Before I met Luffy, I always thought that the biggest obstacle on the road to conquering Luffy was not Luffy himself, but General Akainu.

I was wrong.

The moment I saw Luffy, I knew how wrong I was.

The biggest obstacle on the road to conquering Luffy was myself!!!!

"Hey hey, we're going to hunt crocodiles today. Do you want to come?"

Looking at Luffy's innocent big eyes, his round baby face, and his small arms and legs … I, I covered my eyes.

Damn, I can't!

My conscience hurts!

He's still a child!

I can't do that!

I'm not a freaking pedophile!!!

"Why did you fall down — — Ace, Ace!

She seems to be dead!

What do we do?? "

Hearing this silly child's anxious calls, I suddenly felt my conscience hurt so much that I couldn't breathe.

Oh my god, why did I think that I could throw away my dignity and crazily chase after this little brat?!

I was so freaking arrogant, I actually thought that I could whore Luffy!?

Who gave me the guts!

How much water did my brain get into it to be this arrogant?!

A foot kicked me in the back. Ace said unhappily, "If you're alive, don't pretend to be dead. Hurry up and get up."

"Sob sob sob, I don't want to face reality. A child like you doesn't understand what it means to have an unbearable life …"

Thinking that there was no Milan Kundera in this world, that there was no one who could catch this joke, I cried even harder.

Me!

A hipster!

A hipster who couldn't live without books!

A person who couldn't write a novel without quoting classics!

A bunch of illiterates who don't understand romance in the world of the Sea King!

Thinking back to when I saw the Sea King fanfiction, I even posted on Weibo, "I beg these hipster female authors to stop talking about literature in front of the Sea King's men. Those idiots won't understand …"

Who would have thought!

Who!

Can!

Want!

Do!

Ah!!!

Now it's my turn to attack the biggest idiot in the group of idiots, the Sea King!

Luffy even miscalculated his own bounty!!!

"Who cares?"

Ace kicked me again. "If you want to leave, hurry up and get up. If you don't want to leave, hurry up and tell me. Don't let Luffy wait for nothing."

"I'll go, I'll go now …" I rolled around on the bed like a college student who didn't want to get out of bed. Finally, I got up with great difficulty. "Getting up early to memorize vocabulary is one thing, but I can't believe that there will be a day where I have to get up early to hunt a crocodile … What kind of unscientific life is this? It's unbelievable …"

The AI added, "Why do you sound like you've memorized words after graduating from high school?"

I had gradually trained myself to be thick-skinned. While putting on my shoes, I defended myself without blushing.

"That's why I said, 'It's fine if you wake up early to memorize words.' If it's not that difficult, do you still need to use it as a comparison?"

The AI was silent for a moment. "… You're right."

After tying my shoelaces, I rushed to the impatient Ace and Luffy. It was rare for me to take the initiative to greet them.

"Go to the back of the mountain to catch a crocodile?

Do I need to bring any weapons? "

Ace snorted. "We found our own weapons. You think of a way."

Luffy's eyes lit up again. He looked at me expectantly. "Use the dragon!

I want to see that dragon again! "

I looked at Luffy's pikapika eyes and then looked at Ace's disdainful but secretly expectant expression. I took a deep breath and nodded.

"It's not easy to get a dragon …" I'll say it again. Saving NP is hell. "But I can try …"

Isn't it just soreness all over?

Isn't it just a C strength and a B + strength that exceeds the endurance of the muscles?

Show me the perseverance of working overtime for 12 hours even though I had severe spinal problems!

The spinal pain back then was much worse than now!

I haven't lost consciousness yet!

I can hold on!

"Yay!" Luffy jumped three feet high and impatiently pulled me forward. "Let's go!

Let's go to the back mountain to see the dragon! "

"We're going to fight the crocodiles!" Ace scolded. "And Luffy, you idiot, bring the steel pipe!

Are you going to use your soft rubber fists to beat up the crocodiles??? "

Luffy turned his head angrily. "My fists are more powerful than guns!

Ace, you're talking nonsense! "

Ace snorted. "Then don't hit your face with your fists."

Luffy stomped his feet in anger. "Just you wait!

One day, I'll use my rubber gun to beat you and the crocodiles down together! "

Ace looked disdainful. "You're a hundred years too early to beat me."

Luffy waved his fists. "Just you wait, I'll beat you soon!"

I looked ahead with my dead fish eyes. "It doesn't matter. Let go of your hand first. Stop shaking me. I'm dizzy. I want to throw up …"

What's so great about the rubber man being able to stretch infinitely?

Why does he have to rotate with me as the axis?!

It was a mess all the way. When we finally arrived at the back of Gorbo Mountain, I felt that my hp had dropped by half. My head was buzzing from the two brats' quarrel. For a moment, I felt that my (original) body's) nervous breakdown was going to act up.

"Take pity on my nerves!"

I imitated Mrs. Bennett's tone in Pride and Prejudice. "Listen, you two brats. If you two continue to quarrel, I'm going to kick your butts with my boots!"

"What the hell are you talking about?" This was Ace, whose face had the words "speak human language" written all over it.

"Aren't you wearing boots?

Do you have a fever? "Luffy asked with a puzzled expression.

I suddenly felt that my health bar had dropped by half again.

I was so depressed that I almost knelt down.

"It's fine if you don't understand … Sob sob sob. Is there no one in this cold and heartless world who can catch my joke?"

It was too cruel!

There wasn't even a single person who laughed along with me!

"Stop talking nonsense. We're here."

Ace put the steel pipe on his back and turned to look at me impatiently. "Hurry up and run if you want to."

I jumped down and used the Saintess' Iron Fist with Three Red Bands to beat the crocodile.

I wiped the blood off my face and looked up to ask Ace with a smile.

"What did you say?

The wind is too strong. I can't hear you clearly. "

Ace was speechless.

After a few seconds of awkward silence, Ace's face suddenly changed.

"Turn around!

Idiot! "

"Huh?"

At the side, Luffy was eager to try. No, he didn't even want to try. He directly jumped down and shouted with a smile that made me wonder if his brain was working or not.

"Let me help you!!!"

"… Huh?????"

"Luffy, you idiot!

So annoying!

I don't care about you anymore! "

Ace was flustered and exasperated, but his body was honest. He grabbed the steel pipe and jumped down.

I was dumbfounded. Luffy and I took the left and right sides of the crocodiles that were trying to bite me.

I finally understood what happened. "Eeeeeee!!!!!"

"How can there be an idiot like you!" Ace beat up the crocodiles while scolding me. "Crocodiles live in groups. Isn't that common knowledge?

You jumped down alone?!

You didn't even know to be alert when you jumped down. Is your brain working??? "

I was angry too. I punched another crocodile that popped out from under Ace's feet and scolded him back without hesitation.

"Do you think everyone plays Man vs. Wild when they have nothing better to do?

I haven't seen the world and nature for almost ten years. Who would remember the habits of crocodiles?

Is it my fault that I haven't fought a crocodile before?! "

"What the hell is that?!"

Ace pinched the crocodile's mouth and kicked its weakest spot in the throat. "Also, there should be a limit to your nonsense. How old are you? How can it be almost ten years?!!"

I felt wronged, so I retorted.

Ace didn't want to be outdone and raised his voice. The two of us started fighting like two black-eyed chickens (or maybe we should say elementary school chickens).

"I do!"

"You don't!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"No, no, no!"

"— — Wuuuuu, Ace, help!

I can't beat this one!!! "

Luffy's scream woke us up from our child-like bickering. I quickly turned around. I didn't even have time to look at the AI who was rolling on the ground laughing. I saw … Luffy with half of his body about to fall into the crocodile's mouth????
