There was silence all around, and the bear slowly walked towards the unconscious Luffy.

Just as he was about to reach out and lift Luffy up from the ground, a powerful and swift slash struck from behind.

【Lion Ode】

The bear turned slightly sideways, and the slash struck him hard on the shoulder. His robe was torn, revealing a squeaking mechanical arm.

Zoro's eyes narrowed slightly and his voice was a little hoarse.

"A reformer like Franky."

The bear didn't answer, one eye glowed red.He opened his mouth, and yellow light accumulated in his mouth.

Seeing that the secret passage was not good, Sauron stamped his feet on the ground and kept moving before the devastating beam arrived.

"Boom!"

Although he was not hit directly, the huge impact of the explosion knocked him to the ground.

Zoro, dripping with blood, struggled to hold himself up and sat cross-legged on the ground.

He looked at the place that had just been hit by the beam. The rubble turned into smoke and dust, and the steel melted into liquid.

too strong.

It was his only thought.

“Although we are both reformers, Franky and I have completely different strengths.

I was called a 'pacifist', the government's unfinished human weapon.

The developer is the government's genius scientist Dr. Vegapunk, a man with the best mind in the world.

It is said that his scientific level is in a field that humans will only reach after 500 years. "

"A pacifist, with that kind of body, and also a person with abilities? I feel like my hope is even slimmer."

Zoro chuckled and looked at his trembling hands.

"My body has begun to lose control."

"Are we going to take Luffy's head anyway?"

He looked at the tall figure in front of him.

"This is already the biggest concession."

"understood."

Zoro put his hands on the ground, lowered his head slightly, and there was a hint of pleading in his voice.

"I can give you my head, but please use my head to replace him!"

Xiong's usually cold face showed the slightest trace of emotion.

"Although my current head is not very famous, it is the head that will become the world's greatest swordsman in the future. If you take it now, it won't be too much of a loss."

"Since you have such ambitions, are you still willing to die for this man?"

"Apart from this, is there any other way to save our comrades? If you can't protect your own captain, what's the point of being ambitious?"

Ignoring the blood dripping on his face, he looked at the bear with sharp eyes and said firmly: "Luffy is the man who wants to become the Pirate King!"

Xiong looked at the man in front of him in silence, whose body was covered with bruises but whose eyes were full of sharpness.

A clear voice broke the silent scene.

"Wait a minute, stinky swordsman! What if you die!"

The black figure stumbled towards the two of them.

"Idiot! If you die, what will happen to your ambition? What will Miss Anne do?"

"You bastard!"

Zoro looked at Sanji, who was in tattered clothes, standing in front of him, and there was finally a slight tremor in his voice that was not easily noticeable.

"Sexy cook..."

"Hey, big guy, it's better to take my life than this green algae head!"

"What did you say! Curly eyebrows, bastard! Get out of the way!"

"You can't order me!"

"Are you actually fighting to die?" The bear tilted his head slightly.

"In that case, you'd better see hell first before making a decision."

He picked up Luffy beside him and pushed it forward with his palm.

"stop!"

"Let him go!"

"Don't worry, I didn't want to do anything to him."

He pushed out a red bear paw air ball from Luffy's body, and then looked at the two of them.

"This is the fatigue, pain, and injuries accumulated in the previous battle with Moria that popped out of his body. You try it first, and then tell me your choice."

He reached out and drew through the air mass, and two small bubbles separated from it and slowly floated into their bodies.

"Ah~"

It hurts, it hurts beyond belief.There were obviously no wounds, but every pore was struggling to breathe.

The pain flowed with the blood to the internal organs, until he held his heart in his hands and kneaded it wantonly.

Due to the pain, their faces were only pale, and large beads of sweat came out in small drops, dripping on the ground... They clenched their hands tightly, and the meridians on the back of their hands almost burst the skin.

"Now, do you still choose to die for him?"

Faced with Xiong's question, the two did not hesitate at all.

"Yes!"

"Idiot! What are you talking about!"

"Asshole! I should be the one to say this!"

Sanji opened his hands with a look of determination.

"Exchanging my life for the captain's life is a bargain!"

He tilted his head slightly and said in a calm tone: "You guys, go find a new cook."

A green figure flashed to Sanji's side, and Qiushui's knife hilt suddenly struck Sanji's waist and abdomen.

"Although the Navy still despises me now, from now on the most troublesome person in our group will be me, Blackfoot Sanji!"

The handle of the knife hit his waist and abdomen for the second time, and the pain caused Sanji's originally handsome face to twist slightly.

"Do it! Take my life. I am always ready to die for them. Let me die gloriously here!"

When the handle of the knife hit his waist for the third time, Sanji finally couldn't help but hold down his hand.

"Are you annoyed? I keep knocking, knocking! It hurts, do you know? You bastard green algae head!"

"Who told you to keep refusing to faint?"

"Do you think I don't know what you want to do? Idiot swordsman!"

"Huh? I think you are the one, perverted cook!"

"What did you say? Do you have to argue with me now?"

"Obviously you were the one who quarreled with me first!"

"If you travel, where would you like to go?"

The two people who were arguing turned back to look at the bear.

"Noisy!"

【stunned】

A flash of light hit Sanji, and he immediately fell asleep with his teeth and claws open.

Sauron looked back at Anne in horror, the wand aimed squarely at his body.

"Annie! No!"

His pupils suddenly dilated, and the familiar suffocating fear from many years ago swept through his body again.

Anne's slightly raised corners and parted lips were reflected in her eyes. The wind was howling, and her mind went blank. It was impossible to hear what Anne was saying.

"don't want!"

【stunned】

The glowing green palms were printed on their chests, and the gurgling blood stopped. The dense wounds on their bodies began to scab slowly, and the damaged internal organs and bones in their bodies also began to slowly repair.

The bear looked motionlessly at Anne, who was sweating profusely and with pale lips on the ground, without saying a word.

After a long time, Annie slowly opened her eyes, put the two of them into the space, stood up and looked at the bear.

"That's almost it. That's it! It's time for you to know the answer you want."

She was a little speechless. Why did the Revolutionary Army and the Navy like to conduct personality tests?

"It's not easy to go back like this."

"Is that so?"

Annie tilted her head, her eyes full of amusement.

"Then I'll fight with you."
