I'm in One Piece, and I'm Luffy's childhood friend.

Even though Bai Yun had been reminding Nami to wear more clothes because of the cold weather for the past few days, the gears of fate still turned.

That day, Bai Yun was on the lookout tower when he heard Weiwei's shouts from below.

Nami, who was running a high fever, was lying on the deck.

"Nami-san!!"

"Nami! Nami!! What's wrong?"

"It's so hot!!"

Upon seeing Nami lying on the ground, everyone immediately surrounded her.

Bai Yun jumped down from the watchtower. "She has a high fever. Hurry, carry Nami to her room. I'll go get her medicine."

Bai Yun is the only one here who knows medicine, though it's not really medical skill; he's just a smattering of what he learned in his hometown.

"good!!"

Sanji felt obligated to carry Nami, so he immediately picked her up in his arms and ran back to the cabin, but he didn't dare to go too fast, for fear of jolting Nami.

........

But for some reason, after taking the medicine, Nami's condition did not improve at all after half a day.

Even Bai Yun was at a loss. Could the gears of fate be so powerful?

"What's wrong, Bai Yun?"

"Why isn't Nami feeling better even after taking the medicine?!"

Sanji was so anxious that he cried while biting his handkerchief.

Bai Yun didn't know why, but as soon as he got up and was about to shake his head, Xiao Bai darted out of his hand and crawled into the bed sheet.

"noob?"

"What are you doing! Come out now."

Bai Yun lifted the sheet, but Xiao Bai was nowhere to be seen. Instead, Xiao Bai had crawled under Nami's clothes.

"You little lecherous snake, how dare you take advantage of someone in distress!!"

Sanji instantly burst into flames.

No matter how much Bai Yun called out, Xiao Bai wouldn't come out. Bai Yun realized something was wrong and had no choice but to lift Nami's clothes and go straight down to her chest.

"Bai Yun, you..."

Sanji didn't know what to say; should he stop them or not?

But halfway through her sentence, she noticed a wound on Nami's left abdomen. The wound was bluish, as if she had been bitten by something.

"This is!?"

Vivi exclaimed.

Xiaobai coiled the pendant back onto Baiyun's wrist, seemingly giving Sanji a disapproving look, as if to say, "Do you think everyone is as lecherous as you?"

“These are signs of poisoning,” Bai Yun said.

"Poisoning!!!"

Luffy and Usopp tensed up in fear.

"Hmm, it must have been bitten by some strange creature in the little garden."

"No wonder the medicine didn't work. If this poison isn't neutralized, the fever might never go down."

"Do you know how to detoxify? Hurry up and do it, Bai Yun!"

Sanji urged.

"If I knew how, I wouldn't have explained so much to you; I would have just taken action."

"42℃, no, it's gone up again."

"We need to find a doctor as soon as possible; it might be too late if we go to Alabasta."

Bai Yun tidied Nami's clothes and blankets, then looked at the thermometer, which had risen another 2 degrees Celsius. At this rate, Nami's forehead would be hot enough to fry an egg by the time they reached Alabasta!

"Doctor! Let's find a doctor! I have to save Nami!!"

Luffy shouted anxiously.

Nami's eyelids twitched, and she struggled to sit up.

"No, there's a newspaper in my drawer..."

.........

Three days ago, 30 Alabasta Kingdom troops defected to the rebels.

The situation, which was originally 60 royal troops against 40 rebel troops, was instantly reversed.

Nami knew that even if she told Vivi, it wouldn't make the ship go faster, so she kept it from her.

Nami is saying this now because she feels the situation in Alabasta is already bad enough, and she can't afford to waste time on it; she can hold on.

Weiwei was also confused. Going back later meant that the chances of stopping the two armies from killing each other were decreasing.

........

Outside the deck, Nami forced herself to come out.

However, they discovered that the course had changed, proving that having Zoro watch the route was indeed a mistake.

"The air smells off. Call Luffy and the others out to adjust our course."

Nami exhaled a puff of white breath and said.

Zoro nodded and called Luffy and the others out.

Now only Bai Yun and Weiwei are left in the cabin, and they are both thinking about something.

.........

Just as Bai Yun was making his decision, Weiwei stepped forward and stood at the entrance to the second floor of the cabin, looking down at the crowd below.

Bai Yun came out a step later than him. Nami looked at Vivi and forced a smile.

"Is there anything you want to say to us, Vivi?"

"You've already given me a ride, I really can't make any unreasonable demands."

“Now, my country is in an unprecedented crisis, and I must go back immediately without any hesitation.”

"Therefore, this ship is now going to sail through Alabasta at top speed!"

After Weiwei finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

Only Nami replied with a smile, "Of course, isn't that what we agreed on?"

Vivi nodded. "Since everyone agrees, let's find an island with a doctor as soon as possible, cure Nami's illness, and then head towards Alabasta. That's the ship's [fastest speed], right?"

Luffy tightened his straw hat and smiled, "That's right, there's no faster speed than this."

"Well said, I'm very impressed with you now, Miss Vivi."

Sanji said.

Zoro, holding his sword, also smiled and said, "Good composure."

At that moment, a massive tornado connecting heaven and earth appeared in front of the Going Merry.

But the tornado seemed to have eyes, bypassing the Going Merry and heading back along the Going Merry's previous course.

If Nami hadn't adjusted the course in time, the Going Merry would probably have been pulverized by that giant tornado—such impressive navigation skills.

This made Vivi even more certain of her choice.

Before Nami could say anything, Bai Yun draped a cloak over her shoulders from behind.

"Alright, Miss Nami, all done."

For some reason, Bai Yun's words seemed to have a magical power; Nami nodded and went back to her room.

Bai Yun walked up to Weiwei.

“Miss Vivi, you are a good friend, and you will be a good princess.”

"Absolutely, I guarantee it with my integrity."

Weiwei was slightly surprised and didn't know what to say, so she smiled and nodded.

"Alright, let's move on and find an island with a doctor!"

Luffy waved his hand and said.

Bai Yun added to his explanation.

"Usopp, you're in charge of watching the flight path."
