Chapter 675 Kuzan joins the Straw Hat Pirates
Chapter 675 Kuzan joins the Straw Hat Pirates
"Because of the previous incident, the World Government has stepped up its surveillance of Impel Down. The new deputy warden is a user of the Parahuman Perception Fruit, which allows him to sense all life within a radius of 100 miles, including those in other dimensions.
"Two months ago, I was planning to go to Impel Downs to look for someone, but I was discovered. Borsalino's reinforcements arrived quickly, and if I hadn't left so decisively, I might have been left behind," Carmen said.
This was the first time he suffered a setback. Ever since the awakening of the Door-Door Fruit, he had been able to conquer the world, but he did not expect to be defeated by a deputy warden of average strength.
"Perception Fruit? There are so many types of Devil Fruits. It doesn't matter if he can't get in. Blackbeard probably wanted to be arrested voluntarily. He will get out one day." Zel said nonchalantly.
The Dark-Dark Fruit has the ability to hunt devil fruits. Sixty percent of the devil fruits in the sea have been collected by the Kingdom of Adrian in Langzhong. Apart from those, the place with the most devil fruits is Impel Down.
Impel Down is not only a prison for pirates, but also a place where devil fruits are sealed.
Some powerful devil fruits are easily beyond the control of the World Government. There is too much uncertainty. Anyway, no one knows where it will be reborn. It is better to keep it in the body of the ability user and imprisoned in Impel Down.
In the original timeline, the rapid development of Pirate King Blackbeard was inseparable from the companions he recruited in Impel Down and the devil fruits he hunted.
The Impel Down City now holds prisoners of the Revolutionary Army and Blackbeard, a huge variable. It will explode again one day, and they don't need to do anything.
"Anything else?" Zel asked.
Cohen nodded and continued, "There's another thing about the former Navy Admiral Kuzan. After the Marshal's War ended, Kuzan left the Navy and wandered the sea alone...with an Emperor Napo.
Not long ago, Kuzan met Luffy, the Straw Hat Pirates, who had just set out to sea, in the East China Sea and joined the Straw Hat Pirates.
According to my understanding, the identity of this Straw Hat Boy is very special. He is the grandson of the Navy hero Garp and the son of the revolutionary leader Dragon..."
Zel interrupted, "Are you sure? Kuzan joined the Straw Hat Pirates?"
He was not surprised by the previous news, but Kuzan's news was indeed beyond his expectations.
As a former naval admiral, you actually appointed a guy who just went to sea as captain. Does this make sense?
"The news has been confirmed. The Navy has issued a bounty for Kuzan."
Cohen said as he handed a bounty order to Zell.
Zel took it and looked at it. The picture showed a man lying leisurely on a sun lounger. The man had an eye mask on his forehead and looked very lazy.
If not Kuzan, who is it?
Next to Kuzan, a guy wearing a straw hat and smiling like a fool was riding on a King Napo. It was Straw Hat Boy Luffy.
Although he didn't know why the plot developed in this direction, Zel had to believe it.
Perhaps, Kuzan wants to take a path that no one can imagine?
Everyone thought he would join the Kingdom of Adrian. After all, the Kingdom of Adrian is the most powerful force today, and its style of doing things is most similar to that of the navy.
But Kuzan didn't do that.
"Where are the Straw Hat Pirates now?"
Due to his arrival, the timeline of the pirate world has been completely disrupted, and Zel has no idea where the Straw Hat Pirates are venturing now.
"A week ago, the Straw Hat Pirates arrived in the Kingdom of Alabasta and clashed with the Hunter Guild under Crocodile. According to the Straw Hat Pirates' habits, they would most likely attack Crocodile." Cohen replied.
Luffy's strength is average, but he has a powerful background, so the Kingdom of Adrien naturally pays attention to him.
According to Cohen's understanding, although the Straw Hat Boys have a good heart, they are a bit screwed up and cause trouble wherever they go.
Crocodile's act of stealing the country is no secret in the eyes of the Kingdom of Adrien, and the Straw Hats will most likely not stand idly by.
"Oh, the Kingdom of Alabasta? It's a very valuable kingdom with rich oil reserves. We can intervene appropriately." Zel said.
"There's another piece of news. Mona and Robin's historical exploration team is also in Alabasta, investigating the historical texts left there," Cohen added.
Hearing this, Zel thought for a moment and said, "Let Mona and Robin join the Straw Hat Pirates."
Cohen said with a strange look on his face, "With Kuzan here, it shouldn't be that easy, right?"
"Kuzan probably won't care. Besides, he owes Mona a lot of favors. As for Captain Luffy, that guy accepts everyone. Mona is a manga artist and Robin is a historian. Luffy probably won't refuse."
Cohen really wanted to ask Zel why he thought Luffy wouldn't refuse a cartoonist. Is this profession useful to the pirate group?
But thinking about Luffy's personality, well, it seems to be really important.
It was Zel's spur-of-the-moment idea to let Mona and the others join the Straw Hat Pirates, but it was not for fun, but for a purpose.
Apart from anything else, at least we can establish a good relationship with Princess Vivi of Alabasta. Although we don’t know what the relationship between Lily and Vivi is, it will definitely be of great use, so it’s better to plan ahead.
Cohen's report was over. The Kingdom of Adrian had been developing peacefully in the past two years, and there had not been many major events, so Zel did not need to worry about it.
"Carmen."
"Dad, what's going on?"
"I need you to find someone, the pirate Buena Festa. He's hosted many Pirate Expos and is quite famous in the pirate world. He has the Eternal Pointer, which was secretly recorded by the former Roger Pirates. I need you to get him."
Although he already has two signpost historical texts, one on Zou and the other in Wano Country, the remaining two, one of which is in the hands of the Big Mom Pirates, is not difficult to obtain.
After all, they are relatives, so everything can be discussed.
But the last piece is unsurprisingly in the hands of the World Government, and it is too difficult to obtain.
Since he has the ready-made Eternal Pointer, why does he still need to collect historical texts? He is not Luffy, so why should he enjoy the fun of adventure?
Carmen was also shocked when she heard Zell's order. She didn't expect that the World Tree actually had Raftel's Eternal Pointer.
But since Zel said so, of course he believed it.
"Got it, Dad. I promise to complete the task." Carmen replied.
"Kronos, you stay with Carmen. I want to make sure everything goes well."
Upon hearing this, Kronos immediately replied, "Got it."

Alabasta.
In the dim office, Robin was reading a book, with a mini Q standing on her shoulder, reading together.
Not far away, Mona was scribbling away, muttering, "Life has been a bit dull lately. I've hit a bottleneck with my comic book creation."
