Chapter 1616 (*) For Seafood Chopper, attack!
The Sunny, or the Thousand Mile Sunshine (or the Thousand Mile Sunshine), a pirate ship carrying a nest of pirates, was currently driving at a high speed towards a destination in the wind on the sea.
I don’t know how long it took to drive, but it was not until they discovered the hazy outline of an island on the sea level ahead that their speed barely slowed down.
"Luffy!"
"A island was found ahead!"
Nami, a sailor from Donghai, who was born in the straw hat group, nicknamed "Little Thieves Cat", was the first to discover the island hidden at sea level. So she summoned Luffy and others at the bow of the boat, and after Luffy ran over immediately, handed the telescope in her hand to the other party's hand.
"Look!"
"It's right there!"
Nami reached out to point Luffy in the direction.
At this distance, if you don’t use a telescope to see, you can only see a vague little black dot, which will be ignored if you are not careful.
“Where? Where?”
?˙?˙)?
"there!"
"ah?"
“It looks so far…”
"yes."
"At the current speed, it may take a while to see clearly."
“Um…”
"I hope I've found the wrong place, right?"
After hearing Nami's reminder, Anne, Aru, Komatsu, Usopp, Sanji, Robin and others from the Straw Hats also rushed to the bow of the boat.
However, apart from Luffy holding a telescope and a little girl who could see far and wide without a telescope, they just barely saw a black outline of the island appearing at the sea level beside the sky.
“Wow~!”
"Is that the island we are looking for?"
"It's really hard to find!"
Luffy held the telescope and saw the strangely shaped island indicated by Nami at a glance, and at the same time he couldn't help but exclaim and be grateful.
If they hadn't met the food hunters Alu and Anne, they would have definitely not known that the seafood fruits were growing on such an island. I'm afraid they were still aimlessly rushing around the seabed and the sea area. Then it's very likely that Chopper couldn't find it until his whole body turned blue, and then he watched Chopper leave and was helpless?
"That's right!"
"I can vaguely smell the scent of the ingredients that come with the sea breeze. There is definitely no mistake, it's there!"
As the ship turned and accelerated again, as the outline of the island gradually became clear, Alu said with some excitement.
His nose would not lie to him. He was sure that the island ahead should be the ingredients they were looking for, which had both medical and edible effects such as seafood fruits.
"strangeness?"
"Why do I seem to see a high wall above..."
“Is anyone living on this island?”
"Then will we just go directly to the people on the island to ask?"
Usopp took the telescope from Luffy's hand and looked towards the top of the island. Then, in addition to the dazzling array of ingredients and vegetation, he seemed to see a door and a high wall.
The high wall was obviously artificial, so when he wanted to come, he would just wait for someone to ask directly later, and he would save himself from wandering around and wasting time.
"No more?"
"That should be left over from the past."
"According to records, there are not only various Chinese delicacies on this island, but also many beasts. Then one day, all the people who were originally operating here were driven away by the beasts and monsters."
"Of course, I'm not sure about the specific details. Anyway, that's what the book says."
Alu refuted Usopp's statement and drooped his shoulders. He just knew this place and had never really been here. Therefore, he had only heard of some things and was not very brave to promise.
“Eh?”
"But, Ah Lu, why is that happening?"
Komatsu felt a little strange.
It was the first time he heard that animals drove people away. After all, this place was not a food industry, so it was unlikely that they would encounter a creature with a high level of capture that even food hunters could not resist.
"Because of the interests!"
"After all, I have said before that many of the ingredients on this island can be used as medicinal materials, so many people have flocked here and made the island messy."
"Then……"
"The indigenous people on the island were unable to bear the harassment, so they united and drove them away."
"Ha ha!"
"That must be a good thing that food hunters did a long time ago. Anyway, that's probably what happened."
Alu scratched his head and started to laugh dryly with some embarrassment.
He knew that for the sake of profit, food hunters could do anything, and if it weren't for the fact that it was too far from where humans lived, and there were many other alternatives for the ingredients used for healing, and there was also the existence of a professional healing holy place like the country of healing, so over time, when the interests and risks were not proportional, the place was gradually forgotten and abandoned by people, and no one was willing to come here without a commission.
"Anyway!"
"If the record is correct, the seafood fruit we are looking for must be on top!"
After laughing, Alu said confidently.
At this time, the island was getting closer and closer. They could see its peculiar appearance from afar, exactly the same as the photos he had seen in food books. There was definitely no mistake.
“!!”
"Since the seafood fruit is on the island, what are we waiting for?"
"Everything takes action!"
"quick!"
"Everyone, come and prepare, we're going to set off soon!"
Luffy jumped onto the railing along the ship and prepared to mobilize before logging in.
"For Chopper!"
"Let's land on the island, no matter what monsters there are, we have to fight them all..."
“??”
"Ann, Anne?!"
When Luffy stepped on the railing along the boat and was clamoring to go to the island to kill everyone and grab the seafood fruit no matter what, suddenly, he saw a little girl flying first, and then left everyone else and began to fly to the island far away.
"Your broken ship is too slow!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"If you slow down, that deer-headed villain will probably be dead. So, now I will set out first and find you the seafood fruit!"
(?????-)
"That's all!"
?*.?(ˊˋ*)??*.
Anne, who was flying in the sky in the distance, turned around and said kindly and volunteered. Then, without waiting for everyone on the boat to say something, she accelerated and flew straight towards the island, and soon left everyone's sight and disappeared into the dense jungle on the island in the distance.
"Oh~!"
"Anne's magic is so convenient!"
Seeing that Annie was so active and took the lead on the island without waiting for everyone to say something, and flew so fast, Nami couldn't help but sigh with envy.
"Anne!"
"We must find it! We'll be here soon!"
"Be careful about safety!!!"
Luffy couldn't fly, and he couldn't let his feet stretch out to the point where he could just step over such a long distance, so he could only continue to stand on the guardrail along the boat, and then waved his arms and shouted loudly in the direction where Anne left in the distance.
“!!”
"not good!"
"ah……"
“Oops…”
However, unlike Nami's praise, Luffy's shouts, and the gratitude of the others in the Straw Hats, the hearts of Aru and Komatsu who came with Annie suddenly stumbled, and then they exclaimed and lamented in surprise.
“Huh?”
"Strange, Mr. Aru, and Mr. Komatsu, is there any problem with this?"
Luffy looked at the two of them inexplicably.
After all, he knew the strength of that little girl Anne, and the other party was so powerful that one person could beat them all over the boat! So, he felt that the dangerous animals or monsters on that island would definitely not be her opponent, and he didn't think they needed to worry about the other party.
“??”
"What's wrong?"
Nami also felt that the reaction between the two seemed a bit strange.
She thought that if Anne took action personally, there would be no problem. Just like the last time she was on Hanklira Island, everyone quickly figured out the true face of the island with Anne. Then, their boats successfully replenished a lot of delicious food for this.
“…”
“…”
Alu and Komatsu first looked at each other tacitly, and then looked at the straw hats on the boat with an awkward smile that was even worse than crying.
"Everyone, that's it..."
"If there was really that kind of seafood fruit on the island, Anne would have found it soon, and we never doubt this!"
"but……"
But what happened, Alu couldn't continue to say anything, so he had to look at Komatsu in a little embarrassed manner.
"But Anne will definitely search all the delicious food and seafood fruits!"
"It will definitely be!"
"At that time, we don't know whether each of us can get one."
Komatsu next to him was sad and explained to everyone.
I don't know how many times this is. That guy Annie always acts like that. When it comes to this critical moment, she likes to take the lead. Then, she always has a way to find the target food first with the amazing intuition of the foodie.
And then...
Then there will be nothing else.
Because, as long as those delicacies can be eaten by her and make her feel delicious, she will definitely pick them all up, grab them all, and collect them in advance, and it is the same level that no one can leave behind, which others can never eat again.
And according to that little guy, it is: 'They are not familiar with others, why should I think about them?'
Of course, besides that kind of words, there must be a face of disgust.
(lll¬▽¬)
"Anyway, that's probably the case."
Komatsu and Alu have already had a deep understanding of this.
But in many cases, they have to rely on the other party’s magical power to obtain those delicacies, so they can only keep hurting and happy.
"Is that true?"
"But……"
"She will definitely leave Chopper with the treatment, right?"
After listening to Komatsu’s revelations and revelations, Nami was also a little surprised.
However, when she thought about the events of her time on Hanklira Island and the sweet fruits she hadn't even been able to eat, she quickly felt relieved.
Others may not know, but if it were that little guy Anne, maybe she would really do that kind of hateful thing, right?
"This is OK!"
"No matter what, the portion of Choba's treatment is definitely guaranteed."
Holding his arms, Alu nodded, not thinking Anne would be so bad.
In fact, in his opinion, if the seafood fruit yields enough, the little guy Anne would have left some for all of them to taste in addition to leaving Chopper with the treatment portion.
Just her pocket that can hold anything, even if it really stays, it will definitely be just a small part. No matter what, it will definitely not be too much.
"Then it's all right!"
"Hurry up, everyone prepare!"
Luffy didn't have time to mind the problems that Aru, Komatsu and others were worried just now, but instead waved his arms and gave orders.
"Frankie!"
"Prepare two small boats for us!"
"I went ashore with Nami, Chopper, Zoro, and Robin to find seafood fruits, and the others were on standby on the boat!"
"Everything is better!"
"We can't count on Anne all. If she can't find it, then Chopper can only count on us!"
"besides!"
"If we were faster, we might be able to find it first?"
Covering his straw hat on his head, which was almost blown away by the sea breeze, and looking at the island getting closer and closer, Luffy began to prepare for the final landing.
"Ha ha!"
"That's right!"
"Only Chopper has seen the illustrations of seafood fruits among you, and just so happens that I have seen the photos among the three of us. I think Annie must not recognize the seafood fruits, right?"
"Maybe we really have a chance to find it first than her?"
Seafood fruit is not the best ingredient on that island. It is just an ordinary fruit that just treats Chopper's deep-sea heat. Therefore, Alu also believes that Anne will probably be attracted by other better foods, rather than the seafood fruit?
"yes!"
"I don't even recognize the seafood fruits, and Annie will definitely not recognize them!"
"Very good!"
At this time, Komatsu also reacted.
After all, there are many kinds of food and fruit trees on the island. It may be a bit difficult to find the fruit without knowing it.
"Stop guessing!"
"Everything is ready, we are ready to put down the boat!"
Luffy didn't care about that much. Seeing that Chopper's situation was getting worse and worse, he didn't want to wait for a moment.
