Playful Nami, This Is a Little Secret Between Girls~
"I didn't expect Nami to have fans," Usopp remarked with some emotion.
He thought only big stars like Brook could have fans, but it turns out Nami also has a fan.
this...
"It's perfectly normal for someone like Nami to have fans," Sanji said, wriggling his body. "I'm a fan of hers too!"
Ah~
"Miss Nami!"
At that moment, Sanji seemed to transform into a fanatical fan, his movements leaving afterimages.
Upon seeing this, Perona immediately retorted, "Even if you're a fan, you're not a normal one."
What kind of fans would react like this?
Unfortunately, these words had no effect on Sanji; instead, they made him writhe even more violently.
"I really want fans too..." Chopper said, looking at Nami with envy.
Upon hearing this, Nami, who flew down with Merry, smiled at Chopper and said, "Chopper is so cute, he'll definitely have fans in the future."
"Really!" Chopper exclaimed, his eyes shining.
Can he also have his own fans?
"Um!"
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Chopper's face immediately lit up with a happy smile, as if he could already imagine that scene.
"Hehe, how should I face my fans?" Chopper chuckled.
Little Merry thought for a moment after hearing this, and then said, "How about... writing a letter?"
Just like Nami's fans writing letters to her, people who are liked can also reply to their fans!
Chopper thought for a moment after hearing this, then nodded and said, "Okay!"
Sending him a letter with his autograph is more than enough to show your appreciation!
"Hey, Nami."
Luffy closer to Nami and asked, "What did the letter say?"
At that moment, Luffy felt a strong curiosity about the letter in Nami's hand.
He was very curious to know what was written in that letter.
Looking at Luffy, who resembled a monkey, Nami smiled and said, "It's a secret~"
"Huh... how could this happen..."
Unfortunately, Nami still had no intention of showing it to him; instead, she carefully put the letter into her bosom.
In her words, this was a secret among girls, something she couldn't share with others.
Seeing Nami's determination, Luffy didn't press the matter further.
Then, Luffy turned his head away somewhat defiantly and said, "Hmph, I'll have fans sooner or later."
He looked like a child who was angry, which made Nami roll her eyes.
Just then, Franky emerged from the water and successfully returned to the Thousand Sunny.
"Phew~"
"Finally finished."
After wiping the seawater off his face, Franky looked at his companions and said, "The floats have started to deflate. How are your preparations going?"
The air extraction process is very fast, so we need to prepare quickly.
"So fast!"
Nami nodded upon hearing this, then looked at Merry and said, "Merry, the sails are yours now."
"Profound!!"
Upon hearing Nami's words, Merry immediately activated her powers and took control of the pirate ship.
Soon, under Merry's control, the pirate ship's sails were lowered in a flash, and the Pirate Flag was raised again.
And this means... the Straw Hat Pirates are officially setting sail!
After glancing up at the sails, Usopp muttered, "Looks like I'll have to hurry up too."
After saying that, he used his ability to enlarge the slingshot in his hand by two times, and then used the enlarged slingshot to launch an attack, destroying the gun turret of a distant warship.
"Boom!!"
"Boom!!"
"Boom!!"
Looking at the warship's gun emplacements that he had destroyed, Usopp nodded with satisfaction and said, "As expected of me~"
After smiling, Usopp returned to the bubble and waited with his friends for their departure.
Without enemy attacks, they no longer needed to worry about the coating being broken.
"Looks like everything's fine."
Nami, having taken in everything, nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Luffy and said, "Captain, we are ready to set sail."
"Give the order."
"Profound!"
Luffy grinned, then walked to the mast and looked at his crew with a big smile.
Seeing this, the others also gathered around, looking at Luffy with the same smiles.
This feeling... I haven't felt it in so long!
"Everyone..."
Having observed his crewmates' reactions, Luffy smiled and said, "Thank you for supporting my impulsive decisions these past two years!"
The others immediately laughed upon hearing this, clearly understanding what Luffy meant; he was referring to the order he had issued to halt the operation for two years.
"You rascal!"
Sanji laughed and said, "You think your capriciousness is just beginning?"
"You've always been like this," Usopp chuckled.
They're used to being willful and capricious!
Hearing what the two were saying, Luffy laughed even harder.
Luffy glanced at the pirate ship that was gradually sinking and took a deep breath.
Then he shouted, "So... everyone!"
"Setting sail!"
"Target: Fish-Man Island!!"
"Profound!!!"
Everyone cheered, their eyes simultaneously lighting up with anticipation for the unknown adventure!
"Boom!!"
The next moment, the Thousand Sunny sank into the sea and quickly rushed into the depths!
Soon, this pirate ship will arrive at the legendary Fish-Man Island!
"Huh?!"
The Marine Captain, who had observed the entire event, said with a grim expression, "Rear Admiral, the Straw Hat Pirates ' ship has sunk to the bottom of the sea!!"
"What?!"
The Rear Admiral's expression immediately changed upon hearing his subordinate's report.
Then, he picked up his binoculars and glanced at the sea.
After seeing the situation clearly, he was immediately rendered speechless.
"Rear Admiral, what do we do now?" the Marine Captain asked, his face grim.
They thought they could keep the Straw Hat Pirates here, but... they let them escape!
The Rear Admiral paused for a moment, then turned his head and said, "What else can we do but report this matter?"
"Yes..."
The subordinate nodded, then gave a helpless look.
Ultimately, it's because they're too weak...
If the Admiral were here, he could definitely bring the Straw Hat Pirates to justice!
Thinking of this, he sighed silently, then turned and left.
What he didn't notice was that the rear Rear Admiral's expression changed slightly the moment he left.
'It's a bit of a shame we couldn't capture the Straw Hat Pirates, but it's not such a bad thing that cute Chopper and... cute little apprentice escaped...'
'No, I'm Rear Admiral! How could I have such thoughts?!'
But... but they're so cute!!
How could it be repaired!!!
"Um?"
"What happened to the Rear Admiral General?"
Looking at that trembling figure, the navy personnel behind him were filled with doubt.
"The Rear Admiral General is probably just blaming himself too much."
Everyone fell silent for a moment upon hearing this, and then stood in awe.
As expected of their Rear Admiral General!
"Hey, Smoker, slow down!!"
Tashigi was completely stunned as she watched Smoker turn into white smoke and fly away.
How could they possibly keep up with such a speed?
Even if she used Shave to chase after him, she couldn't catch up with Smoker after he activated his Elementalization!
Unfortunately, Smoker didn't slow down after hearing that; instead, he flew even faster.
After all... if you're too slow, they'll get away!
"Hey, Smoker?!"
"I'll go first, you guys hurry up and follow!" Smoker said.
Tashigi:...
As the white smoke receded into the distance, Tashigi was rendered speechless.
Why is this guy like this again?
"Colonel Tashigi, what should we do?" a navy officer asked from the side.
Upon hearing this, Tashigi, regaining her composure, said, "Let's head to the beach at Tree 42 immediately and assist Smoker in taking down the Straw Hat Pirates!!"
Tree 45 is very close to Tree 42; we can get there quickly.
"Yes!"
The navy officer nodded, then turned and led his colleagues out.
Tashigi herself stared intently at the sea, muttering, "Roronoa, I will take that sword from your hand!"
Having trained under Bogart for nearly two years, she's definitely capable of defeating Roronoa Zoro!
With this in mind, her gaze became even more resolute.
Then she and the marines rushed off into the distance.
Meanwhile, Smoker was rushing towards the beach at Tree 42 at top speed, and soon arrived at the outskirts of Tree 42.
"Um?"
Smoker glanced at the giant beetles flying away into the distance and a few question marks appeared above his head.
"When did such large insects appear here?"
Although he didn't know what was going on, Smoker had no intention of investigating, since capturing the Straw Hat Pirates was the most important thing right now.
With that in mind, Smoker turned his gaze to the seaside and then quickly rushed forward.
He quickly arrived at his target area.
"Um?"
Smoker glanced at the calm beach and frowned, saying, "Wasn't the Straw Hat Pirates supposed to be here? Where are they?"
Could it be that he's too late?
Thinking of this, Smoker's expression turned somewhat grim.
The sailors who noticed Smoker immediately looked surprised and exclaimed, "It's Smoker!"
Why is this person here?
Shouldn't he be in the New World right now?
"Ah, it's me."
Smoker, a cigarette dangling from his lips, approached the group, frowning, and asked, "Where did the Straw Hat Crew go?"
"You're too late..."
The marine pointed to the sea and said, "The Straw Hat Pirates have already entered the ocean."
"Seabed..."
Smoker glanced at the sea and said, "Did the coating go to Fish-Man Island?"
"Yes," the marine said helplessly.
If Smoker had arrived a little earlier, he might have actually been able to keep the Straw Hat Pirates here.
It's just a pity... sigh.
Smoker fell silent upon hearing this, then stared blankly at the sea, lost in thought.
No one else dared to disturb them; they could only wait patiently.
Just then, a girl's voice reached Smoker's ears.
"Let me go!!"
"Damn it, you bunch of bastards, let me go!"
"Um?"
Smoker paused for a moment upon hearing the sound, then turned to the side and asked, "What's going on?"
The others looked at each other, but none of them answered.
"I'm asking you a question!" Smoker glared at them. "Are you all mute?!"
The sailors shuddered at the news, and then a Marine Rear Admiral stepped out from the crowd and said, "We've captured a girl who seems to have connections to the Straw Hat Crew."
"This person might be a pirate spy."
"A spy?" Smoker frowned. "Take me there."
"This..."
The Marine Rear Admiral hesitated, because he couldn't be sure whether the girl was a spy or not.
But for certain reasons, he had no choice but to do that.
But now that Smoker has intervened, he...
"Um?"
"Yes, I'll take you there right away," the Marine Rear Admiral said, wiping the sweat from his face.
Smoker narrowed his eyes upon seeing this; he sensed that something might be amiss.
