Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Straw Hat is also famous in the world.

William knew this. They were both from East Blue. William knew about the life of such a ‘legendary figure’ in East Blue.

Moreover, he linked Crocodile’s arrest to Straw Hat’s bounty of 100 million and confirmed that Straw Hat defeated Crocodile. After that, he made a big fuss on Judicial Island and broke into the War Of The Best with Impel Down prisoners and defeated Doflamingo! He made a big fuss about Charlotte Lingling and escaped from her!

As the grandson of Garp and the son of Dorag, he is known as the ‘Fifth Emperor’ and his name has shaken the world.

There are rumors that he went to the Country of Peace and caused a scene under the alliance of Kaido and Charlotte Lingling, but now it seems that why did he take the pirate ship of the Beast Pirates?

Joining Kaido? No, that’s not right. In that case, there should be news. After all, this is the fifth emperor.

“Did you rob the ship?”

William murmured. He was so smart that he immediately guessed such a thing.

“Hey, I see a familiar face.”

Mont Blanc stared at the blue fatty on the ship and said in surprise, “Why is Jinbe on that ship? He also joined the Beast Pirates?”

“It’s not the Beast Pirates Ship…”

Just as William had guessed, after seeing the configuration of the ship, Elmyra also guessed the truth of the matter. “He probably joined the Straw Hats. They took the ship.”

“A Shichibukai has joined the Straw Hat Gang?!” Mont Blanc said in disbelief, “Even if he is the fifth emperor, isn’t his influence too great?!”

“Who knows, but either way, this is a problem.” Elmira checked her pistol and looked at William. “Do you want to touch it?”

“Fishman Karate: Gun Wave!”

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a loud shout suddenly came from the sea, and a water column like a laser shot straight in this direction.

**TIP**

In response, William only reached out his hand and his arm turned into a violent steam column, directly colliding with the gun wave. The steam and the water column combined and made an explosive sound, scattering raindrops in the air.

On the sea, Jinbe’s head popped out.

“Of course!”

William smiled and his whole body showed strong self-confidence. “The fifth emperor happens to be the opponent I use to experiment. Let me see where his strength lies! Elmira, prepare the field for them!”

“Understood.”

Elmyra nodded, picked up Den Den Mushi, dialed the phone, and said, “Let go of the deck and form a combat field.”

Jinbe jumped into the sea as soon as he got rid of the steam. He also saw the man’s arm turning into steam and was slightly shocked. “Nature? There doesn’t seem to be such an existence under Kaido. Who is it?”

Then, he saw a few ships behind the ship surpass the ship and lean forward. After sailing a certain distance, they stopped and formed a circle that only revealed the front and back gaps. The decks of these ships suddenly extended at this moment, supported by the ships, forming a huge circular deck.

The ship at the rear approached and blocked the gap at the rear. Most of the pirates on the ship walked down from the middle and surrounded the deck, forming a circle. These people stopped there and did not move. They just looked at them quietly.

“Wow, so cool!!”

Luffy, Usopp, and Choba’s eyes lit up. “What is this? Has it changed shape? It’s amazing!!”

“This is… an invitation?”

Jinbe froze and thought for a moment, then jumped away from the sea and landed on their own ship.

“Luffy, they are inviting us. Do you want to go?”

Luffy looked at the round battle deck for a while and grinned. He bumped his fists and said firmly, “Of course!!”

Zoro smiled and said, “I am invited, of course I have to go!”

Sanji silently smoked a cigarette and did not speak, but the battle awareness in his eyes was strong.

The others also smiled and gradually walked behind Luffy and lined up.

Luffy pointed to the front and shouted, “Little ones, we rushed over!”

“Oh!!!!”

The ship approached and took the initiative to embed itself into the only gap left by the circle.

“Coming.”

Elmira was already standing on the deck. When she saw the ship embedding itself, a trace of seriousness flashed in her eyes.

Mont Blanc rubbed his palms together, the desire to fight strong in his eyes.

Swire played with his dagger, but looking at the frequency, he was a little excited.

William took a deep breath and suppressed his desire to fight this person immediately.

Fifth Emperor, Monki D. Luffy!

He is famous and everyone knows him. Now I can finally see him in person!

A figure suddenly fell from the bow of the ship and firmly appeared on the round deck. The figure wore a straw hat and looked up at everyone. He suddenly took a breath and shouted:

“I am Luffy! I am the man who will become Pirate King!!!”

These words were deafening and for a moment, the rather noisy environment was suppressed, making it silent.

Elmira, Mont Blanc, Swire: “…”

William was stunned on the spot and stared at the boy for a long time. After a long time, he slowly said through his teeth, “Are you kidding me, boy!!”

Pirate King?!

Yes, everyone has such a dream. Being a pirate is the ultimate ambition.

But! But!!

Why did he say it so easily!

The famous pirates on the sea, those terrible pirates, all want to be the Pirate King, Yonkō (Four Emperors), Shichibukai (Seven Warlords of the Sea), and those famous silver medalists all want to be the Pirate King.

The World Government and Marines regard One Piece as a taboo and spare no effort to attack all pirates.

It was a sacred word that represented a huge ambition.

But, but how can a little brat like you say such a thing openly?!

It’s fine if you’re a fledgling brat, but you’re known as the Fifth Emperor. Why would you say such childish words?

That kind of ambition is not something that can be achieved easily!

Even he, William, is only a pirate. If he wants to become a Pirate King, he has to become a pirate first. Everything has to be done step by step.

“Who are you insulting, brat!”

William was extremely angry at this moment. He shouted at Luffy, “One Piece is not something that a little kid like you can easily say and be!”

The fifth emperor?

This kind of speech?!

The image that gained great fame and shocked the sea suddenly broke in William’s heart.

This was more like a little kid who had just learned how to walk and suddenly said to a strong man, “I can fight ten of you alone, I mean what I say!”

This is an insult!

This is blasphemy!
