I have two Zanpakuto

There is a sentence in Peach Blossom Spring that goes like this: At first it was very narrow, but then it became passable. After walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly became open.

You Xi followed the bearded dwarf through the black forest. There were black trees all around and the ground was hot red soil. It is worth mentioning that these black trees had no leaves. Each black tree was bare from the trunk to the branches.

And very smooth.

Walking along the road, the trees are arranged in a disorderly manner. This is a very pure and primitive island.

To sum up, not many people come to the islands here to mine these black trees.

This made You Xi a little confused.

"Mitt."

"Huh?" Mitt turned his head and looked at You Xi.

"You just said that the black tree can produce those poisons... uh, a panacea, right?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Mitt looked at You Xi in confusion.

"If that's the case, then this black tree should be... a relatively precious thing, right?"

Mitt understood: "Are you asking why no one comes here?"

You Xi nodded.

"Hmm..." Mitt thought for a moment and looked at the bearded dwarf, "Maybe it's because... there are many people like him on this island."

You Xi was stunned, then shocked.

He didn't understand what Mitt meant.

Although this bearded dwarf is a bit stupid, his strength is undoubtedly very strong in the first half of the Grand Line.

After all, many pirates don’t even know how to use Haki and yet they rush towards the Grand Line.

You Xi believed that he did not stay on some islands for too long, and the route he chose was not able to take any other route because Yui had to save Mai.

This route should be the one with the least resources among the many routes starting from the entrance of the Grand Route.

After all, in the previous ten islands, because of the Kingdom of Ghana, we basically didn't encounter any other local people or other pirate ships.

Even so, You Xi had only walked half the way.

The first half of the Grand Line, the halfway point of paradise...

If everyone in this village was as strong as this bearded dwarf, then almost 99% of the pirates would not be able to do anything to this island.

and so……

Is this what it turns out to be...

You Xi walked while lost in thought, not noticing that he was about to enter a cave.

"My village is just through the tunnel."

The bearded dwarf said this, picked up a piece of broken wood from the pile of wood at the entrance of the tunnel, took off his clothes and wrapped them in cloth to light the way ahead.

You Xi followed the guidance of the torch and passed through the tunnel.

Then the view in front of me suddenly brightened up, and what came into view was a village made of houses built with red soil in a valley of red soil.

The place where You Xi was standing now was above the village, which was similar to the halfway point of a mountain.

Below is the village of the bearded dwarves.

There are black trees planted everywhere in the village.

There is a spring in the middle of the village, which is connected to the mountain on the other side. There is a waterfall on the mountain. The flow of the waterfall is not fast, but it is enough for the dwarves in this village to draw water for use.

You Xi subconsciously used his Observation Haki to sense that there were hundreds of dwarves in the entire village.

And Mitt was right.

The aura exuded by a man like the bearded dwarf is equivalent to that of at least sixty or seventy people.

Such a village is definitely not something that most pirate groups in the first half of the Grand Line can deal with.

It can be said that the number of people in the entire world who can deal with this village is probably less than one in ten thousand. (Ps. at the end of the chapter.)

And at this moment, You Xi could clearly sense that someone had noticed his investigation.

You Xi felt a little embarrassed and retracted his observation Haki.

This is the disadvantage of the seeing and hearing color. For true masters, seeing and hearing color are mutual.

They can sense each other.

And if you sense someone spying on you, your first reaction would definitely not be that this guy has good intentions...

You Xi was a little embarrassed, but he didn't expect that when he was led down the mountainside by the bearded dwarf and arrived at the entrance of the village, he would be faced with some enthusiastic dwarves.

"Hey, Gru, is this your new friend?"

The bearded dwarf Gru was stunned for a moment, looked at You Xi, and then suddenly reacted: "Yes! You are not my friend! This is the first time we meet today!"

Standing at the entrance of the village was an old man with a white beard and wearing only a pair of shorts, leaning on a walking stick.

The other dwarves who came to greet them were also dressed very coolly.

You Xi looked at Gru speechlessly and asked, "Have you forgotten? You attacked me without saying a word?"

Gru was stunned, and after thinking about it, he always felt that something was wrong.

But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that there seems to be no problem.

Seeing Gru thinking, You Xi said impatiently: "Just tell me whether you were the first to do it?"

Gru touched his head and said, "Okay, it seems, it seems to be true..."

"That's it, look, I didn't blame you, do you want to blame me?"

Gru immediately waved his hands: "No, no, that's too much."

Then Gru apologized to You Xi.

You Xi naturally laughed and said that it was okay.

The three women at the side twitched their lips.

I always feel that You Xi is becoming more and more of an asshole. He knows that the other party is a bit stupid, but he still plays tricks on the other party.

Gru's attitude made the people in the dwarf village feel relieved. Then, You Xi was invited by the white-haired and white-bearded dwarf old man to enter the dwarf village.

The geographical environment of the Dwarf Village is very ordinary, and basically everything you see is either red or black.

The only different colors are probably the village ponds that wash down and reflect the blue sky.

The old man was the chief of the dwarf village. You Xi was not at all surprised by this result.

after all……

This old man was the most powerful person in his perception.

(ps: Oda himself said that the total population of Alabasta is 10 million, and the number of member states of the World Government is more than 170. Of course, it is impossible for every country to have such a large population as Alabasta. If we just take an average of one or two million, the number of more than 170 countries is about 400 to 500 million. But we have to know that there are more than 100 countries in the One Piece world.

If we don't count countries and islands, there are actually more than 170 islands on the Grand Route, not to mention the four seas. Even if we just go by the basic four-fold theory, the total population should be around 2 billion.

Of course, it is very possible that the total population of One Piece world is much higher than this. It is impossible that Alabasta alone has 10 million people, while the entire world has only a few hundred million people? This does not make sense.

Anyway, based on 2 billion, one ten-thousandth is... 200,000...

The Dwarf Village I designed was not that weak at all...)
