Chapter 498

Sanji said calmly.

Soon, Sanji and the others broke into a children's playground.

The children in this playground were all huge, with the tallest being a full five meters high.

"What big little kids!" Franky exclaimed.

"Who are you guys?" A group of children walked up to them and asked.

At this moment, Usopp received a long-distance sound transmission from Brook.

"What did you say? Nami and the others are missing?"

Usopp's heart sank; he knew things were troublesome.

"Yes, we were drugged by sleeping smoke before, and when I woke up, I was the only one left on the war-chariot! And it's no longer a sea of fire around me, but I've arrived in a world of ice and snow!"

After listening, Usopp frowned tightly: "Then that's really bad!"

Robin analyzed at this time: "It seems Nami and the others were kidnapped by someone; in that case, Brook, we'll go over there immediately! You stay around the Sunny for a while; if there is news about Nami and the others, contact us immediately!"

"Understood, I'll keep an eye out! You be careful!" Brook instructed.

After hanging up the phone, everyone prepared to rush to the destination for rescue.

…

"Hey, you guy, you're really interesting, become our partner!" Luffy said, patting the centaur human in front of him on the shoulder.

"Ah, eh? Aren't you our accomplice?"

This centaur human began to guard against Luffy; something was wrong! This guy looked like an intruder!

"You guy are the intruder they want to arrest! Damn, you actually tricked me for so long!"

After seeing through Luffy's identity, the centaur human waved his spiked club again and smashed it toward Luffy.

Unfortunately, Luffy had already prepared for it and kicked the centaur to the ground.

"I say, what's wrong with you, didn't we just become friends? Don't attack me suddenly."

"Friend my ass! I've never known a guy like you."

The centaur human roared angrily, struggling to climb up and continue the attack.

But Luffy grabbed its tail, swung it hard, and threw it directly into the river.

"Luffy! Don't mess around! Hurry to the other side! You heard the news that Nami and the others were captured, right?" Zoro shouted worriedly.

"Hmm, don't worry, I will definitely bring Nami and the others back safely!" Luffy said resolutely.

"I really don't know who our enemy will be? Could it be the Imperial Guard?"

"Probably not! Since we entered Punk Hazard, all kinds of strange creatures have come out, giant lizards, half-people, centaurs... anyway, it's a bunch of weird things."

"Oh, forget it, don't worry about these messy things. Anyway, let's hurry over and find Nami and the others!"

In the ice mountains, in that giant workshop.

The human-shaped smoke arrived in the prison cell where Nami had just been.

"Master, look, they broke this prison door and escaped from here."

A man in black said respectfully.

The human-shaped smoke looked at the prison door shattered by Franky's Free Qi and was lost in thought.

This technology of converting Qi into explosive energy is not something ordinary people can master; only the current Mohist leader, Vegapunk, can use it.

And now it was being deployed in the hands of a group of ordinary people, which made him have to suspect the relationship between this group of people and the Mohist leader.

After all, his research direction was somewhat in conflict with Vegapunk's.

"Must capture them back! Upgrade our workshop's alert level to the highest!"

The human-shaped smoke ordered.

"As you command, Master! I will send people to track their traces." The man in black took the order and left.

"Hehe, hope to capture them alive! Don't let too many people die." The human-shaped smoke muttered.

"It's not good! It's not good! Master!"

A very panicked man in black ran over, shouting in a panic.

This guy was a guard responsible for watching the outer workshop.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Master! A team of Imperial Guards has arrived outside, they are flying the flag of the Fifth Division! If our experiments are known by the Imperial Guard, it will definitely be a disaster!" The man in black said anxiously.

Hearing this, a hideous smile appeared on the human-shaped smoke's face.

"Finally found their way here, huh, hehe. Since they dare to come, don't even think about leaving here alive!"

"Someone! Release hypnotic poison gas all around our workshop; just inhaling a tiny bit is enough to make people lose their minds and become fools, leaving them at our mercy!"

"Yes, Master!"

Following the human-shaped smoke's instructions, thick poison fog filled the area around the workshop.

【I'm going, who is this guy? Actually daring to attack the Imperial Guard directly? This is too high-class, right?】

【Looks like he's also a master of mechanism arts; he should be an existence of the same level as the Mohist leader, otherwise he wouldn't have such great courage.】

【Wow, so cruel! This guy is terrifying! But I like it!】

On the war-chariot of the Imperial Guard's Fifth Division, Smoker let his subordinates continue to advance into this world of ice and snow.

"General Smoker! Four years ago, the Mohist leader's experiment failed here; this place has retained a lot of toxic gas, I think it's better to be careful, right?"

A soldier said cautiously.

Some hidden matters in the Celestial Dragon Dynasty were not much to the people of the Imperial Guard's Fifth Division.

Their intelligence sources were much more numerous than other armies.

"No matter, these gases have long since dispersed!" Smoker looked at the ice and snow world before him and frowned.

"The reason this place is like this now is because two years ago, Admiral Akainu and Admiral Aokiji fought here for ten days and ten nights!

The traces of the duel between two peerless powerhouses actually haven't dissipated even now."

The adjutant on the side exclaimed.

Smoker didn't speak, just quietly watched this ice field before him.

He knew that buried beneath these traces were many, many innocent corpses.

Moreover, many people had tried to enter here to investigate, but they were all crushed to pieces by a terrifying force.

【What! This is the site of the battle between Admiral Akainu and Admiral Aokiji?】

【What kind of destructive power is this, to actually be able to change the weather to this extent!】

【Good guy, I'm directly a good guy! The three commanders of the Imperial Guard are really strong!】

【It's hard to imagine how Luffy will defeat Akainu.】

In the children's room in the workshop.

Those huge children were initially very afraid when they saw Nami and the four of them suddenly break in.

"That... why do they look so strange?"

"Are they from the Giant race?"

"Probably not, look, there are still many ordinary human children there."

Nami, Sanji, and the four of them looked at the scene before them and guessed.

"Wow! Look! It's a puppet person!"

One of the boys pointed at Franky and shouted excitedly.

Franky's movements suddenly stiffened.

But he recovered immediately.

Sure enough, no boy could refuse a robot as cool as himself.

And those girls pointed at Chopper and said: "Look! It's a raccoon dog doll!"

"I'm not a raccoon dog! I'm a reindeer, hey!"

Soon, Nami and the four of them hit it off with this group of children.

Of course, the reason these children accepted them was also because of the candy Nami took out.

"I say, big sister, did you escape from those frozen people?" A little girl asked.

"Frozen people? What is that?"

Nami always felt that this place was weird; building a prison and a children's playground together, this wasn't something normal people could get along with.

"They are people frozen in ice blocks~"

That male little child explained.
