One Piece: The Half-Blood Ninja Who Hides on the Straw Hat Ship

Chapter 527 A Battle That Requires Brains

"It would be best if we could draw his attacks away," Brook said. "At least that way she won't keep ruining our pirate ship."

Although the boys' dormitory has become a terrible mess, it's still better than the whole ship being completely transformed.

"That's true, but in our current state, we can't exert much fighting power," Nami said with a headache.

She can no longer use her abilities properly.

"Could seawater neutralize her Devil Fruit power?" Chopper whispered. "I remember Xiyan saying that Devil Fruit powers can be neutralized by seawater."

Nami: ...

Nami looked speechless after hearing Chopper's words.

"Have you forgotten that the three of us are all Devil Fruit users?" Nami said speechlessly, "How can we conduct experiments with seawater in this situation?"

While seawater might indeed neutralize the opponent's Devil Fruit abilities, ... as Devil Fruit users, they would be doomed if they fell into the sea!

Therefore, this method should absolutely not be tried.

Chopper paused for a moment, then said awkwardly, "That seems to be true."

He forgot that everyone here is a Devil Fruit user.

He then asked, "So what do we do now?"

He felt he couldn't even unleash one-tenth of his strength, so how was he supposed to fight?

This time, Nami didn't speak, but stared at the cloud above the Thousand Sunny.

Brooke, following the other person's gaze, paused for a moment, then exclaimed excitedly, "That...that's?!"

"Shhh."

Nami signaled to Brook not to alert the enemy, and then tried to manipulate the cloud that had not changed.

Then, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

"feasible!"

The cloud hadn't lost contact with her!

"Very good!"

Brook also showed a look of surprise. Did this mean they could defeat this Devil Fruit user?

If they can defeat their opponent, they can return to their original form!

Just then, Jorah turned to the other side and shouted, "Hey, you guys, get over here right now!"

"yes!"

"?"

Upon hearing the echo, Chopper's expression changed, and he asked, "Who's speaking?"

Why would someone answer on the vast, empty sea?

"It's a submarine!"

Seeing the submarine emerge from the water, Nami's face darkened. "It's the Donquixote Family's submarine!"

No wonder they were able to get on their pirate ship so quietly; they were relying on a submarine!

That's a brilliant tactic!

"I didn't expect her to have so many accomplices," Brooke said, frowning. "This situation isn't good."

If it were only those three people, they could consider how to outsmart them, but now so many enemies have appeared.

"There's always a way," Nami said.

As she spoke, Nami once again focused her gaze on the cloud she had just released.

"Should we just take action?" Nami wondered to herself.

This is arguably their only chance.

However, given the power contained within that cloud, it might not be able to directly strike the opponent unconscious.

One mistake and it's all over!

Thinking about this, Nami became hesitant.

Then, she turned her gaze to the sky.

At this moment, there were many large clouds floating in the sky!

As if she had just thought of something, Nami's eyes immediately lit up, and then she used her ability to manipulate the cloud and fly into the sky.

Clearly, she wants to use the cloud she created to infect other clouds!

Chopper, seeing this, was dumbfounded and said, "Hey, Nami, why did you take it away?"

Shouldn't we be attacking the enemy at a time like this? Why are we running away?

"The cloud is too small, I'm not confident," Nami said without turning her head.

That cloud was still too weak, so she needed to get more clouds.

Chopper blinked upon hearing this. "The cloud is too small?"

Thinking about it carefully, that cloud wasn't actually that big.

Brooke, as if she had just thought of something, smiled.

"As expected of Nami."

If Nami can also control the clouds in the sky, then their chances of turning the tide are still very high.

Thinking about this, Brooke knew she was even happier.

"Alright, let's prepare for battle." Nami glanced at the rapidly approaching submarine and said, "They could attack us at any moment."

Her method is indeed good, but it will take time to implement.

"yes!!"

Brook and Chopper, realizing the seriousness of the situation, immediately became serious as well.

"You guys, go and catch them!" Jorah pointed at Nami and the other two in the distance and said, "Don't let them get away!"

As he spoke, Jorah tossed his two subordinates onto the submarine, signaling them to come along.

"Yes, Miss Jorah!"

"Hmm~"

Jorah was very satisfied with his subordinates' reaction. He nodded and then walked towards the deck with a big laugh.

"My artistic soul is starting to stir!" Jorah said, wriggling his body. "Let me revamp this pirate ship!"

"Oh, hahaha~"

"Hey, what's she trying to do?"

Seeing Jora carrying the art troupe towards the ship, Chopper's face immediately turned very ugly.

Could it be that this guy is planning to use that trick against their pirate ship?

"They definitely want to use their abilities to modify our pirate ship!" Brook shouted. "Hey, stop it!"

"If you're so capable, attack us! Don't go after the pirate ship!"

"Attack you?"

Jorah glanced at the three of them disdainfully and said, "No, I'd rather modify this pirate ship now!"

"Come on, let me make this ship even more artistic!"

"Art Storm!"

"Stop!"

"boom!!"

The next moment, the pirate ship, corrupted by the Devil Fruit's power, began to twist and deform, eventually turning into an extremely ugly work of art.

"Hahaha~"

"See that!"

Jorah, standing at the bow of the ship, proudly raised his head and declared, "This is the art I'm so proud of!"

"Oh, hahaha~"

From today onwards, this pirate ship will be given a new meaning!

"It's over...

'

Chopper, his arm trembling, said, "The Thousand Sunny is no longer a ship..."

'

If Franky and Merry saw this, they would be furious.

What should I do?

Nami didn't say anything, but just stared at Jorah with a grim expression.

She truly didn't expect the other party to act so unpredictably.

"You really think I didn't see through your diversionary tactic?" Jorah sneered. "You're still too green!"

"So, your target from the very beginning was our pirate ship?" Nami shouted.

"That's right!"

Jora proudly raised his head and said, "My orders to you, young master, are to seize your pirate ship and capture everyone on board. That way... your Straw Hat Pirates won't be able to leave Dressrosa!"

"Oh, hahaha~"

Although she didn't know what the Straw Hat Pirates' plan was, ... they couldn't leave Dressrosa without a pirate ship!

In this way, what awaits them is the young master's reckoning!

Oh hahaha~

Looking at Jora laughing heartily with his head thrown back, Nami frowned and said, "So that's what they were after.

"Nami, what should we do?"

Chopper's expression turned anxious. If they couldn't reclaim the pirate ship, they wouldn't be able to leave this place safely with their crew.

This time, Nami didn't answer immediately. Instead, she thought about it seriously for a moment and then said, "Although the pirate ship has been turned into that state, at least it wasn't destroyed, which is good news."

As long as the pirate ship isn't destroyed, there's still hope!

The two, now understanding what Nami meant, gradually brightened up.

Yes, as long as the pirate ship is safe, there is hope!

"I remember that Devil Fruit users lose their powers after losing consciousness, right?" Brook glanced at Jora, who was still laughing, and said, "So all we need to do is find a way to take her down."

The opponent's Devil Fruit ability is indeed a bit outrageous, but as long as they can find a way to knock the opponent unconscious, it won't be a problem.

"That's right, that's exactly it."

Nami glanced at the sky out of the corner of her eye and said, "So don't rush, let's stall them for a bit first."

Once she uses her Devil Fruit power to gather all the surrounding clouds together, it will be the end for these enemies!

"That's true, but... they're already charging towards us!" Chopper said, pointing at the approaching submarine. "What do we do?"

"Miss Nami, where's your Weather Stick?" Brooke asked quickly.

"It's already been turned into a work of art by that guy," Nami said helplessly.

She had just placed the Weather Stick on the lawn, but it was turned into a twisted stick by the opponent's Devil Fruit ability, so she decisively abandoned it.

"ah?"

"How are you going to strike lightning without a weather vane?"

"You can still strike lightning even without the Weather Stick," Nami said.

"real?"

"Yes, I've had some ideas before, and today is a good day to put them to the test."

Brooke: ? ? ?

In other words, this matter is still uncertain?

Hey, are you kidding me?!

"Okay, trust me," Nami shouted.

Seeing that Nami had already said that, Brook couldn't say anything more.

After letting out a silent sigh, Brooke turned his gaze to the oncoming submarine and said, "Let's deal with this first..."

'

"You two go underwater first!" Nami interrupted Brook, saying, "I'll take care of things here!"

Brook and Chopper aren't in much of a fighting position right now, so I'd rather have them dive underwater.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"I can still transform into my elemental form, but I just won't be able to fight," Nami explained.

Although her body is currently unable to create clouds that can be used for combat, it has not been stripped of its elementalization ability, so she is not in any immediate danger.

"clear!"

Having understood what Nami meant, Brook decisively pulled Chopper into the Shark and then quickly dived into the sea.

"Did it escape?" Jorah looked at the disappearing Shark with some surprise, then said, "But these toys can't escape too far, so there's no need to worry too much."

As long as the pirate ship is with her, she has no intention of letting them not return.

Understanding this, Jora decisively averted his gaze and then looked at his subordinates, saying, "Go and capture that woman first!"

"profound!"

Upon receiving the order, the subordinates roared and quickly drove the submarine after Nami.

"That's right, that's exactly it."

Nami glanced at the pursuers behind her out of the corner of her eye, a smirk playing on her lips. "Come on, let me lead you in circles~"

After letting out a soft hum, Nami twisted the handle of Waver, increasing her speed once again, leaving the pursuers behind completely dumbfounded.

"What kind of speed is that?!"

"Stop right there, you woman!"

"Damn it, I can't catch up..."

""

"Quick, shoot her!" a soldier shouted, grabbing his weapon. "Take her down!"

"Weren't we supposed to capture them alive?"

"Nobody said we absolutely have to capture her alive, but we absolutely cannot let her get away, understand!"

If the other party gets away, the young master might get angry!

If the young master gets angry... all of them might die!

The others clearly realized this as well, so they all picked up their weapons and attacked Nami.

"bump!"

"bump!"

"bump!"

"puff!"

"puff!"

"puff!"

A barrage of bullets rained down on Nami, mercilessly piercing her body!

However, because she can transform into elements, she cannot cause any effective damage.

"Damn it, it's useless!" the person behind exclaimed, dumbfounded.

"Damn Logia-type Devil Fruit user!"

Hearing the angry voices of the people behind her, Nami's lips unconsciously curled up.

Natural-type abilities are so useful!

At this moment, Nami was incredibly grateful to Xiyan.

If it weren't for him, she really wouldn't have been able to obtain such a useful ability.

Thinking of this, Nami's smile widened even more.

Then she said, "In order not to dishonor this Devil Fruit, I will treat you well."

After giving a cold laugh, Nami twisted the handle, quickly changed direction, and began to circle around the Thousand Sunny.

"Um?

""

As if she had noticed something, Jorah asked in surprise, "Is she... going in circles?"

This guy probably doesn't think he can steal the ship back by running around it.

Are you kidding me?

I'm on this ship right now, how could I let them take it away?

Thinking of this, Jorah called out, "Don't waste your energy, you little thief!"

"You can't possibly beat me!"

"That's not necessarily true."

Nami glanced at the sky, which was beginning to darken, and said with a sneer, "What if we win?"

"you?"

Jorah shook his head and said, "You really underestimate me."

Although she is an artist who loves art, she is also quite talented.

Therefore, she didn't think these guys could defeat her.

This time, Nami didn't answer; she just continued to go around in circles with those people.

Jorah didn't pay much attention to Nami's reaction, but turned to the people on the submarine and shouted, "You guys, quickly use your Seastone chains to capture this Logia-type Devil Fruit user!"

"this....

'

Hearing Jorah's words, the expressions of his subordinates turned somewhat bitter.

If they could, they would certainly want to catch up with this guy and capture him.

But the problem is... we can't catch up!

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and chase after her!" Jora said. "I don't believe her thing can outrun a submarine!"

"Yes, Miss Jorah!"
