"Damn it..." Alicia removed her shield and struggled to climb out of the snowdrift. The original footprints have been re-covered, and they can only rely on the mini map to find Luffy.

After Alicia helped the helpless cub Labon dig out its family, she trudged on the snow with difficulty, relying on the small blue dots representing teammates on the mini-map. At the location of the first little blue dot, she dug out Sanji who was buried under the snowdrift.

Alicia held Sanji steady and looked at Luffy who jumped down from above.

"Alisha——"

"Luffy."

"How's Sanji?"

"Ah..." Alicia glanced at the cook's cheeks that were red from the cold and there were several blood stains on his body, and sighed sadly, "I lost consciousness, but it won't be a big problem after seeing the doctor."

"I..." Luffy held down his straw hat and lowered his head.

"What? Do you mean to say that this is your dereliction of duty? But Luffy's current mission is to protect Nami. This is the consensus of all of us, right?"

"Okay." Luffy quickly put that frustration behind him, "Then let's take Nami to a doctor quickly."

Alicia weighed the weight in her hands, "Where's Nami?"

"She's up there."

Returning to the place where Luffy put down Nami, he put Nami on his back again, and the four of them continued towards the mountain. Not far away, Wapol and two of his men were looking at the four men maliciously.

"Straw hat guy, it seems your comrades are almost dead."

Alicia handed Sanji to Luffy, and the priest costume faded away and turned into a hot magician.

"Alisha?"

"Can't you see that we are in a hurry?" Alicia raised her hand and showed a grumpy face after her patience ran out, "Ascending gravity——"

Purple-black spheres appeared above the heads of Wapol and the others, pressing them into the ground with huge gravity. The sound of dislocation of their bones, which could not bear the gravity, could still be heard vaguely.

The ominous sphere dispersed, and Alicia took Sanji on her shoulders again. The road to the top of the mountain was still long.

"What a surprise. Seeing Alisha suddenly change into a girl, I almost forgot that you are not actually a boy."

"There is no other way. The only way is to change back now." After Alicia finished speaking, she raised the staff she used as a crutch. A beam of flame burned at the top, slightly dispelling some of the chill.

Luffy grinned stupidly, the only flame in the ice and snow filled him with energy, "Hey, can't you make the flame bigger?"

"This is the only skill I have that can create flames now, so be content."

"Alisha's burning fruit is so useless..."

"Believe it or not, I lit your straw hat on fire with this flame?"

Luffy was afraid that Alicia would really burn his precious straw hat, his eyes wandered, and he pretended to be stupid and tried to fool Alicia with a new topic.

"That's right! Let's call Sanji up. Maybe he'll get better immediately if he sees you like this!"

"Don't wake him up. I'm just afraid of his appearance, so I dress up as a boy every day."

"What does it matter? We are obviously all partners."

"Don't pout and act willful, it's not cute at all, okay?"

"I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King!"

"I'm not asking you that."

While the two were bickering, the mountain peak was right in front of them.

"Is this here? You can't see the top." Luffy looked up at the tall mountain peaks, "The doctor is right up there."

"Sanji will also rely on you from now on. I will try my best to ensure your strength. Are you ready, Luffy?"

Luffy nodded firmly, tightened the clothes tied around Nami's waist, and then took Sanji and hung it on his body.

"Time acceleration (distorting time in a certain area, obtaining a gain that increases the recovery speed of one's own skill cooldown)." Alicia's staff emitted blue light that enveloped her and Luffy. In an instant, Luffy could clearly feel it. Something was different, as if his time was different from the time around him. Has the wind and snow slowed down? No, it seemed like his own time had sped up.

Realizing this, Luffy climbed up to the top of the mountain with all his strength. He was left far behind, and Alicia, who had switched back to the role of a priest so that she could buff her friends, twitched the corners of her eyes and sighed.

"Even if there is acceleration, it's too fast... Should I be called Monkey D. Luffy?"

The higher you go, the faster the wind and the blizzard become. Luffy gritted his teeth and tightened his fingers on the edge of the rock.

"Alisha, fire——"

"I can't make fire now, cough cough - Luffy, don't talk to me, I'm in trouble too!" Alicia choked out the cold wind and hung on the cliff of the mountain, trying to open her eyes and being covered by the snowstorm. Be careful and replenish the invalidated buffs for yourself and your friends.

"Ah! It hurts!"

"cure."

"Oh, I'm fine."

"Please shut up, save the energy to speak and continue crawling for me."

"Whoa! Sanji fell!"

"..." Alicia, Alicia really wants to get off work.

Even with the priest skill buff, after climbing to the top of the mountain, the four weak, sick and disabled people still looked tortured.

"I hate 996...the hand of healing..." Alicia, who was almost frozen to death, retained her last bit of consciousness and threw the blood-enhanced cross on the ground before closing her eyes.

"Doctor..." Luffy followed closely behind, bearing the weight of Nami and Sanji.

When Alicia opened her eyes again, the old lady Doctor Dolly, holding a wine bottle, stood beside her bed and laughed like a witch.

"Oh? Did the little girl wake up first?"

"After all, my problem is the easiest." Alicia was not surprised at all that the other party saw that she was a girl. It was easy for a doctor to find out a person's true gender.

"It's true, the frostbite is completely healed." Doctor Dolly grabbed Alicia's face to confirm, "Little girl, are you happy?"

"Well, I'm so happy to be off work!" Alicia freed her face from the clutches of the old lady, wrapped herself up in quilt and rolled on the hospital bed. "I announce that I will officially start my vacation! Ah, by the way By the way, please keep the matter of me being a girl a secret, thank you."

Doctor Dolly was speechless and choked, but snores could be heard on the hospital bed, "...you fell asleep too quickly, didn't you?"

Alicia, who was determined to sleep until eternity, seemed to be sewn into the bed. She was sleeping when the other friends woke up; she was sleeping when Luffy and Sanji were chasing each other with the reindeer Chopper; she was sleeping when the resurrected Wapol returned to the castle and committed mischief, even Wapol was killed by Luffy She was still sleeping when the shooting stars formed in the sky.

"Do you think you are hibernating? You idiot!" Nami grabbed Alicia's ears and pulled her out of the warm bed in a menacing manner. "Get up quickly and get ready to run away!"

Alicia was drowsily dragged out by Nami. As soon as she left the room, the cold air that came to her face made her shiver, and she completely woke up.

"Nami, I haven't put on my shoes or coat yet, I'm going to freeze to death!"

Alicia rushed back to the room like a gust of wind, put on her shoes, and wrapped herself tightly in her coat. Then she followed Nami and Vivi, who arrived at an unknown time, dragging Sanji, whose back bones had not healed, to the outside of the castle.

Luffy, who didn't know how to give up, reluctantly extended an invitation to Chopper the reindeer to go to sea together outside the castle.

"No."

"Why not? Being a pirate is obviously very fun."

"Because...because I'm a reindeer!" Chopper yelled at Luffy with self-denial, "I have horns, hooves, and a blue nose! Although I really want to be a pirate, I I'm not your kind, but a monster! A being like me can't be your companion!" Chopper's voice gradually weakened, looking sad, "So... I'm very grateful to you, thank you for inviting me. Although I want to stay here, and I can always see you again in the future. If you miss me, come here—"

"Stop being so verbose! Let's go!" Luffy interrupted Chopper's tirade and decisively made the final decision.

Seeing Chopper with tears in his eyes, everyone smiled tacitly, knowing their decision.

"Oh!"

then--

"Yah! I feel so good!" Luffy shouted, waving his arms in the wind. "Hey, do it again!"

"Idiot, we are about to set sail." Nami.

"I thought I was dead this time." Usopp.

"Where is this?" Sanji.

"Sanji, are you awake?" Weiwei said.

"Snowflakes, reindeer, sleigh... It feels like I have become Santa Claus." Alicia let out a breath and looked at the reindeer running ahead with the reins tied, leaning lazily on the sleigh. "Ah, when I wake up, I have an extra partner, and my whole body is full of motivation for paddling."

The Guzi Island behind Meili is decorated with pink snowflakes, full of beauty and romance. Chopper, the newly boarded ship's doctor, sat at the stern of the ship and stared at the island bathed in pink. His eyes showed reluctance for his hometown and the expectation of adventure at sea.
