One Piece: Heart Set Sail

Snow and Luffy were summoned to Nine Snakes City. To their surprise, Snake Princess actually told them an unspeakable past.

"Didn't you say you know the meaning of this mark? Tell me." She Ji took off her clothes, revealing the shocking mark.

"I was wrong. He just looks like the mark on a friend of mine." Luffy said.

Xue didn't speak, and kept listening to She Ji talk about the past events of their three sisters.That past was their most painful memory. After hearing it, Xue couldn't help but choked up. This is what the world's nobility is like. Maybe his mother can change the rules as a king, but slaves have always been private property, even if they are kings. No right to interfere.How can I save people? I can help one, I can help two, but I can't help countless.

"The reason why you misread the mark on me and mistakenly thought it was the same as the mark on your friend is because in the fourth year after our three sisters were sold to Mary Joa, there was a fishman named Fisher Tai. Ge, he climbed up the Red Earth Continent with bare hands, sneaked into Marijoa where the Celestial Dragons were, and tried his best to cause earth-shaking. It was he who liberated all the slaves at that time, and he was our sisters’ great benefactor." Snake Girl said this. , the three sisters couldn't help but shed tears: "Later he established the Sun Pirates, and in order to cover up the flying dragon's hooves, he printed a similar logo of the Sun Pirates."

Snow had never heard of this person before, and she was really impressed. How many people in this world dared to challenge the iron laws of the Celestial Dragons? The only person Snow knew was Luffy. After hearing Fisher... Only when I heard Tiger's name did I realize that there was such a hero.

"To add to the fun, the Tianlong people let us eat the Sweet Fruit and the Snake Fruit. We also relied on the power of these fruits to deceive the people. Only in this way can we stay on this island. Do you think we were slaves? ?”

Luffy sighed: "What are you talking about? I told you, I hate the Celestial Dragons."

"Luffy is right, most of the Celestial Dragons are unreasonable bastards." Snow couldn't like it even after staying in the Holy Land for five years. It was probably because of this decadent atmosphere and their inhumane way of doing things. Bar.

Snake Girl finally opened her heart and smiled at Luffy: "Don't you still have a wish? Tell me your destination and I will send you sailing."

"Really?!"

"Thank you so much!!!" Luffy couldn't be too happy, he could finally return to his friends!Xue couldn't restrain her excitement either. Although she hadn't seen them for only a few days, she didn't think about them every moment.

Snake Princess held a grand banquet on Daughter Island and invited Luffy and Snow to attend. After eating and drinking, she followed Granny New and sat on the balcony to drink tea.Even though the old lady has retired, she pays special attention to practical matters: "Although Snake Princess is a Shichibukai, she is now facing the crisis of being deprived of her title."

"What? So she is also one of the Shichibukai?!" Luffy was surprised.

It's okay for Xue, she actually knew it earlier, but what's going to happen if she wants to be deprived of her title?She cast her doubtful eyes on Granny New.

"This is because the Shichibukai received a forced summons from the government to start a war with the Whitebeard Pirates."

"What?!" Luffy and Yuki said in unison, the former's pupils widened: "What, what, what is going on? The government actually wants to go to war with the Whitebeard Pirates?!"

Xue frowned. This meant that all the Shichibukai had received a forced summons. There was a high probability that a war would break out, and so many Flamengos would also go, as well as Brother Ace...

"The government has begun to provoke. The Whitebeard Pirates will never allow their own people to die. However, knowing this, the Navy still announced that it would kill Whitebeard's outstanding subordinate Portcas D. Ace. Carry out a public execution." Granny New said slowly, but the hearts of those who listened were already filled with waves.

"What if they kill Brother Ace?! Brother Ace is arrested?! I don't know at all..." Xue recalled the last time she saw the big boy, when she parted from Kendala, the government wanted to Kill him. This is a good friend who once fought side by side. They have known each other a long time ago. Can she watch him be executed?

Luffy was even more uneasy: "They want to kill Ace!! That's my brother!! My brother!! No, I have to save him!!!"

"Luffy, Ace is your brother?" Xue heard it for the first time, and it seemed a little unbelievable. But after thinking about it carefully, there are really a lot of similarities between the two people. They both have the same nerves and the same personality. Warm-hearted.

"Xiaoxue, do you know Ace too?"

"Yes, we have known each other for a long time. That day he asked Marco to take me to the sky. That was the first time I met him. After that, our pirate group landed in a kingdom called Kendala. It was he who fought side by side with us and saved the world. That place." For Yuki, Ace was one of the few good friends besides the pirates.

Now we are in a dilemma, should we go to the Chambord Islands to join our friends, or should we go to Impel City Prison to save Ace? ?Granny New told the two that there was still a week left before the execution, but the sailing time was only enough to reach one destination.

"My friends will forgive me for taking a detour." Luffy took out a small piece of paper from his straw hat: "This is Ace's life card. It was ten times as big as this when I got him. It shows that his current situation is really bad.”

"In this case, I think Brother Luo and the others will also support my choice. Luffy, I will go to Impel Down with you. We must rescue Brother Ace. I will not watch him be executed." Snow firmly said Because of your own choice, it doesn't matter even if you meet up with your friends later.

"Are you two crazy?" Granny New said in disbelief: "Can you imagine how big a war it was? Like two ants jumping into the storm, they may not be able to do anything, and they will be killed. The storm bounces back!”

Snow and Luffy still didn't change their minds: "No matter what the outcome is, we have to go. We won't sit idly by while watching Ace's life in danger!!"

"For the current plan, you can only go to Snake Princess. He has just refused the summons of the Shichibukai. If you want to enter Impel Down City, this may be the only way." Granny New finally gave up trying to persuade them both.

"Really? Then I'll beg her now!" Luffy ran towards Snake Girl's room anxiously.But as luck would have it, at this moment, someone came to report that She Ji was sick!

"How come it's at this time..." Xue couldn't let go: "Grandma Niu, let's go and take a look."

When they arrived at Snake Girl's room, Granny New judged at a glance that Snake Girl was suffering from some illness, so she asked Luffy to talk to Snake Girl alone: ​​"Love is like a storm, Snake Girl, she is lovesick!"

Snow was shocked. She never expected that a generation of pirate empress would fall in love with such a crazy Straw Hat boy: "Luffy is really a magical being."

What is unexpected is that Snake Princess agreed to Luffy without hesitation. The Nine Snakes Pirates' ship sailed out of the harbor overnight. Snake Princess looked at Xue: "Luffy's words can be hidden in my cloak, but you What to do?”

Yuki was worried, this was indeed a problem, so she briefly explained her abilities to the Nine Snakes Pirates, and there happened to be a crew member whose ability was an animal-type cat. Yuki copied her abilities so that she could become a cat. Hidden in the cloak like a kitten.

After getting ready, the two said goodbye to everyone and set out on the road to Impel Down.After boarding the navy ship, the snow hidden in Snake Girl's cloak did not dare to come out, but Luffy's stomach was either growling or sneezing. Fortunately, Snake Girl was willing to save his image, otherwise he would have been almost exposed.

"I have to eat 100 kilograms of food in one meal. I can't do anything less than this!"

When listening to Snake Princess ordering the navy on board outside the cabin, Snow felt grateful for Luffy. The majestic empress had truly fallen in love.Even the look in Xue's eyes in the room was a little wary, and Xue probably knew why: "Don't worry, I already have my heart set on something, and I'm not interested in Luffy."

"Is it true?!" The empress smiled.

"Of course, the person in my heart is unique and the most powerful in this world." Thinking of Luo, Xue unconsciously raised her lips.

"Nonsense, Luffy is the best!"

"I won't argue with you." Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Xue had only read this sentence in books before, but it was fully reflected in the current situation.

"Xiaoxue, eat quickly. Only when you are full will you have strength!"

"Eat, eat, eat, you can eat the most." Xue is still in the form of a cat, and can only be released from this form after successfully entering the Impel City, although this is a bit tiring.

After sailing for several days, the ship finally entered the gate of Impel Down City. Knowing that the Pirate Empress was coming, the Navy of Impel Down City started a one-stop greeting service.Finally entering the interior, She Ji was told to take Shanghai Loushi handcuffs for routine inspection.

The ability of the sweet fruit petrified the prosecutor and also petrified the phone bug on the wall. It was Snake Girl’s protection regardless of the danger that allowed Luffy and Snow to advance smoothly into Impel Down City: “I really don’t know how to thank you for helping us. Here, it’s enough.”

"You must be careful on the next road, and remember not to cause a commotion, otherwise you will be unable to leave here for the rest of your life." Snake Girl warned her sincerely, hoping it would be useful.

"Thank you, Hancock." Luffy hung upside down on the beam, Yuki lay on Luffy's shoulder, and said goodbye to Snake Princess.

"Ah~" Snake Girl suddenly fell to the ground, causing several people around to look at her hurriedly. Luffy and the two officially started their journey to Impel Down City.

"Let's follow the life card. The direction seems to be down." Luffy opened his palm and watched the small piece of life card moving slowly. Snow couldn't help but feel sad. What is Ace's condition now? He must be seriously injured. .

Snow had maintained her cat form for so long, but she finally couldn't hold on any longer. After returning to her human form, she was still lying on Luffy's back. Who said she didn't have a pair of arms that could be extended to move forward quickly: "Luffy, Why do I seem to hear someone shouting for help?"

"It seems like, maybe someone is being tortured."

"Forget it, let's move on, rescuing Ace is the first priority now."

The terrain here is really complex, like a maze. Finding the way down can even be described as difficult, because the sudden mechanism almost made the two of them go west. The barbed iron blocks fell from high places, and the walls Fortunately, they were able to dodge the sharp arrows in time.

Snow also fell off Luffy's back: "What the hell are these??? Aren't you afraid of hurting your own people?"

"There's someone over there! Who is it?! Stop!!"

"Oops! Someone is coming!" The two of them clung to a huge iron chain in shock. The gravity dropped and the mechanism was turned on. The two jailers fell into the mechanism.

Then the two finally arrived outside the cell full of prisoners. The prisoners inside recognized Luffy and hoped for Luffy's help. They stole the prison key from the guard. Before they could say more, they let out a funny scream. A sound and a commotion came quickly.

"It's a blue gorilla!! Run, little brother! If you are caught, you will be killed!!"

"Blue gorilla?" Luffy and Snow obviously didn't understand. They looked towards the commotion. They saw a guy with a red nose and blue hair. He was being chased by a group of ferocious monsters. Less than ten meters away from them, he killed the escaping man in front of them. The guy was cut in half.

"Hey!!!!" The two of them were shocked at this moment, and they ran away together in a panic. However, the amazing thing was that the guy who was chopped down actually merged into one again, and it seemed that he was a devil fruit user.

"Straw Hat Boy?! Why are you here! Did you hear that I was imprisoned and came to save me?!"

"Oh, it's Bucky."

"Do you know each other?" The three of them ran non-stop, and the conversation did not stop: "Forget it, no matter what, don't worry about your special fate anymore, can you think of a way?!"

Luffy finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Do we have to run away?! Can't we beat them away?!"

"You..." Bucky was speechless, but running away like this was not an option. It would be better to just fight.Just do it, the three of them no longer hesitated, and gave the blue gorilla a beating, which made the blue gorilla confused.
