"Damn pig, why did you have to get so fat! Can't you run a little faster!"

While running away, Miss Merry Christmas continued to hurl insults at Mr. 4!

"Huff, huff," Mr. 4's panting echoed in the night air. His body was as large as if it had been inflated with air, and his entire body of fat trembled as he ran. His legs felt as heavy as lead, and despite his best efforts, he still couldn't keep up with Miss Merry Christmas's pace.

Despite her small stature, Miss Merry Christmas. As she ran, she glanced back at Mr. 4, her face filled with anxiety and anger. Her eyes gleamed with determination, as if to say, "You big fatso, if you don't hurry up, we're going to get caught!"

Mr. 4, panting heavily, tried to respond to Miss Merry Christmas, but his throat felt constricted, and he could only manage indistinct sounds. He knew perfectly well that his size was hindering the entire escape plan. But there was nothing he could do; he could only grit his teeth and keep running.

The night wind howled, and moonlight cast dappled shadows upon them. Miss Merry Christmas felt the person behind her getting closer and closer, as if they had already caught the scent of their prey, and quickened their pace in pursuit.

Miss Merry Christmas was anxious, constantly urging Mr. 4: "Hurry up, hurry up! Do you want him to catch you?" Her words pierced Mr. 4's heart like needles, igniting his last bit of potential.

Mr. 4 gritted his teeth and pushed himself to the limit. His heart pounded like thunder, and every ounce of fat on his body seemed to be burning. He kept overtaking himself, just so he wouldn't be overtaken by those behind him!

"Looks like you guys are really working hard!" Haku's voice rang out from all directions.

Miss Merry Christmas and Mr. 4 stopped and looked around back to back, trying to see where the enemy was hiding.

"Damn the navy, come on! Show yourself! If you've got the guts, come out and arrest me fair and square!"

Miss Merry Christmas loudly provoked, trying to lure out the enemy lurking in the shadows. However, only her own echo answered her!

"Upright and honorable? You bunch of cowardly cowards really dare to say that!" Haku said disdainfully.

A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, instantly rendering the fleeing duo incapable of moving!

Haku appeared before them instantly and said, "This cat -Nezumi game is over. You're under arrest!"

After he finished speaking, several sailors stepped out from behind him and handcuffed the two men with Seastone handcuffs.

Haku then moved on to her next target!

On the other side of the city, Mr. 3 anxiously looked at the Communication Den Den Mushi in his hand!

He already knew that four high-ranking commanders of the Baroque Works had gone missing!

Miss Goldenweek was laying a picnic blanket on the flat surface of the rooftop where she was located.

She took out tea and rice crackers from her basket, then knelt down to enjoy the food in her hands!

Mr. 3 frowned, his tone tinged with displeasure and anxiety, as he looked at Miss Goldenweek's leisurely demeanor. "Golden Week, you still have the mood to drink tea and eat senbei? We've lost contact with our comrades; they've probably been captured by the Navy!"

Miss Goldenweek put down her teacup, her face still calm and composed. She said leisurely, "Mr. 3, you're too stressed. Sometimes, a little tea and food can help you relax!"

Mr. 3 took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. "I know! But we can't just sit here and do nothing. We have to find a way to rescue them!"

"No, we can't go and save them! That Marine Admiral might be watching us, waiting for us to take the bait!" Mr. 3 said nervously.

"Is it possible that the Marine Admiral wasn't watching them?" a voice rang out between the two.

At the same time, the person who spoke was also holding a teacup and leisurely drinking from it!

"How could that be? You think everyone drinks tea as leisurely as you do!" Mr. 3 snatched the teacup from Haku's hand and took a sip!

Puff!!!

Upon realizing what was happening, Mr. 3 spat out all the tea in his mouth. If Haku hadn't sensed this and created an Energy Barrier between herself and Mr. 3, she wouldn't have survived!

His face is probably covered in tea by now!

Haku didn't care about the other person's reaction; he reached out and took a scallion from the picnic blanket and started eating!

Mr. 3 stared in astonishment at Haku's sudden appearance, his eyes wide as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

"You... how did you get here?" Mr. 3 stammered, his voice filled with fear and unease.

Haku smiled faintly, took a bite of her rice cracker, and then slowly replied, "I've always been here; you just haven't noticed."

A flurry of thoughts flashed through Mr. 3's mind as he tried to analyze the situation. Haku's appearance was clearly no coincidence; she must have some purpose.

"What do you want?" Mr. 3 stared at Haku warily, his hand gripping the teacup tightly, as if ready to respond to Haku's attack at any moment.

Haku shrugged, put down the rice cracker in his hand, and took out two Seastone Handcuffs from his pocket, saying, "Now you only have two choices: First, put on the handcuffs and come with me. Second, run away like that old woman who looks like Nezumi, and then I'll catch you!"

"Of course, if you choose second place, you'll inevitably get hurt by me!"

Mr. 3 looked grim, and he kept gesturing to Miss Goldenweek beside him, trying to get her to control Haku!

Miss Goldenweek was engrossed in devouring the senbei in her hand, her head bowed, as if it were some kind of divine delicacy!

Actually, it wasn't that she didn't want to do as Mr. 3 suggested.

While Mr. 3 was reacting, Haku was already sitting next to them, while Miss Goldenweek had already taken out her Palette and Calligraphy Brush and was trying to control Haku!

Unfortunately, Haku's mental strength was too strong; no matter what suggestions or hypnosis she tried, it was useless.

She finally gave up resisting and picked up the senbei again to eat!

Seeing Miss Goldenweek's actions, Mr. 3's heart sank! He knew that he really only had one choice left!

Haku looked at their reactions and a smug smile appeared on her face!
