One Piece: The Salted Fish Fruit

"How is this possible! The Navy kidnapped Mia to pay tribute to the World Government!" Upon hearing George's explanation, a group of people immediately surrounded George and asked him questions.

"The World Government demanded that we offer my sister to the World Nobles. At that time, the rebel army attacked the capital. My sister, along with me and some of my father's guards, escaped and wandered the seas in search of warriors to save our country. It was on the island that she learned about you and came to your door."

"I just didn't expect that the navy would just hand over some Beli to the guards and take my sister away from them. I escaped with my life on the line!"

"Waaaaah! Waaaaah! What am I going to do, Nami?" George cried out.

"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! We'll help you find your sister!" Nami wanted to go forward and hug him to comfort him, but Maggie forcefully stepped in and stopped him in her arms.

"Don't be afraid! We'll help you!" Maggie said gently, "Don't even think about taking advantage of Nami."

"Ah! Sister Mabi! No, no, Brother Mabi!" George seemed to understand something instantly, his face turned ashen, and he immediately rushed to the corner to hide himself.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Boom!" The sound of cannon fire rang out.

"The navy has opened fire; prepare for battle!"

"Sever the Void!" Mabi immediately launched a ranged attack to suppress the enemy's artillery fire!

"Rubber! Rubber! Balloon!"

"tornado!"

"Fat face!"

At this point, long-range artillery attacks were no longer effective against the highly capable crew. However, Mabi noticed from the design and equipment of the enemy warship that it was far superior to the small warships in the East China Sea. It was covered with hundreds of cannons, enough to destroy any large ship.

"Nami, get close and unleash a massive lightning strike!" Mami ordered Nami directly.

“Okay, no problem. Mami, the Weather Stick that you had Usopp make is really tailor-made for me. With my abilities, creating small-scale weather effects is no problem.” Nami praised, waving the nunchaku in her hand. The little gadget filled with marble was enough to enhance her combat abilities.

"Haha! It was originally designed specifically for you. Let's see if there are any other devices to add to the Merry later." Maby waved her hand, knocking away a cannonball, and laughed. This completely illogical world can be seen as a magical world, capable of producing various elemental substances, and where one can fight using magical equipment and diligently trained ability users.

"A 300-degree Celsius heat flow cannon!" Suddenly, alarm bells rang in Maby's mind.

"Air shakes!"

"Wow! It's so hot! It's so hot! Mabi, what exactly did you block?!" Luffy, who had turned into a balloon, was splashed with something that Mabi had blocked, causing that patch of skin to turn bright red.

"I don't know, be careful! Don't try to block it with your body!" Maggie said cautiously. The bullet that hit him was colorless, and the shockwave alone burned Luffy. He didn't know what would happen if he actually received it.

"Huh, it was blocked! A Devil Fruit user? The sniper used Seastone bullets to kill that female thief with a sword!" The commander on the warship was surprised to see his attack fail.

"Roger that!"

"Watch out, Mabi!" Mia, who was tied up beside him, shouted when she heard his words, warning Mabi in the distance!

"Heh! A reminder? She can't hear this voice at all. You'd better just obediently let me send you to the Holy Land. The Celestial Dragons specifically requested you, so even if you run to the ends of the earth, no one will accept you."

Mabi focused intently on the distant warships, putting the entire world into a slow, dynamic defensive stance. Ordinary shells were dealt with by her companions; her only concern was the incoming special shells.

"Shatter the Void!" A grayish-white bullet hurtled towards them, traveling at three times the speed of a normal bullet in Maby's world, before stopping as Maby raised her sword and pointed it directly into the air.

"Thump!" The grayish-white bullet fell onto the deck and rolled to one side as the ship tilted.

"Phew!" Mabi breathed a sigh of relief and exited the state. In this state, she could observe that every movement consumed a lot of energy, especially the counterattack after judgment, which consumed even more energy depending on the level of physical ability.

"Impossible!" The sniper on the enemy ship was so shocked that he stood up. The usually effective sea stone bullets had no effect at all.

"Break the air!" Mabi tracked the trajectory of the bullet and spotted the figure on the high observation platform, slashing directly at him. At this moment, the sniper was extremely dangerous for anyone!

Chapter 36 Goal! Help Mia restore her kingdom.

"500-degree Celsius heat flow cannon!" Seeing Maple's powerful reaction, Maple stopped targeting him and instead aimed at Luffy, who had turned into a balloon.

"Ouch!" Luffy, who had turned into a balloon, seemed to have bumped into something and immediately collapsed. He exhaled rapidly, blowing a phantom image above his body towards the sea, instantly creating a mist on the sea surface that obscured the Going Merry.

"Luffy, you stepped on Seastone!" Seeing this, Usopp immediately dragged Luffy aside to recover his strength.

"Thump!" Seeing such a good opportunity, Mabi leaped out and jumped onto the sea surface, entering the hull of the other ship.

"Shock the air!" A circular shockwave attack created a huge hole, carrying countless pieces of wood into it.

"Someone has broken in!" The soldiers still in the cabin immediately drew their swords and slashed at Mabi, determined not to let her damage anything inside the cabin.

"Gum-Gum! Slingshot!" Luffy, not to be outdone, flew directly onto the deck to fight, causing chaos on the deck as figures flew around and fell into the sea and disappeared.

"Sanji, wait a minute!"

"Miss Nami, it's a pleasure to serve you!"

Nami stopped Sanji from jumping over and instead pulled out a rope with purple lightning stones and threw it far into the air above the warship, just as Mabi had arranged earlier.

Immediately afterwards, a thin bolt of lightning shot out from one point on the stick and struck it directly.

"Thundercloud Weather!" With the triggering of this lightning, the thrown thunderstone exploded like dynamite hitting a spark, with strands of electricity connecting to form a thunderball with a diameter of twenty meters, which fell onto the warship.

"Boom!" The thunderclouds that fell on the ship were detonated by the ironware on the ship, forming a purple barrier that surrounded the entire warship and spread towards the metal parts, baking and heating them.

Instantly, countless screams erupted from the warship! The electric current transmitted to the steel at such high temperatures that anyone's skin would be stuck to it, flesh and blood intertwined; any movement could cause the skin to tear.

"Boom! Boom!" Countless windowsills protruding from the cannon barrels spewed out raging flames, and booming explosions echoed inside the ship's cabin from time to time. The steel-cast cannon barrels directly ignited the gunpowder inside, causing them to explode.

"Run! It's coming!"

"What a terrifying ability!" Zoro muttered to himself as he removed the knife from his mouth.

"Wow! Nami, who can use magic, please allow me to express my sincere love with a warm hug!" Sanji floated over with hearts in his eyes.

"Nami-neechan is amazing! She can actually use Thunder Stone like that!" Jack exclaimed in admiration, determined to latch onto her.

"Whew! That was close!" Luffy, who had just descended from the sky, wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead and said with a sigh, then yelled at Nami.

"Nami! I'm still up there! You're going to electrocute me!"

"Oh dear! You're a rubber man, so none of that applies to you," Nami replied, waving her hand dismissively.

"Haha! I'm a rubber man, lightning has no effect on me!" Luffy laughed and dropped the woman from his arm.

"Sister! Sister!" George saw the woman Luffy had abandoned and immediately went forward to untie the ropes and called out.

"Little brother! I'm out now?" the girl asked happily, looking at herself.

"Yes, it was Luffy who brought you out."

"Lightning strikes are terrifying!" Mabi ran out, her whole body emitting blue smoke. The weapons she usually carried had now given her a severe electric shock massage, and she was still in a tingling, numb state.

"Luffy, pull me over! My legs are numb!" Maggie shouted at Luffy, who was laughing loudly by the railing.

"Alright! Mabi! Rubber Rubber!" Zoro stretched out his arm and pulled Mabi over, unfortunately becoming Mabi's flesh cushion as he was shot.

"Thanks, Zoro!" Mabi said thank you and left immediately, knowing she'd get hacked to pieces if she didn't.

"I'm going to kill you both!" He drew his sword and slashed at Maple Luffy.

"Miss Mia, this is a treat I made for you to cheer you up!" Sanji immediately brought out a plate of snacks and began to fawn over you.

"Turn the rudder and set sail!" Nami ordered immediately upon seeing that the mission was complete.

"okay!"

"Tashigi, board the ship and rescue them!" Smoker ordered directly, looking at the defeated warship.

"Yes! The Straw Hat Pirates?"

"Let them go this time. We won't get involved in those corrupt noble incidents, but the soldiers are innocent."

"A lightning-type fruit? It seems these pirates are getting more and more dangerous!" Smoker pondered, gazing at the Straw Hat Pirates in the distance.

···

"Wow! I've escaped!" Mia exclaimed joyfully, her arms outstretched as she faced the wind and the sea.

“Sister, what are we going to do now? We have no guards, no boat, and no home.” George became dejected.

"No, little brother! I'm here, I can help you build a home!" Mia comforted her brother, holding him close. Then, she released him and bowed to Luffy.

"Brother Luffy, I would like to ask you to help my brother restore his country. After all, our country is a kingdom that the World Government has joined. They will not recognize the identity of the rebels. My brother is the only heir to this country and will be recognized by them. If we succeed, we will reward you with the treasures of the kingdom’s treasury. You can take whatever treasures are inside."

"No problem! Make sure to fill my ship with food." Luffy laughed loudly.

Maggie knew that Luffy would agree without exception when he heard her request, since the purpose of their trip was to help solve various difficulties encountered along the way.

"But it's such a cliché prince-saves-princess plot!" Maby complained, covering her face with one hand.

"My lovely Mia, I absolutely agree to your proposal! Please accept my marriage proposal!" Sanji knelt down and took her hand, pleading for her hand.

Before they could succeed, Nami pulled them aside to talk.

"Nami-san, will you accept my proposal? I love it so much!" Sanji pretended to pounce on her, but Nami punched him to the ground.

"Mia, shall we discuss the payment?"

"Okay, sister!"

Upon hearing this, Zoro took out his equipment and began to maintain his sword: "I want to test the sharpness of my new sword!"

"I'll participate in anything that enhances my combat power, so I can better protect everyone." Jack said, lifting several steel ingots with one hand as he exercised.

Whenever he had time, Usopp would pull out his workbench and continue forging his weapons, adding the seastone powder he had polished to prepare for strengthening himself.

Chapter 37 Convergence of Four Directions Cave Island

"Cave Island, as the name suggests, is an island full of caves. Because it is filled with countless caves, it has become the best place to hide treasures. Legend has it that it contains treasures buried by pirates throughout the ages," Mia introduced, looking at the island full of holes in the distance.

"Wow! Treasure! Sanji prepared a pirate bento for me, I'm going on an adventure!" Luffy shouted with sparkling eyes after hearing this.

"No problem, it'll be ready in a minute." Sanji's voice came from the kitchen.

"However, you should be careful about the environment created by the various caves. After all, this island is also known as the most dangerous island. All those caves were created by spewing out various flames, hurricanes, lightning, and sandstorms."

"Haha! That's more fun!" Luffy laughed loudly, completely oblivious to the fact that this was happening.

"I think I've contracted a disease that prevents me from going to the island!" Usopp said, his legs trembling.

"No problem, you can stay and guard the ship," everyone laughed.

"No, I want to go too!" Usopp exclaimed in surprise, now that he was left all alone.
