Except Maud.

When everyone present, including Saab, was shocked when they saw Aokiji who suddenly appeared.

clang--!

Zoro drew his sword again.

On the other hand, others are preparing for attack as soon as possible.

Bartolomeo's reaction was faster, and he opened the barrier without thinking, protecting everyone in the barrier.

This was his subconscious reaction, but he did not consider that if Aokiji released the air conditioner to freeze the barrier, then even if they were not frozen to death, they would probably have to die of hypoxia.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Looking at the straw hat group who was waiting for the battle in an instant, Aokiji habitually scratched the back of his head.

Judging from the reactions of the Straw Hats, Aokiji realized that the group of people in front of him probably didn't know that he had joined the Mod Pirates.

Thinking of this, Aokiji quickly glanced at Robin with a pale face, and then looked at Maud beside him.

Let’s leave it to Mode to introduce his current identity.

That seems more convincing.

Feeling the gaze from Aokiji, Maud's mouth curled slightly, looked at the overreacting straw hat group, and chuckled: "Don't be so nervous, Kuzan is no longer a naval general, but my crew."

"What!?"

"Aokiji is no longer a naval general!?"

"Hey, compared to this, Aokiji joins the Maud Pirates, which is more important to care about!"

When everyone was shocked to learn that Aokiji had become a member of the Mod Pirates, their eyes almost popped out of their eyes.

This is a navy general!

After withdrawing from the navy, he joined the Mode Pirates and became a member of Mode's command.

Such a thing is simply shocking news for the Straw Hat Pirates at this stage.

Robin looked at Maud incredibly.

When Aokiji appeared just now, Robin thought that it was because of her appearance on the battlefield of Marinfando that Aokiji regretted letting her be free, so he came to him specially.

But I didn't expect that...

The man in front of her, who made her extremely afraid, actually withdrew from the navy and chose to join the Maud Pirates and become a member of Maud's men.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, even she would have thought that such a thing would be a fantasy.

"Well, anyway, as you can see, I am now a pirate of the Maud Pirates."

Looking at the straw hat group whose eyes almost fell out of shock, Aokiji said lazily:

"However, although I am no longer a navy, I will still take action if I see the 'hate' pirates. My captain is still very tolerant about this."

"Um?!"

Hearing Aokiji's words, the straw hat group, who had just relaxed, became tense again in an instant.

Right.

Even if Aokiji gave up his identity as a general of the Navy, he did not stipulate that he, who had become a pirate, could no longer implement his just position...

Moreover, the mutual killing between pirates is the most normal phenomenon.

Thinking of this, the straw hat gang looked at Aokiji with great vigilance.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Feeling the vigilant gaze from the straw hat gang, Aokiji shrugged and said lightly:

"There is no need to be so vigilant. As I said just now, I only attack the 'hate' pirates. As far as I can see, I don't hate you now."

"ah?"

The straw hat gang was shocked, and he didn't expect Aokiji to say such words.

Chopper even twisted the seaweed dance so shyly.

However, only Robin, Zoro, and Sanji, the crew members who were more meticulous in mind, heard the meaning of "current" and "current" in Aokiji's words.

Just as the straw hat group was shaking, the sky seemed to be covered with dark clouds, and large shadows suddenly came.

However, it was Jiaya who controlled the terrifying three-masted ship, fell out of the clouds, and slowly landed towards the island below.

“!!!”

“That’s…”

Seeing the terrifying three-masted ship, the straw hat group was shocked again.

Within half an hour, their hearts suffered multiple stresses.

"Yo hoho!"

At this moment, a loud laugh echoed in the sky.

A black and white figure fell from the side of the terrifying three-masted ship.

Bang bang—

The figure stepped on the moon step, and his movements were as light as if he was stepping on layers of invisible stairs, falling layer by layer in an extremely elegant posture.

The straw hats couldn't help but look at the figure who came with strange laughter.

This figure is naturally Brooke.

The terrifying three-masted ship had not yet completed its landing. He could easily use the moon step, and then landed on the ground after Mod and Aokiji.

"A skeleton that will laugh?"

"It's moving..."

After seeing clearly that the other party was a skeleton, except for Luffy's eyes, Zoro and others all froze.

As for Nami, who is relatively timid, Usopp, who is different from the past, and even Bartolomeo, who usually acts fearlessly, he was so scared that his face turned pale after seeing Brooke.

And the timid Chopper was even more straightforward and was shocked again.

In this way, Brooke, who was already a member of Maud, welcomed the first meeting with the Straw Hats in this way.

Sanji stared at Brook's exquisite and light moon steps, his eyes flashing.

He felt that the moon step was a very useful technique for him.

Under the gaze of everyone, Brooke landed lightly.

Following closely behind was the terrifying three-masted ship slowly landing on one side of the island.

Looking down from a high place, it looks like two tables, one large and one small, are put together.

In fact, since the island was unable to be found for the grand ceremony, Mod actually thought of using Jaya's ability to collect the islands he encountered along the way and then form a super huge island.

However, his idea has not been officially implemented yet.

Anyway, as long as Jiaya's ability accuracy gradually improves, it is not difficult to implement the [Move Islands] project or something.

The terrifying three-masted ship landed steadily on the sea. Then, many crew members of the Maud Pirates led by Jaya Lafayette boarded the island and came to Maud.

"The Straw Hats gang?"

Luo hugged the ghost and cried, looking at Luffy, who was also a supernova.

"what?"

Seeing Tawang's seemingly meaningful gaze, Luffy looked puzzled.

Luo withdrew his gaze, did not look at Luffy more, nor did he speak again.

This behavior caused Luffy to question.

Mode looked up at the early sky. Considering the number of people, he looked at Jia Ya and suggested: "Sister Ya, you can start preparing dinner."

"OK."

Jia Ya nodded slightly.

"dinner?"

Hearing the word "dinner", Luffy suddenly felt energetic and said with great enthusiasm: "If you want to prepare dinner, there is a rhino with long sharp horns in the forest on the island, and their meat is very delicious!"

"Rhino..."

Upon hearing this, Jia Ya turned her head to look at the dense forest in the distance.

The rhino living in the forest aroused Jia Ya's interest.

Sanji suddenly spoke out: "Strictly speaking, you are considered 'guests', so there is no reason to ask guests to prepare meals."

“…”

Upon hearing this, Jia Ya turned to Sanji and said calmly: "You are also a chef."
