Keimi Kidnapped, World Nobles

'Coo coo coo~~'

Several white doves landed at 'Sabaody Paradise,' which occupies the three peninsulas of Sabaody (32, 33, and 34), tilting their heads to survey the throngs of people below, and quickly found their target among the tourists:

"Hehehe, let's go have some fun!!"

Luffy, Chopper, Brook, and the mermaid Keimi excitedly rushed into the amusement Paradise while searching for a coating technician, making a pigeon rub its temples with its wing.

Sigh, the sense of crisis, the sense of crisis...

Luffy and the others had just been a little more careful, they wouldn't have caused the series of events that followed.

Seeing the initially cautious Hachi and Pappagu join the revelry, the white doves were utterly bewildered! Roman really didn't understand what was so fun about this; for him, only greater strength and more abilities were worth celebrating.

No matter how many times Roman warned them, aside from Robin and Franky, Sanji who never encountered a beautiful woman, and Zoro who never got lost, everyone else remained carefree and unsuspecting. Otherwise, with Luffy and his crew's strength, a mere few slave-hunting teams...

Under the watchful eyes of the white pigeons, a group of people, having played until they were completely exhausted, leaned slumped against a bench, ready to buy some ice cream and rest—

Several shadowy figures dressed as mascots covered the mouth of the mermaid girl, Keimi, and gently pulled her back, disappearing into the alleyway next to the building.

Alas... a few pigeons saw this, but did not take any further action.

Observation Haki, oh Observation Haki, Luffy, you clearly Awakening Three Types of Haki a long time ago, yet you only use them in battle! You lack even the most basic awareness in normal times, which is why you constantly fall into all sorts of ridiculous traps and snares...

As for Chopper and Brook, Roman didn't blame them. Chopper was just an innocent reindeer who hadn't been away from his hometown for long, and Brook had been trapped in the Thriller Bark 50 years. Besides, neither of them possessed Observation Haki.

Watching Keimi being stuffed into a sack by human traffickers and disappear in a flash, the white doves lowered their eyes.

Sorry, Luffy.

You won't grow unless you experience true despair. —To King of the Pirates, you have to be stronger than anyone else!

Lala~~

As Luffy and his crew, realizing Keimi was missing, called out anxiously, the white doves spread their wings and scattered.

"Roman— "

"Um?"

Roman, who had been dozing with his eyes closed, opened them to find Nami puffing up her cheeks and Robin smiling gently.

Is shopping with me really that boring?

Faced with Nami's question, Roman stroked his chin and thought about it seriously.

"A little,"

?

"Uppercut!!"

Bang!

"Ouch~~"

Roman, who had taken a punch to the chin, didn't budge. On the contrary, Nami was clutching her fist with tears welling up in her eyes, which made Roman sigh.

"You always slack off when I tell you to train properly—you don't even have the strength to fight, yet you call yourself a pirate?"

!!

I'm so angry, but I can't say a word—

"Nami, let's go to the next one."

Seeing Nami's blood pressure soaring, Robin quickly Nami her by pointing to a jewelry store nearby. Meanwhile, Roman casually tossed a wad of Beli to the shopkeeper, then, with a "Welcome back next time" greeting and a fawning bow, picked up a bunch of bags and followed the two beauties.

At the same time, Roman's eyes flickered, on the other side:

On Peninsula 24, where a group of Supernovas have gathered, the 'unique' creatures of the Sabaody Archipelago are swaggering around.

"Where did Shalria and Daddy go?"

A disgusting fellow with a silly face, bubbles on his head, and snot hanging from his nose sat on the back of a man crawling on his knees. He was holding not only the chain attached to the neck of the man under his buttocks, but also two numb-faced women at the other end of the chain.

"We know their destination, so please rest assured."

The man in the black suit and sunglasses next to him, with his hands in his pockets, answered.

"Saint Charloss".

Only one type of person in this world has the right to have 'Saint' added to their name. That is:

Celestial Dragons!

The Celestial Dragons are World Noble residing in the Holy Land Mary Geoise. They are descendants of the 20 kings who established the World Government 800 years ago, and consider themselves "descendants of the Creator."

Because of his self-importance, he disdains breathing the same air as ordinary people and wears a bubble hood. He treats other races as slaves and enjoys all privileges. If offended, the Admiral of the Marine Headquarters or CP0 must be dispatched to protect him.

Incidentally, Vivi's family was actually one of the 'Twenty Kings', but her ancestor refused the Celestial Dragons status and returned to his country Alabasta, so there are actually only nineteen Celestial Dragons.

In short, the moment this guy appeared, everyone on the street immediately retreated to the sides, knelt down, and bowed their heads.

While the unruly Supernovas did not kneel, they all hid in the shadows of the building, spying on the scene.

"Oh, so this is the world's noble pig?"

"A bunch of trash..."

"Killing him is no easier than killing an ant, but..."

Just then, by sheer bad luck, a doctor and nurse carrying a patient happened to pass by the intersection ahead, and then:

Bang!

"How dare you run in front of us? Are you tired of living?"

After firing the first shot, the disgusting, snotty-nosed man looked at the young nurse.

"I'll make you my wife."

?

"Yes, process the formalities for the 13th wife to move into the Holy Land immediately."

The man in the suit and sunglasses bowed slightly.

"Hey, wait a minute!" A man next to me stood up excitedly. "She's my fiancée—"

Bang!

After firing another shot, the problem was solved.

"Hmm, even more reckless than the rumors say..."

Just as everyone was kneeling on the ground, daring not to speak out in anger, a short-haired green-haired samurai with three swords at his waist and a wine bottle in his hand walked towards them, drinking as he went.

"Captain, that's...!"

"The third member of the Straw Hat Luffy family, 'Pirate Hunter' Zoro!"

Aside from the Straw Hat crew, all the other Supernovas cautiously gathered intelligence along the way, whether they were from the Navy or other pirate groups. —In this world, Luffy and his Luffy are probably the only ones who managed to get here by sheer brute force...

"That guy's going to cause trouble."

Amidst the frowning, disdainful, or worried gazes of the crowd, Zoro swaggered up to the Celestial Dragons with the fish tank and raised his eyebrows.

"What are you doing standing on the main road? Need directions?"

······

Bang!

When in doubt, shoot first.

After all, one can't expect this snotty-nosed man named 'Saint Charloss' to have much brain capacity, but this time he chose the wrong target:

With a slight sway, Zoro easily dodged the bullet! The Wado Ichimonji at his waist was drawn, baring its fangs like a demonic beast!

"Hey, what's that kid up to!"

"Damn it, this will—"

In the instant that the other Supernovas were shocked, a 'little girl' suddenly pounced on Zoro and knocked him to the ground.

"Brother, how could you die?!"

??

"Hey—who told you to offend Celestial Dragons? It's only natural you'd die~~"

???

Zoro, pinned beneath the little girl, was completely bewildered and covered in ketchup. He couldn't struggle for a moment—while the snotty-nosed man who had fired the gun tilted his head.

"Hey, did I hit him?"

"I have a feeling he dodged it... Well, since he's dead, so be it."

As the Celestial Dragons turned and left, everyone on the street breathed a sigh of relief. The white dove perched on the rooftop, however, blinked.

That idiot Celestial Dragons actually noticed the 'fact' that Zoro dodged!

Given Zoro's current strength, ordinary people wouldn't even notice him, let alone see him clearly; they wouldn't even react if they were cleaved in two by a single strike. No wonder he's descended from one of the twenty royal families that once ruled the world; he certainly doesn't lack for high-quality nourishing foods and medicines.

Otherwise, he would get punched by an angry Luffy later. With Luffy's ability to easily split mountains and rocks, even a pig's head would probably be blown to bits on the spot.

It seems even this pig is quite resilient...

"You idiot!"

Seeing Zoro's bewildered expression, Jewelry Bonney, now with her youthful figure restored, angrily pointed to her temple.

"What were you thinking?! What if you recruit a high- Admiral?!"

"Thanks to Bonnie, otherwise we would have been in trouble."

In response to his subordinate's words, Capone Bege nodded, a rare occurrence for him.

"I heard that the Straw Hat Pirates are not normal people, but I didn't expect them to actually dare to cut down Celestial Dragons... They are really crazy."

"That's only natural," Hawkins said with a charlatan's grin. "He didn't look like he was about to die."

"The murderous aura that kid just exuded..." Apoo said, still shaken, "Was like that of a monster!"

"The number three person is worth 140 million? That doesn't seem like the type to be subservient to others..."

"The Mad Monk" Urouge remarked.

"I really want to see the magnanimity of his captain!"

Then you're going to be disappointed.

The white dove crouching nearby awkwardly Guotou away, because Luffy currently:

"Are you sure they don't sell mermaids?!"

Luffy grabbed the shopkeeper and shook him violently. Even the shady human traffickers could only bow their heads in humility in the face of the 'famous' Great Pirates with a bounty of 300 million.

"No... no, we don't have a warehouse, these are just what we have here..."

"Keimi!!"

"Keimi, where are you—"

Watching Luffy running around and shouting like a headless Luffy, the white dove who had been following them sighed.

They had specifically explained how to use the 'cell phone' beforehand, but when it really came down to it Luffy like he was just holding a piece of paper on his wrist...

Lala~~

A white dove, flapping its wings, landed in front of Luffy and his crew, who were completely bewildered, and began to speak human language.

"Luffy, what happened?"

"Roman!"

Luffy, looking extremely anxious, immediately saw his savior.

"Keimi is lost! Please help me find her—"

"Understood,"

Seeing that the slave-catching team that the white dove was following had already entered the auction house on Island 1, and that the two Celestial Dragons wearing 'fishbowls' had also entered the auction house, the white dove in front of Luffy and the others nodded in a pretentious manner.

"Leave it to me."
