Vice Captain of One Piece

Chapter 302 Prelude to Battle 2
"Rab..."

Luffy, Encore, Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp looked surprised, almost at the same time thinking of the huge whale at Gemini Cape, the whale that was sad because the promised person was late.

"That whale..." Luffy opened and closed his mouth a few times in surprise before saying, "We know each other."

"Know?" Franky looked at him strangely, and then remembered that in the photo album recording their sailing life, he seemed to have seen the Straw Hat Pirates, who had only six people at that time, on a promontory. A group photo of the photo, the background of the photo is an impossibly large whale head.And there are many pictures of the whale alone with the logo of the Straw Hat Pirates (originally it was a photo of the whale carrying the Golden Merry, but unfortunately Merry was too small in comparison to be seen), he at that time Thought it was just a fake decoration.

"Could it be, that photo..." Immediately associating it with the skeleton, Franky was immediately dumbfounded.

"...", Sanji took a puff of cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring and said lightly: "We know that whale, it's at Gemini Cape at the entrance of the great route. It's just like the picture, it's as big as tens of meters Enormous whales whose headland entrances are completely blocked."

Zoro took his words, "But at that time, it always hit its head against Cape Twin Cape desperately like suicide. Luffy, who knew the reason, fought with it, made a new agreement with it, and finally made it stop. This kind of suicide. That guy must be alive now, waiting for his partner there."

"It has been sticking to the agreement for 50 years, but it didn't expect that one of the colleagues that Raab was waiting for was that skeleton..." Anke said softly, and then he was a little thankful that he took a lot of photos of that whale out of curiosity. .

"Wow!!!", Frankie was so moved that tears flowed down like a faucet, crying and howling: "Whether it's a skeleton or a whale, I like it too much, yes!!!"

Zoro disturbed by his earth-shattering cries.Sanji and Usopp immediately covered their ears in sync and shouted impatiently: "It's so loud! Shut up!!"

"I'm so excited~~ Not only is he a musician, he's a talking skeleton, he's an afro, he can say 'yo ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho,', and he's Labo's companion.~" Luffy finished counting excitedly After learning about the merits of the bones, he immediately made up his mind and said, "I've decided, even if it's forced, I want him to be my partner! Do you have any objections?"

"Hehehe~~", Robin said in a joking tone with a smile: "Even if you have an opinion, will you listen to us?"

"I really want him to meet Rab~~~", after Usopp finished speaking expectantly, he immediately thought of something and rushed into the aquarium where the photo album was placed, "I decided, I want to take the photos to him to see ~~”

"Agreed! Damn it!!", Faucet No. [-] Franky raised his hands and shouted
"Me too!! I'm not afraid of skeletons at all!!" Chopper No. [-] from the faucet also raised his hoof in agreement.

"Compared to such obvious things..." Sanji immediately erupted into a volcanic anger, "I'm going to stop Miss Nami from getting married!!"

"Hahaha~~", seeing their agreed reaction, Luffy smiled happily for a while, only to realize that Sauron didn't seem to be there, and only Sanji's black suit was neatly placed where Encore was sitting. over there.

After being stunned for a while, he immediately ran to the wooden bridge, just in time to see the two people walking slowly.Thinking they disagreed, Luffy pursed his lips a little sadly.

Sensing a strange sight, Encore immediately turned around and waved to the captain who was planting mushrooms: "Luffy, come quickly~~~"

Sauron also stopped in his tracks and said with a smile, "That's right, there is one more shadow to get back. We need to start as soon as possible, right?"

"Okay~~~~", the captain who was full of energy immediately raised his hands and shouted: "Brothers! Smash this terrifying three-masted sailing ship!! Come aboard!!"

"Oh!!!!!!!!!!"

Before rushing in, the Straw Hat Pirates were discussing the next plan and personnel allocation on the wooden bridge. After all, they are now going to retrieve the food added by Nami, Shadow and Luffy.

"However, it may take a lot of work to find the shadow of Luffy and the cook." Sauron

Chopper said nervously: "Besides, Luffy's zombie is really amazing! It's twice the height of a normal giant. I wonder if you can beat it.",
"And not only grow up," Usopp, who had seen the giant with his own eyes, also reminded: "There is a shadow of Luffy in his body!"

"What are you talking about?" Sauron said impatiently: "No matter how strong he is, in order to get back the shadow, we can only defeat it, right?"

Lu Fei said in a deep voice: "There's no need to look for zombies or anything, although I also really want to know what my zombie looks like."

"What are you talking about?" Sanji frowned and looked at him: "If we keep like this, we will never see the sun again!"

Luffy said as a matter of course: "But didn't the zombie uncle say that at that time? As long as Moria is defeated, our shadows will all come back!"

Hearing Luffy's words, everyone was stunned to varying degrees, and then they thought that Luffy was originally a fearless character, as long as he fought for a reason, no matter the opponent was Shichibukai or whatever, he would be beaten to death.

"You can go up this staircase to Moria. Anyway, I will defeat Moria! Then the shadow will come back~", Luffy smiled and said his plan, and then said to the cook on the side: " Sanji, Nami, I'm counting on you!"

"Oh!!!!" Thinking of the beautiful woman who was robbed, Sanji immediately burned as if he had eaten dozens of tons of gunpowder, "Who will let them get married!! Whether it is a transparent person or a pottery celebrity! I want him Kick to the end of the fog! Whoa!!!"

Looking at the angry man, Usopp didn't know whether he was in the mood of watching a show or just wanted to tell him, he dropped a bombshell expressionlessly, "I forgot to say, that transparent man is in the bathroom It was time to see Nami."

"Yeah." The simple Chopper just nodded in agreement with the fact.

"What?? Bastard!!!!!!!!!", Sanji's face was flushed with anger, his eyes were flaming as if he had swallowed hundreds of tons of gunpowder again, bursting out with raging anger that was extremely dazzling and bright under the dark sky.

"..." Looking at the erupting cook, Sauron said kindly with the corner of his mouth twitching, "Don't provoke him anymore, it always feels like he's about to transform."

"Transparent man, you bastard!!!", Sanji, who spewed raging flames again, now only has the idea of ​​kicking that transparent man to the ends of the world.

Chopper squinted at the people in the flames, and said in disbelief, "It's so powerful, it's about to explode~~~"

Therefore, everyone tacitly decided to let the cook vent his anger and calm down there, and continue to discuss the next plan.

"Nami was taken away right in front of my eyes. I am also responsible for this matter, so I will go with me." After Usopp said the above sentence responsibly, the next sentence immediately resumed his timid and fearful attitude. Instinct, "The most important thing is that I don't want to see Shichibukai again!!!"

"I'm worried about the battle of the skeletons, I'll go to him." After putting on his sunglasses, Frankie looked at Luffy and said, "If you can defeat Moria first, Straw Hat Boy, then the matter will be settled." Solved. Before that, if you are killed by your own shadow, you will be in trouble."

"I'll go with you, Frankie." Sauron put the word "Hedao" on his shoulder, and said with a militant smile, "I'm very interested in how powerful the legendary warrior zombies are."

"Wait a minute, Zoro. Take Encore with you. I don't feel at ease when she looks like no one is with her." Lu Fei said softly, and then gently patted the drowsy child.

"Huh?" Rubbing his eyes lazily, Anke looked up at the person who woke him up in a daze, "Luffy? Is it dawn?"

"It's still midnight, bear with it." Sauron put the knife back to his waist, walked over and took her demon knife, and then picked up a little guy.

"That's right, let's get the shadow back first." Franky looked at the sleepy child. Although her sleepiness was worrying, it was more dangerous to let her fall asleep. .

"Oh……"

"Hehe, Ms. Anke, come on~" Robin smiled and glanced at her, and continued to say to the others: "Nami and Shadow, the most leisurely thing to do now is to solve these two things. And defeating Moria is also the key. "

"Why are you talking so easily?" The innocent Chopper looked at the indifferent expressions on their faces in disbelief, "The opponent is Shichibukai!"

Luffy said indifferently: "It's okay, it's the same as Crockdale anyway?",
Hearing that Chopper was so frightened that his eyes protruded, he immediately pointed at a nervous captain and began to lecture: "What do you mean by nothing? You were almost killed at that time!! Please!" Now, be careful!! Although I have said it many times! Your zombies are very powerful!!!”

"Wow!! I'm here to pick you up right now, Miss Nami!!!", Sanji's anger continued unabated over time, and now it continues to erupt like thousands of volcanoes.

"By the way, each of you has a bag of this." Usopp took out a small bulging cloth bag from his carry-on bag and threw it to all his partners, "This is my special Zombie Ascension Salt Bomb."

Encore held the two bags of salt in his hand, a little surprised by Usopp's cleverness.

"Oh, so you were doing this just now," Sauron looked at the bag in Encore's hand, and praised a little unexpectedly: "As expected of Usopp, the preparations are quite sufficient."

"For those of you who have no sense of crisis, let me say the ugly things first." Usopp said with a serious warning on his face: "No matter how deep the sea is surrounded by fog, there is no guarantee that the sun will not shine at all. It's the middle of the night, so it's safe. Remember to regard the dawn of the sun as the worst possible deadline, and this is the only thing, never forget it!"

"You're right! It's too bad not to eat before dawn!" Luffy punched, as if fully aware of the seriousness of the matter, he looked up at the mainmast fiercely: "If you dare to mess with us , will definitely make you regret!! Moonlight-Molia!! I will let you return the food twice!! Before dawn!!”

"Oh!!" Zoro and Sanji, who were full of enthusiasm, responded immediately.

"Hehe~", Anke looked at their high-spirited looks with a chuckle, and gently raised his right hand to aim at the mainmast of Qianyang, "Before rushing in, let's solve one thing first. Let it listen It’s already the limit after so much~~”

"What?" The puzzled partners followed Encore's hand to look at the mainmast, and suddenly found a chubby black bat zombie hanging upside down on it.

Immediately recognizing what that thing was, Usopp and Chopper immediately shouted at the same time: "Ah! That bastard sent us to the zombie graveyard!!!"

"I didn't expect someone to eavesdrop~~ Even zombies are unforgivable~~" Robin crossed his hands with a smile, "Eight-wheeled flowers bloom!"

The bat that was found just about to escape immediately grew several hands to bind it firmly, and then another hand grew from the mainmast and threw it down.

"Ah!!", was ruthlessly thrown from the high mainmast onto the wooden bridge. Just when the bat was trying to raise its head to say something, a huge hand clamped its jaw and forced it to open wide. mouth, and then a salt bomb was thrown in.

After withdrawing his hand, Frankie glanced at the zombie who was spitting out his soul, and said angrily: "We are in a hurry now, really!"

"Zoro, remember to keep an eye on Encore!" After explaining what he was worried about, Luffy rushed in immediately, "Let's go!"

"Oh!" Sauron immediately followed his footsteps.

"What do you mean by being optimistic about me?" An Ke stared at the person hugging him dissatisfiedly, "I'm going to get Chi Yue back!"

"Wait a minute, Nonoroa!" Seeing the Lu Chi running past with Luffy, Franky immediately yelled to follow, "We are looking for the skeleton, not Moriah! !!!”

Hearing this, Zoro immediately stopped, and looked back at a certain abnormal underpants dissatisfiedly, "What, tell me earlier."

"You have a chance to let me say it?!"

"Wow!! Ms. Nami!!!", Sanji, who was on fire all over, roared and rushed over.

Robin, who also ran over with Lu Fei, smiled and nodded to the people standing there: "Then, let's take a step first, Miss Anke~"

"By the way, Anke takes this." Chopper the civet cat ran to Sauron's feet and tried to lift up the small bottle of light blue liquid in his hand, "This is a sober medicine, you can drink it when you are sleepy a little."

"The color is quite nice." Sauron bent down so that the person holding him could get the small bottle.

"Indeed." Encore took it over and shook it.

"Then, I'll go find Luffy and the others first!" Chopper the civet cat immediately returned to the deer shape, and rushed towards the direction they left on his face.

"Let's go find the skeleton too!" Franky immediately ran to another road.

"Oh!"
