……

In the boundless desert, Nami and Weiwei rode a camel, which was saved by Lu Fei. They ran in front, and the other men ran behind, all of them sticking out their tongues in the heat.

This camel named Eyelashes by Nami is also an old acquaintance of Chopper. He claims to be a tough camel who loves freedom. It does not carry men, only women!

Following the footprints left by the galloping camels, everyone didn't notice that Ace, who looked pensive, fell behind.

"Water, it's so hot, water" Luffy, who fell at the end of the team, yelled with his big tongue out, already tens of meters behind.

Sauron, Sanji, Usopp, Green, Chopper, ignored Luffy's call, and walked forward silently. Meaningless actions will only lose and speed up the flow of water and waste energy.

"I'm sorry, Zoro, it's too hot."

Chopper lay on the wooden plank dragged by Sauron, his eyes rolled around, and he fainted from the heat.

"Don't worry, don't talk, it will only make you hotter~"

Obviously dragged Chopper forward, regarded Sauron as an alternative practice, and didn't turn his head back.

"Nami-san, where are you, the ruthless Nami-san is also charming."

Sanji leaned on a wooden stick and yelled

Green muffled and continued to move forward. Relatively speaking, compared to Zoro, Sanji, Luffy and others, he has less physical strength. He has already abandoned all behaviors that consume energy, and muffled is advancing in the middle of the team~
"Eh? What's the matter? Luffy." Usopp, who was second to last in the team, heard a strange sound. He stopped and looked back. Luffy dropped the stick in his hand and stood there blankly. shaking.

A cactus that just passed by, only a few pieces of debris remained, how edible is it? The cactus can be eaten, and Usopp has a black line...

Riding a running camel, they had already left their partners thousands of meters away. Only then did Nami and Weiwei remember that the friends behind seemed to have been silent for a while.

Looking back, I didn't find any trace of my companions, but there seemed to be noise coming.

"Everyone run! Tsunami!"

Staring at the scarlet out-of-focus eyes, Luffy raised his arms and shouted wildly!

"What's wrong with this guy?"

Green looked back speechlessly, and saw that Luffy was dancing with excitement.

Luffy's eyes were blurred, with a look of panic, as if he saw something, something frightening!
"What a tsunami, please, this is a desert"

Pulling Luffy did not respond, Usopp said with a black face

"Luffy, what's the matter with you?"

The partners stopped and looked at the obviously abnormal Luffy
"The tsunami is coming"

Luffy couldn't hear his friends' inquiries, and shouted that a tsunami was coming.

"Sure enough, you ate something wrong, and let you eat it indiscriminately."

Usopp said helplessly, only he found out, the hungry Luffy gnawed on the cactus!
"what? something"

Chopper, who sensed something was wrong, forced himself to ask
"Um, a cactus we passed just now was eaten by Luffy"

Usopp truthfully
"cactus……"

Everyone was speechless, it was too powerful, 666, he was not afraid of puncturing his stomach, even thinking about it would make his stomach hurt.

"Ah, trouble, that is not edible! It is a prickly pear cactus, which is used to make hallucinogens." Chopper exclaimed.

"Clam!?"

"It's over, it's going to drown."

Luffy hugged his head and shouted in panic!

"Okay, let the horse come! Let's work together to blow it away!"

Luffy rushed towards everyone, shouting hysterically, waving his fists indiscriminately
"Hey, Luffy"

"Scalable..."

"Oops"

"Snapped"

Luffy fell to the ground before the move was released!
"Strong narcotics!"

Chopper with a tired face was panting, holding a syringe and standing beside Luffy
"Nice job, Chopper"

Everyone stretched out their thumbs and praised angrily,

"Fortunately, there is a doctor like Chopper, otherwise it would take a lot of effort to subdue Luffy."

Greene breathed a sigh of relief.

……

On the other side, somewhere in the sand dunes, Ace looked up and suddenly found that everyone else was gone. . .This is so confusing, you can tell at a glance that you and Luffy are good brothers~ You are indeed a big brother! !

……

"Depressed, Nami and the others can't see any trace at all, the footprints left behind have disappeared, and Luffy's brother has also separated."

Green scratched his head helplessly.
"Damn it, it's all due to the idiot Luffy for making such a fuss"

Usopp complained
"I can only keep going and look for it"

Dragging Luffy's leg backwards and rubbing against the sand, Sauron's practice increased.

The exclusive wooden frame was destroyed by the maddened Luffy, Chopper lost the special treatment, and turned into a reindeer, sticking out his tongue and moving forward
"By the way, when did Ace get separated and no one noticed?"

Sanji was speechless,
"I restrained my sense of knowledge, Chopper was dizzy, and walked behind with Luffy again, I have to ask Luffy about this, if two people walk together, they can get separated~" Fei Green pointed to his nose and blew Bubbles, Luffy sleeping soundly
"Snapped"

Zoro shook his hand directly, the bubble burst in response, and Luffy woke up

"Hey, Ace, when did you see me?"

Usopp asked with a slumped face. He was exhausted, hot and thirsty. It was really torture for Usopp, the only one in the team who was still within the range of normal people.

"Is it lost?"

Luffy suddenly spoke, making everyone pause

"What a brother who loves to cause trouble for others!"

Unconsciously, Luffy pursed his lips and said contemptuously.

"asshole!"

A big hashtag floating on the forehead, blue veins throbbing
"It's not your fault!"

"What right do you have to despise others"

"Who caused trouble for others and made everyone go away"

"Looking for a fight!"

Luffy, who hadn't reacted yet, was trampled into a meatloaf by everyone, and his body was covered with footprints and hoof prints!
"Um?"

Chopper shook his ears, stopped beating Luffy, and looked around

"What's the matter, Chopper?"

Sanji also stopped his movements and asked with a question
"Did you hear anything?"

Chopper has locked the direction of the sound
"Huh?" Everyone listened attentively, "Hmm, there is indeed a sound coming."

"Go and have a look"

Everyone walked quickly up the tall sand dunes.

"It has a flag, it's a pirate ship!!! It's actually sailing in the desert"

Everyone watched in amazement, the slow-moving pirate ship had huge sails, and it was able to sail only with the help of wind
"Where, where"

Luffy climbed up on hands and feet and looked around

"ahhhh"

Everyone was still surprised, Luffy suddenly yelled and ran away
"Hey, hello, Luffy"

"Retractable Rubber Pistol"

Before everyone could stop it, Luffy had already grabbed the mainmast of the desert pirate ship and flew over.

"Really, what is that guy doing"

Zoro, Sanji said speechlessly
"Let's go, let's follow, and ask for directions by the way"

Green suggested

"Bring water!"

"Plop"

Everyone fell headlong on the sand.What a foodie this stupid captain is. . .

……

It turns out that this pirate ship is a ship of the desert pirates, and like the pirates on the sea, it is a group of pirates pursuing freedom.

What's even more gratifying is that both Nami and Weiwei were tied to the boat, so there was no need to ask for directions.

Luffy stuck out his big tongue, begging for water, completely unaware that he had interrupted the main propulsion system and the mainmast sail
There is a natural intimacy between foodie and foodie. By the time Green and the others arrived, Luffy had already become friends with the captain of the Krukru Sand Thieves.

Luffy took the initiative to undertake the responsibility of repairing the mainmast, and was entrusted to go to a nearby oasis to retrieve the wood for repairs!

"Isn't this a surfboard?"

Two skateboards with sails similar to Ace put down the pirate ship, which is several times larger than Ace's and can take two people
Weiwei actually used this kind of strange sand sled, carried Luffy, and followed another sand sled to ride the wind!

"Unexpectedly fast"

"Of course, the fastest way to travel in the desert is to drive a sand sled. Lasha is the most powerful sand sled driver on our ship, but it's beyond our expectations that there are sand sled drivers among your partners."

Krukruza, the captain of the Krukru Sand Bandits, praised
"Well, we didn't know Vivi could actually use a sand sled."

Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp are helping to repair the damaged deck of their own captain.

Chopper, Green took a rare slack and found a shady place to enjoy the coolness and rest.

"The desert is so hot, even the wind is hot." Chopper stuck out his tongue, dripping with sweat

"Ah, it's a good thing that my sweat glands and pores are gone, so I can't sweat, but instead lock the water, but the heat is also retained."

Green said in a muffled voice, like Chopper, he can't stand the hot weather.

"Uncle Haimo, I'm sorry, my medical skills are not enough, I can't cure your body"

"It's okay. I have my own solution. Chopper doesn't need to worry about it. If you can help me control my body from deteriorating, I will be grateful and save me a lot of energy."

Green comforted, with Chopper's help, Green was able to allocate more energy for daily battles
There was another noise in the desert, but it was another group of sand bandits who dominated this ancient desert area. All members were riding camels and holding machetes.

I was very excited to see the ships of the mortal enemy, the Krulu sand bandits, being destroyed and stopped. This is a rare and good opportunity to destroy the enemy!

……

The original vibrant oasis is now reduced to ruins, eroded by the desert, and there are many oases like this.

Lasha is an aborigine of the oasis, and has never left, waiting for the promise of King Cobra, until the supplies are exhausted and he is about to die, and is rescued by the sand bandits.

Weiwei knows how to use a sand sled, and she only learned it when Lasha gave her one when she accompanied her father to patrol the country.

Lasha's desperate complaints made Weiwei feel even more guilty. Back then, there were so many oases and towns that lacked water, and the kingdom was simply overwhelmed and unable to deal with it!

The purpose of this trip is even more determined, and the conspiracy of the Baroque Works must be exposed, so that the kingdom can return to peace and a new life!
……

The giant desert dung beetle kept rolling huge balls of sand and stones down the sand dunes. The sprinting sand thieves hit the fish in the pond, crushed many people, and fled in despair.

The Straw Hats who were preparing for a big battle were all relatively speechless. Is this here to perform a drama?

The huge sand ball was easily solved by Zoro and Sanji, and the sand thieves cheered and surrounded the straw hats.

During the communication with the sand thieves, the straw hats learned a lot of information about the desert, as well as the great changes in the environment in the past three years, how many disasters caused by the cessation of rain, how many people were forced to leave their homes and became thieves!

……

In the boundless desert, Ace rode a chameleon, calling for Luffy everywhere, searching for the straw hat gang. . . .

……

When Luffy and the others came back, the sun had already set on the sand dunes, and the desert fell into a cold night again. The Straw Hats were received by the sand thieves and stayed overnight.

The next day, the mainmast was repaired, and the sand bandits sent the group to the edge of the desert, waving goodbye.

It took only half a day to walk the two-day journey, and it was already very close to Yuba.

The Straw Hats set foot on the journey again and moved forward.

Yuba, the last habitat of the desert, is also the refuge of all refugees, and the location of the refugee rebels.

The last water resources have also been exhausted, and the rebels who can no longer wait are excited.

Weiwei, can you convince the rebel army?

Not only are the Straw Hats not optimistic, Weiwei actually doesn't have enough confidence in her heart.

Along the way, I have seen too many ruins after disasters, and this desert kingdom has been shrouded in despair, grief and indignation!

Trying to resolve it with one person?The answer is already obvious.
