Great Voyage: Luffy’s voyage is revealed at the beginning Chapter 085

Eighty-fifth Chapter: New Member of the Straw Hat Pirates

Ling Long embraced the two girls and flew down, slowly landing in the middle of the crowd, chuckling, “Hello everyone, I didn’t expect to meet you on Skypiea.”

Ling Long was indeed curious; he truly wanted to know why the Straw Hat Pirates were able to reach Skypiea.

In the original work, the Straw Hat Pirates could reach Skypiea because they had Nami, a genius navigator, coupled with some luck.

But now, Nami was not with the Straw Hat Pirates, so how could they still reach Skypiea?

Could it be that Karina was also a genius navigator?

Hmm? No, that’s not right. The difficulty of coming to Skypiea might not be as high as imagined.

In the original work, even the small-time villain Bellamy could reach Skypiea. It seems the Knock-Up Stream is not as dangerous as imagined; as long as one masters the technique, it’s still possible to reach it smoothly.

Luffy raised his hand and greeted the three of them with a grin, saying, “Ling Long, what a coincidence, you’re on Skypiea too?”

“Miss Nami~”

Sanji pushed Luffy aside and eagerly approached Nami, exclaiming, “Thank heavens, that we meet again in this paradise ten thousand meters high in the sky, I…”

Sanji hadn’t finished speaking when his gaze was drawn to the stunning beauty beside Nami. Her features were exquisite, with golden hair and blue eyes, and her figure was graceful—a true super beauty.

Breathing in the faint fragrance in the air, Sanji felt like he was about to swoon. This was another lady who was no less beautiful than Miss Nami or Miss Karina.

Sanji swallowed hard, his eyes practically turning into hearts, stammering, “This, this beautiful, young lady, may I ask…”

Ling Long subtly twitched his lips. Sanji hadn’t changed a bit.

Robin glanced at the members of the Straw Hat Pirates, smiling and nodding, “Hello, my name is Aer Veya, and I am Ling Long’s assistant.”

Currently, the entire sea was searching for Nico Robin’s whereabouts, so Robin naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to use her original appearance. Thus, she used the power of the Copy-Copy Fruit to transform into another person.

Since she had transformed into another person, she naturally needed another name. So Robin thought of her mother, Nico Olvia.

Therefore, Robin took her other name as Aer Veya.

Sanji pulled out two roses from somewhere and, with a look of adoration, said to the two women, “Miss Nami, Miss Veya, thank heavens that…”

Nami rolled her eyes, pushed Sanji aside, and said impatiently, “Go play somewhere else, don’t bother me and Veya.”

After speaking, Nami ignored the petrified Sanji, took Robin’s small hand, and quickly walked towards Karina.

Ling Long glanced at the disheartened Sanji and said to Luffy, “This forest is Enel’s territory. Why are you here?”

Luffy narrowed his eyes slightly, his right hand pulling down his straw hat, and said seriously, “I know. Our purpose in coming here is to beat him up.”

Enel not only enslaved the entire Skypiea but also attacked and captured members of the Straw Hat Pirates, which greatly angered Luffy.

Luffy had made up his mind that no matter what, he had to defeat Enel.

“Beat up Enel?”

Ling Long shook his head slightly and said, “Don’t be silly. He’s a Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit user, even harder to deal with than Crocodile.”

“Another Logia-type Devil Fruit user?”

“Rumble-Rumble Fruit?”

“Looks like another troublesome guy. Ling Long, is this Enel stronger than the Shichibukai Crocodile?”

“Troublesome, Logia types are indeed very tricky.”

The members of the Straw Hat Pirates frowned. They were no longer ignorant rookies and understood how powerful Logia-type Devil Fruit users were.

Currently, none of them in the Straw Hat Pirates had learned Armament Haki, so dealing with a Logia-type Devil Fruit user was truly difficult.

Crocodile had put Luffy in life-or-death situations several times, and now they encountered another Logia-type Devil Fruit user. How could they not be worried?

“Actually, Luffy’s Devil Fruit is a natural counter to the Rumble-Rumble Fruit; he’s not afraid of lightning attacks.”

At this point, Ling Long paused, then continued, “However, Luffy doesn’t have Armament Haki, so defeating Enel is almost impossible.”

Ling Long didn’t think Luffy could defeat Enel. In Ling Long’s view, the reason Luffy was able to defeat Enel in the original work was entirely due to plot armor.

In the original work, Enel could clearly elementalize, but when fighting Luffy, he completely forgot this ability and was honestly beaten by Luffy.

This was clearly plot armor.

Or perhaps, Enel was affected by the legendary intelligence-lowering halo?

“Huh?”

Usopp instantly looked desperate. Even Luffy wasn’t a match, so they still had to find Enel?

Wasn’t that just going to their deaths?

Usopp swallowed hard and said with a trembling voice, “Luffy, let’s leave Skypiea, shall we?”

Luffy frowned, not answering Usopp’s words, while Zoro tightly gripped the hilt of the sword at his waist, filled with unwillingness.

However, no matter how unwilling, it was useless. Currently, their Straw Hat Pirates truly had no way to deal with Logia-type Devil Fruit users.

“Clap~”

Sanji lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and then asked Ling Long, “Ling Long, is there absolutely no hope?”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Ling Long with anticipation, even the four girls Nami who were chatting nearby also looked over.

Ling Long pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, giving a definitive answer: “Yes.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up slightly, staring intently at Ling Long, waiting for his next words.

Ling Long smiled faintly and said, “I have a pair of Seastone handcuffs on my ship…”

“Seastone handcuffs?”

“That’s right, Devil Fruit users are all afraid of Seastone…”

“But even with Seastone handcuffs, it would be difficult to get close to Enel, right?”

“But at least there’s hope, isn’t there?”

“If Sanji or Zoro holds the handcuffs, there should be a chance to subdue Enel.”

Luffy secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although it would be difficult to subdue Enel with Seastone handcuffs, it was at least a feasible method.

Luffy’s face returned to a smile, saying, “Ling Long, I haven’t introduced you yet. This is our new member of the Straw Hat Pirates. Her name is Mikita, the Kilo-Kilo Fruit user.”

Ling Long nodded to Mikita, who was holding an umbrella. Ling Long had already seen Mikita when he used Observation Haki earlier, so he wasn’t surprised by her presence.

Ling Long had seen this Mikita in the original work; she was from Baroque Works, code-named Miss Valentine.

“Luffy, if I’m not mistaken, Miss Mikita, well, she should be Miss Valentine, isn’t she from Baroque Works?”
