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

At four in the morning, the Straw Hat Pirates arrived at their destination before dawn.

He saw Xiao Feng standing at the top of the watchtower, his back to him, his robes fluttering.

"Hmm! You've kept me waiting for so long!!"

"Long time no see!!"

"Just three days ago."

Bai Yun complained, but only Bai Yun paid attention to him; everyone else was saying goodbye to the running ducks.

"Here we are."

"Okay, I'll put down my luggage. Thank you."

"See you later."

"Be careful on your way back."

"Greetings to the King and the curly-haired uncle!!"

“Quack quack!!”

........

Goodbye, and may we meet again someday.

Xiao Feng had somehow jumped to the side of the boat, waving goodbye with tears streaming down his face. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought the ducks were seeing him off.

Then her expression changed instantly, and she stomped her feet in anger. Does this mean all ladyboys have such unpredictable emotions?

"No! No!!"

Sanji turned around and yelled at him with his face, "What are you doing?!"

"Why are you still asking me?!"

"This attitude is not good! They don't even greet old friends when they meet."

Xiao Feng said angrily.

"Who says you're a friend? You're an enemy, and you've even deceived us!!"

Luffy glared at him and replied.

"Oh dear, I swear to God, I really didn't know anything about it at the time."

Xiao Feng replied that Zoro was carrying things upstairs just then.

"Hey, move over there."

"Ah, sorry."

"The B·W Group has been destroyed; we are no longer enemies."

"Even if you're not an enemy, what are you doing on our ship?!"

Luffy asked.

"Pah! What an ungrateful brat!"

Xiao Feng said angrily.

"What!!"

Luffy replied angrily.

"Listen carefully, if I hadn't taken this ship away, it would have been seized by the navy."

"You have no idea what the situation is like around this island! It's been completely blockaded by the navy, completely blockaded!!"

"Not even a swan can fly out!!"

Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper were shocked upon hearing this.

"So, you stole the Going Merry from the Navy for our sake?"

"why?"

"Yeah? Why?"

Tears streamed down Xiao Feng's face as he gave a thumbs-up, saying, "Because, after all, we were friends."

"You really are a good person, I'm not kidding!!"

The next second, the four of them happily put their arms around each other's shoulders and started dancing a high-knee dance.

Zoro's earlier comment, "If we meet again, I think you'll still be friends with him," was a precise and apt retort.

"Do you have any more luggage?"

"No, this is the last one."

Nami and Sanji didn't seem to care at all, as if they had already guessed it, while Bai Yun was already on the lookout tower.

"So, Mr. 2, you want to increase your crew because the Navy has blockaded this island, right?"

Zoro saw through his intention; no one helps others for no reason.

"That's right! In these extraordinary times, we must turn enemies into friends, work together, and break through the encirclement!!"

"Oh oh oh oh!!"

Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper showed their support enthusiastically.

Behind them, Xiao Feng's swan boat quietly approached, with his underlings still on board. "Well then, please take good care of me from now on."

"Are you kidding me?!"

Zoro shouted angrily, "So you have so many people!"

Nami sighed, "Really."

"Haha, they're nothing special. Nami, let's go. We're at East Port now. Eight hours should be enough."

Bai Yun said.

"Yes, 8 hours should be enough if nothing unexpected happens."

"Then let's hope there are no unexpected events."

Chapter 182 Pirate Queen

"Let's hope there are no unexpected events."

If everything were like "that's it," then...that's it...

"Miss Hina, we've spotted their boat. They're moored at the upper reaches of the Santora River."

Hina put on gloves and tightened them with her mouth.

"Prepare for battle!!"

........

It is 7:30 in the morning. The Straw Hat Pirates have been intercepted by Hina at the upper reaches of the Santora River.

Meanwhile, at the royal palace...

"Icarum! I'm going to become the Pirate Queen!!"

Icarus, in his sleep, will give you a big surprise.

The sight of Vivi with tattoos, a gun, and a pirate outfit startled him, causing him to open his eyes abruptly.

Without hesitation, he ran straight to Vivi's room after disembarking.

"Princess Vivi".

Then you see his wife, Tila Godan, and the kingdom's stylist tightening Vivi's dress.

Then it was smashed out.

"It hurts so much, maybe I'm overthinking it."

Having been turned away, Icarum picked up his pillow and walked back, only to see Cobra standing to the side.

He was there just now, but Icarus was in such a hurry that he didn't see him.

"Ah, Your Majesty, you're awake? Good morning."

Cobra turned his head, revealing a large bump on his left forehead.

"Ah, good morning, Icarum. Tilagotan is such a tigress."

"Don't say anything bad about her!!!" Icarus immediately replied.

.......

"Weiwei, we're coming in."

Time passed, and Vivi had finished her makeup. After hesitating for a long time, she finally asked Tila Gotan to call Cobra and Icarus in.

"Well, please come in."

“Father, Icarus, I have something very important to tell you.”

........

Weiwei seemed to have made up her mind, but the situation was not good for Bai Yun and his group.

Hina used what is known as the Black Spear Formation.

They deployed two ships in each of the four directions—east, west, south, and north—to surround Luffy and his crew, continuously firing black iron spears at the Going Merry and the Swan.

Bai Yun replicated Hina's fruit through his vision, and also threw out a spear to intercept it, but he was only one person with two hands.

It couldn't compare to the spears that Hina had created beforehand using her Cage-Cage Fruit powers, which were then fired from a turret.

"Come on! Fire with cannonballs! That way I can get my revenge!!"

Luffy shouted angrily.

The black iron spear could only block one side, even for Zoro (who can't yet fly and slash), Sanji (with his fleshy legs), and Luffy (with his rubber body).

On the other side, they could only rely on artillery shells and supplies.

But there are also the front and back sides.
