On the sea.

A lifeboat was approaching the island not far away.

On the lifeboat that can accommodate five people, two soldiers are in charge of paddling, and the other two soldiers are standing behind Akainu with solemn expressions.

They can't do anything about the general Akainu's disobedience to military orders, who let this big guy be here by their side.

Compared to the kind Marshal Pheasant, it is obviously this Red Inu General who is more feared.

On the other side, Kaido, who got the latest news from his subordinates, was going to Fish-Man Island, so he changed his route and came to Punk Hazard in advance.

He was very much looking forward to the arrival of the Straw Hat Pirates, after all, it was Wang Luffy, a newcomer who could crack the golden body of the Warring States with one punch, which made him have to be excited.

Thinking of this, Kaido laughed as he grabbed the huge jar beside him and drank to himself.

...

Moments later, the lifeboat docked, and Akainu leaped into the long-deserted island, his empty sleeves fluttering with the navy coat behind him.

"You don't have to come up, wait for me here." After landing smoothly, Akainu said to several soldiers who were hesitant behind him.

After all, they were just ordinary soldiers, and they didn't have much effect in the face of the strength of the Straw Hat Pirates.

With that, the Akainu headed for the center of the island.

Two old acquaintances are about to meet again.

I don't know, now that the red dog with a broken arm can still resist this monster.

......

The other side.

Chen Mu sat comfortably on top of the black whale's head, and behind him was the Sonny, who was dragged forward by the chain.

"Little brother on the whale, we have come out of the windless zone, you let the whale open its mouth, I want to talk about the chain back."

Chen Mu, who can sail freely on the sea without being troubled by seasickness, is in a beautiful mood at this time.

However, Frankie's voice was not appropriate to come from below.

The rare Yaxing was swept away, and Chen Mu let out an 'oh' with some displeasure, gently patted the top of the whale's head, and motioned for it to open its mouth.

Wow~~.

'Ah Whale' opened its huge mouth slightly, and the white waves poured into its mouth, and the originally fixed iron ring slowly broke away from its mouth with the influx of waves, and was slowly absorbed by the small window under the Sonny.

Chen Mu also raised his eyebrows slightly, in this era when navigation relied on wind power, and the Navy's science department developed wheel power, it is also very good that Frankie can have such an achievement.

Of course, much of this is due to his two years of study in the laboratory of the greatest scientist, Vegapunk's hometown.

The people of the straw hats have performed well in various fields, and they seem to be developing towards the route of a standard elite group.

It smells like a red-haired pirate group.

Chen Mu smiled faintly and withdrew his distant thoughts. With his arms outstretched, he took a deep breath and lay down.

Looking at the blue sky, the white clouds, and the falling snowflakes, the corners of Chen Mu's mouth unconsciously raised an arc of happiness, this kind of leisurely time is not something he could live in his previous life, after all, workers are very busy.

Chen Mu put his left hand behind his head, grabbed the slowly falling snowflakes with his right hand, and gently pinched them, turning them into gray dust and slowly drifting in the air.

At the same time, a choking smell came, which made Chen Mu frown.

Although he hadn't seen snow a few times in his previous life, he still knew one of the characteristics of snowflakes, tastelessness.

At this moment, the slight coughing of everyone and the shouts of Nami were heard below.

"Everyone go into the room, and it's volcanic ash falling outside."

Then came the orderly footsteps of the crowd.

At the end, Luffy also greeted Chen Mu, who was 'drenched in ashes', but Chen Mu refused.

Cut, what is volcanic ash, can it be compared to seasickness......

After that, he patted the 'whale' lightly, and the black whale slowly began to sink to the surface of the sea.

In the end, Chen Mu's lips and below were all submerged in the seawater.

in the room.

Nami, dressed in a rainbow swimsuit, turned her back to the crowd, looking at the needle on her left wrist that was shaking faster and faster, her eyebrows frowned, and she seemed to hesitate to change course, after all, the frequency of those two hands was not so outrageous.

"Hey, Nami, what are you looking at?"

At this moment, Luffy's neck stretched out again and leaned over.

The expression on Nami's face froze suddenly, and she turned her head with difficulty and looked at Luffy whose eyes were shining.

With a heartfelt voice, it's over...

"Oh~~, this needle shaking is so interesting, it makes me smell adventure!"

After Luffy finished smiling, he didn't give Nami a chance to react, and after retracting his neck, he crossed his hands on his hips and looked at the curious crowd.

"Everyone, the route has been decided, let's prepare." After speaking, he rushed to the door, stretched out his arms, and grabbed the little lion in the distance, and then the whole person catapulted, and it had reached his exclusive VIP seat.

“！！！” Usopp was shocked.

Passing the crowd in a daze, he ran straight to Nami, and said with some worry: "Nami, is it really okay, the choice of these three routes will be related to life." ”

A helpless smile tugged at the corners of Nami's mouth and shook her head gently at Usopp.

Seeing this, Usopp sighed slightly, it was considered to be fate, who made Luffy the captain.

The ash outside stopped, and everyone walked out of the room and onto the ship's board.

Luffy looked at the people who walked out of the room, grinned, and then turned around, put his right hand in front of his forehead, and looked into the distance, as if he couldn't wait to land on the island.

"Huh?"

Luffy sighed softly and stared at the wooden blocks floating on the surface of the sea, noticing that on one of the wooden boards, there seemed to be light being refracted continuously.

"Wow~~~"

At this moment, Chen Mu controlled the huge whale to slowly float, and when he appeared on the surface of the sea, he also found that strange wooden plank.

"It seems to be a figure.... No, it's a frozen figure. Chen Mu stared at it for a while, and then he completely saw the situation on the wooden board.

"Hey, uncle, did you see that?" Luffy's head sticks out from the edge of the boat and looks at Chen Mu, who is closer to the plank.

Chen Mu was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Luffy, nodded lightly at him, and said, "It's a person, frozen in ice." ”

"Ah, is it a victim, uncle, come up quickly."

Hearing that someone was killed, Chopper, who was worried, hurriedly ran to Luffy, and then jumped on Luffy's head with his flexible little body, grabbed Luffy's straw hat tightly with both hands, and shouted eagerly to Chen Mu in the distance.

How many times have you said it, don't call me uncle, I'm a few years older than you, okay...... The corners of Chen Mu's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but scold.

Although his face was full of unhappiness, Chen, who was still very honest, still chose to lean over.

Approaching the plank, Chen Mu picked up the plank with one hand, lifted it up with the board, and shook it at Luffy and the others.

Everyone looked at the high wooden plank, the thick ice moved back and forth, and even almost fell into the sea, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, another guy with a big heart like Luffy.

A moment later, the 'Whale' carried Chen Mu to the side of the boat, and then the huge body drove out to the surface, and stopped when Chen Mu was on the same level as the boat.

Luffy jumped off the bow of the ship, stretched out his hands directly, grabbed the ice cube that was still steaming, and dragged it back to his side.

Behind him, Chopper hurriedly ran over, looked at the huge ice in front of him, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Doctor! What about the doctor! Then the little face was stunned.

"Ah, I'm just a voice," he said, putting on his stethoscope with a serious face and glaring at everyone.

Confused, Usopp and Brooke silently flicked the cigarette away and walked into the kitchen.

It's better to know it best, Sauron, and walk out.

Boom!

The word of the Tao is unsheathed, and he throws it out of his hand, so that the back of the knife is downward, and he swings it hard.

'Click, click'

The sound of ice cracking sounded, and the thick ice quickly cracked at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the white-covered figure also successfully escaped from the trap, only temporarily speaking, losing consciousness.

Chopper took a few steps forward to the unconscious victim, and the stethoscope rested on his chest for a few seconds.

Slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said to everyone: "It's just that I passed out, and there is no danger to my life." ”

This scene made Chen Mu a little familiar, and he was a little uncertain, and patted the mount under him.

The figure of 'Ah Whale' rose again, and after reaching a certain height, Chen Mu's eyes looked over everyone's heads and saw the victim trapped in the center.

This is...... Zefa!?

Chen Mu's pupils contracted, and he first glanced at this person's short purple hair uncertainly, and then his eyes moved and he saw the Hailou Stone mechanical arm on his right arm, and then he was determined.

And that's... Black-wristed Zefa!

It's really a bad fate, you can meet it like this...... Chen Mu looked at everyone, and his eyes revealed an indescribable strangeness.

Looking at the relieved crowd, the corners of Chen Mu's mouth twitched even more.

At this moment, the Chief Financial Officer, Nami spoke.

"We're not going to pick up another troublesome guy, we're short on food."

Saying this, Nami subconsciously glanced outside the ship, only to find that Chen Mu had long since disappeared, replaced by a huge black shadow that could not be seen at a glance.

Good fellow, if I had been on the boat again, I was afraid that I would not have been able to escape the 'blackmail' again

Hearing Nami's slightly disgusted tone, Chen Mu subconsciously tightened the small treasury and hurriedly urged 'Ah Whale' to rise. At the same time, he patted his chest with palpitations and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Nami didn't see the person in her 'mind', and withdrew her gaze a little boredly, looking at the unconscious old man who was being manipulated by everyone.

"Hiss~"

Robin withdrew his jade finger like an electric shock, frowned and said, "This person's right arm is made of Hailou stone. ”

Everyone froze, and then locked their eyes on the massive mechanical stone arm.

"It's actually a powerful weapon made of Hailou stone..."Nami looked at the mechanical arm thoughtfully.

Then his eyes lit up, and he said with some excitement: "It should be worth a lot of money..."

"Hey, Nami, it's a patient." Usopp drooped his eyelids and whispered to Nami with a slight disgust.

'When! ’

Everyone turned their heads to look at Nami with a proud face, and then at Usopp who was squatting on the ground with his back to the crowd and drawing circles, with a steaming 'big bag' on top of his head.

The foreheads of the people were covered with black lines, and they were slightly speechless.

...

Frankie carried Zefa on his shoulders and followed Chopper's footsteps to carry him to the hospital bed, during which Luffy couldn't help but be curious and touched the mechanical arm twice.

While sighing 'so handsome', he fell weakly to Usopp.

"Hey, Luffy, that thing is for those who specialize in restraining abilities, so don't you touch it?" Usopp said helplessly.

"Well, this weapon should be specifically designed to deal with your abilities." Sanji silently lit a cigarette and looked at Zefa's eyes, which gradually became intriguing.

"Hey, Smelly Chef, you don't want to take him to the next meal." Zoro noticed Sanji's abnormality and hit Sanji with his right elbow, saying with a strange smile on his face.

"Shut up, green algae, chef's knives will only swing at food!" Sanji replied.

"Oh, I'll just tell you, why are you so excited......" Zoro turned around without paying attention, turned his back to Sanji, and muttered quietly.

"I can hear you!!" Sanji gasped and glared at Zoro's back.

At this time, Nami passed between the two and looked at Zefa on the hospital bed with a little worry: "He... Maybe it's the enemy, you can't be careless in the new world, and... We have four more capable people on the ship, and it always feels like we have him... It's too dangerous. ”

Everyone was slightly stunned, and after a short thought, they realized Nami's worries.

Person... It's dangerous.

Just as everyone was thinking about whether to control it first, and then find the nearest island and put it down, Luffy spoke.

"Huh? What about the uncle, why is the uncle not there? Luffy looked left and right, but didn't find Chen Mu's figure.

Nami looked at Luffy with some confusion, everyone was struggling for his personal safety, but he was okay and cared about others.

Then, Nami was suddenly stunned, her beautiful big eyes turned around, as if she thought of something, and hurriedly ran outside, shouting at Chen Mu on a high place: "Big... Uncle, come down quickly, we have something to ask for your opinion. ”

Chen Mu, who was sitting bored, was stunned for a moment, looked down, and just saw Nami waving at him, and the greatness of 'shaking' under the rainbow bikini.

Chen Mu's eyes froze, and after scanning back and forth, he coughed twice maturely, and said, "Well, you go first, and I'll come down." ”

Then he secretly praised 'It's so big', and then he propped up his hands and jumped down.

As soon as Nami walked up to the second floor, she heard the sound of a heavy object falling behind her and turned her head to look.

I saw Chen Mu half-squatting on the ground, holding the familiar long knife in his left hand, slowly standing up from the ground, and when he saw Nami coming, he threw a very gentlemanly smile at him.

Nami turned her head a little puzzled, and said in her heart, "Well, why isn't this uncle seasick again?" Then he shook his head and stepped inside.

Chen Mu followed closely and walked into the health room on the second floor.

Everyone saw Chen Mushou walk in indifferently, a smile flashed on his face, and at the same time, he also noticed the 'unsheathed' blade in his hand, and a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of several people with IQ online, and then they lowered their heads with a thoughtful look.

Could it be that this uncle is planning to ......

Luffy spoke in time, interrupting the speculation of Robin and the others.

"Uncle, what do you think of me keeping this old man as a partner?" Luffy asked with a smile on his face.

"......" everyone was speechless.

This captain... I really can't tell the difference.

Chen Mu waved his right hand indifferently and said indifferently: "No, you'd better not think about it." ”

After a pause, he said: "I said it earlier, I am a few years older than you, don't call me uncle!" ”

A few years older than us...... Everyone was stunned for a moment, then turned their heads in unison to look at Brooke, who was counting with his fingers.

"He's not counted..."Chen Mu said angrily with a broken face.

"Oh—" everyone nodded, as if they didn't understand.

Chen Mu obviously gave up on changing their minds, didn't dwell on this bad topic, and said to Nami, "Is there anything wrong with telling me to come down...... I'll say okay first, I don't think there's any money. ”

Nami's beautiful eyes lit up first, then darkened, and said in a somewhat weak tone: "I just want you to see Uncle how dangerous this person is, if it's too dangerous, we plan to ......"

"Well, you're right, throw him overboard." After speaking, Chen Mu glanced at Nami, who was graceful, and then glanced at Robin, who was also tall, and turned his head a little reluctantly and walked out of the room.

I can't help it, this feeling of weakness... It makes him feel that a man's majesty has passed away, and he is uncomfortable with old age.

"Ah, no, uncle, we didn't plan to leave him behind. It's just that they plan to tie him up first, then go to the nearest island, and then let him go. Sensing the strange stares of the crowd, Nami hurriedly explained.

"Huh?" Chen Mu turned around and stared at Nami with a puzzled expression.

After a pause, he continued: "Why bother so much, sooner or later, you will have to attack him." ”

This time it was everyone's turn to be stunned.

What do you mean by 'sooner or later'?

Is this old man so dangerous......

Usopp, the king of chatter, once again played his role and asked everyone's doubts.

"Uncle, why should we attack him, is this old man strong enough to threaten you?"

Chen Mu: "??? ”

Wait, why count me in, he's just a disaster for you...

Make no mistake, I'm not in the gang, I'm just a paid boat passenger...... Chen Mu was smitten in his heart, and once again remembered the fear of being dominated by Nami.

"No, he... It doesn't threaten me, but it threatens you... It's still possible. Chen Mu glanced at Zefa on the hospital bed and said in a flat tone.

"Uncle, aren't we companions..."Nami looked at Chen Mu pitifully, her autumn-like eyes flashed with crystal tears, and she looked like she wanted to cry, which made people feel particularly distressed.

It also happened to touch the softness in Chen Mu's heart.

"Hey, that's it, I can protect you once at a critical moment, but you still have to rely on yourself in the end, otherwise you will fall under the enemy's hands sooner or later."

Zoro snorted faintly and turned his head away.

As a tough guy, he doesn't need to grow up under the care of others.

Chen Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Zoro and Sanji, who didn't care, and then looked at Usopp and Chopper, who were quietly relieved, and felt a burst of amusement.

"That uncle... Do you know who he is? Nami blinked her big watery eyes and pointed pitifully at the man on the hospital bed.

"Yes, I know!" Chen Mu smiled slightly and nodded at Nami.

"Then he... Is it really dangerous. Nami continues to sell moe.

"Hmmm! It's really dangerous. Chen Mu continued to smile, his eyes occasionally glancing somewhere.

Nami seemed to notice Chen Mu's eyes, and subconsciously straightened the proud peak on her chest, and said, "That uncle must know his identity." ”

Chen Mu's eyes froze, nodded stupidly, and said, "Well, his name is Zefa, and he is the teacher of Yellow Ape and others." ”

Everyone's pupils contracted, and the entire health room instantly fell silent.

After being stunned for a while, Chen Mu came to his senses. Turning his eyes off Nami, he looked at the crowd with frozen expressions, and secretly said that it was bad and spoiled again......
