Chapter 107 Nami "Joins"
Picking up where we left off, after defeating Buggy the Clown, Goten got hungry, so Luffy decided to have another hearty meal before setting off...
The four arrived at the restaurant, and the three men immediately began to eat heartily without any regard for their image, while Nami counted Buggy the Clown's treasure. Seeing this, Goten kindly asked, "Aren't you going to eat something? After all, once we get to the sea, there might not be any food left!"
After packing up the treasure, Nami smiled at Goten and said, "It's alright, I've already prepared the food, enough for ten people..."
Goten then pointed at Luffy, gesturing for Nami to look in that direction. Following Goten's finger, Nami realized that Luffy had completely looted the food on the table and was still not satisfied, wanting to order more. Fortunately, the restaurant owner had run out of stock, which saved Nami a little bit of her wealth.
After the four had eaten and drunk their fill, they were about to leave when they noticed a small dog barking wildly at the bear-man and his pet lion that Wutian had encountered, seemingly trying to prevent them from entering the shop behind them.
Seeing the vast difference in strength between them, and the puppy showing no fear whatsoever, only to be easily swatted away by the lion a second later, Nami angrily cursed, "Tch, you despicable guy, all you do is bully the weak..."
At this moment, the bear-man taunted, "Hahaha... You overconfident fool, this is what happens to you, Leakey! You might as well destroy this wretched place before going back to see Lord Buggy!"
Upon hearing this, Goten realized that the bear was actually Buggy's henchman, so the guy on the unicycle should be the same...
Just as Goten was pondering, the little dog stood up and charged at Leigh again, biting down hard on Leigh's massive body. However, despite its resistance, Leigh easily shook it off with a flick of its wrist...
The puppy, having been thrown off again, still managed to stand up, wanting to launch another attack. The next second, the lion Riki mercilessly swung its claws down again, and the puppy was about to be in trouble. At this moment, Luffy decisively took action, shouting, "Gum-Gum... Pistol!" and punched the lion from a distance, sending it flying.
It was only then that Nami realized Luffy was actually a Devil Fruit user. As Luffy retracted his arm, the bear man, having been blasted away by the lion Riki, fell to the ground. Looking at the suddenly appearing Straw Hat Luffy, he shouted angrily, "Who dares to attack my great Mochi!"
Luffy cracked his knuckles and said seriously, "Sorry, my body just started moving on its own..."
Upon hearing this, Mochi immediately ordered his mount, Riki, to attack. However, when he turned around, he saw that his giant lion, Riki, had already been tamed by Goten and was performing acrobatics for him. Turning to look at Luffy, Mochi chose to run away without hesitation. Seeing this, Goten picked up the giant lion and threw it at him, shouting, "Your partner is lost! Take it with you!"
-
After chasing away the giant lion, Goten and Luffy checked on the puppy's condition. Goten placed his hand on the puppy and injected a little energy into it, and the puppy recovered completely. Looking at Goten who had helped it, the puppy licked Goten's face in a friendly gesture, and then ran off to check on the shop.
Seeing Goten's actions, Luffy asked curiously, "Goten, you know medicine too? I never knew that..."
Upon hearing this, Wutian explained, "I'm not a doctor. I just used a little of my own energy to help it regain its strength; I wasn't treating its injuries..."
Suddenly, an old man struck Luffy on the head with a club, shouting at him, "You despicable pirates, what do you think you're doing to Shushu!"
Seeing this, Wutian exclaimed that he had done a good job, and asked, "Do you know that little dog? In the end, why is he so determined to protect that shop?"
Upon seeing Goten's childlike appearance, the man instantly doubted his mistake, so he softened his tone slightly and said to Goten, "Sorry, I thought you were pirates..."
Luffy then spoke up, "Actually, we are..."
Seeing this, Goten immediately covered Luffy's mouth and continued to ask, "Speaking of which, you haven't introduced yourself yet, have you? And tell me the story of the puppy..." After saying that, he whispered to Luffy, "Shut up, do you want him to notify the whole village to put out a warrant for your arrest as a pirate?"
After listening to Goten's words, Luffy calmed down. At this moment, the man continued, "I am the village chief here. The little dog is called Shushu. As for that shop, it was opened by Shushu's owner. However, its owner has already... Before leaving, its owner told it that it would definitely come back, which gave it a goal to continue living. So, in order to welcome its owner home, it silently guards this shop all by itself."
Upon hearing this, Goten and the others instantly understood. However, at that moment, a dagger flew from a distance. Zoro noticed it and instantly drew his "Wado Ichimonji" from his waist, successfully blocking it.
Just then, the man on the unicycle came towards them, looked at Luffy and the others, and loudly questioned, "Who dares to mess with the Buggy Pirates! I, Kabaki, will show you what cruelty is!"
Seeing Kabakki riding a unicycle with a long sword in his hand, Zoro decisively chose to attack, immediately equipping himself with three swords. As Kabakki charged, Zoro's "Oni-giri" was ready, but Kabakki suddenly breathed fire from his mouth, forcing Zoro to temporarily jump away to dodge...
Zoro jumped to the other side, and Kabaki immediately pressed his advantage, throwing out four rapidly spinning tops. Zoro easily cleaved all the tops in two with two sword strikes...
Seeing this, Kabakki decisively launched his next attack, leaping high into the air on his unicycle, shouting "Unicycle Suspended Slash!" before plummeting straight down. Zoro, seeing this, took a small step back, and as Kabakki's longsword became stuck in the ground and could not be pulled out, Zoro casually slashed Kabakki to the ground...
After the battle ended, Goten yawned and said to Luffy, "Now that it's over, let's go. There's no reason to stay here any longer, right, Captain Luffy?"
Upon hearing this, Luffy immediately laughed and said, "Great! Let's run, crewmates!" With that, Goten and Luffy rushed towards the dock. Zoro, seeing this, said to Nami, "Grab the treasure and hurry up, or you won't be able to leave later."
Nami was still in a daze when the villagers, unaware of what was happening, started yelling and rushing towards them. Seeing this, Nami immediately grabbed the treasure and chased after Luffy and the others, shouting, "Why are you doing this?!"
Once they reached the sea, the four of them finally caught their breath. At this point, Nami asked, "Why did we suddenly run away? We didn't do anything wrong."
Wutian then said, "Now you know how I got on this pirate ship, right? Since I'm here, I might as well stay put..."
Nami could only stay quiet for the time being, and Luffy's crew temporarily gained a new member...
