Chapter 405 Defeating Doflamingo
Chapter 405 Defeating Doflamingo
After defeating Doflamingo, Luffy engaged in a fierce battle with Fujitora. Fujitora was incredibly strong, and his Gravity-Gravity Fruit ability put Luffy in a very difficult situation. Despite Luffy's best efforts, he gradually found himself at a disadvantage under Fujitora's relentless attacks.
Just as Luffy was about to be defeated, a gigantic figure suddenly appeared—it was the giant Hajrudin. Hajrudin forcibly took Luffy away, helping him escape Fujitora's attack range.
After leaving Dressrosa, Luffy and his crew's adventures didn't end. At sea, they encountered representatives from seven factions, including Cavendish and Bartolomeo. These individuals greatly admired Luffy and decided to join the Straw Hat crew. Thus, the Straw Hat Grand Fleet was officially formed, and the representatives of the seven factions drank the "adopted son sake," becoming Luffy's subordinates.
With the formation of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, Luffy's fame grew. His bounty soared to a staggering 5 million Berries, making him a thorn in the side of the World Government.
As they continued their voyage, Luffy and his crew arrived at Zou Island. They boarded Bartolomeo's ship and successfully landed on this mysterious island. In Zou, they received a warm welcome from the Wool Kingdom.
In the Wool Kingdom, Luffy and his crew learned a great deal of important information. They learned about Sanji's situation; he had been taken to Whole Cake Island and was facing immense danger. Furthermore, they learned about the Road Poneglyphs and the current state of Wano Country.
To rescue Sanji, the Straw Hat crew decided to split into two teams. One team headed to Whole Cake Island, while the other went to Wano Country. Luffy, Nami, Chopper, Brook, Pedro, and Pekoms formed the team heading to Whole Cake Island, riding the dragon drawn by Kanjuro, and embarking on their journey to save Sanji.
Whole Cake Island retrieves Sanji and Tank Man Luffy, who are then tricked into going to the Temptation Forest by Charlotte Pudding. In the forest, Chopper and Carrot are trapped inside a mirror by Charlotte Pudding.
Immediately afterwards, Luffy fearlessly faced Charlotte Cracker, one of the Sweet Commanders, and a thrilling battle ensued. In the intense fight, Luffy displayed unwavering fighting spirit and astonishing strength, ultimately defeating Cracker.
However, as Luffy and Nami continued their journey, they unexpectedly encountered Sanji. Sanji suddenly demanded that Luffy return immediately and even attacked him. Faced with Sanji's hostility, Luffy did not retaliate, but firmly stated that he would wait for Sanji's return.
Unfortunately, Luffy and Nami later encountered the Big Mom Pirates' vengeful army. After a fierce battle, they were ultimately defeated and imprisoned. Fortunately, Jinbe arrived in time and successfully rescued them.
Meanwhile, after learning Pudding's true identity, Sanji arrived at the place where he was fighting Luffy, bringing with him a carefully prepared meal. When he saw Luffy waiting for him on an empty stomach, a complex mix of emotions welled up inside him.
Afterwards, everyone finally reunited. At Jinbe's suggestion, Luffy decided to ally with the Flame Tank Pirates, who intended to assassinate Big Mom, and launch a joint operation.
After the tea party began, everyone cleverly used Brulee's ability to create countless clones of Luffy, instantly plunging the entire scene into chaos. Just as Luffy was about to take advantage of the situation to attack Carmel's photograph, Katakuri blocked his path.
At the critical moment, Jinbe appeared like a hero and saved Luffy from danger. Not only that, Jinbe also made a final stand with Big Mom in front of everyone and officially announced that he had joined the Straw Hat crew and become one of them.
Brook smashed the nun's photo, an act that thoroughly enraged Big Mom. Her emotions instantly spiraled out of control, and she roared furiously. Accompanying her eerie roar, a powerful surge of Conqueror's Haki swept in like a storm, instantly destroying the KX rocket launcher and the mirror. The Allied forces were forced into a corner by this overwhelming force, forced to seek refuge in the massive fortress formed by Capone Bege.
However, Big Mom's attack did not stop. Her strange sounds and the wind pressure created by her Conqueror's Haki relentlessly battered the fortress, making it teeter on the verge of collapse. Just at this critical moment, Sanji and Germa arrived in time to join the Allied Forces in fighting Big Mom.
Faced with such a formidable foe, Luffy unhesitatingly activated Gear Fourth and confronted Big Mom. His attacks rained down on Big Mom like a storm, successfully inflicting pain on her, but the time limit for Gear Fourth quickly expired, and Luffy's body returned to normal, allowing Big Mom to easily capture him.
Just as everyone was in despair, the Tamatebako suddenly exploded. This unexpected event caused the entire castle to collapse, and Luffy and the others seized the opportunity to break free from Big Mom's grasp and desperately escape the scene. At this time, Big Mom, who had suffered a food craving attack, had completely lost her mind. She frantically chased after Luffy and the others, determined to kill them.
To protect his crewmates, Luffy resolutely decides to enter the Mirror World and engage in a life-or-death battle with Charlotte Katakuri. During the fierce fight, Luffy's Observation Haki continuously improves, eventually reaching a level where he can see parts of the future.
With this powerful ability, Luffy, like a god of war, withstood Katakuri's fierce, storm-like attacks with overwhelming force. Every punch and kick from Katakuri contained boundless power, but Luffy was fearless, using his own body to withstand it all.
In the fierce battle, Luffy gradually found Katakuri's weakness. Seizing the opportunity, he unleashed his full power, delivering a fatal blow to Katakuri. This attack was like a thunderbolt, unstoppable, striking Katakuri's vitals directly.
With Katakuri's fall, his undefeated myth came to an end. Luffy's victory shocked everyone. Under the cover of Jinbe and the others, Luffy successfully escaped Whole Cake Island.
Morgans, in his report, went so far as to call Luffy the "Fifth Emperor of the Sea," a title that undoubtedly represents a high level of recognition of Luffy's strength. At the same time, Luffy's bounty skyrocketed, reaching a staggering 15 billion!
However, Luffy's adventure did not end there. When he arrived in Wano Country, he encountered a sudden whirlpool. This whirlpool separated him from his crew, leaving him stranded alone in Wano Country.
In Wano Country, Luffy encounters an 8-year-old girl named Tama. Tama's village, Amigasa, is facing a huge crisis, and Luffy loses his Vivre Card in the process of rescuing her.
To help Tama, Luffy disguises himself as a ronin and takes the name "Luffy Taro." He takes Tama, who has been poisoned after drinking contaminated river water, to seek medical help everywhere. During this process, Luffy reunites with Zoro, and the two face many difficulties and challenges together.
During this time, they also had a brief standoff with Basil Hawkins. Hawkins, as Kaido's subordinate, harbored hostility towards Luffy and his crew. However, Luffy did not back down, displaying fearless courage.
Unfortunately, Tama was kidnapped by Holdem's men. Upon learning this, Luffy was frantic and immediately rushed to Holdem's stronghold, engaging him in a thrilling battle.
Ultimately, Luffy, with his overwhelming strength, successfully defeated Holdem and rescued Tama. Afterwards, Luffy brought Tama to Oden Castle to reunite with his crew. There, they discussed their plan to defeat Kaido, and a new adventure was about to begin…
Just then, a powerful aura suddenly swept over them, and to everyone's astonishment, it was Kaido, who had also gotten drunk and transformed into a giant dragon! Upon seeing this, Luffy thought his companions were in danger, and his anger was instantly ignited. Without hesitation, he unleashed Gear Fourth and went all out to meet Kaido.
However, despite Luffy's formidable Gear Fourth, his attacks were insignificant against an opponent as powerful as Kaido. With a mere flick of his dragon claw, Kaido sent Luffy flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground and losing consciousness.
When Luffy woke up again, he found himself and Kid imprisoned in the same cell. In this dark and hopeless place, Luffy did not lose heart, but instead worked hard to improve his Armament Haki under Hyogoro's guidance.
Days passed, and Luffy's strength continued to grow. Finally, after Big Mom wreaked havoc in Udon, Luffy seized the opportunity to successfully escape from prison. He joined forces with Kid and the others to invade Onigashima.
On Onigashima, Luffy meets Kaido's daughter, Yamato. Yamato deeply admires Luffy's courage and determination and decides to join him in storming the Flame Festival to declare war on Charlotte Linlin and Kaido.
With the cover of their companions, Luffy and his crew successfully reached the top of Onigashima. There, they joined Zoro, Kid, Killer, and Law to confront Kaido and Charlotte Linlin.
However, when Luffy saw the Nine Red Scabbards lying on the ground, his anger reignited. He promised Kin'emon that he would save Wano Country, get Law to move them out, and then charged towards Kaido without hesitation, engaging in a breathtaking battle… Then, without hesitation, Luffy activated Gear Third. His body rapidly expanded, his muscles taut, as if filled with boundless power. Immediately afterward, he unleashed his signature technique—the "Gum-Gum Fire Pistol"!
This move was incredibly powerful. Luffy's arm stretched out like rubber, engulfed in flames, and hurtled straight towards Kaido like a burning cannonball.
Kaido was completely unprepared for Luffy's sudden use of such a powerful attack. Caught off guard, he was sent flying backward and crashed heavily to the ground.
Looking at the fallen Kaido, Luffy was filled with confidence and domineering spirit. He declared loudly, "My name is Monkey D. Luffy, and I am the man who will surpass you and become the Pirate King!"
Kaido struggled to his feet, looking at the spirited Luffy before him, and couldn't help but be amazed by his growth. He saw in Luffy the shadows of some of the strong fighters he had once clashed with, which gave him a new understanding of Luffy's strength.
However, Kaido was not intimidated by Luffy's declaration. He quickly adjusted his state and unleashed his ultimate move - Thunder Bagua!
This attack was incredibly powerful and fast, like lightning. Although Luffy anticipated Kaido's attack, Kaido's speed was simply too great, and he couldn't completely dodge it. He was hit in the head and suffered a minor injury.
Nevertheless, Luffy's performance earned Kaido's praise. Kaido realized that this young pirate had grown to a point where he could no longer be ignored.
After a fierce battle, Luffy and his crew realized that facing the combined forces of Kaido and Big Mom, they were in a very difficult situation, as if they were in hell.
To defeat these two powerful enemies, Luffy decided to fight Kaido alone to buy time for his crew. He launched a series of attacks, keeping Kaido busy.
Luffy realized that Kaido was no longer willing to take his attacks lightly, which made him even more confident in his strength. However, just as he was preparing to launch his next attack, Kaido suddenly used the technique "Resurrected King: Naraku," which struck Luffy directly in the head, knocking him unconscious.
Meanwhile, Zorro and the other three joined forces to fight against Big Mom, unleashing their individual strengths in a thrilling battle.
After a thrilling and intense battle, Zorro and his companions, having endured countless hardships, finally managed to defeat Big Mom and drive her off Onigashima. Seeing Big Mom fleeing in disarray, Kid and Killer didn't hesitate to give her a chase, determined not to give her a moment's respite.
Just then, Kaido, seeing that Luffy had lost consciousness, was about to deliver the fatal blow. However, at this critical moment, Zoro and Law arrived like divine intervention, blocking Kaido's fatal attack.
