"Faster!"
"Even faster!"
Zoro looked extremely anxious as he watched the Rock Giant begin to move in the distance.
If they were any slower, the enemy's attack would come crashing down.
"I'm already going as fast as I can." Merry looked equally anxious. "But the distance is too great. Getting there safely isn't simple..."
"What did you say?"
Merry froze for a moment, then said, "The distance is too great."
"The next sentence."
"Getting there safely isn't..."
"That's it!"
Zoro's eyes lit up. "You have a way to get me there quickly, right?"
Merry fell silent at that. She did have a way, but if she used it, Zoro's chances of dying would rise sharply.
"There's no time, Merry!"
"I do have a way," Merry said. "I can shoot you out like an arrow. That would be several times faster than flying with me, but you'd directly experience the air resistance. You might even die from the speed."
Whenever she flew with people, she normally formed a streamlined wind barrier around them.
That way, it would neither slow them down nor let the wind reach them.
But without it, they would have to face the wind resistance directly. In that case, someone could die in mid-air.
"Die?"
Zoro suddenly grinned. "I won't die here over something like that."
"Merry, just go all out!"
Die?
Before becoming the World's Greatest Swordsman, he, Roronoa Zoro, would never die in a place like this!
This time, Merry said nothing more. She silently stopped moving, then used the Power of Wind to create a massive Wind Bow.
After creating the weapon, Merry laid Zoro flat across the bow. She was clearly ready to shoot him out.
Zoro:...
He had told Merry to go all out, but being used as a bow and arrow felt
