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

The soldier rushed over and hurriedly bent down to pick up his gun, as if nothing had happened.

But then a scream rang out, "Ah!!!" It was Cobatter's voice.

From the Navy's perspective, as soon as Luffy and his crew were drawn to the commotion on the left, a soldier immediately appeared on the right and carried Cobart away.

Cobato's scream drew Luffy and his crew's attention back to the right.

Using the same trick again, a soldier appeared from the left and grabbed at Nami, but Nami noticed him and immediately threw a left hook.

"No!!"

One punch and someone's front teeth pop out—that's the power of Nami's punch.

"Those are our own people!!"

Upon seeing this, Drake angrily transformed into a shark-faced man and shouted, "I had no idea Nami was a member of the Straw Hat Pirates; I thought she was just an ordinary nurse!"

"Go quickly!!"

The situation was bad, Zoro immediately shouted, reminding everyone to run.

Drake had no choice but to give the order, "Move!!"

At that moment, the Merry slid off its launch pad and crashed into the sea, making a huge noise that startled everyone.

Just now, when Luffy and his crew passed through "Soldier's Path," Mechao finally climbed to the top control panel.

Looking at the control switch in front of him, he hesitated.

However, he could tell that his own daughter was also helping Luffy and the others. He could tell whether his daughter was genuinely scared or just pretending to be scared.

and.

"It can give birth to legendary ship spirits on ships."

"People like this really shouldn't spend the rest of their lives in prison; sailing on the high seas is their only way home."

I hope I haven't done anything wrong!

Thinking of this, Mechao resolutely pulled the lever, causing the iron plate holding the Going Merry to shrink, and due to inertia, the Going Merry slid straight down.

Chapter 381 Because I'm very smart!

Drake did have some wisdom; he wasn't foolish enough to let Luffy and the others walk past.

Instead, they used distraction to achieve the goal of rescuing the hostages. Distraction is a common method used in rescue operations. Otherwise, if a soldier can't even hold his own gun steadily, he'd probably have to go back to cleaning toilets and start over.

Drake never expected that Nami, the nurse, was also a fake. His plan succeeded, but only halfway.

Just as the two groups were about to fight again, the Going Merry slid off its launch pad and landed precisely in front of Luffy and his crew, as if it had come to welcome them.

........

The huge commotion caused by the Merry stunned both groups.

"Come on!"

Bai Yun spoke to wake everyone up, then lifted Sanji up by his arms and took the lead, flying up first.

"Hehe, yeah, everyone run!!"

Luffy said with a smile, stretching out one arm to embrace the others, and extending the other arm to grab the Going Merry. The next second, he flew up in a flash.

Zoro's head landed squarely on the ship's railing, and the shock brought everyone back to the deck.

Hmm... I think I've found the reason why Zoro is so bad at directions. Is this how he got so confused?

He wanted to cut Luffy, which Bai Yun could understand.

.........

"Uh...."

"why?"

Bai Yun put Sanji down. Sanji was still dazed, almost dropping the cigarette from his mouth. He asked, puzzled, "Why did you bring me up here? Of course, it's good that you came up like this, but why him?"

Bai Yunhui smiled.

"I'm not just good at saving Luffy."

After saying that, Bai Yun stretched out his hand, and Xiao Bai jumped down from the observation platform and accurately wrapped around his wrist.

Sanji was reminded of what he had said when he was on the bank of the bridge by Bai Yun's answer.

It turned out to be because of this.

Sanji exhaled a puff of smoke, thinking to himself that he had only said it casually.

"Damn it! We're just mortals, you'll kill us sooner or later!!"

Nami got up and punched Luffy on the head.

But she was being too modest. If they were truly mortal, they would have died countless times over.

"Alright, we've got the Merry back, let's get out of here."

"Stand still."

Bai Yun said this while already pushing the hand oar. He unleashed a burst of air pressure under his feet, and with the impact, the hand oar spun rapidly, propelling the Merry out of the dock at a very fast speed.

........

"Damn it!! Damn it!!"

"They escaped again!!"

Drake was as angry as an enraged gorilla.

Mekao also came down and came to Kobat's side.

"Cobabit, are you alright?"

"You really had a great time today."

"I'm fine, Dad."

"It was truly a wonderful experience."

"Kobatt replied."

The Straw Hat Pirates were able to escape thanks in no small part to the father and daughter.

"You were the one who lowered the boat, weren't you?! Mechao!!"

"You need to understand, helping the navy can land you in a court-martial!!!"

Drake shouted at Mekao.

Grandpa Mecha was equally assertive and roared back.

"All I know is that my precious daughter is in the hands of pirates!!"

"Are you expect me to just stand by and watch my precious daughter die?!"

"Uh...."

Drake was once again rendered speechless by Mekao's retort.

"Is that boat usable now?"

"This is all here, take what you like!"

Mekao replied.

"We must board the warship and capture the Straw Hat crew!!!"

Drake shouted the order.

.........

"Hahaha, we're out!!"

Feeling the sunlight on his body, Luffy spread his legs, raised his hands, and shouted happily.

He vaguely saw the pirate flag fluttering in the wind, and Usopp was fully revived.

"Great! Have we recaptured the Going Merry?"

"a ha ha ha."

"As expected, under my wise leadership, everything else is insignificant."

Zoro lowered the sails.

The Going Merry is sailing against the wind, with Chopper at the helm.

Sanji exhaled a puff of smoke with a gust of wind, while Nami, standing on the second-floor deck, leaned against the railing and sighed, "Yeah, we're finally out."

"However, it's not over yet!"

It's definitely not over yet.

At that moment, Luffy noticed Jonathan on the balcony and smiled at him.

"Hehe, I told you, fortress uncle, if I said I wanted to go out, I could go out."

"Oh, so you're going out now?"

"I asked Jonathan."

"We'll go out when Robin comes back."

Luffy replied very honestly.

"Then I wish you success."

Jonathan turned and went back into the room.

........

Inside Jonathan's office.

He rarely left his office, yet he always seemed to have everything under control.

First, he called Drake and told him not to worry and to fire away, explaining that the nurse on the other side was fake and also a member of the Straw Hat crew.

After hanging up the phone, Jonathan looked at the king piece representing Luffy on the chessboard.
