One Piece: The Salted Fish Fruit

A moment later, several vines, each several meters in diameter, emerged from within, wrapped around the Sunny, and pulled it into the portal.

"Luffy's mysterious identity? That's intriguing. I'd like to see what he has that makes you all willingly follow him. After all, I fought alongside you! Any one of you has the strength to fight us so-called Supernovas!" Hearing Maggie's explanation, Maureen finally relaxed and smiled.

Mabi looked up at the bright sky, guessing that the reporter had already sent out the information. After all, she had asked him to spread the information he wanted to edit throughout the world within three days. They only needed to use Den Den Mushi to transmit the information, and then newspapers in various places would print it and spread it all over the world!

He looked up at Dibaruna's slightly taller body and shouted.

"Diva and the members of the Knights worked all night, so I'll treat you to dinner."

"no problem!"

"Let's go together, Maureen."

"Alright! It seems we won't have the chance to eat Sanji's food again this time."

"There will be more in the future!"

Chapter 177 Heading to Marineford! The Group's Destiny! (Part 1)

Two days later!

Mabi, huddled at the bottom of the cabin, felt unwell due to the presence of the surrounding sea stone. Suddenly, she stopped abruptly, her whole body tensing up. She slowly moved, leaning against the sea stone and hiding in the shadows. Her eyes were closed, and she remained motionless, sensing the flow of the surrounding air. The entire three-dimensional structure of the cabin space was revealed to her senses. A soldier walked across the side passageway.

"The cabins are really hard to get along in; they're cramped and crowded with people."

After a long while, Mabi opened her eyes, slowly exhaled, and moved away from the sea stone components again, muttering to herself. She took out her long sword, pierced through the thick wooden hull, and looked at the Sabaody Archipelago receding into the distance through the newly opened hole, feeling a mix of emotions.

Two days ago, after taking down the portal and handing it over to Shakky to give to any of her companions, Maggie secretly infiltrated the naval base on the Sabaody Archipelago to learn about the internal structure of the warships and lay in wait. Only today did a warship head to the Marine Headquarters, so she hid in the cabin and went with it.

Unfortunately, Impel Down is not an island but a man-made structure with no magnetic field. It can only be reached using a Vivre Card, which is held by only a Vice Admiral. Having not encountered any Vice Admirals in the Sabaody Archipelago and unable to find a Vivre Card, I can only head alone to Marine Headquarters to make further plans.

He reached out and pressed his hand against the wooden hole, squeezing the surrounding wood to prevent sunlight from getting in. He then hid himself in the corner again, gazing at the dark ceiling, pondering and waiting for the warship to arrive at its destination.

I wonder if everyone has stopped flying yet, since it's been exactly three days since we separated!

at the same time!

Nine-Eyed Fox Island! Two plumes of energy descended from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground with two muffled thuds! A figure instantly sprang up and roared wildly!

"Aaaaah! The air mass has finally burst! Merry, let's quickly build a plane and get back! Maple is facing a combat power on par with Aokiji!!! Our friends are dealing with some robots! That wretched robot bear actually ambushed us!"

"Brother Luffy! I need the materials in the metal space fragment. They were all destroyed by that admiral! With the metal and some electricity absorbed from the air, we can go back!" A blue and white sphere the size of a basketball floated in front of Luffy and replied.

"Metal?"

"Yes, it's metal!"

"I still have some here! Hurry up and make some!" Upon hearing Merry's reply, Luffy immediately took out some loose material from the spatial fragment embedded in his arm and threw it on the ground!

In an instant, incendiary cannons, laser cannons, clothing, Bailey, food with bones and flesh, and golden boxing gloves were all piled up on the ground into a small mountain!

"Too little! Not enough to make a blade! We need to buy some metal." After a quick glance, Melly said disappointedly that the amount of metal was only enough to make half a propeller blade.

"Right! Buy, buy! I still have the Berries Nami gave me! If we don't have enough, I'll trade my treasure for them! Merry, let's hurry! That mountain is the highest, we're sure we'll find a place where people live." In his haste, Luffy grabbed all the supplies on the ground, stuffed all the Berries into his golden gauntlets, grabbed a meat bone and started munching on it as he ran off!

Klaigana Island!

"Whoosh! Something else flew in from Kumasi! Let's go see!" A pink-haired girl holding a small parasol and a teddy bear sat on the top of the castle, excitedly watching the cloud of gas rushing in the distance! Her figure swayed, and two white phantoms emerged from her body, hovering in the sky and following the illusory figure as it rushed into the distance.

Peach Island!

"Damn it! Where is the diamond! Where is it! That demon could transform into diamond armor and diamond walls before! Why can I only become charcoal! This caused Nami, Luffy, Robin and the others to be knocked away by the tyrant!" Sanji, bursting out of the bubble, slammed his fists on the ground, tears of regret streaming from his eyes!

"Hehe! Hehe! What a sad boy!" A light, melodious laugh reached Sanji's ears from afar!

"What a beautiful voice! It's a lovely lady!" With tears blurring his vision, Sanji could only catch a glimpse of a white dress flash by through the golden hair and disappear!

"Ah! Beautiful lady, may I ask where this place is?!" With hearts gleaming in his eyes and a woman-obsessed mentality, Sanji immediately sprang into action and gave chase!

Visalia!

"Hehehe! Something fell to the ground!" An old man in a blue robe and a pointed hat looked at the sound of something falling in front of him and asked in confusion.

"Häagen-Dazs, do things fall from the sky when you're there?" asked the old man beside him, who was holding a cane and wearing an animal skin.

"Hehehe! It's indispensable! Because we exchanged some things, someone has been transporting the materials they've collected to us!" The blue-robed old man chuckled as his figure moved.

"Huh? It's a beautiful young girl! We don't need her!" The woman in the pit looked at him with surprise.

"Nami?"

"Do you know?"

"Yes! She's a member of the Straw Hat Crew we mentioned before." The old man in the animal skin said, his lips twitching. He hadn't forgotten how those four women had rendered his people speechless in their pursuit of material things!

"His body was covered in wounds, indicating that he had engaged in a fierce battle."

Boeing Islands!

"Usopp, don't run! It's dangerous here!" A loud shout came from the beetle-like black armor!

"Aaaaah! Get out of the way! Hercules has a ship, I need to get back quickly! My comrades are still fighting!" Usopp, clutching a laser cannon, blasted through the beasts charging at him, clearing a path for them, and shouted!

"This is a moving island; nobody wants to stay here, so you can't go out to sea at all." Hercules descended from the sky and stopped right in front of Usopp, making it impossible for him to move forward!

"No boat! Then I'll build one! I can use the Wind-Blowing Shells to sail back!" Usopp said confidently, holding a Wind-Blowing Shell in each hand. He then pulled out a short sword from his backpack and began cutting the wood he had previously smashed.

"Ah! You!" Hercules was speechless with anger upon seeing his actions.

Balzik!

Jack heard the whistling wind in his ears, and the unusually strong smell filled his nostrils, instantly clearing his mind! Gleaming fangs instantly came into view!

"Cloudburst Fist!" Jack raised his tiger paw, and a white cloud formed between his palms, exploding instantly. Jack's body, the size of a fat cat, was propelled away by the blast! In mid-flight, he realized that what was about to tear him apart was a huge dinosaur head. If he had been a step later, he would have become its snack!

"Where am I?! That wretched bear sent everyone flying! We have to get back quickly! Big Brother Mabi will definitely deal with that admiral, I have to get back right away!" Jack, now back in human form, extended his sharp claws, digging deep furrows into the ground, and looked back warily at the dinosaur that was shaking its head.

Updates resumed!

Chapter 178 The Destiny of the Group! (Part 2)

The sky above Judiciary Island never sleeps!

"Let me out!" In her serpentine form, Mia slammed her fists against the wall, which seemed to be made of steel. Her once pristine white arms were now covered in bloodstains, and red powder scattered in the air with the vibrations. Crackling sounds emanated from her arms, which could no longer maintain their shape and instantly became S-shaped, drooping limply on her shoulders under the force of gravity! The intense pain could not shake her strong will, and her body continued to slam against the wall, producing a series of booming sounds! Until her bones were broken, her body slumped to the ground, and her black serpentine tail lifted weakly.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty! You are not yet awake and you are too weak to let you out! If I had been careless before, you would have been destroyed by the enemy, leaving not even a single cell. Even your regenerative body would have died once it was destroyed!" A cold voice rang out throughout the huge metal space, completely unmoved by the girl who was slumped on the floor.

"Everyone still needs me! I can't, I can't stay here any longer! Since you call me Your Majesty, I order you to let me out!"

Mia lay limply on the floor, staring at the cold metal ceiling. She endured the tearing pain in her body, struggling to suppress a scream. Countless tiny fleshy teeth sprouted from her muscles, pulsating and scooping out excess bone fragments. Her entire body was growing and forming at a visible speed, enveloped by layers of muscle. Her body was completely transformed. Lying on the ground, Mia leaped up again, her long snake tail slamming heavily against the steel wall! The entire space rumbled!

"Your Majesty! This is absolutely impossible! It was my fault for letting you out before, which almost led to your death! This time, I will definitely not let you go out and face danger again!" The other party's tone was unusually firm.

South China Sea! Kingdom of Dorino!

"Ahhh! Where did everyone go! Chopper misses you all so much!" Chopper, his body limp, lay on a withered branch, gazing at the distant ocean with tears streaming down his face. His powerless body filled him with immense fear, for he had never been to such an unfamiliar place before.

"Angelia, where are you? Quickly bring me back to everyone!" Feeling the sea breeze blowing again, Chopper's eyes welled up with tears once more, unaware that a giant bird's beak was slowly opening its mouth above him.

San Lorenzo!

"Bishop! We've made contact with the Revolutionary Army!" A soldier carrying a flare on his back and wrapped in bandages burst into the ruined building and shouted.

"We've finally made contact! That's great! God hasn't abandoned us after all; He's sent His messengers to rescue us! We just need to hold out until they arrive to achieve victory!" Upon hearing his soldiers' reply, the middle-aged man who was looking at the map suddenly brightened up. He crossed his arms and placed a cross between his palms, leaving only a small blank space on the map that was covered in red circles.

"But the bishop! They said it would take at least five days to arrive!" Seeing his commander's delighted expression, the soldier standing before him hesitated but ultimately decided to reveal the rest of the information.

"Five days? The encirclement is only fifty kilometers away. How can we hold out for five days!"

Just then, a commotion came from outside, and the sound, even through the broken walls, clearly entered the room, instantly waking the people who were silent and unsure how to face the difficulties ahead.

"Ah! It's an angel! Has God sent angels to save us?"

"Pure white wings! Golden radiance surrounding her! She truly is an angel!"

"God has indeed not abandoned us!"

"Thank you, divine messenger!"

"Ah! Where am I?! There are so many injured people down here! But I have to hurry back to help! Mabi is still holding off that Marine Admiral, and I don't know if Chopper can take care of himself." Angelia's clear voice came from the air as she hovered in the air, golden light flashing in front of her as she guarded the chaotic and noisy crowd below, and she flapped her wings as if to leave.

"Your Grace, please wait a moment! Didn't you come to help us?" The people below became agitated upon seeing Angelia leave and shouted to stop her from going.

"No, I landed here by accident! I still need to find our companions! Many of you are injured, let me help you! Just once! It's God's command!" Seeing the injured people still trying to climb up, Angelia couldn't bear it and waved the short stick in her hand, placing a golden sphere tens of meters in diameter below to envelop the injured people.

"Ah! It really is an angel sent down by God!" The injured person in the golden sphere below looked at the healing of his wounds and his eyes lit up with respect.

Namakola Island! The Kingdom of Harahetania!

Inside a dilapidated wooden hut, intricate and distorted characters filled the center of the room. In the dim light of a fire, a group of people in black robes were prostrate on the ground, their mouths uttering unified prayers!

"We pray! We pray! Let those abominable people suffer terror and death! Please grant our wish, Lord Satan!"

"Please accept our prayers, Lord Satan!"

With a loud bang, the entire wooden house was blasted open by an unknown force, and a figure emerged from the dust. Looking around, he found himself in unfamiliar territory and slowly uttered, "Where have I been thrown? What is this place?!"

"Ah! White bones! Ragged clothes! It's Lord Satan! We've truly prayed to Lord Satan!"

"Lord Satan! Please help us! We are willing to offer our blood, our treasure, and our lives!"

"Hmm..." Brook looked around, a soft snore escaping his nose, and turned to the only blonde girl hidden in the black robe, speaking softly.

"May I admire your **?"

"Huh!" The girl's pupils dilated as she screamed in surprise, lightly covering her open lips with the back of her hand and pulling her whole body backward.

"Damn it! Agree to Lord Satan's request and show him!" The old man wearing a black hood was furious when he saw the girl's actions!

"Wow! Hoo!" Soon enough, Brooke's comfortable snoring could be heard!

Baldigo!

"Has that idiot Sabo still not been found? The Navy has started a war with Whitebeard at this time! Could Sabo have gone there?" A girl with orange hair said, flipping through the newspaper in her hand.

"Yes, the Chief of Staff disappeared yesterday morning without any notice, and none of the people scattered in various places have seen him," the soldier next to him, wearing a green cloak and feathers, replied, putting down the Den Den Mushi in front of him.

"Ace! Luffy! His two younger brothers are now suffering together. Where is Sabo going?" The girl frowned, three newspapers spread out in front of her, deep in thought.

"Have your people on the Sabaody Archipelago find out detailed information about the Straw Hat Pirates and get it to me as soon as possible!"
