Chapter 209: Misfortune and Luck
"Woo woo, where is everyone???"
Chopper hid in the grass on the shore, looking at the navy warships cruising on the water not far away, and the blue-nosed reindeer was about to cry in fright.
In fact, in terms of guts, the little reindeer is actually on par with a certain long nose in some situations, especially in this dark and strange environment full of dangers, Chopper is even more frightened and has no master, and he doesn't know what to do at all.
(Luffy...... Shylock...... No! I've got to go to everyone!)
Thinking of this, Chopper immediately began to play to his greatest strengths, he quietly poked his head out, sniffed hard, and tried to find his companions through the smell.
Unfortunately, the air of this naval fortress was mixed with all kinds of smells, especially the pungent smell that smelled very peculiar and pungent. Under the mask of these smells, the little reindeer can simply spread the smell of their companions.
(Damn, what the hell is that strange smell, it smells like ...... It's like ...... Petroleum ???)
Shaking his head, Chopper stopped worrying about where the smell of oil in the Navy Fortress came from, he carefully shrunk his body into the grass, and then took a deep breath and began to think about the next countermeasures.
Rustle, rustle-
A strange movement suddenly came from the grass behind Chopper, although the sound was very subtle, but at this time in the ears of the little reindeer was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day!
(What...... What is it??!! )
Chopper almost subconsciously turned into a reindeer form and ran away, but when he saw the small figure emerging from the grass, he was stunned.
It was a cute kitten about the size of two palms, with a golden pendant in the shape of a crescent moon hanging from its collar around its neck, and its black and shiny coat looked like it had been pampered in someone else's home.
The most striking thing is the eyes of this little black cat, a pair of burgundy cat eyes, glittering in the dark night, full of a bewitching beauty that cannot be described in words.
(What a beautiful pair of eyes...... )
Chopper had seen a lot of cats during his time in Alabastan, but this was the first time he had seen a kitten with such a unique and beautiful pupil.
The kitten didn't seem to expect to come across such a mysterious creature with two legs and two antlers in such a place, and it was also standing in place.
For a while, the deer and the cat stared at each other silently, and the atmosphere was quite weird.
Long......
"Meow?" (Tanuki?)
"It's a reindeer!I'm a reindeer!look!Horned!" Chopper, who has the cat's language translation skill MAX, immediately exploded, and pointed to his antlers and retorted loudly at the little black cat, completely leaving his fear behind him.
"Meow, meow~~~~" (reindeer, you look so strange~~~~~~)
Ignoring the blue-nosed reindeer, whose face was getting more and more ugly, the little black cat licked the fluff on the back of its front paws.
"Meow?~~~~~~~~"
"Well, you ask me where the commander's office is?"
Chopper was stunned for a moment, then he waved his little hooves with an embarrassed face, and said, "That, in fact, I just came here, and I am not familiar with the terrain here." ”
"Meow ......"
Hearing this, the cat's burgundy cat's eyes narrowed slightly, and he gave Chopper an extremely contemptuous look, and then the little thing twisted his head and walked slowly into the distance with cat steps, looking cold.
(I...... I was actually despised by a cat???)
Looking at the back of the black cat gradually moving away, the little reindeer looked confused, and when the black cat was about to disappear into the night, Chopper immediately came back to his senses.
"Alas, wait, you wait first......"
After hesitating for a moment, Chopper, who didn't know where he should go, gritted his teeth, and then quickly chased after the little black cat in the direction where it left.
…………
"Fortunately, it can also be used normally in Qinghai Weiba. ”
After driving Weiba to a place that he thought was very hidden, the orange-haired navigator wiped the fine sweat from his forehead and said with a long sigh of relief: "Hide Weiba here, and you shouldn't be discovered by the navy." ”
However, it was when Nami let her guard down the most.
"So you're here. A magnetic Kiyotsu male voice rang out abruptly from behind Nami. !!!
Nami's heart almost skipped a beat at the sound, and she hurriedly looked back, and when she saw the familiar figure with glasses, Nami's tense nerves instantly relaxed.
"Whew~~~~ It's you, Sherlock, you haunt me so much. ”
patted his plump chest with a frightened face, the little thief cat calmed down, looked at a certain man with glasses whose expression was as calm and calm as usual, and wondered: "How did you find me?"
The sorcerer gently pushed his glasses and shook his head, "I only sensed you just now, and I don't know about the others. ”
Combined with the telescope that can transmit images, Sherlock is like a living radar that can take images from all of them.
However, due to his domineering appearance and domineering at the level of a half-asser, without taking the forbidden drug due to Sanmona's overdraft, the sorcerer's perception range is only 200 meters away, which is completely incomparable to Aisha and a certain former Thor who is learning dairy farming techniques.
"That's right...... But when I meet you, my personal safety is at least guaranteed, hehe. ”
The orange-haired navigator grinned, and as she looked around at the huge, heavily guarded naval fortress, Nami immediately realized how precarious the situation was for herself and the others, and the smile on her face faded.
"What a misfortune! Why are we so unlucky, and we have fallen into a naval fort!"
Nami cried with a sad face, looking loveless:
"And Luffy, that idiot! It's not what he was thinking at the time, if he hadn't run on the octopus hot air balloon and jumping around, how could we have been forced to land in such a place???"
"I'm so angry, how did I end up with such a captain who loves pit people??? if I can see him later, I have to teach him a good lesson!"
……
……
Sherlock is indeed a perfect confidant, and you can't help but express your inner thoughts around him. And Nami, after pouring bitter water on the sorcerer, gradually regained her calmness.
"Whew~~~ It feels so much better to say it, okay, can you tell me what we're going to do next?" Sherlock?"
After speaking, the orange-haired navigator looked at the military advisor of the Straw Hats with a look of hope.
"What should I do?"
Sherlock didn't rush to answer, he first put Nami's majesty into the mirror space, and then the man with glasses turned his head to stare into the eyes of the little thief cat, and smiled slightly.
"First of all, I'm going to correct one of your wrong opinions, Nami. ”
Gently pushing his glasses, Sherlock looked around, the entire naval fortress was like a sleeping beast in the night, and the depressed atmosphere did not even dare to breathe.
"We stumbled into this naval fort, and while it may seem unfortunate, it was actually a very [lucky] thing. ”
"Hah???? lucky?Sherlock, you're not kidding, what's so lucky?" Nami looked confused.
"After all, this isn't a place where we can just go in if we want to. ”
The corners of his mouth were elegantly upturned slightly, and the expression on Sherlock's face was flat mixed with three points of mystery. He didn't explain too much, but turned around very simply, and walked slowly in the direction of the entrance to the fortress.
“……”
Miss Navigator suddenly felt that she could not keep up with the rhythm of the sorcerer's thoughts, just as she could not understand what her second cargo captain had been thinking all day.
It's just that the difference between the two is that his intelligence level is too high-end, so that ordinary people can't reach it.
The other is that the brain circuits are too strange, and ordinary people can't fall to the same level as him...... (To be continued.) )
