What Kind of Monsters Are These Guys?!

"That stuff tastes really good," Luffy said. "I ate a lot of it."

As he spoke, Luffy's mouth watered involuntarily, clearly thinking about that wonderful taste.

Tea Beard:???

eat?

So... these guys killed that terrifying monster?

Upon realizing this, a look of shock immediately appeared in Tea Beard's eyes.

That's a giant dragon!

No, what kind of monsters are these guys?!

"You even killed a dragon?" Franky asked curiously.

"Yes."

Usopp chuckled and said, "Zoro chopped down that dragon with teeth bigger than me in one stroke."

The scene was incredibly breathtaking.

Upon hearing this, Franky immediately gave Zoro a thumbs up and said, "As expected of Zoro!"

Upon hearing this, Zoro's lips unconsciously curled into a smile, clearly indicating that he was in a very good mood.

"Just a mere giant dragon."

"So, where is the dragon's flesh?" Sanji asked, looking up.

Clearly, the Straw Hat Pirates ' cook has taken an interest in this giant dragon.

If he could, he'd like to cook that guy.

"Of course we'll put it away," Usopp said.

"What about the cooked part?" Sanji asked again, "Was it all eaten?"

"No, not at all," Usopp shook his head and said, "The rest are in Merry's pocket."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned their attention to Merry.

Seeing this, Merry blinked and said, "Are you hungry?"

"Dragon meat is quite rare, so..."

Although Nami didn't finish her sentence, Merry understood what she meant.

Dragons are something you rarely encounter, so you should definitely try them when you have the chance.

Just then, the children's stomachs started growling.

"Gurgle..."

"My... I'm a little hungry..." Mocha said, blushing slightly.

Clearly, the little girl was a bit embarrassed.

Chopper blinked at this, then rubbed his stomach and said, "I'm a little hungry too."

"In that case, let's take out the dragon meat and eat it," Xi Yan said.

After saying that, Xi Yan released the power of Wood Style and built a huge flat table in the abandoned facility.

Then, Xi Yan looked at Merry and continued, "Put the dragon meat on here."

"Profound!"

Merry nodded, then took out an enormous piece of dragon meat from her pocket.

"Huh?!"

Mocha and the others were completely stunned when they saw the enormous piece of dragon meat.

"This... this big?"

"Am I seeing things? This dragon meat was actually taken out of a pocket?"

"Hey, how did you do that?"

"It's just my ability," Merry said with a smile. "Alright, everyone, come and eat!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately gathered around, then looked troubled.

How am I supposed to even begin eating this?

"Zoro," Nami said, "It's your turn to get to work."

"Ha?"

Zoro was deep in thought, frowned upon hearing this and said, "You wouldn't...?"

"Zoro ~"

Perona also spoke up, "Please."

Zoro:...

After glancing at Perona, who was also looking at him, Zoro paused for a moment, then scratched his head, stood up, and said, "Okay, okay."

Honestly, I never imagined he'd become a butcher one day.

As he pondered this, he drew the Katana from his waist.

The next moment...

"Clang!"

"Swish swish~"

Countless flashes of light appeared before everyone's eyes, and then Zoro the enormous dragon meat into countless small pieces.

After doing this, Zoro calmly put his weapon away.

Upon seeing this, the children immediately exclaimed, "Wow, Three-Knife Brother is amazing!"

Zoro:???

Upon hearing the children's words, Zoro was immediately filled with questions. What the heck were those three swords?

"It's the Three Sword Style!"

"Understood, Three Sword Style Brother!"

Zoro:...

So why must we refer to him by the number of weapons he possesses?

"That knife skill is really impressive." After picking up a piece of meat and examining it, Xi Yan stroked his chin and said, "Zoro, you didn't spend those two years training by cutting vegetables all the time, did you?"

Upon hearing this, Zoro's expression immediately fell.

Can we please not bring this up?

"Is that so?" Sanji raised an eyebrow, then smiled and said, "Green Algae Head, how about you become my Vegetable cutter from now on?"

"What did you say?!"

Zoro was immediately displeased. What did this bastard take him for?

"Color Cook, I have no interest in chopping vegetables for you."

"Yeah, you're terrible with directions, after all." Sanji deliberately looked away and pouted, "So you probably won't be good at chopping vegetables either."

Zoro:!!!

"Do you want to fight?!"

Come on!

So the two started fighting again.

However, Sanji, using Franky's body, was clearly at a disadvantage.

Why are these two older brothers fighting?

Mocha and the others stared at Sanji and Zoro in surprise, never expecting the two to suddenly make a move.

Aren't they partners?

Why did my partner attack?

"Ignore them." Nami glanced at the two fighting people with some disdain and said, "They do this all the time, you'll get used to it."

Mocha blinked. "Is that so?"

"Just consider this their way of getting along," Xi Yan said.

"All right..."

Seeing that the Sunglasses Brother had already said that, Mocha didn't say anything more.

"Speaking of which... Zoro doesn't actually chop vegetables for you all the time, does he?" Usopp said, glancing at Perona.

I guess so.

Perona recalled what had happened in those two years, and then a smile appeared on her lips. "Sometimes I would get some ingredients that were difficult to handle, and then I would ask him to cut the meat for me."

"So, you're the one who does all the cooking?"

"It wasn't like this at first, after all, I didn't know how to cook back then," Perona said. "After learning for six months, I started cooking."

"I see, Zoro really is..."

Hearing the conversation from his companions, Sanji suddenly stopped what he was doing.

Then, under Zoro's questioning gaze, he grabbed Zoro's collar and said, "Green Algae Head, you bastard, I'm so envious of you!"

"Ha?"

Zoro stared at Sanji with a puzzled look on his face. What was Sanji envious of?

Envious of him, a swordsman, chopping vegetables for others?

"Stop playing dumb with me, you bastard!" Sanji roared, opening his shark-like mouth. "You've been living with Miss Perona for two years, you know!"

"You bastard!"

Compared to that, what kind of life am I living...?

Damn it, that darn Green Algae Head!

Seeing Sanji's somewhat distorted expression, Zoro was completely silenced.

This guy's experience is truly pitiful...

"What kind of look is that?!" Sanji glared at him.

"Nothing."

Sanji:...

Why are you looking away, you jerk!

Then, as if he had discovered something, Sanji's expression immediately changed.

"Hey, where did that samurai go?"

He was just here a moment ago, how could he disappear in the blink of an eye?

"Ah, he's gone out," Brook said, who was eating meat.

"They went out?"

Sanji was dumbfounded. No wonder he was so quiet earlier; it turned out that guy had run away!

"After I told him I saw a person who was just a body, he asked me in detail where I saw it," Brook explained. "After he understood the situation, he left."

"Damn it, that idiot..."

"Is there a problem with him leaving?" Brook asked, puzzled.

The other party probably has nothing to do with the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Of course there's a problem."

Sanji sighed and said, "After all... I was the one who brought that guy out, the one whose only thing could move was his head."

"If he gets killed by someone now, then it will be my responsibility."

"So that's how it is."

Brook immediately had a look of Satori realization. No wonder Sanji cared so much about that guy; it turned out he was the one who brought him out.

That makes sense.

Then, Brook said seriously, "So you're going to take on this responsibility?"

"Ah..."

Sanji rubbed his temples, looking troubled, and then said, "After all, I'm the one who brought that guy out here."

Honestly, all I do is cause him trouble.

"In that case, I'll go with you," Brook said earnestly.

"Good."

Sanji nodded, then looked at Luffy and said, "Luffy, can we go outside for a bit?"

"Ah, go ahead."

Luffy waved without looking up, signaling them to go and come back soon.

Seeing this, Sanji smiled and said, "Then let's go, Brook."

"Profound!"

"Wait a moment."

Xi Yan looked up at Brook and asked, "Where are you going?"

They can go, but we need to let them know where we are so that we can provide timely support if any problems arise.

"Where..."

Brook tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said somewhat awkwardly, "I think... that guy's body must have fallen onto the ice."

If I remember correctly, that guy's body did indeed slide down the hillside all the way to the lake.

"Ice surface?"

Usopp paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Is there ice here?"

"I remember the lake wasn't frozen over... Am I mistaken?"

That's not right, he definitely remembers there was no ice there.

"You're absolutely right," Xi Yan said with a hint of helplessness, "The lake isn't frozen over."

Apart from a few Iceberg formed by reefs, there is basically no ice.

"Ah?"

Brook was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in disbelief, "Then the samurai's body must have fallen into the water?"

"He didn't drown, did he...?"

That would be awkward.

"How could someone with only an upper body possibly drown?" Usopp remarked. "After all, his head is still sticking out."

"That's true..."

The other person's head was outside the body, so they wouldn't have drowned due to the seawater.

"But falling into the water is still a problem."

After Xi Yan finished speaking, he thought for a moment and then said, "Hey, Luffy, I'm going with them."

"Okay, go ahead~"

"I'll go take a look too," Zoro said, standing up.

I wonder how strong this samurai is.

If possible, he would like to test his skills against the other party.

"Let's go then."

"Profound!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh~"

Caesar, putting down the Den Den Mushi, said with a smirk, "I've got permission to kill."

With the Joker's protection, he can go all out!

Thinking of this, Caesar laughed even more heartily.

Then, he turned to look at his subordinates and said:

"From now on, capture these guys with all your might; I'm going to use them for experiments!"

"If we encounter any disobedient individuals, poisoning them is also an option."

As for whether anyone will notice what's going on here...

Don't be ridiculous, with the Joker around, no one can possibly uncover the truth here!

Whoosh!

"Yes, Master!"

Caesar nodded, then continued, "By the way, where did Law go again?"

"He's left the room," the subordinate said.

"Did they go out again...?"

Caesar frowned upon hearing this. Why did this guy always seem to be running off?

"Forget it, let's ignore him." Caesar looked down at his men and said, "Anyway... the enemy's head is worth five hundred million, so don't force it. If you can't catch him, just poison him."

"Clear."

"The Straw Hat Pirates ' bounties aren't just 500 million," Monet said calmly, adjusting her glasses. "Except for him, everyone else has a bounty."

"Ranging from 150 million Beli to 50 Beli."

"Fifty?"

Upon hearing this, several question marks immediately appeared on Caesar's head.

Why would the Navy offer a bounty of 50 Beli?

That money can't even buy a newspaper... Is the navy out of their minds?

Is a reward really necessary?

"Yes, fifty," Monet nodded and said, "But that's not the point. The point is that their total bounty has exceeded 1 billion Beli."

"If the Blood-Eyed Ninja hadn't been dead, their bounties would be even more terrifying."

At this point, a complex expression appeared on Monet's face.

Who could have imagined that that horrible man would die in Mary Geoise?

"Blood-Eyed Ninja..."

Caesar's expression also became somewhat complicated. When he first learned about this person, he had also been very eager to study the other person's body.

Unfortunately... he didn't have that chance.

Thinking of this, Caesar sighed silently.

Then Caesar said, "Forget it, that person is already dead, so there's no need to bring it up."

After saying that, Caesar paused for a moment, then continued, "Anyway... let's capture the Straw Hat Crew first."

These guys are all excellent test subjects, so... he must capture them and study them carefully!

Then Caesar waved to his men, signaling them to get back to work.

"Clear."
