Simultaneous time travel: Why are they all against the protagonist? Chapter 076

Runti’s eyes were practically turning into hearts after Su Luan’s pep talk.

She tore off her mask and fiercely pressed her lips against Su Luan’s.

All members of the Su Luan Pirate Group tacitly turned their faces away.

Although everyone knew about their relationship, this was the first time Runti had made such a bold move in public.

Compared to her, Pudding was much more open.

Smootchie, who was also close by and had heard Su Luan’s words, couldn’t help but ask, “Um… Governor, is the Azure Dragon Fruit for Lady Runti?”

Su Luan released Runti and said with a smile, “No, everyone competes fairly. But even if you don’t get it this time, there will be plenty of opportunities later.”

“The Navy’s Magma Fruit, Glimmer-Glimmer Fruit, Gravity Fruit… The New World pirates’ Phoenix Fruit, Op-Op Fruit, Magnet-Magnet Fruit… There are plenty of good Devil Fruits. If you don’t get one this time, there will be opportunities later. Everyone relax and have fun.”

High-ranking Marine officers and pirates with bounties over 1 billion Beli generally possessed extremely powerful Devil Fruits.

Not to mention that Su Luan’s Susanoo Gourd had already sealed two.

“How exactly are we competing fairly, Captain?”

Doflamingo asked with interest, “Are we competing on who gets the most heads? But the heads of Seraphim aren’t on the same level as those of mere grunts, are they?”

Even taking out a thousand grunt agents couldn’t compare to taking out a single Seraphim.

Simply comparing the number of kills seemed a bit unfair.

Su Luan smiled at the remark, then did something that left everyone present dumbfounded—

Su Luan tossed the Azure Dragon Fruit in his hand, and it landed directly in the hands of Saturn in his human-beast form, even Saturn himself was stunned.

Su Luan clapped his hands and laughed, “Alright, go for it, my lads. Whoever snatches it, the ownership of the Azure Dragon Fruit belongs to them. Whether you want to eat it yourself or give it to someone else, it’s fine!”

Beckman, Yasopp, and others watched Su Luan’s actions, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

As cadres of the Red-Haired Pirate Group, they were already accustomed to their captain’s various outlandish behaviors.

Logically, they should have been used to all sorts of incredible maneuvers.

But at this moment, they were still completely flabbergasted by Su Luan’s actions.

This kid actually gave such an important Devil Fruit directly to the enemy?

…

A few seconds later, Saturn reacted, a mocking smile appearing on his wrinkled face.

“Truly foolish to the extreme!”

Saturn had been agonizing over how to snatch the Azure Dragon Fruit, even considering calling in his four colleagues and the God’s Knights.

He never expected Su Luan to be so stupid as to directly throw the Azure Dragon Fruit to him.

Thump!

As he spoke, Saturn held the fruit in his left hand and struck the ground with the cane in his right.

Vroom~~ Vroom~~ Vroom~~

Instantly, a bizarre black five-pointed star magic circle, seemingly not of this world, appeared out of thin air, sucking Saturn into it from bottom to top.

Saturn mocked, “Goodbye, fools.”

“What is that?!”

“Ma… magic circle?”

The sudden appearance of the magic circle startled everyone again. Seeing Saturn’s feet gradually sinking into it, Runti, who had transformed into her human-beast form and was about to join the battle, shouted, “That guy wants to escape—”

Bang!

Before Runti could even utter the last word “escape,” an ear-splitting sonic boom erupted.

Saturn, whose lower body was already submerged in the magic circle, flew backward.

Like a cannonball, he smashed through the ruins of the auction house, buildings, and a large Yarukiman mangrove tree behind him.

“Cough!”

Saturn, embedded in the trunk of a Yarukiman mangrove tree, coughed up a mouthful of blood. The Azure Dragon Fruit, which he had been holding, also fell from his hand due to exhaustion.

Just then, a hand reached out and caught it precisely.

Who else could it be but Su Luan?!

Thump!

The next second, Su Luan turned around, and Saturn, who had just been embedded in the tree trunk, fell like a dead dog.

“You, you bastard…”

Saturn propped himself up with one hand, his face covered in blood as he looked up.

He couldn’t believe it. Was he not only amazing in skill, but also in strength and speed?

He actually failed to react just now!?

Su Luan flicked his hand, and the Azure Dragon Fruit drew another arc, landing on top of Saturn’s head, “Hold on to it, don’t drop it.”

Now everyone understood why Su Luan dared to leave the Azure Dragon Fruit with the enemy.

Because he had absolute confidence in retrieving the fruit at any time!

“Muhahaha~ Admiral Teach, this kid’s level of madness is no less than yours.”

Catarina looked at Teach and chuckled.

She had thought that Teach, who had sneaked into Impel Down two years ago during the war between the Marines and Whitebeard to release them, the prisoners held in Level 6, was the craziest person.

She didn’t expect to meet another one today.

“Have fun, everyone. Opportunities to humiliate the highest authority in the world don’t come often.”

Su Luan waved to his subordinates and laughed.

Then, he used Soru to arrive at the edge of the battlefield, sat down cross-legged, and pulled Pudding into his arms.

He clearly had no intention of personally intervening.

“Charge!”

Cracker excitedly grabbed his saber, Pretzel, and slashed towards the Seraphim with his tongue sticking out.

The other members of the Su Luan Pirate Group followed closely behind.

Their eyes red, they raised their swords and charged at the government forces led by Saturn.

As Su Luan said, who wouldn’t want to step on the faces of the usually arrogant and high-and-mighty World Nobles?

Especially when it’s one of the Five Elders, the top World Nobles, and there’s also the grand prize of the Azure Dragon Fruit!

But most importantly, it was the divine power Su Luan had just displayed in severely injuring Saturn!

At this moment, the entire Su Luan Pirate Group had the thought, “With such a strong captain backing us up, what’s there to fear?”

One by one, they charged at their targets like madmen.

“Yasopp, did you see the trajectory of that kid’s attack just now?”

Limejuice secretly glanced at Su Luan, who was flirting with Pudding, and quietly asked Yasopp.

Yasopp, as the sniper, had the best eyesight on their ship.

“I stared until my eyes almost popped out, and I could only barely catch the direction. But if you ask me to hit him… sorry, I’m not confident.”

Yasopp bit his thick lips and looked at the vice-captain, “Beckman, what about you?”

“Roughly the same. That terrifying brat, how did he grow so much in such a short time?”

Beckman’s brows furrowed, “Luffy’s in trouble.”

“I was wondering why the Red-Haired Pirate Group, who dislike Devil Fruit users, came here. Turns out they’re here to gather intelligence for Monkey D. Luffy.”

Su Luan’s voice suddenly rang out, immediately drawing the attention of both Beckman and Blackbeard’s groups, who were observing.

“So what now? What does your crew plan to do? Pretending not to see anything is good for everyone. Of course, if you want to die with Monkey D. Luffy, I don’t mind.”

As early as when Su Luan decided to kill Monkey D. Luffy to avenge Kaido, he was mentally prepared to make enemies with the countless forces behind Monkey D. Luffy.

The Red-Haired Pirate Group in front of him, the Straw Hat Grand Fleet under their command, the remnants of the Roger Pirates represented by Rayleigh, the Marines represented by Garp and the ‘Runaway King’, the Revolutionary Army represented by ‘Sweat King’ and Sabo, and other various large and small forces…

Holy crap, upon closer inspection, Su Luan realized that Monkey D. Luffy had quite a lot of people backing him up.

Not to mention that he was also the destined Sun God of this world.

One could only say that to get by in this world, you needed connections and background.

Su Luan suddenly remembered those fanfiction protagonists from his previous life who transmigrated into One Piece to be Monkey D. Luffy’s nannies.

With so many nannies, did he really need another one?
