Chapter 10 Roronoa Zoro! (Please read on~)

East China Sea, Four Leaf Island Sea, Shields Town.

A peaceful and tranquil atmosphere floats over the town, and people come and go on the streets.

As a town backed by the Navy Branch Base, the quality of life in Shields Town is more stable than many cities in the East China Sea.

Because they never have to worry about the invasion of pirates.

However, are things really as perfect as they seem on the surface?

As the saying goes, if there is no external trouble, there must be internal trouble.

If it were three years ago, Shields Town would indeed be a town full of happiness.

But since Colonel Monka, who captured the great pirate "Black Cat" Crowe, was transferred here to garrison, the sky above Shields Town has been inexplicably shrouded in a layer of black fog.

No one could have imagined that the great hero Colonel Monka would be a violent dictator!

His many tyrannies have long made this peaceful town a mess.

Even Roronoa Zoro, a famous pirate hunter in the East China Sea, was caught here.

This incident has become an important topic of conversation among people in several nearby seas.

…

…

"OK, this is it!"

"Luffy, go and secure the boat in the port."

Under the bright sunshine, Red, who arrived at the port of Shields Town, took the lead in getting off the boat, and then gave instructions to Luffy who looked reluctant.

Luffy pouted his lips and took the rope and circled it around the wooden piles in the port.

"Really? I'm the captain, why do I have to do this kind of work?"

Red ignored Luffy's complaints, looked hard at the back of Shields Town, and said:

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, have you heard?"

"It is precisely because you are the captain that you should do more work!"

"Instead of complaining, you might as well get to work! Do you still want to find a third partner!?"

"Hey~Hey! I know!"

Luffy, who was controlled by Red, put away his complaints as soon as he heard about the new partner. He quickly tied the reins and jumped to Red's side.

Looking at the huge naval base in front of him, he, the pirate, did not show any fear, but his eyes were flashing with excitement and expectation.

"Hey, Akahina, is that guy really as powerful as you say?"

"The future world's greatest swordsman, paired with me, the future Pirate King, is simply... so cool!!!"

"Hehe, when have I ever lied to you?" Akahina smiled lightly, "Let's go, don't let our partner wait too long!"

"Ah? But I'm so hungry now, the smell in that store is so delicious, why don't we go there after we finish eating?"

Luffy covered his rumbling stomach, sniffed his nose, and suggested to Akahina.

In return, Akahina rolled her eyes.

"You idiot! You're still thinking about eating at such an important time!?"

"Hurry up! Our future partner is still hungry!"

Snap!

Akahina stretched out her palm and hit Luffy's neck hard, making a crisp sound.

"Hiss~ It hurts, Red!" He covered his swollen neck, but suddenly froze for a moment:

"Red, your strength!?"

It was no secret to Luffy that Red had no fighting ability.

He had known about Red's special physique for a long time.

It stands to reason that with Red's power, it would be impossible for him, who has the ability of the rubber fruit, to feel pain.

But now, the burning pain behind his neck surprised him.

"Hehe!" Red smiled proudly, "You are not the only one who can improve, Luffy!"

"Okay, enough chatting, it's time to do business!"

After the voice fell, Red took a step directly and walked towards the naval base.

Luffy, who was left behind, stared at Red's back in a daze.

But after a moment, he suddenly grinned and laughed.

"You are worthy of being the vice captain I chose!"

Under the scorching sun, a straw hat boy chased a baseball cap boy.

……

……

The town of Shields is not that big.

Not long after, Red and Luffy crossed the streets of Shields Town and came to the base of the 153rd Branch.

Because there were many navy soldiers guarding the gate, the two of them came to the side of the base with ease.

Perhaps all the funds were used for squandering, the wall of this naval base was not high at all, only about two meters.

With a light jump, Red and Luffy easily climbed to the top of the wall and looked out to observe the inside of the base.

In the open space behind the wall, a wooden cross more than one person high was placed in a very strange way.

This is the place where Colonel Monka punishes rebels.

At this time, on this cross, a man with a green hood, a green belly band, and three earrings on his ears was tied.

It was the most courageous man in the pirate world-Roronoa Zoro! ! !

"Huh!?"

Even in such an embarrassing state, Zoro still noticed the abnormality in an instant and cast his eyes to the fence where Red and the others were.

I just happened to see the two heads placed on the fence.

"Huh? He seems to have noticed us, Akane."

"After all, he is the man I chose. If he doesn't have this little bit of vigilance, he is not qualified to be our third person!!!"

Luffy and Akane said in unison.

Then the two of them moved synchronously, pushed their arms, and jumped directly from the outside of the wall into the naval base.

As Red looked at his favorite pirate character, he asked Luffy:

"How is it, my captain?"

"Are you satisfied with the partner I chose?"

"Hehe, I believe in your vision!"

Luffy smirked, looked at the rope on Zoro and said:

"Next, just untie the rope and let him go with us!"

"This... I'm afraid it won't work."

Red shook his head and walked towards Zoro with Luffy, saying as he walked:

"The commander of this naval base is an extremely asshole..."

"If we just let him go, the residents of this town will probably suffer."

"So the best solution is to beat up the naval colonel here!"

"Okay! Listen to you!" Luffy shook his arms, as if he was talking about something very easy.

The two men's unbridled appearance and the ever-closer distance finally made Zoro unable to bear it, and he suddenly said:

"Hey! You two guys, this is not a place where you can just come in casually!"

"If you don't want to die, leave here quickly!"

Zoro's tone was deliberately mixed with some fierceness and malice, not wanting others to get involved in his affairs.

But who is Luffy?

Faced with Zoro's persuasion, he didn't hesitate for a second and directly refused:

"Leave here? I don't want to!"

Luffy curled his lips, and then laughed unreasonably:

"Red said you will become the world's number one swordsman in the future!"

"Such a great guy, I must make you my partner!"

"The world's number one swordsman!? Partner!?"

Zoro's expression trembled slightly, and then he looked at the two people who had walked to his side, showing a puzzled look.

Being able to easily talk about his dreams made him feel that the two guys in front of him seemed to be not ordinary people.

"Who are you two?"

"My name is Luffy, and I'm a pirate." Luffy answered casually, and then reached out to untie the rope on Zoro.

Seeing this, Zoro immediately shouted:

"Hey! Don't touch that rope!"

But Luffy would never listen to him, and directly removed the rope on Zoro's right wrist.

"Hehe, I don't want to listen to you!"

"Anyway, when I untie you, you must become my partner!"

"Damn you!"

"I won't go along with pirates!"

Seeing that Luffy was about to untie the left hand after untying the right one, Zoro hurriedly used his freed hand to stop Luffy.

He made an agreement with Colonel Monka's son that as long as he persisted in this situation for a month, Colonel Monka's son would release him and the innocent little girl.

He had persisted for 9 days, how could he let outsiders destroy it so easily?

But at this moment, Chihong suddenly said:

"Do you really think that the son of the navy colonel will obey the agreement!?"

Chihong's words seemed to have power, and instantly stopped Zoro's arm.

But he continued:

"Don't be silly, Zoro!"

"He is just playing with you! No one can go without food or drink for a month. Even if you do it, you will only become a toy in his hands in a weak state!"

"You should have guessed this, right!?"

"…………"

Zoro fell silent.

Of course, he expected what Chihong said.

But he didn't want to make enemies with the navy, so he chose to abide by the agreement.

But Chihong's words were like a ruthless hand, directly tearing his impression of the navy's justice.

Only after Luffy untied all the ropes on him did Zoro stand up, staring at Red and asked:

"Who are you?"

"Me?"

Red put away his serious expression, smiled and replied:

"My name is Red, I am the vice captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, and also a..."

"Rookie trainer!"
