Chapter 379 - Saved!
"God, save us."
In a town in the Country of Wano, a mother fell to the ground and could only hold her little daughter in her arms with tears streaming down her face, hoping for a miracle.
Right in front of her was a waterspout that had begun to rage like a demon, leaving the sea only to prevent it from growing any larger, but destroying everything in sight before it completely dissipated!
Sanji and the others, who had just rescued Luffy, were trying their best to escape from this dangerous area and to be honest, they couldn't care less about the lives of others.
But after seeing this scene, Zoro still threw Luffy to Sanji, and then ran over to them, picked up the mother and daughter who were waiting for death on the ground, and started to run away!
He is not a god, he is just a man.
But sometimes man can do things that God can't!
With this delay, their chances of escape became a little smaller, but Zoro didn't regret it, and the others didn't blame him in any way.
Even Sanji protested loudly, saying that he was the one who was supposed to save the mothers and daughters, but he, the green moss head, was the one who took the lead.
It definitely wasn't because the mother and daughter were beautiful, and the little one was delicate and cute.
Sanji dared to swear on the life of Green Moss Head that if what he said was a lie, he would be struck by lightning!
Boom!
Coincidentally, a bolt of lightning struck directly in front of them in the sky, once again blocking their escape time of a few seconds.
Everyone was shocked, especially Sanji's face, which was extremely odd.
The suction force behind them had become stronger and stronger, and their escape was slowed down considerably, not to mention the fact that they were still carrying several gasoline bottles.
If this continues, they may all have to answer for it!
Only Hawkins, while running after Zoro and the others, mouthed the words, "Where the hell is the life force? They should have been able to leave alive with Straw Hat, but was there a problem with the divination? No, it can't be! Life must be on the line for these guys!"
"Hey! What are you whispering about there? Think of a solution if you have the time to do that bullshit!"
"That's right, don't you have any ability to make people run faster or anything?"
"If you have it, use it, it's going to catch up!"
Hearing that Sanji and the others were so desperate that they pinned their hopes on him, Hawkins did laugh a little, and he suddenly regretted leaving with these guys.
"My divination results show that as long as I follow you guys, I have a good chance of turning evil into good, so I don't think you should ask me what else I can do, but what other killer weapons are you hiding?"
Zoro and the others who were running looked at each other, but they couldn't figure out who/had the killer weapon or ability to deal with the crisis.
"I knew this guy was unreliable. If your divination had been accurate, you would have been caught and hanged by Kaido right?"
It seems that Sanji words poked him in the face, and Hawkins immediately stopped talking and soon he turned pale, but if it wasn't for the fact that he would be involved in the infighting now, he would have been unable to resist!
As the demons and gods danced about, the water tornado was still venting their fury, and a huge shadow had fallen over everyone without anyone noticing, and many people had been sucked in to add a strange shade of red!
At that moment, a sound like thunder exploded in the ears of Zoro and the others!
"Get down!"
Where did they hear this voice? Something familiar...
They suddenly looked up and saw a figure hovering directly above their heads, wearing a noble and gorgeous gold gauntlet on his right hand, shining with different colours of haze, and at this moment This person is making a fist with his right hand and closing it in front of his left chest, in a strange punching posture.
"GET DOWN!"
Zoro, Sanji and the others immediately recognized the identity of the man in the sky, the great man who was one of the Four Emperors along with Kaido who defeated Luffy with a single move, and the 'old acquaintance' that their captain had been yelling about to defeat him and make him part of his crew!
They've only met him once and don't know much about him, but the only thing that won't make them doubt him is his strength!
They don't want to die by mistake!
So Zoro took the lead and slammed forward and clung to the ground tightly, his arms wrapped around the fleeing mother and daughter, all of whom were firmly under his protection, and everyone else followed suit, including Hawkins!
Then everything that happened in the next moment proved once and for all how well his divination had worked.
Bang!
Ka-ching!
A second ago, the water dragon Tornadoes were still raging around, then as if the pause button had been pressed, they strangely paused for a moment, and then exploded directly into a sky of water falling with a bang.
The unabated aftermath of the explosion directly flattened the devastation in front of it.
Everything that should have been there, the wrecked town, the buildings, everything that was swept up, everything was shaken to pieces!
Then the wind, ten times stronger than just a hundred times, whistled past, blowing away all.
The two Swords were stuck in the ground for support before they were blown away, and the mother and daughter who were rescued also burst with a strong desire to survive, pulling his arms with all their strength under the protection of Zoro.
The others, in order not to be affected, also began to show their magic, and the ground was almost stripped away by them.
Then swoosh, only the hoofed Chopped was tragically blown up into the sky!
"Owwwwwwwwwwww... Aaaaaaaaaaaaa... Help...!"
"Chopper!"
Hawkins, who could have just stood by and watched, suddenly used his straw puppet and then caught Chopper, who was tumbling through the air, in the nick of time with his long, swift straw arm.
"Sa...safe!"
Chopper let out a shocked breath, the cold sweat on his face sucked out as much as it would take to prove that he really thought it was over!
The others did not expect that Hawkins, who had tried so hard to stop them from saving Luffy, would suddenly offer help.
Although they didn't know what this guy was planning, they accepted the favour, so much so that Zoro and the others were a little less hostile to him.
Will, who had wanted to save Chopper, frowned slightly after seeing this scene.
He didn't know how this guy Hawkins got mixed up with Luffy's group, he had always had some idea about this straw devil fruit, and the other party was still Kaido's subordinates, so there was nothing wrong with killing him directly.
But this guy just saved Chopper, not to mention what their relationship will be, with his knowledge of the group, they will certainly not sit idly doing nothing while Chopper is being blown away.
So Will put it aside first…
