One Piece: Arrival on Sky Island at the beginning

The sky is slightly bright.

When the bell rang in the cabin, a man named Rob Lucci woke up from the crowded four-person cabin. While the other three were still sleeping soundly, he put on his sailor uniform, exposed his strong muscles, and finished washing. Then, he walked out of the crew room and came to the deck.

Under the early morning light, what appeared on the sea was a huge cargo ship that could only be seen in the North Sea.

How big is this cargo ship? Even the largest warship in the navy today is dwarfed by this cargo ship.

Human beings are as small as ants on this ship.

It is impossible for such a cargo ship to appear on the Grand Line.

Because the goods on this cargo ship come from the entire North Sea, with a total value of about 10 billion berries, they will be distributed at the port of Jinwu Island and then sent to other sea areas for sale through various methods.

Only a stable climate like the North Sea can support the safe operation of cargo ships.

If this were the Grand Line...

Looking around, it was not just Rob Lucci who came to the deck and started busy, but also other crew members.

There are not many crew members, mainly humans and fishmen, working in their respective positions, among which fishmen are the most popular crew members.

The reason is also very simple. The fishmen's powerful strength and ability to travel freely in the sea make them more suitable than humans to become the crew of this kind of cargo ship.

Of course, not all humans are inferior to fishmen. On this freighter, or in the Beihai National Voyage Cargo Company to which this freighter belongs, the human Rob Lucci is an absolute star, and he is not as powerful as He is no weaker than a fishman, and his swimming speed in the water can even rival that of a fishman.

"Oh, Lucci, you're awake!"

The person who greeted Lu Qi was a hairtail fish-man named Rat, who came from Fish-Man Island.

Lu Qi looked cold and said slowly.

"Well, how are things going today?"

Latte was not surprised by Lu Qi's cold look, because the crew on the entire freighter knew that Rob Lu Qi was a very cold guy, but it was not difficult to talk. Just like now, as long as you say hello, he will say hello. will respond to you.

"Not bad, Gudong Gudong!"

Drinking early in the morning was not a good habit, but Ratt didn't care about that.

With this round trip, he could earn nearly one million beli, and he could easily support his seven children.

"The weather is very stable. If everything goes well, we can arrive in port tomorrow."

At this time, another man with a long nose also came over and said hello.

"Lucci, Rat, good morning!"

"Good morning! Kaku!"

This boy named Kaku is much easier to communicate with than Lu Qi, and he even takes the initiative to say hello.

The three of them were working together and chatting about heaven.

"Hey, have you heard?"

"what!?"

"Of course it was the former admiral named Zefa who joined the Rainbow Nation and established some kind of Ministry of Justice."

This topic instantly attracted the attention of Lu Qi and Kaku.

"What's wrong? Did something interesting happen?"

"Ah, you don't know yet. The Rainbow Kingdom seems to be serious this time. As you know, the Corleone Express Company in the West Sea was completely destroyed by two disciples led by Zefa two days ago. Corleone No one in the family is out of tune.”

When Latte finished speaking, both Lu Qi and Kaku were shocked.

However, both of them controlled it very well.

Kaku returned to normal and said with a teasing tone.

"How is it possible? Isn't the Corleone family one of the top five freight companies in the West Sea?"

Rat complained while tightening the screws.

"Yes, I heard that he was arrested for espionage. Among the people they arrested were several spies from the World Government, called CP9 or something like that."

Lu Qi and Kaku immediately tightened the screws in their hands. They looked at each other and asked the fishman.

"How did you know...."

Rat raised his head, looked around, and said with a lewd smile on his face.

"I peeped on the TV when I went to the main control room last night."

"I see!"

Lu Qi and Kaku both breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Rat was still chattering.

"You said, these people in the World Government are too hateful. We have finally lived a good life, but they always want to take away everything from us. Damn it, if I meet those CP people, I will never We will let them go.”

Lu Qi and Kaku ignored Rat, lowered their heads and worked seriously and attentively.

Until the crisp sound of high heels sounded.

All the crew members' eyes lit up, with lewd smiles, as they looked at the beautiful woman who appeared in front of everyone, dressed like a secretary, with a bulging front and back.

"Wow, it's Miss Khalifa, she's so beautiful!"

"If I could marry such a wife, I would be willing to do so even if I die from exhaustion!"

"Hehe, I think you said you were exhausted in bed!"

"Hahaha, be careful of being squeezed dry!"

Regarding the obscene words of the crew members, Kalifa seemed not to notice anything. She raised the gold-rimmed glasses on the tip of her nose and spoke.

"Lucci, Kaku, come with me, the captain wants to see you!"

The captain of this freighter is a short old man with rosacea who fits the captain's appearance very well.

After seeing Lu Qi and Kaku, he said seriously.

"I received the message from Khalifa yesterday. Do you want to leave Beihai National Voyage Cargo Company? Tell me why?"

It was Kaku who answered.

"We want to try it!"

"Try it!? Oh, I see. Do you also want to participate in that martial arts conference?"

The captain suddenly figured it out, looked at Lu Qi and Kaku, and said with some pity.

"Young people want to move up. Logically speaking, I shouldn't stop you old man, but I'm really optimistic about you. As long as you keep doing it, my position as captain will sooner or later belong to you two. When the time comes... ..”

Lu Qi interrupted directly.

"Thank you very much Captain, but our minds have been made up."

"Then there's nothing we can do. Khalifa can go through the formalities for them and give them half a year's more salary!"

"Okay, leave it to me! Please follow me!"

"Thank you Captain."

As Kalifa left the control room with Lucci and Kaku, the three came to Kalifa's office.

The moment you walked in, it was as if you were a different person.

The aura of the three of them became sinister. Lu Qi unceremoniously sat in the seat that should belong to Kalifa, looked at Kalifa from top to bottom and asked.

"What happened over there in the West Sea!"

Kaku and Kalifa sat on chairs nearby, and Kalifa spoke coldly.

"Gabra and Natsuri were caught..."

"Idiot...didn't they try to run away?"

"It was Zefa who did it himself..."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Qi's expression froze and he clenched his fists fiercely and said.

"I know the navy is unreliable... So, what about us, are there any risks of being exposed..."

"Not sure, but it should be safe for the time being. We haven't done any drastic actions after infiltrating for so many years, so there shouldn't be any suspicion on us."

Kaku next to him listened and said in a low tone.

"Then you have to be careful. As a former admiral of the navy, Zefa knows the CP very well, and we must prevent Gabra and Nuri from betraying us."

"I understand, I will find a way to find out the news."

Lu Qi was also frowning, but finally calmed down and said.

"Then why did the higher-ups ask us to cancel the latent mission? Is there any new order?"

Seeing this, Kalifa looked at the two of them and said slowly.

"This is the main reason why I'm looking for you this time, and it's a direct order from those five adults!"

"Eh!!!"

This made both Lu Qi and Kaku stunned.

As for who those five adults are, I don’t even want to use them.

And Kalifa said word for word.

"The orders of those five adults are: Not only must you participate in this martial arts tournament this time, but you must also do everything you can to win the Devil Fruit..."
