Chapitre 116: 116. Give An Order, Joy Boy
"That Golden Lion guy came out again, but Luffy's crew is getting stronger and stronger.
On the Sabaody Archipelago, Rayleigh is holding a newspaper and looking at it with a smile. He saw Zoro and Sanji's rising bounties and Jinbei's soaring bounty.
Rayleigh should be the only one in this world, other than the Straw Hat Pirates, who knows about Luffy's special ability that can strengthen others. So he understands that as long as they continue to fight, Luffy and his friends will keep getting stronger until they surpass everything and completely change the world.
Raftel, the One Piece, I wonder what kind of expressions Luffy and the others will have when they land on that island. I'm really looking forward to it.
Rayleigh took a sip of his wine and smiled.
Calm Belt, Amazon Lily.
"Sister, look quickly. It's that Straw Hat kid again," Sandersonia said as she came in with a newspaper.
Sandersonia has a lot of affection for Luffy. After all, this man dared to directly attack the Celestial Dragons. For the three sisters who hated the Celestial Dragons very much, Luffy's actions undoubtedly increased their favour for him.
"Is it him again? Unknowingly, he has already stood at the pinnacle of the world," Hancock said, sitting on Salome. She gently lifted her long hair and flicked it behind her. Looking at the newspaper in Sandersonia's hands, a strange emotion appeared on her usually cold face.
The first time she noticed the Straw Hat was after the Sabaody incident. For Boa Hancock, the man who dared to punch the world's noble Celestial Dragons directly maximized his favorability in her eyes. During their brief meeting in the Summit War, she saw how powerful, casual, and willful he was, which stirred an inexplicable emotion within her. She didn't know what this emotion was. It seemed like the fermentation of good feelings.
This kind of man who can face the Marine and the World Government is indeed worthy of admiration. After the Sabaody incident and the Summit War, Hancock has been paying attention to Luffy's movements. She saw him declare war on the Big Mom Pirates and defeat Big Mom. She saw him declare war on the Cross Guild and defeat Douglas Bullet. This man, like during the Summit War, rushed to the forefront of the battlefield recklessly, full of vigour and heroic willfulness.
Just a few dozen days after entering the New World, he became the new emperor. The "Fifth Emperor" was not named by the newspapers and the World Government before, but the real emperor was recognized by the entire pirate world.
"What a powerful man," Hancock sighed in admiration but didn't say much. After all, she and Luffy are just strangers now.
"Prepare hot water. I'm ready to take a bath," Hancock stood up from Salome with a curvaceous and alluring figure that even a woman would admire and walked towards the palace bathroom.
"Sister?" Sandersonia looked at the back of Hancock and stuck out her tongue like a snake. Isn't that what my sister said? Was all the information about the Straw Hat boy presented? Why is she showing such a cold expression now?
Shaking her head, although she always felt that her sister had become a bit strange since the Summit War, Sandersonia didn't think much about it.
"Could it be love, Snake Princess," Granny Nyon, holding a snake stick, looked at Hancock's back and thought worriedly.
Alabasta.
"Father, look quickly; there is news about Luffy and the others again," Vivi excitedly rushed in with a newspaper, speaking to King Cobra lying on the bed.
Cobra has been in poor health since the last Crocodile conspiracy and is recuperating. But at this moment, he still looked at Vivi with a smile and took the newspaper from her.
"Luffy and the others have finally come this far, and they are getting closer and closer to the One Piece," Cobra said. Unlike Vivi's excitement, Cobra looked at the newspaper with worry in his eyes.
"What's the matter, father? You don't look very happy," Vivi asked, noticing something wrong.
"No, nothing, I just thought of something else," Cobra said to Vivi with a smile. After Vivi left, Cobra stepped out of bed with a serious face and looked out the window.
"Too fast, Luffy," Cobra thought deeply. The closer they get to the One Piece, the more pressure Luffy and his crew will face from the Marine and World Government. A hundred years of history disappeared in this world 800 years ago, and the reason their Nefertari family did not choose to enter Mariejois. It is because of the Ancient Weapon Pluton of Alabasta, but it is not in Alabasta, and the piece of historical text left in Alabasta. Some things, before Crocodile, Cobra didn't see anything wrong. However, since the Crocodile incident, the king's keen intuition has given him insight into some unusual things. Their Nefertari family doesn't seem to be of the same mind as the World Government. He must figure out the truth recorded in the historical text. The secret of the Nefertari family. It's just a pity that he originally planned to ask the Five Elders at the World Summit two years later, but now, it may be earlier. Because Luffy and his crew grow up too fast. Perhaps in less than two years, Luffy may become the Pirate King. However, how to operate this matter still needs to be thought about carefully.
New World, Dressrosa.
"Fufufufufufu, really capable, Straw Hat Boy, Big Mom, Cross Guild," Doflamingo laughed loudly, holding a copy of the latest newspaper, but the veins on his forehead were already bursting.
"Hey, Dover, what shall we do now?" Trebol said with a worried face.
"Kaido is down, New World is in such a mess, World Government and Marine don't have much power to control the New World, we may not be able to hold on to Dressrosa," Trebol continued. Except for Trebol, all the Donquixote Family cadres present had serious expressions on their faces.
The reason why they were able to occupy Dressrosa before was because they were able to blend in like ducks in the underground world of the New World. Just because Doflamingo is a Shichibukai and Dressrosa is a member country of the World Government. Under such circumstances, coupled with Doflamingo's identity as a former Celestial Dragon and his possession of the unique secrets of the Celestial Dragons, he is able to threaten the World Government and have part of the World Government's power at his disposal.
More recently, the groundwork has been laid with the SMILE production for the Four Emperors Kaido. However, today is different. Although the Summit War has ended, its vibrations are constantly shaking this era. After the Summit War, the rise of the Straw Hat Pirates, the Cross Guild established by the worst criminals released by Blackbeard from Impel Down, plus the appearance of the Golden Lion. In the current New World, the power of pirates has more than doubled compared to the past. The power of the World Government is infinitely compressed. Relying on the power of the Shichibukai they are not enough to deter the current pirates. Not to mention, if they don't stand in line, they will also be cleared out by the new Four Emperors. It has been common sense since ancient times that the new emperor will inevitably set off huge waves in the New World.
Not to mention, with Blackbeard's death, Mihawk and Moria joined the Cross Guild, and Jinbei joined the Straw Hat Pirates. The current Shichibukai system exists only by name. Once the Shichibukai system is completely abolished, then the last vestiges of Dressrosa may be gone.
"Fufufufu, why worry? The worst is the destruction of the world, this disgusting world ruled by scum. Have you forgotten our original purpose? That is to destroy this world created by the Celestial Dragons," Doflamingo said, crossing his feet on the table and laughing maniacally.
"Of course, I haven't forgotten, Kyros. You are our king; make a decision in the face of this turbulent wave of the new era," Trebol replied.
Torrebol showed a disgusting smile, held up his cane, and said frantically. The cadres of the Donquixote Family all looked at Doflamingo.
"So," Doflamingo threw the newspaper on the ground, stood up, and stretched out his hands as if embracing the new era, "In this kingdom, start a war that will sweep the entire world."
"Using the thing we got before, it's enough to destroy the world's key."
"Fufufufufu!"
Doflamingo's crazy laughter echoed in the Palace of Dressrosa like a demon blowing his final horn.

The sea around Dressrosa.
There was a faint mist on the sea.
"It's almost here," Marco stood on the deck of the Thousand Sunny, looking at the life card in his hand.
This is the life card of a former partner kept by the Whitebeard Pirates. Kozuki Oden's life card had been reduced to ashes eighteen years ago, and the life card in Marco's hand belonged to Duke Inuarashi.
Duke Inuarashi and Nekomamushi, who used to be Kozuki Oden's retainers, boarded the Moby Dick and naturally left their life cards.
"It's a pity that Izo stayed in Wano; otherwise, it would have been best for him to bring you here," Marco said. Izo was the only retainer of Kozuki Oden, who remained with the Whitebeard Pirates. However, after the previous Wano battle, he temporarily stayed in Wano, his hometown.
"It is said that the kingdom of the Mink Tribe is a moving kingdom, and there is no Log Pose to it. It can only be found through some special means," Robin said with great interest.
The Mink Tribe's kingdom, Zou, is a kingdom with a very long history that exceeds even the history of the current world government. It is said to have existed for over a thousand years, and it is one of the important bases for archaeologists to study history.
"A kingdom that's always on the move?" Luffy and the others were all attracted by Robin's words.
"Yes, because the Mink Tribe's kingdom is on the back of a giant elephant," Marco said with a smile.
"A country on an elephant's back? What do you mean?" Nami couldn't quite grasp the concept.
"You'll know when you see it," Marco looked at the life card in his hand with a smile, then suddenly raised his head, "Here."
Everyone followed Marco's gaze, and their pupils shrank in shock.
"What is this?" Ace opened his mouth wide, his jaw almost dislocating.
"This is a joke," Nami covered her mouth in surprise.
"So big," the exclamation almost shook the Sunny from the sea.
The huge figure shrouded in the white mist was indescribably enormous. The huge shadow, even the fog, couldn't cover it, but because of the fog, the overall outline of the giant shadow was more clear.
"This is Zou, a giant elephant that has existed for thousands of years. The legendary kingdom of the Mink Tribe is located on the back of this giant elephant. That's where the island of Zou is," Marco explained loudly, his voice full of passion.
The giant elephant Zou is one of the wonders of a pirate's adventure. Such a huge life form makes one admire the wonders of the world.
At this moment, Luffy and the others, after experiencing a huge shock, their eyes shone with excitement, looking at the giant beast in front of them, just like when they first saw the Reverse Mountain and the wonder of Skypiea.
"It's amazing, how tall is this?" Zoro couldn't help but ask.
"Probably more than 20,000 meters," Marco smiled, "Zou's feet are about 10,000 meters below the surface of the sea, and the Mink Tribe's kingdom is about 10,000 meters high."
"Twenty thousand meters?" Everyone's faces showed looks of shock. It was indeed surprising. Just the part exposed above the sea was equivalent to the height of Skypiea. Creatures of this level are much bigger than the biggest Sea Kings and the others have ever seen.
"So, how do we get up there?" Franky raised a question, "It's so high, and there's no sea route. Should we keep the Sunny here?"
"Unfortunately, there is no direct connection to Zou's ocean," Marco shook his head. Unlike Wano, which has an inland sea, Zou does not even have large rivers. The water of the Kingdom of Zou relies on natural rain and the occasional rain of gifts sprayed by the giant elephant.
"Then let me stay and guard the Sunny," Franky suggested.
"No, no, it would be a pity not to visit this legendary island," Robin said.
"But the Sunny," everyone argued.
Suddenly, Nami looked at Luffy. Immediately, everyone seemed to have thought of something and smiled kindly at Luffy.
After a while.
"I'm so tired. You guys are really heavy," Luffy panted, carrying the Sunny on his shoulders. At this moment, he had entered Gear Fifth. The rubber giant in Gear Fifth can reach a height of more than 100 meters. Now, Luffy was nearly 100 meters tall, carrying the Sunny, stepping on the clouds, and flying upwards. Only he could do this. After all, his Gear Fifth flight is not Moonwalk but his own flying ability.
The 39-meter-long Sunny looked small in comparison to Luffy, but it was still very tiring. Gear Fifth consumes a lot of stamina, and the 100-meter-tall body consumes it even faster. In normal battles, Luffy maintains the height of a rubber giant in Gear Fifth at about 20 meters.
"Joy Boy, you're finally here," as Luffy was carrying Sunny into the sky quickly, he suddenly heard an extremely loud voice echoing in his mind.
"Who are you?" Luffy stopped and shouted loudly.
This sound was bigger and deeper than the one he heard in the deep sea near Fishman Island.
It seemed to come from an extremely ancient existence, making the sound of the ages.
"What's the matter, Luffy?" The people on board also noticed Luffy's abnormality.
"Did you not hear a great voice?" Luffy asked suspiciously.
"No, only you suddenly yelled," everyone on board replied.
"Damn it, it's so loud," Luffy said in pain.
That voice was too loud as if it was about to crack his head.
"Joy Boy, eight hundred years, eight hundred years, I have been waiting for your order, and now I have finally waited, your heartbeat like the Drum of Liberation. So, give the order, Joy Boy."
"Stop screaming, stop it for me!" The loud sound made Luffy's head almost explode. He covered his head with one hand and roared loudly.
