Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: Fang Yi's Strategy

After throwing the gourmet cake to Charlotte Linlin, Fang Yi observed her reaction while quietly backing away. Seeing that she didn't seem to intend to stop him, Fang Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He didn't think he could withstand another attack from her again. It was already great luck that he had triggered the dodge skill before.

"Hey... Do you have any more of this kind of cake?" Just as Fang Yi was about to leave, Charlotte Linlin, who had gobbled up the cake in one bite, suddenly turned her head and stared at him.

"No, how could there be a lot of this kind of gourmet food!" Fang Yi shook his head and replied.

"No more?" Charlotte Linlin frowned and said, "Then tell me where you got this. If you tell me, I'll let you go!"

"This..." Fang Yi was immediately stunned. How could he answer that?

"Not willing to say?" Charlotte Linlin glanced at Fang Yi and asked.

Seeing her slightly red eyes, Fang Yi knew things were getting serious. She was having a food - craving episode!

But just as he was about to take out the gourmet cake from his backpack, he suddenly thought that this might be his chance!

So Fang Yi pretended to be in a difficult situation and said, "Actually, this gourmet cake is from Food Island. There are many more such foods there! But..."

"But what?" Charlotte Linlin looked at Fang Yi and asked.

"But I really don't know how to get there. I heard that only the captains of powerful pirates will receive an invitation! I only went there once with our captain!" Fang Yi pretended to be embarrassed and said, "But your Captain Rocks is so powerful. He must have received an invitation. Maybe he's even been there. You can just ask him!"

Sure enough, after hearing Fang Yi's words, Charlotte Linlin was a bit skeptical.

Normally, she wouldn't have fallen for such a simple ruse. But now, with her brain on the fritz and her body taking over, her craving for the gourmet cake had overshadowed everything else.

"If you don't believe me, I can go with you to find your captain! If I'm lying... you can kill me at any time, right?" Fang Yi shrugged and said.

"Good. If you deceive me... I'll make you know what it means to live in hell!" Charlotte Linlin with red eyes looked extremely terrifying, but Fang Yi knew that the more this was the case, the less he should be afraid of her.

"Of course!" Fang Yi replied confidently.

So Charlotte Linlin didn't give Fang Yi a chance to resist. She grabbed the back of his neck and carried him towards the center of the battlefield.

Although Fang Yi resisted and said it was too embarrassing, Charlotte Linlin simply ignored him.

Fortunately, the system informed him that he had successfully checked in on Charlotte Linlin, which gave him a little consolation.

"Boom!"

Charlotte Linlin took a leap, carrying Fang Yi across the battlefield and directly reaching the very center of it.

Roger, Garp, and Cross, who were in the middle of a fight, all stopped and stared in surprise at the two who had suddenly appeared.

"Gahaha... Linlin! You've come just in time. Let's get rid of these guys together!" When Rocks saw Charlotte Linlin, he burst into a delighted laugh. After all, she was one of his people.

But Roger's face turned rather grim. Not only did the enemy now have an additional powerful ally, but Fang Yi had been captured.

"Hey... Let Fang Yi go! He's my companion!" Roger shouted at Charlotte Linlin.

Seeing that Roger was about to jump into action, Fang Yi quickly yelled, "Hold on, hold on... Captain, do you remember the delicious cake we bought on the Food Island last time? The one you said was really tasty!"

"Huh?" Roger was taken aback. He couldn't understand why Fang Yi had suddenly brought this up. But just thinking about the delicious cake from last time, even though he knew it wasn't the right moment, Roger still swallowed hard and said, "Didn't you say you'd eaten them all last time? Did you make some more?"

As soon as he heard Roger's words, Fang Yi knew things were going bad.

Previously, to explain the origin of the cakes, Fang Yi had told them that he'd made them. However, the ingredients were very hard to come by, so he hadn't made many. He never expected Roger to bring this up at this moment.

"Kid... So it was you who made those cakes!" Charlotte Linlin, with her eyes red, stared directly at Fang Yi, sending a chill down his spine.

Rocks and Garp were completely confused, having no idea what was going on.

Right then, Fang Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly inside. He knew Roger was terrible at scheming. If Rayleigh were here, he would surely have played along.

Originally, he'd planned to deflect the trouble and sow discord between Rocks and Charlotte Linlin. Then, at a crucial moment, he'd place the cake on Rocks, mark Rocks somehow, and let the food - crazed Charlotte Linlin attack him.

But unexpectedly, Roger's single sentence had ruined the plan.

By now, he had no better option but to forcefully attempt it.

So Fang Yi gritted his teeth, reached into his bosom, took out a piece of the delicious cake from his backpack, and threw it directly at Rocks, shouting loudly, "Captain Rocks, this is the last piece of the delicious cake. I'll give it to you!"

Sure enough, his actions immediately caught everyone's attention. Charlotte Linlin's eyes lit up, and she stared directly at the delicious cake, then rushed forward.

Rocks was completely bewildered. Seeing Fang Yi throw something at him and then start running away, he thought it was something like a bomb. So without hesitation, he slashed the delicious cake into pieces with his sword.

"The cake... My cake..." Having already had red eyes, Charlotte Linlin was now completely out of control after seeing the delicious cake destroyed. Dripping with saliva, she stared directly at Rocks.

"Linlin, don't be played by a little kid. After the battle is over, I'll get you whatever cake you want!" Seeing Charlotte Linlin's state, Captain Rocks said in a deep voice.

"Captain! Leave this to you. That gourmet cake just now was truly the last one. You know how difficult it is to obtain the raw materials. Anyway, I can't make any more. That woman will go crazy if she can't get the food she wants. Take care of yourself! I'm outta here!" After successfully causing a commotion, Fang Yi shouted to Roger while running away quickly. In a short while, he disappeared on the chaotic battlefield.

"Huh?" Roger was completely dumbfounded because at this moment, Charlotte Linlin really seemed to have the intention to attack Captain Rocks.

After exchanging a glance with Garp, the two decided to stand by for the time being. After all, Charlotte Linlin's state was very strange. If they stepped forward, it would be bad if they were targeted by her.

"Cake... Gourmet cake..." At this moment, Charlotte Linlin's mind was full of cakes, especially the scene where Captain Rocks destroyed the cake with his last sword, which kept replaying in her mind and made her a little crazy.

"Linlin..." Captain Rocks also noticed something was wrong. He put away his smile and shouted at Charlotte Linlin in a deep voice, "Stop joking with me..."

Hearing Captain Rocks' words, Charlotte Linlin, who was on the verge of losing control, actually froze in place, and even a look of fear appeared on her face.

However, Fang Yi didn't see this scene, otherwise he would definitely be greatly surprised.

You know, she is one of the future Four Emperors, one of the strongest on the top of the sea. It's incredible that she would be a little scared because of someone's words.

However, soon, the smell and residues of the cake on the ground made her start to lose her mind again. And it seemed that because of her own fear, she felt a bit ashamed. So Charlotte Linlin actually directly raised the big knife in her hand and slashed at Captain Rocks.

"Boom~~~"

Captain Rocks' long sword blocked Charlotte Linlin's attack, but his face became quite ugly.

"Linlin... It seems that you've made your choice! Then... Don't blame me!" After saying that, Captain Rocks kicked the big knife out of Charlotte Linlin's hand with one foot, and then a sword slash directly hit her chest.

"Boom~~~!!"

Charlotte Linlin was sent flying by Captain Rocks' strike and fell to the ground, motionless.

Although Charlotte Linlin was in a state of chaotic frenzy at this moment, the fact that Captain Rocks could send her flying with one move still showed his strength.

"Tsk tsk tsk... No wonder he's the legendary Captain Rocks! In his hands, the future Big Mom of the Four Emperors is like a child... No, Charlotte Linlin isn't at her peak yet, but this is still terrifying!" Fang Yi, who had run away, had found a high - point and was watching the central battlefield from afar.

Now the whole area was in a mess. The members of the pirate alliance, which had the largest number, were fighting with the navy. But when they met the members of the Rocks Pirates, they would join hands to fight against them.

The Roger Pirates had the fewest members, so they all targeted the cadres or leaders of the Rocks Pirates.

Rayleigh faced off against Wang Zhi. The two were evenly matched, but Fang Yi could tell that Rayleigh hadn't used his full strength yet.

Jabba and Yamon, Fang Yi's two teachers, were jointly fighting John. Despite their constant bickering, even during the battle, they coordinated quite well and had completely suppressed the opponent.

Glancing at the dilapidated city area, Fang Yi realized that if the battle continued like this, this luxurious Celestial Dragons' resort would probably turn into ruins.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!..." In the center of the battlefield, Roger and Garp joined forces again to fight against Rocks. The aftermath of the battle began to spread. Fang Yi knew that they were getting serious.

"No... It's getting too dangerous to stay here!" After looking around, Fang Yi decided to retreat. Otherwise, it would be bad if he was affected by the aftermath of Roger's battle.

But at this moment, he noticed that Charlotte Linlin, who had been sent flying by Rocks with a single sword strike earlier, was nowhere to be seen.

Fearing being targeted by her, Fang Yi decided to flee far away. Otherwise, if he was caught by her again, it would be truly miserable.
