You Dare Threaten Senior Xi Yan? You're Asking for Death!

"Xi Yan."

Rayleigh, who had been sipping his drink, looked up at the Den Den Mushi and frowned, saying, "What kind of liquor did you bring this time? Why do I feel so hot all over?"

He initially thought it was just his imagination, but now he feels increasingly hot, which is clearly not right!

Could it be that Xi Yan really did mix something into the drinks?

"It's nothing," Xi Yan grinned. "It's just something men like."

"Shakky-jie specifically told me to make a lot, you should thank Shakky-jie a lot."

Upon hearing this, Rayleigh subconsciously looked up at Shakky, only to find her displaying a sly smile.

Rayleigh:...

Was his return today... at an inopportune time?

"Xi Yan, you brat..."

"Just tell me if this wine tastes good or not," Xi Yan grinned.

Rayleigh paused for a moment, then said with a complicated expression, "The taste is indeed very good, but you..."

"Hey, you'll understand later."

Turning his head to glance at the Great Gate, which had been locked at some point, Rayleigh sighed silently. It seemed there was no escaping it today.

"Stop spouting such useless nonsense," Shakky snorted. "Do you think just anyone can drink the wine brewed by Little Xi Yan?"

"This is something money can't buy!"

That old geezer really doesn't know what's good for him.

This time, Rayleigh didn't say anything, but his expression was even more helpless.

Seeing this, Shakky snorted again, too lazy to pay any attention to this guy.

"Shakky-jie, did you get the information I wanted?" Xi Yan changed the subject.

"No."

Shakky shook her head and said, "The Magnet-Magnet Fruit has never appeared. I suspect... this Devil Fruit may have already been hidden away by someone."

"Fine, let it be."

Xi Yan shook his head. Since Franky wasn't fortunate enough to have that opportunity, he wouldn't force it.

"Okay, that's all the information I have for you today." After glancing at Rayleigh, whose skin was starting to turn red, Shakky smiled and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now. I have things to do."

"OK."

"Kaga ~"

After feeding the two Den Den Mushi a little something, Shakky grabbed Rayleigh's arm and laughed, "Where do you want to go?"

"I'm going out for some fresh air," Rayleigh said awkwardly. "I'll be right back."

"Ha, do you think I don't know what you're up to?"

After picking Rayleigh up, Shakky turned and walked towards the back, saying, "Enough talk, don't waste this pot of wine."

"But I still have coating work to do!"

"Let's go again tomorrow night."

Rayleigh:???

What do you mean by "go again tomorrow night"?

Shouldn't it be tomorrow morning?

Oh no, I'm doomed.

"They have such a good relationship," Perona remarked.

"They've been through thick and thin together, so their relationship is naturally very close," Xi Yan said with a smile.

"Have you ever lived and died together?" Perona glanced instinctively at someone below, then looked away as if she'd been electrocuted.

This scene almost made Xi Yan burst out laughing.

"Xi Yan, what do you plan to do?" Merry asked.

She didn't really pay attention to Perona's gaze; all she wanted to know was how Xi Yan was going to handle this situation.

"What else can we do?" Xi Yan said, shrugging. "Anyway, that BIG MOM isn't a threat to me, so we'll just ignore him."

The people he cares about, even BIG MOM can't harm them, so Xi Yan really doesn't care much about the other party's threat.

Should we tell Luffy about this?

Xi Yan thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Go down and tell him in a bit."

Regardless, Luffy is the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, so the other party has the right to know about this.

"Then let's go down."

After saying that, Merry quickly led Xi Yan and Perona back to Bartolomeo's pirate ship.

"What's going on?" Usopp immediately asked, leaning closer.

"I've received some intelligence." After saying this, Xi Yan glanced at Luffy and called out, "Luffy, come here for a second."

"Ah?"

Luffy, who was interacting with Bartolomeo and the others, paused for a moment upon hearing this, then ran over with a puzzled look and asked, "What's wrong?"

Seeing this, the others followed as well, thinking that Xi Yan probably had something important to announce.

"I just received news that BIG MOM has learned I'm still alive," Xi Yan said. "Furthermore, she has issued a notice in the Underworld demanding that I immediately go to the Totto Land to marry Galette and become her subordinate."

"That bastard tried to steal my crewmate again?!" Luffy instantly turned red with anger.

I could understand if they came once before, but why are they coming again this time?

Does that guy really think he has no temper?

I'm going to beat her to a pulp!

"The Big Mom Pirates actually dared to plot against Senior Xi Yan?!" Bartolomeo exploded in anger, shouting, "She's practically asking for death!"

"Senior Luffy, just give the order, and we'll immediately follow you to attack the Big Mom Pirates!"

What kind of so-called Four Emperors are they? In Bartolomeo's eyes, they're not even Luffy's head.

"Don't rush." Xi Yan raised his hand, signaling Luffy not to get so excited and to let him finish speaking.

However, Luffy clearly couldn't calm down, because what he hated most in his life was someone trying to steal his crewmates.

"Let Xi Yan finish speaking first." Zoro pressed Luffy to prevent the guy from getting so angry that he ran away.

"Her threats are actually useless against me," Xi Yan said. "Besides, I've already made my stance clear to Galette, so we don't need to worry about the Big Mom Pirates. We'll just continue doing what we're supposed to do."

"Luffy, don't forget our target this time is Kaido."

Although they are not afraid of the Four Emperors Crew, there is no need to provoke two Four Emperors at the same time. They can deal with Kaido first, and then go and make trouble for Big Mom.

Seeing that Luffy's expression was still not calm, Xi Yan continued, "Are you planning to leave Nami and the others to cause trouble for the Big Mom Pirates?"

"Also, don't forget what our purpose is in going to Wano Country!"

Luffy paused for a moment upon hearing this, then calmed down completely.

Yes, Xi Yan is right, we can't abandon Nami and the others.

Moreover... their trip to Wano Country wasn't just to defeat Kaido, but also to confirm whether Moria was there.

He had promised Perona this.

"Xi Yan is right, provoking two Four Emperors is not good for us," Nico Robin added.

"I see."

Having calmed down, Luffy nodded and said, "But... I'll beat Big Mom to a pulp sooner or later!"

"After we deal with Kaido, it'll be her turn!"

Perfect timing! Once he defeats Big Mom, he can place the Straw Hat Pirates ' flag on Fish-Man Island.

In this way, Fish-Man Island can be under his protection.

"Esteemed seniors, if it's inconvenient for you to take action, you can let me do it!" Bartolomeo said, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth. "I can help you take them down."

To dare threaten Senior Xi Yan like that is simply courting death!

"You better behave yourself," Xi Yan said irritably. "They're not someone you can handle."

Bartolomeo's Devil Fruit ability is indeed quite good; it can block most physical attacks.

However... no one knows if there are any special ability users in the Big Mom Pirates who can counter the Barrier Fruit.

If that had happened, Bartolomeo would have been in serious trouble.

"But..."

"No buts!"

"Yes..."

After being rebuked by Xi Yan, Bartolomeo immediately deflated.

After patting Bartolomeo on the shoulder, Xi Yan looked at the others and said, "We'll deal with BIG MOM sooner or later, but not now."

"Um."

Franky nodded; provoking two Four Emperors Crew at the same time was indeed not a wise move.

Luo, who had witnessed the entire scene, rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

Xi Yan really has a knack for attracting trouble.

If the Straw Hat Pirates were really going to attack the Big Mom Pirates, he wouldn't know whether he should go with them.

After all, this is completely different from the previous agreement.

"Speaking of which..." Usopp glanced at Bartolomeo and the others, whose faces had turned somewhat green, and said, "What's wrong with you all?"

Everything was fine just now, why is everyone suddenly reacting like this?

"Seasick..."

"Ha?"

Several question marks popped up above Usopp's head. What is seasickness?

Is everyone in the pirate crew seasick?

"Can you even be considered pirates?"

"There's nothing we can do about it; we were just ordinary gangsters before..."

After saying that, Bartolomeo shakily took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket and put it in his Barry.

"Chewing gum..."

"Chewing gum?"

Franky looked at Bartolomeo with a puzzled expression. Why was he chewing gum?

The old lady said chewing some gum would help.

"So that's why there's chewing gum everywhere on this ship?!" Usopp said, speechless.

He now understood why there was so much chewing gum residue on that pirate ship.

"I really don't know how you guys got to this New World." Xi Yan covered his forehead, momentarily at a loss for words.

Could these guys be a pirate crew blessed by Lady Luck?

Otherwise, there's no way to explain their situation.

"Boss, there seems to be something at two o'clock."

"There's something there?"

Bartolomeo asked in confusion, "What is that?"

"It's hard to see clearly in the thick fog," the lookout shouted. "We don't know if it's a mountain or a monster."

"How could there be a monster that's mixed up with the mountains?"

Bartolomeo glanced at his younger brother speechlessly. Was the guy hallucinating because of seasickness?

"But that shadow seems to be moving slowly..."

"It must be because you're seasick."

"Not necessarily," Xi Yan said. "This is, after all, New World; anything can happen."

What if it's some Sea Kings?

In the thick fog, isn't that exactly what that enormous creature looks like?

"That's true," Zoro nodded and said, "We even saw a shadow bigger than a mountain back then."

That was something they experienced before they went to the Skypiea, and even now, he can't forget the scene.

"Who cares?" Luffy laughed loudly, "Let's go take a look! Moving mountains and stuff... that'll be really interesting!"

Hey, Luffy!

Usopp grabbed Luffy and said, "It's dangerous to act before confirming the situation, and... shouldn't our priority be escaping this fog?"

"If we hit the rocks, the boat will capsize!"

"Hey, Xi Yan, quickly Water Release Technique: Get us out of here!"

This time, Xi Yan ignored Usopp and jumped to a high place to look ahead.

Although the dense fog reduced his Sharinggan's visibility, he still managed to spot a shadow in the distance.

That thing is definitely moving.

'Could it really be some kind of monster?' Xi Yan wondered to himself.

"Hey, Xi Yan, what are you daydreaming about?"

"Wait a minute, God."

"God?"

Usopp paused for a moment upon hearing Law's voice, then said with a smile, "God or whatever... you really are..."

"This makes me, with a bounty of 200 million Beli, feel really embarrassed."

"Hahaha~"

Seeing Usopp's smug expression, Franky paused for a moment, then appeared beside Usopp with a blank expression.

That look sent chills down Usopp's spine.

Usopp:...

Isn't he getting a little too cocky?

"Admiral- level officer has his eye on you," Luo said expressionlessly.

"Huh?"

Usopp shuddered, his face turning green in an instant.

Yes, with a bounty of 200 million, he has become the Admiral's prey!

"Xi Yan, you must protect me!"

Xi Yan was somewhat helpless as his arm was grabbed the moment he jumped down; how could this kid be so timid?

"Don't worry, everything will be fine."

After offering a word of comfort, Xi Yan approached Luffy and said, "There is indeed a huge shadow moving slowly ahead, but we can't see exactly what it is."

"If I'm not mistaken, then it should be Zou," Luo said in a deep voice.

Zou?

Everyone looked surprised. What did they mean by a huge moving shadow in front of them being Zou?

"Is this why Zou is special, as you mentioned before?" Zoro said, stroking his chin.

"Yes."

After Luo finished speaking, he turned to look at Xi Yan, gesturing for him to return the Vivre Card to him.

Without saying a word, Xi Yan handed the Vivre Card to Luo.

After receiving the Vivre Card, Luo placed it in his hand and said, "Look, the Vivre Card is pointing over there."

"Really?" Luffy grinned. "So, your crewmates are all over there."

"Um."

Luo nodded, then looked up at the thick fog ahead with a serious expression and said, "It's said that Zou relies on the fog and outward ocean currents to prevent invasions, so getting close won't be an easy task."

"The wind is definitely blowing against us." Franky looked around, then shouted, "Bartolomeo, furl the sails and glide forward!"

"Profound..."

Franky:...

Looking at this group of pale-faced idiots, Franky said speechlessly, "What's with this listless reply?"

Seriously, why go out to sea if you get seasick?
