From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

The only thing is that guy Sakaski. I heard that whenever he has time, he will go to visit these little guys, of course, mainly Ace.

Therefore, Diarmait had not seen these little guys for a while.

At this moment, in the living area port of Marineford, Diarmait had a relieved smile on his face as he watched these little guys helping Bellmère and the direction of the story that had actually changed.

It was good. Looking at these little guys, he felt happy for some unknown reason.

It seemed that there were not many goods left on the ship, so Bell-mère leaned against the wooden piles of the dock, lit a cigarette happily, exhaled a puff of smoke, and watched Ace and Luffy scramble to see who could carry more goods off the ship, and watched Nami and Nojiko fanning the flames on the side, while he was lazy at the same time.

I have to say, the reason why she can become good friends with Tina, the little smoker, is probably because they both have the same hobby, right?

Just then, a sound came over here.

"You're such a big boss, yet you still come to the dock to unload the goods yourself." Diarmuid said with a smile as he walked over with Kuzan, Gion, and Tina.

When Nami saw Diarmait, her eyes lit up and she ran towards him happily with her arms open.

Diarmait also liked this cute little girl very much. He picked up Nami who rushed over to him and asked with a smile: "How are you doing recently?" "I have passed the second-level navigator examination of the Navy Headquarters. Isn't it amazing!?" Nami said excitedly.

"You are really a little genius!" Diarmait praised with a smile.

After a brief pause, Diarmait asked again, "Why? Are you considering joining the navy lately?"

"Alas, there's nothing I can do. Luffy and Ace are both idiots. If we let them join the navy like this, they might get lost at sea one day. I, as their older sister, must help them... It's really worrying." Nami shook her head pretending to be old-fashioned.

In other words, Ace has already run to the ship to unload the cargo, otherwise he would definitely have to argue with Nami, after all, he is older than Nami.

After chatting with Nami for a while, Diarmait looked at Bell-mère who was chatting with Tina, Kuzan and Gion.

"Bell, will it be okay for you if we sail away?" Diarmait asked.

"What's the delay? You're not going anywhere, just to the Sabaody Archipelago. You can make several round trips a day. After unloading this shipload of cargo, it will be enough for the tavern to use for three to five days. It doesn't matter." Bell-mère waved his hand. After a brief pause, Bell-mère smiled again and said, "Besides, you and Mr. Garp are the big bosses, not me."

This is just a joke. Two years ago, Diarmait and Garp each gave some shares of the tavern to Belle-mare. In fact, Diarmait now only keeps a little bit as a souvenir, and Garp is about the same. Belle-mare is the biggest owner of the tavern.

Don't talk about business operations or whether this is appropriate or not.

After all, Diarmait didn't take it seriously at all. He just gave it to me. It was just a tavern...

But Bell-mère always distributed the dividends according to the original division. In her words, Diarmait and Cap had already helped her so much, and she felt it was inappropriate to continue like this.

She should keep the 'shares' that the two of them forced upon her and distribute them to Ace, Luffy, Nami, and Nojiko later.

While Diarmait and the others were standing here chatting, Ace also carried the last box of goods down from the ship, piled them together, and then competed with Luffy to see who did more work. Of course, Ace won in the end.

Then, Ace ran to the adults and looked at Nami and Nojigo who were held by Gion and Diarmuid respectively. He felt a little envious, and then he climbed onto Kuzan's long legs, leaving Kuzan confused.

Luffy wanted to climb up along Tina's legs, but Tina didn't tolerate this brat and kicked Luffy away. Then Luffy was very brave and secretly kicked Tina's shoes in revenge. Then, he was chased by Tina on the dock, and she grabbed him, pressed him on the legs and beat him up on the butt...

This scene made everyone laugh, and no one thought that Tina was bullying or neglecting Luffy or anything, because everyone knew that Tina was usually the best to Luffy, and often bought this guy a lot of strange snacks. The relationship between the two was very good.

Of course, on weekdays, Luffy, the brat, was often beaten up by Tina.

Ace grabbed Kuzan's shoulders, then looked at Diarmait and said, "Uncle Diarmait, thank you!" Judging from his expression, he looked very serious.

Diarmait was stunned for a moment, then he remembered what was going on and asked with a smile: "How is it? Are you satisfied with your ability?" "Satisfied!" Ace nodded happily, then stretched out his little hand and released a burst of flames.

That's right, this guy is already a natural-type user of the Flame-Flame Fruit. After Diarmuid brought the Flame-Flame Fruit back, he handed it to Sakaski, who immediately gave it to Ace.

Later, when Sakaski mentioned this, he looked so pleased, as if Ace was his own son, as if he had found his inheritance...

This made Diarmuid's scalp tingle.

"Work hard and don't let us down." Diarmait said with a smile.

At this moment, Luffy, who had been beaten up by Tina, ran back and said, "It's not fair, Uncle Diarmait, I also want to be a power user and can't fall too far behind Ace!" "Hahahaha, you also want to be a power user? What kind of power do you want?" Diarmait laughed.

Luffy looked at Ace, thought of Sakaski, then looked at Diarmait, and said firmly: "I want superhuman abilities like you, Uncle Diarmait!!!"

Chapter 291 Rayleigh: Damn, isn’t this the admiral of the navy?

The Sabaody Archipelago is part of the Holy Land. Marijoa is an autonomous island of the Celestial Dragons, and many people refer to it as the 'Backyard of the Celestial Dragons'.

This is because this is an autonomous island belonging to the Celestial Dragons.

That's why, even though the island is large and is an archipelago, there is no unified management organization, and there is not even a 'chief' for an autonomous island like the Seven Water City.

The entire Chabao Archipelago is in a state of disorganization, so you don't need to pay taxes when doing business here because no one collects taxes from you.

The Tianlong people probably have never cared about or thought about these things.

Of course, everything has its pros and cons. The business environment on the Sabaody Archipelago seems to be very good. There is no need to pay taxes. It is also one of the core islands connecting the front and back sections of the Grand Line and is very prosperous.

But the problem is that it is very dangerous for you to survive on this island. First of all, there will be a large number of pirates who will continuously land on the Sabaody Archipelago and go in and out of the New World. These villains are the ones who will resort to knives and guns if they disagree with you.

Afterwards, the island was raided several times. Although the Navy Headquarters was cracking down on slave traders, there were still people who took risks.

Finally, there are the Celestial Dragons who pop up here from time to time. They do things as they please. If they shoot you here, it might be for some absurd reason like your hairstyle doesn't suit their aesthetics. But unfortunately, you won't have any chance to complain even if you're shot to death.

It was precisely because of all the chaos on the Sabaody Archipelago that the entire Sabaody Archipelago was strangely divided into two areas.

One is considered the white world, which is relatively normal, while the other is called the 'lawless zone'.

There are several ports in both areas, but the ports in the illegal areas mostly provide services to black market traders, pirates, and slave traders.

The ship carrying Diarmait and his crew came from Marineford and was a legitimate merchant ship with complete documents. Naturally, there was no need for them to go to illegal areas.

Soon, it docked at a regular port in the Sabaody Archipelago.

As he walked down from the deck, Diarmuid was still thinking about Luffy's fruit ability.

Although the rubber fruit feels very low, you have to admit that the rubber fruit is the soul symbol of Luffy. Without the rubber fruit, is he still himself?

Maybe, but something doesn't feel right.

Moreover, Luffy has developed the rubber fruit very well, and it seems that he is naturally suitable for and matches the ability of this fruit.

Therefore, Diarmait’s first choice is actually the rubber fruit.

But the key point is that this thing has lost its track.

In the original story, Shanks got the rubber fruit from somewhere and was planning to sell it on the black market to exchange for money for drinking and so on.

As a result, when they were stationed in Windmill Village, they were directly beaten by the young and inexperienced Luffy.

Now, although Luffy has "received" the Straw Hat, Shanks has been imprisoned by Diarmait and imprisoned in the Deep Sea Prison, Impel Down, and Impel Down.

Can he still get the rubber fruit?

It's definitely impossible.

It is even possible that the rubber fruits are now being eaten by humans.

At this time, the benefits and advantages of dealing with Doflamingo became apparent. This guy might not be as good as Smoker in other businesses, but he has always been a world-class player in dealing with devil fruits.

Diarmuid thought that when he had some free time, he would ask this second-hand devil fruit dealer to see if he could find the rubber fruit.

Anyway, the Dark-Dark Fruits have been assigned to him, so one is enough, and two won’t be a problem either.

Of course, if he can't find it, that's fine. It's just Diarmait's own little trick. If it doesn't work, he can just give Luffy a new devil fruit ability, a stronger one...

He was not in a hurry about this matter, because there was a large area of ​​'seeds' locked up in Pelton. Once he got the Dark-Dark Fruit, he could make good arrangements for Luffy.

For example, the frozen 'World Destroyer. Bondi. Wald', his Momo Fruit ability is definitely very strong. Another example is the useless 'Clast' who was killed by Diarmuid himself. Although he is useless, his Blood-Blood Fruit is indeed very powerful!

As for whether Luffy could develop these abilities like he developed the rubber fruit, Diarmait didn't care. If he could, it would be a good thing, but if he couldn't, it didn't matter. Anyway, he didn't expect this kid to play any major role.

In fact, whether it was Ace's Flame-Flame Fruit or the superhuman abilities that Luffy wanted, Diarmuid agreed to these things without any utilitarian thoughts. He really just took care of them from the perspective of an elder and uncle.

I didn't expect them to be of much help.

Diarmait was thinking about something, so he walked slowly.

Gion was urging Kuzan, who was even slower than him, to get off the boat.

Therefore, the person walking in front is actually the secretary Tina.

As soon as she got off the boat, a group of people came from all directions to the harbor.

"Beauty, is it coated?"

"I have excellent craftsmanship here. The ships that have been coated by me and arrived in the New World are worth at least eighty, if not a hundred!"

"Lodging, beautiful lady?"

"Want to eat? We just opened a new restaurant here, and they're offering 20% ​​off..."

That’s right, these people who are flocking here are people from all walks of life who are trying to make a living.

There are many people like this in the Sabaody Archipelago. They may be working in a regular port today, and helping pirates coat their products in an illegal area tomorrow. It's all normal.

Tina has always been Diarmait's secretary. Apart from some people who pay more attention to the navy and can probably recognize her, few people in the outside world can notice Tina. In addition, this is a small merchant ship, and no one discovered that she is the secretary of the navy's rear admiral and admiral.

But soon, Diarmait followed him down from the boat. By then, Tina had persuaded many people to leave.

Diarmait listened to the noisy sound, collected his chaotic thoughts, and looked over.

He had a smile on his face, and it seemed very interesting to see Tina frantically trying to persuade these people to leave.

But as he scanned the crowd, he was suddenly stunned. Eh? That old guy!

That's right, there was an old guy in the crowd who was dressed very shabbily, wearing a tattered coat, old shorts, and a pair of flip-flops.

Although the old man was dressed in tattered clothes, he was very handsome, otherwise Diarmait would not have noticed him at first sight.

His hair was a little gray, but a few long light golden hairs could be vaguely seen. He wore a pair of glasses on his nose and was shouting something like 'I, Old Lei, am the most powerful coating king in the Chagos Archipelago'. In his other hand, he was holding the small iron cube wine flask and trying his best to get close to Tina.

That’s right, if Diarmuid is not mistaken, this old man is the famous Hades, Hilbaz Rayleigh.

Diarmait had sent people to the Sabaody Archipelago several times before to inquire about Rayleigh's news, but there was no accurate information. In addition, due to several raids on the slave trade in the Sabaody Archipelago and some changes in the situation, Diarmait thought that the old man had moved away long ago.

But now it looks like he has been hanging around in the Sabaody Archipelago!

Perhaps it was because the slave auction business had long since died out, and Rayleigh no longer had the means to "extort money", so this guy could only come to the coating shop honestly, so that he still had to compete for business here.

Rayleigh was one of the top masters. Not long after Diarmait's surprised gaze fell on him, the old man seemed to feel that someone was looking at him.

So he also looked in the direction of that sight.

Well, he's quite tall, wearing a flowered shirt, like the tourists who come to the Chabaoti Archipelago. Huh? This guy is quite handsome, and has some of the style of me in my old age, hahahaha.

It just looks a little familiar.

This eyebrow, this figure, this... Isn't this a navy admiral?

Rayleigh was stunned for a moment!
