Chapter 450

"Liu... Liu Zoro."

"Found you."

Liu Zoro looked at the person in front of him, instantly felt intense hostility, and placed his hand on the sword at his waist.

If they blocked him now, he would chop off their hands.

He meant what he said.

Everyone watching the scene in front of them didn't dare to act rashly.

Now, these two Mohist mechanical puppets had already been defeated.

That meant that next, Sentomaru would have to enter the fray personally.

But she didn't make any moves at this time.

【Wasn't it supposed to be a big battle? Did it end just after solving two Pacifistas?】

【I always feel that this captain came here to see their growth during this period.】

【No, no, the quieter the beginning, the more turbulent it will be later.】

【This news will definitely spread quickly; even if she doesn't make a move now, other generals will come.】

【The Seven Warlords know about this, can they still be so calm? Almost everyone thinks Luffy is dead!】

【I have to say, this wave of operations is truly cool! At least it was cool to me!】

【Seeing that they are all so powerful, I am relieved.】

Sentomaru knew what to do next.

While preparing for the next wave of attacks, a familiar voice attracted her.

"Looks like the effect is good."

Luffy heard this familiar voice on the battlefield, and his mood brightened a bit.

"Rayleigh!"

He immediately waved his hands constantly in that direction, greeting Rayleigh on the mountain.

Everyone also followed Luffy's line of sight.

They were stunned when they confirmed the identity of the person on top.

Because that was the famous former Seven Warlord! Rayleigh!

What was his relationship with Luffy?

Appearing here now, was he determined to help Luffy?

Sentomaru looked at the situation in front of her and also felt it was very absurd.

She originally wanted to take down Luffy herself, but she didn't expect such a fierce character to appear here now.

This meant she had no chance at all.

Rayleigh's rank wasn't something she could easily cross.

Furthermore, her purpose for coming here today had already been achieved; there was no need to cause more trouble.

"Why did you come here?"

Luffy was somewhat curious to see Rayleigh arrive here just like that.

Before that, they had told him not to show his face casually.

He had kept their words in his heart.

He didn't expect them to show up on their own now; what was this?

Rayleigh could naturally understand what Luffy was thinking, so he smiled and openly acknowledged his relationship with Luffy.

"Nothing, I just came here to see your progress."

Everyone felt like a bolt from the blue upon hearing this.

Because everyone knew that openly siding with Luffy at this time meant showing the imperial court that they had already become opponents.

Originally, everyone thought this was a very cool thing, until the Pacifistas appeared and cleared the battlefield.

Only then did they feel that their strength wasn't worth such a struggle.

Luffy's strength was simply above theirs.

Just looking at it made them afraid to desecrate it.

There wasn't much difference in him over these two years, but his strength was vastly different from two years ago!

"Leave the matters here to me; you go back and gather with your companions first!"

Rayleigh waved his hand and let Luffy and his companions leave first.

If they continued to fight here, he would stop them without hesitation.

Now that his attitude had been made clear, he wanted to see what attitude the imperial court had.

He could guarantee one thing: no one present dared to challenge his rank casually.

Sentomaru gritted her teeth in frustration, watching the cooked duck fly away like this.

【I didn't expect this to come with after-sales service! I thought Rayleigh would never appear again after teaching those secrets.】

【The world's number one nice guy has appeared! Rayleigh is truly too kind; he is truly very dedicated to Luffy!】

【Isn't that right? Helping to repair the war chariot and teaching such powerful secret techniques; plus, his strength is unexpectedly powerful. Who dares to provoke this big brother?】

【The more I watch, the more I envy Luffy's connections; no matter where he goes, someone will help him. This is what's truly precious!】

【To cultivate connections like Luffy's, the prerequisite is to have enough qualifications to be spotted by others! Otherwise, you'll end up like that fake Luffy.】

Sentomaru never expected Rayleigh to step out decisively at this time.

She thought this person would at least play the role of someone silently paying behind the scenes.

She didn't expect him to jump out and confront her face-to-face.

Now, both Pacifistas had been defeated, and she really had no trump card left.

Just as she was thinking about how to solve this, a shout came from the air.

"Luffy~"

It was Chopper's voice.

A giant bird flew in the sunlight.

Under its huge body, a large shadow instantly covered a large area of the Imperial Guards.

The Imperial Guards were covered by this huge shadow and instantly panicked.

But they all looked up one after another, wanting to confirm who the guy above them was that brought them such a huge threat.

They saw the deer head on the giant bird.

Confirming it was indeed Chopper, he had actually come riding a giant bird!

This brought a huge shock to all the Imperial Guards.

They didn't expect there to be animal performances these days.

Even a pet could ride a pet?

Then, was it time to increase his bounty a bit?

After all, things were different now.

They had also seen that giant bird in the illustrated guide.

That was an aggressive bird species from a certain special kingdom.

The difficulty of taming it was top-notch.

How could it be ridden by Chopper now?

According to Chopper's ability, he should be the one being ridden.

They must have seen it wrong!

Although all the Imperial Guards were a bit panicked, they still prepared their bows and arrows one after another, aiming at the giant bird in the sky.

【Why did he come riding a big bird?】

【Why is this big bird so familiar? Could it be that Chopper got it from that kingdom where humans and birds don't get along?】

【If it's true, then it's too interesting! Chopper was actually able to tame that bird this time! He was bullied so badly by this group of birds before.】

【Chopper: Now is the time for me to lead you!】

【This is too cute, but why is there a sense of déjà vu of riding a divine eagle?】

The giant bird looked down.
