May 20, 1520 in the Lunar Calendar. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info East China Sea, Xirob Village, early morning.

The pale yellow shimmer of the moonlight radiated a soft glow, and sprinkled onto the earth under the moon.

Usopp straightened his waist, which had been bent for so long that it was a little sore, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Eyes watched the slope that he had carefully prepared for the upcoming Black Cat Pirates, sprinkled with a layer of smooth liquid oil, and happily hummed an unknown tune.

"Hmph, such a slippery slope with no focus is enough for those pirates to drink a pot! This ramp is the only way to enter the village from the seaside, and when the pirates arrive, a few of us will just stand here and calmly throw some rolling stones or something, big logs or something. ”

"Heh......" Ash yawned with a tired face, and the snowflakes that landed in his ice-blue eyes became smaller. Ash forced himself to lift a trace of his spirits, staring at the oil channel reflecting the moonlight. "Usopp, your measure looks pretty good!"

"That's nature, I'm known as the smartest wise man in the village of Sirob!" Usopp proudly held his head high and folded his hands in front of him. It's rare to be praised by a beautiful girl, and his unique long nose seems to have become a little longer.

"I'm absolutely confident in my own cleverness and shooting!"

"Well, it's a good idea!" Zoro looked at the slopes covered in oil, and thought that if he fell underneath, he would feel a little tricky.

"We have to be careful ourselves, if we accidentally slide, it's no joke." Nami twisted the remaining oil stains on the ground with her white fingers, and the feedback between her fingers was undoubtedly very slippery.

"This ramp looks interesting, Usopp is so sorry you can figure it out." Luffy grinned and gave Usopp a thumbs up, then cautiously leaned out and stepped on the oil duct to test the lubricity of the oil duct.

Outcome......

"Huh?" fully explains what it means to be a stupid cargo captain who will not die if he doesn't die, although he has already prepared in advance in his heart, Luffy's whole person still slides down the ramp uncontrollably. Moreover, Luffy was lucky to be elected the "Best Teammate" of the year.

"Zoro!" Luffy screamed loudly, suddenly stretching out his arm and grabbing Zoro's calf in a stunned state.

"Hell, you bastard, let me go!" Caught off guard, Zoro didn't have time to react at all and was pulled into the oil tunnel by Luffy of the pit man.

Almost at the same time, a giant claw of ice composed of pure ice exuding white cold air quickly stretched out in the direction of the two people who fell, and narrowly grabbed Sauron, who had slipped into the oil tunnel with most of his body in hand.

"You two guys...... What are you doing ......? Ash's tired voice rang out lazily.

"He... How could his hand stretch out? And she... She can really control the ice creation freely? Usopp stared at Luffy and Ash in surprise, "You... Are you still not human? ”

"I'm a rubber man who ate a rubber fruit!" Luffy, who had just been pulled up from under the ramp, grinned and stretched his face long with his hands.

"I ate the Ice and Snow Goddess Fruit of the Human Fruit Phantom Beast Department, as for the elemental creation you mentioned, it's not so casual, it takes a lot of practice to get it." Ash briefly compared his abilities and then pointed to his unusual eyes. "And these eyes, which are different from ordinary people, look like snowflakes are falling all the time, and I guess they are also one of the fruit abilities that have recently awakened."

"That's amazing!" Usopp's eyes flashed in the shape of a star.

"Huh...... It's all good. Because of the ability of the fruit, Ash, whose head began to ache faintly again, looked around, found a clean position, and lay down. My head hurts, so I'll get some sleep first. If the pirates come, wake me up. ”

"Just sleeping here?"

"I'm a kid who grew up in the mountains, how can I be so particular about ......"

Sauron also looked tired, looked around for a while, and then found a tree to sit with his back against the trunk, "I'll sleep for a while." ”

"In that case, let's take a rest. But don't even sleep to death, I'll just watch here. Usopp consciously took on the task of "sentinel".

"Then please, Usopp." X4

… The dividing line of the passage of time...

At dawn, the place below the sea level that connects with the edge of the sky begins to glow with a faint white light. A little red and warm sunlight shone on the faces of the sleeping people. Ash was lying on the flat grass, his calm sleeping face frowning slightly, and he looked a little uncomfortable.

Beside Ash, Nami, who was asleep, snuggled up to Ash's shoulder, and woke up with a hand on Ash's waist.

"You two seem to have a good relationship! Is it a girlfriend? Usopp, who hadn't slept all night, asked Nami with a pair of jet-black panda eyes.

"Not really! Why do you ask? Nami felt a little dazed. I thought to myself, do Ash and I really look good?

"Because, after you fell asleep last night. Naturally, he approached Ash and hugged her. ”

"Don't peek at other people's sleep when you're fine! Bastard! Nami bared her teeth and put on a vicious look, and rewarded Usopp with a slap. Haven't the pirates come yet? ”

Usopp pressed the lump on the top of his head and secretly cried out in pain, "Not here yet." But it's really strange, it's already starting to dawn, why haven't they arrived yet? Could it be like you, sleeping too comfortably and choosing to be late for a while? ”

And is this possible? Obviously impossible!

It didn't take long for a slight roar from the other side of the island to this side of the island that suddenly woke Luffy and Zoro and caught Usopp's attention. That is, they are clearly in the wrong place. The direction of the pirates' attack is on the other side of the island, the north.

"Because I saw Captain Chloe and the hypnotist meeting on this side of the coast, I thought the pirates would land from here. Damn it!! Careless! Usopp opened his mouth with annoyance on his face, and his anxious situation was already beginning to be disorganized.

Luffy grabbed Usopp's shoulder, "There's no time to dwell on this if you get it wrong, if you drag it out like this, those pirates will really have to enter the village!" Tell me how to get to the other side? ”

"It's only three minutes north from here. The terrain there is almost exactly the same as here, and it's still too late to stop them on the ramp! ”

"I'll be there in 20 seconds!" Luffy, who finished speaking, ran away in an instant.

At this time, Nami found that Ash had not woken up yet. Nami screamed a few times and touched Ash's forehead with her hand, only to find that Ash's forehead was a little hot.

"Do you have a fever? Is there any medicine for Usopp? Hey? Nami looked at where Usopp had been standing a moment ago, and there was no longer a long nose there. Ah, not good! My treasure is still on the boat over there, but Ash ......."

"Forget it, let's let Ash rest for a while!"
