Everyone climbed out of the sand and breathed fresh air.
Then we continued on our way, walking on the sand dunes.
Although the water source was sufficient, food began to run short. With Luffy and Ace, two foodies, the food was not enough after only one day.
Sanji had no choice but to start controlling the frequency and time of eating, mainly to limit Luffy.
The most exaggerated thing is that we are now only one-tenth of the distance from the city of Juba.
"Everyone guess the guessing game. The one who wins the guessing game will take everyone's luggage!" Luffy said loudly.
The guessing game started, rock paper scissors, and Luffy won.
So everyone put their luggage on the wooden board and let Luffy pull it.
Luffy took heavy steps: "It's so heavy, and it's so hot. I obviously won the guessing game, why?"
"These are the rules you set, so hurry up and follow them properly." Li Xiao reminded from the side.
Sanji followed Princess Vivi's advice and rested at the next rocky place and ate.
Usopp was the first to discover rocks.
Hearing this, Luffy ran away with his luggage, and everyone walked towards the rock at normal speed.
Where there are rocks there are shades, suitable for a short rest.
After taking just a few steps, Luffy ran back again.
"No, there are a lot of injured birds that can't be moved. Chopper, go save the birds!" Luffy shouted.
Hearing this, Li Xiao knew it was over and his luggage was gone.
Princess Weiwei realized the problem: "Birds? Wait a minute, Luffy, are those birds?"
When everyone arrived at the rock pile, they didn't see a single bird and all their luggage was gone.
Princess Weiwei apologized deeply: "I'm sorry, I should have said it earlier. The big deceiver deceives travelers and is a desert thief who steals luggage."
"If a bird pretends to be injured, isn't that fraud?" Usopp exclaimed.
"Have I been cheated?" Luffy asked.
Sanji angrily grabbed Luffy's collar: "Luffy, couldn't it be fine if you just said I was cheated? That's three days' worth of travel supplies, and it was stolen by a bird. How can I wear it without food?"
Cross this desert!"
"But I can't help it, because I was cheated." Luffy said calmly.
"Are your brains worse than those of a bird?" Sanji asked.
"What did you say?"
Luffy and Sanji started to argue again, and then started fighting each other.
At this moment, everyone heard the lewd laughter.
Taking a closer look, a group of big deceitful birds were standing not far away. Not only were they eating everyone's lunch, they were also making mocking sounds, with extremely unbeatable expressions on their faces.
"Bring our luggage back quickly!" Luffy quickly ran towards the big deceiver.
The big deceiver made a lewd laugh, then fluttered its wings and flew towards the sky.
"Stop, don't try to escape!" Luffy panted tiredly.
The big deceitful bird is in the sky, and Luffy will definitely not be able to catch it.
Li Xiao directly threw the demon-binding rope, and the demon-binding rope flew rapidly towards the big deceiving bird in the sky.
Seeing the rope flying towards him, the big deceiver's expression changed to one of horror, and then he was all tied up with the demon rope and fell to the ground.
"Go ahead and beat up these big liars!" Usopp threw away his crutches and ran towards the big liars.
Sanji rolled up his sleeves: "See if I don't steam, grill, and braise you."
"Hahahaha, meat, bird meat, hehehehe!" Luffy came to the big deceiver bird, his mouth watering.
The big liar who has been deceiving others has finally been caught, and the legal net is wide and open.
As expected, the big cheating birds were cooked into a barbecue by Sanji. There were seven big cheating birds in total, which could be eaten for several days.
"It's delicious, it's delicious!" Luffy chewed the food.
Sanji also took a bite of the bird leg: "It's really refreshing. Just now I was laughing obscenely, now it's my meal."
After eating and drinking, everyone continued to set off.
During the trip, the group encountered a giant piranha that emerged from the desert, and rescued a camel that was almost eaten by the piranha.
This is a lustful camel that doesn't want to carry men, but only wants to carry Nami and Princess Vivi.
Nami named the camel Eyelash.
After walking for several hours, everyone heard a rustling sound.
I thought another desert storm was coming, but I didn't expect to see a huge pirate ship in the desert.
I don’t know what kind of power this ship relies on to be able to glide on the desert.
I don’t know what kind of charm it was, but Luffy actually got along with the leader of the Desert Pirates and became good friends.
On this strange pirate ship, Li Xiao took a fancy to an item, a sand crow.
A sand sled, similar to a sled, can travel quickly in the desert like a sailboat.
Li Xiao exchanged ten buckets of water for three sand sleds, each of which could accommodate three people, which was just right.
Everyone stepped on sand sleds and moved quickly towards Elmar.
"Weiwei, can you tell us about the rebels?" Nami asked.
"That's right, I'd better tell you in advance."
Princess Weiwei introduced the rebel army.
Kosha, the leader of the rebel army, met Weiwei 11 years ago. One was the leader and the other was the deputy leader of the Shasha Regiment. They were childhood sweethearts.
A Shasha group is made up of a group of children, who usually play and make noise.
Kosha also fought against vicious enemies in order to protect Princess Vivi.
Afterwards, Kosha went to the uninhabited oasis of Juba and opened up a new city there, which is now the main stronghold of the rebels.
The current situation was all caused by Crocodile.
After gliding for several hours on a sand sled, they saw the rock pile again, and everyone planned to take a rest here.
Take out the meat of the giant bird from before and heat it up on the hot rocks. The delicious aroma will hit your face.
Li Xiao was about to pick up the piece of meat in front of him, but the piece of meat flew up on its own.
There was a hook hanging from the end of the meat, and it was fished away by the guy hiding behind the rocks.
Li Xiao chased the meat and found two children in a rocky corner.
One of the children was eating the meat he had just stolen.
"Where did you come from?" Li Xiao asked standing on the rock.
The two children were startled and hugged each other.
"We're not giving it back to you."
As he spoke, one of the older children took out a pistol and pointed it at Li Xiao.
"If you dare to move, you will die!" the boy said.
Li Xiao smiled slightly: "Like Ace, I like to play with fire."
After that, the boy pulled the trigger, and Li Xiao caught the bullet with his armed and domineering fingers.
"Enough is enough, kids."
Li Xiao came to the boy, snatched his pistol and threw it into the storage ring.
"He actually caught the bullet with his hand!" the boy exclaimed.
"I've never seen such a powerful person!" the boy's younger brother said in fear.
Li Xiao knew that these two little boys were the children of the bounty hunter Scorpion.
In order to defeat Ace, bounty hunter Scorpion deliberately spread the news that he had defeated Blackbeard, so Ace came to this place to find Blackbeard's whereabouts.
Of course, it is impossible to defeat Blackbeard with his ability.
The reason for defeating Ace, according to the bounty hunter Scorpion, is simply to show children that no matter how small a person is, they can challenge the world's number one hero as long as they are determined.
