I, the Fruit Snatcher

Chapter 18

"Ahhhhhhh……"

Feeling the huge inertia of the Merry speeding down beneath them, Nami and Usopp both felt their hearts in their throats.

"Too fast!"

They looked at the canal in front of them in panic, which was still shrouded in fog and could not be seen at all.

Luffy sat on the sheep's head of the Merry, holding his straw hat and shouting with a smile:

"Rush the duck! Meili! Rush to the Grand Line!"

Qin Lang looked at the slightly nervous Nami with a smile and reassured:

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you."

Under Qin Lang's comfort, Nami's originally nervous mood actually became happy.

Qin Lang is very reliable!

This is the belief that Qin Lang brought to Nami not long after he boarded the ship.

Although Nami has also seen Luffy Compared with the strength of Zoro Sanji, but compared with Qin Lang's calmness and reliability, the three of them were like naughty boys, completely unreliable.

The Meili rushed into the clouds and mist, and the surrounding vision was blurred.

"Hey, why is there a wall in front of me?"

After breaking through the clouds and fog, the companions on the boat were shocked.��At the end of the canal where the Merry was sailing, there was not an endless great route, but a huge black wall!

"Why is there a wall at the end of the canal!"

Nami's face turned pale.

"This time we are dead!"

According to the current descent speed of the Meili, it will hit the wall in about two minutes.

If it collides with that huge wall, there is no doubt that the Meili will be smashed into pieces, and the ship will be destroyed and everyone will be killed.

"Don't be nervous."

Qin Lang stood calmly at the bow, looking at the huge figure:

"That's not a wall, it's a huge whale."

The world's largest island whale.

Raab

"whale?"

Everyone was in an uproar.

"Such a huge whale, could it be a sea king?"

Recalling the sea king they encountered a few days ago, the people who were still frightened swallowed their saliva in unison.

If Qin Lang hadn't used the power of the smoke fruit to throw the entire ship back into the sea from the top of the sea king, they would have died in the mouth of the sea king.

Luffy's eyes lit up:

"Let it be our partner!"

Nami slapped Luffy on the back of the head and said incoherently:

"Luffy! We're going to die on it, and you're still going to invite it to join us? What exactly is going on in your mind?"

"Nami. Don't worry, we're fine."

Qin Lang waved his hand, and his body turned into black smoke, covering the entire Golden Merry.

The people on the ship only felt the hull of the Merry swaying slightly, and then they were shocked to find that the Merry, lifted by Qin Lang's black smoke, actually broke away from the surface of the canal and turned into a flying spaceship in the air!

Qin Lang's voice rang out from the black smoke:

"Luffy, open the sails! The Merry is ready to take off"

"Ah ha ha ha, the Meili is flying!"

Luffy jumped up excitedly, stretched out his arms and opened the sails.

The Meili seemed to have grown wings. In the air, under the support of Qin Lang's smoky body, it deftly bypassed the huge whale Labu intercepting in front. , finally landed safely behind Labu.

Qin Lang gathered up from the black smoke and turned into a human form.

He looked up at the 'little' Labu in front of him, looking at its head covered with scars, and whispered. The fruit communicates with the other party:

"Rab, can you hear me?"

A very young and immature voice sounded doubtfully in Qin Lang's heart:

""You, who are you?"

As the voice sounded, Lab turned his huge body, and his huge whale eyes locked onto the Meili where Qin Lang was.

Lab seemed surprised that someone could talk to him.

"I don't know you! How do you know my name?"

Qin Lang knew that although Lab had lived for more than 50 years, in the long life span of island whales, it was just an underage child.

Although this child looked a little older, he was only about eight years old in human years.

How old is this?

Looking at the new and old bumps on Lab's head, Qin Lang said gently:

"Not only do I know your name, I also know people from the Rumba Pirates, and they told me about you.……"

Rab roared excitedly:

"Woo yeah……"

Rab said excitedly in his childish voice:

"Have you seen them? Where are they? They clearly promised me that they would come back to pick me up!"

……

"Is Qin Lang using the Whispering Fruit to talk to this huge whale? I really want to know what they are talking about."

On the Meili, everyone looked at Qin Lang who was silent with his eyes closed in surprise, and then looked at the huge whale Rabu with an excited face. They were curious about what the two sides were communicating.

……

"them……"

Qin Lang was silent.

After a moment of silence, Qin Lang took a deep breath and finally told the truth that broke Rabu's heart:

"Sorry, Rab. Some of them have been infected by the plague and have been forced to leave the Grand Line. The remaining people encountered the enemy in the Devil's Triangle and were almost wiped out.……"

"Impossible, you lied! They won't die! They promised to come back for me!"

When Lab heard this, tears began to flow from his huge whale eyes, causing the sea surface to surge.

The memory of singing and laughing with the Rumba Pirates in the past kept flashing in the mind of the young whale Lab.

"Chirp, chirp……"

"What’s going on with this little whale? It’s been following our ship!"

"We must have gotten separated from the group of whales.……"

"Captain Yuchi, let's sing a song for this little guy, let's let him see the skills of the Rumba Pirates who can make even a crying child laugh!"

"OK!"

Rabb's favorite song has been lingering in his mind for decades:

Yoohohohoh, Yoohohohoh~

Yoohohohoh, Yoohohohohoh~

……

Binx's wine is sent to you~

I can swim on the wind and waves~

The waves are surging, the sunset is moving~

The birds are singing, cutting through the sky~

……

Conversation before the Rumba Pirates leave

"Rab, wait for us!"

"Our ship will go straight along this sea, and in this way, incredibly, our ship will reach the outside of this red soil continent again, pass through this wall again, and return to this cape!"

"Wait for us! Just be patient for two or three years, and we will be able to see you all again!"

"Yinger, Yinger, Yinger……"

"We will definitely come back for you!"

"Goodbye, Rab!"

"Take care!"

"Lab, let’s go on adventures somewhere else together when the time comes!"

"We are partners!"

"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

"Raab, we will definitely sail around and get back here"

……

"Waiting for us!"
