Su Mu looked at Zoro's sword.

Zoro sensed the gaze and immediately hid his sword behind his back, his eyes wary.

"What are you trying to do? I'm telling you, don't mess with me again, or I'll definitely chop you up."

"Hmm... if you don't have one, then use a Den Den Mushi."

"Well, how about this one?"

Suddenly, Luffy picked a booger out of his nostril and handed it to Su Mu, saying...

"Ah, anything is fine..."

Su Mu smiled and turned his head, but before he could finish speaking, he caught sight of the slightly yellowish lump that had been rolled into a ball.

He immediately stopped, his expression changed, and then he decisively raised his fist, locked his eyes on Luffy's head, and punched down!

grimace in pain:

"Can it my ass! Who the hell uses boogers?!"

With a series of swift and fluid movements, Luffy was slammed straight into a snowdrift.

Upon seeing the splashing snowflakes, Su Mu suddenly realized what was happening, so he squatted down and grabbed a handful of snow.

The next second, a snowball slowly rose and floated in the air.

Seeing the snowball slowly drifting in one direction, everyone perked up.

"I've got it, Su Mu. If we just follow this snowball, we'll be able to find Nami and the others."

Usopp's eyes lit up at the sight, and he looked at Sumu.

"Ah, I'll control the speed of the snowball. Everyone, just follow the snowball."

"Huh? Is it a snowball? It is, it's definitely a little better than my booger ball."

Luffy climbed out of the snow and stared at the snowball, his mouth agape.

"Alright! Let's charge together with Snowball!!"

…………

Punk Hazard.

Naval warship docking area.

Smoker frowned and stepped onto the icy, snow-covered shore.

Behind him followed a group of marines, as well as Tashigi.

"We just received word that Fleet Admiral Akainu has personally arrived with a large force!"

"Our mission is to ensure that the Straw Hat Pirates do not leave the island before they arrive."

"At the same time, we must not reveal the news of the Navy's arrival on the island, and try to avoid contact with the Straw Hat Pirates too early."

Smoker listened to Tashigi's detailed report, exhaled a puff of smoke, and murmured:

"Akainu has come in person... It seems the Navy is determined to annihilate the Straw Hat Pirates."

"Speaking of which, the Straw Hat Pirates two years ago did not receive this much attention from the Navy, and it was truly rare for the Fleet Admiral to personally lead an expedition to capture them at all costs."

"Perhaps it's because of that new kid who just joined..."

Smoker waved to the people behind him.

A naval soldier with binoculars immediately ran up from behind and reported that he had spotted what appeared to be an abandoned castle.

Just ahead.

"Is anyone inside the castle?"

"Lieutenant General, it's too far away, I can't see it."

Smoker paused for a moment after hearing this, then spoke:

"This island may soon suffer even greater turmoil than it did two years ago. Two years ago, Marineford almost sank because of that kid. Who knows what will happen to this island this time?"

"Hurry up and check. There might be other people on this snow island. If there are, find out their identities and then evacuate them."

Smoker frowned slightly, his mind replaying the urgent phone call he had just received.

He guessed that there must be more than just the Straw Hat Pirates on this island.

"Keep moving forward and try to avoid the Straw Hat Pirates. Don't let them know about the Marines. If they find out and panic and try to leave the island, we won't be able to stop them..."

As they were talking, the navy began to move forward.

Little did they know that a ship flying the Straw Hat Pirates' flag was approaching not far from where their warship was docked.

Sensing the movement behind them, the navy personnel all turned around to look.

The Sunny, with the Straw Hat Crew flag fluttering in the wind, slowly docked not far from the warship.

Upon seeing this, the navy personnel were stunned...

A moment later, they were shocked, clutching their heads and taking a deep breath!

"That, that's... the Straw Hat Pirates' ship?!"

"Why!!!"

"I just finished speaking and then I ran into them!!"

On the Sunny.

Brooke dropped the anchor and then leisurely took a sip of coffee.

He stood by the side of the Sunny, staring blankly ahead.

I couldn't help but sigh...

"Ah... the waves here are really strong... I drifted here without even realizing it... but at least we've made it to shore."

"Huh? Why are there so many people on that shore...? That's...?"

Brook was slightly taken aback when he saw Smoker and his group not far from the shore.

But then he realized that the other person's clothes looked somewhat familiar.

A moment later, the Sunny came to a stop, peered over an iceberg, and Brooke saw the naval warship moored not far from the Sunny...

He squinted at the empty, skeletal eyes, then froze.

"The sea, the seagulls... their flag..."

"That...that's..."

Suddenly, Brooke saw the warship clearly, as well as the navy not far from the shore, and large beads of sweat rolled down his skull.

His voice trembled as he said:

"That's the Navy!!"

"Oops! What happened? I've steered the Sunny right next to a naval warship! Huh—!"

Brook wasn't the only one surprised; the entire Navy was also astonished.

I just said to be careful not to let the Straw Hat crew see us, and now the two ships have met?!

Smoker's expression also changed. He was indeed a Marine, but he wasn't the kind of foolish and unaware Marine!

Two years ago, he could do whatever he wanted in front of Luffy and the others. If the lineup remains the same two years later, even if the Straw Hat crew becomes stronger, Smoker will still not be afraid at all.

But then, something unexpected happened: a new Su Mu joined the opposing team!

Smoker naturally understood how terrifying Su Mu was, and those marines who had never seen Su Mu in person could also imagine Su Mu's strength when they saw Fleet Admiral Akainu personally leading the attack!

At this moment, they encountered the Straw Hat crew's Thousand Sunny ahead of time. It would be a lie to say that the Marines were not afraid.

If the war starts prematurely, they will definitely die before Fleet Admiral Akainu arrives with his men.

But what they didn't know was that there was only one person on the Sunny at that moment.

That is, Brooke...

"Oh no! Oh no! Are they going to take the Sunny away? No way, it's already anchored. It'll take time to raise the anchor, and the navy will definitely charter it..."

"what to do?!"

Brook covered his head and paced back and forth. He was all alone and felt an emptiness behind him. Naturally, he had an instinctive fear of the Navy.

"Oh! Right, then I'll just lie down and continue pretending to be a corpse... even though I am a corpse to begin with... yohohoho..."

Thinking this, Brook immediately lay down in a corner, remaining still to avoid any further movement, while inwardly praying that the opposing navy had not seen him.

If the navy were to board the Sunny, he would have no choice but to fight to the death to protect the ship.

……

On the other side, Smoker was also forced to order the navy to take cover.

Immediately, all the marines found cover and quickly hid, fearing they would be discovered by the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Damn it! The warship is still there. What do we do? We've definitely been discovered."

"The Straw Hat Pirates, have they been on the ship the whole time? Why haven't they come down? Is it because they saw the Navy warship? They must have spotted us! Vice Admiral Smoker!"
