The inner hall of the Alabastan Rain Banquet Casino.

Mr.0 had a gloomy face: "The battle plan is scheduled for seven o'clock in two days, is everything ready?" ”

Ms. All Sunday: "Everything is ready, hundreds of 'billions of elders' have gathered in Rape Flower. ”

"I called Mr. 2 as well, and it seems that he didn't catch Mr. 3."

"The senior agents meet at the Spider Cafe at eight o'clock tonight..."

Mr.0 sat on the couch: "Oh? Very good..."

"It's past five o'clock now..."

Luffy Chenqi and his party finally arrived in the next city.

Chen Qi put his hand on his eyebrows, and as far as the eye could see, it was a desert with some houses standing alone.

Luffy and Tatsuki are in exactly the same posture: "Wow, it's finally time to Uba." ”

Usopp: "It's Joba! ”

"No, it's not Jobab yet." Vivi said, pulling out a map of Alabastan, "We've just crossed the Santa Dora River, we're upstream, and this is the Eruma Oasis. ”

Chen Qi looked puzzled: "Oasis? Where is the oasis here? ”

Wei Wei had a complicated look: "Now it's not..."

As he was talking, he saw several cute animals with turtle shells on their backs appear in front of everyone.

Usopp walked over curiously, but Wei Wei stopped loudly: "That's a kung fu manatee!" Usopp, don't go over! ”

Sure enough, without saying a word, the kung fu manatee beat Usopp's nose and face were swollen without saying a word, and he lay directly on the ground.

Zoro: "I was knocked down by it. ”

Nami pointed to the other side and Luffy knocked a kung fu manatee to the ground: "There is a battle there." ”

Wei Wei yelled: "It's even worse to win it!" When it loses, it automatically worships the winner, which is their rule. ”

While saying that, the kung fu manatee that was knocked down by Luffy just now really bowed to Luffy.

Zoro: "It's a warrior." ”

"Okay, here's the pose!" Luffy waved his fist and really taught it one by one.

At this time, the kung fu manatees came out one after another, and at one time there were nearly a hundred of them, and they all began to practice boxing with Luffy.

Weiwei's head grew bigger, her teeth sharpened, and she yelled, "There are more and more apprentices?!! ”

Before leaving, the kung fu manatees were still reluctant, and Luffy said that he wanted to take them all with him, but of course everyone resolutely disagreed.

So, they were given some food and moved on.

Because it was the middle of the desert, everyone was getting hotter and hotter as they walked, especially Luffy, who stuck out his tongue and gasped. (Eraser is sensitive to heat)

The most uncomfortable thing was Chopper, who was also so hot that he could barely walk with his tongue out, and Chenqi and Zoro made a small bamboo raft and dragged him on it. (Animals are afraid of heat and cold)

Chopper was lying on the raft and looked very uncomfortable, and Usopp was still saying cool words on the side: "Whoever made you grow fluffy, take off that fur." ”

Chopper instantly turned into a human form and stood in front of Usopp: "Don't underestimate the reindeer!" You bastard! ”

Usopp's mouthed boss: "Wow! Monsters! ”

Chen Qi: "Hey, Chopper, don't get big all of a sudden, or I won't drag you down." ”

Luffy was hot and thirsty, so he took out a bucket of water, inserted a large straw into it, and began to drink. Usopp and Sanji went up and wedged Luffy in the head with one punch: "You drank too much in one gulp!" ”

This time, Luffy squirted out all the water in his mouth.

"Your mouthful is the average man's twelve! Give me a sip too! ”

"Hey, didn't you drink it just now? Give me a sip too! ”

Luffy was also "angry": "What are you two bastards doing!" I drank it all and squirted it out! ”

"What did you kid say?!"

So the three of them wrestled together like three children.

Wei Wei shouted: "Don't fight, it's a waste of physical strength!" ”

After walking for a while, Luffy stuck out his tongue: "Sanji, let's start eating." ”

Sanji: "No, we have to wait for Weiwei's permission." ”

Usopp leaned on a tree trunk with a weak expression: "Vivi, let's eat, I can't walk anymore..."

"But we're only a third of the way to Joba."

Luffy pouted, "How stupid, haven't you heard that famous saying?" 'When you're hungry, you have to eat'. ”

Vivi: "Alright, let's take a break when we get to the rocks." ”

"Pile of stones... Pile of stones..."

Walking in the desert can be quite uncomfortable, the hot and dry weather can make you dehydrated at any time, and it is easy to collapse if you don't replenish your food in time. Chen Qi couldn't stand it a little.

Everyone was hot and tired, but they also had a lot of luggage, and everyone decided to use guessing to decide who would carry it.

As a result, Luffy lost.

"It's heavy, it's still so hot..."

Luffy dragged all his luggage, hunched over like a turtle, walking slowly, his tongue sticking out, his face covered in sweat.

Suddenly, everyone found that the front didn't seem to be a desert, and Chen Qi yelled: "Everyone, there's a pile of stones ahead!" ”

"Really?"

As soon as he heard this, Luffy looked completely different from just now, dragging his luggage and rushing out like an arrow off the string.

Usopp's mouth widened: "Run so fast!" ”

Chen Qi broke out in a cold sweat: "As soon as I heard that I could rest and eat, it was completely different..."

Luffy, who was running at the front, found that there were dozens of birds lying on the ground in front of him, almost dying.

"Chopper! There are a lot of injured birds here, come and treat them. Luffy called out to Chopper.

"Okay, I got it."

Wei Wei was shocked when she heard this: "Bird? Luffy Wait a minute, those birds are..."

Before Chopper could go over and heal them, the birds seemed to suddenly be full of blood, and one by one they got up from the ground, took the luggage Luffy had brought, and flew away.

These birds are called deception birds, and they specialize in playing dead on the ground to deceive travelers' luggage.

Sanji was very angry, and grabbed Luffy by the collar when he went up: "That's our water and food for three days, and it was actually taken away by birds, how can we cross the desert?" ”

Luffy was also angry: "I'm also a victim, what can I do?!" ”

"Your head isn't as good as a bird."

"What did you say?!"

Zoro: "Stop!! ”

Chen Qi: "The matter has come to this, even if you complain, it's useless, it's better to save some physical strength." Let's rest for a while and then let's go. ”

While they were talking, they saw that a few hundred meters ahead, the deceptive birds had not left, but were still eating their food and drinking water, as if they were provoking them and calling them stupid.

"You bastards! Give us back your luggage!! Luffy shouted angrily and rushed forward.

"Whisper! Gray cat! ”

Chen Qi unleashed the slashing blade, and the sandy blade swept towards the birds...
