[OP] The Story of Ming Shi

Since keeping silent couldn't solve the problem, Sora broke the silence.

"Anyway, call everyone to take a look first? Maybe they haven't gone far..."

Then the two shouted the names of their companions at the top of their voices, but unfortunately their voices disappeared in the endless sea of ​​sand, and the only response to them was the whistling of the wind.

"So, what shall we do next?" Sola looked up at Ace, "You are old, you should have a lot of experience, you should have some experience in this kind of thing?"

"Well, let's walk around as you please." Ace poked his head around, "Come on, walk this way."

"..." Is it really okay, Brother Ace?Is this really okay?How do you know that Luffy and the others are going this way?Wouldn't it really go farther and farther this way?Although Sola doesn't agree with Ace's method, he has no other countermeasures. It's dangerous to be alone in the desert, so let's go with Ace...

The two deliberately quickened their pace, but they still didn't see a single figure after walking for a long time.

Ace stopped.

So La then stopped: "Sure enough, you are going in the wrong direction."

"Ah... Luffy, where are you—" Ace yelled to himself as if he didn't hear Sora's words.

But there was still no response, and Ace's voice dissipated in the desert with the wind.

Sora sighed, what to do next... At this moment, the ground began to shake, and then a huge scorpion appeared in front of the two of them.

Oh oh oh, the eyes of this creature are so fierce... Sora wiped his sweat.

Ace was in a bad mood, and he said to the scorpion, "I told you to stop messing around."

No, no, he can't understand you, you're not Chopper.Sora complained in his heart.

The giant scorpion was still arrogant, and Ace exuded a murderous aura.

In the blink of an eye, the bright red grilled scorpions came out of the oven.

"Ah, it's roasted well this time, the heat is just right, and it's not burnt." Sola evaluated, "Do you want some?"

"No need, I'm not hungry from what I ate just now." Ace waved his back to Sola, and continued to move forward.

"Ah, wait for me!" Sola started to amputate the scorpion as quickly as possible. It was rare that the scorpion was roasted so well, and it would be good to take it as a food reserve on the road!

When the part of the roasted scorpion on Sora's back caught up with Ace, he found that Ace was riding an unknown creature.

"What is this...?" Sora looked at the unknown creature.

"Ah, he let me ride." Ace smiled.

Sola quit: "It's so cunning, I want to ride too! Let it lie down and carry two people!"

"Ah? Even so, is it an upright animal?" Ace patted the creature, but the creature didn't respond, "No way."

"...Then you want me to walk alone?" Sola's face was gloomy, "I ask for a shift system. You ride for a while, and I ride for a while."

Ace thought for a while, and proposed another plan: "Then how about you sit on my shoulder?"

"Okay!" Sora climbed up three times, "Oh! The view from the heights is wide! But I still didn't see everyone..."

In this way, Sora sat on Ace's shoulders, and Ace sat on the shoulders of unknown creatures, looking like they were stacking Arhats.

Then they walked all the way like this, and they didn't find anyone until the sun was about to go down.

"Sure enough, I went in the wrong direction..." Sora was about to cry.

"Don't worry, their destination is Yuba anyway, as long as we arrive in Yuba, we can see them." Ace said very optimistically.

"...That's right." Sora clasped his arms and kept rubbing his arms, "It seems to be getting cold..."

"Yeah, it's getting dark." Ace said, "Looks like I'm a little hungry."

"That's just right, the food reserves are working." Sola returned to the ground and removed the scorpion legs on his back, "Eat it, there are so many!"

"Yeah." Ace picked up the scorpion's foot and gnawed on it, "You're quite capable."

"Uh, thank you." Sora was a little embarrassed, and he also started to eat.

After eating, the two started their journey again. Hurry up while the weather is not hot. The efficiency will be higher. They can't keep exploiting that unknown creature...

Since the journey was very boring, Sola began to ask the older traveler some things.

"Ace, have you been to many places?"

"Yes."

"Then have you ever seen a sea palace?"

"Palace? On the sea?" Ace thought for a while, "I've seen the bottom of the sea...on Murloc Island."

"It's not the one on Murloc Island... haven't you seen it?" Sola was a little discouraged, "Then, is there an island in the sky?"

"You mean Sky Island?" Ace said, "But people here don't quite believe that there are islands in the sky, but Sky Island does exist. Why, do you want to go?"

"Well, before... the palace that my father said to be looking for is there." Sora said, "Sky Island... so amazing, Luffy must be very interested. By the way...how do I get to Sky Island?"

After three seconds, Ace didn't respond, Sora was feeling strange, and turned his head to look, huh?What about Ace!

"Ace!" I didn't know if I didn't look at it, but I was shocked when I saw it.Turning around, I saw Ace falling headlong to the ground in an extremely strange posture, with unknown creatures following behind him.

"Hey, don't sleep like this!" Sora rushed over and pulled Ace up from the sand in a panic, "What if I suffocate to death!"

But Ace didn't answer him because he was already fast asleep.

"Oh." Sora sighed.

No way, let's stop here today.Sora dragged Ace to the back of a sand dune, and the unknown creature followed.

Since there was no blanket, Sora buried Ace in the sand with only his face exposed, which would keep him warm.After burying Astola, he began to bury himself.But burying yourself is a difficult job, and in the end there is no way to perfect it and we have to make do with it.

The next day they got up very early and set out on the road before the temperature was too high. After walking for a while, they finally saw a village.

"Is that Uba?" Ace asked.

"...It would be great if it was true, but the possibility of this is very low." Sola said.

"That's right." Ace smiled, "Anyway, let's go and have a look first, and eat something..."

The village was certainly not Juba, but it was a fairly peaceful place.

"I'm going to find something to eat." Ace said, pointing to a building.

"Then let me ask the way, where can I find you later." Sola nodded, and then the two separated.

Finally knowing the direction to Yuba, Sora turned back to find Ace.He was surprised to find Ace sitting at a dinner table in a room with three bruised guys in that building, and he was enjoying himself.

After Sora watched quietly for a while, he felt that the three people were beaten by Ace.Probably because he was afraid of Ace, the only person who was not beaten called him big brother, and was serving him tea and water... "Ace..." Sola couldn't help interrupting the two, walked into the room, and was about to Say "this is not good".But before he could say anything, Ace pulled him to sit down at the dining table, and said enthusiastically, "Don't you eat a little, it's delicious! And they invited me!"

"...Ha." This is a problem solved by violence... Sola was a little speechless. He looked at the food in front of him, swallowed, and finally couldn't resist the temptation of the food, and had a full meal.

The little bastard who called himself the rebel army asked Ace to drive away the sand thieves. Ace agreed, but in exchange he asked those people for a cart full of food and water.

"Sand thief..." Sora pulled the rope and walked side by side with Ace, "I promise to do it, just drive them away. Um... let me help too."

"Okay, but are you okay?"

"Don't look at me like this, I'm actually very powerful!" Sola pouted.

The two went outside, but the sand thief's big boat had long since disappeared.However, there are a few figures in the desert, but this formation looks familiar...

"Ah, it's everyone!" Sora was pleasantly surprised.

"Oh, let's go!" Ace sat on the shoulder of the unknown creature, driving it forward.

"Hey-hey-" Ace yelled.

As soon as Luffy saw Ace, he rushed over: "Ace!"

"Ah, Luffy!" Sora got off the trailer, smiling all over his face, "It turns out that the sand thieves are referring to you."

"Ah, what are you talking about. Sand thief, you just broke up with us." Luffy is not in the state.

"Well, forget it." Ace didn't care about the details, and pointed to the trailer behind, "By the way, you should be happy now, I brought a lot of food and water."

"Oh, it was a great help!" Sanji also came over, "Now you don't have to worry about food shortages for the time being."

"It's all thanks to Ace." Sora said.

"Ace, you are amazing." This is Usopp.

"Really, it's completely different from my brother!" Nami sarcastically got off the camel.

Then everyone went to drink water, when Bibi got off the camel and said, "Well, Mr. Ace...you probably don't have any money to exchange for things, you probably stole it from that village... ..."

"That's nothing, I got it from the rebels." Ace explained.

"The rebel army!" Bibi was surprised.

"But no matter how you look at it, it's just a fake." Sora added, "After Ace beat them up, they called Ace the big brother, and then asked him to drive away the sand thief. In exchange, they gave us These foods."

"Wait, counterfeit... what do you mean?" Nami didn't quite understand.

"In short, they are the bodyguards of the village under the name of the rebel army." Ace said, "The villagers are very grateful to them but they are completely deceived. They are just ordinary punks."

Afterwards, Bibi said that she wanted to try those people's wishes, and then everyone drew up a plan.

"Then five of us can go, and you stay here." Zhuo Luo said.

"Usopp, I will look at you in the mirror when I can, understand?" Nami explained.

"Wait, what about me? Am I not considered a combat power? I'm definitely better than Usopp!" Sora was dissatisfied when he realized that he had no mission.

"Those people have seen you before, and they will expose you." Sanji took a breath, "Besides, you are too young, and you have a face that is easy to bully, so you have no deterrent power. And we just want to Try those people's intentions, and you don't really want to hit them. You are responsible for protecting the ladies!"

"Tch, if I had known, I would have gone to the village with Ace to spread the news..." Sola felt a little regretful.

"What, isn't it important to protect us?" Nami was dissatisfied this time.

"It's not...it's just not challenging." Sora sat behind the shadow of the rock, licked his chapped lips, and took a sip of water from the water bottle.

Bibi's test ended soon. Although those people were punks, they still had the determination to protect the village, so the group began to escape and retreat quickly.

Another day's journey, rest at night.When they got up the next morning, they quarreled again about eating, and finally turned into a big scuffle.Sola hid to the side a long time ago, his cheeks were bulging, but fortunately he ate fast (actually he stuffed all the food into his mouth), um um um um um... (chewing something)

Then a strange thing happened, there was a hanging rod with meat hanging down, and then, Luffy ran away with the meat.The ensuing chaos seemed like a farce, and the two young children walked away with their bounty hunter dad.Then Ace was also about to leave, because the information he got about Blackbeard was false.As a result, he went to the west based on the bounty hunter's information. Before leaving, he gave Luffy a blank piece of paper and asked him to keep it with him.

After Ace left, everyone drove for another day. During this period, Luffy, Zoro and Chopper got separated once, but fortunately they all found them later.Everyone's safety is a blessing, Sora drank his saliva and looked at the fiery sunset.

They will soon arrive in Juba, and their trip to the desert will also come to an end...

The author has something to say:

Next, we will resume one update per week...

But what should I do if I miss Kawen...Fortunately, I have some saved manuscripts to last for a while...

(However, the Alabasta story has been written, and there is only the last chapter left)

Obviously, there are still 10+ chapters in the empty island part that have not been written, so why does Kawen have no motivation...
