Chapter 13
"Are we there yet?"
Luffy rubbed his face in confusion, then buried his head in the sea water and snored casually.
This is what Luffy has been doing deliberately recently.
He wants to see if he can overcome the restraint of the sea water on him by gradually adapting.
But for now, the effect is not very ideal.
After pulling his head out of the sea with difficulty, he felt a little weak all over.
"What is this? Is this the restraint of the world's laws?"
Luffy muttered.
At this moment, Zoro's voice came from the front:
"Hey Luffy! Something seems to be wrong."
Then Nami's voice came from the bow:
"Ah! Luffy, a pirate group is attacking this village!"
Luffy was stunned for a moment.
Pirate group?
Attacking the village?
What's going on?
Luffy walked to the bow and saw the pirate ship. He was stunned for a moment and then understood:
"This is...Black Cat Pirates?"
"Luffy, you know them too?" Zoro looked at Luffy in surprise.
Nami also turned her head.
Luffy held his straw hat with his left hand, looking at the excited pirates who had just landed, and said casually:
"Well, I just heard some things."
"But weren't these members of the Black Cat Pirates wiped out by Colonel Monka three years ago?"
Zoro learned a lot about pirate groups when he was a pirate hunter these years.
Now seeing the pirate group that was once wiped out appear in front of him again, he was obviously surprised.
Luffy showed a meaningful smile and said:
"You will know when you try it yourself later.
By the way, haven't you been contemplating shaving these past two days?
Do you have any clues now?"
Zoro shook his head helplessly and said:
"Although there are some clues, but without long-term practice, it is still impossible to use them all at once"
"That's perfect, we'll stay in this village for a while, we're not in a hurry anyway, so we'll leave some time for you to practice." Luffy shrugged and smiled.
"Is this okay? Will it delay the trip?" Zoro looked at Luffy in surprise.
Luffy smiled and said:
"It's just a few days. I'll help you.
Besides, I have a new move that I need to practice."
Zoro nodded thoughtfully.
Nami stared at the two chatting in amazement, then pointed to the shore and said:
"There's a big pirate ship over there, why are you two still chatting here?!"
Luffy turned to look at Nami in surprise:
"What if we don't talk about it?
Do you want us to go up and fight this pirate group?
Although I think I'm a good person, I'm a pirate after all.
"
Nami was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and thought to herself, yes, why do I always have such thoughts?
When my own life is not guaranteed, I really can't ask others for it.
What's more, Luffy is the captain.
If I continue like this again and again, even if Luffy indulges me, I'm afraid Zoro will not allow it.
She has stolen from so many pirates over the years and knows one thing very well, the captain's majesty is inviolable!
Just when she thought of this, she heard Luffy's laughter:
"Of course, if you really want me to save the people in this village, it's not impossible.
You know I'm a rubber who ate the emotion fruit......Well..."
Luffy had just said half of his words when he stared at Nami with wide eyes and rushed over to cover his mouth.
At the same time, Zoro's voice came with a bit of solemnity:
"Hey Luffy, there are a few kids looking for death, should we......Fuck! You two are fucking gods and demons! Can you please pay attention to the situation, you bastards!"
Zoro was halfway through his words when he turned around and saw Luffy and Nami biting each other, which made him burst out with swear words.
Bang!
Nami blushed and pushed Luffy to the bow, pointing to the children who were being beaten on the slope on the shore and said anxiously:
"Are you invincible now? Come on, save them."
Luffy was stunned for a moment, turned his head and saw that a fight had already started on the slope.
Many pirates were shot down by iron balls, and then rolled down the oil-covered road on the slope.
But there are quite a few people in the Black Cat Pirates, and there is obviously only one person on the opposite side who is capable of fighting.
In comparison, there was immediately a situation of missing people.
Immediately, several pirates took advantage of the gap to rush through the oil-covered road in the middle and lower parts of the slope, and as soon as they came up, they saw the three little devils at the top of the slope.
These pirates are real pirates, and they don’t care whether the other party is a child or not, they just go up and kick them a few times. He pulled out his knife and tried to force the"sniper" out.
However, he didn't need to force him at all, as he saw a long-nosed boy jumping down from the tree and knocking the pirate down with eighty hits with a big hammer.
But many pirates rushed up afterwards, and the long-nosed boy was knocked to the ground in an instant.
But the boy was tough after all, and he didn't back down even when facing the siege of several pirates, and he kept hammering with the big hammer.
But he was also stabbed several times and was bleeding!
Just when the boy and the three children were in despair, they heard a voice coming from the bottom of the slope.
"rubber————Pistol!!!"
Bang!!!
Immediately, under the shocked gaze of the three little ghosts and the boy, an arm that stretched out nearly a hundred meters knocked down several pirates with one punch.
Bang!
At the same time, the fist that knocked down the pirates directly grabbed the big tree next to it, and then the arm quickly retracted, and a boy wearing a straw hat, a red vest and blue shorts flew up from the bottom of the slope! Whoosh!————
Bang!
Seeing this boy fall in front of him in such an incredible way, the long-nosed boy's eyes were full of shock and disbelief.
Luffy looked at the long-nosed boy who was somewhat unrecognizable, and he had an idea in his mind. It must be Usopp. Although Usopp didn't know Luffy, he knew from the scene just now that this was not a skill that ordinary people could have.
In addition to the current situation, Usopp's face, which was bruised and swollen, immediately squeezed out a flattering smile and said:
"My lord!
You can call me Captain Usopp. I have a treasure worth 50 million berries. As long as you help me defeat these pirates, I will tell you the location of the treasure!
How about it? I, Captain Usopp, never lie or cheat!"
In order to show the credibility of his words, Usopp clenched his fists and raised his thumbs to himself, looking very decent.
"No problem."
Luffy raised his hand and pressed his straw hat. There was a hint of smile in his eyes under the shadow of the straw hat, but his tone was cold:
"However, if you lie to me, you will pay with your life!"
Gudong——
Usopp swallowed his saliva and his voice trembled a little. He gritted his teeth and said:
"without...No problem! I, I, I, Captain Usopp, but I'm known as...Known as an honest and reliable young man!"
Luffy stretched out his hand and looked at Usopp:
"That...Deal?"
Pah!
"become...Deal!"
The three little kids on the side were all staring at him with nosebleeds, wondering if Captain Usopp really wanted to die?
Just as the three of them were staring at Luffy, Luffy suddenly shook his head with a bad taste, turned his head and glared at the three kids and said:
"Hey! You three little brats, what are you looking at?"
"ah!!!"
"Run!!!"
"The long-armed monster wants to eat people!!!"
The three children were all frightened and immediately turned around and ran towards the village.
Usopp's face changed and he was about to stop them, but his shoulder was grabbed by a hand:
"Hey, you can't leave."
Usopp said stiffly:
"No, that's not the case. I just want them not to tell the villagers about what happened here......."
"Then what?"
Luffy interrupted him directly:
"Don't tell the villagers, so that they still have no vigilance?
Wait until the next time the pirates come, let them be killed?
Or be slaughtered peacefully in their dreams?"
Uh————
Usopp choked and was speechless for a moment. He seemed to have thought of some terrible consequences. He had been beaten badly and his legs went limp and he fell to the ground.
"Hello!!"
"You little bastard, don't ignore me!"
"Die!!!"
The subsequent members of the Black Cat Pirates saw that Luffy was surrounded by members of their Black Cat Pirates, and saw that the Straw Hat Boy ignored them and chatted with them, which immediately made these pirates furious.————
Immediately, these people drew their swords at the same time and slashed at Luffy.
Usopp, who was lying on the ground, was startled and pointed at the pirates behind Luffy who jumped up and slashed at him and said in fear:
""Watch out behind me!!!"
Luffy just smiled and didn't even turn his head. He just swung his right fist backwards.
Then, in the shocked eyes of Usopp and the pirates, they saw the straw hat boy's arm swung back a few meters, and the whole arm bent into a strange arc and directly swept the people in the air.
Bang bang bang————
"Ahhhh————"
Then, these pirates were like being hit by some terrifying sea king. Five or six pirates flew dozens of meters away, smashed several trees, and fell into the forest without a sound.
Seeing this scene, Usopp swallowed his saliva frantically in fear, and said in a trembling voice:
"you...Who are you?..."
Luffy didn't answer him, but swung his hands towards the distant sea.
Then, under the shocked gaze of Usopp and dozens of members of the Black Cat Pirates, they saw the straw hat boy's hands directly cross nearly a hundred meters and grab a small sailboat on the shore.
There were a man and a woman on the sailboat at this time.
Nami and Zoro on the boat had a bad feeling when they saw Luffy's hands grabbing the boat, and they felt even worse after hearing Luffy's voice.
"Hey , Nami, Zoro, hold on tight."
After yelling, Luffy grinned, swung his arms violently, and directly pulled the small sailboat away from the coast.
————
The small sailboat flew nearly a hundred meters in the air before crashing into several large trees behind Luffy.
————
Bang!!!
After being cushioned by several large trees, the boat landed safely on the ground, splashing a cloud of dust.
"Hey Luffy, you bastard, I'm going to kill you sooner or later!"
""Damn Luffy!!!"
Zoro and Nami's angry shouts came from the smoke.
Usopp was lying flat now.
He didn't want to move.
He felt that he had died early after lying to such a monster.
Anyway, it was worth it to exchange his life for the lives of the whole village.
You can do whatever you want with the rest.
Tired, destroy it!
""Hey, Nami, Zoro, are you all right?"
Luffy greeted them warmly when he saw them coming out of the smoke. Just as they were about to start cursing, they saw Usopp, with a bruised face and many knife wounds on his body, lying on the ground with his hands folded, looking like he was waiting to die.
"Luffy, who is this guy?"
Zoro kicked Usopp's head in confusion:
"Is he dead?"
"You are the one who will die, bastard! I am Captain Usopp!"
Usopp suddenly jumped up, roared at Zoro and then fell down again.
"Oh, him, a hostage."
Luffy turned to look at Nami and said:
"Nami, please bandage him up, he still owes us 50 million Baileys."
Nami curled her lips when she heard the first sentence, and immediately showed a professional fake smile when she heard the second sentence, and clasped her hands together:
"Don't worry, I won't let him die! Mr. Bailey"
"I told you my name is Captain Usopp!"
"Okay, five thousand, Mr. Bailey."
"......"
While they were talking, the Black Cat Pirates had already climbed up the oil-covered slope and were heading towards them with murderous intent.
Luffy grabbed Usopp's feet and pulled him to the shade of a tree to let Nami bandage him.
Then he looked at Zoro and made a fist-clenching gesture:
"Zoro, I'll leave those people to you.
Actual combat is always the best training!
Come on!"
Zoro looked at Luffy sitting under the shade of a tree, chewing a big piece of meat in one hand and holding juice in the other hand, and cursed in his heart.
I think you just want to be lazy, you bastard!
————
In Xiluobu Village, three little boys were running towards the village with blood all over their faces, shouting in fear:
"Oh no!
Mom, Dad, uncles, and aunts!
Pirates are coming!!!"
Hearing the voices of the three children, the villagers who were waiting to play tricks on Usopp were stunned for a moment. They wondered why the people were different today.
They subconsciously opened the door with brooms, mops and other weapons, but saw three children with a lot of blood and scratches on their faces and bodies running towards the village.
The uncle closest to them stared with his eyes wide open and said in shock:
"Onion, Green Pepper, and Radish, what happened to you three? Why are you covered in blood?"
The villagers who didn't care at first heard this and ran out of the house.
Seeing the miserable appearance of the three children, all the villagers were immediately angry.
"Who hit you?���Tell your uncle! Your uncle will definitely help you!"
"Damn it! How dare you touch our people from Xiluobu Village!"
"Can't forgive them!"
"Is it that brat Usopp?!"
The three children were just crying at first, but when they heard Usopp's body shaking violently, Onionhead cried and yelled:
"Mom, Dad, Uncles, and Uncles!
The pirates are really here!
There are so many of them, all carrying knives!
Usopp is fighting the pirates alone for the safety of the village!!!
If everyone doesn’t go, Usopp will be beaten to death!!!
We, we are deserters!
Woohoo!—————"
As Onionhead cried out, the entire village street suddenly fell into an eerie silence.————
But after a few seconds of silence, the street suddenly became noisy!
Immediately, regardless of gender, age or status, they all rushed into their homes, took out various weapons and shields, and with red eyes and boundless anger, they turned into a stream of people and rushed towards the beach!
