That answer scared all the people around. Pirate King was kind of a taboo for many people here and even for pirates. And for many that was just a foolish dream. And this guy who just smiled while answering it didn't seem to be serious at all. With such a casual tone he declared such a big thing.

"Kill this guy!"

"Who does he think he is? Pirate King? Hahahah.... He is a single person and we are a whole bunch of people. Take him down along with the guy who is up there." The crew members shouted loudly as they ran towards Luffy together to put him down and as Luffy was going to punch them, these people suddenly struck by lightning from high up. Alvida, who was ready to take this person down stopped right on her tracks seeing the crew members struck by random lightning.

Alvida got the scare of her life and moved her huge head to look at the source. Ken jumped down and said to Luffy.

"You are slow."

"I could have done the same with one kick." Luffy countered.

"Who are you now?" Alvida asked as she took a step back. These two people were scary to say the least.

"I am Kenny, but people call me Ken. Nice to meet you." Ken said.Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

"You ate a Devil Fruit?"

"Yes. I ate Hito Hito no mi Model: Thor (Human human fruit Model: Thor) and the Captain here ate Gomu Gomu no mi (Rubber Fruit) ." Ken lied on both the names of the devil fruits. What Thor? What Gomu? What a bunch of lies!! Luffy was a little taken aback by the answer but didn't expose him. He knew what not to say.

"I don't know... I don't know..." Koby couldn't reply that he wanted to join the marines as these two were also pirates. It would be suicide if he spoke his dream. Before Ken could answer that he looked in a certain direction. His Observation Haki warned him that the navy was nearby. They would have to escape. There was no point in confronting the navy here.

At least the navy came to take down Alvida so it was better to leave.

"Koby, join us and take us to Shells Town. After that you are free to go." Ken said.

"Shells Town... I am free to go?" Koby was surprised that Ken would even offer that but he knew that he couldn't refuse Ken. Luffy didn't care and looked at the surroundings. The others who were present on the ship were still scared seeing these two.

They declared themselves as pirates and they didn't know how these two demons would treat them.

"The Navy is coming. Hand over these pirates to them. They are alive. And maybe you will get merits. Oh yes, get your treasures back before they are stolen by others." Ken said as he flew away to the ship while holding Koby by his shirt. Luffy looked visibly annoyed seeing this and he jumped on sea and ran over the ocean towards their ship.

The people on the ship were now more shocked. Running over water? Flying without any external help? What the hell are these two? They didn't even get to say their thanks. The Captain of the ship finally got his bearings straight and ordered his crew to tie up the people who were burnt by the lightning.

By miracle they were saved and he could also see three navy ships coming. He asked his crew to signal the navy to come and take away the prisoners. Of course they would have to tell the truth to the navy about what had happened and that would be a headache but that would be a story for another day.

Meanwhile Koby had almost passed out after what happened. He was forcibly taken...no rather flown away from his place to a new ship and after landing on the ship he saw Luffy running on water and boarding the deck.

"Oi Ken, you need to stop doing this."

Ken just shrugged his shoulders and asked Koby to help him take to the Shells Town.
