Grand Line.
The biggest event in recent days should be the Sabaody Incident.
It is said that Straw Hat Luffy killed three World Nobles and was subsequently captured by Navy Headquarters Admiral Kizaru. Undoubtedly, the news of World Nobles being killed is bound to cause a stir!
In addition, the second big news is that Moonlight Moriah, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, was dismissed and replaced by a pirate named Marshall D. Teach.
These two events are undoubtedly headline material!
However, today's newspaper headline is anything but normal.
Because the entire page of the newspaper was used to list a series of names and photos, this is the list for the public execution by the World Government and the Navy.
Captain of the Whitebeard Pirates 2nd Squad, Fire Fist Ace
Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, Sabo
Captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Straw Hat Luffy
…
Captain of the Red Hair Pirates, Shanks (former member of the Roger Pirates)
Crocus (former member of the Roger Pirates)
Douglas Bullet (former member of the Roger Pirates)
Clown Buggy (former member of the Roger Pirates)
Above.
This list covers most of the Roger Pirates members that the World Government and the Navy could find, with the most noteworthy one being the son of Pirate King Gol D. Roger.
As for the location of the public execution…
It was ultimately decided to be at Navy Headquarters Marinford, and the execution was set a week later, with the interim period prepared for the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates, Revolutionary Army, and Red Hair Pirates.
This list…
Will undoubtedly be put on the front page.
Because this list will become the true fuse of a world war, a truly significant event determining the fate of the world, almost everyone will be shocked by the names on this list.
In the Enies Lobby dungeon.
Monkey D. Luffy, wearing Seastone, walked slowly in, followed by the very person escorting him, his grandfather, Navy Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp.
This is a mission that Garp volunteered to undertake.
For an old man, to see a white-haired man send off a black-haired one is a great tragedy, especially since this time Garp has to personally send away the three young ones he had high hopes for.
Monkey D. Garp was somewhat silent.
Because before bringing Luffy into the Enies Lobby dungeon, Garp already knew that Luffy would also be sent to the execution platform, to be executed together with Ace and Sabo.
These little guys who grew up together…
Are now going to die together at Marinford?
Monkey D. Luffy's face looked somewhat weak and powerless, not because he was lamenting his fate, but because Luffy hadn't eaten much lately.
Eating is the most important thing in life.
However, whenever Luffy was eating heartily without a care on the escort ship, Garp couldn't help but hit him to the ground with a punch…
This grandson eats happily…
Without caring that his grandfather beside him couldn't eat!
Now Luffy's mental state was visibly not good, but a voice suddenly revitalized him: "Hey, Luffy, why are you here too!"
"Shanks!"
Luffy's face immediately brightened, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Red-haired Shanks in a cell, and he spoke with a cheerful grin: "Hee hee hee hee… Almost forgot, Shanks, you were caught by them a long time ago!"
"…"
Shanks showed a slight smile on his face, not caring about his predicament at all, and asked with a light laugh: "Did you see Benn Beckman? How are they?"
"Hmm, pretty good."
Luffy nodded, continuing with a grin: "Your new ship is even bigger than our new ship! Thanks a lot to Beckman for lending us a large sum of money, I'll definitely pay it back after I find the Grand Treasure!"
"Good!"
Shanks laughed and nodded.
Originally, Shanks hoped that when Luffy became a great pirate well-known across the world, they would meet formally, and the promised token, the Straw Hat, would be returned…
But unexpectedly…
They hadn't met at sea…
But had now encountered each other in the dungeon of Enies Lobby.
This feeling is really strange!
Bang!
Standing beside Karp smashed Luffy's head with a punch, gave Shanks a cold look, and said in a deep voice: "Luffy, if it wasn't for you listening to Red Hair's incitement, you wouldn't have ended up in the same situation as him!"
"Grandpa, I decided to go out to sea and be a pirate on my own!"
Luffy looked stubbornly up at Garp, punched the ground, and said in a deep voice: "As long as I do it, it doesn't matter even if I die for it!"
"But you're about to…"
Just as Garp was about to say more, someone in the cell next door suddenly lunged at the bars: "Straw Hat Luffy! You bastard!"
"Ha, Bucky!"
The stern expression on Luffy's face immediately dissipated, and he couldn't help grinning widely, scratching his head as he looked at the person in another cell.
It was Clown Buggy.
Clown Buggy was captured by Smoker.
Because Clown Buggy, like Shanks, was once an apprentice on the Pirate King's ship, he was also sent to the Enies Lobby dungeon, and his cell was next to Shanks'.
To be honest…
Clown Buggy's arrival cheered Shanks up quite a bit.
No matter what, the two of them were once childhood playmates, and it's not easy to reunite now, even though Buggy is a bit too noisy!
Of course…
Fortunately, there's also someone here who can handle Buggy.
Just as Buggy was about to lash out at Luffy, an old man's deep voice interrupted him: "Buggy, don't be so noisy, you're giving me a headache…"
"..."
Buggy's voice suddenly stopped.
It was none other than their former ship doctor from the Roger Pirates, Crocus.
"Ha!"
Luffy's smile grew even bigger, and he couldn't help but laugh: "Crocus… Crocus… how come you're here too? How's Laboon?"
Luffy turned to look at Crocus, and without waiting for a reply, he continued cheerfully: "Oh, right, I've already found Brook, and now he's our ship's musician!"
As the Straw Hat Pirates were heading to the Shampodi Archipelago, Luffy encountered Moonlight Moriah's domain and defeated this Seven Warlords of the Sea, which resulted in Yakushi Kabuto having a reason to abolish him, leaving a spot open for Marshall D. Teach…
On Moonlight Moriah's territory, Luffy also met Brook, the captain of the Lunba Pirates, who Laboon had once followed, but Brook was now reduced to just a skeleton…
Crocus walked to the side of the cell, looking at the grinning Luffy, and couldn't help but smile: "Ha, seems like you've had quite a journey, little Straw Hat…"
"Hehehehehe…"
Luffy laughed, scratching his head.
Though their journey stopped abruptly at the Shampodi Archipelago, the Straw Hat Pirates had experienced quite a lot…
Luffy looked around the cells at the familiar faces and smiled: "Didn't expect to meet so many familiar people here; it feels pretty nice, actually…"
"This idiot…"
Buggy couldn't help but show a trace of anger on his face.
However, upon hearing Luffy's words, Red-haired Shanks and Crocus burst into laughter, clearly, Monkey D. Luffy's arrival had brought some vitality to the dungeon.
"Alright."
Garp looked at Luffy and a bunch of people chatting and interrupted them with a deep voice: "Luffy, go and meet with Ace and Sabo, those two brats! Your cells are all together, each one of you is a handful…"
"Ace and Sabo are here too!"
Luffy rubbed his cheeks, feeling suddenly invigorated, his eyes shone brightly as he called out loudly into the dungeon: "Hey, Ace, Sabo, I'm here to find you!"
Even though their reunion happened in the dungeon of Enies Lobby, they couldn't hide the joy in their hearts, nothing could be more joyful than a brotherly reunion!
Just as Garp was leaving with Luffy, Red-haired Shanks suddenly called out to Garp, his face serious as he asked: "Mr. Garp, even if Luffy was arrested, shouldn't he be sent to Impel Down, not be locked up here in Enies Lobby?"
Garp furrowed his brows, slowly revealing a trace of anger: "Because Luffy killed three pieces of trash…"
"Heavenly Celestial Dragon?"
Shanks understood immediately.
There were indeed too many trash within the Heavenly Celestial Dragon.
Luffy dug his ear, showing a bit of confusion and regret: "I just scared them a little, and they ended up frightened to death…"
In fact…
At the Shampodi Archipelago, those Heavenly Celestial Dragons were knocked unconscious by Luffy's outburst of Supreme King Haki in his rage, but someone did a little trick on them.
In the end…
The Heavenly Celestial Dragons died in this conflict.
And Yakushi Kabuto, who was in charge of investigating their deaths, personally turned it into a closed case, and afterward, every CP Agent responsible for protecting the Heavenly Celestial Dragons disappeared.
According to Yakushi Kabuto…
They committed themselves to a burial for the Heavenly Celestial Dragons.
Shanks glanced at Luffy, then at Garp, leaning against the cell wall, he nodded slowly and said: "I understand."
They didn't continue the conversation after that.
Once Garp and Luffy left, a voice came from another cell: "Hey, Shanks, is that kid the one you chose? Roger's straw hat is on his head!"
"Yeah…"
Shanks nodded, laughing as he replied: "How is it, Bullet, you think Luffy's pretty good too, don't you?"
"Hmph, just okay…"
The man in the cell still seemed dissatisfied but suddenly remarked: "We've all been sent here, hasn't that old guy Rayleigh come in?"
"I don't know…"
Shanks frowned.
They were isolated in the dungeon and had no news from the outside world.
Shakky, who should have been sent to Enies Lobby with Luffy and the others, was detained separately by Yakushi Kabuto.
Because Shakky…
Knew too much!
Monkey D. Garp and Monkey D. Luffy continued towards the depths of the cell, surrounded by coffins, chilling anyone's heart.
Luffy observed all of this, curiously looking at each coffin: "Huh? Why are these things here?"
"Don't ask so much!"
Garp punched Luffy on the head, speaking angrily: "Because I don't know either!"
"…If you don't know, you just don't know…"
Luffy scratched his head, continuing to look around at the coffins in the dungeon.
"Hey, Luffy!"
Voices of Ace and Sabo came from deep within the dungeon.
"Ace! Sabo!"
Luffy joyfully hurried forward a few steps.
Even though the meeting place wasn't ideal, they couldn't help but smile, as the three brothers were finally reunited under the dim dungeon light.
They were completely unaware…
The entire sea was already in turmoil.
