"Chopper said."
Looking around, in that thicket of thorns, there was a person who had once sat there, along with a basket and a water jug.
"what happened?"
"Left over from a picnic."
"Chopper said to Nami. There's no doubt this is a holiday filled with joy for the whole family."
Sanji walked in. There was still his mother's (Wang Zhao Zhao's) bento in the basket. Looking at the leaves on the ground, it seemed like they had just left not long ago.
"Aren't you all ready yet? Anyway, let's leave here first and talk about it after we get ashore."
Usopp's voice rang out.
"Hey, Nano, you'd better go back to Yu."
"No way!" Chen Xiaobei shook his head.
Luffy is eager for the Hell Trial; he can't wait. But Nami doesn't want to go back to the amusement park.
But as they continued onward, a ray of light appeared in the very center of the forest.
"Really? We're almost at the end of the forest!"
Luffy and his crew stopped at the entrance to the forest.
But what lies before us is not an ocean, but a special stage.
Chapter 249: A Strange Stage!
"Could it be?"
Nami had a bad feeling. Just then, the voice rang in his ears again.
"Hahaha, you brave pirates, you've kept us waiting for so long!"
"Ouch! It's a big face covered in graffiti!"
"Luffy said spiritedly. On the stage, Baron Carnival held a microphone, waiting for their arrival."
"Why...why can't I just get some rest?"
"She's not exactly a beautiful woman."
"That's fake too."
"We can't get out."
Nami, Sanji, Chopper, Zoro, and the others remained silent, as they were already prepared to receive them.
"That is……"
Luffy picked up where Robin left off.
"Door of hell!"
"The second match!" Chen Xiaobei smiled faintly.
In response to Luffy's punch, Baron Carnival raised two fingers.
At that moment, music started, and dancers with full beards walked out from both sides of the stage and began their performance.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby announce that this assessment will result in 677 being—"
Luffy was very excited, while the others waited with great interest.
The curtain in the middle of the stage was lifted, and the electronic bulletin board below displayed the upcoming matches.
The revelry baron proclaimed:
"Ring toss!" Tang Wulin shouted.
Following the introduction by the Carnival Baron, a brief introduction also appeared on the electronic bulletin board.
"In this match, each side sent four people to board their respective ships."
Whoever can get all of the opponent's items on them is the winner!
The rules are simple.
Luffy and the others then realized. All they needed to do was trap the four of them in a circle; nothing else was required. This was a hellish test, not a sport. But that was exactly what Luffy wanted.
"Next, I will introduce four players that I am very proud of."
Amid cheers, four seats rose from the stage.
What kind of person is this? Is he a fish? A giant? A monster? Luffy and the others stared intently at the stage.
"The first one is the core skill, Frog Shooting!"
Repairman - Dirk!
The smallest woman, a frog!
And their captain, the core member of the team, Frog Princess!
These are my four most prized people!
Introduced by the Carnival Baron, the bearded dancers began their performance.
The loudest cheers.
"What's going on? How do we fight this?"
Nami frowned slightly as she looked at the four people. These were all elderly people. Just seeing them standing on the stage was enough to make one wonder if they might fall off.
The frog grinned, revealing that it had almost lost all its teeth.
Dirk's glasses still make him look like a carpenter.
The toad was an old woman with heavy makeup.
But Frog Ji is an old immortal who has lived for over two hundred years. All four of them look exactly like their name and look exactly like frogs. On their heads, there is even a leaf.
"These people are all old fogies. What kind of pride do you have?!"
Nami pointed defiantly at the stage.
“In our eyes, you’re just a greenhorn.”
Frog Ji laughed heartily. His words were like an ancient poem.
"What do you mean by this?! How dare you!"
"She's angry! She's so impulsive! So impulsive!"
The frogs were also slowly chanting poetic verses.
"So what if I'm impulsive? That's just my personality! And what's going on here?"
"Ugh, I'm so sleepy, can I take a break?"
Dirk, like an elderly person, swayed and dozed off in his seat.
"What are you thinking about while you're there?"
"You're younger than me, how dare you be so arrogant!"
"Not just a little! It's way too much! You're much older than me!"
Nami angrily pointed at the four old men, but they all pretended to be indifferent, as if they didn't take her seriously at all.
"So, who is your opponent?"
With the help of the four generals, Baron Carnival confidently asked Luffy and his crew a question.
"Let's go! I'm going!"
"No way!" Chen Xiaobei shook his head.
Nami shoved Luffy aside with a slap, wanting to join him.
"Nami, there's no need to argue with these old men!"
"If Ms. Nami wants to participate, then I'll join!"
"Miss Robin, you're here too."
"All you know how to do is this."
"I didn't invite them."
Sanji glanced at Zoro, who had just been rambling on.
Even if I'm invited, I won't come!
"You half-baked idiot, take a good look."
"What do you mean by half-baked!"
"Who else?"
Sanji and Zoro started arguing again. Usopp quickly separated them. Since they were on a ship, they were at sea. Therefore, Luffy, Chopper, Robin, and the others with Devil Fruit abilities shouldn't get involved.
