Kirby, the God of Pirates

In the desert in the early morning, there was an indescribable cold current.

It's like a gangrene attached to the bones, starting from the soles of your feet, gnawing at your skin, all the way up, until it penetrates your brain, carving the word "cold" into every cell of your body.

From the beginning, I was walking aimlessly in one direction, until now, I was sitting paralyzed in the sand.

It only takes one night in the desert to wear away all your energy and patience.

On a lower shady side, the high quicksand continues to slide down to the bottom of the valley, where a few figures can be seen.

There were several men and women, most of them dressed simply, vests and shorts, and one person was wearing a straw hat.

After a whole night of wind and sand, the men and women seemed to be exhausted physically and mentally. They were sitting in a group, not knowing what they were discussing.

In the distance, a huge round sun slowly rose.

People remember how powerful it is. As early as the first day they arrived here, they were about to be roasted to death. At this time, they were still in the desert. They couldn't imagine what it would be like during the upcoming six-hour noon. .

"Can you see the border?"

Nami raised her head and shouted, and the backlight shone on the girl's face, showing a trace of exhaustion.

"I can't see it! I can't see it at all!"

Luffy was lifted up by Zoro Sanji, his hair straightened, and he flew straight up. He turned into a rubber balloon at an altitude of [-] meters and observed the situation nearby.

However, the desert was really huge. Luffy stared at it for a long time, but he couldn't even see the boundary.

...

In fact, everyone had already taken a rough look at the situation on the ground while they were in mid-air.

Thousands of meters in the air, looking down through the clouds, one could see that they had indeed landed in the middle of the desert.

They didn't realize it at first, but after walking all night, everyone realized the seriousness of the matter.

According to Abis' preliminary estimate, if they walked straight along a straight line, it would take half a month at the fastest to get out of this desert. By that time, the body would probably be completely cold.

Everyone had already considered this possibility, but no one said it.

In such an environment, one thought can completely destroy your confidence. It's not that people don't dare to think about it, but they are afraid.

I'm afraid that once I say it, I will be buried in this remote natural cemetery.

"and many more!"

Luffy's voice suddenly came from the air. Everyone looked up and felt their throats were extremely dry.

The boy's eyes widened as if he had discovered something.

All you can see in the sky is quicksand and nothing else, but if you look carefully, you can indeed see some vague differences.

Following the boy's gaze, he saw a tall wall standing majestically. In the wind and sand, it completely turned into the color of the desert, as if it had stood for thousands of years. It was magnificent and vast, like the Great Wall.

Why is there a wall in the desert?

Luffy couldn't think of anything even if he tried hard, so he simply remembered the direction and flew down.

"Listen to me..."

...

After listening to what the boy said, everyone couldn't explain what was going on. They just felt a little strange. But now they only saw such a place. They only paused for a moment and then started on their way.

Traveling in the desert is the most boring thing. Fortunately, there are people around who can talk, but in order to save saliva, a few people hardly talk.

...

"Cuckoo..."

Luffy's stomach protested on time, and he had no meat for three meals a day. Less than a day later, the boy's whole body was already starting to feel weak.

"I'm so hungry..."

The boy had a bitter look on his face and kept rubbing his belly. However, hunger was not an easy problem to solve. The more he rubbed his belly, the more hungry he felt.

Abis has been silent since the beginning, just walking in the direction pointed by the boy. The same goes for everyone.

So far, although it is unreliable to place expectations on a high wall, it is better than bare nothing.

"..."

Halfway through, the girl suddenly stopped and bit her lower lip as if hesitantly.

Everyone looked at the girl strangely, and after a while, they saw Abis gently picking off the white flowers on her temples and spreading them in the palm of her hand.

"I think it's better that we don't get over it..."

"I have a feeling it's not a good place to be."

Gently shaking the small white flower in her hand, Abis's eyes flashed with determination.

"Look, I also have a bouquet of volcanic flowers here. Its body fluids are enough for us to cross this desert. Compared with those unstable factors, walking in a straight line is the safest way."

"Wow! I forgot about it! And this thing!"

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

"Haha! No need to die!"

Everyone has seen the power of the Volcano Flower before, and when they think of the huge vines and the super tough cover, they always feel powerless.

But now it's better. I heard from Luffy that the Volcano Flower has been conquered by Abis long ago. In this endless desert, the juice of the Volcano Flower can always bring people a sense of security.

"Give me some water quickly. I remember that stuff tastes good and fills my stomach!"

Looking at the white flowers in Abis's hand, Usopp felt his mouth go dry for a while. The depressive atmosphere before almost made the boy breathless. Now that his life was guaranteed, the boy became active again.

"Take it!"

Abis made a casual stroke, and a stream of light green liquid flew towards Usopp. The boy drank it all in one gulp, feeling satisfied.

"I want it too! I want it too!"

Nami had also seen this liquid, so she naturally knew its benefits, and everyone's spirits were lifted, and they all reached out to ask for it from Abis.

Only Luffy still looked bitter.

"But this is not delicious at all..."

There was light green liquid in the boy's cheeks. Recalling the feeling of being in the mask before, he still felt uncomfortable.

The feeling of being swallowed whole by a plant is really uncomfortable. In other words, Luffy is a rubber man and the Volcano Flower cannot digest it. Otherwise, even if Abis conquers the Volcano Flower, Luffy may not have any bones left by then. .

"Cut the nonsense and drink!"

Abis was extremely powerful and slapped Luffy's mouth with one hand. The boy's eyes trembled violently, and all the green juice in his mouth was sucked into his abdomen.

Fortunately, this guy was a rubber man, so he didn't choke his throat, and all the green juice flowed into Luffy's mouth without wasting a drop.

"Ha! I have strength!"

The boy's energy perked up, and he raised his arms as if he had come to life.

The body fluid of the volcanic flower is something that is hard to find. Needless to say, its effectiveness is needless to say. Even if the taste is a little lighter, it is not comparable to ordinary things.

"I made a decision!"

Luffy suddenly straightened his hat and pointed a finger in the direction of the high wall.

"Since we don't have to worry about food and water, let's go over there and take a look!"

"I agree!"

Before Luffy finished speaking, Usopp also raised his hands in agreement. The boy had just finished drinking the green juice, and he felt that every cell in his body had come alive, and there was endless energy in his whole body. If he looked carefully, Usopp The originally flat shoulders actually "stretched out" a hint of muscle.

"..."

Several people went to sea for adventure and treasure, and they almost coincided with each other. From the moment they decided to go out to sea, Abis opened her mouth but didn't say a word.

[Are you sure you want to let them do this? 】

The voice of Volcano Flower suddenly came from her mind. Abis was slightly startled and continued to follow the others without saying a word.

【Don't worry about it. 】
