Chapter 77 Luffy, you've been enhanced! Charge!
Without wasting words, Xi Yan immediately used chakra to condense two special water spheres.
Luffy blinked, not understanding why west Yan had created two water spheres, which looked only about the size of a fist.
"Stretch out your hand."
"oh."
Although he didn't know what Xiyan wanted to do, Luffy still obediently stretched out his hand.
Then, Luffy was shocked to discover that the two blobs of water had actually adhered to his hands!
As Luffy watched the water gradually envelop his hands, his eyes suddenly blazed with intense light.
"Wow...that's amazing!"
I shook my hands up and down and found that I couldn't shake the water off at all. Instead, it stuck firmly to my hands and didn't affect my movements.
"What is this, Xiyan?"
"That fat guy is a user of the Heat-Heat Fruit, capable of instantly turning iron into molten iron. That would require a temperature of at least 1500 degrees Celsius!" west Yan said. "And I suspect that's not even his highest temperature. Hitting him rashly would definitely result in burns."
"But with these two pools of water, it's different; they can help insulate you from most of the heat."
"Luffy, go fight without fear! Remember to use your fists!"
After west Yan finished speaking, he patted Luffy on the shoulder, as if to say, "You've been enhanced, hurry up and attack."
"Hahaha, you think you can defeat me with just these two puddles of water?" Achino scoffed. "I'm a user of the Heat-Heat Fruit, and my maximum temperature can reach ten thousand degrees."
"To defeat me, you'd need at least the ocean!"
Upon hearing the word "ocean," Alberu's body involuntarily trembled as she recalled the image of the man manipulating the seawater.
If the opponent really uses seawater, they could probably disable Dad's Devil Fruit ability in a single encounter.
"You'd better not talk nonsense," Nami said, squinting at Albel.
Arubel didn't speak, but simply lowered his head.
"Fatty, if you think it's that simple, feel free to give it a try," west Yan said calmly.
"Then let's go...: "
"Rubber Pistol!"
Without giving Achino a chance to continue his nonsense, Luffy threw a punch at him without holding back!
"bump!"
This time, Luffy's fist wasn't burned; instead, it landed squarely on Achino's stomach.
"Forehead!"
Achino, who was knocked backward by a punch, had a face full of pain. At the same time, he was very confused as to why his high temperature had not evaporated the water in his opponent's hand.
Just a moment ago, he raised the temperature to a level that could melt steel.
"Damn it, it's been so many years since I've been hit..."
Clutching his stomach, Achino looked at Xiyan with a pained expression and said, "Kid, what did you do?"
.
"I don't have the habit of explaining my abilities to the enemy."
"hateful....
Achino was furious; if his abilities were disabled, his combat power would plummet.
It can be said that his strength is entirely due to his Devil Fruit ability.
"Wow, this is amazing! I really can't feel any temperature anymore!" Luffy exclaimed excitedly, looking at his hands. "Is this what it feels like to have ninjutsu?!"
"That's awesome!!"
I never thought he would be able to experience ninjutsu one day. west Yan is really good to him.
"It's just two blobs of water, I refuse to believe I can't break through your defenses!" After saying that, Achino activated his power and quickly charged towards Luffy.
"Rubber Rocket Launcher!"
"I'm hiding!"
"boom!!"
Luffy slammed his fists into the ice, the immense force creating a large crater.
Achino himself used the power of the steam to quickly move to the side.
"feasible!"
Excitement gleamed in Achino's eyes. If he could get close to the other party, he could use the power of the fruit to evaporate him!
"west Yan, you're being unfair."
"That's right, we want ninjutsu too!"
Upon seeing west Yan return, Usopp and the others immediately said, "We also want to experience what it's like to manipulate ninjutsu!"
"This isn't Luffy controlling the ninjutsu; it's me maintaining it," west Yan said, shrugging. "You guys don't have chakra, so you really can't learn it."
If he could one day reach the Six Paths level, he might actually be able to share his chakra with them, but that's not possible now.
"What... So you were just teasing Luffy...?"
"Not really, at least he can use the power of water, right?"
"Xiyan, what exactly is the purpose of those two clumps of water?" Nami asked curiously.
"We can guarantee Luffy won't get burned," west Yan said. "This guy clearly isn't good at hand-to-hand combat. If we disable his Devil Fruit ability, he'll basically have no fighting power."
The two clumps of water wrapped around Luffy's fists were not ordinary water, but water filled with his chakra.
Even if some of it evaporates, it will quickly absorb water molecules from the air due to its chakra.
Make up for the lost portion.
With this power, Luffy could easily beat that guy without taking any damage.
Usopp looked at Achino, then nodded seriously and said, "Indeed."
He looks so fat, he doesn't seem like the type who's good at physical combat.
After glancing at Luffy, who was having a great time fighting, west Yan said, "Let Luffy handle the battle here. It's time to go find Zoro."
Nami gets a headache whenever Zoro is mentioned.
"How did this idiot manage to get here so quickly?"
"Hey, what can I do? This guy has no sense of direction." Sanji chuckled.
"You guys go ahead, we can't leave everyone here."
Franky remembered that the other party had a son-in-law who had married into the family; who knew if that person would launch a sneak attack?
Hearing Franky say this, the group also felt that it was indeed not feasible for everyone to leave. So, Xiyan, Nico Robin, Chopper, Usopp, and Merry took the little girl Lilu to find Zoro and get what they were supposed to get.
"Let's go."
Chopper transformed into his deer form, carried the two little girls on his back, and quickly followed Xiyan and the other two towards Achino's family.
"Um?"
Achino, who was being pulled along by Luffy, glanced at the group of people running past from the side and was momentarily stunned.
"Lilu..: "
He couldn't understand why his daughter would run home with the other person.
They didn't seem to be coerced; on the contrary, it seemed like they went with them voluntarily.
Oh, I see. It must be that Lilu was planning to use her special ability to control the plants and capture them!
Thinking of this, Achino grinned and said, "As expected of my daughter."
"bump!"
Just as he was distracted, Luffy's fist struck him in the face, sending him spinning wildly like a top as he hurtled towards a distant block of ice.
"boom!"
The moment they made contact, Achino smashed the ice to pieces, and it began to melt, rapidly producing a large amount of water vapor.
"You bastard, Straw Hat Boy, I'm angry!" Achino exclaimed, getting up. "Rubber, huh? I'm going to melt you completely!"
"Hmph, if you can do it, then give it a try!"
The two, who were staring at each other, quickly rushed towards one another.
"It's so...so cold..."
In the underground prison, Zoro was shivering, clutching his arms. Luckily, he'd had a bit too much to drink earlier.
Otherwise, I really don't know what to do.
"I wonder if they'll be able to find this place."
During the time he fell, he kept looking for a way out, but the place was barren and there was nothing to climb on. The only way to get up was to have someone above use ropes or ladders to lift him up.
Just then, Zoro faintly heard a familiar voice.
"It's right here. People who are caught are usually locked up here."
"That's right, I can definitely smell Zoro's scent."
"Zoro, are you there?!"
"Chopper!"
Zoro immediately showed a look of surprise and delight. He didn't expect this little guy to actually find this place. That's great!
"Hey, Chopper, I'm down there!"
"It's Zoro's voice!" Chopper exclaimed excitedly. "Quick, how do we open this thing?"
Lilu didn't say anything, but walked to the side and pressed a button.
Soon, the dungeon lid was opened, revealing the scene below.
Seeing that Zoro was not injured, the others breathed a sigh of relief.
"You rascal..."
Usopp was at a loss for words. Why did this guy manage to come all this way by himself?
Zoro, who had climbed up the ladder that Lilu had lowered, said with a smile, "We're finally saved."
"Zorro, why are you here?" Mary asked curiously.
"Of course, it's to find you guys," Zoro said. "I've been searching for you along the icebergs, but I haven't been able to find you anywhere."
"Seriously, there's a limit to getting lost."
Usopp: ? ? ?
"Hello!"
Usopp shoved his nose right into Zoro's face, opened his shark-like mouth, and roared, "It was you who got lost, you bastard!"
"How is that possible?"
"How is that impossible? We've been traveling through the Ice Sea Passage for ages, and we haven't found a trace of you at all!"
"That's because you're lost, of course you can't find me!"
Usopp: ...
Why is this guy so confident?
"Honestly, I'd believe Zoro would find One Piece someday," west Yan remarked.
"Well, it's not impossible."
Nico Robin smiled, completely agreeing with west Yan's point of view.
"Zoro is really... unexpectedly powerful," Merry said.
"I think he's just terrible with directions," Lilu said speechlessly.
Without the Silk Road, navigating the complex icy sea routes is no easy feat, let alone reaching their base camp.
But what about this swordsman?
It's a bit outrageous that he walked all the way from the iceberg to her house by himself.
"Who are you?" Zoro asked, glancing at Lilu.
"Me...?" Lilu sighed. "I'm just a miserable prisoner."
"captive?"
"I'll explain later," west Yan said. "Let's go, it's time to go to our next destination."
Although Zoro had some doubts, he still chose to trust Xiyan and left with him.
The group quickly left the dungeon and, guided by Lilu, arrived at a room filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.
"A garden built in this kind of environment?" Usopp exclaimed. "That's quite a grand gesture."
Keep in mind that this area is full of icebergs. In such an extremely harsh environment, plants don't have an easy time surviving.
"Feed?"
"Was that plant from the state just now?" Melly asked, pointing to a huge flower on a black plant.
Upon hearing this, Nico Robin and west Yan immediately bowed their heads to Lilu. It was obvious that this little brat had done something to cause such a change in the state.
Lilu pursed her lips, glanced at Mary, and finally sighed silently without making a move.
"Let's go, to the next room."
After arriving at the actual treasure room, Zoro understood what Xiyan and the others were planning to do. However, Zoro didn't see anything wrong with it. Since they were already planning to kill them, what was wrong with them taking some interest?
With the intention of taking Bailey without hesitation, Lilu said, "We've already given you the money, can you let us go?"
"Little one, I've already said, we servants have no interest in bullying children," west Yan said. "As long as you behave, we won't make things difficult for you."
Ultimately, the little girl was not in any danger, and she had even become good friends with Mary, so naturally she wouldn't kill her.
Lilu breathed a sigh of relief. Now that she had received a positive answer, it was likely that they wouldn't kill her.
"let's go."
"Damn it, Gino's pirate flag!"
Chopper suddenly remembered this: your pirate flag is inside this house, and he can easily take it with him now.
"Chopper, the spirit of pirates needs to be reclaimed by them themselves," Nico Robin said. "Otherwise, they will be seen as traitors, and you will be a disgrace to pirates."
Put yourself in their shoes; if their pirate flag were stolen, they would have to fight back for it themselves.
"Is that so...?"
Chopper thought about it for a moment, and Frank nodded, abandoning the idea.
Thinking about it carefully, Gino didn't actually ask them to help retrieve the pirate flag, so he decided not to meddle.
Suddenly, Chopper's nose twitched, and then he grinned, saying, "Gino, that guy...."
He actually came by himself? He really is a qualified pirate!
"boom!!"
Just then, a huge roar suddenly came from outside, as if something terrible had crashed into the ground, causing a massive shockwave!
"What's wrong?" Zoro asked. "Why are you suddenly so excited?"
"Maybe it's because of Luffy's fight with that guy."
"Quickly, go out and see Bing."
As the Straw Hat Pirates disappeared into the distance, Rilu suddenly called out, "Merry!!"
"What's wrong?"
"Will we ever meet again?"
Lilu's eyes welled up with tears; at that moment, she felt a strong sense of reluctance to part.
After all these years, this is the first time she has met a friend who is about her age. She said she survived because of you.
But now they have to part ways. She really misses Mary.
Mary stopped, turned to Lilu, and gave her a big smile, saying, "Lilu, please don't be sad!"
"Maybe we'll meet again on the high seas someday in the future."
"On the high seas...?"
"That's right!"
Although they are enemies, she gets along very well with Lilu, so she genuinely hopes to see her again someday.
Lilu suddenly laughed, a very relaxed laugh.
Yes, since we've already become friends, there's no need to settle this matter. We'll meet again sooner or later.
Although they might fight again after meeting, that doesn't affect her friendship with Mary, does it?
"I'll be looking forward to that day!"
"lead!"
After watching Mary leave, Lilu murmured, "Goodbye, my friend."
She glanced back at the window, where the view was already starting to blur due to the steam.
But Lilo knew that her father was fighting out there.
"Dad, please be safe and sound."
