Whiskey Hill, outside the banquet hall.

"The cactus rocks dancing in the moonlight... You are still so beautiful tonight."

Icarim stood under the moonlight, looking at the moon and reciting poems.

Behind him, nearly a hundred bounty hunters armed with weapons were waiting, their eyes showing the excitement of catching their prey.

At this time, a muscular woman dressed as a nun pushed out the door from the banquet hall and said angrily through gritted teeth.

"Really, those guys still can eat and drink, our food will be eaten up by them soon."

"If you ask me, just kill them when we were at the port. Our town is almost out of food."

Hearing the sound, Ikarem looked back. After the nun approached, he took out a reward sheet from his body and said.

"Ms. Monday, calm down.

"Look at this."

Ms. Monday looked closer, the anger on her face turned into panic in an instant, her forehead was covered with cold sweat, and she said in shock.

"It….+?6…6000?!"

"That straw hat boy actually has such a high bounty."

Ikarem nodded and said.

"I have investigated carefully and found out that the Straw Hat boy is the pirate known as the "Worst Newcomer".

"As long as we can capture him and hand him over to the government, we won't have to worry about running out of food."

At this time, the bounty hunters behind him were also gearing up.

"This is the first time for a pirate with a bounty of 60 million Baileys to catch such a big prey.

"As long as we catch the Straw Hat Kid, our ranking in Baroque Studio should rise a lot! Maybe even I can be promoted to a senior agent with a number! It's really exciting! Hahaha... …”

"After all, we have to thank Mr. 9 and Ms. Wednesday! They brought back a big prey for us this time!"

"That's right! It's all thanks to them this time."

After listening to these people's words, Ikarem nodded in agreement and said to everyone present.

"Mr.9 and Ms. Wednesday are getting drunk with the other members of the Straw Hat Crew inside right now. When they come out, it's time for us to take action.'

At the same time, in the banquet hall.

The lively and cheerful banquet is still going on, but everyone's face is a little more drunk, and they look a little confused.

Luffy was still sitting on the ground, stuffing meat into his mouth.

Beside him, Vivi and Mr.9 looked awkward and stiff, and received warm thanks from the villagers from time to time, which made them even more anxious.

"Phew... I feel so full!"

Luffy breathed out and touched his round belly.

Then he stood up from the ground.

Seeing Luffy stand up, the other members of the Straw Hats who were originally mingling with the people around them suddenly changed their faces from their original drunken look to serious ones.

Seeing this sudden change, Vivi and Mr.9 were shocked. They knew that what was supposed to come was coming.

The other "townspeople" who didn't know what was going on were stunned for a moment when they saw this scene, and then they all tried to persuade him with a smile.

"Hey! Brother Swordsman, keep drinking!"

"Just don't go, Usopp, everyone still wants to hear your adventure stories!"

"Sanji-kun, why don't you come and have a drink with me again?"

Normally, these people might not be able to hold back when faced with such temptation, but now, they already know who these people are, and can eliminate them all with three punches and two kicks.

Luffy picked up the straw hat next to him, put it on his head, then faced the main door and said.

"Let's go!"

"They have been waiting for us outside for a long time!"

The door of the banquet hall was slowly pushed open, and the yellow light spread from the cracks in the door and fell on the faces of nearly a hundred bounty hunters including Ikarem.

Everyone's face was filled with excitement and joy.

"Is the Straw Hat Crew finally drunk? We're about to get that 60 million beli bounty."

"Awesome, that's 60 million Baileys!"

“It’s really exciting!”

"Eh?"

The longing and excitement of these people turned into nothing the moment they saw a few figures emerging from the banquet hall, and they were full of doubts.

At the entrance of the banquet hall, seven figures stood side by side, with half-smiles on their faces.

Suddenly, all the bounty hunters were stunned.

After being stunned for a moment, Ikarem suddenly changed his smile and said.

"Dear guests, why are you out?"

"Let's go in and continue the party!"

Luffy smiled and stared at Ikham and the nearly a hundred bounty hunters behind him.

"Thank you for your hospitality, we had a great time."

"You entertain us so warmly, we can't keep you waiting too long, right?"

"The killers of the Baroque studio!"

When Luffy's last words came out of his mouth, everyone in the room suddenly changed their expressions.

"What? Why do you know our identities?"

"Impossible! Our studio is a secret organization, and our identities are hidden from the outside world. It is impossible for outsiders to recognize us."

"Could it be... Mr. 9 and Ms. Wednesday? They brought these people back. They must have betrayed us and told these people our identities."

"Those two people... dared to betray our Baroque Studio. We will not let them go."

Speculations continued one after another in the field, and in the end everyone put the blame on Vivi and the two.

In fact, both Vivi and Vivi had expected this.

When their identities are exposed, if they cannot get rid of the people who know their identities, there will only be one result, and that is to be hunted down by Baroque Studio.

Because the secrets of Baroque Studio are not allowed to be leaked.

At this moment, Ikarem, who heard these speculations, was stunned, with a worried look in his eyes, and murmured in his mouth.

"AAA..."

At this moment, the anger of the bounty hunters behind them was completely ignited, and everyone was furious.

"The two traitors are inside, let's rush in and kill them."

"Erase them all, along with the Straw Hat Crew."

"So what if the bounty is 60 million Baileys? Don't underestimate the strength of our Baroque Studio.'

"So far, we have killed countless pirates. This cactus-shaped Whiskey Peak is already covered with tombstone thorns. It seems that there will be a few more tombstones tonight.

After the bounty hunters finished speaking, they roared crazily, raised their knives and drew their guns, and rushed towards Luffy and others.

However, at this moment, Ikarem, who was leading these people, suddenly turned around and stood in front of everyone.

His face was gloomy and his expression was stern, and he said in a deep voice.

"I...won't let you pass!"

This sudden scene made all the bounty hunters in the audience stunned again. Even Ikarem's partner, Ms. Monday, looked at him with a confused look on her face.

"Mr.8, what are you driving? Don't block our way!"

"That's it! Come with us to eliminate the Straw Hat Crew and the traitors!"

"Could it be that... Mr.8 you are going to betray us too?"

Faced with the anger and doubts of all the bounty hunters and the doubts of Ms. Monday,

Ikarem did not answer them, but suddenly shouted loudly into the banquet hall behind him.

"Princess Vivi, run away quickly!"

"I'll stop these people!"

In the banquet hall.

Vivi was sitting inside blankly at the moment, her mind in confusion.

Suddenly hearing the shouting outside the door, Vivi suddenly trembled, her eyes showed worry, and she quickly ran to the door.

When she saw Ikarem standing alone in front of hundreds of bounty hunters, Vivi suddenly shouted worriedly.

"Icarim!!"

At the same time, everyone in the audience was thinking about the name Ikarem just called Vivi.

The Straw Hats are here.

"Princess Vivi?! Is that Ms. Wednesday actually a princess?"

"Why would a princess join such a killer organization?"

"What the hell does this happen?"

Bounty hunter here.

"Hey! Mr-8! What was your name just now? Princess? Who are you?"

"Is the princess calling Ms. Wednesday?"

"Princess... the princess around here... hello! Could it be that... she is the princess of Alabasta whose whereabouts are unknown now?"

"Are you actually Alabasta's undercover agent? Mr. 8, Ms. Wednesday!"

"Catch them and hand them over to the boss, we will definitely make a great contribution."

"The Princess of Alabasta, this is more valuable than the 60 million Baileys of the Straw Hat Boy!"

"Hahahaha... Brothers, charge!"

With the sound of discussion and shouting, the bounty hunters completely lost their minds after judging the value of Vivi.

One by one, they turned into hungry wolves, picked up their weapons and rushed forward.

"Princess Vivi, run away!"

Ikarem shouted, and then opened the weapon hidden in his hair.

"Spiky ball horn!"

Ikarem shouted, and the shotgun hidden in his hair kept shooting, and quickly fought with the bounty hunters.

Vivi saw this scene and shouted Ikarem's name worriedly.

"Ikarem!"

Ikarem was certainly no match for a hundred people, and he was beaten all over his body in the blink of an eye, covered in blood.

He looked back at Vivi and said.

"Princess Vivi, don't worry about me, run away quickly." "Don't forget, millions of people in Alabasta are waiting for you to save them!" Vivi looked at Ikarem who was being beaten, tears welled up like a spring, but she gritted her teeth and wiped away her tears as she recalled Ikarem's words in her mind, and was about to flee towards the coast. At this moment, she suddenly heard a voice in her ear. "If you need help, just ask!" Vivi turned her head and looked at Luffy who had been standing there. Vivi was moved and forced a smile, but rejected him. "Thank you, Mr. Luffy. You are very good pirates." "But I don't want to implicate you because of my affairs, it will bring you danger. "

Leaving a word, Vivi turned and ran towards the coast.

A few tears fell in the air.

……………Please give me flowers…………………………

Luffy stood there quietly without changing his expression, but there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

He knew Vivi's character.

He knew she was too kind and didn't want anyone to be hurt, especially because she was hurt.

That's why she refused to accept help from others.

But he secretly cursed Vivi for being naive. How could she escape the pursuit of Baroque Studio by herself?

Especially because he had sensed that two auras were approaching the coast at this moment.

Luffy couldn't tell who the person was just by the aura.

But he remembered that in the original book, the fact that Vivi was Princess Alabasta had been exposed at this time.

And Crocodile sent two assassins here to hunt Vivi.

So Luffy guessed at this moment that the two people should be here specifically to get rid of Vivi.

"I'll leave this to you!"

Luffy left a word and followed They walked in the direction where Vivi had just fled.

Ikalem had already been unable to hold on and finally fell down.

The bounty hunters only had Vivi in ​​their eyes at this moment, and even completely ignored the Straw Hat Crew, intending to chase after her.

But at this moment, three figures blocked their way.

"If you are so energetic, let us play with you! It just so happens that my new knife is now in need of a test subject. "

Zoro smiled, holding the Third Generation Kitetsu in his hand, his eyes obsessed.

"I will never forgive you guys who make the lady cry!!"

Sanji put his hands in his pockets, cigarette in his mouth, standing sideways.

"Let me try my newly developed [Exploding Star] on you!"

Usopp adjusted his glasses and took out a slingshot and a small black ball from his backpack.

[Exploding Star] is a simplified version of the [Mini Buggy Bullet] he developed. The power is only about one-tenth, but it is enough to deal with these small fish.

Whiskey Mountain, a road leading to the coast.

Vivi rode a large land duck and rushed towards the coast.

There were tears in the corners of her eyes, and her mind was full of the scene where Ikarem was bruised and asked her to leave quickly.

"Gah!"

The duck under him, Karu, suddenly quacked and then stopped suddenly.

Vivi was stunned and suddenly asked in confusion.

"What's the matter, Karu?"

"quack!"

Karu yelled, staring straight ahead.

Vivi looked forward and her pupils suddenly trembled.

Opposite her, she saw a man with an afro and sunglasses, and a woman holding an umbrella walking slowly.

"BB..."

Vivi screamed with fear in her eyes.

"Mr-5 and Ms. Valentine!"

"Why are they here?"

Vivi panicked.

Then, she looked at Ms. Valentine opposite and said with a playful expression.

"What a coincidence! We were just coming to find you!"

Vivi was confused.

"Find me?"

Mr.5 and Ms. Valentine said in harmony.

"The boss told us that his secret was discovered."

"Of course, we don't know what kind of secret it is."

"After all, the motto of our Baroque Studio is [mystery], and we cannot investigate anyone in the studio."

"Of course, we can't investigate the boss's identity."

"But, you seem to have violated the purpose of our studio!"

"Her Royal Highness Princess Nephet D. Vivi!!!"

After the two of them finished talking, Vivi's face turned pale for an instant, her pupils trembled and turned white, the fear and tension in her heart reached the extreme in an instant, and she was covered in cold sweat.

After a moment of shock and fear, Vivi suddenly shouted.

"Run away, Karu!"

"Gah!"

Kalu yelled when he heard this, immediately turned around and ran away.

"Don't even think about escaping!"

But at this moment, Ms. Valentine's voice came from behind.

Vivi looked back in horror.

I saw Ms. Valentine jumping up with an umbrella, reaching a height of 100 meters.

The next second, her body was like a comet, falling rapidly towards her with a flying kick.

boom!

There was a loud noise and smoke billowing.

Ms. Valentine landed firmly on the ground, with a large cracked pit beneath her feet.

In front of her, Karu and Vivi fell to the ground, lying on the ground struggling.

Ms. Valentine smiled, walked slowly toward Vivi, and looked at her with amusement.

"You are so naive!"

"We are senior agents of the studio. How could you escape from our grasp?"

Mr.5 also came over at this time and picked out a piece of booger in his nose with his fingers.

"My explosive fruit can turn any part of my body into a bomb. With this ability, all the missions we have carried out have never failed.

"Farewell, Princess Vivi!"

Vivi was lying on the ground with a painful look on her face, her eyes full of despair and unwillingness.

She bit her lip so hard that blood flowed from between her teeth.

She can't die yet!

But right now, nothing can be done.

"If you need help, just ask!"
