I, the great swordsman, am definitely not a bootlicker

Deep in the jungle of the island, high mountains like a fortress surround a bustling village. In the deepest part of the village, close to the cliff, is a castle - Nine Snakes Castle. The village is full of buildings with Chinese style, which makes Zoro feel quite familiar.

At this moment, he had followed Margaret and the other two to the doctor's residence, and at the same time, attracted a large number of women to watch. Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished. Normally, there must be people watching the game in the arena among these women. However, the system prompted that the only ones who could be bound were the captain of the national warriors - Kikyo, and the doctor on the island - Bella Donna.

So Zoro bound himself to No. 24 Kikyo and No. 25 Belladonna with a little disappointment.

"Outsiders? How did you get here through the windless sky?" Kikyo frowned.

"Well... we encountered a powerful enemy and were sent flying, but don't worry, we mean no harm. My companion is in imminent danger, please save him." Zoro unleashed his powerful observation Haki towards Kikyo, Belladonna, and the group of girls watching. "As long as my companion wakes up, we'll find a ship and leave. We won't pose any danger to this country."

"It's so pitiful, Belladonna, please treat this child quickly." The group of girls around had their intelligence forcibly lowered by Zoro.

However, Kikyo is no ordinary minion: "Although it seems that you don't want to tell lies, but after being beaten and sent here, it's hard to believe."

Belladonna checked Luffy's body and said, "Before he was poisoned, this child was indeed covered in wounds. It looked like he had just experienced a fierce battle."

"Well, it was indeed a fierce battle. We encountered Bartholomew Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He was the one who drove us to this island."

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea!" Kikyo was surprised. "It's not surprising that they are people of the same status as Lady Snake. But you were able to survive the hands of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. It seems that your strength is also extraordinary."

Well, it seems that the people on this island admire Hancock's strength very much. But to be honest, apart from Big Bear and his Seraph, no one in this world can fly from the Sabaody Archipelago to here.

Zoro shook his head: "He showed mercy."

"No wonder..." Kikyo nodded, obviously convinced.

Belladonna also began to treat Luffy. She first asked them to pull out all the mushrooms on Luffy's body. Zoro naturally rushed to help, saying that he could not trouble them anymore. In fact, he did not want them to pull out the wrong things, which would cause his white lie to be exposed.

Then there was a scene of burning rubber leather. Even Luffy, who was in a coma, was grimacing in pain. Then it was time for the cleaning process. Of course, this job was also taken over by Zoro.

During this period, Zoro used the same excuse, saying that they had saved Luffy, and once again told a white lie to successfully confess his love to Kikyo and Belladonna, earning another 2 love points.

Just after Zoro finished helping Luffy clean up, the worldly-wise Granny New came. She could tell at a glance that Zoro and Luffy were not human, no...it should be said that they were not women.

"man!!"

By the river, the women, led by Kikyo, drew their bows and aimed their arrows at Zoro. Kikyo sternly questioned, "Men are forbidden to enter Amazon Lily. You are men. Why did you lie to us?!"

Zoro didn't want to make things too awkward with them, after all, Luffy's wounds still needed bandaging, so he used his top-level observation Haki to cover the entire scene, looking innocent and surprised: "Huh? When did I say we were women?"

The women by the river looked at each other in bewilderment. Even Kikyo was stunned for a moment, then she began to frown: "Why didn't you tell us you were men?"

Zoro's face was filled with innocence and confusion. He spread his hands and said, "Huh? Do you want to listen to what you are saying? How do we not look like men?"

Under Zoro's powerful observation Haki, the women fell into self-blame and put down their weapons: I'm sorry, we were so ignorant...

Even Kikyo slowly lowered her weapon: "No matter what, men are prohibited from entering this country. This has been an iron rule for hundreds of years. However, considering your special circumstances, please leave immediately!"

Oscar glanced at Luffy, hesitant: "But... my companions..." Then he looked lonely, carried Luffy on his back, picked up his clothes and straw hat: "Okay... thank you..."

After saying that, he turned and left, and the women around him looked at him with sympathy.

Finally, Doctor Bella Donna made a difficult decision: "Wait, no matter if it's a man or a woman, in the eyes of a doctor, there is only a patient. Come with me to the clinic, I'll give him some medicine, and then you can leave!"

Zoro stopped and grinned at the girls with his back to them.

"Really? Thank you so much." Zoro turned his head with a look of joy.

"This... this is a doctor's job. Let's go!"

Although Kikyo was the captain of the national defense warriors, he followed the two closely with three national defense warriors and said with a frown: "After applying the medicine, you must leave quickly. If Lady Snake comes back and sees you, she will definitely execute you."

Zoro looked at her in surprise. Wow, this young lady is the type who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

Kikyo saw Zoro's gaze and turned her head away: "Don't get me wrong, as the captain of the national defense warriors, if Lady Snake knew that I didn't drive you away, I would be blamed."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you." Zoro smiled slightly.

Grandma New, however, had a strange look on her face. She was an old sparrow from Dongting Lake, and had once been a member of the legendary Rocks Pirates. She always felt that something was wrong. When did Nine Snake Island become so reasonable in treating men?

After Luffy was bandaged, Zoro helped him get dressed and put away his copy of Rayleigh's life card. There was no reason for him to stay in the village, so he carried Luffy away. Anyway, with Luffy's personality, he would come back to borrow a boat from the big guys here, so it would be better to leave this troublesome matter to Luffy.

"How are you planning to leave the island?" Among the national defenders, the kind-hearted blond girl, Margaret, chased after them.

"Well... let's build a raft when we get to the island."

"But, outside the island is a doldrums zone, full of sea monsters. A raft won't work."

"There's nothing we can do about it. We must set sail quickly to reunite with our companions." Zoro grinned.

At this time, Kikyo also followed: "Let's go, we have to watch you leave the island."

So, the four national defenders followed Zoro all the way to the edge of the island. As soon as Zoro put Luffy down, the guy woke up leisurely and shook his head: "Huh? This is... where... right, Zoro!"

Zoro held his forehead slightly: "I'm here!"

"Where is this? Who are these guys... I remember after I ate the mushrooms..." Luffy pointed at Kikyo and the others rudely.

"Tsk, the man really has no manners at all." Kikyo was very dissatisfied with him.

Zoro punched him on the head: "I told you not to eat it! You ate poisonous mushrooms and almost died. These are your lifesavers."

"It hurts... So that's how it is." Luffy straightened his straw hat: "Thank you!"

"Humph!"

"Hey! Zoro, what are you doing?" Luffy looked at Zoro holding the knife, his face confused.

"This is Daughter Island. Men are not allowed to enter. Those who can't borrow a boat can only cut down trees, build a raft, and return to the Sabaody Archipelago."

"Right! We must get back and reunite with our friends as soon as possible! Oh, and where's Rayleigh's life card?"

"In your pocket..." Zoro replied while chopping down trees.

"Hehe! Found it!" Luffy held it in his hands as if it were a treasure.

"What is this?" Margaret asked curiously.

"This... look!" Luffy opened his palm and saw the paper moving in a certain direction.

"It's incredible...paper moves!"

"A lot has happened, and our companions have been beaten to the ground! But as long as everyone holds this piece of paper, we will definitely meet again! Because they are all very tenacious!"

After saying that, Luffy started to pick up vines and tie them around the tree that Zoro had cut down.

Margaret was a little curious: "Who are your companions..."

"Oh, we're pirates! Do you know anything about pirates?"

"You are pirates? Our country's emperor is also a pirate!"

"Really...is it a pirate group composed entirely of women? Are they powerful?" Luffy also became curious.

"What a stupid question." Kikyo interrupted expressionlessly, "Snake-sama is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Those who can join the Nine Snake Pirates are the best warriors in our country... Of course they are powerful."

"Seven Warlords of the Sea!?" Luffy stopped what he was doing, his eyes regaining his former fighting spirit: "I hope everyone can survive like us. As long as they survive, no matter how many times I fight them, I will definitely defeat them!"

"Men are indeed violent creatures!" Kikyo and the other three immediately picked up their bows and arrows and aimed at Luffy.

"Huh!?" Luffy was confused: "What's wrong!?"

"Who did you just say you were going to defeat?"

Zoro held his forehead slightly. Who was so rude when he fell to the ground, drawing the bow at every turn? "Don't get excited. He was talking about Bartholomew Kuma... not your Lady Snake."

Luffy also reacted and touched the back of his head: "Sorry..."
