One Piece: Comparison of Two Lufees, This Luffy is Too Competitive!

💥 Good News For my Pãtreon Supporters the first team member just join me to help me Translate the chapter and from today we will post 4 chapter a day on Pãtreon/Flokixy so I hope for your support so we can continue with the daily update 🙏

Gecko Moria: "...Huh? Sand Crocodile, that disdainful smile of his..."

Gol D. Roger: "Haha! He probably thinks Luffy's attack is just a joke to him, right? But he would never imagine that in a moment, he's going to become a joke himself~~~"

Shiki: "Gyahahahaha!! Luffy's age is too deceptive!!! At this age, basically no one has encountered Haki!!!"

Donquixote Doflamingo: "Fuffuffuffu..., stop talking, pay attention, here it comes!!!"

[Luffy's foot descended from the sky!!!]

[Originally, he was aiming for Crocodile's abdomen...]

[But at this moment, looking at Crocodile's disdainful smile, Luffy instantly changed his attack target, stomping directly towards Crocodile's face~~~]

[Of course... Crocodile still had that disdainful smile on his face!!]

[In his view, Luffy is just a newcomer who has barely entered the Grand Line, probably hasn't even seen a Logia Devil Fruit user's abilities~~~]

[He couldn't possibly know that Logia-type elementalization can ignore any physical attack!]

[But just as the sole of Luffy's shoe made contact with Crocodile's face, the pitch-black Haki suddenly gushed out like water seeping into absorbent paper~~~]

[What...in an instant...!]

[In that instant, Crocodile's heart almost skipped half a beat~]

[However, he had no time to react at all~]

[BOOM!! --]

[Luffy's foot stomped directly onto his face, and then viciously ground it into the ground...]

[The yellow sand and gravel on the ground scattered in all directions~]

[The entire world suddenly fell silent...]

When this scene appeared, the chat room burst into laughter.

Especially when recalling Crocodile's confident and disdainful smile just moments before, and then "620" seeing him get his head stomped directly into the ground by Luffy like this, this contrasting scene was truly too hilarious!

Impel Down~

The surrounding prisoners at this moment looked at Crocodile with eyes full of sympathy~

Crocodile's face was ashen...

His encounter with Luffy on this side was already miserable enough, he didn't expect the one over there to be even worse!!!

Just now, a flurry of fierce moves!!

As a result, Luffy just casually waved his hand, completely ignoring his attacks~~~

Now Luffy finally fought back...

...

And with just one move, he was directly KO'd!!!

What's the difference between himself and those pirates with bounties of a few tens of millions of Berries???

Crocodile took a deep breath, forcibly adjusted his mood, otherwise he would really be angered to death by this past self~~~

["Ah!! Mr. Crocodile...!!"]

["Not good!! Mr. Crocodile was defeated by the pirates!!!"]

["Run quickly!!!" These two pirates are indeed cruel, if we don't run, we'll lose our lives!"]

["Mommy!!"]

[...]

[The surrounding civilians who were originally cheering for Crocodile were now all scared out of their wits, hurriedly fleeing in all directions~~~]

["What a truly unreliable fellow~~~"]

[Luffy complained, then put Chopper and Nami down, saying, "Let's go, since we're wanted, let's head back to the ship first~~~"]

[He originally wanted to explore the local customs and scenery with Nami more, but it ended up like this. Luffy felt quite disappointed...]

["Ahem..."]

[Crocodile pulled his head out of the ground, spat out two mouthfuls of fresh blood, "Ar...Armament Haki...Brat...are you from the New World...???"]

[Slowly getting up, Crocodile took out a handkerchief from his shirt pocket and elegantly wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth~~~]

[Luffy's combat power had truly exceeded his expectations!!!]

[Of course, being hit so squarely by Luffy's attack was also partly due to Crocodile's own carelessness...]

[But...no matter what, Crocodile at this moment no longer wanted to continue fighting Luffy!!]

[Because, he wanted to recruit Luffy!]

[On one hand, it was because of Luffy's strong combat power!]

[On the other hand, and most importantly, it was because of Luffy's young age!]

[Young age means he's inexperienced in the ways of the world, making him easier to brainwash and control...]

["New World?! You mean the second half of the Grand Line!"]

[Hearing this, Luffy turned his head to look at Crocodile, shook his head, "No, I'm from the East Blue!!!"]

[East Blue...]

[East Blue is good!!!!]

[Those from the East Blue are definitely even less worldly, making them even easier to brainwash and control~]

["Brat, I'm very curious about something!!! I was about to kill you just now, why didn't you want to kill me after knocking me to the ground? I am Crocodile, if you kill me, your fame in the pirate world will instantly skyrocket!!"]

[Crocodile naturally didn't think the other party had the ability to kill him, but he just wanted to ask this question~~]

[Luffy tilted his head, looking puzzled, "No way... For someone as strong as you... isn't killing you a very simple matter? Why would my fame skyrocket???"]

[Hey!! -- --]

[Crocodile felt a lump in his throat!]

[Good lad...]

[Is this how your mother taught you to talk to people...???]

[Crocodile felt a surge of anger instantly gush from his heart!!!!]

[But in the next moment, he forcibly suppressed this anger~~~]

[Forget it, forget it......]

[I still want to recruit him, I can't lose my composure in front of him..]

[At this moment, Luffy continued, "But... although your strength is ordinary, you are able to guard the duties of a Warlord of the Sea and bring a peaceful and happy life to the civilians of this city. This point is very admirable!!!"]

["......"]

[Crocodile's face instantly darkened!!!!]

[Good heavens~~~~~]

[This guy actually genuinely thinks I'm a soft persimmon...]

[But considering what he wanted to do, Crocodile continued to endure it...]

[Moreover, Luffy had just mentioned "because he protects the civilians of this city, so this point makes him admirable." As soon as these words came out, Crocodile was overjoyed!!!]

[Good!!!]

[He really is that kind of naive young man with nothing but hot blood~~~~~]

[This kind of person, as long as the right method is used, can definitely be controlled!!!]

["Hahaha!!! That's right... Although I was originally a pirate too, when I realized that with great power comes great responsibility, I felt I should do something for these innocent commoners~"]

["It was only when the World Government genuinely requisitioned me to become a Warlord of the Sea that I found the right direction!!"]

["The me now... what I can't stand the most is those cruel pirates harming civilians!!!"]

[Crocodile tried his best to elevate his persona, then looked at Luffy, extending a hand, "Luffy, your strength is so great, you can totally do something meaningful like me!! Come, become my partner, let's work together to bring light and heat to this country...!!!"]

Rocks D. Xebec: "Heh!"

Shiki: "Gyahahahaha!!"

Gol D. Roger: "Damn!! This kid is truly a damn talent!!!"

Donquixote Doflamingo: "Anyone who doesn't know Crocodile for the first time would definitely be conquered by Crocodile's charisma, fuffuffuffu...!!!"

Shanks: "I said it long ago, pirates can't be trusted!!!"

Sengoku: "Shut up!!! Don't talk nonsense, this is Crocodile's personal reason!! It has nothing to do with anyone else...!!!"

Seeing what Shanks said, Sengoku's heart skipped a beat!!! Shanks, this bastard...

Although they were currently in a viewing period, the Summit War was a real thing!!!

If, at this time, due to Shanks' reckless words, a rift formed between the Warlords of the Sea and the Marine side~~~

Then for the Marines, it would undoubtedly be a devastating blow!!!

At that time... the Marines would not only have to face two Yonko crews, Gol D. Roger and Kozuki Oden, but also the rebellion of several Warlords of the Sea...

This... how could they even fight!

["~~~~~"]

[Crocodile's words made Luffy break out in goosebumps~~]

[He just admired this type of person like Crocodile, but it doesn't mean he is willing to become this kind of person..]

[To make him stay in one place and protect the people of that place???]

[Luffy would never do such a thing!]

[Because he knows, if a person stagnates... their strength will definitely not improve!!!]

[What if one day a super strong pirate appears, wouldn't he be finished then???]

[Luffy's goal is very clear, not this...!!!]

[One is to circumnavigate the Grand Line once, to see this strange world~]

[The other is to continuously increase his strength in battle, striving to reach the peak of this world's strength as soon as possible!]

["I appreciate your sincere invitation, but I also have my own things to do!! And I will only stay here for ten days. When the Log Pose's record is full, I will leave with my crew~~~," Luffy politely refused.]

[!!!!]

[Crocodile's heart instantly turned cold~]

[But he is a deep and scheming old fox, of course he knows that this kind of thing cannot be rushed!]

[The other party has already expressed refusal, if he presses too hard, it will only make things counterproductive...]

[Thinking of this, Crocodile then said, "Alright then! Everyone has their own aspirations, I won't force you!! But we can still be considered fated to meet. If you don't mind, please be my guest at my place, let me fulfill my duties as a host~"]

["Hahaha!! Thank you very much for your kind invitation, but there's really no need... I have my own things to do~"]

[When two people meet by chance, is there any problem with them mutually exploring each other's bottom line?]

[But Crocodile first invited him to join his crew, and now that joining didn't work, he invited him to be a guest...]

[Luffy would never mind speculating about others with the worst possible intentions~]

[He has always adhered to the concept of "One must not have the heart to harm others, but one cannot be without the heart to guard against others"!!!]

[Although Luffy is very persistent about food and is also very strong, this doesn't mean he likes to put himself in unknown situations~]

["Alright..."]

[Crocodile also knows when to stop~]

[Since Luffy's intention to refuse has already been expressed very clearly, Crocodile shrugged his shoulders, "Then, may we meet again if fate allows~"]

[Although he couldn't become his subordinate, Crocodile knew that Luffy and his group would leave after ten days, so he was relieved...]

[Although Luffy couldn't be used by him, at least such a strong person wouldn't interfere with his future plans, and that was enough!!]

["Bye-bye~~"]

[Luffy waved his hand and left with Nami and Chopper...]

[Because of the wanted posters, they couldn't stroll around Yuba City openly anymore. They had to plan to return to the Merry first, then change clothes and disguise themselves before going out tomorrow~~~]

[Just as they were about to reach the port, Luffy suddenly picked up Chopper, grabbed Nami, and ran into a small alley nearby~~~]

[A moment later, a young girl with a ponytail and light blue hair chased after them, and immediately bumped right into Luffy's arms...]

["Ah!!"]

[Princess Vivi bumped into Luffy, bounced back, and fell sitting on the ground...]

["You've been following us for half a day~~~,"]

["Is there something...you need???"]

[Looking at Princess Vivi who had fallen to the ground, Luffy asked faintly...]

[When he was saying goodbye to Crocodile earlier, Luffy's Observation Haki had already sensed Princess Vivi's presence...]

["Umm..."]

[Discovering she had been exposed, Princess Vivi was momentarily at a loss.]

[Nami walked up to Princess Vivi, crouched down gently, cupped Princess Vivi's chin with her small hand, and smiled faintly, "Are you trying to capture me and Luffy to exchange for bounty??? "]

[Princess Vivi hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth, "That's right!! You two mass-murdering pirates, everyone has the right to execute you!!!"]

["Ahaha~~~"]

[An expression between crying and laughing appeared on Nami's face. She patted Princess Vivi's small cheek and said with a smile, "Little sister, you don't even look as old as me. Why are you trying to be a bounty hunter? Don't you know that we pirates kill without batting an eye?"]

[Suddenly thinking of something else, Nami pointed a thumb towards Luffy behind her and said deliberately, "By the way, pretty little girls like you, our boss really likes to rape then kill~~~"]

["!!!!"]

[The corner of Luffy's mouth twitched slightly...]

[But 1.1 he knew Nami was just teasing, so he had no choice but to play along with this dumb act...]¹

[And Nami was still waiting to see Princess Vivi make a fool of herself~~~]

[Since the other party wanted to catch pirates, Nami naturally didn't want to make things difficult for her, but she had to let the other party know how dangerous this world is!!!]

[Otherwise... a young girl like this, it would be very easy for her to fail at catching pirates and end up being ravaged by pirates instead~]

[However, Princess Vivi actually tilted her chin up, "Alright then! Then you can kill me!!!!"]

["Huh?"]

[This time, it was Nami's turn to be dumbfounded!!!!]

[What's this situation???]

[Are all the young girls in big cities this brave......]

[The other party is so fierce, it made Nami's prank unable to continue~~~]

[But... she didn't get angry!!]

[Isn't there still Luffy~]

[I still don't believe I can't scare you little girl today...]

[She pulled Princess Vivi up, pushed her directly onto Luffy, and then chuckled, "Boss, enjoy yourself. I'll come back later to dispose of the body~~~"]

[Princess Vivi bumped into Luffy, still feeling very nervous~~]

[The reason she had followed Luffy and Nami was because she was taking a gamble...]

[If she lost the gamble, she might very well be doomed beyond recovery~~~]

[But if she won the gamble, perhaps the miracle to save the Alabasta Kingdom lies here!!!!]

[Instantly, she looked at Luffy, her light blue eyes shining with light!!!!]

[Luffy sidestepped, then leaned against the nearby wall, shook his head slightly, and said, "No need to keep testing us...... If I'm not mistaken, you have something you want to ask of us, right???"]

["Huh!!!"]

[As soon as these words came out, Princess Vivi's eyes widened in disbelief, "Huh? You...how did you know?"]
