My partner in One Piece is Esdeath

"Village Chief? I remembered." Mendel looked at Feng and Ling and suddenly realized.

"Morgan did say before that there are a pair of twin sisters on the island. The elder sister has become particularly good at eating for some reason and has almost eaten all the animals on the island. It should be you two."

Feng nodded, "Ling and I are indeed from this island. Where is the village chief now?"

"Morgan..." Mendel hesitated, "He has locked himself in the house for a month."

"A month? Wait." Annan interrupted: "I remember you said you haven't eaten for a month. That Morgan also locked himself in the house a month ago. Why is it all related to the month? What happened during this period?”

A look of horror appeared on Mendel's face: "It's better if you don't know. Thank you for giving us food. Let's leave this island quickly before it gets dark."

"Old man, you are a bit unkind."

Esdeath folded her arms and said dissatisfiedly: "I gave you so much food without asking for any reward. Now I want you to answer a few questions. Can't you even do this?"

"No, I'm afraid you will be in danger." Mendel said quickly, "You are our savior, and the villagers don't want you to get involved."

"Is that so?" Esdeath looked around and at the surrounding townspeople.

"The acting mayor is right!"

"Is such that."

"How can we allow our benefactor to be harmed as well?"

When encountering such a famine incident, we cannot leave it alone no matter what.

Looking at the rosy-faced townspeople in front of me, I thought of the scene of them devouring food before.

Annan sighed and said to Mendel:

"Dr. Mendel, this is not the first time we have dealt with each other. You know our strength. If you have any difficulties, just tell us."

Mendel took a deep breath, "Okay... before I say anything, I want to make it clear that this is the most bizarre thing I have ever seen in my career. You must not be afraid after hearing this."

"Don't worry, we are the navy, we will not be afraid." Annan said.

"Then I'll tell you everything I know," Mendel said.

"It all starts with the legend of the island."

"Legend?" Annan asked curiously.

"There is a legend that has been circulating on the island for a long time." Feng said from the side. "When I was a child, I heard the village chief say that every two hundred years, the demons sleeping underground will wake up and they will crawl out of the soil at night. Come out and eat every living thing on the ground, and they will continue to sleep until all living things are gone.”

"In order to help the people on the island resist evil spirits, God gave the islanders some seeds, and the plants grown from these seeds can resist these evil spirits. So the ancestors relied on these plants to successfully resist the evil spirits underground."

Mendel nodded, "Yes, Morgan was shipwrecked and lived on Plant Island. He established himself on the island with his knowledge, became the head of a village at that time, and adopted the twins."

"With his efforts, Plant Island got in touch with the outside world and gradually turned into a small trade supply point."

"Plant Island gradually became prosperous, and several villages merged into a small town. Morgan naturally became the mayor of the town. Morgan discovered this legend while sorting out ancient books on the island."

"He asked some of the elders who kept these seeds on the island and started researching them. He called these plants specialized plants, but strangely, these plants would wither immediately once they left Plant Island."

"I came to Plant Island a month and a half ago. Morgan invited me to visit the specialized plants he has studied for many years. By the way, you are not the aborigines of this island, and you were not affected by those plants on the way here. Attack?"

"Attack? We did encounter one." Annan thought of those large peas and told Mendel about his experiences on the road.

"That is the weakest type of specialized plants. Don't underestimate these peas. They are much more powerful than the inferior cannons on the pirate ships." Mendel said.

"With my assistance, Morgan's experiments on specialized plants progressed rapidly, and we soon entered the artificial planting stage."

"During this period, the specialized plants repelled several pirate attacks. Morgan and I counted the days, and the day when the devil appeared was coming soon."

"We stored food, closed the port, and waited for the devil to appear."

"But before the devil came, Morgan suddenly changed his temperament. He locked himself in the house, and we couldn't persuade him to come out."

"At this moment, the devil also emerged from the ground."

"Previous records showed that these demons would only rage for half a month at most, so we only stored food for a month."

"But what I didn't expect were the specialized plants."

"These demonic monsters only come out at night, and the specialized plants run out of energy halfway through their work at night."

According to historical records, the specialized plants would absorb these demon corpses as energy, but for some reason, those demon corpses were stolen by no one. The specialized plants collapsed collectively without the demon corpses as nutrients. Originally, Moore The roots know how to solve the problem, but they are unwilling to come out. We have no choice but to use the food in the granary to provide nutrients to these plants. "

"We have been starving like this for a month, and the devil has not shown any signs of retreating underground. If it hadn't been for your arrival, we really don't know what we would have done."

"Devils that came down from the ground, specialized plants, stolen demon corpses... so many things are integrated into the small Plant Island." Annan touched his chin, "Somehow, it feels familiar."

"That means those demons will come again tonight." Esdeath became interested, "I want to see how powerful these underground demons are."

"It's still some time before dark, let's go see Morgan first." Annan said.

Several people came to Morgan's residence under the leadership of Mendel.

When Annan opened the door, he saw a sloppy man wearing a pan on his head.

It feels like... to Annan...

"Waibibabu?"

The sloppy man said something incomprehensible to everyone.

"Wai Bi Wai Bi."

Mendel replied with something equally incomprehensible.

“are you good malaysia.”

………………

"Hello Marines, I'm Morgan."

After a brief exchange with Mendel, Morgan sat on the sofa and spoke lazily to several people.

"Thank you for saving everyone."

"Let's not say any more pleasantries."

Annan got it straight and asked: "What's going on with those demons? Why haven't they returned underground after a month? Why are you unwilling to go out to solve those problems even when everyone begs you? Also, what is the pan you are carrying on your head?" What do you mean?"

"Ah, Major Annan. You have a lot of questions. Let me answer them slowly."

Morgan said slowly.

"The reason I carry the pan is because those demons only eat people's brains, and wearing the pan will protect my head if the town falls."

"Plants, demons, brain-eating...what a PVZ."

The corners of Annan's mouth kept twitching.

"You really think you're Crazy Dave."
