Chapter 129: Straw Hat Pirates Bounty—

"Teacher Rifan, I have prepared all you need–what are you doing?!"

After learning about Rifan's whereabouts from the maid, Vivi trotted all the way to the bathhouse.

She thought there was only one person inside, but when she opened the door, Robin was also there.

Only then did Vivi know why the maid's face was so weird.

Looking at Robin, who was wearing a white bathrobe while pressing Rifan's back with a smile, Vivi blushed immediately.

"You're back, Vivi, is everything ready?" Rifan, who was lying on the massage table, turned his head and glanced at Vivi, as he asked.

"Y-Yes, i-its all ready..." Vivi lowered her head and replied in a low voice.

At the same time, looking at Robin who is so close to Rifan, Vivi couldn't help showing an envious look.

"Now that it's ready, I'll go back first. Robin, stop, you should rest for a while."

Since coming here, Robin has always been dedicated to helping Rifan stretch his body.

Although using Flower-Flower Fruit to massage is very enjoyable for Rifan, even so, Rifan feels that the time is almost up.

"Wait a minute, Teacher Rifan." Robin's mouth curled up slightly and looked at Vivi, who was shy. "It's just right that Vivi came back at the right time. Previously, she said that she wants to learn massage techniques from me, so she can help teacher Rifan. And since we're at it right now, it's just right to guide her. Don't you think so, Vivi?"

 "Eh–?" Civil raised her head in surprise and looked at Robin in confusion and thought; 'When did I say that?'.

When she was about to refute, she saw Robin's expressive eyes.

She looked at Robin, then at Rifan, and finally swallowed what was in her heart, blushing and walking to Robin's side with her hands trembling from nervousness.

Robin: "Vivi, come here, yes, just press like this."

"Also here, Teacher Rifan's body has been trained for a long time, so more strength is okay.'

"And this–"

…

A few hours later, Rifan returned to Dressrosa and continued to tutor Nojiko and the others step by step.

After staying in Alabasta for a while, Vivi and Robin also returned to Dressrosa.

Time passed, in a blink of an eye, the one month time end of the [Swordsman List] is coming to an end.

At the same time, it also ushered in the last challenge.

"You lost, Roronoa Zoro!" In the duel field provided by the Golden List, Vista put his sword in front of Zoro. "You are very good. In such a short time, you have raised your Armament Haki and Kendo to this level. "

"It seems that the training method of Armament Haki given by the golden list is not that simple."

"Of course, there must be your own hard work in this."

The wounded Zoro gritted his teeth and looked at Vista.

"Even at this level, it's still nothing when I can't beat you."

Thinking that he couldn't even win the Resurrection Scroll, Zoro felt gloomy in his heart.

"Don't be too anxious, young man." Vista smiled and put the sword on his shoulder. "As long as the golden list is still on, the resurrection items will definitely appear again."

"Instead of regretting here, it's better to train harder later."

"Maybe, there will be opportunities for you to compete for resurrection items in the future."

Hearing this, Zoro took a deep look at Vista.

Finally, under the judgment of the golden list, Vista and Zoro returned to where they were before.

Naval Headquarters.

"This Zoro's Armament Haki, perhaps the Haki training method from the gold list is really different."

"Sengoku, if you want Smoker to intercept Luffy's group, I'm afraid it won't work."

Tsuru looked at Sengoku who was aside and said. 

"Indeed, looking at Zoro's performance, he alone may cause considerable trouble to Smoker. If Luffy has also learned this level of armament haki, it is almost impossible to stop them at LogueTown."

Zephyr nodded and agreed with Tsuru.

As Smoker's Instructor, Zephyr understands Smoker's capabilities very well.

Although Smoke Fruit's ability is special, facing people who know Armament Haki, especially those who reach the level of Zoro, a carelessness may be the end of him.

"I understand. Fortunately, Garp has set off again. As long as he helps to station East Blue, he will definitely be able to stop Luffy and his gang."

Sengoku said.

"Marshal Sengoku, there is an urgent report from East Blue!" Suddenly, the correspondent ran to Sengoku and reported eagerly.

"East Blue?" Sengoku raised his eyebrows, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. "What happened to East Blue?"

The communicator settled down and replied quickly:

"Report to Marshal Sengoku, shortly after Zoro challenged Vista, Colonel Smoker's warship encountered Luffy's gang!"

"Although Colonel Smoker immediately wanted to intercept Luffy and others, Luffy and another man in a black suit knocked down Colonel Smoker in an instant!"

"Subsequently, the rest of the Marines on Colonel Smoker's ship were defeated!"

"Now, Luffy and his group have gone to the upside-down mountain!"

Hearing the report from the correspondent, Sengoku's eyes widened.

"What! Smoker was knocked down? That Luffy also learned Armament Haki?!"

"How about the casualties!?"

At this time, Sengoku couldn't help feeling regretful.

If he knows that the Armament Haki training method issued by the Golden List has such excellent results, he should've sent a Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral to intercept Luffy and others.

However, before seeing Zoro and Vista battle, neither Sengoku nor anyone else would have thought that a basic Armament Haki training method could enable people who didn't even know about haki in just a month or so to comprehend!

"Report Marshal Sengoku, Colonel Smoker was only injured and fainted.

"Although the remaining Marine soldiers were all injured, they did not die."

The communicator said quickly.

"Sengoku, Zoro and the others have the primary Armament Haki training method, we should try to take it away."

Zephyr said seriously:

"With this thing, we can train more outstanding Marine soldiers, even Marine Admiral at the fastest speed!"

At this time, as the chief Marine Instructor, how could Zephyr not recognize the value of this Armament Haki training method?

Compared to those Haki seeds that can only help individuals grow their strength at one time, for Marines, a set of high-quality training methods is even more commendable!

Zephyr even felt that at this time, perhaps more large organizations had already focused on the Haki training method in the hands of Luffy and his gang.

"Sorry, Garp!" Sengoku said in a low voice, and then said to the correspondent very seriously, "Immediately draw up a reward order for Luffy and his crew!"

"Straw Hat Luffy, a reward of 50– no, make it 70 million Berry!"

"Zoro, a reward of 60 million Berry!"

"There is also a person in a black suit. After the investigation is clear, put a bounty of 50 million Berry on his head!"

"Remember, just live!"

"When arresting them, you must find the primary Armament Haki training method first!"
