Wu Biao said excitedly, "It's settled, then. I'll requisition a ship and bring it back. Otherwise, I'd have to make two trips for all of you. With a ship, I can take everyone in one go."
The corner of Aokiji's mouth twitched slightly. He lazily climbed up from the ground, looked at the others, and said, "You guys... get ready to set sail. I'll send you to a nearby island!"
"You make it sound easy. Do you even have a ship?" Nami asked.

Nami rubbed her forehead. "Hey, they're asking for your opinion."
