Chapter 281 Rain? Wouldn't It Be Enough to Have Hands?

"Hey! Don't underestimate us, you bastards!" Zoro suddenly became unhappy. He pointed the barbell at Tang Sen and said, "I want to become the world's greatest swordsman. How could I turn around and run away?"

"That's right! Crocodile or whatever, I will definitely beat him away!" Luffy didn't mind what Tang Sen said and just shouted optimistically.

Others also expressed their dissatisfaction. Of course, some of them sounded a little unfounded in their dissatisfaction.

Tang Sen curled his lips, sat back on the side of the boat, and simply said: "It's a naive idea."

"If you are going to die then, don't think about asking me to save you."

"Okay, stop arguing." Nami covered her forehead and said helplessly: "Judging from the chart, we should be almost there. There is still some distance from the river to the rainy land, so we can only rely on walking. ”

"So fast?" Luffy's eyes lit up, he stretched out his hands, grabbed the side of the ship, and ejected towards the shore: "Crocodar! I'm coming!"

"Luffy!" Nami shouted angrily, "You're going in the wrong direction!"

After a lot of trouble, the ship successfully found a place to anchor. Luffy's head was drooped, with two bags bulging above his head, carrying all the supplies on his back, and walking behind the team without any fighting spirit.

"It's so hot."

After walking for less than half an hour, Chopper fell directly to the ground, panting: "I can't move, it's too hot!"

"It's a desert after all." Weiwei explained patiently: "Now is the hottest time, the temperature can reach more than 40 degrees, and it will take more than ten hours to walk to the rainy area. Chopper, your fur is too thick. Drink more water."

"We don't have much water." Nami complained: "The water in Alabasta is too expensive!"

"There is no way, it hasn't rained in three years. Except for the royal capital, water is hard to find anywhere else." Weiwei looked a little sad: "Coupled with the continuous sandstorms, many oases have been buried. .”

"The sandstorm is probably Crocodile's trick." Tang Sen, who was walking at the front, said something.

The hot weather has no effect on him.

"That's why we need to stop him." Weiwei clenched her fists, looked back, and was suddenly startled: "Where's Luffy!"

"Huh?"

"Eh?!"

"This guy got separated again!"

This is already too common for the Straw Hats, but...

"He's still carrying our supplies!"

Sanji was furious and was about to turn around to find him.

"Don't go." Nami held him back and sighed: "It would be strange if he could wait for you on the same road. Now I don't know where he has gone."

"So, don't leave important supplies with Luffy! By the way, there's also Zoro!"

"What does it have to do with me!"

The group of people started arguing as usual. Tang Sen rubbed his eyebrows and said, "If you want to find the Straw Hat Boy, go ahead. We just happened to part ways here. I have to rush to the rainy place."

"Let's go together." Weiwei said: "If we are separated in this desert, it will not be good news."

"Don't worry about Luffy, he will always find a way to get it back in strange ways." Nami said helplessly, "Maybe by the time we get to the rainy place, he will have arrived already."

"Then what we see is his body." Tang Sen said unceremoniously: "I don't think he can deal with Crocodile. And the problem is, I think with his brainless character, I'm afraid he can't. Will realize that."

"Luffy is very powerful!" Nami retorted, but after all, she had to face the Shichibukai, so she was still a little worried, so she quickened her pace: "It seems that there is no time to go back to get supplies. Fortunately, the distance is not far. Let’s try to get to the rainy place before dark!”

The group continued on the road, but soon they realized that they had underestimated the desert.

The entire desert is like an oven. Walking in it makes people feel like they are being steamed. The water in the body is evaporated crazily. The group of people is so dry that they can't even speak without a trace of saliva in their mouths. .

"Should we be here soon?" Usopp asked weakly, almost using his hands and feet.

"We are already a third of the way." Weiwei cheered him up: "Keep on holding on!"

"No, I can't survive." Usopp lay directly on the ground: "I have a disease that will kill me once I walk!"

"If you don't get up, you will really die, bastard!" Nami picked him up: "Zoron, I will leave this person to you to take care of!"

"Why!" Veins popped up on Zoro's forehead: "I've already dragged one here!"

He made a trailer out of simple wood, and on top of the trailer was Chopper, who was already so hot that he was unconscious.

"Speaking of which, the man in front of me looks so innocent! Is he really a human?" Sanji held a very dry cigarette in his mouth. He rarely lit it and just complained.

Tang Sen stopped and turned around.

"He didn't even shed a drop of sweat!" Usopp lay on the ground, "Sure enough, he is indeed a monster!"

"You are too weak." Tang Sen mocked mercilessly: "If you can't even walk across the desert, why are you talking about dealing with Crocodile?"

"Just be merciful at this time, Tang Sen." Weiwei said helplessly: "Everyone seems to be in trouble. If there is no water, we can only find a shady place to rest temporarily and wait until the sun is about to set. Let’s go on our way again.”

"Trouble." Tang Sen curled his lips, "I'm not in the mood to wait for you."

"Weiwei, your condition seems to be okay. Let's go first and let these pirates take their time here." He said, "Anyway, they can't be of much help."

"Hey! This person is too arrogant!" Usopp stood up with strength: "I can't let you take away our partners!"

"Isn't it just walking? The great Usopp has no problem at all! Just walk all the way to the rain without rest!"

"That's right!" Sanji stepped forward, "Beautiful Weiwei-chan, do you need me to carry you?"

"You don't have to force yourself." Weiwei said, "We are partners. Of course I won't leave on my own."

She walked up to Tang Sen, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Tang Sen, can you wait a moment? Everyone is really short of water."

Tang Sen stared at her for a while and complained impatiently: "Really, you are obviously a princess, why do you want to hang out with these pirates?"

"Isn't it just water? As long as it rains, it will be solved."

He raised his hand and pointed to the sky.

"Huh?" Nami saw this action and complained: "You are not praying for rain, are you? Where is this custom of praying for rain?"

"This is the desert of Alabasta, how can it rain."

"So, you have too little knowledge." Tang Sen's tone was calm, the magic power in his body was running, and he began to chant a long incantation of ancient magic.

He has not yet fully studied the ancient magic that controls the weather. Although he can cast spells without a wand, he still needs to use spells to coordinate them.

"Hey, is this person serious?" Usopp looked at the sky.

"Probably. It's impossible." Weiwei's expression was a little complicated.

As an Alabasta native, she knows how much her people have suffered because of the lack of rain, but now a person says that she can make rain fall at will in the desert?

Then. If this kind of thing really happens

Weiwei's thoughts were interrupted by a sudden shadow. She raised her head suddenly and saw that the scorching sun that was originally shining high had been obscured by clouds.

The clouds began to turn from white to gray, and the heat in the air suddenly dissipated a bit.

Raindrops fell from an altitude of tens of thousands of meters and hit the hot gravel, making a sizzling sound.

Amid the rain, Weiwei's face became moist for a moment.

"Really. Is it raining?"
