Chapter 212: Rescue in the snow
"Is very weak, but there is something right ahead." Tashigi(Vivi) warned them.
They were getting close to the big lake in the middle of the island when they spotted something in the snow.
"There is something half buried over there, I think I see a face." Cooper(Sanji) hurried up to remove that person from the snow.
"Is the samurai, we found him!"
"Is he dead?" Asked Zoro.
"No, I can still feel his aura." Tashigi(Vivi) observed the samurai with care.
"I'm not much of a doctor, but let me try something. "
Seeing her serious demeanor, the two of them nodded and gave her some room to work.
She got to his side, raised her foot…and brought it down on his head.
"Wake up!"
"What the hell are you doing?!" Shouted Zoro.
"Nfhdgahhh!" The samurai came to life and started coughing.
"It worked?" Said Chopper(Sanji) with incredulity.
"See?" She threw Zoro a smug expression. But to be honest, she wasn't that sure if that was going to have any effect.
"I thought I was going to die!" Cried the samurai.
"You almost did…how did you end up buried in snow? Were you defeated by someone?" Asked Chopper(Sanji).
"No…I got stiff all of a sudden and I could not move…"
"Yes, that happens to me sometimes." Admitted Chopper(Sanji).
Zoro threw him a glance.
"Ew… don't say something like that again while using Chopper body, please…" Tashigi(Vivi) begged.
"I didn't need to know that about you…but I didn't mean it that way." Said the samurai.
"You see, because of this magic of mine, I have a weakness. If any part of my body is submerged in water, I lose all my strength and become unable to move."
"All devil fruit users are the same."
Chopper(Sanji) spoke before realizing something.
"Wait, this must mean that your torso is somewhere, underwater."
"Yes, I do feel that my body is underwater." Agreed the samurai.
"Well, there is a lake right over there. "
Zoro pointed.
"Can you feel anything from there?"
She focused on the area of the lake and was able to find a familiar aura, it was exactly the same as the samurai one but a bit weaker.
"Yes, is definitely in there." She said.
"Let's hurry then" Said Chopper(Sanji).
"But is in the water!, You would need to dive into the frozen lake!. " Exclaimed the samurai.
"Yes, we know that. But is not like you can swim now, can you?" Said Chopper(Sanji).
The man was shocked.
"But you are pirates!, Why would you help me so much? You don't even know me."
"What can I say?...we are some weird pirates I guess." Chopper(Sanji) shrugged.
"Okay, mosshead, is your turn to be useful..jump into the lake and retrieve the torso."
"What?!, Why do I have to do it?, and what do you mean by being useful!, you have done nothing yet" Complained Zoro.
"But you are the only one who can swim, Vivi and I are fruit users." Said the chef.
"You may still be, but she is in the body of that marine and she is not a fruit user, isn't she?" Zoro pointed out.
"I'll go." Said Tashigi(Vivi) made the decision.
"You don't have to put beautifully body in harm's way, let the stupid swordsman do that." Chopper(Sanji) recommended.
"Without observation haki, it would take him too long to find it, I can track down the torso in no time." She said.
Chopper(Sanji) sighed.
"You are right. If only the mosshead had bothered to learn a bit of that type of haki, he would not get lost so often, but alas…"
"Hey!, I did try, but I'm not good with that, and…" Zoro stopped talking and his gaze moved to stare at something in the distance.
"I don't remember a mountain being there before."
They turned around and saw something giant in the distance that resembled a dark mountain.
"Well, is not like mountains can move. And you are not the most reliable when it comes to remembering landmarks." Chopper(Sanji) said with a smirk.
"No, there was nothing there before. I'm sure of it." The samurai recalled.
"Is not a mountain, whatever it is, is alive and moving closer." Tashigi(Vivi) looked at the creature with care.
"You are right, that thing is alive!, looks like it's moving now." Exclaimed the samurai.
"It's doing something," Zoro observed
The creature got closer and stopped before the lake and started to wriggle its giant body. As it was doing this, small pieces of its body started to detach and flew across the lake.
"Wait a minute, I know what this creature is. This is slime!. I have read about it."
Chopper(Sanji) said with conviction.
"A slime?, is it some sort of mythical monster? like the dragon we saw earlier?" Asked Zoro.
"Something like that. This monster is very unique. It's fond of girls and often assaults them, melting their clothes with its body fluids. " Explained Chopper(Vivi).
"What the hell kind of book were you reading?" Tashigi(Vivi).
"Ah…well…I forgot...it's been a while." He looked away.
"Can I borrow it later?" The honorable samurai requested.
"If you are going to jump in there, you may want to hurry. That slime thing seems to be very poisonous." Zoro warned.
They looked at the lake where a few of the slime pieces had fallen. The water was starting to change color to a purple one and there were a lot of dead fish floating on the surface.
She did not waste more time and removed all her clothes until she only had her underwear.
"What are you doing!, you shameless woman!" Shouted the flustered samurai.
"Wow…black panties. I did not see that coming," commented Tashigi(Vivi) with a smile while checking herself out.
"Me neither…" Chopper(Sanji) stared at her with a new face.
"Why, what does that mean?" Asked the confused Zoro, who was trying hard, not to look at her body.
