Chapter 196 Round-the-Island Kayak Race
"Okay, the winner will have a banquet, and the loser will sink to the bottom of the sea" The host on the stage presided passionately, "The ruthless David Championship officially starts now!" ”
"Oh!!" The crowd cheered three times in response to the occasion.
"Then first of all, the first round, the Round the Island Kayak Race!" As he spoke, the host flashed to the side, revealing the wine barrels piled up behind him, "It can only be made from two wood pulp and three empty barrels, and if you use other materials, you will be disqualified from the competition immediately!" It's up to the boatmen to do what they do. ”
"Teams that don't have empty buckets can come here to get them!" The host shouted to the crowd while slapping the bucket
Then, everyone took three wooden barrels and began their own whimsical creations.
"Okay, while you're making the dinghy, I'll introduce you to the rules of the race!" The host on the stage continued to explain, "The route is to go around this long-chain island, although it looks easy, but in fact it is extremely difficult to navigate, and then, once it sinks, this group is out, in addition, there is no restriction on the use of guns, shells, bombs, daggers and other weapons!" ”
"No restrictions on the use of weapons?" Hearing this, Shirley couldn't help but look up at the host, "Is there any restriction on the use of that ability?" ”
"Of course not, this also counts as part of the weapon!" The moderator replied.
"Isn't there a limit?" Shirley nodded, and then she turned her head to look at Aaron beside her, her eyes uncertain.
……
"Okay! Now that the lineups of each team have been announced, let's announce them according to their popularity! The host took the small note in his hand and said, "Then first of all, sure enough, the most popular are our idols, Miss Polqi of the mighty Fauxy team, as well as the swordfish man Caboti and the star shark Munda, and the dinghy they are in is the 'cute little van'!" ”
On the surface of the sea, a chariot-like pink-and-white dinghy was slowly being dragged to the starting line by an orange shark covered in five-pointed stars, and on the carriage, a man and a woman with pointed noses interacted with the pirates on the shore like stars.
"Wait a minute! Aren't sharks fish?! Nami, who was next to them, objected.
"I hate it~ and there is no rule that fish can't appear." Porki squirmed.
"If all the fish can play, then the human flesh speedboat can also be used, right?" Then, before Nami could retort, Shirley suddenly interjected coldly.
Everyone turned their heads to look and saw Shirley sitting in the center of a chair made of wine barrels, at this time she put her hands on the armchair, crossed her legs, and a cold and arrogant aura emerged.
And what she stepped on was Aaron's elongated and deformed head...... Aaron can breathe in the sea, otherwise he will suffocate sooner or later.
Aaron, back in the world!
"Since all the fish can be the participants, then the participants can also be the boats, right?" Shirley, who was full of asceticism, looked at the host in the distance and said coldly.
"Uh...... Although there is no rule that participants are not allowed to use as a means of transportation, this...""No rule is okay! ”
Shirley forcibly interrupted, and then she tilted her head slightly and motioned to the host: "Go ahead and announce"
“…… Okay" The host wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, this aura of the queen really made him feel like he couldn't stop, "Then continue to announce, the second most popular one is...... Oooh! Very unexpected! It's actually the Straw Hats' trio of navigator Nami, sniper Usopp, and archaeologist, and the dinghy they are riding in is the 'Barrel Tiger'! ”
"Hey, is this thing sturdy? It's not sinking, is it? Nami, who was on the boat, stepped lightly on the plank, and she looked at Usopp with some suspicion.
"I'm not a boatman, I can only do that," Usopp replied helplessly, and then he craned his neck and swung to the side, "But no matter what, it's better than that over there?" ”
The two of them looked over, and then they found the plank boat that Luffy and Sanji were riding in made of several wooden planks, and the human-powered boat made by Chopper on the same principle as a bicycle......
"It's a miracle to be able to float," Robin commented.
"But it's good that we still have Aaron, so we shouldn't lose." Nami patted her chest and rejoiced.
"Then the third most popular is the 'Beauty Town', the fourth is the 'Crab Red Lotus', and the fifth and sixth are ......" and then kept talking for a long time, and didn't talk about Luffy and the others' ships.
"Wait a minute! Why didn't our dinghy count! Then Luffy raised his hand decisively and asked.
"Gollum!" Aaron, whose head had been unable to get out of the water, also came up with a string of bubbles from the side to show his approval.
"Uhh......h Ranked third from the bottom in popularity! ”
"And Luffy's 'One Piece Plate' and Aaron's 'Human Flesh Boat' are tied for the penultimate number!"
"Is Aaron's dinghy the second-to-last? It seems that they don't know how good Aaron is, which is a good thing! After hearing this, Sanji nodded slightly, "Maybe we can win this round!" ”
"But there are still ships that are less popular than Aaron and Luffy's boats...... What does that have to look like? Usopp was surprised.
"By the way, the bottom of the popularity list is the giant boat 'Barrel Carrier!' ”
Empty, empty!
As soon as the host's voice fell, everyone felt that there seemed to be an inexplicable aura behind them, and everyone turned their heads to look and found that there was a huge vat that was three heads tall behind them.
"Wouldn't the oars reach the water?" Zoro hit the nail on the head.
"Ahahahaha, you've noticed, yes, the oars of this ship can't reach the sea! He's filled with seawater! On top of the barrel, a man said triumphantly.
"Idiots for them?" Luffy said without hesitation.
"Maybe they're not just here to play." Shirley looked at the giant barrel lid, "Maybe they're here to thwart us, after all, except for the four of us, the rest are from other teams." ”
"That's right," Sanji nodded slightly, "Let's just be careful"
……
"Alright, please assemble at the starting line!" As he spoke, the host walked up to a life-tall lark, "I will take the rare bird of the South China Sea to tweet in the air for everyone to report live!" ”
"In short, you have to win the game!" After coming on the field, Nami changed her previous distressed appearance, and she looked forward menacingly, with a tragic aura of sacrificing her life for righteousness.
"Wait, look at the back!" Usopp looked behind him, "Don't you think it's strange that most of the dinghy has its bow facing outward, except for that monster-like vat?" ”
"It's weird, but it's none of our business, right?"
"No, no, it's better to be careful," said Usopp, turning around, and he shouted to his partner, "Hey brothers! At the start, we ran outside! ”
"Huh? Why? Luffy looked at Usopp suspiciously.
"I don't have time to explain, just do it!"
"You don't need it," Shirley pulled her foot away from Aaron's head, she looked down at Aaron who was showing his head, "just rush inside, don't worry about anything else." ”
"Oh, but the snow is purring..."After receiving a reply, Aaron was stepped into the water by Shirley again.
"Just know, don't talk nonsense" Saying that, Shirley suddenly felt a little bored, so she supported her cheek with her right hand, and tapped the back of Aaron's head with her toes, and said a little lazyly, "I suddenly feel a little bored, you can use it directly at the beginning."
To this, Aaron's reply was a string of bubbles, plus a thumbs up from his right hand.
"Alright, then let's go!" The presiding officer in the sky loudly announced that he had a pistol in his hand with the muzzle pointed upwards, and a moment later, the presiding officer pressed the trigger.
Bang!
"Let's go!" Empty, empty!
As soon as the host's voice fell, everyone heard a sudden muffled sound like an engine behind the "Human Flesh Boat" that Shirley was riding, and then, everyone saw Aaron's waist straightened, and his whole body leaned upward, and at the same time, his hands went behind his back as if violating the human anatomy, and grabbed the armrest of the chair where Shirley was sitting, so as to act as Shirley's seat belt.
Aaron at this time is like a rocket fired diagonally.
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, Shirley raised her head slightly, she looked at the endless blue sky, her expression was cold, her lips were slightly open, as if the words of the spirit of words clearly came into everyone's ears:
“… Aaron, launched. ”
Sou!
At the sound of the order, Aaron was really like a rocket, leaving the sea in a moment, straight into the sky, and in a few seconds, it became a small dot in the eyes of everyone, and it was about to disappear from view.
“…… Unexpectedly, the first to exert force turned out to be the second-to-last 'human flesh boat'! They're distancing themselves at breakneck speed! The host in the air was also startled by Aaron's actions, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he announced excitedly, "Unexpectedly, the 'Human Flesh Boat' actually broke through the limitations of being a ship and directly jumped into a spaceship!" It's really an unexpected dark horse, is there no suspense about the championship?! ”
"What? How can it be so fast?! Polki looked at Aaron's back in disbelief, and she said to her partner in a bit of a panic, "Munda, Kabodi, let's hurry up and use our tricks directly, we must catch up with that guy!" ”
"Okay Miss Porchi!" As he spoke, Kaboti jumped into the water with a fierce son, and at the same time, the star shark Monka, who was pulling the boat in front, suddenly opened its mouth, and it bit the lower half of Kaboti's body, "Swordfish fish man swimming method!" ”
Whew!
After chanting his stunt, Caboti used his ten-fold strength as a fish-man to give full play to his muscles, and with the impetus of Monka's tail fin, the boat quickly distanced itself from the crowd and was chasing after Aaron.
"Oh, Aaron's really good!" Seeing the scene just now, everyone in the Straw Hats showed a knowing smile, and Zoro couldn't help but say, "This championship should be considered stable." ”
"But we can't pull it down, since it's a game, let's do our best to have a game!" At this time, everyone's mentality was completely different from just now, and Sanji proposed to everyone.
"Oh! I'm not going to lose to Aaron, "Bang!
Before Luffy could finish speaking, another muffled sound came from his side, Luffy turned his head to look, and found that the boat where Usopp and the others were staying also overtook many boats in an instant as if they had been drugged, and rushed towards Porki and them with all his might.
"Then let's go first!" Nami turned her head and shouted to the crowd.
"Oh! The triumphant Miss Nami is also very heroic! Sanji's long-lost shouts went online.
"How did they do it?" Luffy tilted his head, he was a little confused.
"It's the wind shells, they press the wind shells to the back of the boat to provide propulsion"
"Huh...... With Sanji! I have a great idea! As he spoke, Luffy turned his head and stared straight at the boat next to him.
“…… What do you want? The guy from the boat next to him looked at Luffy warily.
"Hee-hee! I'll lend you a plank to use! Luffy gave a big smile at the little brother, and then he stretched out his hand and snapped two planks from their boat.
"Sit down Sanji, I'm going to start!"
"Hey, what the hell do you want" "Rubber rubber, big windmill!" "Bastard! I haven't sat down yet! ”
And when the Straw Hat Pirates began to chase after them, a new moth appeared on Aaron's side.
"Hey, can you take this guy down?" In the air, Shirley looked solemnly ahead, and she couldn't help but ask Aaron under her feet.
"Huh? Why should I bring him down? Aaron replied with a blank look on his face.
"And if he's our opponent, can you take him down?" Shirley touched on what she had said again and continued to ask,
Standing in front of them was the man in the painting that the two had seen earlier on the Foxy Pirates.
And when she got closer, Shirley realized that the person in the painting was really just the person in the painting, he had no thickness at all, but just a moving plane!
For this kind of strange opponent, although Shirley is not afraid, but there is also a trace of fear in her heart, so she unconsciously asked Aaron.
"Why is he our opponent?" Aaron was puzzled, "I can't fight with him at all..."
"Huh? What do you mean? Shirley looked at Aaron, "I remember you kept saying that you didn't make it up before, what do you mean?" ”
"Because he already exists," sub-ethics said,
"To put it bluntly."
"He's my isograph," Aaron tilted his head and thought for a moment, then he replied, "Simply put, it's me in the flat world." ”
"Homographs? Flat world? Shirley repeated in surprise, but she quickly reacted, "So he was indeed drawn by you?" ”
"No, Aaron already exists in the painting" Aaron said helplessly,
"What the hell does that mean?" Shirley was a little confused.
"To put it simply, he is not from our world, but from the flat world, so he is from another world to us."
"You're saying he's from the flat world?" Shirley understood this time, she looked ahead with complicated eyes, quietly looking at the two of her in the painting, and couldn't help but say, "Is there really a flat world?" ”
"Of course there is, otherwise where did he come from?" Aaron shrugged his shoulders, "But don't think that the flat world is just a mural, everyone only has a picture of length and width, in fact, the people in the plane world are also three-dimensional, and in their world they are not much different from us...... It's like Shirley's landscape painting on paper, where the landscape is long, wide and high, but for us it's just a piece of paper, and it's one dimension shorter after all. ”
"So that's the case, no wonder you keep saying that you look like him, it turns out that he is your same form...", she couldn't help but glance at the person in the painting in front of her who didn't look like a human, and then said with a stiff face, "This means that your homomorphic body looks like that bear?" ”
"Yes," Aaron said lightly, and before Shirley could speak, he continued, "That's what I look like in this world. ”
"This world?"
"Well, it stands to reason that the world in the painting and our world are two worlds that absolutely cannot intersect," Aaron thought for a while before saying, "And the reason why 'Flat Aaron' appears in our world now is because of my previous painting, which provides 'Flat Aaron' with a window to our world, and at the same time provides him with a vehicle that can move...... So that's what he looks like in this world."
"To put it simply, he looks like this, it's actually your pot, right?" While Shirley secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she sent her own speechlessness to Aaron, "So, your ghost aesthetic is also hopeless." ”
"How can it be said that it is a ghost, you look at him, he is not very satisfied with his current appearance" As he spoke, Aaron tilted his head and motioned to Shirley to look at the 'painting Aaron' in front of him
"You're the only one who can see the mood of people in those bunch of ghost drawings," Shirley sneered, "Alright, if it's okay, why would he get in our way?" ”
"Maybe there's something wrong with him? I asked him. As he spoke, Aaron turned his head to look at 'Draw Aaron', who had been listening quietly to the conversation between the two without making noise, "That, what are you stopping us for?" ”
After hearing Aaron's question, he first blinked his two walnut eyes, one large and one small, and then opened his big mouth, so that Shirley and the two couldn't help but see the jagged teeth in his mouth, and then he said this to the two:
“#@#%&*!”
