【One Piece】Dawn in the Darkness

"Hey, sorry to bother you," a clear voice said. "Would you mind letting my friends get some sleep? They've had a long day."

"Aren't you drunk?" Ikalem asked in shock as he looked at the two people standing on the roof.

"As a swordsman, I will never be so stupid as to let alcohol take over my control." Zoro stood next to Qi with a knife in his hand and grinned. "There are about 100 of you bounty hunters. I'll keep you company, Baroque Studio."

"Do you need help, Zoro?" Qi said with a smile.

"No, just watch carefully!" Zoro grinned and said, "Let me try the Sandai Kitetsu and Xuezou that I got in Rogue Town!"

Then Zoro flashed and jumped directly into the crowd. Then bounty hunters from Baroque Studio fell one after another, but they couldn't find Zoro.

……

On the other side, Nami woke up in the wooden house with an excited smile on her face. She then began to search the house, trying to find the treasure she needed. She was very glad that Zoro was outside fighting those bounty hunters, so she could search for treasures at will without being chased.

Soon she collected all the treasures in this place, but Nami was not satisfied because the treasures of these bounty hunters were so little. She began to move the collected treasures to the ship.

……

Zoro had already chopped down all the bounty hunters and was cleaning up the last batch of bounty hunters, the mayor and those who had risen again. Just when Zoro was about to end it, a sudden female voice made him stop what he was doing.

"Don't move." Ms. Wednesday pointed a knife at the sleeping Luffy, and then threatened the swordsman, "If you act rashly, your important companion will lose his life."

"That guy, at least wake up before being a hostage." Zoro said speechlessly as he looked at Luffy who was still sleeping soundly. Then he quickly rushed over and knocked down the woman who held Luffy with the back of his knife. Soon the remaining bounty hunters were also chopped down by Zoro.

"It's quiet now." Zoro jumped onto the roof where Qi had been watching the battle.

"Here!" Qi threw a bottle of wine to Zoro, then looked at the roof on the other side and said, "Someone else is coming."

"How pitiful! You actually lost to a swordsman." A mocking voice came from the rooftop. A girl holding an umbrella and a curly-haired man were standing on the roof.

"Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentine!" Ikalem looked at the two people seriously. "Are you here just to laugh at us?"

"It's really lively tonight!" Zoro drank while looking at the situation below. The two newcomers seemed to be here to catch the traitor of Baroque Studio.

"The princess of Alabasta is hiding in a place like this." Strange said, "Isn't Alabasta in the midst of a civil war? Why would the princess come here?"

"How did you know?" Zoro asked while drinking the wine in his hand, and then looked at Luffy lying between the two groups of people, and said helplessly, "Luffy is still in the middle of the road."

"It was reported in the newspapers about the situation in Alabasta, but it was just criticizing the king of Alabasta for causing the people to suffer." Qi said, "But the authenticity of this kind of thing is not very credible."

Qi watched helplessly as Zoro dragged Luffy away from between the two groups of people who were confronting each other, and was then grabbed by the mayor's trouser legs and asked for his help. Then Nami suddenly appeared and demanded 10 billion Beli for help. Qi was a little surprised at how this turned out.

He looked at Luffy lying on the road with a big belly from eating too much, and was speechless. Luffy didn't wake up even after such a quarrel. He turned to look at the fleeing princess and the two weirdos chasing after her, and decided to follow them. After all, if the princess died, they would no longer have the 10 billion Beli.

……

"I am a bomber who can explode all over my body!" Mr5 chased after Princess Weiwei and shouted proudly, "With the power of this bomb fruit, there is no task that I cannot accomplish... Don't even think about running away! Princess!"

"Really? That's pretty scary." Qi said with a smile, and at the same time his figure appeared behind Mr.5. When Mr.5 wanted to press the booger towards him, he immediately entered Mr.5's shadow, then came out of the shadow with some disgust, and then jumped to the side, "Don't make such a disgusting bomb."

"You are the man who was on the roof with the swordsman just now, right? Are you with the swordsman?" Ms. Valentine said to the man who suddenly disappeared and reappeared.

"Why do you want to protect the princess of Alabasta?" Mr5 asked, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Because it costs too much to keep a captain, and we want money." Qi said with a smile.

"Hmph, don't underestimate us!"

With that, Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentine began to attack, and Mr. 5 dug another booger "Nose Fantasy Cannon!"

Ms. Valentine opened the umbrella in her hand. "Look at the power of my Light and Heavy Fruit!" She flew up into the sky. "Go to hell, under a weight of 10,000 kilograms!"

Qi dodged Mr. 5's booger cannonball by moving sideways, then quickly approached him, bent down, and swung the pipe in his hand vigorously, knocking him into the sky, hitting the falling Ms. Valentine "Wow!!"

Qi then dodged closer to the two people who fell and kicked them in the head. "Good, solved."

I looked at the man with slight surprise. He defeated Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentine in just one round. Is this man really a newcomer in the Grand Line?

"Come on, Your Highness, it's time for us to go back." Qi walked towards Princess Weiwei who was sitting on the duck. He turned his head slightly to look in the direction where the noise came from. Zoro was coming.

Zoro, who was forced to come and rescue the princess, looked at Qi who was walking towards him with the princess and said, "The princess has been rescued."

"Yeah, but Luffy seems to be looking for you." Qi said with a smile, "He is still angry."

"Luffy?" Zoro asked in confusion.

"Zoro!" An angry Luffy was rushing towards Zoro. "I will never let you go. Let's fight!"

"What are you talking about?" Zoro looked at Luffy who was rushing towards him in confusion.

"You actually chopped down all the villagers who welcomed us warmly and gave us delicious food!" Luffy shouted angrily, and then punched Zoro. "I will beat you, a person who repays kindness with enmity, away!"

"Hey, Luffy, listen to me, those townspeople are bounty hunters!" Zoro explained while dodging Luffy's attack, but seeing the strength of his attack, he suddenly shouted angrily, "Are you serious? Come on, fight!"

Qi watched this farce helplessly. According to Luffy's logic, he probably thought that all those who gave him food were good people. Forget it. Qi flashed and stood behind the two of them, with his hands wrapped in armed color, and punched them both on the head.

"it hurts!"
