One Piece: The Salted Fish Fruit

"Paralysis grenade!" Without saying a word, a smoldering grenade was sent over.

"Go back!" He didn't know what it was, but judging from the hostility the other party showed, it was definitely not a good person. Sanji kicked it back as he approached the door.

"Resist arrest! Resist arrest! Open fire! Open fire!"

"Scatter! Find Usopp and the others, and take them away!" Luffy shouted.

"Rubber! Rubber! Machine gun!" Countless fist shadows flew and shot, hitting the people in front and bombarding the nearby buildings.

"Mabi, go!"

“Received!” Maggie knew exactly where Luffy wanted to go; there was no other place but this palace.

"His Majesty and the others are in disarray!"

"Yay! Angry and panicked pirates are the most fun. The Fourfold Purgatory is just right for them to play with. Hang that child up there as bait to lure them over."

"Yes!" A figure at the very top of the palace gazed into the distance as explosions occasionally rang out, and chuckled evilly.

"Damn it! What are these things? Didn't we say there was no meat?" Mabi thought to herself as she slapped away the huge fanged monster in front of her.

"Mabi, they're so strong!" Luffy, who was also no match for them and was sent flying, continued to bounce back and shouted.

"Go from the sky; there's no need for unnecessary fighting below."

"Rubber! Rubber! Slingshot!"

···

“Swordsman, this doesn’t seem to be the way to the prison,” Robin said with a smile as she followed Zoro.

"Stop nagging! I know the way; just follow the clouds in the sky." Zoro said angrily upon hearing her voice.

"But this is the seaside."

"···"

···

"Brother Chopper, are we going to the palace? After all, they were captured because of us," Angelia asked, flapping her two wings as she flew through the air.

"Yes, that's fine."

"Alright! Let's go to the palace now!"

···

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Why are Mia and the others capturing us?" Nami asked as she ran.

"Maybe it's because we're two weak girls, it feels easier to catch us," Mia said uncertainly.

"Damn it! Weather Clouds." The Weather Staff, inlaid with thunderstone, was unleashed without any time buffer.

···

"Where is Jack?" George asked weakly, unable to move a muscle and having no strength at all.

"I don't know either, they're tied up really tight," Jack said weakly, now in his humanoid white tiger form.

"Yay! What a unique white tiger! It's much better than the beastmen I made. You'll be the test subject."

···

"Usopp!" Luffy and Maggie, who were rushing over, saw Usopp hanging on the city wall and ran towards him.

"What! Air blast!" Mabi, who had walked in front, fell straight down into the air. When she tried to step on the air to get up, it was blocked above. The air blast attempted to shatter the stone wall above, but the powerful reaction force pushed her back.

"Mabi!" Luffy, who was already clinging to the stone wall of the city, shouted at the empty ground below.

"Haha! Straw Hat Luffy, you should worry about yourself! Paralysis Bullets!" Several black objects emitting white smoke flew towards Luffy and enveloped him.

"That woman has entered the Blindness Purgatory! This kid likes to scream, so let him enter the Voiceless and Deaf Purgatory." Several figures appeared in front of the limp Luffy, dragged him and threw him into another open hole, and everything returned to calm.

"Everyone!" Usopp, trapped on the city wall, burst into tears, watching helplessly as Maple and Luffy were ambushed and he was completely limp and unable to help at all.

"Haha! Welcome to the Blind Purgatory! Here you will experience the thrill of a world plunged into darkness, and now, first come, arrows."

Mabi felt only darkness and emptiness before her eyes, but her mind was focused, sensing her surroundings. In a world without eyes, she could only rely on the sensations she had gained from constant battles.

"Clang!" The sword was swung to intercept the rapidly approaching object.

"Haha! She's quite a good swordswoman. One is no problem, but what about ten?" Seeing that the weapons had failed to achieve their goal, he wasn't annoyed and planned the next wave of attacks.

"That's Usopp!" Zoro exclaimed in confusion as Robin led him to the front of the palace, but the deserted area still made him draw his sword and remain vigilant.

"Boom!" The ground suddenly collapsed, pulling the two of them underground.

"Damn it!" A roar couldn't mask the fact that he was falling.

"Haha, it's more fun to catch a lot of them. Let a bunch of your own companions lose their eyes and ears, and then put them in an area full of traps. That kind of infighting is the best outcome."

“There are still three companions left. Leave this bait there, and someone will eventually come and take him away.” With that, he drew his sword, cut the hanging rope, and kicked the man to the center of the now restored ground.

"Damn it, I can't see anything!" Zoro cursed, staring into the darkness before him.

"Swordsman, please wait a moment." The composed Robin, also staring into the darkness, stopped him, using her cloned eyes to survey the surroundings.

"There's a potion here that blinded us, but actually the surroundings are bright," Robin explained, withdrawing her temporarily blinded clone eye. In just a moment, Robin, who was navigating this world, already knew what was about to happen.

“Swordsman, if you carry me, I can help you find your way.”

"it is good!"

"Nami, I found Usopp," Mia alerted, noticing the human-shaped body lying not far away.

Chapter 43 Battle in the Dark

"Roar!"

"Boom!" A building collapsed, causing chaos.

"Damn it! Keep increasing the dosage, this damn tiger is actually a Zoan Devil Fruit user."

"Brother Chopper, something's happened over there."

"Angelia, let's go." The two, who were still in the air preparing to find a precise landing spot, saw the chaos that had been caused and immediately landed there.

What's wrong with her eyes?! Mabi broke the arrows stuck in her body, rendering her unable to see anything, yet the enemy's arrows still hit her accurately. It was impossible to dodge them by instinct or by hearing the whooshing sound.

"Not bad! You can still detect sounds? Then I'll remove them for you so you can have a proper duel with them." The voice that had just entered rang out, and his tone clearly revealed his joy, though Maggie was unaware of this.

"Ding, ding!" Accompanied by a crisp metallic sound, Mabi found that her hearing had also become desolate, as if she had fallen into endless darkness. Only the solid ground beneath her feet made her feel that she existed on the ground, but she found that her skin had become sensitive, and countless wind sounds brushed against her skin, giving her a tingling sensation.

A fist? Mabi clearly felt a huge wave coming towards her and turned to the side to dodge.

"Bang!" Mabi only felt an unusual pain in her shoulder and dodged the first attack, but she only felt a slight sensation of the second attack and did not dodge it. Was it because the moment of dodging caused her body's senses to be disordered and she did not notice it?

Again!

"Cloud-Dispelling Palm!" A powerful wave of energy condenses and compresses in the palm, striking the incoming fist directly.

"Crack!" A crisp sound rang out, but Mabi, who had been deprived of her hearing, did not hear it. However, the clear vibration from her palm indicated that the opponent's bones had been shattered and she had lost her ability to fight.

"Slash!" Without giving Maby any time to react, a thin man wielding a long sword lunged forward and slashed at Maby's face.

"A slash?" Relying on his sense of the air, he understood the shape of the huge gust of wind forming in front of him. He dodged and stepped forward, throwing an upward hook punch at the opponent's chin, sending him flying.

This time it's a spear! Mabi remained silent amidst the surging air around her. Although she had no eyes or ears, the surging air around her could be clearly felt on her skin. She observed the air flow, analyzed the shapes of various air currents, and then engaged in combat.

"Who the hell is this?!" The surrounding voices shouted. Even though their eyes and ears were cut off, the other party seemed to know everything around him and counterattacked without missing a beat. However, when the attacks hit his body intermittently, it was to no avail. He didn't care about those minor injuries at all.

"Withdraw everyone! Use throat lozenges to paralyze his voice and lure him into the arena!" a shout rang out.

Was it withdrawn? Feeling the surging air currents that caused chaos from the departure, the entire space gradually calmed down, with only the vibrations caused by my own movements remaining.

I wonder how the other companions are doing? I wonder if they can solve the problem in a world without senses.

"Mabi! Usopp! Zoro! Everyone's over there!" Luffy shouted silently, using the ability of his fists to deflect the walls to destroy everything in his path as he rampaged through the crowd.

"Mr. Zoro, there's no one in front of us, just a wall." Robin, clinging to Zoro's back and relying on her ability to replicate eyes, directed the battle, and they made it through without any major incidents.

“Okay, let me cut it open,” Zoro replied.

"Who are these people?" Nami asked, kicking the charred man at her feet while holding up her afro.

"Nami, could you please not use lightning in such a confined space? We're all going to get shocked," Mia said helplessly, touching her round, fluffy, soft, golden hair.

"Haha! Isn't lightning great? It directly eliminated the opponent's potion before it was released, and also eliminated the neurotoxins in the body."

“Me!” Usopp stood up, puffing out blue smoke.

"Luffy, Maple, Zoro, and Robin are in danger. I saw them fall down too," Usopp hurriedly recounted the scene he had witnessed after recovering from being struck by lightning.

"Let's get out of here quickly! These toxins can numb people's nerves. Those violent freaks will definitely go berserk in that kind of environment," Nami said hurriedly, realizing the seriousness of the situation.

···

What's going on?! Mabi stepped out of the passage and found countless chaotic wind layers rushing past her.

"Haha! Welcome everyone to the arena! The winner can leave! Although you can't hear me! Yohoho!"

"I also won't tell you that fighting in a dark world without eyes, ears, and voice would absolutely drive people mad and make our medicine work perfectly."

"Plus, the fact that you later discovered that all your former enemies were actually your comrades must have made that scream even more delightful."

"Release the berserk potion! Bloodlust potion! Add the lures in!" In an instant, dozens of people in protective suits descended and crouched on large, moving knives, axes, and swords, holding their weapons and staring at Maple and Luffy as they rushed in.

Mabi slowly waded forward, using her sense of the air to find gaps between them, as countless vertically swaying blades passed by her body from the front and back.

I really want to vent! Mabi felt her emotions becoming increasingly unstable, as if triggered by something, but she had no enemies in this dark world.

"Bang!" Mabi dodged the incoming gunshot and, using the trajectory of the bullets she had observed earlier, peered in that direction.

It's you! Mabi felt a figure about to pass over her head, and she needed to vent her emotions.

The "Salted Fish Showdown" forces one side into a fight until the other side is unconscious.

"Cloud-Dispelling Palm!" A palm strike releases compressed air that explodes on the surface of the opponent's body, and the enormous recoil force propels the opponent's body away instantly.

"Clang! Clang! Clang!" The flying body caused the swords hanging in front of Mabi to collide and strike.

"What is he doing? Why did he go down there? Didn't I tell you you're only allowed to entice, not to actually do it?" the host on the viewing platform shouted, then turned to fawn over several people sitting on the sofa.

"My lords, this was just a small mistake. As you have seen, our potion can cause people to lose their senses, which will absolutely leave them at the mercy of others!"
