Setting Sail! The Unexpected Peach Rabbit / Rambling, Dongze Unleashed

Gion only glanced at Robin for two or three seconds before turning her attention to Dongze instead.

Dongze, whose height has increased rapidly, is already a head taller Gion.

A perfect physique, a loose-fitting Swordsmanship uniform, an open chest revealing well-developed pectoral muscles, and a large box slung over his back.

What impressed Gion the most were her unforgettable starry eyes. If her eyes contained a spiritual quality, then Dongze's eyes held the vastness of the stars and the sea.

"Um!!"

Dongze stood at the entrance, looking around at Gion. To be honest, seeing the real person was much more vivid than seeing the person in the anime.

Seeing the other person's probing gaze, Dongze didn't hide anything and nodded slightly.

"Me too, how about we have Sparring Sparring?"

Seeing that Dongze hadn't hidden anything, Momousagi's eyes crinkled into a smile. As Great Swordsman, there were very few Swordmaster on the entire sea who could Sparring with her, learn from each other, and improve together.

Now that she's finally found one, she doesn't want to waste this precious opportunity!

"Okay! But let me finish my business first!"

Dongze readily accepted any offer of help, and his battle with Hawkeye activated the Flying Immortal Sword Intent, allowing his combat power to break through once again.

His Haki level is now almost on par with Rayleigh's, and if he were to fight Momousagi again now, it could very well allow him to achieve a qualitative leap.

However, he still needed to accomplish his purpose here; he also needed to go to Fish-Man Island, where there was a Poneglyph.

It plays an irreplaceable role in improving one's own strength.

By now, his strength is so great that even if he can't claim to be Invincible in Solitude, he's practically unmatched. Even if Garp came, he would probably only be able to look on in despair.

However, to truly realize that dream, one may not be facing just one person, but a group of people, and may even have to contend with Ancient Weapon.

Uranus, Poseidon, Pluton.

These three Uranus are very likely in the hands of the World Government, posing a significant threat.

"Shakky! My ship needs a coating, is Mr. Rayleigh here?"

After hearing Dongze's words, Momousagi stepped aside, and then Dongze walked a few steps to Shakky and said.

That's right, he came here to have the ship coated; coating the ship is an essential preparatory step before going down to Fish-Man Island.

Of course, going down alone without a boat wouldn't be a big problem, but I wouldn't be able to bring Poneglyph or a bed warmer.

So after thinking it over, he decided to bring it with him.

Hearing Dongze's words, Shakky said helplessly, "Brother! My old man hasn't come back yet! It hasn't been that long, how could he be back so soon!"

Shakky's words seemed nonsensical, Momousagi, standing nearby, found them strange, completely unable to understand what they meant.

However, just because she didn't understand doesn't mean Dongze didn't understand. Shakky's meaning was actually quite clear: Rayleigh went to the East Blue! He's busy delivering the sword, visiting Ace, and taking the Straw Hat; he really won't be back for a while.

When will you be back?

Dongze continued, asking the question.

As for coating, he still doesn't want to interact with other people. His current identity is quite sensitive, and he doesn't want others to know his whereabouts.

If someone with ulterior motives discovers that their target is those Poneglyph, their path ahead will likely become extremely difficult.

"I'm not sure, but it will probably take at least another week or so!"

"Oh, it seems we'll be bothering you for the next few days!"

Upon hearing Dongze's words, Shakky's face immediately lit up with a smile. Such a top-tier figure was someone that money couldn't buy anywhere else!

Seeing that Dongze had finished speaking, Momousagi couldn't help but say, "Hey! Dongze, let's get started!!"

Chapter 104 Setting Sail! The Unexpected Momousagi

"Let's go somewhere else!"

"Dongze and Momousagi walked out of Shakky's Rip-off Bar! "Dongze said softly to Momousagi.

Momousagi glanced at Dongze with her beautiful eyes and nodded slightly.

Her current strength has reached the level of Great Swordsman. If she were to fight in the Sabaody Archipelago, the entire island might be in danger. Moreover, she is a naval officer and cannot be allowed to cause trouble here. Dongze's words also resonated with her.

"Robin! You sit with Shakky for a while, I think we'll be back soon!"

Then Dongze turned around and greeted Robin.

Robin nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

"Can you keep up?"

Dongze unleashed his Observation Haki, rapidly spreading outwards towards the outer reaches of the island, searching for the closest route to the island's edge.

"Little brother, shouldn't your older sister be asking you that?"

Hearing Dongze's unchanging tone, feeling as if the other party didn't take her seriously at all, Momousagi couldn't help but retort.

"You don't need to look anymore. There aren't many uninhabited islands closest to the Sabaody Archipelago. This is a crossroads of the world, and most islands have already been occupied. There are practically no uninhabited islands left!"

"If you trust me, come to our naval base!"

Dongze narrowed his eyes, feeling that Momousagi seemed to be saying this on purpose. She had caused quite a scene at the naval base before, and who knew what she was up to going there now.

"I'm not going!"

Upon hearing Dongze's words, Momousagi paused. In her opinion, that place was the most suitable for them at the moment, and it was close by. She wasn't worried about being punished.

"Do you have a better option?"

"Yes! If you have the guts, come along. If you don't, then our duel is off!"

After thinking it over, Dongze decided to go to the place where he had fought Rayleigh before, the Calm Belt zone for sailing ships, and there was hardly any sign of people there. The surveillance methods there were almost completely ineffective, making it the perfect place for their fight.

Besides, it didn't seem to be very far from there; it hadn't taken them long to get here after their battle with Rayleigh.

"Where?"

Gion hearing Dongze's words, Gion frowned. In the Sabaody Archipelago, there really wasn't anywhere that would allow two Great Swordsman to fight freely.

"You'll find out once you follow!"

Seeing that the other party had no intention of giving up, Dongze took the first step.

"You~~"

Watching Dongze disappear almost in the blink of an eye with a few leaps, Gion her foot, then took out an exquisite Den Den Mushi and sent a telegram.

Then, with a burst of strength in his feet, he leaped forward.

Before long, the two, chasing each other, arrived at the very edge of the Sabaody Archipelago. Looking at the boundless sea, Gion couldn't help but ask, "Hey, you're not telling me we're going to fight in the sea, are you?!"

Dongze glanced behind him discreetly, his brow furrowing slightly. Despite being very careful during their previous movements, they had still managed to attract attention. It was undeniable that the surveillance here had become nearly ten times tighter after Saint Watz's unexpected death.

Seeing Dongze's expression, Gion seemed to have guessed something. "You don't want those people to know about our duel?"

Dongze was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"You're really a strange person. You're just a Shichibukai, yet you dare to fight a Vice Admiral like me, an elite Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters? That will make you famous! Didn't you set sail to become famous?"

Dongze shook his head and asked in return, "Can you use Geppo?"

Gion nodded slightly. To be honest, she knew all Six Powers. She hadn't been wasting her years following Tsuru.

"Shake them off first!"

After saying that, Dongze once again took the lead, soared into the air, and landed on the ship he had previously moored there.

Seeing Dongze's actions, Momousagi couldn't help but frown.

"I'm a navy officer. How dare you steal a ship so blatantly? Aren't you showing me a huge disrespect?"

Dongze chuckled, his expression somewhat strange, and said, "This is my boat! I bought it with Beli!"

Upon hearing this, Gion felt a little embarrassed; she had thought that the ship had been stolen by Dongze!

"Seriously, I don't know how that girl could stand you. Would it kill you to say one more word?!"

Throughout the journey, Dongze spoke to her no more than a handful of times, which was simply miraculous.

As a result, she still doesn't understand the situation and got into an embarrassing situation.

I don't know what to say!

Dongze said very straightforwardly.

Upon hearing this, Gion's chest trembled, clearly angered by Dongze's words.

She took two deep breaths and then stepped onto the two-masted sailboat of Dongze using the Shave and Geppo.

Looking at the layout on the deck, my eyes lit up. There was a very comfortable lawn under my feet, a swing, two parasols, a table, two deck chairs, and two bottles of drinks on the table.

"Please sit wherever you like! I'll drive the boat!"

Then Dongze set sail and, riding the east wind, sped away into the distance.

They quickly left the area of Sabaody, and sensing that those gazes were no longer following them, the glint of sword light in Dongze's eyes slowly faded.

The people on the island truly filled him with mixed emotions. The World Government, after all, had been in power for eight hundred years; eight hundred years was enough time for them to cultivate a considerable number of top-tier combatants.

On his way out of Sabaody, he sensed nearly ten spying consciousnesses, and upon contact, he knew that these ten people had reached the level of Admiral.

Killing them wouldn't be difficult, but doing so in Sabaody would be too drastic and not in line with his style, so he had been holding back. He had originally planned to deal with these ten people if they left the island.

Unexpectedly, they backed down in the end. Of course, it's possible that the other side's mission was only to monitor the Sabaody Archipelago, which is why they stopped there.

"Little brother, you certainly know how to enjoy yourself!"

Gion lay on a recliner, happily taking a sip of her drink, not at all worried about whether something had been spiked on her.

Seeing this carefree and beautiful woman gave Dongze a preliminary understanding of her.

"Aren't you afraid I'll plant something on you?"

"Before I came, I sent my sister a message saying that I wanted to have Sparring with you!"

Dongze was taken aback. "Vice Admiral Tsuru?"

"Uh-huh!!"

Upon hearing Gion's words, Dongze's lips twitched. No wonder she was so arrogant; it seemed she was already certain that he wouldn't make a move.

"Coming out with a Shichibukai, I have to take some precautions!"

"Swordsmanship Challenges the World; who else but me can claim the title? This doesn't sound like something you'd say!"

It seemed that Momousagi loosened up after just a couple of sentences, which surprised Dongze even more.

"What kind of look is that? You're so brooding. Life is all about laughter and jokes, okay?"

Chapter 105 Rambling Thoughts, Dongze's Outburst

"Hey! What are you doing here? Do you still want to Sparring?"

"We haven't even reached the destination yet, have we?"

Listening to Momousagi's endless rambling, Dongze felt as if he had been hit by tons of real damage, almost breaking his defenses.

Watching Momousagi sip her drink while simultaneously unleashing her full power.

Dongze missed Robin immensely. When Robin was on the ship, at least he could be a quiet, handsome man, allowing him to calm down and do some Meditation or something.

Now that it's Momousagi, she's constantly on the go, unleashing a barrage of attacks.

After talking about him, she brought up Rayleigh, then Shakky, and then the Navy's Fleet Admiral, Garp, Tsuru, and Ichito, listing them off as if they were all irredeemable villains.

"Hey, little brother, do you want to hear the story of that old geezer Garp, that shameless Sengoku, and my sister's love triangle?"

"Let me tell you, don't let my sister's current appearance fool you. When she was young, she was the most beautiful girl in our navy. Plus, she was incredibly strong. She was practically the most beautiful woman in our navy back then!"

"Back then, Garp and Sengoku were two old men..."

Hearing these words, Dongze was both amused and exasperated. If he dared to spread such gossip, Garp, Sengoku, and Sengoku would definitely give him a good dressing down.

Perhaps this is why Momousagi dares to be so unrestrained!
