One Piece : Why is that luffy better than our luffy

Chapter 19: Chapter 19 : East Blue Is Too Small To Carry Your Dreams!



The large screen with a red border gradually lit up.

[Under Mt.Colubo, Luffy stood on a small boat, waving goodbye to Dadan and the others.]

["Set sail!"]

[It wasn't a planned decision by Luffy, but a spontaneous one!]

[For years, Luffy had been training his Haki and Rubber-Rubber Fruit abilities in the mountains, rapidly improving his strength.]

[But over the past six months, his progress began to slow down, especially in his Haki training, where the improvement became almost negligible.]

[This stagnation in growth made Luffy feel uneasy.]

[He spoke to Dadan about his concerns, and Dadan told him that seedlings raised in a greenhouse would never grow into towering trees!!]

[Those who stand at the top all went through battles that shaped them!!]

["Luffy, the East Blue is too small for your dreams! It's time to go out and see the world."]

[When Dadan spoke these words with great seriousness, Luffy finally decided to set sail!]

[Standing on the shore, Dadan hid her worries and said in a carefree tone, "Luffy, even if you don't want to be a Marine, don't become a Revolutionary Army soldier either!"]

[Dadan had known Garp for a long time.]

[She still remembers that day... when Garp found out Monkey D. Dragon had become a Revolutionary Army soldier, he cried all night long!!]

[Dadan doesn't want to see that happen again!]

[Luffy nodded and smiled, "Well, I won't become a Revolutionary Army soldier. Just like the Marines, the Revolutionary Army has too many restrictions. I just want to be free."]

["Free?" Dadan looked surprised.]

[She spread her hands, "So you want to be a pirate! Well, at least the relationship between pirates and the Marines isn't as hostile as between the Revolutionary Army and the Marines."]

[In this world, there are countless pirates, and only those who have committed crimes are wanted by the Marines.]

[In fact, some pirates who have done terrible things aren't wanted, but instead become allies of the Marines.]

[But the Revolutionary Army... the moment you join them, you become an enemy of the Marines, who will never stop pursuing you!!!]

[Luffy chuckled, "Not really, I never thought about becoming a pirate or a Marine. I just want to explore the vast world and find ways to grow stronger, so that no one can limit my freedom."]

[Hearing Luffy's words, Dadan felt relieved!]

[With that, little Luffy shouldn't end up opposing Garp...]

["That's good! Brat, have a safe journey!"]

[Saying that, Dadan tossed a bag to Luffy and said, "There's some money I saved up in there. Make sure you eat and don't go hungry, Luffy. If the world outside doesn't suit you, remember, Dadan's home under Mt.Colubo will always welcome you!"]

[After speaking, Dadan turned away without looking back.]

[The two bandits beside her hesitated, glanced at Luffy, and silently followed her.]

[As Dadan approached the small grove, she heard Luffy call out from behind, "Dadan, take care of yourself...!!"]

[The tough and sturdy bandit couldn't hold back her tears, and a warm tear shimmered in her eye...]

Dadan: "That little Luffy over there is so sensible...! But our Luffy isn't bad either."

Monkey D. Garp: "What do you mean not bad?"

Garp vividly remembered the moment Luffy set sail on the blank screen just now...

Two fists raised, hands held high, shouting, "I will become the Pirate King!" and that was it!

And then there was the red-framed Luffy...

Though he might seem distant on the surface, deep down, he's warm-hearted!!

The most important thing is...

This red-framed Luffy clearly stated he wouldn't join the Revolutionary Army!

And for now, he doesn't have any plans to become a pirate either!

Just that alone makes Garp very pleased!!

Damn, can't think, can't think!!!

The more Garp thought about it, the more he wanted to dive into the red-framed screen and switch places with the Garp over there!
