Chapter 17
As the words fell.
In an instant.
The atmosphere suddenly froze.
Zoro was stunned for a moment, then held the three knives at his waist with both hands, Luffy looked puzzled, Nami and Usopp were stunned, and Sanji maintained a smoking posture.
Only Li Luozhi was lying lazily on the chair on the second floor, with an intriguing smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Who is this old man?"
Luffy was the first to break the silence, tilting his head and asking curiously.
Usopp on the side was just about to open his mouth to reveal the true identity of Kulokas, when suddenly, a piercing shrill laugh came from the mouth of Miss Wednesday, that is, Neferutari Vivi: "Ahahahaha......" Then, a cold voice came out: "Even if you say so, we can't go back
!" "That's right, it's our mission to kill this whale!"
Mr.9 stood up with a gun in both hands, and his expression was unruly, " Today, you don't want to hinder our whaling!
" After speaking
, the two of them put their guns on their shoulders, and the pitch-black muzzle was aimed at Rab, Mr.9 sneered: "Look at me opening a hole in its stomach, chat......tering"
With a roar, the muzzles of the two cannon barrels spewed sparks, and two black cannonballs quickly crossed the void, and at this time, Kulokas, who was standing on the stairs, saw it, his face sank, and he immediately pulled out his legs and rushed to the cannonball, without the slightest hesitation, and used his body to resist.
There was a boom and an explosion.
The wounded Kulokas fell from mid-air towards the stomach sea like a kite with a broken string.
"This old man blocked the cannonball with his body?"
"Could it be that he is protecting
this whale?" Looking at Neferutari Vivi again, he smiled wickedly: "Hahahaha, don't make senseless resistance, this whale will become food for our town, and you, too, will be buried here!"
Luffy suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, wearing a straw hat with his head bowed, and two long arms stretched out.
"Bang!"
Neferutari Vivi and Mr. 9, who were originally triumphant, collided their heads in an instant, and both fell and fainted after a burst of gold stars.
"I don't know why, I just want to beat them up!"
Luffy said as he felt Zoro's gaze, scratching his head.
"Whoa!" Suddenly
, a carp from Kulocas, who had fallen into the sea of stomach, thrust onto his iron boat, took off his jacket and wrung it out, and said lightly, "Thank you a few of you
!" "The old man is polite!"
The Merry approached, Li Luozhi was still lying on the second floor, and Luffy and the others were on the iron boat.
"Why did they kill this whale?" asked
Nami, looking confused.
"They are the villains of the nearby town, and their goal is Rab's meat, because Rab is the largest whale in the world, and if he kills him, it will be enough food for two or three years in their town!"
"Then this whale is Rab, why did he hit the Red Earth Continent with his head?"
Nami asked again.
As soon as Kulokas heard this, he immediately became serious, his eyes flashed with a strange brilliance, and his tone was full of emotion: "Because Rab is waiting for a group of pirates!"
"Pirates?"
As soon as these words came out, several people showed puzzled and curious expressions.
And then.
Kurokas told Rab's story.
It was a touching heartfelt sound, and Nami and Usopp burst into tears, and when they came out of Rab's stomach under the guidance of Kulokas, they looked at Rab again with scars on his head, and felt really unworthy for him.
"It's been so long, maybe those pirates are dead
!" "No matter how long you wait, they won't come back, I remember the words of fifty years ago, it was even more chaotic than now, there were unknown seas everywhere, there were too many uncertain factors
!" "Hey, why are you saying these things that don't give people room to dream, maybe they can come back, what a touching story, always believing in the whales agreed by their companions!"
Usopp, what are you kidding, it was fifty years ago, and if he had returned, he would have come back a long time ago, but it's a pity that Rab!"
While Nami and Usopp were arguing fiercely.
Li Luozhi, who was staying on the second floor of the Merry, his deep eyes fell on Luffy, who was silent, and the next second, he saw that the other party suddenly rioted, jumped back to the ship, held the mast with both hands, gritted his teeth and tried his best.
"Hey, Luffy, what are you doing?" his
strange behavior immediately attracted several people.
"Click!"
suddenly there was a crisp sound.
Luffy broke the mast off at the waist, and then, ignoring the crowd, he squatted down with the broken mast, bent his knees, and jumped on Rab with a whoosh.
"Boom
, boom, boom...", he quickly ran towards Rab's head.
"Luffy, what the hell is he going to do?" asked
Usopp in a puzzled exit.
Li Luozhi, who understood the beginning and end of the plot, smiled lightly and said mysteriously: "If you look at it, it may be clear!"
Luffy came to the top of Rab's head, raised the mast with both hands, and aimed the broken part at the scar.
The next moment.
In the shocked gaze of several people.
"Bang!"
the mast plunged deep into Rab's head.
At the moment of "......",
Rab's pupils were bloodshot, and then, he opened his mouth to let out a painful wail, shaking the world and frightening the people present.
The calm waters swelled under the churning of Rab's massive body.
Rab, who was furious, slammed directly into Luffy.
"Boom!"
lifted the sea water several meters high and slapped the shore hard.
"What a fool!"
Luffy laughed and hurriedly jumped up, dodged Rab's attack, and just hit the rubber with a punch as soon as he landed, but his attack was harmless to Rab, but the shock that rebounded sent Luffy flying out, and Luffy, who fell to the ground heavily, quickly got up, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and launched a new round of attacks again.
In this way, one person and one whale frequently fight.
Each has its own losses.
Everyone was confused and didn't understand what Luffy was trying to do.
Suddenly, at this time.
Luffy retreated to the Red Earth Continent again, looking at Rab who was about to rush over angrily, he quickly stretched out his hand, "Don't fight!" Then, he stood up, picked up the straw hat that fell on the ground and put it on his head, and then, with a smile on his face: "I'm strong, it's not so easy to win against me, we haven't decided the winner yet, let's continue in the future!"
Both Li Luozhi and Kulokas smiled meaningfully.
Nami was stunned for a moment, then reacted and smiled.
Sanji took a cigarette in his mouth and smiled lightly.
Only Zoro and Usopp looked at each other, their brains turning slowly, and for a while they couldn't figure out what the meaning of Luffy's actions
was.
Luffy has a new pact with Rab.
Rab, who had lost hope, ushered in the dawn of a new life again, looking up to the sky and howling, but this time it was joy.
