Chapter 32: Build a Secret Base!
After a few people solved the stomach problem, the already somewhat gloomy sky had begun to sprinkle sparse light rain on the ground at this time, and there was a tendency to turn into a torrential rain.
"Is it raining?" Sabo looked up at the increasingly gloomy sky, frowned slightly, and stood up to leave. "Let's find a place to shelter from the rain."
"Anyway, it's getting colder and colder." Bai Yan shrunk his neck, he was still quite afraid of the cold.
The sharp-eyed Luffy saw a tree hole in the distance through the misty rain curtain: "There's a tree hole there!" ”
"Let's go." Ace, who was at the front, walked through the thicker and thicker curtain of rain and led the way into the hollow of the tree.
The heavier and more violent torrential rain poured down mercilessly, crackling on the blades of grass, and every now and then some cold wind mixed with raindrops blew into the tree holes. Luffy stared at the rain curtain stupidly for a long time, and then felt the Phantom Moon behind him, and suddenly grinned and let out a string of laughs: "Hehehehehe... ”
Several other people heard Luffy's inexplicable laughter, and they suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of security and steadiness back to back.
Even if they are not related by blood, they are the closest people to each other. The closest people are relatives, aren't they?
Listening to the noisy sound of rain outside the cave, several children felt that their eyelids gradually began to feel a little heavy, and the steel pipe in their hands involuntarily fell off from their hands, and after a while, they fell asleep one by one.
Phantom Moon silently looked at the quiet sleeping faces of the others, and the rain that was blown into the cave from time to time and fell on them, and couldn't help but frown slightly.
She vaguely remembered what Dadan had said unintentionally before:
"Old rain will catch a cold。。。。。"
Phantom Moon, who withdrew from Ace Luffy's side and couldn't find a shelter to keep out the rain, paused, thought for a while, and then slowly sat down at the entrance of the tree hole with the darkness in her arms.
The girl's somewhat thin figure suddenly blocked most of the rain, but it quickly doused her into a soup chicken.
Feeling the hair sticking to her face because of the rain, Phantom Moon didn't even have the idea of reaching out to take it away, letting it hang wet on her face, looking at the heavy rain outside with an expressionless face.
She herself had seen rain before, but she never sheltered from the rain, at most she stopped and found a place to settle and looked at the sky in the same position as she did now, watching the rain fall from the sky and then fall into her eyes.
Suddenly, he couldn't feel the cold raindrops hitting his body, and Ace's eyes opened in a daze, but because the phantom moon was blocking the entrance of the cave, and the rainy day was already very gloomy, he could only see a blurry figure blocking the entrance of the cave through the dim light.
。。。。。。 Who is it?
Squirming his lips and making a mouth shape, Ace finally failed to ask the words, and the violent sleepiness like a tide quickly swallowed up the last trace of consciousness he had, and fell into a deep sleep.
And the girl at the entrance of the cave didn't notice anything strange behind her, and still sat there reminiscing about the past through the misty rain curtain.

"Ah, has the rain stopped?" Feeling a ray of sunlight shining on his eyelids, Sabo, who was the first to wake up, looked up at the empty hole and exclaimed in surprise.
I don't know when the phantom moon, who had already sat in a corner, quietly extinguished the black fire used to dry the water on her body, and indifferently opened her eyes to look at the few people who woke up leisurely.
"It's really stopped." After the rain, the grass exudes a unique fragrance, and the dark clouds that used to be heavy in the sky have long since disappeared, replaced by clear sunshine. Luffy couldn't help but take a deep breath of the aroma of grass in the air.
"I slept pretty well." Bai Yan stretched lazily.
Only Ace stared at the entrance of the cave.
Was it his delusion? He clearly felt that someone was sitting here before.
Shaking his still confused head, Ace put the matter aside for the time being, and turned to look at Sabo, who had pulled out a design drawing at some point.
"What is this?" Luffy curiously came up to take a look.
"This is the blueprint of our secret base." Sabo looked proud, "I think this tree is very good, and it is only fitting that the secret base is built here." ”
"Where can I find the materials?" Although he was very excited, Bai Yan thought of a very troublesome question and couldn't help but scratch his head.
"Well... Saab glanced at the garbage heap in the distance. "Isn't there a lot of material?"
"So what are you waiting for? Let's get started! Ace grinned.
"Good!"

Looking at the small wooden house on top of the towering tree, especially the "ASHBL" flag fluttering on the top of the tree, the hearts of several people were filled with a sense of accomplishment.
"That's good." Ace smiled slightly.
"Even I, the designer, feel that it is very well built." Sabo's chin was propped up, and a smug smile was on his face.
Phantom Moon took a cloth and carefully wiped the black knife that had been stained with a lot of wood chips from cutting the planks.
"This will be our "home" in the future, right? Bai Yan smiled.
"This will be our secret base from now on!"
The emotional Luffy yelled directly at the sky.
Their secret base, built!
