Hearing this, Luffy directly patted the head of the transforming robot.
The transforming robot changed back to its original appearance.
Looking at the little red fox in front of him, Mr. 2 was dumbfounded.
"Was this little guy just now the one who turned into my appearance?"
Mr. 2 went straight down from the mast and then gently touched the transforming robot with his hairy legs.
After confirming that it wasn't a living thing, he dared to get closer to look at it.
Seeing this, Luffy said excitedly:
"His name is Stupid Robot. Raynor gave him to me as a gift. How about it? Amazing, right?"
Hearing this, Mr. 2 fell into thought.
"Stupid?"
Hearing this, Nami punched Luffy on the head.
"Come on, his name is Transforming Robot. Don't insult the cute little fox, okay?"
Hearing this, Luffy smiled awkwardly:
"Ah, right, right, Transforming Robot. From now on, he's my ultimate weapon!"
Hearing this, everyone sweated. With Luffy's personality, this robot will be broken by him sooner or later.
Just then, a small boat suddenly headed towards their direction.
Seeing this, Mr. 2 immediately ran over.
Then he turned back and said:
"My partners are here to pick me up. We can only chat here for now."
Saying that, Mr. 2 jumped onto his companion's small boat and then left.
Luffy waved his hand hard on the ship to say goodbye to Mr. 2.
Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, his face twisted, and he roared:
"Hey, what about the meat you promised me? Give me the meat!"
Hearing this, Mr. 2 waved his hand on the boat.
"As for the meat, I'll treat you next time we meet. I have something urgent to do now. After this job is done, I can give you as much meat as you want!"
Saying that, Mr. 2 ordered his people to hurry up and sail away from here.
Seeing this, Luffy angrily shouted:
"So, you were lying to me just now?!"
Saying that, Luffy directly stretched out his arm to chase, but they were sailing quickly towards Alabasta.
Luffy grabbed at empty air and could only sulk.
"Damn, that guy actually dared to lie to me. I must beat him up next time we meet!"
Just as he was saying this, Vivi, who came out of the cabin, exclaimed.
"That person just now is Mr. 2, the fourth-ranked member of the Baroque Works!"
Hearing this, Luffy and Sanji widened their eyes.
Luffy then scolded:
"Then why didn't you recognize him just now?!"
Hearing this, Vivi said with some self-blame:
"Mr. 2 never shows his face in front of everyone, and he doesn't have a partner. Almost no one inside knows him."
"Just now, I saw the Baroque Works number on their boat, and then I knew he was Mr. 2."
Hearing this, Luffy didn't blame Vivi. He directly hit his palm with his fist and said excitedly:
"Isn't that great? Since he's an enemy, then we have a reason to beat him up, and then we can also have him treat me to a meal of meat!"
Hearing this, Usopp and Sanji showed disdain.
What is this guy thinking about?
Everyone ignored Luffy's words.
Sanji directly lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.
"In that case, isn't it very tricky? That guy's ability is imitation."
"If he turns into any one of us, as long as he uses some tricks, he can make us fall apart."
Hearing this, Nami and Usopp were silent.
Indeed, although they trust each other, if the other party uses some tricks, it's hard to guarantee that they won't suspect each other.
Once suspicion starts, it won't be long before they fall apart.
Just as they were troubled, Raynor directly stood up and said:
"Then why not just put a mark on everyone? Then whoever doesn't have a mark must be fake."
Hearing this, everyone felt it made a lot of sense, but then Luffy acted awkwardly for a long time, then hugged the Transforming Robot and said:
"What's there to be afraid of? My cat robot is much stronger than him!"
Hearing this, Sanji weakly patted Luffy's head, helpless.
"I've told you, his name is Transforming Robot. Besides, he's a fox."
The others ignored Luffy's little interlude and directly discussed it.
Then they drew an X on their arms and tied it with bandages.
If someone later can't show the mark inside the bandage, then he must be fake.
The Straw Hat crew all drew X's on their arms.
At this time, Vivi said awkwardly:
"Um, excuse me, can I draw one too?"
Hearing this, everyone turned around and looked at Vivi with serious expressions.
Seeing this scene, Vivi directly lowered her head.
"I'm really sorry, I just wanted to..."
Before Vivi could finish speaking, Nami directly flicked a brain punch on Vivi's head.
"Come on, what are you thinking in your head? We are partners. If you don't draw one, what if someone impersonates you and we get tricked?"
Hearing this, Vivi directly raised her head and looked at Nami, tears welling up in her eyes.
Then she bit her lip tightly and nodded hard.
"Thank you for being willing to accept me as your partner!"
Saying that, Vivi and Chopper also drew an X on their arms and then wrapped them with bandages.
Tears were already welling up in Chopper's eyes.
After the group hid their marks, Luffy shouted.
"Alright, men, head to Alabasta!"
Hearing the captain's order, all the crew members began to get busy.
Sanji pulled the sails to the maximum and then headed towards Alabasta.
Nami was behind them, using her weather stick to summon wind power to make the ship run faster.
At the current speed, they should be able to reach Alabasta in half a day.
But this made Luffy and the others suffer, having to drink two mouthfuls of seawater from time to time.
Luffy and Chopper are still landlubbers. As soon as they come into contact with seawater, they feel weak all over.
But now is the time to race against the clock.
The sooner they get to Alabasta, the sooner they can save the Alabasta kingdom.
Looking at the busy crowd, Raynor's eyes showed a hint of joy. Perhaps this is the charm of Luffy and the others.
Just as Raynor was thinking, the system prompt sounded in his mind.
