"How did you know?"
The mayor's face was grim, on the verge of going crazy.
These young people in front of him were all new faces.
There was no reason for them to know him.
"Mayor, you're very dishonest. You're all Bounty Hunters who hunt pirates, yet you insist on deceiving us in this way!"
"Actually, I noticed something was off about you a long time ago."
Usopp, always quick to speak after the fact, immediately pointed at the grim-faced mayor and cursed.
He looked smug:
"Just surrender obediently, or the consequences will be dire."
If Usopp wasn't standing next to Fire Thunder at this moment, this statement might have been more convincing.
Zoro, on the other hand, didn't waste any words.
Wado Ichimonji was already drawn.
The snow-white blade reflected the gradually sinister faces of the residents opposite them.
"There are quite a lot of these guys. Let's first consider how to deal with them."
The originally amiable residents instantly transformed into ferocious Bounty Hunters after being exposed.
It's important to know that the entire town had a million people.
Even a million small fry would be quite difficult to clear out.
Soon, Luffy and his group were heavily surrounded by the town residents.
They were encircled so tightly that not even a drop of water could pass through.
"What? Do you want to fight?"
Seeing this situation, Luffy showed no fear.
He just smiled and rolled up his sleeves.
As he scanned everyone in front of him, he unexpectedly discovered the duo who had escaped from their Going Merry.
Suddenly, Luffy seemed to understand something.
"So you're all in this together. No wonder you two kept leading us here."
Now things were finally clear.
"In that case, I have no qualms. I'm going to send all of you flying!!!"
If your strength is greater than the opponent's, you can be a Bounty Hunter.
But if the opponent's strength is greater than yours, then you can only be the hunted.
Reno calmly watched the surrounding Pirate Hunters, who had all pulled out their hidden weapons.
These guys were just small fry, with no combat power whatsoever.
Zoro alone could take care of all of them.
As for the remaining few cadres.
Reno's gaze swept over the Frog Prince and the blue-haired woman who had escaped from the Going Merry earlier, as well as the nun who had exposed her muscular physique, and finally, the town mayor.
However, in Reno's eyes, they were all minor characters.
They held no interest for him.
If it were their boss, that would be slightly more interesting.
Reno wasn't interested.
But Luffy's side had already started to move.
He was going to punch all these people who had deceived him flying.
"Gum-Gum Arm!!!"
Luffy charged out.
Zoro and Sanji followed closely.
This was also their first battle after entering the Grand Line.
Before, Reno alone had resolved all crises.
This time, they wanted to have a good fight too.
"Aren't you two going to join the fun?"
Reno looked at Usopp, who was already acting as a cheerleader for the three and was standing next to Fire Thunder, directing Zoro.
