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

Hina bit the cigarette butt in her mouth and asked with a displeased expression.

"Why aren't you leaving, Montenos D. White?"

"Or are you like the soldiers reported... able to split yourself into two?"

"Forget it, none of that matters. Hina is a disgrace, and none of you will escape!"

"Hmph!! Bring it on!!"

Xiao Feng replied with a gloomy face, "Does he expect to be all smiles during a battle?"

Nikka Luffy: ...I feel offended...

Watching the explosions continue to resound in the distance, the once beautiful swan sank to the bottom of the sea.

Luffy, Usopp, Chopper, and even Sanji were all watching this scene from the second floor of the Going Merry.

Overwhelmed with gratitude, they shouted, "Little one, we'll never forget you!!"

Bai Yun's true form was on the watchtower, watching this scene with mixed feelings. He hoped to see her again, yet he also hoped not to see her again, or rather, he hoped that their reunion wouldn't be in Impel Down.

Chapter 184 tells the story of Cinderella leading seven little giants in a battle against the snake and scorpion demons.

With the help of the clone Bai Yun, Xiao Feng and his group successfully held off Hina. After Bai Yun lost his powers for 15 minutes, he stopped Hina himself, allowing Xiao Feng and his group to escape in a small boat.

He also has his own exclusive adventure. If we follow the historical trajectory, he was captured in order to save his former boss. In that case, all of Arubana's fighters would be there, and the "family" would be complete.

Although Hina bound the clone Baiyun with the Cage-Cage Fruit, he was instantly transformed into a bullet right in front of her.

In summary, Hina let the Straw Hat Pirates go, and now Bon Clay has escaped, but she has also obtained a bullet—a limited edition bullet that has turned into a white bullet.

In conclusion, she's a total slut~ (￣▽￣～)~

.........

Meanwhile, Luffy and his crew, without Hina's black barrier, were no match for them. They attacked with kicks, slashes, and bullets.

Luffy: Give me more.

Bai Yun: Let's not.

After overcoming numerous obstacles, they arrived at the agreed-upon East Port.

But Weiwei didn't come.

Now, Vivi's voice is coming from loudspeakers all over Alabasta.

Vivi was recounting her adventures and the ship she encountered that led her toward the light.

Luffy and his crew at East Port also heard Vivi's voice.

.........

Malisk, the eastern port of Alabasta.

Luffy and his crew are waiting for Vivi here.

Zoro and Sanji are more realistic.

"Did you hear that? That voice definitely is Vivi's voice."

Sanji exhaled a puff of smoke and picked up where Zoro left off.

"That's Alabasta's celebration, isn't it? It seems Vivi has made her decision."

But Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper are rather stubborn.

"It's just that her voice sounds like Vivi's."

"That's right!!!"

"Let's go, it's past midnight..."

Sanji advised.

Luffy acts like a child; the three most important things in his heart are "comrades," "food," and "brothers."

"She won't not come; get off the ship and go find her!!"

Zoro was about to come over and try to persuade him when Bai Yun spoke first.

"Let's wait a little longer. Maybe Weiwei is just a little delayed."

"However, the current situation doesn't give us time to disembark. We can only wait on the ship, but not for too long, Luffy."

"Okay, let's wait a little longer."

Luffy replied, turning his head to stare at the shore.

Zoro had no choice but to agree to wait a little longer.

Just then, the navy caught up with them; it wasn't Hina, but a captain.

"Oh no, the navy is catching up again."

Usopp yelled.

"How many ships do they have?!"

Zoro sighed.

I don't know. All I can say is that the Navy is maintained by the World Government's money, and the World Government is made up of Celestial Dragons, who are the richest people in the pirate world.

How many ships?

Probably a hundred million ships.

Knowing he couldn't keep him, Zoro prioritized the bigger picture and shouted directly.

"Prepare to set sail, turn the rudder!!"

"Give up, she's not the same person she was with us."

Sanji advised.

Luffy pouted and didn't answer.

Just as he was about to accept it, and the boat had already turned and sailed some distance, he heard Weiwei's shouts from the shore.

"Everyone!!!"

Let's shift our focus to Arubana for now. The balcony where Vivi was standing is now occupied by Icarus, or rather, Icarus in women's clothing. Sure enough, once someone cross-dresses, it's unlikely to happen only once.

The crowd below, not wanting to be blind, threw whatever they were holding at him, asking, "Where is the real princess?"

The princess is on the shore of East Harbor.

Meanwhile, the king was suppressing a laugh in the room behind Ikalam.

"Vivi!!"

"Karu!!"

Luffy excitedly stepped onto the ship's railing with one foot.

"Look!! She's here!!"

Luffy turned his head with a smile and said.

"Turn around quickly."

Usopp immediately took the helm.

Nami breathed a sigh of relief, "Vivi..."

Sanji's eyes turned red again, and Chopper raised his hands in celebration.

Only Zoro had the best overall perspective: "The Navy is catching up too."

Bai Yun chuckled and patted him on the shoulder, "So what if they're here? It's just three ships. Let's fight them!"

Zoro glanced at him and nodded.

Just as everyone was in high spirits, Weiwei suddenly shouted.

"I've come... to say goodbye to everyone."

The smiles on everyone's faces froze instantly, replaced by confusion. Bai Yun sighed, "Fate, you have no choice but to change it!!"

Vivi removed the Den Den Mushi's microphone from Karu's body, and now her words are being transmitted back to various parts of Alabasta.

"Sorry! I can't go together!!"

"Thank you so much for taking care of me during this time."

"Although I'd love to go on an adventure, I have a deep love for this country..."

"I love my country so much!!"

"So, I can't go with you guys!!"

Upon hearing this, Luffy remained silent for a moment before a smile appeared on his face. "I see."

If someone has their own pursuits and things they want to do, Luffy will understand and let go, just like Whitebeard was willing to let Oden join Roger's ship.

"I've decided to stay here. If we ever meet again, will you still call me your comrade?!"

Vivi couldn't hold back her tears in the end.

Exclamations came from the naval warships over there.

"Did you hear that?! The princess of Alabasta is colluding with pirates?!"

"She's friends with pirates?"

Just as Luffy was about to shout back, Nami immediately covered his mouth.

"Fool!"

"We can't respond to her. The Navy has already taken notice of Vivi. If more evidence is found linking her to us, Vivi will be convicted."

Nami explained.

At this moment, Bai Yun walked over, holding a loudspeaker.

"Those Navy bastards chasing after us must be having a tough time, right?"

"I'm just here to tell the ending of a story. Remember, it's impolite to interrupt someone."
