Chapter 378: Seven years later
Chapter 378: Seven years later
Time flies, time flies.
In a blink of an eye, seven years have passed.
Luffy is fourteen years old this year.
Colubo Mountain, somewhere in the jungle.
Luffy's voice sounded in the jungle.
"32 Brick Fist!"
boom--!
32 Brick Fist, which represents the strength that can break 32 tiles with one blow. However, the 32 Brick Fist that Luffy shouted, smashed the huge tree in front of him with a single blow and flew back a good distance. At the same time as it flew upside down, it also crashed and smashed other giant trees along the way.
The whole jungle was covered in smoke.
After 32 Brick Fist, should it be called 33 Brick Fist, or what, Luffy doesn't know.
He is too lazy to care.
So even though his punches are getting stronger day by day, he is still shouting a 32 Brick Fist.
At this time, Ace appeared not far behind Luffy, he threw the suitcase in his hand to Luffy, and said, "Luffy! Let's fight one last time!"
Luffy took the suitcase, smiled brightly, and turned on the switch of the suitcase: "Okay, Silver! Come on!"
After saying that, he rushed towards Ace together with the Silver in his hand.
The duel begins!
Silver Eater is sometimes turned into a blade for slashing and stabbing, and into a flat-toothed monster that can expand and contract freely, combining with rubber fists and legs to cooperate with these attacks.
Silver is used in Luffy's hand, like the fifth arm he was born with.
The attack caused Ace to retreat again and again.
Finally, after dozens of rounds, just listen to 'Dang!' a loud bang.
The faucet steel pipe in Ace's hand was cut off by the Silver ghee that turned into a blade, and at the same time it turned into a flat-toothed monster, and it was about to bite Ace's head!
"Silver, stop!"
The giant flat-toothed mouth approached Ace, stopped, and then slowly retreated, turning into a blade again.
Seeing this, Ace couldn't help but sighed in relief.
The saliva from the giant flat-toothed mouth just now dripped onto his cheeks.
If Luffy hadn't stopped it, I guess he really wouldn't have explained it here today.
He scared him into a cold sweat.
After 7 years of training, Luffy, the worry-free younger brother, finally defeated him. However, he was not discouraged by it.
The reason why Luffy was able to defeat him so easily was largely because of this weapon.
There is nothing to blame.
He believed that as long as he went to sea, even if he didn't have a big brother like Li Yaoxiang to give him a weapon, he would definitely be able to find his own weapon in this sea and find another way to still become stronger.
Luffy walked up to Ace and helped Ace by pulling his hand.
"Going to sea today?"
"Um."
"Have you packed your bags?"
"Not yet."
"Let's go, I'll accompany you."
After a while, Dadan's home.
As soon as they entered the door, Curly Dadan threw the burden directly on Ace, and said fiercely: "If you want to get out, get out! Why are you still dawdling here?! I don't have the spare time to continue to take care of you!"
After saying that, Curly Dadan turned around as if sulking, sat down, and didn't even look at Ace again.
The rest of the bandits were not as enthusiastic as Curly Dadan, saying that they wanted to send Ace the last ride together.
Ace was surrounded by a group of bandits like this, from Colubo Mountain to Windmill Village, and then said goodbye to Windmill Village's acquaintances such as Makino and the village chief.
The villagers of Windmill Village also joined the farewell team.
Soon, a group of people came to the pier.
Before leaving, Ace patted Luffy on the shoulder and said, "Remember, if you really want to be a marine, don't become that kind of marine, otherwise, I will come back and kill you myself!"
Luffy looked complicated and bit his lower lip.
Nod.
Immediately afterwards, Ace immediately opened the topic and broke the heavy atmosphere: "By the way, help me tell Dadan, thank her for taking care of me for so many years!"
Luffy resumed his smile: "Yeah!"
Ace stepped onto the boat.
The boat drifted away.
"Goodbye! Ace!"
"Wait and see! I'll be famous for you soon!"
Back at Dadan's house, Luffy told Curly Dadan what Ace said.
The seemingly vicious and unfeeling Curly Dadan was moved to tears on the spot, but she still insisted: "Stop talking, Idiot!!"
So, the son of Pirate King, just embarked on his voyage...
A few months later, Luffy and others could even read Ace's wanted notice in the newspaper, knowing that Ace and his partners founded the Spade Pirates, and that Ace was really famous.
But that's all for later.
Because in the morning after Ace went to sea, Li Yaoxiang appeared in Colubo Mountain again and appeared in front of Luffy.
In the past seven years, in addition to carrying out his own plans, Li Yaoxiang also instructed Luffy to train and become stronger from time to time. He intends to lay the foundation for Luffy's three-color Haki.
"Big brother, where are we going this time?"
"Take you to experience, you just follow along."
"Oh..."
Shells Town.
This was originally a peaceful town.
But since the Marine transferred a captain named Morgan, the whole town has never been peaceful. As soon as this marine captain named Morgan took office, he implemented a series of tyranny... which made the residents of Shells Town miserable.
And, to make matters worse, Morgan also has a son named Helmeppo, who always likes to bully the market on the streets.
He recently bought a wolf out of nowhere and kept it as a pet.
He likes to take it for walks on the street.
It was so frightening that the residents dared not even go out.
On this day, Helmeppo walked on the street with his pet wolf again. But with slender hands and feet, he couldn't hold the rope that tied the pet wolf at all.
It happened that the pet wolf was staring at a commoner on the street at this time, and he broke free from the shackles of Helmeppo and rushed towards the commoners.
Even if Helmeppo wanted to stop it, it was too late to stop it.
Just when the pet wolf was about to catch up with the common man, a burst of anger suddenly came from everyone's ears: "Rubber 32 Brick Fist!"
The pet wolf was beaten so much that his eyes popped out.
It flew upside down.
It was still rolling on the ground continuously, rubbing dozens of times, and finally moaning twice, and it was completely hiccups.
Helmeppo was relieved to see that no one was injured.
But he reacted at once, and immediately turned an ugly face: "My pet! Who is it?!! Who killed my pet?! Don't you know who I am?! I am the son of the great naval captain, Morgan! How dare you kill my pet?!"
Helmeppo looked around.
Trying to find the attacker.
Soon, he saw a guy in a straw hat and a suitcase not far away, and a guy behind him was wearing a mask, who was not a good person at first glance, walking towards him in a very conspicuous way
