Chapter 210: Ambush in the Snowy Mountain
"How dare you! I won't let you insult my Master!" Screamed Brownbeard.
"Chopper, they are all falling down now, What do we do?, Do we need to go get them some medicine ?" Said Luffy with urgency.
"No…they are not sick. And they can never take those candies again!, It would just make things worse." Said Nami(Chopper)
"Candy…." The blonde giant boy stood up and looked at Luffy with a painful expression.
"Give me candy…"
"I can't!, Chopper said that it was bad for you, listen to him. He is a great doctor!" Luffy said.
"Why…" The kid's face changed to one of pure rage and agony.
"Why won't you give me my candy!"
He punched Luffy with all his strength, sending the Captain crashing down against a rock wall nearby.
"What an incredible force!" Exclaimed Robin.
"Stop it, Sind!" Shouted another one of the kids.
"I have never seen him go this berserk." Said one of the girls.
"Is no wonder he is so strong…giants have massive power, even as children." Explained Usopp.
"Is that so?..." Wondered Sanji(Franky).
"How impressive."
"Sid is not a giant!" Defended one of the girls.
"Yeah, the big ones were not like that when they came to the island."
"That's true, they were all normal size. The Master said that it was because of our disease."
"We have a growing sickness, right? I mean, we are not sick in any other way." One of the giant kids said.
"The biggest ones are the ones who've been here the longest." Someone added.
Nami(Chopper) frowned.
"There is no such thing as a sickness that turns people into giants…this must have been done on purpose."
"You mean they have been used to experiment? how awful" Robin looked horrified.
"And they were turned into addicts so they would not escape…this Master is a piece of work," Buggy said.
Luffy stood back up from the rubble. He seemed to be mostly fine but his head wound has reopened.
"Oi, the other big kids are also getting scary." Sanji(Franky) pointed out.
The giant kids started to go berserk.
"What do we do?, Do we knock them out?" Asked Luffy.
"We can't hurt them!" Cried Vivi(Nami).
"I know, but…" Luffy did not know what else to do.
"Move!" Usopp took something from his bag and loaded it into his slingshot.
"Sleeping star!"
The projectile exploded in a cloud of smoke that sent all the kids to sleep.
"Good one, Usoop!" Cheered Vivi(Nami).
"Uff…" Sanji(Franky) breathed in relief.
"How long is this going to last?"
"On a normal person it should last at least one hour, but on the giant kids it won't be that long I'm afraid." Explain Usopp.
"Let's find something to tie them up then" Suggested Sanji(Franky)
"I feel sorry for these kids. They just want to go home…" Said Robin.
"To use children as guinea pigs…how despicable." Said Vivi(Nami).
Brownbeard gritted his teeth in anger but chose to keep his mouth shut.
"Then, let's do that. Let's send these kids home." Decided Luffy.
"Is not that simple, we don't even know where they were taken from. And there is the matter of this Master, he won't just let them go like that." Said Vivi(Nami).
"We can go find this Master…oh right…Zoro, Sanji, and Vivi went to look for that samurai." Remembered Luffy.
"I need to stay here to look after the kids." Said Nami(Chopper).
"You can't stay alone, if they wake up and break those bounds, you would be in a lot of danger. And my body too..." Said Vivi(Nami).
"Right…I can't do much in this body." Nami(Chooper) looked down.
"I'll stay too, even if the sleeping powder doesn't work again, I have other tricks to hold them." Said Usopp.
"Wait, we also need to find this Trafalgar guy!" Said Sanji(Franky).
"What for?" Asked Luffy.
"To return our bodies to normal, of course." Said Vivi(Nami).
"Isn't it fine like this?" Wondered Luffy.
"Is not fine at all!" Shoutrd Sanji(Franky).
"And my beautiful body is in the hands of those marines!."
"Alright, alright!" Luffy raised his hands defensively.
"We have a lot to do it seems," Robin added.

The road down the mountain.
"I found something!" Tashigi(Vivi) exclaimed.
"Finally…" Muttered Zoro.
"Hey, shut up you mosshead!" Shouted Chopper(Sanji).
"What did you find, my lovely marine?"
Tashigi(Vivi) gave him a dissatisfied look.
"He is that way, close to the- wait…"
"What is it?" Zoro looked at her.
She turned around.
"Two strong individuals coming this way. Be careful!"
As soon as she gave the warning, they heard a loud explosion.
Tashigi(Vivi) pushed Chopper down as a bullet flew over the place where his head was a second ago.
Zoro on the other hand had unsheated one of his katanas and cut a big metal pellet.
"Oh, not bad. As expected of some high bounty pirates."
"Yes brother, these guys are strong."
The two approaching individuals spoke.
"Show yourselves!" Demanded Chooper(Sanji).
The visibility was very low in this area due to the wind that was blowing a lot of snow up in the air.
They could only see two big figures in the distance that soon disappeared.
"Sanji, look for a place to take cover, those two seem to like fighting with long-distance rifles." Said Tashigi(Vivi).
"What?!, I can fight too!." He complained.
"Chopper only has one transformation that would be viable for your fighting style. Can you transform into it?" She asked.
Chopper(Sanji) frowned.
"I haven't had time to practice…"
"Vivi is right, as you are now, you will get in the way. Got take cover, or you will just hurt Chopper's body." Said Zoro.
"What about you? Can you fight with that body?" Chopper(Sanji) asked.
Tashigi(Vivi) gave him a reassuring smile.
"This body is similar to mine, other than the lack of powers. I'll manage."
