One Piece – I Am A Different Luffy!

Chapter 218 – Water Seven 02.

I'm posting two chapters of One Piece because I want to focus on the 3 from DanMachi tomorrow.

[Chapter Size: 2000 Words.]
Third Person POV

Water Seven, First Half of Grandline.

...

...

The Black Pearl was getting ever closer to its next stop, slicing through the sea but without the rush Luffy usually imposed on the ship with his power. 

"Luffy, the town seems to already know we're coming..." Usopp said, using a technological lens on his eye after Luffy passed on a Vegapunk project for the sniper to create with the Doctor in Skypiea. It was an item he had only finished a few days ago, and Usopp could now see things from afar much faster than by looking through a magnifying glass. 

"Let them, we can't do anything about it, after all, we are a superpower in this sea, it's normal to arrive anywhere and scare people," Luffy commented. 

"Are we scary now, Luffy-Sama?!" Shirahoshi seemed horrified by this. 

"We are pirates, I guess it's very normal," Vivi commented on the side. 

"Anyway..." Luffy commented and looked at Hugo. "I need you to hunt someone down in that city," Luffy said and began to explain. "He is not hard to find, he's at a bar as the owner, his hair is iconic with 2 looking like horns, he uses the power of the door fruit, so you have to be faster than him as soon as he sees you as a threat, got it?" Luffy laid out the instructions on how to capture Bueno. 

"That will be easy, captain," Hugo spoke calmly. 

"That's good," Luffy nodded and turned his attention to his pocket, where he took out his den den mushi. Dialing a call, the phone started ringing. 

*KATCHA!* 

"Hello," a familiar voice came from the other side. 

"Hello, grandpa," Luffy said calmly. 

"LUFFY!!! YOU DAMN BRAT! WHERE ARE YOU NOW?!" Garp demanded immediately. 

"I'm missing you, can't a grandson call to ask how you are?" Luffy asked. 

"You think you can catch me with that again!?" The den den mushi screamed, but there was a blush knowing Garp was holding back. "LISTEN HERE, YOU IRRESPONSIBLE BRAT, HOW ARE MY..." Garp suddenly stopped. 

'He was going to say great-grandchildren, but he hid that from someone in the middle of the call when he was about to pronounce those words,' Luffy thought and gave a small smile. 

"So you're in front of Sengoku, aren't you? That's good, I need to talk to him," Luffy said with Garp's silence. 

"GIVE ME THAT, GARP!" Sengoku, not knowing why Garp did not continue, asked for the den den mushi. 

"PIRATE MONKEY D. LUFFY!" Sengoku shouted into the den den mushi, while Luffy's crew was all listening to the conversation in silence. 

"Hello, Sengoku. It's good to talk to you," Luffy smiled. 

"You have a Shichibukai still in captivity! You better release him immediately, otherwise, I will send the entire force of the navy to catch you!" Sengoku immediately threatened him. 

"Good that you brought that up," Luffy said, "let's negotiate, after all, the capture of a Shichibukai is not your only concern," Luffy spoke mysteriously, making Sengoku have a bad feeling and growl. 

"What do you mean!!??" He asked cautiously. 

"Give me a few minutes," Luffy spoke and turned to Hugo. "Hugo, grab that man I asked for. You can stop at the harbor and enjoy the city, but we will leave in a few days, after all, we have a big negotiation with the navy," Luffy spoke and quickly jumped into the air with Hugo following him and flew towards Water Seven immediately. 

They raced through the air, without the city realizing that Luffy was already arriving before his ship, by this time people were already spreading the shocking news of a 750 million pirate approaching the city. 

"What are we going to do?!" screamed a woman. 

"Notify the mayor immediately!" 

"Should we call the navy?" 

People screamed in fear, Luffy was portrayed as a bloodthirsty demon that destroyed entire islands and thousands of people paid with their lives when that happened, everyone in the city was seeking shelters, workers left the docks, citizens docked in houses closing all doors. 

Iceberg frowned as soon as he heard about the Straw Hat pirates approaching the city, while his employees looked on, some with a look of fear. 

"FEAR!" "FEAR!" Robb Lucci's pigeon said scared while he frowned, after all, even CP9 had to recognize Luffy's strength as depicted in the newspapers, which of them could deal with a power that could devastate an island, even the talented Robb Lucci had doubts.

Robb Lucci exchanged glances with the other members as they pondered what to do. "What should we do, Iceburg?" Paulie raised the question while everyone was silent. 

"Let's stay calm. If we need to deal with them causing trouble, we should try to stop them," Iceburg said. 

"You talk as if we're dealing with ordinary pirates. You know we can't face those pirates; have you seen what they can turn into in the newspaper?!" Paulie said in frustration. 

"Even so, we can't let them destroy Water Seven. Kalifa, contact the navy immediately," Iceburg said. 

However, something happened. As they were discussing, a high-speed meteor fell from the sky, exploding the ground in front of the company, while everyone quickly went on alert. 

From the debris, Luffy emerged with his cape fluttering, flaunting his symbol while smiling at them with the den den mushi still in his hand. He looked at Iceburg and the others as if they were his prey, while they all frowned at this pirate arriving in such a manner. 

Meanwhile, on the other side of the town, in a specific bar, Bueno was somewhat cautious. The city had plunged into chaos, and his customers quickly ran to their homes intending to hide; some even went to the port to flee the place. 

He was wondering whether he should wait to see what happened or go after the others. 'This might compromise our disguise; I should stay here and wait for things to calm down.' He decided in the end, after all, his mission had been carried out for years; he wouldn't like to lose it at this moment with uncertainty. 

However, at that moment, he heard the bar's doorbell opening and was surprised to see a large man entering. He was a member of CP9; he had to be aware of all possible information and it wasn't hard to realize that this man was Hugo, one of the Straw Hat pirates. 

Hugo looked at him and soon began to move towards the counter. Bueno just tried to appear calm as he watched him approaching; Hugo simply sat at the counter and looked at him. "Give me your best loot," he said, and Bueno nodded, taking a bottle with a glass while pouring the alcohol into the glass and placing it on the table for Hugo to drink. Bueno could feel a pressure, indicating that something bad might happen, but he kept as calm as he could. 

Hugo picked up the glass and drank calmly. As soon as he finished, downing it all in one gulp, he looked at the bartender, "You know, when my captain asked me to look for a man with cow-like hair and named Bueno, I didn't expect to find him in the first bar I entered. I guess I'm a lucky man," Hugo spoke with a small smile. 

"..." Bueno just looked at him for a while, his demeanor appearing almost calm, but inside he was nervous. He stared at Hugo for a few seconds while the man gazed back with a smile. 

Bueno moved his finger, and a door materialized beside him. However, as he was about to touch the doorknob, a huge hand grabbed him by the neck, breaking the counter while Hugo appeared in front of him. 

Bueno immediately spat saliva and could no longer move as he felt his breathing stop with the grip on his neck. "Sorry, but my order is to capture you; my captain asked for it, and I don't intend to disappoint him," Hugo commented calmly. 

Bueno, unable to do anything to escape the grip on his neck as his body was lifted, pointed his finger at Hugo's head, launching a shigan. 

A small impact was heard, while Hugo just calmly looked at the finger. He didn't even need to use haki to defend himself because it didn't even tickle his skin hardened by the titan. 

Hugo just smiled and raised another hand, slapping the man, making some teeth come out of his mouth as he fainted with a swollen and bleeding face after receiving just one slap. As soon as Hugo saw him passed out, he shrugged, took the bottle that had been served from the stock, and left drinking while dragging the man, his door created by the akuma no mi had already disappeared. 

As Hugo left the bar and jumped into the air to find his captain, Luffy was staring down all the men of the Galley-La Company.

"Answer me, Monkey D. Luffy! What do you mean by that!" Sengoku shouted into the den den mushi, since Luffy had yet to respond to him. 

"Simple, Sengoku." Luffy ignored the men in front of him, smiling at the den den mushi. "Because I'm in Water Seven, you know what that means?" He said calmly. 

"..." Sengoku was silent for a while, until he spoke again, "No... you can't be serious..." Sengoku could not believe what he was hearing, how did Monkey D. Luffy have such precious information? 

"I am, I'm now capturing the entire CP9, so you better give me a fair value for the exchange!" Luffy said, smiling. 

Silence took over the place, Iceburg was trying to understand what was happening, while the CP9 members themselves were quite alarmed now. 

Lucci immediately looked at the other CP9 members, knowing their cover was blown and they were about to act, but before they could, Luffy released his Conqueror's Haki, which immediately flew out in all directions at that dock, 

"Do you think I'll let you escape so easily?" Luffy asked while seeing everyone feel the pressure of his king, immediately everyone began to kneel, unable to handle his current strength. 

"You are a little better, but still, you're weak. Is this the talent of the best talent to emerge in 500 years in Cipher Pol?" Luffy said as yellow lightning covered the dock and his gaze went to Robb Lucci kneeling with one knee and trying to fight against the pressure. 

"How do you know all this?! How do you know us, pirate?!" Robb spoke with difficulty while growling, but he could not move, Luffy was extremely strong here. 

Iceburg, kneeling with the others who didn't know the true identity of the CP9 agents, were shocked to hear Robb Lucci speak for the first time, since he had always been mute and his pigeon spoke for him. 

Luffy didn't immediately respond and looked at all the people kneeling at the site, making sure none fainted yet, he looked amused especially at the agents of the feared CP9, appearing just weak while they couldn't even deal with his Conqueror's Haki. 

'Luffy originally couldn't even deal with them at this part of the journey, this shows the difference between my current crew and the original Straw Hat members when they landed in Water Seven.' Luffy couldn't help but compare his strength, satisfied. 

"You hear that, Sengoku. I'm capturing all the members of the CP9, I'll be in touch soon so we can negotiate my terms." Luffy said. 

"You bastard!" Sengoku shouted angrily, but Luffy simply hung up the den den mushi, cutting off his voice. He now had to deal with his new prisoners.
