wanted to jump, but Luffy had already thrown out his arms and pulled the two of them with a strong jerk.The straw hat boy skilfully caught the two of them.
Laughing, Anna hit the floor again.
“If we do it now, there will be meat to eat today! ", called Sanji.
“Do you want to eat it? ", Tasha pointed disgustedly at the monster," look what's dripping down there! "
“Nobody's forcing you! ", Zorro growled at her. He drew his swords.
“He's kind of mad! ", Chopper translated, the growling of the huge dog, which made Daro look like nothing.
"Wouldn't you be the same if you were locked up here!" ", Mia stared steadily at the animal.
It stopped. The three heads looked at each other one by one and made loud noises.
The less strong took a cautious step backwards.
Against this, the dog took a few steps forward. Daro withdrew, still growling loudly, and stood protectively in front of Anna. Usopp saw this as an opportunity to hide behind Daro, also imperceptibly.
They let the animal come up.And it was getting closer, threateningly close.
Even those who had already drawn their weapons and were ready to fight took a step back.
"Mia, it would be better if you didn't stop there! ", Charlie admonished her," and it would be even better if you took out your gun slowly! "
,,What for? ", she held out her hand. She could feel the warm, moist breath the dog was exhaling from its nose. She almost touched the animal's nose.
“He'll bite your fingers off! ", she heard Nami calling.
,,May be! ", she touched the wet slimy nose of the middle head. Slowly she pulled her back.
There was great tension. You could literally feel the anger of this animal. She crushed them. The animal's looks pierced each one and made him hold his breath. Really cramp up.
Why was it so angry? Hardly anyone dared to speak.
To everyone's amazement, Mia took another step, past the first snout, which she didn't stop, but followed with her eyes.“What is she doing stupid? ", Zorro wanted to know. Something had slipped past him.
,,Wait, I'll help you! ", called Chopper, he slowly crept past the muzzle.
All three heads now turned to the two of them, who were carefully examining the monster's right front paw.
,, Oh holy ...! "Mia swore when she saw something about her.
“Doesn't matter what the cattle have, I finally want to eat meat! ", Luffy shouted, who didn't seem to mind the whole thing," I would only need a minute to kill him! "
"You want to eat a dog? ", Mia looked at him indignantly," a dog, a poor defenseless dog that did nothing to you! "(Now the vegetarian is waking up in me ...)
“He's definitely doing something else! "Usopp was convinced," look how he looks, he is really snappy! "
"If you were to look at this instead of paying attention to his face, you might understand why this is him," Mia went straight to Usopp, grabbed him by the collar and dragged him with her, seconds later you could hear him too softly mumbling something to himself.“Can we finally get started now? "Jack wanted to know impatiently.
,,Hardly likely! ", Zorro put his swords away," probably nothing will come of the meat inlay at dinner! "
“You can't do that! "Luffy howled.
Against Mia came out from under the animal, it looked confused by now, he was also slightly irritated.
,, Try to lie down! ", Mia whispered carefully in his ear. He swayed suspiciously to the side. The first thing he did was buckle his left legs, then lay his legs stretched out on the floor.
,,Oh my God! ", now everyone understood what was meant.
A thick barbed wire had been wrapped around the animal's front paw. It was rusty, cut deep into the skin, and it was bleeding. The whole wound was crusted over. The whole thing seemed to be an old construction, yet fresh blood was running. Those weren't the only injuries to be found, there were wounds everywhere, most of them not even healed properly.The so-called beast suffered agonies from hell.
"I think I'm going to be sick!"
"I'm already sick!"
,, And what do you want to eat? ", Mia looked at Luffy suspiciously.
“I didn't know! ", he said, played offended.
,, Daro come here! "Even before Usopp could hold the dog, it was with his mistress.
“This is Daro, a huge dog just like you! ", she introduced him to the heads that were sniffing the dog suspiciously. Daro let it go.
“If the little moose cuts the wire right now, try to endure it, it might hurt a little more than the whole thing together, but after that it will only get better! ", she explained to the monster, as if he were a completely normal person and not a three-headed monster.
“Do you trust us! ", she looked at the dog insistently, tried not to blink and to keep calm, a few minutes passed while the animal just stared at Mia, during which you couldn't see what he was thinking.Then he closed his eyes and let his heavy heads sink completely to the floor.
Mia stroked his huge snouts, then turned to Chopper, who had been interested to see:
"Shall I help you or do you remove the barbed wire by yourself!"
,,I help him! ", Charlie stepped forward quickly," but please keep him calm! "
“As if he could still aim from the pain! ", Mia sat cross-legged in front of the animal, still laying her hand on it.
“I could have bet it would tear you apart when you went near it! "Tasha walked slowly to her, without taking her eyes off the animal, where she didn't know which of the three heads to watch out for.
“This is a dog that can sense what you feel for him. You're all just looking for food! "
"What's wrong with that, for days we've only been nourishing ourselves on ... everything, the things are sometimes so disgusting that you wonder why you are them!" ", Usopp said bravely, earning an angry look from Sanji," and of course they taste delicious!"he said quickly as he wiped back in front of the cook.
