Luffy successfully bypassed Fujitora, and he, Zoro, and Law rushed away.
Not long after they ran, the ground of Dressrosa began to shake violently without warning.
Everyone lost their footing and could only hold onto buildings to maintain balance.
In the blink of an eye, a towering stone giant, reaching high into the clouds, appeared before everyone.
The stone giant exuded an oppressive aura, with every inch of its body composed of mountains and the houses of the town.
Luffy and Zoro looked up, stunned into immobility.
Although they had seen many giant creatures on the Grand Line, the shock they felt in the face of such a colossal entity was still hard to suppress.
"What is that!!!"
Luffy's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but exclaim, his voice full of disbelief.
Zoro stared intently at the stone giant, his expression gradually turning serious, and he muttered, "That guy is..."
"Pica," Law looked up, his expression calm, and he called out the name in a flat tone.
Zoro frowned slightly.
"An Executive I haven't seen before, huh? He looks quite troublesome."
Just then, the stone giant Pica suddenly let out a roar.
"Come on! Those who dare to defy our family, you must first get past me!"
The voice was high-pitched and thin, like metal scraping, instantly breaking the tense atmosphere.
Luffy and Zoro's eyes twitched uncontrollably a few times.
"(; ຶ ཽ ළ ຶ ཽ )!! Ha"
Luffy tried hard to hold back his laughter, his cheeks flushed red, his body trembling slightly, as it was truly impolite to laugh at such a tense moment.
However, that high-pitched voice was simply too comical, and he ultimately couldn't hold it in.
He let out a "Pfft" of laughter, then doubled over, rolling on the ground.
( ⌯ ˃ ̶ ᷄ ₎ ₃ ₍ ˂ ̶ ᷄ ) He laughed and shouted, "Sorry... Hahahaha... His voice is so high-pitched! Hahahaha..."
Luffy's laughter echoed around like thunder, and he pointed at Pica's massive body, laughing so hard he was bent over backward, his body shaking like a sieve.
"That voice! It doesn't suit him at all... How can there be such a strange voice in the world!"
For a moment, the originally tense scene suddenly fell silent, eerily quiet, as if the entire Dressrosa had been put on mute, with only this unrestrained laughter crashing through the air, clearly audible in every corner.
"Straw Hat!" Pica's high-pitched voice was full of disbelief, his tone rising even further with anger.
Luffy laughed until tears and snot came out, covering his stomach with his hands, rolling around on the ground.
"Don't talk anymore... Hahahaha, I beg you..."
Pica's pupils flickered rapidly with rage, shooting out dazzling red light.
Immediately after, he raised his giant arm high, clenching his single hand into a fist, and it fell like a small mountain towards Luffy's direction.
The residents of Dressrosa, seeing this terrifying scene, turned pale with fright, screaming and fleeing in panic.
The Marines nearby, seeing this, also disregarded their duties and fled in disarray with the crowd.
"Lord Pica is enraged, the town is going to fall!" a terrified shout came from the crowd.
Seeing this, Luffy, with quick eyes and hands, grabbed Trafalgar and ran.
Zoro, while running alongside him, couldn't help but complain, "Luffy, please stop making fun of our enemies, alright!"
At this moment, Pica stared intently at Luffy again and roared, "Don't think you can run!!!"
Hearing Pica's still high-pitched and comical voice, Zoro also couldn't help but let out a "Pfft" of laughter ( ⌯ ˃ ̶ ᷄ ₎ ₃ ₍ ˂ ̶ ᷄ ).
He laughed and quickly apologized, "Gomen gomen (Sorry, sorry)."
Luffy looked at Zoro with a bright expression (≧ ｗ ≦ ;), grinning and saying, "See, you laughed too, didn't you?"
Trafalgar Law sighed helplessly, looking speechless: "You two, honestly..."
Law inadvertently looked up, eyeing the rapidly approaching giant fist, and urged loudly, "Hurry up, we're going to get flattened!"
Before he finished speaking, the fist crashed down with a deafening "boom," as if the sky and earth were collapsing, and a powerful shockwave swept over like a surging tsunami.
Luffy reacted quickly, taking a deep breath, his cheeks instantly puffing up like a large airbag.
His body began to inflate at a visible speed, like a rapidly inflating balloon, becoming round in an instant, thoroughly protecting Law and Zoro behind him.
Pica's fist collided directly towards the three of them.
Under the impact of this force, Luffy's body, along with Zoro and Law, was bounced away.
The three were instantly thrown violently into the air by this wild force.
A moment later, amidst the flying dust, Zoro cut through the stone fragments pressing down on him.
Suddenly, he heard a commotion above his head and instinctively looked up.
He saw Luffy and Law hanging precariously from the tip of a building, like two pathetic dolls, swaying in the wind.
Luffy was still laughing carelessly, while Law's face was full of helplessness and anger, mumbling something incessantly.
It turned out that Law's pants were caught on the sharp tip of the building.
At this moment, Luffy's legs instinctively wrapped tightly around Law's waist, and he was hanging upside down beneath Law.
Even in this situation, Luffy didn't forget to greet Zoro, who was running towards them.
"Zoro!! Over here, over here!"
Law looked at Luffy's awkward and comical posture, then at Zoro, who was watching the spectacle, and he was so annoyed his teeth ached, unable to help but roar, "Let go!"
Seeing the bad situation, Luffy quickly stretched out his arm towards where Law was caught, trying to pull Law down.
Then came a crisp "rip" of tearing fabric, as the material around Law's waistband finally couldn't bear the strain and ripped.
Immediately after, the two fell straight down from the sky without any cushion, landing with a dull "thud." Luffy landed squarely on Law, the two of them intertwined, with Luffy lying on Law's abdomen.
Poor Law, tormented by this series of events, let out another pained groan... "Get off me!!!" Law's eyes were bloodshot, practically spitting fire, as he glared through gritted teeth at Luffy, who was lying on his sensitive area.
He felt like crying but had no tears: These two brothers were definitely here to torment him, they must be toxic!
Luffy, however, remained carefree, tilting his head, looking at the extremely angry Law with a cheeky grin, even flashing a wide, toothy smile and chuckling, "Sorry, sorry, haha."
No sooner had he spoken than Luffy pushed off with his feet, sitting up with a thrust.
But this only made the situation worse; Luffy's buttocks landed squarely and heavily between Law's legs.
[Picture for proof]
Law felt a piercing pain, couldn't help but let out a scream, and his body twitched violently uncontrollably.
"Ah... That hurts... What exactly are you doing! You are absolutely, absolutely doing this on purpose!!!"
At this moment, Law was filled with grief and indignation, feeling that Dressrosa was simply his "two balls and a gun" disaster zone, utterly unfriendly to him.
Luffy, however, still chuckled carelessly and nonchalantly hummed, "Mm."
"'Mm' your head!!!" Law looked at Luffy, who was still sitting on him, so angry that he almost fainted. He admitted it, didn't he!! He admitted it!!!
