Chapter 67: Is This a Snake Island

Chapter 67 - 67: Is This a Snake Island Just as the four girls were about to take a break, they heard faint sounds of heavy objects crushing branches in the distance. The girls immediately became alert, each looking in a different direction, scanning for any signs. "That sound is coming from over there!" Nami said with a serious expression, pointing ahead. "Let's go!" Nojiko said in a low voice. The four girls immediately used Soru, disappearing from their spot and quickly hiding in the branches of a towering tree. They kept a close eye on the ground, and soon a massive snake with a large lump on its head appeared right where they had just been standing. Seeing this snake, the girls gasped in shock, their mouths dropping open in unison! It was even bigger than the giant snake they had just defeated! At that moment, the snake below began to roar angrily around the two snake bodies they had taken down. Even if they couldn't understand it, they knew this snake must be related to the one they had just fought, and it was venting its rage. Watching the snake's scales glinting in the light, the four girls felt a bit overwhelmed, but they still wanted to give it a try. They were determined to take down this snake! Nami quietly opened a space door, and the four girls stepped inside to discuss their battle plan. "This snake's scales are shiny; it must be tough, with way better defense than the last one!" Daisy said, looking serious. "It seems its weak points are only its eyes and belly. I noticed that its belly scales are a bit softer," Kuina said thoughtfully. The other girls nodded in agreement. "Maybe the lumps on its head are weak points too. I noticed they don't reflect light," Nami recalled. The four girls talked it over, sharing ideas, and eventually came up with a battle plan. First, Nami would attract the snake's attention since her Door Door Fruit ability would keep her safe from its attacks. While the snake was enraged and losing its mind, Kuina and Nojiko would suddenly emerge from the alternate space to attack the lumps and eyes on the snake's head. Once they landed their hits, they would quickly back off, allowing the others to attack again, focusing all their strength on the snake's head. Finally, Daisy would take the chance to strike using her Dissection Fruit ability to instantly dissect the snake's head, severing it completely! The plan was simple, but executing it wouldn't be easy. The massive size and tough scales of the snake were significant obstacles, so they needed to rely on speed! "I... I'm ready to go out!" Nami's voice trembled slightly. Though she had little courage, her determination at times was undeniable. "Nami, you got this! You can do it!" Nojiko cheered her on, fully aware of Nami's feelings. "Nami! Don't be afraid, we can definitely take it down!" Kuina said seriously, looking at Nami. Daisy and the other two girls looked at Nami with eyes full of trust. "Okay! I'm going out!" Nami said firmly, nodding her head. She was resolved now. She had always been the most timid, but after spending a year with Ryuen, she had developed a bit of a fearless attitude. This time, stepping up to draw the snake's attention was also a chance for her to challenge herself. After all, she couldn't always hide at the back. With that, the four girls began their action! Outside, the snake had stopped its furious thrashing. Its massive body reared up over ten meters, and its vicious eyes scanned the area. The place where the giant snake had been defeated was now in ruins. "Hey!" "Monster snake! Look over here!" Nami shouted as she opened a space door against the trunk of a large tree and knocked on the bark with force. The strange python was indeed attracted. It raised its snake head, towering over ten meters high, and suddenly looked in Nami's direction. "Bipedal creature? So small? Never mind! It's time for revenge!" In an instant, the python let out an angry roar, opened its massive, bloody mouth, and charged toward Nami at high speed! The python's body was already huge, and with its speed, it was about to reach Nami's space in no time. At that moment, Nami quickly closed the space door, causing the python to crash straight into a tree trunk! The tremendous impact broke the tall tree, and the python felt dizzy from the collision. That tree was several dozen meters high! As it crashed, it not only broke the tree but also suffered from the recoil. "Ha ha ha..." "You can't hit me, can you? How frustrating, huh?" Nami taunted as she stepped out from behind another tree. The python slowly regained its senses but saw Nami's movement. Even though it was just a snake, it understood that this tiny bipedal creature was mocking it. In an instant, it was furious! It charged at Nami with even more speed, and just as it was about to reach her, it sprayed a green liquid from its mouth! Nami was shocked at this scene, fear flashing across her youthful face. She quickly closed the space door and dodged, but some of the green liquid still sprayed into the alternate space! Nami, still trembling, looked at the green liquid inside the space, grateful that she had dodged quickly; otherwise, she would have been hit. "Nami, are you okay?" Nojiko and the others rushed over, looking concerned. "I'm fine!" Nami said firmly. After that, she expelled the green liquid from the alternate space, knowing that it was definitely toxic. This time, the python didn't crash into the tree trunk; instead, it bit into the trunk, creating a huge gash! With its support gone, the tree came crashing down, smashing the low bushes nearby. The python was truly enraged now; this bipedal creature had toyed with it twice! As the ruler of the island, it couldn't accept such humiliation! Thinking the creature would only show up from behind the tree trunk, the python began whipping its tail to knock down the trees one by one. "It's time, Nami! Be careful this time!" Kuina sensed that the python had lost its mind. "I got it!" Nami replied with determination, taking a deep breath before opening four space doors! At that moment, the four girls were ready! Nami stepped out of one of the doors, which opened on the trunk of the giant tree they had just hidden behind! "Hey!" "Big guy! I'm over here!" Nami called out, slapping the tree trunk. The python's head immediately turned toward Nami, its eyes turning a furious red! It roared and quickly lunged toward Nami, its massive mouth wide open, ready to spray a large amount of venom! At that moment, Kuina and Nojiko burst out from a nearby space door! "Rankyaku!" Kuina launched the first attack, hitting the python directly in both eyes! The python's eyes exploded! The immense pain made it scream and thrash around uncontrollably! "Good opportunity!" "Soru!" Nojiko gripped her sword tightly and used Marine Rokushiki to instantly teleport to the giant snake's head, landing a direct blow on the bump on its head! "Ha!" Kuina attacked again, striking another bump with her sword! It worked! The two bumps on the snake's head were indeed its weak points! Nojiko and Kuina quickly retreated! The pain caused the giant snake to lose all reason, and it began to roll around wildly, its tail whipping out in all directions. "Room!" "Surgical cut!" Daisy seized the moment and quickly sliced through the massive snake's head. The snake roared and opened its mouth wide, giving Daisy a chance. With no defense, she easily cut through the upper half of the snake's mouth, separating it! "Boom!!" The giant snake was finally taken down, crashing to the ground, though its body continued to twitch. "Yay!!" "Girls! We did it!" Nami shouted excitedly. "We really are the best!" "Hee hee hee!" The four girls were thrilled; they had managed to take down such a terrifying giant snake together! Just then, countless hissing sounds erupted, similar to those made by the giant snake earlier! They looked around and saw that another dozen giant snakes had appeared! "This... can't be Snake Island..." Daisy said, her voice trembling. "Nami!" Nojiko whispered, alert as she scanned the area. Nami understood and quickly opened the portal, and the four girls immediately dove inside! We can't win; we really can't win! --- ---- You can read 10 Chapters ahead on my pat reon.com/GMadman
