Chapter 308

~7 min read 1,250 words

Having lived on the Elephant Lord's back for so many years, do they still not understand how terrifying it is?

But

Just being given away as a gift to BIG? OM like this?

Pedro, who had once withdrawn from the BIG? OM Pirates, knew all too well of BIG? OM's brutal and heartless nature, and looked tensely at Duke Inuarashi.

"Duke Inuarashi! You can't agree to this! BIG? OM, he......"

"Boom!"

It was the giant Pekoms throwing a punch at Pedro; though the latter dodged it, his words were cut off as well.

"Traitor, you're in no position to speak ill of Mama!" the giant Pekoms warned.

"You're the traitor! The traitor who betrayed the tribe!" Pedro gritted his teeth and retorted.

This made the giant Pekoms' gaze darken, staring dangerously at Pedro.

And during the two of them's farce,

Sima Di also took the opportunity to use a telepathic link to communicate with Duke Inuarashi.

【"I am currently using a special ability to communicate with you."】

【"I have no interest in the Mink Tribe's loyalty. This time our Straw Hat Pirates are preparing to annihilate the BIG? OM Pirates and vacate the position of the Four Emperors."】

【"The Mink Tribe and the Elephant Lord only need to be responsible for clearing out the small fries. Once it's done, I can have the Elephant Lord migrate to a safe location so the Mink Tribe won't be disturbed again."】

【"And...... you're a retainer of the Kozuki Clan of Wano Country, aren't you? We will also go after Kaido afterwards, and can help you take back Wano Country."】

【"Of course you can also refuse, or leak my plan, but believe me, the Mink Tribe will pay a bloody price for your impulsiveness."】

It's just coercion and bribery!

What could Duke Inuarashi do?

Even if he exposed Baron Tamago and the others now, whether they believed it was one matter; even if they did believe it, tying them all together, they would barely be able to injure even the Elephant Lord.

Let alone there was still Sima Di, who could match an Admiral arm-wrestling!

"Sigh—"

Duke Inuarashi heaved a heavy sigh and helplessly closed his eyes.

"Let me discuss it with Nekomamushi, and I'll give you an answer afterwards." Duke Inuarashi looked into his eyes and said: "I hope you can keep your promise."

What Duke Inuarashi was referring to was naturally the promise Sima Di had made in the telepathic link.

But to Baron Tamago and the others' ears,

It was the "right to live on the Elephant Lord's back for generations" that Sima Di had agreed to earlier.

"Of course, I have always been a man of my word." Sima Di readily agreed.

"That's good then......"

"You can't, Duke Inuarashi!" Pedro said anxiously.

The giant Pekoms glared!

But Duke Inuarashi, before him, raised his hand and cut Pedro off.

"My mind is made up. Wait until I've discussed it with Nekomamushi before we speak further."

Seeing Duke Inuarashi's resolute attitude, Pedro could only hatefully clench his teeth and stare viciously at Sima Di.

It felt like being targeted by an animal.

But......

Pedro was too weak.

Although he could handle Baron Tamago, in front of Sima Di, it was all equally not worth mentioning.

"Then we'll be waiting for your good news." Sima Di smiled, turned around, and walked toward the Thousand Sunny.

The members of the Straw Hat Pirates also followed.

Baron Tamago hesitated for a moment, then rashly followed.

Although the Straw Hat Pirates' attitude so far had been fairly decent, and the idea of allying with BIG? OM was very clear.

But......

Baron Tamago instinctively felt something was off....

This matter......

Carried a strange flavor.

Coupled with the "Devil's Bane" title of "Cunning Prodigy"......

"No matter what you're planning, once we reach the Whole Cake Island, everything will be up to Mama." Baron Tamago said confidently.

No one can defeat BIG? OM!

Thousand Sunny, in the kitchen.

Robin and the women were busy in the kitchen,

Sima Di, meanwhile, laid the Mink Tribe's potions on the table and recounted the gains from the first half earlier — the second half was "paid content," not to be shared with outsiders.

"I'm just curious." Crocus rubbed his head and said: "We and Luo Jie also went to see that original red Road Poneglyph, so how come we didn't discover this thing?"

They also took the fourth route!

On what basis could Sima Di discover the "Giant Kingdom Ruins" on Little Garden and Skypiea, and even dig up Joy Boy's grave at Fish-Man Island?

How come their Roger Pirates didn't discover a single one?

Just......

It felt like a wasted trip!

No wonder when Luo Jie reached Laugh Tale, he ultimately returned empty-handed — missing so many key clues, it would be a miracle if he could clear it!

Regarding this......

Sima Di could only smile without saying a word.

Although he did indeed fabricate one or two "remnants of the Giant Kingdom," Little Garden, Joy Boy's cenotaph, and this time the Mink Tribe's potion were all genuine.

"Let's not discuss the matters of our predecessors." Sima Di said with a smile: "Now let's talk about this — does anyone want to drink this Mink Tribe potion? You can gain a power boost, a self-triggered transformation ability!"

? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense? incense?

Just 400 more flowers for an extra chapter!

37. Exploiting the bug and chugging potions! Little Furball Chopper!

"Does anyone want to drink this Mink Tribe potion? You can gain a power boost, a self-triggered transformation ability!"

Although the enhancement Sima Di described was quite tempting, no one present spoke up.

After all...

Who in their right mind would want to turn into a "beast-man"?

But Chopper was quite tempted!

However......

"My true form is a reindeer, you know — can I drink this Mink Tribe potion?" Chopper asked worriedly.

After all, it was developed by the Giant Kingdom for ordinary humans.

Whether cross-species use would even be effective aside, whether it would be dangerous was the top priority.

"That's simple." Sima Di snapped his fingers: "Usopp, go catch a fish from the aquarium. As long as the fish has no problem, then Chopper drinking it will have no problem either."

The logic checks out!

Usopp hurriedly grabbed his net and went off to catch fish.

At this moment,

Crocus suddenly said: "Kid Di, you said...... the Giant Tribe potion can increase strength, and the Little People Tribe potion can increase speed, and both can extend lifespan. So if you drink one first, then the other, could you get a triple boost in strength, speed, and lifespan?"

Ah, this......

Exploiting a bug?

In the past, Sima Di might have considered it seriously, but now......

"Most likely it won't work." Sima Di shook his head: "Whatever you can think of, don't you think the Giant Kingdom would have thought of it too? But they still went on developing lifespan potions, and even produced the Mink Tribe as a byproduct — that alone shows this path is a dead end."

"That's right." Robin from the kitchen corroborated: "It's explained on the stone tablet — if you take two kinds of potions in succession, they will neutralize each other and cancel out all the buffs."

Crocus sighed regretfully.

If they could exploit this bug, the Straw Hat Pirates would take off on the spot!

Usopp also returned from his fishing trip — he'd even caught an octopus.

Watching Crocus and Chopper feed the potion to the octopus, Sima Di suddenly thought of something!
