To the end of the sea [One Piece]

At the request of the samurai man, Brooke, who had seen his last part/body, took Sanji and Zoro with him, and the three of them went to find his upper body.

"Ena, Nami, can you help me?" Chopper said, "I want to take a sample of the children's sweat for examination."

They readily agreed and collected sweat from each child.

Chopper immediately set up a small table, took out a simple test tube and started doing a reaction test.

At this moment, a child fell to the ground in pain, holding his head and groaning anxiously.

The other children were frightened and tentatively approached him, only to be swatted away.

Eina looked around anxiously and found that the largest children were all holding their heads in pain.

"What's going on? What's wrong?" Nami asked eagerly.

The test tube in Chopper's hand finally reacted, and his face turned gray in an instant.

The child who initially had a manic reaction gradually began to breathe heavily. Chopper walked up to him with a test tube: "Cinder, is there anything you want? What are you doing at this time?"

Cinder struggled painfully and said intermittently: "At this time...first check...then, then..."

"Then what?!" Chopper asked.

"Sugar, candy..."

"You'll get candy..."

The other smaller children were all normal. They said: "Yes, people give us candies every day... everyone likes to eat them."

"That candy is magical, it makes smoke."

"And...after eating it, you will feel very happy..."

Ena's face also darkened for a moment.

"Your name is Teabeard, right?" Chopper carried Sanji's body towards the tied centaur, "What do you know? What exactly does your master want to do?!"

"I'm just patrolling outside. I don't know what's going on inside the institute." Teabeard said, "Do you want to doubt our master?"

"Is that guy really some kind of savior?!" Chopper's eyes filled with tears because of anger, "These children are not sick at all!"

He raised the test tube that turned purple in his hand and shouted angrily: "What he fed those children... was chronic/poison!"

Everyone was shocked!

"These children are secretly ingesting a small amount of poison every day, and now they are chronically poisoned." Chopper said, "Even if this poison is used for treatment, it can only be used by a specific doctor in a very small amount, because Dori My pediatrician has used it, so I know it. But the dosage this owner gave to the children...even if it is used on adults, it has already exceeded the standard!"

Eina clenched her hands into fists and looked at their painful expressions with bloodshot eyes.

"Is it hard? If you need that candy, I'll get it from the research institute!" Luffy said nervously.

"No!" Chopper said, "You can't take that medicine anymore! After one portion, they will want the next one... If this continues, they will die!"

A pile of steel bars suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Ena retracted her fist with anger all over her body, and her face was as cold as she had ever seen before.

Her facial features seemed to have condensed into substantial frost at this moment, and her eyes were burning with dark red anger.

"That's drugs." The veins on the back of her hands were exposed and she was shaking violently. "Using drugs on such a young child... is that person crazy?! No, that's not right..."

"He is not a human being at all!"

+ + +

The oldest children, including Cynder, were starting to lose their minds.

Drool and snot flowed out of their mouths and noses uncontrollably, their eyes were dull, and they began to smash things manically.

"Candy...Give me candy!!!"

Luffy was slapped against the wall by Cinder.

Children of this size didn't think it was anything at first, but when they went berserk they realized the problem.

This power is so amazing that it can be used as a weapon.

Wait, weapons?

Eina gritted her teeth and asked the normal-sized children who were still sane: "Are they this big from the beginning?"

"No, it's not..." the little girl said timidly, holding a smaller child in her arms, "the longer the child is here, the bigger... many people only become that big later..."

Tears burned in her eyes.

"Chopper..." She looked over sadly, and Chopper confirmed her idea with anger.

"The pituitary hormone abnormality is not caused by birth..." He clenched Sanji's hands into fists and said hoarsely, "They were used as experimental subjects... Someone is using these children to conduct giant experiments."

"And, to prevent them from escaping, they were fed poison."

+ + +

The children's riot continued. Since they didn't dare to take action for fear of hurting them, they could only avoid it.

But the huge rocks they threw casually were like powerful cannonballs.

"Get out of the way! I'll do it!" Usopp took out a seed in desperation, "The sure kill - explode the Sleeping Star!"

The smoke dispersed, and the children fell into a slumbering state.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whether it's Caesar Coulan or not..." Eina held the knife at her waist, "Luffy, I'm going to beat him away."

"I, I also want to save these children..." Nami looked at Luffy pleadingly.

"If you want to save them, you have to find the culprit." Chopper said, "Although I also want to beat the owner away, but I am worried that these children will wake up, and I have to stay and take care of them."

"Don't worry." Eina said coldly, "I'll take your share."

Luffy tilted his head: "Well, let's go back to the research institute."

"By the way, we also need to find Luo!" Nami said, "Our bodies need to be exchanged with him!"

In the end, they decided that Nami and Chopper would stay and take care of the children in case they woke up and started rioting again.

Ah, from the outside it looks like they are the bodies of Franky and Sanji.

+ + +

Not far after they walked out, they saw huge footprints in the snow.

"What is this..." Luffy said blankly, "It's so big!"

"Are they the footprints of a snow monster?" Usopp said fearfully.

Eina also looked at the footprints that did not look like humans in surprise, and then there was a huge gunshot behind them.

She turned back suddenly: "Luffy! This is the direction of Nami and the others! Someone has passed by!"

So they immediately turned around and ran back to the shelter they had just taken.

"According to the order of the master, kill the Straw Hat Boy and his entourage and...Tea Beard." The tall, giant-like man stood in front of the tied up Nami.

Nami struggled desperately: "Don't be too proud! Luffy will definitely come and beat you all away!"

"Don't worry." Another man who looked almost exactly like him said, "We, the Snow Twins, will never miss. Your companions will die in our hands one after another."

Nami looked at the huge gun pointed at her in fear, and suddenly heard a long call from the sky.

"Nami——!!"

Luffy and Franky fell from the sky, but accidentally ran straight into a rift in the snow.

"What idiots." The two killers bent down and snorted disdainfully, "You should be proud to die by our hands."

As a killer, his sixth sense suddenly made his hair stand on end, and he turned around with cold hands and feet.

His partner was now on the ground.

A voice came from the wind and snow like a ghost.

"As a killer, you are still far from enough."

"Who is it?!" The man raised his gun in panic, "Where is it?!"

The Snow Twins are already masters among killers and have never failed since their debut.

But this time the opponent could not even be seen.

A sword light slashed through the air, and a deep wound instantly appeared on the man's arm.

"One, never disclose employer information."

Another wound appeared on his ankle.

"Two, never disclose the death list."

A bloody gash appeared on his abdomen.

"Three - never underestimate your opponent!!"

He groaned and fell to the ground, soon bleeding out.

An orange-haired figure appeared in the wind and snow, and Eina sheathed her sword while gasping for breath.

"Sure enough, it's not my body that's not good enough." She was sweating profusely. "And I can't use the Moon Step either. It's so difficult."

The strangulation just now was the result of her complete reliance on her assassin's concealment ability and sword skills. It is the purest contest.

Even because Nami's physical functions couldn't keep up with her own, her strength was greatly weakened.

"Ena!!" Nami shouted in surprise.

Just as she was about to smile at her, her pupils suddenly shrank.

The killer she chopped down at the beginning... unexpectedly stood up at some point! And his attack has already reached his own back!

It's over, she was careless this time.

She also taught others not to underestimate their opponents, but she was slapped in the face.

Mainly, she really underestimated the prediction bias caused by physical strength.

If it were Ikegawa Ena herself, there would be absolutely no room for that move.

But she had misjudged Nami's body, which she was not yet completely familiar with.

At the critical moment, another blade of light appeared out of thin air, and the fish that slipped through the net was easily eliminated before the opponent could attack Ena.

Ena panted for the rest of her life and looked over, her face changed.

The man wearing a white hat stood in the wind and snow, like a tall cedar.

"Trafalgar..." she gritted her teeth, "Why are you here?"

"I just saved your life." He said concisely, which meant that you probably shouldn't talk to him in this tone.

Eina clicked her tongue: "If you want me to thank you, maybe you should return my body to me first. And having said that, if you hadn't changed my body, I wouldn't have been in danger just now."

"Heh." Luo glanced at her and said nothing.

At this time, Luffy had climbed up from a distance and waved to them happily: "Ena! Nami! Hey, Terra Man, you are here too!"

Franky, who had just fallen from Chopper's body, ran away to no one knows where.

"The Straw Hat Master." Luo put the knife on his shoulder, "I have a deal I want to discuss with you."

"what?"

"You may have come to this island by chance." Luo Qingleng's voice was scattered in the wind and snow, "But this island has secrets that can shake up the new world. This is why I am on this island."

"In the new world, there are only two choices if you want to survive."

"One, protected by the Four Emperors."

"Two, keep challenging the Four Emperors."

"Head of the Straw Hat, you must not be someone who wants to be subordinate to others." He raised his head slightly, revealing his sharp eagle-like eyes hidden under the brim of his hat.

"Ah, I still want to be the captain." Luffy grinned confidently.

"Then, form an alliance with me." Luo finally showed an ambitious smile, "I have a plan... If we join forces, we may be able to do it."

Eina's eyes focused on his face.

"I have a battle plan that will bring down one of the Yonko...you'll be interested."

Nami let out a scream.

"Luffy! Don't listen to his nonsense!" She waved with Franky's big hand, "This dangerous guy's words can't be trusted! And joining forces, no matter how you think about it, it's not reliable! Or are you going to fight the Yonko? "

Ena spoke in a low voice.

"You're talking about the Four Emperors." She raised her eyebrows, "Which one is it?"

Luo opened his mouth and said the name.

"[Hundred Beasts] Kaido."

Luffy smiled his signature smile.

"Okay, let's make an alliance.
