Pirates: I'm in the East Sea helping King Luffy

"Teacher Buggy, please allow Nami to be my navigator."

Luffy immediately turned his attention to Luo Li.

In response, Luo Li directly solved the problem from the root and took back Nami's combat uniform.

The reason why Luffy was interested in Nami was because she could transform. If she lost her ability to transform, Nami's attraction to him would only be as a navigator.

"This transformation tool is mine. Even if she becomes your partner, she can't take this power with her."

Sure enough, Luffy's attention was diverted. He stared at the battle suit in Luo Li's hand, which had turned back into a can, and looked eager to try.

In this regard, Luo Li had another magic weapon to divert his attention.

"Are you looking for a straw hat?"

After hearing the clue about the hat, Luffy immediately looked away from the can and looked up at Luo Li. His expression became serious and he asked

"Could it be that... you know where the hat is?"

Luo Li touched his chin:"I heard that there will be an auction in Rogue Town recently. Among the items to be auctioned are the straw hat of the Four Emperors Red Hair Shanks, and the famous sword Wado Ichimonji, one of the twenty-one great swords."

Not only Luffy was attracted, but even Zoro looked over.

"You mean... Rogue Town?"

"Yes, it is the town of Rogue where the Pirate King Roger was executed. If you don't leave quickly, you will miss the auction."

Luffy didn't care about Nami anymore after hearing this, and called Zoro to leave in a hurry.

Just when Nami was relieved and thought she had gotten rid of this annoying guy, Luffy's voice came from a long distance.

"Hey Nami, I will come back to find you. When the time comes, you must agree to become my navigator."

Nami stumbled and almost fell, picked up a stone on the ground and threw it at Luffy.

"Get lost! I hope you will die in the sea tomorrow."

Under Luffy's urging, Usopp could only sail to Rogue Town. Looking at the ship in the distance, Smoker suddenly turned his head to look at Luo Li, squinting and asking

"There will be an auction in Rogue Town. How come I, a naval colonel stationed in Rogue Town, don't know about it?"

"How could they inform your navy about their underground auction? Luo Li said nonsense without changing his expression.

Smoker did not say anything, just staring at Luo Li, as if trying to find out something wrong with his face.

Luo Li did not avoid it, and smiled at him.

After a long time, Smoker looked away and turned to walk towards his tricycle, but Luo Li stopped him.

""Wait, Colonel Smoker, I want to talk to you about something."

Smoker looked back in confusion:"What is it?"

Luo Li made a gesture of invitation.

""Can I have a word with you?"

Smoker held a cigar in his mouth and stared intently, as if trying to see through Luo Li's plan. After more than ten seconds, he coldly uttered two words.

"Lead the way!"

The two walked all the way to the seaside away from the crowd, and Luo Li said with emotion facing the sea.

"The sea may seem peaceful on the surface, but anyone who has dived knows that it is actually dark underneath, with dangerous undercurrents."

Smoker looked over again. He could tell that Luo Li was referring to the navy. But he didn't like beating around the bush.

"Just say what you think!"

"What I mean is that you navy people always shout about justice, but some of you are darker than anyone else when it comes to doing things."

Luo Li said this without hesitation.

Smoker was powerless to refute, because Cocosia Village was a ready-made example. Without the protection of Colonel Mouse, the Dragon Pirates would never have been able to run rampant for eight years.

"As far as I know, it seems that Captain Smoker was expelled to the East China Sea because he couldn't stand the darkness of the navy."

"Are you investigating me?"Smoker exudes a dangerous aura.

"Do you need to investigate this? The navy soldiers under your command all know it. Just ask anyone and you will know everything clearly."

Smoker:...

Are you so famous?

"I know that Colonel Smoker hates those people, but he is powerless to change the status quo. I have a plan that may help Colonel Smoker."

Smoker frowned. He was not a fool and knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch. But this did not stop him from listening to what this man was going to say.

"A famous person in my hometown named Shimura Danzo once said that if you want to fight against darkness, you must first throw yourself into darkness. If you want a sapling to grow into a towering tree in the sun, the roots trapped in darkness underground must be deeply rooted in the soil.

The Navy is this towering tree, but the roots underneath have rotted. If Mr. Smoker wants the Navy to become what you want, he must first let this tree grow new roots!"
