"Ah! Ace~"

The boy who was still desperately running for his life immediately stopped suddenly after seeing Ace. He stood in front of Ace and held Ace's hand tightly.

"How did you..."

Ace looked at Luffy with some confusion, he was a little curious as to why he met Luffy here.

"Don't run away... Straw hat boy! Let me give you a stick!"

Just when Luffy and Ace reunited, a somewhat frustrated female voice came from the crowd in the distance.

"Ah! No! Stop chasing me!"

Luffy looked at the figure walking out of the crowd and suddenly felt a chill on his back. Only then did he remember the fact that he was being chased.

"Ace, let's talk again when we have a chance."

Luffy held the straw hat tightly on his head and ran towards the front of the street.

"Damn you kid..." Within a few minutes, Yamato, holding a mace, walked out of the crowd and noticed Ace standing in a daze at the door of the restaurant. "Ace, have you seen a man with a helmet on his head?

Straw hat brat?!"

"Ah! You mean Luffy! He ran over there just now..."

Ace held an uneaten strawberry pie in his hand and pointed the way for Yamato.

"Thanks! Ace!" Yamato nodded slightly in the direction of Ace's finger, then picked up the mace in his hand and chased forward. "Damn brat, I must make you quit completely today.

Get rid of your addiction."

"Um?!"

Only then did he realize that he seemed to be cheating on his younger brother, Ace, and his expression suddenly changed.

"No! Yamato! Don't leave yet. I think there must be some misunderstanding between you."

Ace wanted to grab Yamato's hand, but his belly was too big, and he could only watch the opponent disappear at the end of the road.

"Damn it! Hey! Share the strawberry pie left by the boss with everyone! This is the money for the strawberry pie~"

Ace couldn't care about the strawberry pie at this time. He took out a wad of money from his trouser pocket and threw it to the restaurant owner, and then entered the crowd on the street.

“Thank you for your patronage~”

The restaurant owner looked at the wad of bills in his hand, with tears in his eyes and a slight smile on his lips.

"Damn it...it's impossible to move forward like this!"

With a shy stomach, Ace moved awkwardly among the crowd, and finally came to a corner in anger and started doing push-ups.

"...98! 99! 100! That's it!"

As Ace quickly completed a hundred push-ups, under the stunned eyes of passers-by, his huge belly turned into eight-pack abs.

"Brother, how did you do it?"

"Brother, can you watch me too?"

"Would you like a handsome guy to be my fitness instructor? It's a personal one~"

After Ace regained his figure, dozens of fat men and women surrounded him and kept asking him for advice.

"Sorry! I have something urgent right now, but I'll tell you when the time comes!"

Ace jumped directly from the ground, ignoring the obstruction of the crowd around him, and then merged into the flow of people advancing on the street.

"Wait for me! Yamato! Luffy!"

Ace shouted anxiously as he kept moving forward.

"What...Team C has also lost its target. Don't worry, I will be on the scene soon."

At the end of the street, Tatsuki, who was trying his best to guide Zoro forward, was anxiously wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. Since the defeat of Team B of monitor Yamato, Team C, which was used to monitor Fire Fist Ace, also

She failed, which was something that troubled her very much. Now she had to leave and find one of Yamato or Ace to handle everything properly before the situation completely got out of control.

"Oh! You're not running that way! You're running to the left!"

However, just when Dusky took the phone bug to report to the other teams, Zoro lived up to everyone's expectations and took the wrong path again.

"Forehead……"

Zoro felt helpless as he listened to Dasqi's words behind him... He was obviously walking to the left!

At the moment when Zoro was stunned, a boy wearing a straw hat ran out from the street in front of him.

"Get away!"

The boy shouted loudly while looking back at the enemy behind him.

"road……"

Zoro looked at the boy in front of him in surprise. Before he could call out the boy's name, he collided with him fiercely.

"it hurts……"

The miserable Dasqi fell to the ground again, but fortunately this time her glasses fell in front of her eyes, and she found them quickly.

"Ah! This matter is completely broken..."

Dasqi used her trembling hands to pick up the glasses with only half of the lens left, stubbornly supported on the frame.

"Luffy, why are you so anxious?"

Zoro ignored Tashigi who fell down and asked Luffy who knocked him down.

"Ah! It's Zoro! Something bad has happened. That person...that person is chasing me!"

Luffy grabbed Zoro's collar and said with a look of horror.

"that person?!"

Although Zoro didn't know who the person Luffy was talking about was, it was enough for him to know that he must be Luffy's enemy. Zoro kicked Luffy away who was holding his collar, and then pulled out

He picked up the knife from his waist and stared seriously at the trembling streets with heads.

"Asshole! Kid..."

Then he saw Yamato walking out of the street holding a mace.

"Huh!!"

Zoro looked at Yamato walking out on the street, his hand holding the knife trembling.

"No! Zoro! Help me block her here for a while..."

Luffy said as he picked up the straw hat that fell on the ground and ran forward without looking back.

"Are you a human? I will kill you sooner or later!"

Zoro listened to Luffy's words and roared angrily.

"Forget it, just let me feel the difference in strength."

After Zoro complained about Luffy, he looked seriously at Yamato in front of him.

"Sorry! I don't have time to play with you now..."

Without even looking at Zoro, Yamato drifted past Zoro like a gust of breeze, chasing Luffy forward who could no longer hide among the crowd and kept running towards the pier.

"call……"

Zoro, who briefly faced Yamato directly for a few seconds, was already covered in cold sweat. A casual glance from the other party sent him falling into the ice cave.

"Sure enough, I still need three knives."
