At this mont, dozens of kiloters away, on a barren piece of land covered with large tents.
"Why are they taking so long to return? Could sothing have happened to them, Chieftain?"
Inside a significantly larger tent compared to the others, a resolute and battle-hardened man spoke to an elderly figure, who seed frail with age.
The old man lifted his eyes slightly at the words, his voice trembling with age. "You are still too young, Wyper. You lack patience."
After a pause, he continued, "They rely went to hunt down those Blue Sea people who intruded. What could possibly happen?"
Wyper knew he had spoken rashly.
Raki was his childhood friend, and he couldn't help but worry.
It had indeed been a long ti since they left.
But thinking about their strength, Wyper felt sowhat reassured.
Just then, a young girl ca stumbling into the tent.
As she ran, she shouted frantically, "Chieftain! Chieftain! This is bad! Waaaah!"
The mont she entered, she tripped and fell flat on her face.
Wyper sighed helplessly and walked over to pick her up.
"What's wrong, Aisa? What happened?"
He asked as he steadied her.
"Raki and Kamakiri… they…"
Aisa gasped for breath, speaking in broken phrases.
Hearing Raki's na, Wyper imdiately tensed up.
"What about Raki? Aisa, what did you see?"
This young girl possessed an ability akin to Enel's Mantra, though hers was crude and undeveloped. She could only perceive vague impressions.
"Sister Raki... and Kamakiri... they've been captured!"
Aisa finally completed her sentence, but her words sent a shockwave through Wyper.
"What?!"
Just as he exclaid, another figure ca crashing into the tent.
"Wyper! Bad news! Raki and Kamakiri have been captured by a group of Blue Sea people! They're heading towards Angel Island! And Raki… Raki, she…"
The breathless newcor spoke in rapid bursts, and Wyper imdiately recognized him. He had been with Raki's group.
"What?! Kuli! What happened to Raki?"
Seeing that Kuli had returned alone and his words matched Aisa's, Wyper knew this was real.
He was on the verge of rushing out to rescue them but forced himself to calm down and listen to the full report.
"Raki and the others… they seem to be getting tortured!"
The mont Kuli finished speaking, a gust of wind swept past, and Wyper had already vanished.
Along with his gear…
—
Deep within the vast forest.
A massive vine bore an imposing structure.
Inside a grand hall resembling a living room, Enel lay lazily on a sofa, munching on an apple.
He had been watching everything unfold near the White Sea's edge.
Casually, he tossed the half-eaten apple onto the carpet beside him.
One of the nearby priests quickly picked it up and wiped away the stains.
A smirk played on Enel's lips.
The strongest of the priests, Ohm, noticed this and asked, "Has soone powerful arrived?"
Enel chuckled lightly at the question and murmured, "Powerful? Yeah, I suppose they are."
"But no matter how strong they are, they are still just humans! They cannot fathom the greatness of a god!"
"At best, they are rely qualified to be sacrifices…"
—
"Ohhh!!"
With a loud yell, Luffy leaped off the ship.
By now, Vir and his crew had arrived at the shores of Angel Island.
During the journey, Luffy had repeatedly attempted to jump into the White Sea to see if he would drown.
However, the vivid mory of Vir rcilessly using a toilet plunger to smack Smoker and Bon Clay until their faces swelled up stopped him.
After intense internal struggle, he abandoned the idea and quietly stayed on the ship.
Now, seeing that he could finally step onto clouds, he wasted no ti in jumping down.
After securing the ship, the rest of the crew followed.
Nami and the others only intended to stay until their Log Pose was fully charged.
Once it pointed to the next island, they planned to leave imdiately, avoiding trouble as much as possible.
The shoreline resembled any other Blue Sea beach, complete with vegetation, except the sand had been replaced with clouds.
Seeing Luffy land without issue, everyone jumped down excitedly.
After all, it wasn't every day they got to visit such a mystical place.
Soon, only five figures remained on the ship—Vir, two guides, a reindeer, and Robin, who gazed into the distance, lost in thought.
Chopper, perched on Vir's head, yearned to play with Luffy and the others.
But since Vir wasn't going, he chose to stay as well.
Noticing Chopper's eager expression, Vir patted his furry head.
"If you wanna play, just go."
But the mont Vir spoke, Chopper shook his head like a rattling drum.
"No… I'm fine…"
Despite his words, his face still betrayed his longing.
Vir sighed helplessly.
If it weren't for the giant crab that would be arriving soon, aning he had to stay on board, he would've taken the little guy down to play in the clouds already.
Nearby, Raki and Kamakiri crouched together. Raki's body was wrapped in bandages.
Earlier, she had been continuously coughing up blood.
Her face had turned paler and paler.
Yet, she adamantly refused to let Vir approach her.
At this rate, she would succumb to her worsening injuries.
Unable to stand by, Chopper examined her wounds.
Once he determined the extent of her injuries, he quickly treated and stabilized her condition.
His movents were precise and efficient, wasting no ti.
Identify the problem. Solve it instantly.
Raki was stunned.
This little reindeer was actually a doctor?
That was unbelievable.
What shocked her even more was his gentle touch. When giving her an injection, he even softly warned her, "This might sting a little, just hold on."
If it were that other guy, wouldn't he just scatter her ashes already?
When she learned that Chopper was Vir's disciple, her expression beca even more complicated.
What… were these two playing at?
Why was the difference between them so massive?
More importantly, the dicine Chopper used was incredibly potent.
For example, the injection—once administered, her broken ribs imdiately realigned themselves.
The pain vanished as well.
To her, this was simply inconceivable.
How could the Blue Sea have such miraculous dicine?
Looking at the gentle Chopper, she couldn't help but ask, "Did you make this dicine?"
But Chopper's response left her speechless.
"Oh, this? My master just whipped it up casually. He said it only works on weaklings. If soone even a little strong uses it, it won't have any effect."
His innocent tone delivered the most devastating insult.
Raki was left sulking for a long ti.
