Was there really someone named Noland in history?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crunch, crunch…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chopper's horns dug noisily into the earth, making Nami snap in irritation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Chopper! What are you digging for? It's so noisy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chopper froze, mouth dropping open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nami! You told me to dig for gold!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami waved the book in her hand as if it didn't matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, then stop digging for now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nami is so willful!\" Chopper huffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard this story when I was very young…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sanji's voice softened as he remembered his mother reading him bedtime tales, a faint smile touching his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's a very old story…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Sanji.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai suddenly interrupted, his eyes glinting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Listening to stories like this is boring. Want me to show you a new move instead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A new move?\" The crew blinked in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What did telling a story have to do with a new technique?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A soft pink bubble appeared in Shirogai's hand, glowing faintly in the shape of a heart. He turned to Sanji with a sly smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is something new I developed with the Whisper-Whisper Fruit… I call it Fairytale Time. It's a spiritual ability that lets people enter the narrator's emotions directly. On a soul level, you can feel the story as if you're living it. Want to try?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sanji raised a brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Communication on a soul level, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others leaned in, intrigued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That sounds fun!\" Usopp grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sanji hesitated, eyeing the drifting heart-shaped bubble. After a moment, he exhaled and nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright. Let's see how effective this really is. What do I have to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just recall the story of Noland the Liar in your mind,\" Shirogai said smoothly. He tapped the bubble lightly with his fingertip, sending it floating toward Sanji.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone get ready. We're about to step into Sanji's memories.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bubble gently enveloped Sanji, wrapping him in a soft glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this really the power of the Whisper-Whisper Fruit?\" Sanji muttered, looking around. He felt no discomfort… only warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, a familiar voice echoed in his ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sanji… today I'm going to tell you a story about the Liar King.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sanji's eyes widened. His body trembled as he whispered, \"Mama…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice, identical to his mother's, spoke tenderly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sanji, this is a story passed down in the North Blue for centuries. It began about 400 years ago…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of a page turning echoed clearly in his ears. It was so vivid that he felt as though he were back in his sickbed, listening to his mother's gentle voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No… she's already gone.\" Sanji's expression twisted in anguish. He tried to shake off the illusion, but the warmth pulled him deeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice paused. The bubble around him darkened from pink to black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sanji, don't resist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai stood outside the bubble, noticing the conflict in Sanji's face. His voice was calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Trust me. This won't turn into a sad memory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sanji looked at him deeply, then lowered his resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Alright. I'll trust you, Shirogai.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bubble brightened again, glowing pink once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In a certain country in the North Blue, there lived a man named Montblanc Noland…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice resumed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He was an explorer, and whenever he returned from his travels, he would tell people exaggerated stories of his adventures…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mama…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sanji closed his eyes, letting himself drift. Slowly, he fell into a dreamlike slumber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gurgle… gurgle…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strange, colorful shapes began to pour out of him, filling the heart-shaped bubble. Cute, cartoonish images appeared—an animated chestnut-haired man bouncing about, a king in a golden crown wielding a shield and saber, mountains of gold singing cheerfully, a massive sea snake glaring down at ships. The visions swirled like a child's fantasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luffy's eyes sparkled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehehe! That looks so fun!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, these things… they're moving on their own!\" Usopp pressed his nose against the bubble. He pointed excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That cartoon king looks like he's trying to escape!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little king inside the bubble suddenly turned, staring straight at Usopp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Usopp could react, the cartoon king stabbed its tiny knife outward—straight through the bubble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"GYAAAH!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usopp howled, clutching his nose as he stumbled back in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This little guy stabbed me for real! It hurts!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow! That's amazing!\" Chopper gasped in awe, shifting into his small form. His eyes shone with wonder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shirogai, what happens next?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai smirked faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just wait for the explosion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Explosion?!\" the crew shouted in unison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bubble continued to swell, filling with more and more cartoon creations until it could no longer contain them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bubble burst apart with a deafening crack. A blast of wind knocked everyone flat, yet instead of falling, their bodies drifted upward, weightless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wooooah! We're flying!\" Luffy laughed, somersaulting through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nami flailed in panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's happening?! My body feels light—too light!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zoro floated calmly, eyeing the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So this is the Whisper-Whisper Fruit's power. Interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Robin glanced downward, her sharp eyes widening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our bodies… they're still lying unconscious on the ground.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"H-Hey! Don't say that!\" Nami panicked harder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did we just have an out-of-body experience?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usopp flailed desperately, swimming through the air toward his unconscious form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way! I'm not staying like this! Get me back in my body!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh no… Am I already dead?!\" Chopper whimpered, floating helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Doctor… I'm coming to join you…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai hovered effortlessly among them, calm as ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Relax. This is only temporary. You're all unconscious, that's all. There's no danger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pink mist formed at the center of the explosion, pulling them inward with irresistible force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uwaaaah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crew screamed as their soul-forms were sucked inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the real world, however, their bodies remained sprawled on the ground, motionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shirogai's eyes snapped open. His expression was colder than ice, a chilling aura spreading beneath him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How bold,\" he muttered, his voice flat and dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You dare use the Whisper-Whisper Fruit for psychological suggestion? To create… me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood, shadows flickering across his face as the frost crept outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you really think it's wise… to tamper with my mind and risk splitting it into pieces?\u003C\u002Fp>",1039,"2026-06-06T06:44:36.997Z",1,"novelbin.me","371d940ad13d070c4d326ce681d79d101c08412fffc5419eb43e966b807d497c","i-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-chapter-190","i-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-chapter-188",652,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-a-plunderer-in-the-world-of-one-piece-cover.jpg"]
