After arriving in Gaya, an island that looks like a resort appears in front of everyone. Luffy and Zoro decided to land on the island to find out the news, and Nami followed them out of fear that they would cause trouble.

"Then I'm going to buy some clothes and collect some information on the way back." Robin jumped on the edge of the boat and invited Alicia, "Miss pink hair, do you want to come with us?"

"Thank you for the invitation, but I can't." Alicia looked at the town and smiled, her smile not reaching her eyes. "If I meet a certain guy, maybe I will get into trouble."

"That's really bad." Robin chuckled and jumped off the Merry.

"If I were stronger, strong enough to defeat that guy..." Alicia muttered to herself with a bad expression as she watched Robin's leaving figure.

"Little Alicia, would you like a cup of hot tea?" Sanji asked Alicia on the deck.

"Okay, I'll trouble you, Sanji." Alicia let the smile return to her face, as if the unhappiness in her heart didn't exist.

While waiting, the people who had inquired about the news finally came back. Luffy and Zoro were still injured. Nami got angry at Alicia as soon as she heard the word "empty island" until Robin returned to the ship with Gaya's map. According to the map, Luffy and others decided to find the man who was expelled from Gaya Island, Wenbrand Kulik.

"Is this here? That...that place where who is?" Luffy looked at the houses on the island and marveled, "It looks so cool!"

The owner of the house was not at home, so the group started to look around after getting off the boat.

"Rolando, the big talker?" Nami picked up the album that was casually placed on the tree stump and flipped through it curiously.

"It's such a familiar name. I saw it when I was very young." Sanji recalled, holding a cigarette in his mouth.

"Have you seen it when you were a kid?" Nami was confused and checked the cover of the album again and again, "But Sanji, it says Beihai Published on it."

"Ah, I was born in Beihai, didn't I tell you?"

Everyone was surprised that Sanji was born in the North Sea. Sanji himself felt that it didn't matter where he was born, and instead told the story of Rolando.

After listening to this story with a bit of absurdity and black humor, the group met Wenblan Kulik who crawled out from the bottom of the sea. He fainted due to diving sickness and was carried into the house to receive treatment from Chopper. After Kulik woke up, Luffy, who didn't know how to beat around the bush, asked him directly how to get to the sky island. Couric laughed self-deprecatingly and did not hesitate to tell what he knew.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Couric, and they listened quietly to him telling about his ancestor, Wenbrand Rolando. Of course, there were exceptions. Sanji sat aside in silence, his usual glib expression was nowhere to be found on his face at the moment. He lowered his head as if to separate himself into an independent space.

Alicia, another exception, held up her arms and was slightly distracted, her eyes falling on Sanji. Sanji seemed to be aware of it. When he turned his head and met Alicia's gaze, he immediately smiled.

"..." Normally, Alicia might have smiled back, but at this moment she stared at Sanji's smiling face for a few seconds, frowned and looked away without saying a word.

"Ah..." Sanji was stunned, biting the cigarette butt and lowering his head again. I couldn't tell anything from his expression, but deep down I felt baffled, wondering if I was being disliked.

From the diary left by Rolando four hundred years ago provided by Couric, the group finally had more information related to the Sky Island. With the information given by Couric, they also had an idea of ​​how to get to the Sky Island. clue.

The best time to go to Sky Island is tomorrow. Kulik reminded Luffy and others that they must catch a guide bird before setting off, otherwise there will be no way to find the rising current in the south.

"Ah, I won't go, I'm so sleepy." Alicia said and lay down on the ground.

"It's really scary. I'm actually used to her being so careless." Nami rolled her eyes and called for the others to set off. "We'll take Kentaro with us."

"Yeah." Alicia waved casually with her eyes closed, "Have a nice trip."

Not long after Luffy and the others left, Bellamy and his brothers, who had attacked them in Devil Town during the day, came to the island with ill intentions. The purpose of this group of people is to snatch the gold nuggets that Couric salvaged from the seabed.

For Couric and his orangutans and orangutans, it is not a problem to deal with Bellamy's group of boys. The troublesome one is Bellamy.

"Hey, uncle."

"Did it wake you up?" Couric looked back at Alicia, who was standing leaning against the door frame at some point, and said, "I'm so sorry, I will deal with these guys as soon as possible."

"No, I just stay here to wait for the trash fish that comes to my door to extinguish my fire." Alicia pressed her finger bones with a blank expression, "Isn't this just right? I don't like to leave negative emotions to My friends."

Bellamy laughed wildly, not taking Couric and Alicia seriously at all. Soon, his laughter stopped. Without the fancy skills of the past, Alicia's attacks were simple and crude. The fist she waved was filled with wind and hit Bellamy's stomach at an extremely fast speed.

"How is it possible-" Bellamy choked out a mouthful of blood, but it wasn't over yet. Alicia caught up with his beaten body, grabbed him and threw him to the ground. Veins popped up on the back of her hands and she punched the flesh.

It wasn't until Bellamy was almost bloody that Alicia loosened her fist and straightened up. She shook off the blood on the back of her hands and looked at Bellamy's group of boys.

"So? Who else among you wants to grab the gold nugget?"

Seeing Bellamy on the ground with no good piece of meat on his body, everyone shook their heads wildly in unison.

"It's such a pity, I haven't even had enough of it." Alicia glanced at Bellamy who showed no resistance to the beating with a look of pity on her face, and waved to the group of boys, "But it doesn't matter, the bad energy in her chest has been vented anyway. Yes. Hey, please leave all valuables on your body and on the boat, and then you can leave."

A group of people did not dare to resist at all, and obediently left food and scattered valuables on the shore. They carried the unrecognizable Bellamy and quickly boarded the ship, disappearing as quickly as possible.

"...Thank you?" Couric braved a cold sweat and tentatively thanked Alicia, but the other party waved her hand indifferently.

"Oh, no, no need. I just want to thank you for not stopping me. Thanks to that bastard, I feel comfortable both physically and mentally now."

Couric: The way you keep your body and mind comfortable is really unique.

All in all, there was no damage to either the Merry or Couric's house, although there appeared to be signs of a fight outside the house. When Luffy and the others returned to Kulik's house with the guide bird, none of them knew what happened on the island during the time they were out. Only Sanji, the more sensitive member of the team, looked back and forth between Kulik and Alicia, who was sleeping soundly.

"I always feel that the way Uncle Chestnut Head looks at little Alicia has become a little subtle. Is it an illusion?"
