140: Chapter 140 The Best Sword in the Whole Village"Huff, huff, huff"
Luffy knelt on one knee, panting heavily.That move had exhausted him, and even the Panlong Staff had become dull and lifeless due to overexertion.Helpless, Luffy could only return it to the system space and let it recover on its own.
The crew members anxiously surrounded Luffy.When they heard that Luffy was just overexerted, they all breathed a sigh of relief.Then, they turned their attention to the camel and Karu standing to the side in a daze.Looking at the four strong legs, they all swallowed hard.In that instant, they all had already decided how to cook the four camel legs and the whole duck.
Camel/Karu: (っ°Д °;)っ I have a feeling that some treacherous people want to harm me.
The tough camel was no longer tough at this moment.It quietly retreated, ready to run away at the slightest sign of trouble.Meanwhile, Karu hid behind Vivi, trembling with fear, afraid that he would turn into braised duck, pressed duck, old duck soup, or Peking duck in the next second.
Fortunately, the local residents gathered around and expressed their sincere gratitude to the Straw Hat crew.Although the situation was chaotic, everyone saw that the Straw Hat crew had saved them.With the warm hospitality of the townspeople, Luffy quickly regained a lot of strength.After a night of recovery, Luffy was full of energy again the next day, and even felt that he had no problem sleeping through the night.
Unfortunately, after so much time, there was no sign of the Panlong Staff recovering.When asked, Ling'er replied that he should wait.During the recovery period, Luffy could not use the weapon, and Ling'er thoughtfully gave Luffy a substitute weapon.
"Ding!We have gifted you a weapon from the Dragon Rider world—the best sword in the entire village."
A bad feeling rose in Luffy's mind.Just as he was about to say something, a familiar weapon descended, and a sword gleaming with cold light fell from the sky, landing right next to Luffy in the ground.A chill ran from the base of Luffy's tail to the top of his head.
"Ling'er, you absolutely did this on purpose (￢︿̫̿￢☆)", Luffy roared at Ling'er in his heart, but Ling'er didn't tolerate him.
"Ding, forced mission issued: Defeat Crocodile with the best sword in the village.Success reward: Restore the Dragon Staff.Failure: Hmph, reminder: During this period, the host is not allowed to give it to others, otherwise." Ling'er issued the mission with a cold laugh.
Luffy panicked.He had a feeling that the punishment for failing the mission wouldn't be good, and he hurriedly shouted in his mind, "Wait, didn't you say there wouldn't be any more punishment?Why is there still punishment?Besides, explain yourself clearly!What will happen if I give the sword to someone else?"
However, Ling'er simply replied, "I am a system.If I say it exists, it exists; if I say it doesn't, it doesn't.If the host wants to know the consequences of giving the sword to someone else, just try it yourself and you'll find out soon enough!"
Luffy felt a sharp pain in his groin, but there was nothing he could do.At this moment, he was a little envious of the system that had possessed a certain third person next door (at this time, in a certain Luo world, the third person who was being affectionate with a certain Wu sneezed).Helpless, Luffy could only draw the best sword in the village, and with a dark face, he carried the sword out of the rain, leaving his companions completely bewildered.It wasn't that he didn't want to put the sword back into the system space, but he didn't know what Ling'er had gone crazy for today, actually shutting down the system space.
Led by Vivi, Luffy and his crew quickly approached the royal city on camels given to them by the residents of the Rain Land.Along the way, Luffy used the sword to cut down many scorpions and was surprised to find that it worked very well, without the embarrassing situation of breaking after one cut as seen in the story.Zoro, who cherishes his sword, stared at it longingly, but remembering the system's warning, Luffy could only ignore Zoro's gaze.
