Chapter 280 - Chapter 279: Luffy: Naruto, be my nakama?

"So that's how it is, Nami, hurry and pay."

Luffy shook his head, urging the beautiful orange-haired girl, then turned and said, "You really are a good person."

Meeting for the first time, willing to help someone just by chance.

He truly was a good person.

"Hahahaha, I'm not that good, I just don't want anyone to suffer too great a loss over such a small matter."

Naruto scratched his head, a bit embarrassed by such direct praise, and casually asked, "By the way, are you noble players?"

There was no Ninja Village symbol.

Moreover, the orange-haired girl and the woman holding a book, who looked like a scholar, didn't seem like ninjas, nor were they like ordinary commoners.

That could only mean they were nobles.

"We're not those noble guys."

Luffy remembered the nobles in the Pirate World, who were all arrogant and rude, treating commoners as nothing important.

He frowned instantly; he didn't want to be like those guys.

So he explained, "My name is Monkey D. Luffy, I'm the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates. We are pirates, and also Adventurers. I'm the man who will become the Pirate King Adventurer!"

After breaking free from the shackles of Nika's will,

Luffy yearned for great adventures across countless worlds. He wanted to not only become the freest Pirate King in the Pirate World, but also the Adventurer King of all the myriad worlds.

"Pirates, are you thieves?"

This time it was Naruto's turn to be surprised.

Their brief interaction made him feel that these people didn't seem like bad guys. Besides, why would anyone openly admit to being a bad guy?

There were also pirates in the Ninja World,

who roamed the waters near the Hidden Mist Village. They were all Wandering Ninjas and samurai who had gathered together, making a living by plundering commoners' supplies. They were a group of people who were not accepted and were despised.

"That's right, we are pirates and Adventurers."

Speaking of his dream, Luffy excitedly put his arm around Naruto's shoulder and laughed loudly, "I will become the Pirate King Adventurer! Only the freest person can hold that title."

"The freest pirate?"

Naruto's heart sank.

What an ambitious guy, he even wanted to freely plunder commoners. He would absolutely not allow such an excessive thing.

Although he thought this, it was very strange.

He didn't sense any evil aura from the Straw Hat, or even from his companions.

"He's clearly saying the most evil things,"

Naruto complained internally.

Before becoming a Reincarnation Game player, he could sense and distinguish the aura on others, whether it was evil or righteous.

This ability was very weak at first,

but later, through game exchanges and mastering Sage Mode and Nine-Tails Mode, this ability to sense malice over a wide range was greatly enhanced.

Finally,

he purchased a [Light of Baptism] from the game store, directly changing his class to a [Templar Knight] who controlled light combat aura, which maxed out his malice sensing ability.

In his perception,

the Straw Hat's heart was even purer and more transparent than his own. How could such a person be a pirate?

"If I'm not mistaken, you and we are not from the same world, are we?"

Robin, with the clearest mind,

had already noticed the mismatched conversation between the two and spoke up, "In our Pirate World, while there are many pirates who commit all sorts of evil, there are also some crews who set sail to pursue their dreams. Although they are called pirates, they are now Adventurers."

The implication was that the Straw Hat Pirates were not an evil faction.

"It's like that!?"

Naruto was silent at first, his last worries disappearing, then his eyes sparkled as he patted his chest and said, "My name is Naruto Uzumaki, my profession is a ninja, and my favorite food is ramen."

He paused here,

and slightly raised his voice, as if not wanting to be outdone by Luffy, he loudly declared, "My dream is to become Hokage! The Hokage is the guardian deity of the Ninja Village, an existence acknowledged and admired by everyone!"

"Hahahaha, what an interesting dream!"

Coincidentally,

Luffy also had the ability to discern good and evil, much like Roger's ability to hear the Voice of All Things.

Perhaps this was the standard for hot-blooded shonen protagonists.

The two met for the first time,

but their gazes were tightly linked, feeling as if they had met too late and wished they could sleep side by side that very night.

"Naruto, be my nakama?"

Luffy said with a wide grin, "Come with us to the Otherworld to adventure and hunt monsters!"

Having entered the city,

the Straw Hat Pirates crew, walking on the wide street, were already used to hearing Luffy's words.

Luffy's dream of setting sail was not only to become the Pirate King, but also to find all sorts of companions.

Now, with a ninja he had never seen before suddenly appearing,

he naturally couldn't resist wanting to invite him onto the ship.

Naruto shook his head and refused, "Sorry, although it sounds interesting, I want to protect my village."

Luffy wasn't deterred by the refusal and excitedly said, "That's a shame. So, can you breathe fire?"

Naruto scratched his head sheepishly, "I'm a Wind Release ninja, but I should still be able to do the most basic Great Fireball."

"Really?"

Chopper's eyes lit up, and he said, "What about shuriken? Can you still throw shuriken!?"

"That's a Ninja School course! My grades back then were top of the class!"

Naruto was a bit embarrassed at first, but the more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he started to brag.

Suddenly,

a cold voice came from behind him, "Is that so? You were top of the class, so I was the dead last?"

Sasuke, dressed in black and carrying a black sword bag,

interrupted Naruto's bragging and said, "I told you to exchange the monster remains for supplies, and I didn't expect you to be slacking off."

"I wasn't slacking off! I was just meeting new friends, and I almost forgot!"

Naruto explained, his face flushed. Being caught bragging by someone who knew the truth made him very embarrassed.

He quickly changed the subject and said to Luffy and the others, "This is Sasuke Uchiha, he's my nakama. We are both ninjas from Konoha."

"Hmph."

Sasuke looked at Naruto coldly, especially when he saw him linking arms with Luffy, and asked, "Did I come at a bad time?"

He really was a social butterfly; he could even meet new friends just by exchanging supplies.

"No, you came at exactly the right time!"

Naruto didn't notice his best friend's gaze and laughed as he pulled Sasuke over, introducing him, "This is Luffy, they are players from the Pirate World, and there's Zoro, Sanji…"

After Sasuke appeared,

Zoro's gaze fell on his back, or more accurately, on the sword in the black sword bag.

If he judged correctly,

the quality of that sword bag was at least a purple item.

A sword protected within such a high-quality sword bag was definitely not simple.

Naruto's friend, this ninja named Sasuke, should be a swordsman like himself.

"Sasuke Uchiha."

Sasuke voluntarily stated his name,

his gaze also scrutinizing the green-haired man.

Three-sword style?

The quality of each sword was not low, and the sharp aura emanating from him indicated a very pure swordsman.

"Roronoa Zoro!"

Zoro also smiled, revealing his gleaming white teeth,

as if he had found a worthy opponent.
