimi, grinned at Law, who was watching the show, and said, "Could you help this lovely lady remove the collar from her neck?"

Luo sighed upon hearing this, "Well, there's really no other way. Since Ye Liangnai has personally spoken up, I have no choice but to agree!"

Having said that, he opened his palm and whispered, "Room!"

Then, he swung the knife and slashed at Keimi's neck.

"Keimi!!!"

Upon seeing this, Nami's pupils contracted, and she gasped in horror.

"Pfft!"

Keimi's neck was cut off, and the collar fell to the ground.

"You bastard..."

Upon seeing this, Sanji's right leg blazed with fierce flames as he charged forward at top speed.

"Return!"

With a flick of Luo's index finger, Keimi's head was back on her neck, completely unharmed, without a drop of blood.

"This..."

This scene made Sanji stop in his tracks.

"Thank you!"

Ye Liangnai thanked Law, then put Keimi down and said, "Miss Keimi, it's alright!"

Seeing this, the Straw Hat Pirates finally realized that Ye Liangnai was there to save Keimi, and that she wasn't their enemy.

"So you weren't the enemy after all! Hahaha, that's great, Keimi, you're finally alright!"

Upon seeing this, Straw Hat Luffy grinned broadly, revealing a sunny smile.
