"you......You are not worthy to be compared with me!"

""Card clip!"

Den Den Mushi said this, and then the call was hung up.

"......"

Time seemed to stop at this moment.

Crocodile's office was terribly silent.

Creak!

The door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and a big bearded man grinned and said

"Mr. Crocodile, someone from the casino downstairs wants to take a photo with you. Do you want to go?......"

Halfway through his words, the man suddenly trembled, his whole body turned cold, and his eyes were filled with extreme fear and terror. Just by being looked at by Crocodile's murderous eyes, he was so scared that he lost all his strength and collapsed to the ground.

"Ahhhhh......"

With a scream, the man finally turned into a dried corpse with all the water absorbed.

Crocodile looked at Luffy's bounty on the table and said in a very low and angry voice:

"Straw Hat Kid......"

As he spoke, he grabbed it and kneaded it in his palm, and then it turned into a handful of loose sand and floated on the ground.

On the Golden Merry!

Vivi looked at Luffy with a serious and worried look and said

"You were too impulsive just now, Luffy!"

"If you anger Crocodile, you will be in danger."

Luffy looked at Vivi and asked in a low voice.

"Weiwei, do you think that if we don't provoke him, he will let you and us go?"

""Huh?!"

Vivi was stunned when she heard that.

After hearing that, she realized that they really would not let them go.

Luffy came over, gently patted Vivi's shoulder, and said softly

"Relax, Vivi!"

"You are too scared of Crocodile."

"He is just a Shichibukai, nothing to be afraid of."

"I promise you, I will help you save your country from him."

Vivi stared at Luffy in a daze. She remembered what Nami told her and the unconditional trust that the people on this ship had in Luffy.

Perhaps...

Can she trust Luffy once like Nami and the others?

"call......"

Weiwei took a long breath, smiled apologetically, and said

"I'm sorry, I was too nervous.

Seeing Vivi relax a little, Luffy also smiled.

""I've seen the island!"

At this moment, Nami's surprised cry came from the bow.

She followed the direction of the record pointer and looked at an island gradually appearing in front of her.

Soon, the boat was filled with surprised and emotional voices.

"Is that our next destination after leaving Cactus Island?"

"We are entering the second island after the Grand Line!"

Just as everyone was looking forward to it, a voice that did not fit in suddenly sounded.

"If you land on that island, you might die!"

"......"

In an instant, the ship became extremely quiet.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Robin looking at them calmly.

Soon, one voice after another sounded.

"die......Dead? What does that mean?"

"Is that island dangerous?"

"Are there monsters? Are there zombies? Or are there......There are cannibals? Ugh! I don't want to be eaten by cannibals!"

"How could she say such terrible words so calmly?"

Robin remained calm and explained in a normal tone.

"The island is called Little Garden】"

Everyone was puzzled when they heard this.

"Little garden?"

Robin nodded.

"There is a primeval forest from the Jurassic period, and there are all kinds of ferocious dinosaurs on the island."

Hearing this, Nami, Usopp, and Vivi were so frightened that they fell back, their pupils turning white.

"Dinosaurs! So scary!"

"Is it called"Little Garden" because of these large beasts?"

"In that case, we are really small compared to those dinosaurs!"

Robin shook his head and said

"No! It is called"Little Garden" because the island is as small as a garden to the people living on it."

"There......There is a giant!"

Hearing this, the three people's fear went up to another level.

"huge......giant?!"

"Is such a big island as small as a garden? How scary!"

"It's over, we won't be eaten by the giant, right?"

Seeing the three people like this, the others were speechless.

"I'm telling you guys, aren't you exaggerating?!"

"Aren't you all very strong after being trained by Luffy? There's nothing to be afraid of if it's just a dinosaur, right? Haven't we defeated the sea kings? Can't we just leave the giants to us?"

"Especially you, Usopp! Didn’t you eat the Explosion Fruit? Why are you still so timid? When the dinosaurs come, why don’t you just blow them away?"

Nami and Usopp were stunned and straightened their bodies.

Nami:"That makes sense! Dinosaurs don’t seem to be as big as sea kings, right? What am I afraid of?"

Usopp:"Yes! I have eaten the Explosion Fruit, what is there to be afraid of?"

Only Vivi was crying there.

"Woohoo......I haven't been trained by Luffy.......I can't beat a dinosaur!"

Looking at Weiwei crying and helpless, Luffy smiled, walked over to pat her and said

"You will follow me later! I am here, everything will be fine."

Weiwei stopped crying immediately, tightly grasped Luffy's arm, pursed her lips, looked at Luffy pitifully, and nodded repeatedly like a rattle.......

As they approached the [Small Garden], they could see the island clearly. It looked like a tropical rain forest, with tall trees, various strange plants, and the sound of animals roaring and insects chirping.

"There seem to be many different types of plants here. I'm going to collect and study them to see if I can find some rare plants or cultivate useful new varieties, and then plant them on our ship."

Nojigao was very excited.

Since Luffy helped her learn a lot of knowledge about botany, her interest has also been aroused. She has always wanted to find an opportunity for her to show her talents, so she is very excited now.

"There is almost no food on the ship, I will go hunt some edible wild animals and see if there are any other edible wild fruits."

Sanji said what he was going to do

"Usopp just made me a weather stick, so I'll find some beasts to try out the new weapon! Nokigo, I can just be there to protect you."

Nami gave Nokigo a confident smile and a thumbs up, and the other smiled and nodded at her.

Then the next second, Nami looked at Uta with a begging look in her eyes.

""Uta, come with us! I can feel at ease with you here! If several dinosaurs come at once, we will be eaten."

Uta looked at Nami, whose expression changed at the speed of light, and nodded with a smile.

"Sure!"

Zoro's mouth curled up, with excitement in his eyes.

"Didn't they say there are giants on this island? I'll go find them and see if they're strong."

Usopp saw that everyone else had formed a team, so he immediately hugged Zoro's thigh.

"I'll go with Zoro! On the way, we'll find a chance to adapt to the power of the Explosion Fruit, and then see if we can use our understanding of the [Improved Buggy Bullet] to develop new abilities."

Even with the Explosion Fruit, Usopp was still timid.

In the end, only Robin, Luffy and Vivi were left.

Luffy and Vivi said they wanted to form a team on the ship.

He looked at Robin and asked

"Robin, do you want to be alone or with us?"

Robin looked at Luffy curiously and asked

"Alone? You allow me to be alone. Aren't you afraid that I will leave you halfway and go back to Crocodile?"

Luffy said indifferently.

"You left, I'll bring you back."

"Besides, I want you to be my partner, not a prisoner. I won't restrict your freedom."

Robin was stunned when he heard this, then he suddenly laughed and said

"Then I'll be alone! I'll just take a look around the island and maybe find some interesting history."

Luffy nodded in agreement.

Then he said to everyone

"Crocodile said he would hunt us down on the way, so be careful to see if there are any of their people on the island."

"If there are any, arrest them and see if we can get some useful information from them."

Everyone nodded to show that they understood.

Then, they all left according to their plans.......

In the small garden.

Luffy, Vivi, Kalu, two people and one duck walked in the dense and towering forest.

From time to time, there were continuous roars of wild beasts and dinosaurs. Vivi and Kalu also trembled from time to time with the roars.

"Weiwei, you and Kalu are too nervous, relax, I'm here and everything will be fine.���Wei Wei couldn't help but say.

She had been so nervous since she got off the boat.

Wei Wei forced out a stiff smile and said

"ha......Haha! I've relaxed!"

Roar!

At this moment, a dinosaur roar suddenly came from the side.

"Wow!"

""Gah!"

Vivi and Kalu screamed at the same time, and both jumped up like springs.

The next second, Vivi was hanging on Luffy.

Kalu held Luffy's calf tightly.

Bang!

Luffy punched the dinosaur away.

"Okay, it's okay now!"

"S......"Siguoyi!"

Weiwei sighed.

Then she got off Luffy.......

In the forest, Luffy and Vivi sat on the top of a huge long-necked dragon.

All the surrounding scenery was in full view.

"Yeah! Too......Too high, Luffy!"

"Will this dinosaur really not eat us?"

Vivi looked nervous, huddled in Luffy's arms, trembling

"Kaa!"

Kalu was also trembling beside him.

"Weiwei, don’t worry, I’m here!"

"Look around you, you are very beautiful."

Luffy sat behind Vivi and patted her gently to comfort her.......

As Luffy solved the dangers around him easily again and again, and took Vivi to various places for sightseeing,

Vivi gradually relaxed from her original nervous look.

Later, when she heard the roar of the dinosaurs next to her, she would actively remind Luffy and report his location to him.

Under Luffy's protection and company, Vivi's face gradually blossomed with a smile from the heart.......

""Luffy, this way!"

Vivi called out to Luffy and pointed him in a direction.

She had a smile on her face, no fear in her eyes, and she looked extremely relaxed and happy.

Bang!

Luffy dodged and came to the direction Vivi pointed, punching the dinosaur away.

"Good work, Luffy!"

"Have a drink!"

Vivi smiled and handed Luffy a small barrel-shaped cup, which contained the drink that Sanji prepared for everyone before leaving.

"Gulp gulp gulp......"

Luffy took the cup and drank it in big gulps.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

At this moment, a series of violent noises rang out near them, and the ground shook with the noises, like an earthquake.

Weiwei screamed subconsciously.

"How......what happened?"

""Quack!"

The two men and the duck looked over.

They saw an extremely tall figure walking towards them.

After noticing the two men, the figure immediately lowered his head and looked over.

Luffy, the two men and the duck also saw the appearance of the huge figure.

The other party was a giant with a long beard, wearing an iron helmet, holding an iron sword and a shield.

Seeing such a tall giant for the first time, Vivi couldn't help but hide behind Luffy again.

Although she was not as nervous and scared as before, she was still a little scared when facing a scary object.

"Jiejiejiejie......"

The giant let out a unique laugh, then looked at Luffy and said

"I haven't seen a human in years.......Are you willing to be my long-lost guest?"

Luffy recognized the other person as one of the two giants on the island, [Blue Demon] Touri, and nodded.

""Okay!"

Weiwei asked quietly behind him.

"Luffy, the other party is a giant, is it okay to agree to him like this?"

Luffy responded

"It's okay, he means no harm."

Hearing Luffy say this, Vivi was relieved and no longer hid behind Luffy.

This strange change even she herself did not realize, she had begun to trust and rely on Luffy unconditionally.......

In a huge camp.

Luffy sat cross-legged, Vivi and Kalu sat beside him.

Donli sat opposite.

Luffy and the others were eating the barbecued dinosaur that Donli had caught.

Donli was holding the outdoor lunch box that Sanji had prepared for Luffy.

Donli held the lunch box between his two fingers, which was about the size of his fingernails, and laughed.

"Jiejiejiejie......"

"I will accept your pirate lunch, but the portion is too small."

Luffy said incoherently while eating the roasted dinosaur meat in front of him, which was bigger than him.

"That's because you're too big, but this lunch box is prepared by the best chef on our ship, it tastes great!"

Dongli laughed again when he heard this.

"Jiejiejiejie......"

"Really? Then I thank you."

After saying that, he opened his mouth and poured it in.

"Jiejiejiejie......It's really delicious, this taste! If only there was more."

Luffy suddenly remembered something and said

"By the way, we have some wine on board. You haven't had any in years, right? I'll get it for you."

Dong Li was immediately excited when he heard this, and laughed happily.

"Jiejiejiejie......"

"Thank you so much, my friend!"

Luffy left for a while and brought a few barrels of fine wine for Donli.

After that, the two of them ate and drank, chatting from time to time.

But most of the time, Luffy was listening to Donli telling his story.

It was basically about how he came from Elbaf and had fought with another giant, Broki, here for 100 years, and had long forgotten the reason for the fight.

After that, Luffy and Vivi watched the duel between the two giants together.

During the period, it was also discovered that Zoro and Usopp were with another giant, Broki.

It seemed that they were also regarded as guests of Broki.

Usopp was even more adoring of Broki and recognized him as his master.

Because the duel was so noisy, all the Straw Hat Pirates were attracted.

Luffy was in a good mood and asked everyone to hold a cheerful banquet with the two giants.

After eating and drinking, everyone lay on the ground contentedly.

"Hey! Dongli, Brockie! Do you know how long it takes for the island's record pointer to record the magnetic field?"

Nami raised her hand and glanced at the record pointer on her arm, which did not change.

Then, the two of them said leisurely.���The sound rang in everyone's ears at the same time

"One year!". đà
