The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates

"Hey, fellow Smoker."

The sound of ping-pong-pong battle gradually faded away, and in the team escorting the children away, the white knight shook his head helplessly.

The natural department has been playing hand-to-hand combat throughout the whole process, and even lost all the various smoke skills in Alabasta. This Smoker... is probably useless.

"What's wrong, Roman?"

Nami quietly approached the White Knight and asked in a low voice. Although Smoker was chasing after the Straw Hats, the Straw Hats actually didn't hate him. This is also the reason why the Straw Hats have been avoiding fighting Smoker.

"Smog is probably not Luo's opponent, he really is... How should I put it?"

Although 'smoke' can't be compared with freezing, magma, lightning... these amazingly lethal nature-types, but it is still a majestic nature-type devil fruit!

In the hands of Smoker, he can only abuse food. Not only is it useless when meeting a master, but it becomes a weakness?

What is the law of heaven!

'Smoke' not only includes traditional soot and water mist, but also includes mist generated by various solid dust as condensation nuclei, or various pollutants generated by photochemical reactions of hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides. Theoretically speaking, the smoke fruit should even be regarded as the upper rank of the 'gas fruit', the result:

Caesar, a scientist who is not a combatant, knows that he has developed practical skills such as gas explosion, suffocating space, poison gas filling, etc. As a result, Smoker can only shake his fist...

Not to mention too much, if you directly create a large area of ​​smoke, even if the "fog concealment technique" can be cracked by the master's knowledge and arrogance, can the master not breathe? Increasing the smoke concentration can easily form a suffocation effect!

Just like Mo Lao Wu in the Hunter World next door, he is not yet a naturalist. An old smoker can play superbly, all kinds of small smoke rabbits, smoke clones, smoke cages, badass pipes, and purple smoke mechanized teams cooperate with changeable and flexible tactics, and they have won many opponents stronger than themselves.

Poor Smoker, this must have been abandoned by the 'version'...

"Anyway, let's rest here first. - Chopper, Sanji, come here."

In a huge abandoned laboratory not far away, Roman cut through the metal wall with a few swords. First let Frankie install the lighting facilities, then Nami and Brooke took the children to clean up the place as a temporary base, and finally called Sanji and Chopper over.

"Sanji, these guys are handed over to you for interrogation."

Roman pointed to the biochemical armed personnel who had been wrapped in his paper and turned into puppets,

Although Sanji treats women like a gentleman, he treats men like... and as the prince of the "Kingdom of Germa", he is no stranger to interrogating people. ——Although he was usually the one who was tortured when he was a child.

"give it to me."

In the face of these guys who obviously only want to write "I am a bad person" and "illegal experiment" on their faces, Sanji will not be polite to them.

"Mr. Roman, I want to check the health of the children..."

Facing the words of the little reindeer, Roman nodded.

"What I'm going to say is this - I've already looked at these children domineeringly, and they don't have any physical 'hands and feet': such as explosive collars, subcutaneous signal generators, etc. Then: "

"Since even the children sensed that something was wrong, they turned to strangers like us for help. Then how could the mastermind who kidnapped them let them move freely?"

It's another secret experiment, and it's Qiwuhai guarding the gate again. It's unrealistic for the other party to let Roman and others take the children away like this! unless:

"Understood, Monsieur Roman. But:—hope it's not what I think it is,"

Chopper put down his backpack, took out various medical instruments from it, and prepared to collect blood from the children for analysis. And Roman among the white knights shook his head silently.

That's a pity, it's what you think it is!

—————

"ROOM-Scalpel!"

On the other side of the battlefield, as Smoker's heart was taken away by Luo, the battle ended immediately.

The rest, whether it is Colonel Dashiqi or other G-5 naval soldiers, in Luo's field, they can only wait for death... No! Can't even think about dying.

"Look, I just said that there was a warship floating in the sky just now!"

"This is really..."

Following a burst of rumbling footsteps, the huge half-human, half-crocodile 'Tea Beard' carried Luffy, Sauron, Usopp, and Robin to the battlefield, making everyone turn their heads away.

"Hee hee hee, isn't this Telaan?"

Luffy waving his hand instantly broke the bleak atmosphere and made the air lively.

"Is it Trafalgar Law?"

Robin recognized each other at a glance——a normal pirate group should know each other, after all, this is the famous "Qiwuhai".

"Isn't this the guy I met at Chambord's Auction House?"

However, the four members of the Straw Hat Group, except for Robin, still have the impression of Luo as the people who eat melons in the Chambord Islands...

"After the war on top, thank you for helping me heal my wounds~~ Thank you so much!"

"By the way, where's your talking bear?"

Facing the familiar Luffy, Luo spoke slowly with a cold face.

"You don't have to thank me, it's just a whim."

"Don't forget that we are all pirates..."

"Hee hee, I know."

However, how can Luffy's thinking be understood by normal people?

"We are indeed enemies in the matter of seizing the 'big secret treasure'. But it was also thanks to you two years ago——meeting Jinbei and then meeting you again, it's really good luck!"

··········

Luo: Who is talking about big secret treasures with you, don't give me such a familiarity, hey!

"You didn't come to see me, did you?"

Ignoring the expression of "help me" winked by the "tea beard" who was being used as a mount. Luo, who maintained the aloof personality, pointed in the direction where Roman and the others left, "Your partners are all over there."

"Thanks, Telaan~~!"

Lu Fei flew away in a hurry, just like he came in a hurry.

After taking Smoker's heart away, Luo also turned and left. ——Today, the island is owned by the Navy and the Straw Hats, which is far beyond his scope. and:

The Straw Hats... two years ago, the total bounty exceeded 900 million, and the Star Pirates had three supernovas.

If you use them, maybe you can bring down that guy:

Don Quixote Doflamingo! !

Mr. Corazon's revenge, I will definitely avenge it. Just wash your neck and wait——

—————

"Hahaha, this place you made is not bad."

"Giant dragons, human-faced birds, centaurs... and swimming in the icy lake with Luffy on their backs..."

Usopp, with a frustrated face, said that he never wanted to encounter the second "adventure" before, but soon he began to use his "specialty":

"Hahaha, the next thing I want to say is: the great sea warrior Usopp braves the dragon—"

"Oh oh oh oh!"

A group of children began to listen to Usopp bragging about nine falsehoods and one true one with bright eyes.

on the other side:

"The interrogation is out,"

Sanji, who wiped the blood from his hands, walked into this temporary settlement. You must know that he was the one who dared to beat the navy who came to eat beyond recognition. There was no psychological pressure to beat these armed men who were not good at first glance. Facing White Knight, Nami, Zoro, Robin, Brooke and others, Sanji shared the information he got:

"These kids are normal when they come here,"

"But under the treatment of the 'master' here, the size began to grow. - The longer the child stays, the bigger it is! This is not a 'treatment' at all, but—"

"Sure enough, it's the 'Human Enormization Experiment'."

Nami sighed, witnesses and evidences were all in front of her eyes, and the last trace of illusion was extinguished. these kids...

"Scum!"

Sanji ruthlessly threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomped it out. You must know that things like "human experimentation" are definitely what he hates the most! His mother, sister, those 'brothers', and even himself are all tragic products of 'human experimentation'.

"This is 'NHC10'?!"

Chopper, who was analyzing and testing the children's blood, was surprised and made them all turn their heads away.

"Although it is only a small amount, the substance 'NHC10' has been extracted from the blood of the children, which means..."

"What is NHC10?"

Facing Luffy who suddenly stretched his neck, Chopper replied angrily.

"This is... a stimulant that is strictly prohibited by all countries. It is used medically as an analgesic, but even as a medical treatment, the dose needs to be strictly controlled, because this thing..."

"It will be addictive."

The white knight next to him took up the topic, "Simply put, it's like Sanji's cigarettes and Sauron's wine. Once you lack them, you will feel uncomfortable."

"Hey, I haven't had a drink for two years!"

"Cigarettes or something, even if you don't smoke..."

"However, the consequences of this 'NHC10' are not comparable to that of tobacco and alcohol. If you do not take this stimulant for a period of time, people will:"

"Woo, how uncomfortable!"

At this moment, the biggest little girl suddenly knelt down on the ground,

In a room that was obviously warm, she was trembling all over, and tears and snot began to flow uncontrollably.

"Sinde!"

"What’s wrong with you?"

However, as this child became abnormal, the other huge children began to roll and cry with their heads in their arms one by one. Just by looking at them, it was obvious that they were extremely uncomfortable.

"Moza, even you..."

Even the little black-haired girl who mustered up the courage to stop Nami from asking for help was so uncomfortable that she pressed her head to the floor, causing Roman in the White Knight to sigh.

Caesar, experimented with children, and controlled them with drugs...

It's too bottomless.
