Perona Was Speechless-What an Idiot!!!

As if sensing the doubt in Vika's eyes, Zoro said, "I'm not Man-Eating Giant, I won't eat you, don't be so afraid."

"Alright, explain it to me now, what exactly happened?"

Why did you steal my knife?

If this guy's explanation is reasonable, he wouldn't mind letting him off the hook.

As he pondered this, Zoro glanced back at the spot he had just come from, thinking, 'Why hasn't Perona arrived yet? Could she be lost?'

Tsk, what an idiot.

"This..." Vika lowered her head and said, "I can't say."

"I cannot reveal this information to the Giant Race."

"Ha?"

Zoro looked at Vika with a puzzled expression. What kind of strange reason was that?

But Vika ignored Zoro's thoughts and bowed to Zoro.

"Excuse me, I have something to attend to, so please excuse me."

After saying that, Vika quickly ran to the side, but after only a few steps she fell to the ground and screamed in pain.

Zoro:???

"What happened now?!"

"I twisted... I twisted my ankle."

Vika looked at Zoro with teary eyes and said, "I can't leave..."

"Wow!"

"Why am I so clumsy!"

Vika, wailing loudly, lay on the ground, pounding her fists into the earth, creating a large crater that left Zoro completely dumbfounded.

"To think he could shatter the ground like that..." Zoro exclaimed in disbelief, "What kind of monstrous strength is that?"

No wonder the other party was able to throw him down from that height; that strength is truly terrifying.

As if noticing Zoro's gaze, Vika's eyes lit up slightly, clearly indicating that she had thought of something.

Then, she knelt down very respectfully and said, "I beg you, Giant Race."

"Please take me to the captain."

As if afraid Zoro wouldn't agree, Vika added another sentence.

"To be honest, this was originally your fault..."

"Ha?"

Zoro immediately objected, saying, "You stole my sword first, didn't you!"

If it weren't for this little guy stealing his knife, he wouldn't have chased after him at all.

"Steal?"

Vika looked at Zoro with a puzzled expression and said, "What are you talking about?"

"We Tontatta Tribe, are the green guardians of this land, beings known as Fairies by the people of this country."

"That's why those Giant Race give us all sorts of things, so it's not stealing!"

Zoro:???

What kind of bizarre and twisted logic is this?

"You mean that was a gift?" Zoro shook his head and said, "No, that was clearly theft!"

"At least I didn't agree to give you the knife!"

Although someone did mention at the restaurant that they would give those Fairies items.

But you only say things like that when you're out of options.

If they manage to recover anything that was stolen, they will never say it was a gift!

"I..."

Vika opened her mouth, unsure how to refute Zoro, since Zoro hadn't actually promised her anything.

No... now is not the time to think about these things!

"Let's put aside whether it's stealing or not, I'm really in a hurry right now." Vika put her hands together and said, "Could you please take me there?"

"Why should I care about you?" Zoro said, speechless.

He didn't directly attack them, which was already a sign of his pity for the other party.

"I belong to the Tontatta Tribe's Reconnaissance Unit, and I'm a soldier specializing in intelligence gathering," Vika said anxiously. "So I need to inform the captain of the Donquixote Family's movements as soon as possible."

"Um?"

Zoro frowned subconsciously. What was the Donquixote Family doing?

If this little guy really does have connections to the Donquixote Family, then it might not be such a bad thing for me.

"I'm telling the truth!" Vika said. "Now is the perfect time!"

What are you going to report?

"Just recently, I confirmed that the Donquixote Family is about to attack the Straw Hat Crew ' ship. At times like this, their officers will be fewer in number, making it the perfect time to strike!"

After saying that, Vika froze, then burst into tears and pounded the ground, saying, "Why did I say it all again? I'm such an idiot!"

Zoro ignored the guy's emotions and asked anxiously, "Hey, were you telling the truth just now?"

"I'm Straw Hat Crew."

Vika didn't answer, she just kept pounding the ground.

Finally, it even slammed an entire building down.

Zoro:...

So, just what kind of terrifying beings are the Tontatta Tribe?

That strength is terrifying!

After glancing around, Zoro said, "Stop causing trouble, or you'll attract other people."

Upon hearing Zoro's words, Vika paused slightly in her hammering motion, clearly afraid of being discovered by others.

But the thought of not being able to deliver the information to the captain made her cry again.

Seeing this, Zoro had no choice but to grab him and said, "Hey, were you telling the truth just now?"

"Is the Donquixote Family really planning to attack our Thousand Sunny?"

"It's a secret."

Vika said seriously, "But this is what I saw with my own eyes; it can't be faked."

"Huh?"

After saying that, she froze, then said with tears in her eyes, "How could I have let it slip again..."

Zoro was speechless. It was only because he wasn't a member of the Donquixote Family that this little guy was definitely doomed.

After shaking his head, Zoro put Vika down on the ground, then frowned and looked around, saying, "I don't have Den Den Mushi, and I can't send them messages... What should I do?"

Although the three of them were quite strong, they were somewhat outmatched when facing a Haki expert.

So... it's best to go back and check it out yourself.

Thinking of this, Zoro stood up and said, "Let's go back to the Thousand Sunny first."

As for Perona?

Let's see if we run into this guy on the way back. If we don't... with her strength, she should have no problem safely returning to the Thousand Sunny or finding Xi Yan and the others.

As he thought about it, Zoro ran toward the street on the side.

"Hey, wait a minute!" Vika called out, "Take me to the Flower Field first, then I'll take you to the coast!"

"Who cares about you!"

Zoro said, "I'm going to the coast now to check on my crew's safety!"

What's more important than the lives of my comrades than a stranger's mission?

"But... but you're running in the opposite direction!" Vika shouted.

Zoro:...

Upon hearing these words, Zoro stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.

Vika paused for a moment upon seeing this, then said, "No wonder you got separated from the woman who was chasing me earlier."

"You... you have no sense of direction, do you?"

Zoro opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute that statement.

Could it really be because of him that Perona got separated?

"So take me to the Flower Field first," Vika said earnestly. "Afterwards, I'll take you to the coast."

Zoro thought about it seriously for a moment in silence, then resignedly returned to Vika's side, grabbed her and put her in his collar.

"Okay, then I'll take you to the Flower Field first."

After saying that, Zoro quickly rushed off in another direction and soon left the area.

After glancing around and finding no trace of Perona, Zoro turned his attention back to Vika.

"You just said you heard about the Donquixote Family's movements, right?" Zoro said. "So, Doflamingo's associates have been watching our movements?"

"Yes, we've been monitoring them."

"Strange, how did they figure that out?" Zoro asked, puzzled.

After landing, they all disguised themselves. Would they still be recognized by the enemy under such circumstances?

Is there a problem somewhere?

Although he didn't know exactly what happened, Zoro had now figured out one thing: Doflamingo might have had them all planned out from the very beginning!

"As expected of Shichibukai, he's so meticulous," Zoro said, frowning.

Therefore, it won't be an easy task for them to complete this operation.

However, considering the presence of Xi Yan, Zoro felt much more relaxed.

Although Xi Yan is trying his best to keep his identity hidden, Xi Yan will still take action if he encounters unavoidable circumstances.

With this guarantee, the Straw Hat Pirates will not face certain doom.

Having figured this out, Zoro stopped worrying and simply continued with the plan.

Then, as if remembering something, he looked down at Vika and said, "From what you're saying... you also have a conflict with Doflamingo?"

"Yes!"

"No, that's a secret!"

"Ah... I said it again..."

Vika's eyes welled up with tears again. How could she be so stupid?

Zoro shook his head upon seeing this; this guy really loves to cry.

"Hey, stop crying, aren't we at the Flower Field yet?"

"Climb those stairs over there." Vika, peeking out from Zoro's collar, pointed to the stairs beside him and said, "Then..."

Before she could finish speaking, she saw Zoro run off to the side without looking back.

Vika:???

"Didn't I say I'd climb the stairs?!" Vika exclaimed, dumbfounded. "What are you doing?"

Zoro:...

Zoro stopped and paused for a moment, then turned and ran back towards the stairs he had just come from.

"Are you an idiot?" Vika asked seriously.

"Shut up!"

Vika curled her lip upon hearing this. This guy is an idiot, an idiot even dumber than her.

But soon, Vika realized how naive she had been.

Because this human was even more directionally challenged than she had imagined!

He insisted on going right when the path clearly led to the left.

He was supposed to go up the stairs, but he insisted on going down.

Vika felt completely numb after walking this far.

"I'm really impressed with you," Vika said. "There's a limit to how bad you are at directions!"

"It's so noisy... it's unbearably noisy!"

Zoro retorted stubbornly, "It's just taking a slightly longer route."

"A little?"

"Where is it slightly off?"

Vika pointed ahead and said, "We've gone in the opposite direction from what I told you, and we've taken the wrong turn 27 times!"

"The steps I should have climbed, I somehow ended up going down 31 times!"

"Is this what you call 'slightly'?"

"Where is it even slightly?"

"The Flower Field is getting farther and farther away!"

"Please, can you be serious for once?!"

Vika was furious; she had never seen anything so outrageous.

"It's so noisy!" Zoro said, annoyed. "It's clearly a problem with your navigation system!"

"No... no, that's not it!"

"It's your fault!"

Vika, who was so angry that she cried, raised her hand and punched Zoro in the face, sending him flying into the air before he crashed heavily to the ground.

This scene left the people standing nearby completely dumbfounded.

What's wrong with this person?

"Hey, how come he can fly by himself?"

"Have no idea..."

Let's move away from each other.

Although they didn't know what was going on, they instinctively felt they should stay away from this person.

Ignoring the reactions of those around him, Zoro snapped, "Ouch! What are you doing?"

"I need to report the location of the Donquixote Family to my companions as soon as possible, so please be serious!"

As she spoke, Vika punched Zoro in the chest a few times, almost making Zoro cough up blood.

"You're going to break my bones, you bastard!"

Zoro grabbed Vika and said with displeasure, "Don't use your superhuman strength to throw tantrums so easily!"

Does this little guy have no idea how strong he really is?

After getting up from the ground with a disgruntled look on his face, Zoro said, "It's not just you who's anxious, I also want to get the news to my crew as soon as possible!"

He had no confidence whatsoever if he wasn't sure about the situation on the Thousand Sunny.

"Um?"

Seeing Vika's defiant expression, Zoro snorted and said, "Since you have a problem with that, then go find a stray cat to help you."

After saying that, Zoro placed the defiant little guy in a nearby flower bed and left without looking back.

"Hello!"

"Please wait a moment..."

Watching Zoro disappear into the distance, tears welled up in Vika's eyes again.

What should she do?

"Where did that guy run off to again?" Perona said, exasperated. "Could he have gotten lost again?"

Honestly, I only didn't see him for a little while, and this idiot got lost...

For a moment, Perona didn't know what to say.

"Now what am I supposed to do? Where am I supposed to find this directionally challenged person?" Perona said, exasperated.

If we don't use Devil Fruit abilities, we really won't be able to find Zoro anytime soon.

However, if they were to use their Devil Fruit abilities, it would reveal the Straw Hat Pirates' presence here.

Damn it, what should she do?

Should we go straight back to the Thousand Sunny to find Nami and the others?

But without me, would Zoro, who has absolutely no sense of direction, have even made it out of Dressrosa alive?

Just then, a timid voice came from the flower bed nearby.

"You... you're the same person who's terrible with directions?"

"Um?"

Perona paused upon hearing the sound, then instinctively looked down towards the flowerbed, where she saw a... Tontatta looking at her with teary eyes?

"Huh?"

"Eh!!!"

Perona, who was Tontatta, was dumbfounded.

What kind of thing is this?
