Konoha: I, Naruto, will eat the Forest-Forest Fruit!

"A pessimistic ghost!"

Perona waved her hand, and the Teru Teru Bozu-like smart ghost rushed towards Naruto.

call out--

Enma appeared in front of Naruto.

"Insolent fool!"

"I'll take you right now... ah~"

The Sunny Doll version of the clever ghost passed directly through the ape demon's body.

boom--

The ape demon instantly knelt on the ground, head bowed, his face filled with utter despair.

"I shouldn't have been born... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry for being born an ape..."

Seeing the ape demon enter a state of negativity and pessimism, she covered her mouth and chuckled.

It carries the ethereal sound unique to ghosts.

"Halahara~"

"Your turn next!"

"Become my adorable doll~"

Perona pointed at Naruto.

"A pessimistic ghost!"

The teru teru bozu-like version of the clever ghost flew over.

It disappeared the instant it passed through Naruto's body.

Perona blinked, and then a backlash struck.

terror!

Perona trembled involuntarily all over.

Her pupils contracted as she stared at Naruto in disbelief.

"Stop fooling around, you little devil."

"The Ape Demon still has things to do."

Upon hearing this, Perona blinked. "Little devil?"

"No, you're not allowed to order me around!"

Naruto started walking towards the castle.

Seeing that Naruto was completely unaffected by her Devil Fruit ability, he simply walked past her and stepped onto the lake.

Perona quickly chased after her.

"Don't be so fierce, you're scaring people to death!"

As she spoke, Perona waved her hand, and another ghost passed through the ape demon.

The ape demon slowly recovered.

After bowing to Naruto, he walked into the forest.

Lolitas are great; with a little nurturing, they can become gothic lolis.

Perona noticed that Naruto was going in the wrong direction, so she quickly walked past him and her soul returned to her body.

Seeing that Naruto completely ignored her, she immediately felt upset.

She secretly followed behind, entering the castle with Naruto.

After a short while, Naruto stopped.

He turned around with a sense of helplessness.

"What are you going to do?"

Perona smiled slightly. "That's great!"

"If I want to do it, I can definitely succeed!"

"Don't have a blank expression, it's not cute at all!"

Perona's tone changed again in the last sentence.

Looking at Naruto, who was covered in bandages, she giggled again:

"From now on, you'll be at my beck and call."

He took two steps forward and tapped Naruto's chest.

"Did you hear that?!"

flutter--

Then, he hugged Naruto tightly.

"Be cute, okay?"

"Now I won't be alone."

Shila-

However, Naruto only moved his body slightly, and all the thick bandages snapped.

Perona plopped down on the ground.

"I'll leave one thing behind and then I'll go."

As he spoke, Naruto suddenly changed direction and walked towards the door.

"Are you here?"

"They really have a strong will to live."

Perona stared blankly at Naruto.

She didn't realize what was happening until Naruto pushed open the door.

"Hello!"

Naruto did not stop.

Perona had nowhere to put her little hands.

He lowered his head, secretly glanced at Naruto, and then looked at his own hands.

Finally, he chased after her, looking embarrassed.

Gritting her teeth, she said with a hint of arrogance, "Are you just going to leave like that?!"

Naruto glanced at the dark, narrow passage, where a green figure appeared at the end.

He lay on the ground, crawling with difficulty.

His body was covered in shocking wounds.

Just then, Naruto's view was suddenly blocked.

The enormous Perona blocked his way.

He hugged his knees with both hands and let out a ghostly, ethereal laugh.

Without a doubt, she was exposed while sitting there.

"I won't let you go so easily."

"Play with me a little longer!"

A giant version of a Teru Teru Bozu (Sunny Doll) character, the wise ghost, appears.

But before it could get close to Naruto, it disappeared on its own.

The backlash reappeared.

Perona was so frightened that her whole body trembled like a leaf.

But she still didn't give up.

When her Devil Fruit powers were no longer useful, she chased after him and grabbed Naruto's leg.

"Please play with me a little longer... Waaah~"

They can change their faces in an instant, and the little pearl can fall away just as quickly.

......

"What am I doing?"

Perona followed behind Naruto.

Watching him lift the person lying on the ground.

After casually tossing it into a dark space, he headed towards the top of the castle.

"Are you a demon?"

Perona suddenly asked in a soft, cute voice.

"They don't even acknowledge me... My heart is breaking."

tick-

"How pitiful!"

Perona cried again.

"What do you want?"

"Stay here or leave with me?"

Naruto replied helplessly.

Perona rushed to him.

"don't want."

"You can just stay here with me."

"This place is so nice, dark and damp~"

Naruto waved his hand, "That won't be the case for long."

"snort!"

"I won't let you do that."

"Besides... I don't need an impossible maid."

"Hmm." Naruto nodded slightly, then pushed open the window in the castle ceiling.

Zoro has been thrown into Impel Down's prison and is locked up with idiots.

All that's left is to plant the red flag here myself.

Perona noticed that Naruto was ignoring her again.

He immediately lowered his head and muttered sinisterly, "He has the ability to leave here."

"If I can use him, I can get back to Thriller Bark."

"With just a little trickery, he'll work his ass off for me!"

"Finally, I'll manipulate him completely, find Lord Moria, and then cruelly abandon him!"

hum-

Perona burst into laughter, her eyes sparkling.

"That's a great idea!"

However, after she climbed up to the ceiling, she saw Naruto plant the red and yellow flags.

"what?"

"Is that his pirate flag?"

wrong!

"Damn it, that guy's trying to escape!"

"No, he didn't come by boat!"

Perona panicked.

"Wait a moment!"

She quickly called out.

But when she's not in ghost form, she doesn't have such a good physique.

"Lure him first, then order him around!"

Then, Perona hugged Naruto's leg again.

They ascended into the sky with Naruto.

"So tired!"

"Hello!"

"It's tiring to hold on like this... Ah~ I can't hold on much longer, I'm going to fall."

"I'll die if I fall... I'm so pitiful~"

In the forest on the other side.

The ape demon has defeated the leader of the baboon army.

He replaced the leader of the baboon army and became the new leader.

"where are you going?"

Perona eventually climbed onto Naruto's back, but finding it tiring, she simply sat on Naruto's shoulders.

"The Kingdom of Dressrosa"

"I'll lock you up in Impel Down on the way."

Perona: "..."

"How cruel you are!"

"So that's why you never stopped me from keeping up with you, right?!"

Naruto nodded in response to Perona's questioning.

"It just so happens that we're on the way. Your Devil Fruit ability is also special. It will take some time to deal with the large army that arrives."

"So, I walked right into a trap?" Perona burst into tears again.

"I can be your servant, please don't send me to Impel Down, okay?"

"Moria will soon be locked up too, awaiting his final judgment," Naruto said.

Perona was speechless.

He simply hugged his knees, lowered his head, and remained silent, feigning helplessness.

"I've never killed anyone!"

"I haven't done anything wrong, please forgive me this once?"

As she spoke, Perona suddenly realized something.

She lowered her head and looked at the ground below.

She immediately woke up; she wasn't in ghost form anymore, and if she really fell, she would die.

Then, it was noticed that there seemed to be no strong winds around, unlike the winds experienced during high-speed flight.

"Who exactly are you?"

"Wow...such powerful strength."

puff--

Perona opened her burgundy umbrella.

Block out the glaring sunlight.

Seeing that Naruto ignored her, she wasn't angry. She swung her toes and watched the scenery rushing past.

Finally, unable to bear the loneliness any longer, she swung her toes and said in a coquettish tone:

"Hey, I don't even know your name yet!"

Tell me!

"Naruto Uzumaki"

Naruto slapped away her groping hand.

"Oh~"

"We've arrived at Impel Down."

Naruto's words completely stunned Perona.

She quickly tightened her grip on Naruto's neck, "I'm your servant!"

"How could you bear to send me to be locked up in the pulverizer plant?"

"When did you become my servant?"

"Just now!"

"What kind of servant rides on his master's head?"

Perona: "..."

"You're going to the Kingdom of Dressrosa... I know where it is!"

"Besides, if you go alone, you'll definitely lack servants to serve you tea and water!"

"Please, let me go... I don't want to go to jail!"

As she spoke, Perona puffed out her little lips.

With tears welling in her eyes, she said, "Naruto-sama~"

"It's so lonely being alone, please~"

Naruto's lips curled slightly. "You're quite interesting."

"Alright, then come with me."

"Yay!"

......

at the same time.

The Kingdom of Dressrosa.

The territory of Doflamingo, a former Celestial Dragon and one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

At this moment, Doflamingo has returned to the kingdom.

In the center of the kingdom stands a magnificent castle.

Doflamingo walked in with a dark expression.

"Get all the cadres here for a meeting!"

Doflamingo held a newspaper in his hand, and his Den Den Mushi kept making sounds.

Before long, Doflamingo took his seat in the first place.

Looking down at the family cadres who had gathered below.

Doflamingo's expression turned extremely serious.

"Naval Headquarters has been destroyed!"

"The Whitebeard Pirates are now defunct!"

"Now... even the Red-Haired Pirates are gone."

"It won't be long before they arrive."

"Naruto Uzumaki... The World Government has issued a new bounty, and his bounty is now the highest ever!"

"Even the former Pirate King Roger didn't have such a high bounty!"

Doflamingo's heart sank to the bottom.

"Get ready, they'll be coming to the new world soon."

In the New World, no one knew this news except him.

Even the Five Elders have not received any accurate information so far.

The World Government probably still thinks that its top henchman, the Navy Headquarters, is still engaged in a major battle.

After all, even Den Den Mushi (snail phone) can't be used anymore.

"Young Master, what should we do?"

"The Sticky-Sticky Fruit user, Trebol, asked with a worried expression."

"There's still plenty of time... enough for me to make my plans... at the very least, to save our lives in the end."

Doflamingo's expression turned somewhat ferocious. He picked up the Den Den Mushi and said in a deep voice:

"it's me."

"I have resigned from my position as a Shichibukai."
