"Moo——"
Moo Moo stepped on the octopus and let out a cry of victory.
"Now it's your turn." Luffy looked at the talking bat.
"I'm just a talking bat. I don't know what you mean..."
The bat flapped its wings and flew into the sky again, trying to escape.
A red light flashed in Luffy's eyes. The bat had just flown into the air and then fell down. His body felt extremely heavy and he couldn't flap its wings at all.
"What did you do to me?" It looked at Luffy in disbelief.
"You said you are the guide here, how about you introduce the situation here?"
Luffy wanted to go over and catch the bat, but felt a little dirty, so he had to kick it with his foot.
"Situation? It's nothing. You are also here to find the secret treasure, right? So hurry up and set off now!"
Bat said to Luffy while sitting on the ground.
"Secret treasure?" Nami and Uta became curious.
"Why, didn't you come here because of the secret treasure?" Bat was also a little confused and looked at the group of people strangely.
"We came in after someone asked for help," Dasqi said.
"We are looking for companions to deal with a pirate named Zuku. We are the navy, so of course we have to help deal with the pirates."
"Really? That's it, you are the navy..." Bat felt a little unlucky and put on a smile again.
"Then you still don't know, there are huge secrets hidden in this secret realm..."
"Listen to me, there is a secret treasure that can realize your dreams sleeping in the secret realm of the sea navel. As long as you find the big secret treasure, any wish can come true. The pirate named Zuku is inside the sacred mountain."
"A secret treasure that can make any wish come true?" Uta was a little curious, "It's a lie. If it's so powerful, why haven't you heard of it in Haihai?"
"That's because the secret treasure is guarded by guardians. The one you defeated is one of them. There are two more that need to be defeated." Bat said with a smile.
"With your strength, it should be easy to seize the secret treasure. Without further ado, let's take action immediately!"
"For a guardian with such strength, the secret treasure isn't that magical, right?" Nami questioned.
"Just go and take a look."
"Let's go find the town together." Luffy kicked the bat and kicked it away.
The bat was in pain and wanted to fly away, but was pushed to the ground by invisible heavy pressure. After a few tossings, it honestly led the way by walking.
"Luffy, it is a guide after all, you are too mean to it!" Uta knocked Luffy on the head.
"I don't like bats. This thing is too ugly. Just like those bugs, it's best not to appear in front of you."
And... Luffy thought about this talking bat and wanted to use sea stone handcuffs on it to see if it was an esper.
But all the handcuffs have been used up, so I have to apply for new sea floor stone handcuffs.
If it's not an esper, it's a monster from the original story.
Mo Mo followed behind with the machine ship in both hands, and Bat paid attention to this huge sea beast with some fright.
It led the way, and soon took Luffy and others up the mountain.
Because the mountain road was narrow, Moo Mo had to stop and guard the boat at the foot of the mountain.
The bat looked happy.
Everything went as planned, the terrifying giant sea beast was eliminated first.
Luffy and others did not doubt whether the bat was wrong in leading the way. After all, people in many places like to live in mountains or weirder places.
Like the residents of Clockwork Island, they live hundreds of meters in the air. Who would have imagined this?
The mountain road has layers of torii-like buildings, which look very ancient.
Soon, Luffy and others saw a man-made cave-like building with many door openings.
"Here is..." Nami stepped forward to take a look.
"This is the cave where the secret treasure sleeps, a maze. As long as you reach the end, you can see the secret treasure that can fulfill any wish!" The bat flapped its wings and flew up again.
"Want to look for treasure?" Uta was very interested.
"You guy, I said I was looking for a small town at the beginning, and you brought me here." Luffy glanced at the bat.
"As a guide, I will only take people to the place where the secret treasure is. As for the town, you can see it by going down the mountain along the road."
Bat looked at Luffy fearfully.
It was suppressed to the ground several times by the invisible and strange force, and it was completely unclear what it was.
Uta stepped into the corridor inside the cave and saw a diagram of the maze carved on the floor.
"It has an adventurous feel, and the maze is carved on the walkway."
"This is more like some kind of trial, right?" Guina lowered her head and said.
"It's correct to say it's a trial. You have to defeat the three guardians to get the treasure, hahahaha~" The bat laughed as it flew.
The ground trembled, which was caused by something huge moving.
A giant sea urchin appeared at the end of the walkway, with countless spikes on its surface and a pair of scarlet eyes.
It uses those spikes to move, stick into the ground, and then pull up, creating an illusion similar to rolling.
There are many skulls at the end of the spikes, and the human skull is easily pierced.
"This thing is quite scary." Luffy looked up at the sea urchin.
Kuina put her hand on Wado Yimon and looked directly at the moving sea urchin.
Luffy knocked on the wall of the maze. It felt that it was not very thick, so he kicked it over.
Click——
The wall was covered with cobwebs and was directly shaken into small pieces by the powerful ton of force.
"It seems that I am stronger. I chose not to abide by the rules of the game and just tore it apart."
Kuina also put Wado Yimonji into the scabbard. The sea urchin monster was completely unable to block the edge of the famous sword and was cut into pieces.
"Is he dead now?" Bat glanced at the sea urchin monster and swallowed.
"If wishes can really come true, what should we wish for?" Uta asked Xiang Nami.
"If I say... I want 100 billion beli, this should be achievable, right?" Nami said.
"My words... I want everyone in the world to gain their own happiness." Uta said.
"I hope there is no shortage of water in Alabasta." Vivi followed Luffy.
"Hey, wait, are you starting to think about your wishes now? There is only one wish that can come true. There are so many of you, who can make a wish?" the bat said, surrounding the girls.
"And there is a guardian. Now, it should come from the town..."
"Only one wish can be granted?"
"I still want to test whether it works." Luffy said regretfully.
"For example, ask for three more wishes from the wishing machine?"
Luffy thought about those sexy tricks about making wishes.
