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

.........

How much do you earn per month?

"Do you work overtime or not?"

How are shifts arranged?

Can we see the future?

"Do you still feel that you'll just be a common soldier until the very end, enduring hardship to serve those above you?"

After Captain Tekura, Bai Yun's clone, left the study, two soldiers followed him.

But Bai Yun's mouth was like a machine gun, constantly launching mental attacks at them.

His words nearly made the two soldiers feel emo.

"Captain Tekura! Where are you going?"

One of the soldiers couldn't hold back any longer and couldn't let him continue.

Bai Yun, who was walking ahead, stopped when he heard the soldier shout this.

Just then, around a corner, Rika, who had just come out of the infirmary, appeared and walked over.

Captain Tekura resolutely pulled her over, grabbed her by the neck, and turned to face the two soldiers. This whole thing was a self-directed act; he was the one who strangled himself.

"Well!!"

"Miss Rika!!!"

The two soldiers immediately cried out in alarm, not expecting Rika to appear here.

As one of only two "cooks" in the canteen, Lika was remembered and liked by all the soldiers on her first day.

"Beautiful lady."

"Sorry, I need to get away. Thank you for your help."

Taikula Baiyun said with a smile, his eyes filled with pride.

Lika's true form, Bai Yun, appeared to be being pinched, looking up in discomfort.

I can only say there are two good actors, or rather, one good actor.

"If you follow us any further, we don't know what will happen to this beautiful lady."

"But you're going to be in big trouble, I promise."

Taikula Baiyun spoke to the two soldiers, and as he spoke, he slowly retreated with his main body until he reached the corner, where he darted to the right and went inside.

"Miss Rika!!"

The two immediately stepped forward to the corner and looked to the right, but only saw an empty corridor with no one in sight.

Chapter 375 Prison Rescue

"Brubrubru~ Brubrubru~"

"Hey."

"Commander Jonathan, Miss Rika from the cafeteria has been kidnapped by Captain Tecura and has disappeared. It has been confirmed that Captain Tecura is a member of the Straw Hat Pirates in disguise!"

"Has Rika been kidnapped?"

"Hmm~ Okay."

"Increase troop strength to search for Tekura... oh no, I mean Long-Haired White Fortune's whereabouts. Make sure Rika's safety is guaranteed."

"yes!!!"

After hanging up the phone, Jonathan looked at the chessboard in front of him.

The pieces representing Luffy and Sanji moved in front of the pieces representing Zoro and Usopp.

"Captain Tekura, long-haired Baiyun..."

Muttering to himself, Jonathan picked up the piece representing the White Luck and placed it in front of the Zoro and Usopp pieces.

"Rika... um..."

........

Just as Luffy and Sanji guessed, the independent building in the middle, which can only be reached by crossing a bridge, is the prison.

Grandpa Mechao, the repairman, came to the prison to talk to Usopp about the Going Merry. When he got to the crucial question of the ship's spirit, he was pulled away.

Drake and his team were lying in ambush here, and Mekao's presence would only increase the probability of an accident, so he was asked to leave.

Seeing Mechao come out, Luffy and his crew realized that this was the prison and immediately sneaked inside.

Everyone knows there's a trap, so who cares how well it's hidden, they just open their microphones.

"Zoro~"

Where are you?!

Luffy was unaware that Usopp had also been captured; otherwise, Usopp would have been quite famous.

"coming!!"

Drake immediately became fully alert and signaled the soldiers to get ready.

"Da da da!!!"

The footsteps grew closer until Luffy and Sanji were completely in front of them.

"Luffy!! Sanji!! That's great!!!"

Usopp ran to the iron bars and saw Luffy and Sanji appear; his eyes immediately welled up with tears.

"Usopp!?"

"You're here too!"

Luffy braked suddenly, grabbed the iron bar, but his body went limp instantly.

"So that's how it is! Seastone? How despicable!!"

Usopp cursed.

When the time was right, Drake and his soldiers immediately appeared.

"You have nowhere to escape!!!"

"Snap! Snap! Snap!!"

Soldiers appeared from both the front and back, setting up their long guns and taking aim.

"hateful..."

Sanji looked around and realized he was completely surrounded.

"There's no other way!"

Sanji took the cigarette, then spun around and kicked the iron bar. His plan was to rescue Zoro and Usopp first; Zoro was somewhat useful, and Usopp... should be.

Unfortunately, when he kicked it, the iron bar didn't budge an inch, not even bending slightly. It contained sea stone, and with his current leg strength, he couldn't break it.

Let me explain.

If it's all made of seastone, then even Sanji two years later, with his Raid Suit, wouldn't be able to break through the seastone.

Seastone is very rare for weapons, so how could a relatively remote fortress base like G8 possibly have prison bars made entirely of seastone?

It's just a mixture of parts; some parts are naturally hard, while others are not. Even if you blast them with a cannonball, they can still be broken open. Just like Smoker's weapon, the Jitte, apart from the Seastone at the top, the rest is useless against Devil Fruit users and can be destroyed.

Therefore, Sanji's kick was quite awkward.

"......"

"You're not planning to kick the iron bar away, are you?"

A soldier said, suppressing a laugh.

Sanji was in an awkward position, but he really wanted to kick the soldier who had spoken up in the head.

Usopp took the opportunity to whisper to Sanji, giving Sanji a way out, but unfortunately, he only made Sanji's situation even more awkward.

"Sanji, I have an Impact Deck in my pocket. That should be enough to blast this door open."

"Oh, but I heard that using that thing is very painful."

Sanji returned.

"What other way is there? This is the only way to open this iron gate now, even with Luffy in that state!"

Usopp advised.

Sanji glanced at Luffy, who was "lying flat" on the ground, and said, "Yeah, right." He then reached into Usopp's pocket and pulled out a seashell, not forgetting to save face for himself.

"Fine, gorillas, let me show you this mysterious weapon in the sky."

The "gorilla man" refers to Drake, who has a thick beard.

"shell?"

Drake was also puzzled: could a single seashell really save you?

"You're standing so close, don't blame me if you accidentally hurt someone."

Sanji reminded him.

"That's right."

Usopp immediately dodged backward.

Sanji crouched down and pressed the shell against the iron bar. "Here it comes!" The next second, he pressed the button in the middle of the shell with force.

result!!!

"You mean this docile snake?"

"You mean this docile snake?"

Usopp's voice floated out and kept repeating.

"Hahaha, so this is your secret weapon, your magic weapon?"
