Chapter 420 The French Family
Upon learning that Usopp had been beaten up and robbed of 1 million Berries by the Franky family, Luffy and his crew were furious. Without hesitation, they followed Luffy, Zoro, and Chopper to the Franky family's headquarters.
When they arrived, they found the Franky Family members cheering and celebrating their "victory." Luffy and his crew were enraged by this and immediately launched into a fierce battle, fighting to the death against the Franky Family.
In the midst of this chaotic battle, some unpleasantness occurred between Luffy and Usopp. It turned out that the Going Merry was old and dilapidated and needed to be replaced. Luffy believed this was necessary, but Usopp, with his deep affection for the Going Merry, strongly opposed its replacement.
The argument between the two intensified, their emotions escalating like a volcano. At this tense moment, Sanji stepped forward, knowing that if Luffy were to actually say, "Quit the pirate crew," it would be a catastrophic blow to the entire team.
However, Usopp completely failed to understand Sanji's good intentions. He remained stubborn and insisted on fighting Luffy. Despite Sanji and the other crew members' earnest attempts to dissuade him, Usopp was unmoved and determined to have the duel.
Finally, aboard the Going Merry, Luffy and Usopp engaged in a breathtaking duel. Both gave it their all, each move brimming with power and determination. This duel was not merely a contest between the two individuals, but also a fierce clash of their inner conflicts.
After the duel, the scene was a mess, and Sanji and the others watched with heavy hearts. They silently left the Going Merry, leaving the ship that carried countless memories to Usopp.
The next day, Sanji and Chopper embarked on a journey to find the missing Robin. They inquired everywhere, leaving no stone unturned. After a series of arduous efforts, they finally found Robin in a remote place.
However, when Sanji tried to persuade Robin to rejoin the crew, she refused without hesitation. Faced with Robin's resolute attitude, Sanji felt incredibly helpless and disappointed.
In this situation, Sanji had no choice but to have Chopper tell Luffy and the others what had happened, while he himself resolved to sneak onto the sea train carrying Robin and bring her back no matter what. On the turbulent sea, a mysterious ship was quietly sailing into the distance. The people on board harbored their own secrets and had their own purposes. And in some corner of this ship, Sanji was secretly plotting a rescue operation; his goal was to free the imprisoned Robin.
Before leaving, Sanji left Nami a letter and a Den Den Mushi. The letter detailed his plan of action, including how to infiltrate the enemy's lair and the potential dangers. He trusted that Nami would understand his decision and offer support if necessary.
On the vast, boundless sea, a high-speed train, like a steel behemoth, sped past. This train was the Sea Train, and its appearance drew gasps of amazement from those around it. Inside one of its carriages, a thrilling story was unfolding.
Sanji, the gentleman with superb culinary skills and impeccable manners, is currently moving through carriage seven. His movements are swift and agile, like a cheetah chasing its prey. His goal is to break through these carriages one by one from back to front, ultimately finding and rescuing Robin.
After a fierce battle, Sanji successfully breached the sixth carriage. However, there he unexpectedly discovered Usopp and Franky tied up. Usopp still wore a terrified expression, while Franky looked rather disheveled.
Sanji rescued the two without hesitation, and the three of them immediately formed a makeshift team. Usopp displayed his sniping talent at a crucial moment, quickly picking up his sniper rifle and transforming into a sniper king, joining Sanji and Franky in Robin's rescue operation.
They meticulously planned and cleverly laid a trap, successfully luring a large number of agents and naval personnel into the last two carriages. The plan was flawless; the enemy was completely unaware that they had fallen into a desperate situation.
While the enemy was still caught up in the excitement of the chase, they acted decisively, separating the two carriages without hesitation. With a loud bang, the carriages were forcibly torn apart, and the enemy was mercilessly thrown into the turbulent sea.
Sanji did not stop there; he continued to forge ahead like a ferocious beast, fearlessly advancing. He had only one goal—to breach the fifth carriage.
After a fierce battle, Sanji finally broke through the defenses of the fifth carriage. However, instead of advancing, he chose to remain in the fourth carriage, the dining car. There, he would face CP7 agent Wang Ze alone, and a thrilling showdown was about to unfold.
In this life-or-death struggle, Sanji displayed his astonishing "butcher's skill" for the first time. Each of his cuts was as precise and deadly as a butcher carving up an ox, drawing everyone's attention. Although Nozomi was also an experienced agent, he seemed somewhat powerless in the face of Sanji's superb skills.
Sanji's swordsmanship came down like a whirlwind, leaving Wangze struggling to keep up. But he was, after all, a well-trained agent, and after a brief period of adjustment, he gradually regained his footing and engaged in a fierce back-and-forth battle with Sanji.
However, Sanji's strength far surpassed that of Wangze. Under the continuous attacks, Wangze's defense gradually showed weaknesses. Sanji seized this opportunity and unleashed a magnificent "SHOOT" attack, a strike as powerful as thunder, directly hitting Wangze's vitals.
Wangze was severely injured and collapsed to the ground, unable to get up again. Sanji won the duel with an absolute advantage, and his "Butcher's Skill" swordsmanship became famous as a result.
Meanwhile, on another battlefield, Franky also triumphed in his battle against Nero. He suppressed Nero with overwhelming firepower and ultimately defeated him.
After completing their mission, Franky quickly reunited with Sanji in the third carriage. The two exchanged a smile and faced CP9 in the second carriage, preparing for an even fiercer battle. Just then, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity flashed across the sky like a shooting star, appearing before the Sniper King. A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes, as if the entire world had stopped for him. Without the slightest hesitation, he pounced on this fleeting opportunity with the speed of a cheetah.
In a flash, his movements were as swift as lightning, almost impossible to catch. Every action was precise and decisive, without the slightest hesitation. In that breathtaking moment, he successfully rescued Robin from the enemy's clutches.
However, in this tense and suffocating moment, Franky made a decision that left everyone speechless. His gaze fell firmly on the crucial part connecting the second and third carriages, and a surge of resolute courage welled up within him.
To ensure the smooth separation of the third carriage from the second, Franky stepped forward without hesitation and resolutely chose to sacrifice himself. He knew full well what this decision meant, but he felt no fear or hesitation.
Frankie's sacrifice was undoubtedly immense; his body was instantly torn apart in the flames of the explosion, turning into countless fragments. But his courage and decisiveness bought precious time for everyone, allowing the third carriage to finally separate successfully from the second.
This crucial action, like the dawn before sunrise, laid a solid foundation for subsequent developments. However, what was completely unexpected was that Bruno, this treacherous and cunning enemy, used his Door-Door Fruit ability to sneak into the third carriage like a ghost.
Before Sanji and Sniper King could react, he launched a sudden sneak attack like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, snatching Robin away again with lightning speed.
Despite this unexpected turn of events, Sanji and Sniper King were not discouraged in the slightest. They quickly adjusted their mindset and boarded the "Rocket Man" sea train that Luffy and the others were traveling on without hesitation. They sped along and finally arrived safely at Enies Lobby.
On Enies Lobby, the atmosphere was extremely tense, and a fierce battle was about to break out. Barry, the Franky family, and others provided strong cover for the Straw Hat crew, helping them successfully overcome numerous obstacles and reach the roof of the courthouse, where they faced off against CP9.
Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate and tensions were running high, Robin suddenly shouted those heart-stirring words: "I want to live!" This shout was like a lightning bolt piercing the night sky, instantly igniting the fuse of battle. Inspired by Robin's courage, the Straw Hat crew charged towards CP9 without hesitation, and a thrilling and intense battle officially began.
Inside the Tower of Justice, Sanji and Jabra engaged in a life-or-death struggle. The two exchanged blows, neither giving an inch, each move brimming with power and skill. Sanji unleashed his signature technique—Diable Jambe—while Jabra countered in his werewolf form. Sparks flew, and the battle was incredibly intense.
However, Sanji had an even more important task on his mind—finding the key to Robin's handcuffs. Even during the fierce battle, he never forgot this crucial objective. After a long and arduous search, Sanji finally arrived at Kalifa's room. Because of his adherence to chivalry and his refusal to kick a woman, he was at a clear disadvantage in his fight with Kalifa.
Ultimately, Sanji was defeated by Kalifa, severely injured and manipulated into a bubble doll by her powers. As he fell from the building, landing right in front of Chopper and Nami, Nami unhesitatingly stepped forward to fight Kalifa in Sanji's place. During the fierce battle between Nami and Kalifa, a rampaging Chopper suddenly burst into Kalifa's room and accidentally destroyed her bathtub. With the bathtub breaking, a massive torrent of water gushed out, instantly flooding the entire room.
In this chaotic moment, Sanji, who had been trapped by Kalifa's Bubble-Bubble Fruit power and whose body had turned into a bubble form, was finally freed due to the influx of water.
Immediately afterward, Sanji acted swiftly, rescuing Nami and Sniper King from Jabra's attack. After freeing them, Sanji displayed his formidable fighting skills, successfully mastering the "Diable Jambe" and using it to defeat Jabra.
Meanwhile, Robin's handcuffs were also removed. However, at that moment, the Navy suddenly launched a Buster Call on Enies Lobby. Faced with such a dire situation, Sanji and the others were plunged into immense danger.
Fortunately, they were rescued by Kokoro. Kokoro piloted a lifeboat and rescued Sanji and the others from the danger of Enies Lobby. On the lifeboat, Sanji and the others were reunited with Robin, and everyone felt incredibly relieved.
While waiting for Luffy's arrival, Sanji seized a crucial opportunity and decisively closed the Gate of Justice. This action not only stopped the Navy's pursuit but also bought Luffy precious time.
In the end, Luffy defeated Rob Lucci and successfully escaped Enies Lobby. Seeing this, Nami and the others jumped into the sea without hesitation and were rescued by the Going Merry.
With the Gates of Justice closed, the ocean currents created massive whirlpools. These whirlpools prevented the navy's shells from accurately hitting the Going Merry, providing a strong guarantee for the Straw Hat crew's escape.
With the help of Franky's Ludicrous Cannon, the Straw Hat crew successfully broke through the Navy's encirclement and escaped Enies Lobby.
Tragically, after escaping Enies Lobby, the Going Merry, under immense pressure, broke in two. Faced with this harsh reality, the Straw Hat crew decided to bid their final farewell to the Going Merry through cremation.
