Chapter 371 He just arrived and already kidnapped someone else's daughter. Isn't that a bi
Chapter 371 He just arrived and already kidnapped someone else's daughter. Isn't that a bit inappropriate...?
"ah"
"I'm full!"
Luffy, having finished everything on the table, lay down on it with a look of pure enjoyment and said, "The food on Fishman Island is really delicious~"
Although it didn't have his favorite large chunks of meat, these things still tasted pretty good.
"Lord Luffy's appetite is truly astounding," Shirahoshi remarked.
It's just a tiny person who looks less than two meters tall, yet it managed to eat everything on the table... That's amazing!
"This guy's appetite is really outrageous," west Yan said.
Let alone Shirahoshi's lunch, he felt that Luffy could eat another serving if given one.
Luffy didn't refute this, he just grinned and took it as a compliment from the two people.
Then Luffy said, "You've been here for so many years, you must be getting sick."
"No, I've gotten used to it, so..."
Looking at this girl who was trying to appear strong, Luffy laughed and said, "Don't you have anywhere you want to go?"
"That's still a bit, but..."
"Let's go out for a walk!"
"Huh?"
Upon hearing Luffy's words, west Yan was stunned, and then said, "No... I mean, Luffy, this isn't a good idea."
How could someone kidnap someone else's daughter as soon as they arrive on their turf?
"What does it matter?" Luffy grinned, "We're not going to do anything to her anyway. In the end, it's just taking her out for a walk."
"Consider it a thank you for treating us to dinner."
Looking at Luffy's big smiling face, west Yan's expression became somewhat hesitant, clearly swayed by Luffy's words.
Thinking about it carefully... this girl who hasn't left the hard-shell tower in ten years is indeed a bit pitiful.
So... taking her out for a stroll isn't a bad idea.
Ultimately, however, we still need to respect the opinions of the parties involved.
Thinking of this, west Yan nodded, then turned to Bai Xing and asked, "What are your thoughts?"
If the other party is willing, then he has nothing more to say.
"Let's go for a walk..." A hint of anticipation appeared in Shirahoshi's eyes, but when she thought of the dangers outside, she became hesitant.
"Yeah, let's take a walk!" Luffy nodded and said.
"But.."
"shark!"
Mekaro rushed over and shook his head at Luffy, meaning that it was too dangerous outside and Princess Shirahoshi should not be taken out.
"It's fine."
As if understanding Mekaro's words, Luffy said, "With me and Xiyan here, even if something flies by, it won't hurt her."
"Um?"
west Yan glanced at Luffy with some surprise. Could it be that this guy understood what Mecaro said?
How did he do that?
"shark.
"Don't worry, leave it to us."
Luffy nodded to Mekkaro, then turned to Shirahoshi and asked, "What's your decision?"
"I'm not mentally prepared yet..."
"It's just a walk, why make it so complicated?" Luffy said, looking at Shirahoshi with a headache.
Do I need to prepare myself mentally for this kind of thing?
"They've probably been staying here too long, so they're too afraid to go out," west Yan guessed.
Perhaps... Princess Shirahoshi has become the ultimate socially awkward person?
It is not impossible.
"With us here, what's there to be afraid of?" Luffy frowned and said, "What a coward!"
Shirahoshi: !!!
Upon hearing Luffy's words, Shirahoshi burst into tears.
"Luffy-sama is so fierce!!!"
Luffy: ? ? ?
Luffy looked at Shirahoshi with a puzzled expression. When did he become fierce?
He always speaks to his friends in this manner.
"shark!
Mekaro rushed to Luffy's side and excitedly fiddled with his fins, as if to say: Don't scare Princess Shirahoshi!
Having observed everyone's reactions, west Yan said helplessly, "That's what happens when you stay home for too long."
If you don't have contact with the outside world for many years, you are indeed more likely to become an extreme socially anxious person.
After shaking his head, west Yan raised his head and said, "Bai Xing, Luffy is actually right. You're bound to get bored staying here for so long."
"Now's a rare opportunity, let's go out and have a look around."
"Anyway, with us here, you won't be in danger."
After he goes down there, he can send out his shadow clones to investigate the mermaid kidnapping case.
As for Uncle Neptune?
With Usopp and the others around... those people have probably already been captured, so west Yan isn't in a hurry to go there to find them.
Upon hearing west Yan's words, Bai Xing stopped sobbing, then parted her fingers to reveal her large eyes and asked, "Does Lord Xi Yan also wish me to go for a walk?"
"It's not about what I want, but whether you want it or not," west Yan said. "If there's anywhere you want to go, the two of us will take you there."
"Anyway, with us here, no one can threaten you."
After saying that, west Yan paused for a moment, then continued, "This is a rare opportunity, think it over carefully."
Bai Xing fell silent upon hearing this. Thinking about it carefully... it seemed that apart from these two adults, there was no one else who could take her out for a walk safely.
After all, Vander Deacon's abilities are terrifying, and even her father cannot protect her every moment.
Thinking of this, Bai Xing's eyes began to struggle.
"Don't you have anywhere you want to go?" Luffy asked curiously.
"The place I want to go..."
Upon hearing Luffy's words, a name immediately popped into Shirahoshi's mind.
Then, her eyes gradually welled up with tears, and she said, "The sea...the forest of the sea!"
"I've always dreamed of going there..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Xing's tears began to flow uncontrollably.
"He only mentioned a place he wanted to go, why is he crying again?" Luffy said with a headache, "What a troublesome guy."
"I'm sorry... please don't yell at me..."
Seeing Shirahoshi start wailing again, Luffy scratched his head, unsure of what to do.
west Yan looked at Bai Xing with some helplessness; this guy was even more timid than he had imagined.
Just then, a terrifying roar came from outside the hard-shell tower, as if something had crashed outside the tower.
This time, however, the roaring sound was not just a single occurrence!
"Here we go again?" Luffy turned to look at the gate, frowning. "What a nasty fellow."
"This attack is much more numerous than the last one," west Yan said, frowning. "They really intend to kill Bai Xing."
If you can't have it, destroy it?
Ah, that Vander Deiken is truly a scumbag.
"Shark looked at Shirahoshi, who had scurried into the bed in fright, and Mecaro's eyes were filled with worry."
west Yan glanced at the trembling Shirahoshi, sighed, then turned to Luffy and said, "This girl has really had a hard time."
If Vander Deikun were to give Shirahoshi a kiss like that every now and then... she probably wouldn't be able to get a good night's sleep.
Over time, this could lead to neurasthenia, so it's understandable that one's personality might become timid as a result.
Luffy looked at Shirahoshi and said, "You're such a coward."
"Or we might as well just call you a coward."
"coward?!"
Shirahoshi, who had just crawled out of bed, looked at Luffy with a question mark on her face. What does "coward" mean?
"With such a cowardly attitude, what else could you be but a coward?"
Shirahoshi stared at Luffy for a while, and her eyes welled up with tears again, looking as if she was about to cry.
Seeing this, Xi Yan immediately said, "Bai Xing, don't you want to go to the Sea Forest?"
Bai Xing, whose tears were immediately held back by Xi Yan's change of topic, lowered her head and said, "Can I really go?"
"Why not?" west Yan laughed. "You have the right to choose, don't you?"
"But my father told me it's dangerous outside the tower, so I'm very afraid to go outside, so... so..."
Seeing Bai Xing's voice fading, west Yan shook his head and then said, "Bai Xing, just tell me if you want to go to the Sea Forest you've been longing for!"
"If you want, the two of us can take you there, and we'll guarantee your safety throughout the process!"
Looking into west Yan's extremely serious eyes, Bai Xing paused for a moment, then clenched her fist and said, "You..."
Can you two really guarantee my safety?
"You really, really can take me there..."
"Of course!"
west Yan laughed and said, "Rest assured, leave it to us!"
After receiving a positive reply from the hero of Fishman Island, Shirahoshi's eyes welled up with tears again.
"Then...please take me there!"
After saying that, Bai Xing burst into tears again.
"You really are a crybaby," Luffy said. "If you keep crying, I'm not taking you."
"I'm sorry... I was just too happy."
Seeing Shirahoshi wiping away tears, both Xiyan and Luffy showed a look of helplessness.
The other party is indeed a bit too timid.
"But going out like this would make us too conspicuous," west Yan said, stroking his chin. "We need to think of a way."
After all, this girl is the princess of this country. If she were taken out directly, some unforeseen things might happen, so...
"Should I use Wood Release to hide her?" west Yan thought to himself.
Before west Yan could speak, Luffy said, "I have a great idea!"
Looking at Luffy grinning with his teeth showing, a question mark popped up above west Yan's head.
What's a good idea?
But when he noticed Luffy's gaze, he was immediately silenced.
Then, west Yan pointed at Mecaro and said, "You're not planning to hide Bai Xing in Mecaro's mouth, are you?" "That's right!"
Luffy, hands on his hips, said, "That's exactly what I think!"
Upon hearing this, west Yan was immediately silenced, while Mecaro revealed an extremely terrified look in his eyes.
Put Her Highness in your mouth?
This is no joke!
"Are you serious?" west Yan tilted his head and looked at Luffy.
"Of course."
Luffy said, "Don't you think this is a good idea?"
This time, west Yan did not answer immediately. Instead, he carefully examined Bai Xing's physique and then turned to examine Mecaro's physique.
After calculating in his mind, he nodded and said, "Hmm, this method should be feasible, but it will be tough on Mecaro."
Mecaro:
My lords, there's no need for that!
"Let's do it that way then," Shirahoshi said.
If the words were hidden inside Mecaro's mouth, she would feel safer.
Mecaro: ? ? ?
Seeing Princess Shirahoshi looking at him expectantly, Mecaro was completely dumbfounded.
What's going on here?
For a moment, Mecaro felt like crying.
"Do you need my help?"
As he spoke, west Yan also released the skeletal arm of Susanoo.
"No need, I can do it myself," Bai Xing said, shaking her head.
Although she had never tried this method before, she felt confident she could do it!
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."
Xiyan nodded, then canceled Susanoo.
After finishing this task, he turned to look at Luffy and continued, "Let's get ready too."
"What are you preparing?"
Seeing Luffy staring at him with a bewildered expression, west Yan was instantly furious.
"You idiot, you're not planning to just go down there with Shirahoshi, are you?" west Yan said irritably. "Have you forgotten that you're a Devil Fruit user?"
"That's right—"
Luffy suddenly realized that he was a Devil Fruit user and therefore couldn't enter the sea!
Thinking of this, Luffy looked at Xiyan and said, "Hey, Xiyan, give me that one more time."
"that?"
Shirahoshi, who was diligently trying to get the food into Mecaro's mouth, paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "What...that?"
"You'll find out soon enough," Luffy said without turning his head.
"The Dance of Swimming Fish..."
west Yan thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Then let's use this one."
Although Fishman Island has bubbles that allow people to move around in the deep sea, they are not as good as the Fish Dance that can be used close to the body.
So let's stick with the latter.
As for whether this technique will be detected... just say that this bubble is the latest technology from Ryugu Palace, and that explanation won't cause any problems.
Thinking of this, west Yan immediately took out the mangrove resin unique to the Sabaody Archipelago and used it to release ninjutsu on Luffy.
"Water Release - Special Edition: Dance of the Fish!"
"Buzz"
The next moment, a thin film of bubbles appeared on Luffy's body, firmly protecting him inside!
Xi Yan himself used Water Release: Dance of Swimming Fish to protect himself.
After finishing this task, west Yan said, "That's enough."
"So this is Lord Xiyan's ninjutsu!"
Shirahoshi, nestled inside Mecaro's mouth, stared in amazement at the thin bubble film covering the two of them, exclaiming, "It looks almost like the special bubble coating on our Fishman Island! Amazing!"
"Um?"
Hearing Bai Xing's words, Xi Yan looked surprised and said, "You fishman island also have these kinds of close-fitting bubbles?"
Bai Xing nodded and said, "However... I heard that those bubbles require special techniques to achieve a similar effect."
"I see."
west Yan stroked his chin and said, "That saves trouble."
Fishman Island itself has these bubbles, which is much more convenient, so there's no need to explain to others what they are.
"Can we set off now?" Luffy said.
Upon hearing this, west Yan did not answer immediately, but instead glanced at Bai Xing and said, "Are you alright in this condition?"
"No problem," Bai Xing nodded and said.
Although Mecaro's mouth is a bit cramped, ... it's still not a problem to hide it!
"Actually, I have a problem..." Mecaro thought to himself, crying.
This situation is really uncomfortable, but it's Princess Shirahoshi's order, and as her pet, I can't disobey...
Thinking of this, Mecaro shed tears of anguish.
"That's good."
west Yan nodded, then glanced at Mecaro with amusement and said, "I know you're not feeling well right now, but for Bai Xing's sake, just bear with it."
What else can Mecaro say?
I could only nod in agreement.
"Let's go then!"
"Let's go to the Sea Forest!" Luffy said with a loud laugh.
"profound!"
The next moment, Mecaro's massive body moved, slamming violently against the door and forcefully breaking open the gate of the Hard Shell Tower.
Then, they quickly rushed out of the Dragon Palace!
"Huh?!!"
"Mecaro?"
The Right Minister, who had been brought here by Brooke, was dumbfounded when he saw Mecaro rushing out of the gate.
Why did Mecaro run away?
Brooke exclaimed in surprise, "So you guys were here!"
Their worries were completely unnecessary...
"Hey, it's Brook."
Noticing Brooke and Xi Yan, the Right Minister in his hand, he thought for a moment and understood the current situation.
The Right Minister was bound, which means... Brooke and his men have already captured these people!
"It seems things are developing much as I expected," west Yan muttered to himself.
In this way, he won't need to worry about this side.
Thinking of this, west Yan nodded, and then called out to Brooke, "We'll be right back!"
"Charge, shark, to the sea forest!" Luffy grinned, showing his teeth.
"shark!"
"boom!!"
"They've left..."
Brooke's jaw dropped in astonishment as he watched the figure disappear into the distance.
Where are these two going?
The Right Minister angrily exclaimed, "Hey, Mecaro, where are you going at such a crucial time?!"
Doesn't this bastard know how scared Her Highness is right now?!
He just ran away like that... What a bastard!
"I wonder if this guy has gotten a bit fatter than when I first saw him," Brook thought to himself.
Although this shark wasn't thin to begin with, it's now grown to the size of a pufferfish...
"Hey, Skeleton, go check on the situation inside the Hard-Shelled Tower!" The Right Minister glanced at the Hard-Shelled Tower and said, "Honestly, that bastard Mecaro just left the gate wide open and ran out like that. Doesn't he know what that means?"
If that bastard Vander Decken attacks Princess Shirahoshi at this moment... then Princess Shirahoshi is doomed!
"Yo-ho-ho-ho-ho! Your Highness, huh?" Brooke said with a chuckle, "I'll go right now."
That long-awaited question... is finally going to be asked!
Yohohohohoho. Brook then led the Right Minister into the Hard Shell Tower.
But once inside, the two were dumbfounded.
"Why...why is nobody here?"
"Your Highness!"
"Where has Her Highness gone?!"
The Minister of the Right burst into tears, his face contorted with anguish, and said, "Damn it, when exactly was Princess Shirahoshi taken away...?"
Was it done by the two Straw Hat Pirates who left?
Your Highness!
"It's really strange that the princess could disappear so mysteriously," Brooke murmured.
Could it be... that Xiyan and Luffy did it?
Thinking about this, Brooke fell into deep thought.
Just then, a man lying on the ground got up, raised his weapon, and slashed at Brooke.
"Clang!"
After slashing his opponent down with a backhand strike, Brooke said angrily, "Who are you? Why did you ambush me?"
Things are not going well...
Looking at the humans gradually getting up around him, the Right Minister said with a grim expression, "Not only has Her Highness the Princess been kidnapped, but so many humans have also arrived at the Dragon Palace..."
"Quickly, Skeleton, take me back to His Majesty the King. We must tell him what happened here as soon as possible!"
"But you're already tied up, what good will telling him do?"
Upon hearing this, the Right Minister was immediately silenced.
Yes, what difference would it make even if we told His Majesty the King?
"hateful.·
Your Highnesses, please save the Dragon Palace!
"You guys are going to arrest us just for something like this..." Chopper said, annoyed, after kicking a fishman soldier to the ground. "Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"
"For the safety of Fishman Island, we have no other choice!"
"Then let's give it a try!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chopper's body rapidly changed, and he dashed past the fish-man soldiers at an astonishing speed.
They quickly knocked many murloc soldiers to the ground!
"Damn it, how is this guy so strong?" a merman soldier said with a headache. "Isn't he just a pet with a bounty of only 50 Berries?!"
Chopper: —
Upon hearing the other person's words, Chopper was immediately struck down, turning ashen, and his body collapsed uncontrollably to the ground.
"5...50..."
Murloc Soldiers:
Why has he suddenly become so depressed?
"It's all because of you, you idiot!"
"Apologize now."
"sorry.."
The merman who had just spoken apologized honestly, then looked up with some confusion.
Why did he have to apologize?
"Damn it, my bounty will go up sooner or later!" Chopper wiped away his tears and said angrily, "You guys better remember this!"
"So it's because of the bounty after all..."
Looking at the angry raccoon, everyone's faces showed pity.
Despite his immense strength, he only received a bounty of 50, which isn't even worth as much as a newspaper... This guy is so pitiful.
"Damn it, don't look at me like that!"
Just then, Sanji pushed open the door and came out, his body trembling slightly, and approached Chopper.
After glancing around, Sanji roughly understood what was going on.
"Hey, Sanji, you can't move around like that right now," Chopper said anxiously.
"It's alright, I won't die," Sanji said, waving his hand.
After saying that, the man calmly lit a cigarette, and his expression gradually became somewhat relaxed.
He then glanced at the merman soldiers surrounding them and said, "I ask you, is there a place here called Dragon Palace?"
"Is there a mermaid princess in the Dragon Palace?!"
The merman soldiers exchanged glances, then said, "Of course we have, but why are you asking?"
"I'm going to see," Sanji said without hesitation. "I'll go even if it kills me!"
"Hello!"
Chopper stared blankly at Sanji and said, "How come you have such a bad memory?!"
"If the Little Mermaid were a beautiful woman, you might be dead!"
"If she's a beautiful woman, then I'd definitely like to see her."
Then, Sanji glanced at the fish-man soldiers and said, "Isn't she a beauty?"
"Although I've never seen what the mermaid princess looks like, I've heard that she's the most beautiful woman on Fishman Island."
Sanji: !!!
"What?!"
"She's actually the most beautiful woman on Fishman Island?!"
Sanji excitedly said, "Then I want to go to the Ryugu Palace! Please take me there now!"
The merman soldiers exchanged glances, then produced a pair of handcuffs and said, "Taking you there is no problem, but we'll need to handcuff you."
"No problem, anything is fine as long as we can get to the Dragon Palace!"
Chopper: ? ? ?
Chopper stared at Sanji with a completely bewildered expression. Did this guy even understand the situation?!
Thinking of this, Chopper immediately ran towards Sanji, saying, "Hey, Sanji, don't do anything reckless!"
"We are now...."
Before Chopper could finish speaking, Sanji decisively took action.
"Bang bang bang"
With a powerful leap, Sanji sent all the surrounding fish-man soldiers flying. He yelled, "You idiots! How are you supposed to cook for the mermaid princess if your hands are cuffed?!"
Chopper:
Is that really the reason?
"Is this human crazy?" the merman soldier said as he got up.
They said they would surrender, but then they attacked them... What's going on?
"Looks like this guy is determined to fight to the end."
"Brothers, charge! Take them down!"
"profound!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the merfolk charged towards Sanji and Chopper.
Seeing this, Sanji didn't hesitate to take action.
"Don't even think about getting in my way!"
"Bang bang bang"
In the blink of an eye, all the fish-man soldiers surrounding Sanji were overthrown by him!
"Sanji..."
Before he could stop them, Chopper said with a headache, "We didn't do anything wrong, so how did you manage to kill us all?"
"They told us they were going to handcuff us."
Chopper:
How come there's absolutely no remorse?
"Look, they're the Straw Hat crew!" A fish-man standing nearby said, looking at Sanji and the other two. "They're the dangerous elements the King's Army mentioned."
"Everyone, stay away from them, be careful not to get involved..."
"Look!"
Chopper looked at the fish-men around him and said, "Everyone around us is giving us the side-eye, like deep-sea fish are giving us the side-eye!"
Sanji: ? ? ?
What a strange description.
Sanji shook his head, looking speechless, and then said, "What's done is done, there's no use regretting it now."
Chopper was dumbfounded when he heard Sanji's words.
"You should think about it carefully before you do it!"
"But you solved half of it with Jiu-Jitsu!"
Sanji paused for a moment after speaking, then praised, "You're pretty good."
"You...you...you!!!"
"Even if you praise me like that, I won't be happy, you bastard."
Seeing Chopper happily wriggling around, Sanji remarked, "You seem pretty happy, don't you?"
Just then, a cry of surprise came from afar.
"Hey, there's a person covered in blood floating down the coast!"
"Hey, isn't this someone from Fishman Street? What's going on?"
"Go get the doctor right away!"
"Hey, doctor?"
Chopper paused for a moment upon hearing this keyword, then rushed over, saying, "I'm the doctor!"
Watching Chopper disappear into the distance, Sanji smiled and said, "You're still the same as ever." Then, Sanji took long strides and followed after him, intending to see what was going on.
Just then, Chopper shouted from afar.
"Hey, Sanji, come take a look!"
"What's wrong?"
Sensing something was wrong, Sanji immediately rushed towards Chopper.
Once he got to the other person's side, he realized something was wrong.
"Who are you...
Looking at the man lying on the ground, Sanji's eyes widened as he exclaimed, "Hachi?"
"Hey, how did you get hurt like this?"
How come there are so many arrows stuck in his back?
"Hey, Hachi, it's us!" Chopper said anxiously. "What happened?"
"It's you guys..."
Upon seeing that it was Chopper and Sanji, Hachi struggled to get up, but Chopper stopped him.
"You can't move around in your current condition. I'll treat you now," Chopper said.
After saying that, Chopper took out the medical supplies he carried with him and began to treat Hachi's wounds.
"My...my injury isn't important..." Xiao Ba said with difficulty, "Now I have something more important to tell you!"
"Go ahead, I'm listening," Sanji nodded and said.
As he spoke, Sanji glanced at Chopper, signaling him to continue treating Hachi's wounds.
Chopper nodded, then began to work diligently.
Seeing that Chopper showed no sign of stopping, Hachi didn't press the matter further.
Then, he looked at Sanji and asked, "Is Straw Hat Luffy here?"
"Luffy isn't here."
"Then hurry and find him!" Hachi struggled to reach out and grab Sanji's clothes, saying, "You absolutely mustn't get involved with this island! Gather your crew and leave immediately!"
"Why?"
"Because Hody is about to attack this island!" Hachi roared. "The Ryugu Kingdom is about to be destroyed!!"
"For your safety, leave immediately..."
Before Xiao Ba could finish speaking, his consciousness became blurred, and then his eyes rolled back and he lost consciousness.
He lost consciousness...
Seeing Hachi's miserable state, Chopper's expression turned grim. He then looked up at Sanji and said, "Sanji,"
What do we do now?
"Do what you're supposed to do."
Sanji stood up, glanced up at the Ryugu Castle high above, and said, "Afterwards...we'll find a way to find Luffy and the others!"
"But Xiao Ba just said..."
"Do you think we have anything to fear with our strength?" Sanji retorted.
Xiao Ba didn't know that west Yan was still alive, but didn't they know?
Chopper paused for a moment upon hearing Sanji's words, then nodded as if he realized something and said, "Okay, I understand. I will heal Hachi as soon as possible."
As for that so-called new Fishman Pirates?
If these guys are really so foolish as to attack the Straw Hat Pirates... then let them see what true power is!
