"Big brother, what brings you here?!"
"Big Brother!?" The group exclaimed in unison.
……
"What? I thought we were going to die, hahaha."
After the misunderstanding was cleared up, Usopp laughed without any restraint, "Speaking of which, Luffy, you actually have such a powerful older brother? I've read the newspapers too; this is one of the biggest events that has shaken the world recently."
“Brother Li Wei, speaking of which, why did Alabasta go up into the sky? The newspapers said it might be due to some special weather conditions or something, but the explanation is vague.”
Li Wei replied while munching on the fish, "I'll send it to heaven."
"Holy crap?!" Usopp sprayed fruit wine all over Luffy's face.
"Is this something a human could do?"
Li Wei shrugged.
"Hey, hey, hey, there are still several dishes to be served, so eat as much as you like." Sanji brought out two more dishes with both hands and placed them on the table. Now the table was full of all kinds of dishes, including glistening fish, fragrant stir-fried meat, and delicious soup...
It has to be said that Sanji's cooking skills are truly top-notch; Li Wei rarely gets to eat such excellent food.
After serving the dishes, Sanji went back to the kitchen to continue cooking, and before leaving, he greeted Li Wei with a big smile.
"Brother Luffy, please don't be shy, eat as much as you want, there's more if you're not full!"
The attitude is completely different now compared to when it started.
"This cook..." Zoro scoffed, prompting Sanji to glare at him as if he wanted to punch him.
"If the Navy knew that you sent Alabasta to his death, your bounty would probably be very high..." Usopp asked curiously.
"Could it go up another hundred million?"
Robin shook his head, then hesitated, "It's hard to say. By the way... Alabasta..."
"Historical texts? Go ahead and look them up."
Li Wei decisively said what Robin wanted to say but didn't quite know how to say.
Historical texts are very important, and even though Li Wei is Luffy's older brother, it was only their first meeting, which is why Robin was a little hesitant to speak.
"Hahaha..." Luffy laughed after swallowing the meat in his mouth, "My older brother is very easy to talk to."
"Thank you." Robin smiled happily.
Then it occurred to her, "No wonder Crocodile disbanded Baroque Works and left Alabasta."
"Crocodile? The Shichibukai who was just removed from his post?" Nami was surprised; she had never heard Robin mention this before.
Soon, Robin revealed the whole story.
"Hahaha..." Luffy was still laughing there.
Nami, unable to stand it any longer, immediately punched Luffy on the head, saying, "Go eat your food."
"Oh..." Luffy felt wronged.
"By the way, Luffy's older brother, what brings you here?" Robin changed the subject. "It can't just be a simple visit to Luffy, right?"
"Yeah, yeah, big brother, is there anything I can help you with?" Luffy asked excitedly, seemingly sensing that something was up.
"Luffy, your flesh is about to spit out!" Nami glared at Luffy, making him quickly swallow the meat.
"It's not that I need your help, but I'm planning to hold a celebration in Alabasta in a while and would like to invite you."
Li Wei smiled. Being with this group of people was a unique experience. They were unusually serious, not neurotic, and didn't act like elders should.
"Please come over if you have time."
"Oh, wow, Big Brother's throwing a banquet!" Luffy's eyes lit up. "Of course we're going! There'll be lots of delicious food!"
"When?" Nami asked. She had already learned about the misunderstanding in Cocoyasi Village and cleared it up. It turned out that Li Wei and A Long had made a pact not to harm the lives of the villagers of Cocoyasi Village.
“Here’s an invitation.”
Li Wei conjured an exquisite invitation card out of thin air with his right hand and handed it to Nami.
"Keep it safe. You'll need this to get to Alabasta. Robin, just find some time to look at the historical texts."
“Speaking of which, this is a rare opportunity,” Li Wei suggested, “How about we help you train them?”
PAS: The excessive daily routine is over. Hmm, I feel like I need to adjust things a bit. I can't always be playing games. I need to relax a little sometimes, cough cough...
Chapter 413 [Fourth Update] With a wave of his hand, he brought an island.
Li Wei offered to train them, which naturally delighted them. In the eyes of the Straw Hat Pirates, it was a very lucky thing to receive guidance from a great pirate with a bounty of 300 million, and even hear from Robin that the bounty would increase.
Especially after the events in Loguetown, where Luffy was almost executed and they were unable to save him, they felt a sense of powerlessness.
It was this incident that made them realize their true capabilities and the urgent need to improve.
"Luffy's older brother, won't this delay you?" Robin asked, being quite attentive, worried that Li Wei might be distracted from his important business.
"It's alright. It's called training, but don't imagine it will take a long time. In fact, it will be quick."
"I see."
After hearing this, Robin thought that Li Wei was just giving them some initial training, not in-depth training. However, this was still good, as it would greatly help their strength.
At the same time, it's a bit of a pity for Robin. It would have been great if he could have received more guidance from Li Wei, which would have been very helpful in improving their skills.
Only after the training was over would Robin realize just how outrageous her training was.
"That's settled then. I'll find a suitable place."
Li Wei thought for a moment and said, "How about we go to the Devil's Triangle?"
Upon hearing this, Usopp exclaimed in alarm, "Forget it, this name is terrifying just to hear! Luffy's big brother, let's go somewhere else, okay?"
"Yeah, yeah, that place sounds dangerous just from the name," Nami forced a smile. "Luffy's big brother, let's go somewhere safer."
"With me here, what's there to be afraid of?" Li Wei said matter-of-factly.
"Luffy's big brother, I have a heart condition and can't take being threatened," Usopp pleaded, almost bursting into tears.
Li Wei glanced at Usopp, paused for a moment, and said, "Alright, let's change it then."
The thought of having to watch Usopp constantly crying his eyes out once he entered Gecko Moria's territory, and how disgusting he would look in person... made him decide against it.
Anyway, Luffy and his crew will eventually sail there, and due to the power of the plot, Luffy will also use a Poké Ball to catch a Skeleton Pokémon as a new partner.
Upon hearing Li Wei's agreement, Nami and Usopp breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Sanji stepped out, his expression full of lewdness, and said, "Nami-chan, don't be afraid. I will protect you no matter where you are."
After saying that, Sanji undoubtedly got punched by Nami.
Should we go to the Sky Island?
Li Weigang had that thought, but then gave up. He felt that if they went to Skypiea now, there would be far fewer of Luffy and his crew, and they would have to endure the moving and awe-inspiring experience of witnessing the legend.
Thinking about it...
"Fine, I'll build an island instead."
"What!?"
Everyone was quietly watching Li Wei, who was deep in thought, but they were all startled when they heard him say those words.
"Build, build an island?!" Nami exclaimed in surprise, covering her mouth with both hands.
"You can actually do something like this?" Robin was also incredulous.
"Build, build an island!" Luffy's eyes lit up. "As expected of the eldest brother!"
Zoro lowered his hand from his food and gave Li Wei a deep look.
He sensed that Luffy's older brother was far more extraordinary than they had imagined.
After everyone finished their meal, Li Wei led them to the deck outside the boat. The Straw Hat crew stood behind Li Wei, waiting to see how he would build the island.
"Actually, there are several methods for island building."
Li Wei counted on his fingers and said, "The first method is to create it out of thin air. The second method is to gather the surrounding sand and gravel and forcibly condense it. The third method is simpler: artificially promote natural formation by causing the seabed/volcano to erupt and accelerate the condensation."
"Which one do you want to see?" Li Wei asked them as casually as if he were asking them what they wanted to eat that day.
"Luffy's big brother, can we see the first one?" Robin thought for a moment and asked tentatively. She could imagine the latter two, but the first one... was beyond her imagination, so she was very curious.
How exactly can an island be created out of thin air? What kind of process and capabilities are required?
Not only Robin, but everyone else had similar questions.
"Ok."
Li Wei nodded without hesitation, then waved his hand in front of him.
He waved his hand and it was over.
An island appeared.
The Straw Hat crew: ? ? ? ? ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
They weren't shocked or horrified; instead, they were filled with question marks, looking like a confused person with a blank expression.
"Is this what they call creating an island out of thin air???"
"Yeah, what else?"
"It was created out of thin air to begin with, what else do you want to see..."
Li Wei was speechless. "But this island isn't big enough. Let's make it bigger."
With another wave of his hand, the island tripled in size, becoming the size of a small town.
"It lacks vitality."
Waving its paws again.
The island is green all over.
"What's wrong with you all? Why are you all kneeling except for Luffy?" Li Wei asked curiously. "Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, no, Luffy's older brother, please let us talk to you like this from now on."
They were truly convinced.
For them, this was far beyond the realm of shock and horrification, so those exaggerated exclamations and such were not expressed.
They were instantly stunned by the shock.
After finally calming down, Li Wei led them to the island to begin formal training. Having witnessed Li Wei's miraculous skills, they were all full of anticipation for the training.
Damn it, they suspect that it would take several of the Seven Warlords, Admirals, and Four Emperors working together to suppress this big shot.
They're really not to be trifled with.
However, the stronger Li Wei is as Luffy's older brother, the stronger their underlying sense of security becomes. This is especially evident in Nami, Usopp, and Robin. Zoro, Sanji, and Luffy, on the other hand, don't seem to care much about this, as they all have a strong mentality.
It's normal for Robin to have this mentality; you can guess it from the Water Seven arc, when she was taken away by CP9 without Luffy's knowledge.
She was actually very afraid of implicating others, but if her partners were strong enough, her worries would lessen or even disappear.
After everyone landed on the island, the scenery surprised them. It was not an island that could be created with a wave of the hand. Instead, it was a beautiful island that had been sculpted by nature over a long period of time, with abundant freshwater resources, birds and animals, and various flowers, trees and plants.
Li Wei's methods once again overturned their understanding.
"Luckily, you're Luffy's older brother, not our enemy," Robin couldn't help but sigh. With such a powerful enemy as an enemy, she simply couldn't muster the thought of fighting back.
“Even if you flatter me, I won’t go easy on you during training, unless you sexually harass me.” Li Wei said seriously, making Robin very embarrassed. She didn’t expect Luffy’s older brother to have such an unserious side.
PAS: Ugh... There's more interactive chapters than I expected... Calculation error...
I should be pretty sure to get five updates today, but I wonder if I can challenge the legendary six...
These mysterious sensitive words are truly baffling...
Chapter 414 [Fifth Watch] A natural disaster has decreed that a banquet invitation must be extended and attendance is mandatory!
However, Li Wei was only teasing him a little, so Robin's embarrassment quickly passed. Li Wei was quite concerned about maintaining this big brother image because it was full of novelty.
He has been a teacher, a good student, a big brother, and has worked in many industries. He is particularly interested in and cares about anything that can bring him a sense of novelty.
