【One Piece】Dawn in the Darkness

Soon they successfully entered the canal of Upside Down Mountain by riding the ocean current, and the next second the Merry followed the ocean current, went upstream, and rushed to the top of the mountain.

"The next step is to wait and rush down!" Luffy sat on the bow, holding onto Merry's sheep's head and excitedly shouted "Oh, I see the Grand Line!!"

"Booooooooooooooooo!!"

"Hey, did you hear anything?" Usopp said in horror.

"Nami, there is a mountain ahead!" Sanji shouted to Nami below from the observation deck. From his position he could see that there was a huge wall on their way down, blocking their way.

"Mountains? That's impossible. After passing the Twin Capes ahead, there should be an endless ocean." Nami said in confusion.

"…That's a whale, such a big whale!!" everyone shouted in horror.

"It's over, we're going to be eaten!" Usopp shouted in despair as he looked at the whale's open mouth in front of him.

"Oh no, we're going to collide. Find a way to stop the boat!" Nami shouted in horror.

"What should we do? What should we do?" Usopp began to circle the ship in panic.

Qi looked around the whale and noticed a gap under the left side of the whale, so he shouted "Zoro, Sanji, turn the rudder, quickly! Let's go out from the right side!!"

After hearing what Qi said, Zoro and Sanji rushed to the control room and turned the rudder to the right.

"Crack!"

"Ruined……"

Sanji and Zoro fell to one side, still holding the broken rudder in their hands. Everyone looked at the wood in their hands in horror.

"We are going to die..." Nami and Usopp hugged each other, their faces full of despair.

"boom!!"

At the most critical moment, a cannon shot was heard, and even the Merry slowly stopped after the cannon shot.

"Okay, the boat has stopped!" Luffy shouted with a smile.

"Are we saved..." Nami muttered to herself.

At this moment, Luffy's favorite special seat hit the whale, and the sheep's head broke directly and flew towards the deck. Qi quickly pulled Nami aside to avoid the sheep's head that was falling towards her.

"Ah! My special seat!!" Luffy shouted in shock.

"Hurry, let's row out before it reacts!" Sanji immediately picked up the oar and began to row hard.

"Get away from this guy!" Usopp shouted in horror while paddling hard.

"Anyway, row!" Zoro rowed hard.

Qi and Zoro were paddling hard on the side, and suddenly he noticed Luffy's move towards the whale's eyes, and he shouted in horror, "Hey! Luffy! Don't!"

"You broke my special seat..." Luffy shouted angrily while stretching out his arm to hit the whale's eye. "!!"

"Idiot!!" everyone shouted in horror.

The attacked whale looked towards them, obviously having discovered them, and then opened its mouth wide, and a large amount of sea water formed a current and flowed into its mouth.

"Wow!! I'm going to fall!" Luffy shouted in panic.

"Luffy!! Hand!!" Qi shouted as he jumped in the direction where Luffy fell and grabbed Luffy's hand in time. Then he felt the pull on his feet.

"Wait!" Zoro reacted instantly when he saw Qi jump out. He rushed over in time and quickly grabbed Qi's feet, preventing him and Luffy from falling together.

"You are such idiots." Sanji shouted, quickly grabbing Qi's other foot, and was about to pull up their vice-captain and captain with Zoro. At this moment, Luffy, who was pulled by Qi, obviously had more ideas.

"I don't want to die!!" Luffy shouted angrily as he looked at the whale's wide-open mouth. He then stretched out his other hand, grabbed the whale's teeth tightly, and threw his body onto the whale.

Qi, who was holding Luffy, and Zoro, who was holding Qi, and Sanji were also thrown off the boat by Luffy's sudden move. Qi was the first to react, and quickly grabbed Zoro and Sanji by the collars and jumped onto the whale with the help of the whale's teeth.

"You idiot!" Zoro stood up viciously, grabbed Luffy's collar and screamed, "Sooner or later I will kill you!"

Sanji also cursed beside him, "Damn rubber head!"

Luffy didn't care about Zoro and the others' angry shouting, he just tilted his head and pouted, it was obvious that he didn't think it was his fault.

Qi was already accustomed to Luffy's behavior, so he did not have any emotional fluctuations, but calmly looked for a way to leave here. After all, the whale seemed to be sinking into the sea. Suddenly he found a door on the whale.

"Luffy, there's a door here." Qi shouted, "Maybe Nami and the others are inside!"

Luffy turned and looked in the direction Qi said, and sure enough, there was a door. He shouted excitedly, "Great! Let's go in and take a look!"

At the moment when the whale dived into the sea, the four of them successfully entered the door, but they did not expect that what they would see after entering was a long iron passage.

"This... is so cool!!" Luffy's eyes turned into stars and he shouted excitedly, then ran around in the corridor excitedly.

"This isn't something a whale should have..." Sanji complained as he chased after the excited Luffy.

"Someone must have built these in the whale's body, but I don't know what the purpose is." Qi said as he ran.

"Wait, is this passage tilted?" Zoro was a little shocked as he looked at the passage in front of him that seemed to be rising continuously.

As soon as Zoro finished speaking, the corridor, which had been flat just now, suddenly rose rapidly.

"Waaaaaahh ...

"Idiot!!" Sanji looked at Luffy in horror as he pounced towards them.

"Ah!!!" As the whale rose twice, Luffy and the others ran downwards at an extremely fast speed.

"Get out of the way!!" Zoro shouted at the two people standing in front of them, and they couldn't stop.

"What a beautiful woman!!" Sanji ignored his situation and ran while becoming infatuated with the blue-haired woman standing in front of the door.

"Wow!" Finally they crashed into the two strangers standing in front of the door, rushed out with them and the door, and then successfully fell into the whale's stomach acid.

"Luffy!!" Usopp and Nami on Merry saw that the people falling out of the door were Luffy and his friends, and they shouted excitedly.

"Save me..." Luffy shouted and struggled, trying to surface, but his heavy body continued to sink into the water like an anchor.

"Hold on, Luffy!" Qi swam quickly towards the direction where Luffy was sinking. Soon he managed to grab one of Luffy's hands, put it on his shoulder, and swam with him towards the boat.
