"Captain, this is not the place to fight. Our priority is to get out of the snake's belly."
Blackbeard said coldly, "I know! But how do we leave?"
Luffy suggested, "I have a plan. We just need to find the snake's anus, and we can get out from there!"
Robert and Blackbeard exclaimed in unison, "I refuse!"
Luffy looked dejected: "What? I thought this was a great idea."
A gasp rang out, and the three of them were startled: "There's someone else in here?"
Taking advantage of the giant snake's relative calm, the group hurried towards the direction from which the sound came. They walked for an unknown distance, stumbling along the muddy path, until they heard someone ahead say, "There are lights over there!"
The two groups met after turning a corner, and Robert felt immediately at ease.
Arriving were Gan Fall, the former ruler of the Skypiea, his mount, and a group of Namega native children.
Now the plot is back on track. All I have to do is patiently wait for Enel to shoot the giant snake down from the upper level of the ruins, then rush out with Nami, and wait for Enel to personally lead me to the Ark Maxim!
Blackbeard looked at Gan Fall's large bird that had eaten the Horse-Horse Fruit, his eyes revealing a fierce look.
Robert immediately understood his meaning, and fearing that he would kill and eat the bird, he quickly said:
"We're saved! All we have to do is let Uncle Gan Fall's horse carry us out of the snake's mouth!"
Blackbeard said menacingly, "There's only one horse, but so many people here. How are we going to get out?"
Robert glanced at Blackbeard and took the tattered backpack off his back again:
"Captain, why don't you go back into the barrel?"
Chapter 15 There is an old Chinese saying
Blackbeard took a few deep breaths, glared at Luffy, and said to Robert in a low voice, "You'd better not disappoint me again!"
Robert exuded confidence this time: "Trust me, I will complete the mission as soon as possible!"
Blackbeard disappeared into the shadows and then crawled closer to the crumpled iron barrel, which shrank violently back to the size of a basketball.
The backpack was tattered and torn, but it was still usable. Robert put the backpack on his back and said, "We came in early and you came in late, which means you came from the direction of the snake's head. As long as we head in that direction, we can find a way to get out of the snake's mouth. At that time, it will be hard for Uncle's bird to make several round trips."
Luffy suggested again, "Wouldn't it be easier to find the snake's anus if we went back the way we came? Why don't we go out through the anus?"
Nami punched Luffy on the head, stopping his wicked thoughts.
Robert hid to the side and remained silent. He said that this was enough, and his only task now was to keep a close eye on Nami.
The group walked through the snake's belly, and several times they fell back down because the snake suddenly moved.
Nami complained, "Why is this giant snake going berserk again!"
Robert simply dodged the falling rocks without saying a word, probably because outside, the last survivors of this sky island battle royale had already gathered together and were fighting each other.
A strong feeling of weightlessness washed over him, and Robert immediately clung to Gan Fall's mount.
The giant snake opened its mouth, and a bright light suddenly appeared not far in front of them.
Nami shouted, "Now's the time! Charge out!"
Gan Fall rode on his bird, and Robert sat behind him quite naturally.
Nami had Luffy grab her Waver, while she grabbed the native child with her other hand. Then she suddenly accelerated, and a powerful gust of wind blew out, pushing her out of the snake's mouth and blowing Luffy and the child back into the snake's belly.
Gan Fall's bird also flew quickly toward the snake's mouth, when suddenly Gan Fall shouted, "Pierre! Quick!"
Robert covered the old man's mouth with his hand. "We're both falling from the sky, and you're sacrificing yourself to let the birds go back to save Luffy?!"
Luffy and the others could have made it out without this bird, but now that we don't have it, we'd most likely have fallen to our deaths!
Because of Robert's delay, the two people and the bird had already flown out of the snake's mouth. In front of them was a drop of over a hundred meters, and everything around them was falling rapidly.
Robert shouted, "Nami is going to fall to her death! Quick, save her!"
Gan Fall was also indecisive, only thinking about saving as many people as possible, and quickly commanded his mount to fly over.
The group was dragged to the ground by the giant bird. Nami was still in shock, and Robert helped her to sit down next to a broken wall.
"What do we do? Luffy is still inside the snake's belly!"
Robert looked at him strangely: "Don't worry, Miss Nami, even if that giant snake dies, he won't die either."
Nami paused for a moment, then let out a long sigh: "Yes, Luffy is much stronger than me, he will definitely get through this. So what do we do next, Mr. Robert?"
Several crucial decisions made by Robert have led Nami to label him as reliable, and now that she is alone and helpless, she instinctively wants to seek his opinion.
Robert pointed behind Nami: "Your teammates are here."
Nami looked in the direction Robert was pointing and saw Robin and Zoro talking not far away.
She quickly greeted the two loudly, and while they reminisced, Robert kept a close eye on the large snake that had fallen with them.
A thick bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting the snake's head squarely. Everyone present looked on in horror.
A flash of lightning, and the giant snake that everyone had been besieging for so long was instantly killed and fell to the ground.
Enel tossed out a cloud ball and casually sat on it:
"You've worked so hard to get here, so let me give you some praise."
"Although this is just a small game, we'll see how many of the 81 participants can last until the end within three hours."
"Of course, there are also contestants who joined midway through the process, and I also acknowledge their qualifications."
"In my prediction, there will only be 5 survivors, including myself."
"There are only three minutes left. That means it will be bad if there is a sixth survivor here by then."
Nami, holding the unconscious Chopper, stood beside Robert. Upon hearing this, she tightened her grip on Robert's arm.
Robert patted her, and Nami, thinking he was comforting her, whispered gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Robert!"
Robert smiled and said, "Don't panic, because I'm more panicked than you are."
Nami's tears were streaming down her face when Enel continued:
"God's prophecy cannot fail, so who will disappear?"
Gan Fall is a proud man, Robin and Zoro both have their own principles, while the Shandian warrior Wapa is simply stubborn.
The four of them pointed at Enel in unison: "Then let's make you disappear!"
Nami, tears streaming down her face, said, "Even if Enel is killed, there's still one more person! And I, being the weakest, will definitely die too!"
Robert patted her again, but this time Nami didn't think he was comforting her. She only heard Robert say:
"Remember what happened on the Going Merry? You could survive to the end by doing nothing."
Nami nodded vigorously, while Robert focused all his attention on the battlefield.
At this moment, Enel had already explained to the group his plan to shoot the entire Sky Island down to the ground, and also expressed his vision of taking the last survivors to the Infinite Land.
But Gan Fall was in a hurry to log off, and after listening, he was the first to attack Enel. As a result, Enel just moved his finger and the old man fell asleep immediately.
As expected, Robin also started using her verbal skills, trying to threaten Enel with the Golden Bell, but she was instantly killed before she even had a chance to make a move.
Zoro and Wapa, both stubborn as ever, refused to fight together and instead chose to split up and go to their deaths.
These two were indeed more resilient, each withstanding two rounds of Enel's lightning strikes. Wapa even used Seastone and Mortar to almost knock Enel down.
However, the ending remains unchanged. At this stage, apart from Luffy who is overpowered, no one in the main group can withstand two rounds of lightning strikes from Enel. This is an ironclad rule.
Robert had also considered whether to rush in and finish off Enel when he was knocked down. It seems that people in the pirate world think that knocking someone out is a victory, so there are countless examples of people, whether good or bad, reviving and turning the tables.
But in the end, Robert resisted the tempting idea, because his goal was not simply to kill Enel.
After defeating all the enemies, Enel looked at Nami and Robert hiding behind the stone wall:
"Now it's just the two of you left. How are you going to choose?"
Robert and Nami exchanged a glance, both seeing fighting spirit and raging fury in each other's eyes. They nodded in unison, then looked at Enel together:
"We'll go with you!"
Chapter 16 Whose tires are afraid of falling?
Enel seemed pleased with their pragmatic attitude, acknowledging that they were both outstanding individuals, and waved with a smile, signaling them to follow.
Robert and Nami, unusually in sync, raised their hands and said, "Just a moment!"
The two jumped into the crater created by Enel's lightning strike on Wapa. Nami winked at Robert, as if to say, "How can you be so spineless?"
Robert retorted, not to be outdone, implying that I was just as shameless as he was.
The two checked Wapa's injuries. He was of average fighting ability, but his vitality was extraordinary; he had only fainted.
Nami turned around and pushed the Waver onto the vehicle, while Robert ripped the Mortar Bead from Wapa's hand.
With that, he had obtained the last item in his plan, and all that remained was to leave the rest to fate and deal with whatever came his way.
The two climbed out of the pit. Enel didn't think much of it. After all, his mind network only sensed that the two had checked the person's life or death in the pit, but hadn't made any other moves.
With Robert and Nami as burdens, Enel didn't use his elemental powers to travel; he simply walked ahead at a leisurely pace.
After traversing the dense forest and winding through the hills, Enel arrived at a huge mound and stepped into the cave entrance at the bottom.
Robert was indeed shocked when he first saw the sea of clouds, but now, compared to the giant ships of later generations that weighed tens of thousands of tons, this Ark of Prophecy is not so remarkable.
Enel proudly introduced the enormous airship, while Robert looked on with the curiosity of a curious child, having already considered the ship his prize.
But Nami looked worried and became more and more frightened as she listened, feeling that once she boarded this airship, she would never have a chance to escape again.
Robert gently patted her shoulder: "You must believe in yourself, and you must also believe in your partners."
Robert didn't dare say anything more, but it was clear that those two sentences had comforted Nami. Her expression relaxed, and she even began to listen carefully to Enel's explanation of the principles of the Proverb's flight.
Enel darted onto the deck, Robert followed closely behind, using the shell beneath his feet to leap up, and then lowered a rope ladder to pull Nami up as well.
Nami cautiously tried to extract some information from Enel, but Robert looked left and right, then pointed to the control panel on the deck and asked:
"Is this the control system for Ark: Proverb? It looks quite different from ordinary ships."
Enel's urge to confide had been suppressed for a long time, and Robert's question was right on his nerves.
At this moment, Enel is like the long-suppressed young husband in the famous Forbidden Games series produced by the renowned Japanese drama studio Madonna.
