"Where is this?" Ask Tanaka who is lost.

Even so he continued walking while recalling the path that led to where Nami was.

"Fix, I've caught Zoro blind!" Tanaka Mumbles. "No, no, I'm not like that moss hair, it's because this castle alone is too big and there's a lot of room."

He continued walking and continued walking until he finally came back again in front of the castle gate.

"Oh, no! I'm totally blinded from Zoro!" Shouted Tanaka who did not accept that.

He tried to do it once more until he finally stopped and looked out of the window, Wapol with both of his subordinates appeared in front of the castle.

"They've come!" Said Tanaka who walked back towards the castle gate.

But he again lost his way and instead was in the room where Nami was treated which had previously been his goal.

"Damn it, when it's not searched, it meets." Think Tanaka. "Why is this castle made big anyway? Make it hard for people."

Nami looks at Tanaka's face which looks upset by something. "Tanaka, what's wrong? Why do you feel upset about something?"

"Oh, no, it's just that this castle is too big, making it hard for people to find this room." Tanaka.

Nami just nodded her head and wanted to go back to sleep to rest but Luffy suddenly appeared with a shivering body.

"Cold down! It's cold." Luffy said while looking for special winter clothes in the room.

"What are you looking for?" Ask Nami.

"Jacket, I need a jacket to keep my body warm." Luffy. "If it's like this I can't beat that big mouth out."

"Oh, just put on my jacket." Nami.

"But your jacket is ugly." Reject Luffy.

"Better there than nothing." Nami. "It's still better than your jacket anyway."

Luffy nodded his head and immediately put on Nami's jacket.

"okay! Now I can beat that big mouth without fearing the cold." Said Luffy who immediately walked out of the room towards the castle gate.

Tanaka also runs behind Luffy, but Nami asks him so he stops.

"What's wrong? Seems like something happened?" Ask Nami.

"Small little fights." Answer Tanaka. "You rest to heal quickly."

"That's it, all right." Nami said that she immediately went to sleep.

Tanaka immediately chased after Luffy so that he would not get lost again like before but he immediately abandoned his intention for it.

"I'd better be with Nami." Tanaka Mumbles. "Nami wouldn't have protected him if the hippo had gone into the castle."

Tanaka immediately returned to the room where Nami was being treated, sitting on one of the chairs with her rest.

"Master! Why didn't Master come to the Master's captain's aid?" Ask Honjo.

"Yes, go, I want to fight too." Pinta Sengo's. "You always use Honjo in every fight, while I'm in the sheath continuously."

"That's because you didn't want me to use it before, I've only recently been allowed by you." Denying Tanaka. "In addition to that you can take the life of a living being, I don't want to be like that if I don't really have to."

Tanaka does not want to kill or eliminate the life of living things at will except for food or something that makes him do it.

"I don't want to be a killer." Tanaka Assert. "Many people say once someone kills a living thing for no apparent reason it becomes addictive to keep killing until it eventually becomes a ruthless cold-blooded killer."

Sengo just fell silent, not making any more noise.

"Why don't I help my captain, Honjo?" Tanaka. "That's because I believe that my captain can defeat his opponent without the need for me to interfere, even though he's stupid and acting at will, Luffy is strong and reliable."

Moments later, a loud explosion sounded.

"What's that sound?" Nami asked who woke up in surprise.

"Just the sound of the firecrackers, don't worry, you need to rest now." Said Tanaka who walked up to the mattress and pushed Nami's body again to lie back down.

"Hackings? What firecrackers? "What are you saying, Tanaka?" Ask Nami. "That was the sound of a cannon blast, right? What the hell is going on out there?"

The sound of a loud enough explosion was heard again and it made Nami want to get off the bed immediately to see the situation that was happening outside the castle.

"Already, already, you get enough sleep and rest, don't force yourself, Nami." Tanaka said and then let's hear someone's voice from outside the room.

'Could it be Wapol?' Think Tanaka.

"Nami, whatever happens, don't ever get out of this room. Youunderstand?" Tanaka said that made Nami nod her head.

As Tanaka exited the room, he saw Wapol who was also looking at him and vice versa.

"hahaha~ You must be one of Mugiwara's friends, right?" Ask Wapol.

"Then?" Answer Tanaka briefly and keep a flat face.

Wapol then climbed the pole and jumped towards Tanaka who was not just silent. He held the hippo up in the air and then pushed it against the wall.

The wall was destroyed so that Wapol entered into a room behind the wall.

While Wapol complained of pain, Tanaka walked in a relaxed pace toward the hollow wall.

As it approached, a medium-sized cannonball came out of the hollow wall that was automatic, Tanaka took Sengo out of the scabbard and cut the medium cannonball vertically.

The medium cannonball split open and hit the wall behind Tanaka which was none other than the room where Nami was.

"Damn it, I should have held it with the force of its force, not split it." Said Tanaka who immediately ran towards the room where Nami was.

While Sengo was very happy because he could finally feel the fight again after all this time.

The wapol coming out of the hollow wall took advantage of the opportunity to attack Tanaka from behind but Luffy quickly kicked Wapol with his legs that extended until Wapol hit the other wall which also became hollow.

"Mommy are you okay?" Ask Tanaka when he enters the room.

"I'm fine, what exactly is going on right now?" Ask Nami.

Tanaka breathed a sigh of relief as Nami was in fine state. "There's a hippo in the castle, Luffy's driving it away right now." Answer Tanaka.

"Nil horse?" Nami asked confused.

Tanaka came back out of the room and saw Luffy and Wapol fighting each other, although it was Wapol who became the months of Luffy's punches and kicks.

Until Wapol was thrown into the wall again, but this time on the wall that hit with his back it was not destroyed and made a hole, but only made a crack.

Tanaka looked at Nami's clothes being crushed in some parts until part of one of her arms was gone.

"Luffy, you broke Nami's jacket, she'd be so upset to see her jacket like that." Tanaka.

"Ah, how else, it's because he keeps shooting at me." Said Luffy while pointing at Wapol who was still sitting.

"Enough to get there!" Said Wapol who had risen to his feet again.

"Geeh, her body is strong as well, huh?" Luffy asked in surprise.

"Look!" Said Wapol who pointed to a room behind him. "What's clear is that there's an armory! And the only one holding the key is me!"

"Of course there's an assortment of weapons there. When I eat everything my body will activate the Baku Shock and you will witness a terrifying human weapon!" Wapol said with a loud laugh.

Tanaka closed his ears because he did not want to hear the sound of laughter that could make the ears bleed.

Wapol took out the key to the weapon room. "Alright, prepare yourselves! I'll open the door! Eh? What's going on?"

Wapol was surprised that the key suddenly slipped out of his hand and floated to where Tanaka was.

"Damn it, what are you doing?" Ask Wapol. "No, not yet!"

"Ah, he's running away! Wait!" Said Luffy who also ran after Wapol.

As the two of them left, Tanaka walked towards the room where Nami was.

"Is it done?" Ask Nami.

Tanaka shook his head. "Not yet, the hippo turned out to have quite a strong body, the captain was taking care of it." Answer Tanaka.

Nami nodded her head and at that moment she was fixed on the key that Tanaka was holding.

"Tanaka, the key? What key are you holding?" Tanya Nami who looks excited.

Tanaka looked at the key he was holding and at that moment he came up with an idea to prank the mad woman for money and treasure.

"Oh, this, if not misheard the key where the precious treasure of this castle is stored." Tanaka.

"Precious treasure!" Said Nami whose eyes had already turned into berry currency.

"Tanaka, give me the key, we'll split the two treasures, you're 5% I'm 95%." Nami.

Tanaka who heard it felt disbelief at the unreasonable division ratio.

"Here, take it, the treasure for all of you, I'm not too interested in the treasure." Tanaka throws the key at Nami.

"Deal, you've said it." Nami said with pleasure. "I won't give you anything, even if you change your mind."

Tanaka just nodded his head and then told her the location which was none other than the armory room.

Without a second thought, Nami immediately went towards the location while Tanaka followed behind while holding a laugh.

Arriving in front of the armory room, Nami opens the locked door with a key given by Tanaka.

"arta! Treasure, precious treasure! Everything will be mine! Hahaha~" Nami said with a happy laugh.

But the joyful laughter turned into a bewildered laughter as Nami did not see any precious treasures, only weapons everywhere in the room.

"Hahahaha~" Tanaka's laughter is loose and can no longer be held back.

"You! You, tricked me!" Shouted the angry Nami.

"Well, what's a nipu? I'm not saying that this room is a treasure room, but he says it's a treasure room." Tanaka Ngeles. "But it turned out to be wrong, this room is just an armory."

Moments later, Sanji's voice sounded and they both saw Sanji moving like a lizard and it was a bit terrifying.

"Nami!! Good, you're okay!" Sanji said as he crawled closer to Nami.

The woman then lowered her body

"What happened to you, Sanji?" Nami asked with a worried tone. "Why are you crawling like that?"

"Dear mom, you're so worried about me, aren't you?" Sanji asked with lope-lope eyes. "If I get a hug, I'll feel better."

Sanji who played nyosor. But Nami quickly stops Sanji by pressing his head against the snow-filled castle floor.

Tanaka laughs again because of the comedy that is being done by Nami and Sanji.

A few moments later there was a gunshot that was soon followed by a shout of Wapol.

'It's finished, huh?' Thought Tanaka yan walked out of the castle after being told his direction by Sanji in a face down position on the snow.

While outside the castle that made Tanaka feel elated in his heart because he was not lost like Zoro anymore, Tanaka looked at Zoro and Usopp who were standing behind the moss hair with trembling.

"Yo, Zoro, Usopp." Call Tanaka.

Not only were there the two of them, but there was also Dalton along with a few citizens carrying firearms.

Not even Zoro said, there was the sound of Luffy's scream, which made everyone look up.

"Huh? Luffy?" Zoro.

"Ah, Zoro, Usopp!" Said Luffy in free fall.

The rubber man crashed into Zoro and Usopp, then he came out of the snow and laughed.

"What are you doing?!" Zoro said.

"I guess who, you guys, huh?" Luffy said and laughed again. "The clothes that Zoro wears are different, so I thought you were their friend. You guys go upstairs too, yeah. Usopp, don't you want to go up?"

"Don't be stupid! I am a man who will conquer whatever lies ahead. But this mountain really is a big adventure!" Usopp's clear remarks were a lie.

"We boarded the cable car, Luffy. Is Nami okay?" Ask Vivi.

"Yes, Nami is fine." Answer Luffy.

"Ah, good." Said Vivi who was relieved.

"Then, what are you doing up there?" Ask Zoro.

"I was beating up the king of this country!" Luffy replied casually.

"So someone who crashed earlier Wapol? You beat him?" Dalton did not believe it.

"Yes, that's really true." Luffy replied proudly.

"Then, two of his men?" Dalton.

"The deer beat him." Said Luffy who pointed to the place where Chopper was hiding behind a tree, but Chopper's position was wrong.

"They both defeated the deer?!" Ask the unbelieving Dalton.

Dalton suddenly prostrated himself in front of Chopper who was still in the wrong position.

"Thank you, Drum country will definitely be reborn." Dalton said as he shed his tears.

"Oh yes, Usopp! Horrified! I made our new friend!" Luffy said that made Usopp stop bragging and look at Luffy.

"What?" Ask Usopp.

"Will the deer be our new friend, captain?" Ask Tanaka.

Luffy nodded his head and at that moment there was a commotion as the residents looked at Chopper.

"Ma-What's that strange creature?"

"The ru-rusa? No!"

"That's mo-mo-monster."

"Hey, stop!" Dalton.

"Ah, that's a monster!" Usopp said that Chopper ran into the forest.

Luffy hit Usopp on the head.

"Don't call him a monster! The new friend I found was him, you know!" Luffy said fiercely.

"What's? So that?!" Usopp.

"She was shocked and ran away, too!" Luffy said, then he ran after Chopper. "Wait, monster!"

"Hey!" Say them all because Luffy forbids calling Chopper with monster calls but his own people instead call him that.

Tanaka just shook his head in Luffy's reckless manner.
