One Punch of Justice

Chapter 14: The Straw Hats and the Green-haired Warrior

The citizens voices confirmed Morgans crimes. They hailed the arrival of justice, but Tashigi couldnt find happiness in it. After all, the disaster was caused by the Marines themselves. The cheering felt like a harsh reminder of their own shortcomings.

Raise your head, Tashigi, Saitamas voice sounded beside her. We cant change what happened, but we can stop it. We must do the right thing now. Its never too late to solve the problem once and for all Justice!

..

Its an internal Marine affair. Obviously, its inappropriate and dangerous to bring a little girl, Saitama thought to himself before sending Rika home. He then proceeded to the 153rd Branch base.

To his surprise, the base was in chaos.

Gomu Gomu no

BAZOOKA!

Accompanied by screams from the base, a tall man with an iron jaw and a huge steel axe for a right hand smashed through the gate and fell heavily in front of Saitama.

Saitama and Tashigi recognized the man with the axe. He was familiar to them.

The soldiers behind them were shocked by what had just happened.

Helmeppo, who had been rolling on the floor crying, was so frightened that he couldnt believe his eyes. He stared in disbelief at the man before him and exclaimed, D-dad?!

Thats right! This beaten guy is the commander of the 153rd Branch, Axe-Hand Morgan! Tashigi whispered in shock. But as a captain who has fought in countless wars, to be humiliated like this The person who did this must be crazy and incredibly powerful to beat and fly a high-ranking Marine soldier within a Marine base!

Before anyone could respond, a teenage boy with a straw hat, accompanied by another person with green hair carrying three swords at his waist, rushed out of the base and stood in front of Saitamas group.

Damn! More soldiers! the swordsman exclaimed, as he noticed the Marine troops gathering around them. His eyes flashed with ruthless determination as he drew his three Katana swords from their sheaths in an instant.

With the back of his sword pointed at Saitama, he declared, Do not block my way!

What?! Saitamas expression remained unemotional.

-Wosh-

Before anyone could react, Tashigi had moved in front of Saitama and blocked Zoros attack with her sword, Shigure.

I wont let you hurt Saitama-san, Tashigi declared, her eyes burning with a fierce determination.

Zoro was stunned by Tashigis sudden appearance and her ability to block his attack. But what shocked him even more was her face.

But its impossible! She looks like Kuina, the girl I grew up with! he exclaimed in disbelief.

Whats the matter with you, Zoro? the straw hat boy asked, noticing his friends stunned expression.

He quickly raised his legs to prevent the surrounding soldiers from rushing up to catch him.

Gomu Gomu no WHIP!! Suddenly, the boy stretched his leg and kicked in a wide circle towards the soldiers.

But before he could make contact, Saitama effortlessly caught his foot with one hand.

Hey! a slap sound echoed as the boys attack was stopped.

Thats bad, the boy muttered, looking at his foot in Saitamas grip. He raised his fist and quickly hammered towards Saitama with amazing elasticity: Let me go! Gomu Gomu no PISTOL!!!.

Saitama froze as he suddenly realized that he recognized the boys face. That boyhe looks familiar! But whereOUCH! He was interrupted by the kids fist connecting with his face before he could remember where he had seen him before.

The impact of the boys fist hitting Saitamas bald head was so strong that it caused it to recoil like a rubber ball. The boys hand swelled up like a pumpkin from the force of the blow.

Ouch, that hurts! exclaimed the boy as he covered his right fist. Wait a minute, I have a rubber body, why did that hurt?

Rubber body? Saitama thought to himself. Could it be that he has a rubber ability? Dont tell me that hes

To be sure, Saitama gently asked, Hey, kid, whats your name?

Luffys face lit up with a wide, toothy grin as he replied, Uh?! Im Luffy!

So, youre Garps grandson! exclaimed Saitama upon hearing Luffys name.

Luffy suddenly appeared to be at a loss for words and stared at Saitamas face intently.

He stroked his chin thoughtfully and murmured, Hmmmlooking at you now, I feel like Ive seen you beforeand that bald head looks really familiar! But aside from Grandpa, I dont know any other Marines. Who are you, bald man?

Saitamas face twisted with frustration. Please, stop calling me Bald, he pleaded.

As they were discussing, Luffys face suddenly lit up as if he had an epiphany. He paused for a moment, and then clapped his hands together in excitement.

However, his expression quickly turned to one of horror as he pointed a trembling finger at Saitamas head.

Its you! he exclaimed, his voice wavering with fear. The The

As Saitama looked down at the young boy, a sense of recognition slowly dawned upon him.

He finally remembers me, Saitama thought to himself. Its true that many years have passed, but

The bald Devil!!! He cried out, cutting Saitama off mid-sentence.

Saitamas frustration was evident on his face. Its definitely him This kind of stupidity only exists in Garps family! This kid must be Garps grandson Luffy.

In the blink of an eye, Saitama was standing in front of Luffy. With a single punch, he knocked the young pirate unconscious and scooped him up by his red vest.

I didnt expect that, Said with a sigh of helplessness as he scratched his head. This kid really went to the sea

He paused for a moment, lost in thought. He needs to be sent to Garp-san. Its really a mess, he continued. But I havent seen Ace or Sabo in years. I dont know if theyve snuck off to the sea, too

..

Meanwhile, Roronoa and Tashigi had engaged in a fierce sword fight.

Though Tashigi was skilled, Zoros strength was greater. However, after three days without food or water and catching a glimpse of his opponents face which reminded him of an old friend, Zoro found himself in a dilemma. He was unable to concentrate fully on the fight.

Damn it! he muttered in frustration as he watched his new captain being taken away.

Despite his fatigue and weakness, Roronoa pushed Tashigi aside and saw an opportunity. He charged towards Saitama like a tiger, shouting, Let him go!

-Tree-sword style!-

Tora Gari!

Roronoa realized he only had one chance to strike with the marine officers formidable strength in front of him. Their blades clashed, but neither attack was deadly.

As Tashigi tried to block him again, she realized she was too late and screamed a warning. Be careful, Commodore!!!

As three sharp blades came towards him, Saitama turned around, startled. What are you trying to do!? he exclaimed.

Suddenly, a green-haired person sprang into the sky. Roronoa flew through the air like a broken kite before crashing heavily to the ground, his three katana swords clattering beside him.

The force of the punch had taken Roronoa by surprise. He hadnt expected someone to stop his attack with just one blow. The punch had shaken him to his core, destroying his confidence.

II have lost, he said, barely standing up with a trembling body and blurred eyes. A failed swordsman is not qualified to liveBut even if I were to be killed, I

He suddenly screamed, I WONt LET YOU TAKE MY CAPTAIN! LET HIM GO!
