Belial, Tregear, new members of the Straw Hat Pirates

"Aren't we supposed to go together?" Luffy asked, puzzled.

"What are you thinking?" Tregear said. "Are you afraid others won't know if so many of us go together? Besides, we're going to Wano Country, so we need to split up."

"Also, Belial and I discussed it, and we decided to split up. One of us will take people to Wano Country, and the other will go to rescue Sanji."

"I see. Then I won't choose, I'll go!" Luffy said.

“I’m going too,” Nami said resolutely. “I failed to protect Sanji before, so I have to go this time!” Suddenly, Nami changed the subject, “The treasure of Fishman Island is still there.”

“…” Belial and Tregear couldn’t help but pat their heads.

"Me too! Me too!" Chopper exclaimed, bouncing around.

“Me too,” Brooke added, stepping forward.

"Then I'll go rescue Sanji," Belial said. "And I'm going to teach that bastard Big Mom a lesson!"

"Then the rest of you should go to Wano Country."

"Ok."

“Speaking of which,” Tregear said, looking at Kin’emon and the others, “we’ve been discussing this for so long, don’t you have anything to say, retainers of the Kozuki clan?”

"Hey, what do you mean?"

“I’ll just get straight to the point,” Belial said. “I’ve seen Momonosuke’s memories before, and I know exactly where you came from and how you got here.”

"Why?"

“Because you’ve been hiding something from us,” Tregear said. “Whether Momonosuke is your son or your lord, you’ve already given yourselves away.”

"So, you should also tell us about the Kozuki clan and Kaido of the Beasts."

Seeing Kin'emon's terrified expression, Nekomamushi sighed and said, "Let me explain. These Poneglyphs were created by Momonosuke's ancestors, but they were lost in the generation of Momonosuke and the others' fathers."

"Because!" Kin'emon shouted.

"Lord Oden has been executed! Executed by the Shogun of Wano Country and the pirate Kaido!"

"So what is Wano Country like now?" Tregear asked.

Next, Kin'emon explained the situation in Wano Country to everyone:

The shogun of Wano Country, Kurozumi Orochi, usurped power and ruled Wano Country together with Kaido of the Beasts.

"I beg you gentlemen to lend us a hand! Although we have the help of the Mink Tribe, we are still too weak!" Kin'emon cried out.

"Although I feel bad asking for your help again, I still hope that you can lend us a hand!"

"Isn't that perfect?" Usopp laughed excitedly. "It's on the way anyway, and we're going to fight Kaido sooner or later."

"Wait!" Luffy suddenly exclaimed, "I refuse!"

"Huh?" Not only Kin'emon, but everyone else looked at Luffy with great confusion. Logically, Luffy wouldn't refuse in this situation, so why this time...?

Luffy ran up to Momonosuke, who was crying loudly, and said with a displeased look, "What are you doing? Aren't you the admiral of these powerful guys? Say something!"

"Is all you can do is cry?!"

Luffy's shouts echoed in the room. Nami was about to lash out when Belial stopped her, saying, "Stay here and don't bother them."

"I will defeat Kaido!" Momonosuke shouted. "I want to defeat Kaido! I want to protect my family, my people, and I want to become stronger!"

Upon hearing this, Kin'emon and the others couldn't help but shed tears. "Lord Momonosuke, you are so kind!"

"Alright, in that case, our new pirate alliance is complete!" Luffy shouted excitedly. "Let's defeat Kaido together!"

"Yay!" Kin'emon and the Straw Hat crew screamed upon hearing this, cheering and shouting with joy.

Belial looked at Momonosuke and muttered with dissatisfaction, "This kid isn't even a fraction as good as Geed."

"Ged?"

"It's nothing, just a silly kid."

……

"Achoo!" Geed sneezed, and Taiga walked over and asked, "What's wrong, Geed? Did you catch a cold?"

"It's nothing, I'm probably just a little tired from the long journey."

"That's perfect, let's go rest on that island up ahead."

……

"Alright, in that case, our division of labor will be like this."

"Belial, Luffy, Nami, Chopper, Brook, and Law, go rescue Sanji."

"The rest of us—Robin, Usopp, Franky, Kin'emon, and the others—are going to Wano Country," Tregear said.

"Okay, it's settled then!"

"Then you two discuss it first, I'll go check on the ship." After saying that, Torregia walked out of the tunnel, flew into the sky, and disappeared.

"What is Torregia going to do?"

Belial said, "It seems like Torregia is going to give you some new equipment."

Upon hearing this, everyone exclaimed in surprise, "Really? Will Tregear make us a transformation device?"

"What are you thinking about?"

Suddenly, Belial's expression changed. "Wait, what's that sound?"

At that moment, Tregear sent a message: "Jack the Drought" of the Beasts Pirates has arrived."

Inuarashi and Nekomamushi were evacuating people when suddenly Belial showed a pained expression, experiencing a ringing in his ears.

Luffy and Momonosuke did the same, desperately covering their ears: "It's so noisy, so noisy, what's that sound? It's so noisy!"

On the Thousand Sunny, Torregia leaned against the wall, covering his ears, but he could still hear the strange sound.

Despite his discomfort, Torregia used the terminal to scan and discovered that it was a brainwave pattern, seemingly conveying some kind of message to them.

"Om~"

Another wave of intense discomfort washed over them, and then they vaguely heard some clear words:

"Hurry up, give me orders!"

"Who are you!" Belial shouted. "What do you want?"

"We heard a sound, but we don't know who it is?" Luffy said in anguish.

Upon hearing this, Inuarashi and the others were extremely shocked. "Lord Oden and Gol D. Roger were the same."

"Roger?"

"I know who he is!" Toregia said through the communication device. "It's Zunimassa!"

“He seems to be saying something,” Belial said. “A long, long time ago, I made a mistake and was punished to walk here. Now I beg you to allow me to fight!”

"But what should we do?"

"Forget about them!" Beria shouted. "Zaneosaur, give them a good beating!"

Before the words were even finished, everyone felt the earth tremble. Zunesha raised its massive trunk and destroyed Jack's fleet. Zou Island then returned to peace.

"finished?"

“It’s over.” Toregia walked over carrying a red box. “Just now, Zunesha used its trunk to knock Jack and those guys flying. I don’t know if they’re dead or not.”

"Then why can we hear these sounds, but others can't?" Luffy asked.

Torregia said, "It's not a sound, but a special kind of brainwave that only certain people can receive. I'm not sure why we can receive it."

"Hey Torregia, what's this?" Everyone pointed at the red box in Torregia's hand.

"This is the equipment I made for you. It should be of some help to you." After saying that, Toregia tapped on the red box.

Suddenly the red box opened, and a white thing suddenly swelled up and turned into a chubby white thing with long arms, short legs, and a small head.

"what is this?"

"Wow, so cute!" Nami couldn't help but shout, and even Robin, who was usually very reserved, showed visible excitement on her face.

The white dumpling said to everyone, "Hello, I'm Big White, your personal health consultant."

"This is Baymax," Torregia said. "It's a healthcare robot."

Everyone gathered around Baymax, and Nami couldn't help but poke him, discovering that Baymax's body was very soft, like a limp creature.

"So soft!" Nami hugged Baymax, and Robin hugged him back, their faces filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"You've created a walking machine?" Belial couldn't help but say.

“He’s not just soft, he’s also a doctor.” Toregia said to Baymax, “Baymax, scan these people.”

"Ok."

A green scanning beam shot out from Big White's eyes, scanning the crowd.

Then a display screen appeared on Big White's chest, showing everyone's information:

“You are all healthy.” Suddenly, Big White walked towards Carrot and looked at Carrot’s head, which was injured by a stone.

"Your head is swollen. The suspected causes are a beating, a blow from an object, or a fall. Which one is it for you?"

After a moment's thought, Carrot said, "I was hit by a rock just now."

Big White said, "Being hit by a rock is normal swelling and you need to reduce it. I will use Five Pine Swelling and Pain Relief Tincture on you." After saying that, Big White raised his hand and sprayed a little spray on Carrot's head.

"Wait!" Chopper shouted, "We need to check if Carrot is allergic to Five Pine Soothing Tincture first."

Da Bai said, "She is not allergic to Wusong Swelling and Pain Relief Tincture. What causes her to have a mild allergic reaction is peanuts."

Suddenly, Carrot exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, it doesn't hurt anymore!"

Are you satisfied with my service?

"Very satisfied!" Carrot hugged Baymax's soft body. "Thank you, Baymax."

Torregia walked to the side, took out his terminal and did something while saying, "I designed more than 10,000 medical programs on Big White, and he can quickly make a treatment plan."

Upon hearing this, Chopper's excited mood suddenly turned somber, and he said with tears streaming down his face, "Eh? Does that mean, Tregear, you don't want me anymore? Are you going to replace me with Baymax?"

"Pfft!"

Seeing Chopper's expression, Tregear couldn't help but laugh. He stroked Chopper's head and said, "What are you thinking about, little guy? I was just worried that you might be in danger, so I specially created them to help you."

"And he's not just a physical care robot, he's also a psychological care robot," Tregear said, looking at Robin and Nami who were clinging to Baymax.

"what does it mean?"

"For example, if you have anything that makes you unhappy, he will help you. He can also scan you and detect your psychological state and physical characteristics."

"Come on, Baymax, scan me," Luffy said as he approached Baymax.

Then Big White scanned Luffy.

“You are in good health, but you have a scar on your chest. Based on the surface examination of the scar, it was probably an injury that occurred about two years ago.”

Wow, that's amazing!

"Your body contains a lot of fat and protein, and according to the test results, you probably really enjoy eating meat."

"That's right, that's right."

"According to Tregear's settings, you are a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user, the Gum-Gum Fruit, and you are very positive and optimistic, with a great interest in anything related to adventure."

"You hate cowardice, but you don't hate your companion Usopp. Can you tell me why?"

Without even thinking, Luffy replied, "Because he's a crewmate. I would never hate a crewmate."

Big White said, "Judging from what you said, you value your partners and friends very much. You're great."

"Thank you."
