Join the red-haired pirates at the beginning! Lord Wuhan!

"Shanks! Shanks is a stingy man! He doesn't want to take me to sea together, so what's the matter? Sir, you are really annoying, and you will always use various excuses to stall me."

Luffy said in confusion.

"You'll understand later, Luffy."

"Obviously it's my dream to go to sea! Shanks and I are no different from you, so why can't I go!"

"Of course you can go, but now is not the time, Luffy, you are not strong enough."

"I am very strong. You have never seen my fists. My fists are like pistols!"

As he spoke, Luffy punched the Bai Ye tree next to him with a "pop" sound!

The trees didn't move at all, but "hiss~" it was him who was in pain, and his hand immediately swelled up.

Luffy grabbed his hands on the trees angrily and began to spin in circles impatiently.

Due to the rubber fruit's ability, his hands continued to extend, surrounding the trees in circles.

It’s really like “drawing the ground as a prison”.

Wu Kuan looked at him amusedly.

"Luffy, don't worry, you can definitely go to sea."

"Why, do you mean you can take me to sea with you? Hahahaha, I have already planned it, I can hide in the barrel on the ship! Shanks can't find it yet, and you can secretly bring me food , I will show up again after the voyage officially starts! By then, even if Shanks doesn’t want to, there will be nothing he can do, I’m really a genius!”

Luffy smiled proudly with his hands on his hips, showing his smooth teeth shining in the sun.

"I'll tell Shanks your idea."

"Ah!! Bastard! You are the real bastard! Villain!"

His laughter stopped suddenly, and he pointed angrily at Wuhan and said.

Luffy, who was only six years old, was simple and naive, and could only think about sailing on the sea. The heat in his eyes was simply impossible to ignore.

"Hey, Luffy, believe me, you just need to keep growing. Sailing on the sea will happen sooner or later, so don't be too anxious. You need to prepare for everything. If you are not prepared enough, you will definitely die on the sea. So work hard on yourself, Shanks and I will be waiting for you at sea."

"Really?" Luffy looked at Muzan with tears in his eyes.

"Of course it's true. Also, wipe your nose... Hey! Don't smear it on me!!"

Muzan slapped his forehead, Luffy hugged his thigh, and rubbed all the snot on him while crying.

"The little devil is really troublesome!" He was helpless.

"But... But when will I be as powerful as Shanks? Shanks also has Lucky, Jesus, and you. With such a strong team, where can I find these? partner."

Luffy said dejectedly.

Hey, Luffy, what you said is too Versailles.

Did you know that more than ten years later, the first crew member you recruited will be Roronoa Zoro, the most charming character in the voyage!

That's Soda!

And Sanji, Chopper, Nami.

These are the best crews in the world!

I really don't know the blessing in the blessing.

Wuhan bent down, the flower umbrella covered both him and Luffy in the shadow, and the two looked at each other.

Muzan gently wiped away Luffy's tears and said, "Luffy, let me tell you a story. Are you willing to listen to it?"

"Um······"

"Kate and Kurt are a pair of brothers who live on the island. They play ball on the beach every day. Their favorite thing is to throw the ball high into the air and then catch it steadily."

"Suddenly one day, Kate had a question, why does the ball always fall down no matter how high it flies, instead of always going higher? Do you know why?"

"Hey~ why?"

"Kurt didn't know the answer either, so the two of them went to ask their mother."

"Mom said, it's because, at the bottom of the ground, there lives a giant. The giant's name is gravity. Why does the ball fall? Why doesn't it go up? Why do the leaves fall instead of flying to the sky? Children jump When you get up, you always fall to the ground. That's because the giant is so powerful. He attracts everything and uses his powerful power to make everything in the world move closer to him."

"Wow~ Then this giant is too powerful." Luffy's eyes were sparkling.

"So, you can also become a giant. If you are strong enough, you can also have powerful partners like the red-haired pirates. They will all succumb to your charm, fall in love with your strength, and move closer to you."

"Luffy, don't worry. Your future is the stars and the sea. What you have to do now is to make yourself stronger and stronger, and then sail. Otherwise, how can your future partners come closer to you?"

After Muzan finished speaking, he looked at Luffy who was thoughtful.

What a miracle, Luffy actually used his brain to think seriously!

This is really a miracle of the Red Earth Continent.

"I understand! I will be as strong as Shanks! No! Even stronger than Shanks!"

Muzan took out a ribbon from his pocket and tied it on Luffy's arm.

The ribbon is red and stained with Wu Mei's blood. It is his special thing called "blood knot".

This was specially prepared for Luffy.

Shanks will later give Luffy a straw hat that symbolizes supreme meaning, and this blood knot is the only thing Muzan can give Luffy.

"Luffy, when you go to the Grand Line in the future, you will encounter countless dangers. Some are old monsters who have been practicing for decades. You can't imagine how powerful they are. When you encounter dangers that you cannot solve and endanger your own life, Tear this ribbon, and no matter where I am, I will rush to your side."

"Ok!"

Luffy nodded vigorously.

Muzan knows very well how unbearable the difficulties and obstacles Luffy will encounter in the future will be, and how many times his life will be endangered.

I hope this ribbon can become one of the means for him to save his life.

In two days, Wu Mei will follow Shanks to the Grand Line, and the chapter in the East China Sea will soon come to an end.

These days, this is the only chance to get along with Luffy like this.

That's why he told Luffy those words.

It's hard to move forward, and it's even harder to move forward without hesitation. Although Luffy's grandfather is Navy Marshal Garp, his father is the leader of the rebel army, Long, and his best friend is Shanks, these people are still on his perilous sea journey. How much help has been provided.

almost none.

It's all about Luffy and his friends going through mountains of swords and seas of fire.

Don't worry, Luffy, no matter what time, I am willing to be your strongest support.

Behind you, there will never be a shortage of people who silently support you.

Take this path without hesitation.

Be that giant thing called "gravity."

Come on, Luffy!
