This is a small town, but it is very lively, with all kinds of shops lined up one after another, and the streets are bustling with pedestrians.

Yamato strode down the streets of the small town, taking advantage of his height to look around.

Several women who had come with him followed closely behind her, eyeing the passersby warily.

Yamato's abilities are undeniable, but she lacks experience and is as naive as a child.

His Majesty the King and Night King entrusted them with the task of taking good care of this young lady.

Although they couldn't be of much help in the battle, at least they could prevent this young lady from being deceived by others!

"Where, where, where is the interesting guy?"

Yamato's eyes darted around, scanning everyone around him.

As she watched, she also used her Observation Haki to scan the area.

Where exactly is that interesting fellow the Night King mentioned?

It was like an adventure, Yamato enthusiasm.

However, this enthusiasm quickly faded.

Because the town was really not that big, Yamato spent less than an hour exploring the whole town inside and out.

But the person they were looking for never showed up.

At least Yamato using his eyes and Observation Haki.

Standing on the street in the center of the town, Yamato scratched the back of his head in confusion. "Was I not in this town?"

The island wasn't very big to begin with. According to what I sensed with my Observation Haki, it should only have this one small town, with only a few scattered people outside the town.

"But that makes sense,"

Yamato stroked his smooth chin and nodded seriously. "An interesting guy like him certainly wouldn't follow the crowd!"

Let's look around outside of town then, she has plenty of time!

Just as they were about to set off, Yamato's gaze was drawn to several figures.

Across the street, four people walked forward, chatting and laughing.

There are two reasons why Yamato's attention is drawn to them.

First, that guy with the fluffy, spotted hat has a much stronger aura than everyone else in this town, but he's still quite weak. Surely the "special" guy the Night King mentioned couldn't be just this weak?

Secondly...

Wow, there's a bear!

Yamato looked at one of the four people, or rather, one of the bears, with some surprise.

It was a polar bear standing upright, wearing orange overalls.

Seemingly noticing Yamato's gaze, the bear even turned its head to look at Yamato.

"Hello!"

Yamato waved at the bear with a grin.

The polar bear trembled, immediately lowered its head in fear, and silently followed behind the man in the spotted hat, quickly disappearing into the crowd.

"He's Mink Tribe, isn't he?"

Yamato grinned, "Oden's logbook mentioned a special ethnic group living in Zou, Zou!"

"I never expected to see you here!"

"However, Zou is already quite far down my sailing plans, otherwise I could go and ask him where Elephant Island is now."

Unfortunately, this polar bear's dream was also to return to his homeland.

"Let's keep looking for people!"

Yamato is full of fighting spirit.

Unfortunately, she didn't know that she had already missed the person she was looking for.

Not far away, in a bustling crowd.

"Hmm..."

The fluffy polar bear walked along, its body trembling slightly.

"Hey, what's going on, Bepo?"

The man, also dressed in orange overalls and wearing a baseball cap, grinned and nudged the polar bear's soft belly with his shoulder. "Why do you look like you're about to pee your pants?"

"If you're really scared enough to wet yourself, you'll have to wash your own pants!"

On the other side of the polar bear, a man wearing a round hat was also smiling broadly.

"How scary..."

Unexpectedly, faced with his friend's teasing, Bai Xiong didn't argue. Instead, with tears welling up in his eyes, he whispered, "That woman, she's so scary..."

"That woman?"

As the leader of the small group, the spotted-hatted Trafalgar Law, walking at the front, turned around in surprise, "Bepo, you mean that woman with horns on her head from earlier?"

He had noticed that group of people when he passed that intersection earlier.

The town wasn't very big to begin with, and Luo had lived there for many years, so he was familiar with almost everyone in the town.

Therefore, he naturally noticed the outsider immediately when they appeared.

He only found the woman's appearance somewhat peculiar, but he didn't realize how terrifying that seemingly foolish woman was!

"Um!"

Bepo the Bepo nodded repeatedly, his head leaving afterimages. "Very, very terrifying!"

"Hello,"

The man in the baseball cap, Penguin, smirked, "It was just a fleeting glance! What can you deduce from that? It's just your imagination, Bepo!"

"Uncertain."

The man in the round hat, Shakky, looked somewhat serious. "Isn't that what they say? A beast's instincts are often very accurate!"

"I'm not a wild beast!"

Bepo emphasized in a low voice.

"Alright."

Luo said in a deep voice, "We'll find out what happens once we follow them!"

It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't.

He had lived in this small town for several years, and the residents were very warm and friendly to him. Luo had almost come to regard this place as his second hometown.

He absolutely will not allow this place to be destroyed!

"Stalking? That sounds kind of interesting!"

Penguin chuckled.

Don't let your guard down!

Luo said seriously, "If that woman is really as terrifying as Bepo felt—"

"Ah!!!"

A scream suddenly came from afar.

"What?"

Luo was startled instantly.

Has that woman already taken direct action against this town?

However, Luo immediately realized something was wrong.

The screams came from the direction they were moving in, completely opposite to where the woman was.

"Something's happened! Let's go check it out!"

Without any hesitation, Luo led his three friends and quickly headed towards the direction from which the screams came.

As the four hurried along, many panicked residents fled towards them.

After noticing the four people going against the flow, the residents loudly reminded them.

"Don't go over there! Law! It's a pirate!"

Pirates?

Luo's heart skipped a beat.

This is not good news!

But Luo still didn't stop.

No one is allowed to act recklessly on this island!

The boy clenched his fists.

This time, perhaps all we can do is reveal the power of the Op-Op Fruit.

In that case, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay on this island any longer.

But we can't just stand by and watch this town be destroyed by pirates right before our eyes, can we?

Luo gritted his teeth and sped forward.

He quickly arrived at the location of the attack, but the scene there left the boy completely stunned.

"Hey John! Wake up!"

Johnny, what's wrong with you! It's me, Dar!

The place was in complete chaos, filled with screams and cries of terror.

Residents who didn't have time to escape are being attacked.

However, they were attacked not by vicious pirates, but by their familiar neighbors and friends.

A large number of residents, staggering and flushed, with narrowed eyes, attacked other residents like drunkards going berserk.

"What exactly is this—"

Luo was utterly astonished.

What exactly happened? What's wrong with everyone?

"Hahaha! Wolf! Get the hell out here!"

Amidst the wild laughter, Luo finally noticed the group of people behind the staggering drunkard.

The leader was a tall, imposing man, accompanied by an even more muscular and burly fellow.

Behind the two were a group of eager pirates.
