章 129: Luffy's Childhood Sweetheart
"If I am not wrong, we might be in deep trouble now." Robin broke the silence with a horrific tone. Even she never felt their troubles would be this deep.
At first, she thought she would be the reason for Kuzan and Admirals to attack Luffy but it seems like things are a bit different.
"Nope, we still have a chance. Don't forget our strength has grown significantly. There is no reason for us to fear those admirals. But, that being said, we can't underestimate them."
Zoro spoke as he clenched his sword. His Haki and physical strength have grown significantly.
If he was exponentially behind Luffy and Liam before, now he was approaching them, especially Liam.
Luffy took the Grade A medicine making his growth similar to that of Zoro's. But, Liam was different.
He took Grade B medicine. So now, his physical strength and Haki amount have reached the level of Liam but the only difference would be the level of Haki.
Of course, Zoro had no idea just how broken this difference in level could make. Luffy and Liam hadn't shared with them about the difference in strength between levels of Haki.
Liam only mentioned how to train an advanced version of Haki.
"No matter what, we will kick their ass." Luffy smashed his fist into his palm and spoke with confidence.
Right now, he felt like he could fight Aokiji on an equal footing.
"Luffy, we can't underestimate Admirals. Although there is still a gap between the Four Emperors and Admirals, this gap is what makes Emperors the strongest force in the New World."
"Unless you can learn Advance Conqueror, it won't be easy to win against admiral. They have been trained in the Navy from a small age. They have trained their Haki in several battles and they have a lot of combat experience."
"We are actually crushed in every single term in the battle."
Liam spoke with a serious tone and suddenly, Nami, Chopper, and Usopp started shivering in fear.
"Should we run away? We don't have to face them, right?" Sanji spoke with a serious. Although he wouldn't run away when his friends were in danger, if he could avoid trouble, he would.
That's why, unlike Zoro and Luffy, he gave Liam this suggestion.
"We can't. This is a battle that will instantly change our status in the sea. Besides, as I said before, we need a constant flow of money so if we need to get Water Seven under our flag."
Liam shook his head and spoke.
"Liam is right. Let's just fight them." Luffy excitedly clenched his fist and shouted.
"Well, just in case, we need to call the support. Usopp, Robin, I will leave this task to you two. Sanji, your job is to use your Observation Haki to keep an eye on the entire island, most importantly, Robin."
"That order Sengoku gave. It was a way to keep Luffy safe from the hands of the World Government. That means the World Government could send more CP agents to assassinate Robin."
Liam turned his head toward Robin, Usopp, and Sanji as he gave his orders.
"Don't worry, Liam! Miss Robin, your Knight will keep you safe." Sanji once again began to swirl around Robin with a perverted expression.
"Thank you, Mr. Chef!" Robin chuckled and answered.
"Of course, you two don't have to stay in the Ship all the time. After you finish contacting our Fleet, you should visit the Water Seven. Chopper, Vivi, I will leave Luffy and Zoro in your hands."
"Make sure they don't get lost." Liam chuckled as he said the last sentence.
"Liam, I don't get lost." Luffy immediately refuted and continued saying.
"Zoro is the road idiot."
"Bastard Luffy!" Zoro roared at Luffy but his face was turning red as the crew burst into laughter.
"What about you?" Vivi curiously looked at Liam and asked.
"Well, although Nami and I have confirmed our relationship, we haven't enjoyed the life of a couple. So, I plan to spend a few days together with Nami."
Liam answered without any hesitation.
Except for Luffy and Chopper who didn't know anything about love, everyone else looked at them with strange expressions.
Nami was surprised by Liam's blunt words. She couldn't help but blush fiercely.
"Can't you keep it down?" She shouted at Liam and tried to punch him but her fist touched his chest as if she was giving a massage.
"Hahaha! There is no need to hide such an obvious thing from the crew. Besides, don't you know Luffy already has a childhood sweetheart?"
Liam joked as he stared at Luffy to see any changes in his expression.
But there was nothing except confusion in his face.
"What?"
Everyone shouted at the same time. They looked at their idiot captain for a moment and shook their heads at the same time.
"Impossible! It is impossible for Luffy to be in love."
"Indeed, Luffy doesn't understand Love between man and woman." Liam nodded his head.
"Then, don't distract us with such an obvious lie." Everyone shouted at the same time. Even Robin's expression wasn't good.
"But I am telling the truth. Luffy has a childhood sweetheart. It's just that he doesn't understand the love between man and woman or rather, he is the complete opposite of Sanji." Liam shrugged his shoulders and answered.
"Really?"
Nami's eyes sparkled as she ran in front of Luffy and asked.
"Captain, who is your childhood sweetheart? Can we meet her?"
"I don't understand what do you mean?" Luffy scratched his head and asked.
Nami turned her head toward Liam hoping that she would get the answer.
"Luffy, did you forget about the girl that you met when you were young?" Liam deeply smiled and asked.
"Girl when I was young?" Luffy thought for a moment but he couldn't remember her for a long time. But suddenly, he thought of his days with Red Hair Pirates and one specific girl appeared in his mind.
"Uta! Are you talking about Uta? Liam, do you know about Uta?"
Luffy ran in front of Liam and shook his shoulders almost giving Liam a headache.
"Stop! Stop! Stop shaking me." Liam pushed Luffy away.
"Bastard Luffy, why do you have a childhood sweetheart?" Sanji burst into tears and bit his shirt as he cursed Luffy.
"No matter how you look at it, I find it hard to believe that Luffy has a childhood sweetheart." Vivi couldn't help but speak.
"You are wrong, Vivi. I think Captain is quite charming." Robin smirked and spoke. Although this charm wasn't exactly that kind of charm, she wasn't talking nonsense.
She could feel that Luffy was truly different from others.
"Well, Luffy has his own charm. But, unfortunately, he doesn't have the intentions or mind about Love otherwise he would've made a lot of girls fall for him."
"After all, whether it is a man or a woman, they all ask for sincerity." Liam nodded his head and supported Robin's viewpoint.
"Liam, you still haven't told me about Uta. How is she? Do you know where is she?" Luffy was a bit anxious as he asked. He didn't even care about the discussion that the crew had.
"Well, I do know about her. She is currently living in Elegia. It was a country of music." Liam answered.
"Elegia? I have heard of this country before." Robin suddenly remembered something and turned silent while giving a glance to Luffy.
Luffy despite being an idiot in most situations could easily see through her mind and ask.
"Robin, do you know anything more about Elegia?"
Hearing his question, Robin didn't answer instead looked at Liam. She knew that Liam definitely knew about the incident.
She didn't want to break her captain's spirit so she decided to put this task to Liam.
"Well Luffy, this situation is a bit hard to explain. Actually, it is a secret that only one crew and one man knows except for me obviously."
Liam sighed and continued.
"It was said that Red Haired Pirates destroyed this kingdom and left Uta there."
"Impossible!" Luffy instantly denied his words.
"Indeed! Red Haired didn't do it instead they managed to defeat the creature that did it. But, they took the blame because if they didn't. Then, Uta would live in depression and self-blame, and even a life similar to that of Robin."
"Because the creature that destroyed the Elegia was awakened from the music of Uta's devil fruit."
Liam explained with a deep sigh.
Luffy's eyes widened for a moment and finally, he took a deep breath.
"Is that why Shanks left Uta?"
Liam nodded his head.
"Shank left Uta and took the blame for destroying the country. This caused Uta to live in hatred for pirates. If we want to meet her, you and I have to reach Four Emperor Level."
"Uta might listen to this story and even believe it but her obsession is too deep. I am afraid she will definitely release the Demon that destroyed the Elegia."
"And, if we want to defeat it, we must reach Four Emperor Level."
Hearing his words, Luffy's expression got serious as he clenched his fist.
"Advance Conqueror, I will master it."
