Chapter 131 Lu Luo Alliance (Ch 131)

“I’m so hungry!” Kozuki Momonosuke shouted weakly. The hunger made him feel dizzy and even difficult to stand.
He tried hard to recall what happened before, but he couldn’t remember anything. He only remembered that he was caught up in a chaos and came to this strange place.
After Kozuki Momonosuke crawled forward for a distance with difficulty, he finally saw a bright fruit in a glass box in front of him. The fruit looked very tempting, as if it exuded a faint fragrance.
Kozuki Momonosuke’s eyes lit up immediately. He was so excited that he forgot his fatigue and pain and accelerated towards the fruit.
Kozuki Momonosuke finally broke the glass box with great difficulty, stretched out his little hand to grab the fruit tightly, and then couldn’t wait to put it into his mouth. However, at the moment he swallowed the fruit, the expression on his face suddenly froze and turned into a painful look.
“Why does it taste so bad! Help! Kin’emon, where are you? Help!” Kozuki Momonosuke shouted loudly and vomited desperately, trying to spit out the disgusting taste.
He originally thought that the fruit could solve his hunger problem, but he didn’t expect it to be so hard to swallow. Now, not only did he not fill his stomach, but he felt even worse.
At this moment, Kozuki Momonosuke felt extremely desperate. Kin’emon, who he could rely on, was nowhere to be found, and it was pitch black around him. He didn’t know how to get out of this predicament.
At the same time, in the outer waters of Punk Hazard Island, a ship named Sunshine Miles was slowly moving forward. On this ship was the Straw Hat Pirates, who had just finished a fierce battle and were now preparing to head to their next destination.
On the ship, Zoro was exercising alone, wielding three swords in his hands, showing amazing strength; Sanji was busy in the kitchen, preparing delicious food for everyone; and Robin sat quietly aside, reading an ancient book attentively.
Everyone was so focused on their work that no one noticed that Momonosuke Kozuki was going through a life-and-death test in the distance…
Straw Hat Luffy was lying on the floor in boredom, and asked weakly, “So boring! Terraman, where are we going? Aren’t we going to fight Doflamingo?”
“Master Straw Hat, Punk Hazard is the key to defeating Doflamingo.” Trafalgar Law responded patiently.
Since forming an alliance with the Straw Hat Pirates, Trafalgar Law has been investigating Doflamingo’s artificial Devil Fruit base. Due to the hasty alliance, they do not have enough time and resources to fully understand the enemy.
Going directly to Dressrosa to attack Doflamingo, as Straw Hat Luffy suggested, would likely result in failure, so Trafalgar Law decided to explore Punk Hazard first, looking for clues and evidence to ensure they could develop a more effective strategy.
During this time, Trafalgar Law continued to work hard to uncover the secrets behind Doflamingo. He knew the importance of this action because there was only one chance and failure would mean a complete loss of opportunity.
Therefore, he must act cautiously and make full use of every detail to ensure the final victory. As for Straw Hat Luffy, although he is a little impatient, he still chooses to trust Trafalgar Law’s judgment.
After all, Trafalgar Law is an experienced pirate with his own unique wisdom and strategies.
Franky walked up to Trafalgar Law with a serious face, his eyes full of doubts, and asked: “Trafalgar Law, I noticed that you seem to have a special obsession with Doflamingo. Why is that?”
Straw Hat Luffy on the side suddenly became extremely wise, as if he saw through everything, and replied with a smile: “Franky, don’t worry about it!”
After hearing Luffy say this, Franky stopped asking questions, but his heart was still full of questions.
At this time, Trafalgar Law was in great pain. The reason why he was obsessed with Doflamingo was because that bastard Doflamingo was the culprit who killed Terrazzo. He was determined to avenge Terrazzo himself and let him get the punishment he deserved.
At this time, Robin closed the book in his hand and said calmly: “According to our alliance’s plan, we will eventually face off against Kaido, one of the Four Emperors.”
When Nami heard the word “Four Emperors”, her face instantly turned pale as paper, and she said in a trembling voice: “It’s so scary just thinking about it! I’d better go home first…” She turned around and prepared to leave.
At the same time, Usopp and Chopper also showed expressions of fear, and their bodies trembled involuntarily. After all, facing an opponent of the Four Emperors level, anyone would feel great pressure.
The last time they experienced a battle was with Douglas Barrett, and that disastrous defeat still left them with lingering fears.
Of course, despite their fear, they remain steadfast in their decision to support Luffy. No matter how rough the road ahead, they are willing to follow him and fully support him.
At this time, Trafalgar Law stood up and proposed in front of everyone: “We are about to arrive at Punk Hazard Island. By then, we need to split the personnel into two halves, one half will stay on the ship, and the other half will follow me to set foot on this mysterious land.”
Before he finished speaking, Luffy couldn’t wait to shout: “I want to land on the island and never stay on the ship!”
Seeing this, Nami reacted quickly, clapped her hands vigorously, and responded decisively: “No problem, I agree with this arrangement, and Luffy also agrees.”
Just like that, the Straw Hat Pirates’ Thousand Sunny slowly docked on the side of Punk Hazard Island.
The five people who chose to land on Punk Hazard were Straw Hat Luffy, Zoro, Robin, Brook, and Trafalgar Law, while the rest stayed on the Thousand Sunny.
Robin was sweating all over as he walked on the road. He panted and said, “The environment here is really terrible!”
After they had been struggling forward for about half an hour, they suddenly met a man who was dressed in a warrior’s costume and looked very majestic.
“That’s great! We finally met some living people!” When the samurai saw the Straw Hat Pirates, he was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes and he couldn’t help cheering.
Hearing this, Zoro’s face instantly became ferocious and he roared: “You bastard, can you speak properly? What do you mean you met a living person?” His tone was full of anger and dissatisfaction.
Anyway, when hearing about the so-called living people, not only Zoro was unhappy, but Trafalgar Law, Robin, Brook and others were also unhappy. Only Straw Hat Luffy looked silly and indifferent.
Kin’emon also realized that he had said the wrong thing just now, so he quickly changed his words and asked, “I’m sorry, because I have been trapped here for too long, and I was too excited when I first saw you.”
As Kin’emon continued to explain, Straw Hat Luffy and the others finally understood what was going on. However, Kin’emon did not reveal that he was a person who traveled through time from twenty years ago. After all, some things should be hidden.
Straw Hat Luffy jumped up excitedly and shouted: “Yoshi! Then let’s go find Kin’emon’s young master! I think this will be a very interesting thing.”
“Hey, Straw Hat Master, don’t promise people so easily!” Trafalgar Law’s face was dark. He felt that he was really speechless at this moment, as if he was struck by lightning.
Their eyes were on Doflamingo, not these miscellaneous things. Trafalgar Law felt that forming a pirate alliance with Straw Hat Luffy was a big pit. He couldn’t help but secretly regret his original decision, but now that things have come to this, he can only bite the bullet and go on.
Kin’emon said with great gratitude: “Thank you, you are so kind. I will repay you with my best ability later.” He looked at the people in front of him sincerely, his heart full of gratitude towards them.
Trafalgar Law suggested: “It’s hard for us to move forward on this side. Let’s go to the other side and enter the center of Punk Hazard Island.” He frowned, thinking about the next course of action.
“I agree, I’m about to be roasted.” Straw Hat Luffy said, his whole body was so tired that he was constantly smoking. He fanned his hat vigorously, trying to bring himself a little coolness.
Since Luffy has no objection, Zoro, Robin and Brook also have no objection.
So, they returned the same way they came in, except with one more person, Kin’emon. On the way back, everyone walked in silence, hoping to find a solution to the problem as soon as possible.
Half an hour later, the group successfully returned to the Thousand Sunshine.
Nami looked at the people who had returned and asked hurriedly, pointing at Kin’emon, “How is it? Did you find the way in? And who is this person?”
Robin explained with a smile that if Luffy and Zoro were asked to explain it, they might not be able to explain it clearly!
So, the Straw Hat Pirates sailed to the other side of Punk Hazard Island and landed again.
However, when they arrived, they saw a military ship docked at the shore.
Usopp said with a very bad look: “Damn it, why is there a military ship docked here?”
“There’s nothing to be afraid of.” Zoro responded indifferently. If the navy dared to take action, the worst that could happen would be a fight.
Luffy’s idea is the same as Zoro’s. He is not afraid of the navy. If they dare to provoke him, he will teach them a lesson.
Trafalgar Law kept analyzing the pros and cons in his mind, and then he suggested, “How about this, Straw Hat Captain, you take Kin’emon into Punk Hazard first, and I’ll go meet the navy.”
“Traman, how could we possibly abandon you?” Straw Hat Luffy immediately expressed his disagreement and said in a firm tone.
Trafalgar Law raised his hand, signaling Straw Hat Luffy not to worry, and explained: “I am different from you. I am still a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, so it is more appropriate for me to go and get intelligence on the navy. If you go, it will definitely trigger a battle.”
“So that’s how it is!” Robin nodded, indicating that he understood Trafalgar Law’s meaning and agreed with his proposal.
Kin’emon had just joined the team and didn’t quite understand the current situation, but he knew that he should just cooperate throughout the process.
In the end, after some discussion, Straw Hat Luffy decided to adopt Trafalgar Law’s suggestion and split his troops into two groups.
After Trafalgar Law separated from the Straw Hat Pirates, he headed towards the direction of the navy. On the other side, Vice Admiral Smoker led his men to move forward with difficulty on the snow.
A navy soldier couldn’t help but ask Smoker, “Boss Smoker, in such a harsh environment, is there really anyone who can survive here?”
Smoker, a cigar between his lips, replied in a serious tone, “Stop talking nonsense and just follow me.”
However, when they walked forward less than a hundred meters, they suddenly saw a figure appear in front of them.
Smoker took a closer look and immediately frowned. “You are actually one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Trafalgar Law? How did you end up on Punk Hazard Island? You know, this is a place that is forbidden to enter by the World Government.”
Facing Smoker’s question, Trafalgar Law seemed unusually calm. He slowly said, “This question should be answered by you, Marine! What are you doing on Punk Hazard Island?”
Smoker frowned when he heard Trafalgar Law’s question. He realized that there must be something wrong with this guy in front of him, and it was very likely that he was here to intercept them. He took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled the smoke, and his eyes became sharp.
“Hmph, it seems that as one of the Shichibukai, you are secretly doing some shameful things! This is a serious violation of the agreement between the Shichibukai and the World Government. It seems necessary to report this matter to the Marine Headquarters.” Smoker sneered and took a deep puff of his cigar, the cigarette butt flashing with red flames.
Trafalgar Law raised his mouth slightly, revealing a disdainful smile, and said, “Smoker, I advise you to mind your own business, otherwise it will do you no good.”
Smoker’s face darkened, and he stared at Trafalgar Law with a flash of anger in his eyes. However, Trafalgar Law was not intimidated by Smoker’s threat, but laughed provocatively.
“Get out of the way, Trafalgar Law, you should be aware of the consequences of obstructing the navy in the performance of their duties.” Smoker gritted his teeth, his voice low and firm.
Facing Smoker’s warning, Trafalgar Law still stood there, motionless, with no intention of retreating. He crossed his hands in front of his chest, with a contemptuous expression on his face.
Seeing this, Smoker’s anger grew stronger, but he suppressed his emotions, relit a cigar, took a deep puff, and said slowly: “Trafalgar Law, since you insist on not giving way, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”
