----------
I, York, was born between heaven and earth - how can I live under people for a long time!
Unaware of the desire-driven incident that erupted at the research level at this moment, the Straw Hat Pirates and the samurai stopped training because of the cessation of the simulated battlefield and the warning sound of the barrier dome.
But no one was nervous because of this, after all, this situation has happened many times in this month.
Walking out of the training room, almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Fighting against the group of robots on Egghead Island who can use lasers and super fighting abilities really made them feel vividly challenged.
Luffy stretched his muscles and said, "Ah! This battle is as refreshing as ever, and I feel that I'm getting closer to the awakening that Duggypunk mentioned."
"It's Vegapunk!"
Franky corrected the captain's habit of not remembering names, and then touched the machinery composed of the latest technology on his body. "As expected of the most intelligent scientist in the world! My body is getting closer and closer to those high-strength modified humans, and then I'll become a powerful launcher of lasers!"
"Ooh!"
Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper immediately looked starstruck and rushed to Franky to make trouble.
"This group of idiots - it's not time for you to play with these things now."
With a cigarette in his mouth, Sanji took a puff and looked at the samurai who also came out of the battlefield. "How is the progress on your side? With the current world situation, we have to race against time in this special situation."
Headed by Kin'emon, all the Red Scabbard samurai nodded in unison.
"I have never thought that there is such a magical existence in the sea. It's completely beyond the mystery of any technique. I was truly watching the sky from the bottom of a well."
"Those robots are very powerful. It seems that they have passed the analysis of Edison. Our martial arts have grown rapidly in the process of fighting them."
It's not just that Luffy's feeling for awakening is getting closer and closer, but also the companions of the Straw Hat Pirates and the samurai have also achieved significant improvement in their skills and martial arts through this targeted training with artificial intelligence.
If they struggled with the two commanders who used to be from the Beast Pirates before, now with the experience since going to sea plus the transformation of this month, even against the Four Emperor Kaido, they think they could defeat him.
And compared to Oden, naturally, all the Red Scabbards believe that their lord's strength is invincible.
And thinking of their master, the young master is naturally also considered.
Thinking of this, Denjiro and the others all frowned.
Momonosuke, who has become an adult but is still a decadent ordinary person, only managed to comprehend a few sword skills that can throw flashy sword flowers from the level of a junior samurai in a month, and gained nothing other than that.
And that's with the help of amazing things like advanced technology.
And you must know their real master Oden, who was able to lift a boulder to kill a giant bear at the age of four. After fifteen years old, he caused such big events as the "Harem Incident" and "Mountain God Incident."
In this contrast, the Red Scabbard samurai deeply felt the mediocrity of Momonosuke.
Although the young master is only an eight-year-old child in essence, his appearance in his twenties makes them completely unable to see him normally.
After a long time, many Red Scabbard warriors have forgotten the real age of Momonosuke.
The scrutiny that shows disappointment probably pressures Momonosuke.
And this makes Momonosuke, who has no sense of responsibility, even more incompetent.
Knowing what the samurai were thinking, Sanji let out another mouthful of smoke and said, "Take it easy. He's still just an eight-year-old kid after all."
Kin'emon and the others nodded but didn't say anything.
Seeing the attitude of the samurai, Sanji also understood that they didn't really hear his words, so he didn't say anything more.
After all, this group of people has the idea of restoring their country, and they also have duties that they must fulfill.
From all the things involved in going to sea with Alex, plus the incidents involving Garp, Shanks, and Brook, their captain has completely become immortal enemies with Alex.
When it comes to the deaths of companions, saviors, and grandfather, the crew members who are closer than family can't turn a blind eye. It can be said that at this moment they completely ignored their constant fear of Alex and looked toward death.
That's right - facing death as if going home.
Although their strength has grown exponentially in a month, there are quite a few companions who understand the situation. If they want to fight against the Eternal Kingdom, which now controls the entire world, at their level, they are undoubtedly seeking their own death.
But the sea - isn't it the destination for men who go out on adventures?
And they also witnessed Luffy realize the dream of "Pirate King" in another sense.
On the other hand, it's not only most of the Straw Hat companions who see the reality clearly, but also Momonosuke.
Just because he is well aware of his own weakness and incompetence, he is even more afraid of the powerful Alex and the Eternal Kingdom. Even these retainers and the mink tribe of Zou cannot compete with them.
What's more, Momonosuke also knows that he, an "eight-year-old" child, can already understand the situation. Kin'emon and the others can definitely see it clearly, but they still keep pushing him toward the dream of revitalizing Wano. They want to push him toward death continuously!
At the same time, in this situation of being pressured and oppressed by the retainers every day, feelings of resentment and hatred began to fill Momonosuke's heart.
They're obviously just retainers! He is the young master! Why do they order him around with such confidence!
And it was because of them from the beginning that he had conflicts with Alex and the Sky Kingdom. Obviously, his mother and Hiyori are still alive! They're able to live comfortably.
After all, Hiyori was a princess of the Sky Kingdom at that time! Now she's a consort of the Eternal Kingdom! Not to mention that there's a mother who loves him very much!
The contrast between the depression of reality and the beauty of fantasy made Momonosuke even more motivated to let these guys die, and he flinched and wanted to surrender to Alex.
As for reviving Wano?!
Whoever wants to can do it!
Even if his father were alive, he surely wouldn't want to see himself, the only heir of the family, die!
