[Su Xiaoqi]: So, are you guys still at the Baratie sea restaurant?**
**\[Nami]: Yeah, after leaving Syrup Village I sailed full speed and arrived just this afternoon.
I'm planning to sneak away while Luffy and the others are having dinner.
But I already gave Kaya a heads-up.**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: You told her about the chat group?**
**\[Nami]: Not yet. I just made up an excuse.
I'm planning to tell them about the chat group later.
Even though they're reliable in the original story, that's just the original.
I want to observe them a bit more first.**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Oh ho, didn't expect you to be this clever for once.**
**\[Sakuragi Hanamichi]: Big bro Su, I already told the others about the chat group. Is that okay?**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Hanamichi, if it's just your Sakuragi gang, then it's not a big deal.
Just make sure they keep it secret.
This thing is way too mysterious. If the wrong people find out, you could end up dissected in a lab.
Of course, once you're strong enough to flatten your whole world, then screw it.
If anyone messes with you, just beat the crap out of them.**
**\[Sakuragi Hanamichi]: Got it! Oh, and big bro Su—I've decided I'm going all in on basketball.
This time, I'll totally crush that stupid fox. Haruko is mine!**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: That's the spirit.
First learn the rules of basketball—don't worry about anything else.
I'll send you a skill card soon and teach you how to play fantasy basketball.
I guarantee you'll become the No. 1 in your world.**
**\[Sakuragi Hanamichi]: Hahaha! That stupid fox will be trampled under this genius's feet!**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Chotto matte... @Su Xiaoqi, are you talking about that kind of basketball where guys have rainbow-colored hair?**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Hahaha, yup! Didn't expect you to know that too, Gin-san.**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Of course I do. I love Peach-chan!**
**\[Lu Linglong]: Can you change the line already? We've heard that one a thousand times.**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Jealous, Linglong?
Even though you and Peach-chan are similar colors, I like you more.
Gin-san always wanted to be the little teddy bear on your clothes.**
**\[Lu Linglong]: Ugh, buzz off. Go drool over Nami instead.**
**\[Nami]: ??? You're just selling me out like that?
Keep it up and I'm not bringing you on the next mission.**
**\[Lu Linglong]: Haha, just kidding.
We all know Gin-san's true love is Su Xiaoqi.**
**\[Nami]: I agree.**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Hey hey hey, you two are being too much.
Are you just tossing away my sincerity like trash?**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Let me make this clear—Gin-san might like men,
but that man is definitely NOT me.
Katsura, Takasugi, and Hijikata—those are his true loves.**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Su Xiaoqi, don't go too far.
Don't make me tell Zhu Zhuqing about the *hemorrhoid* on your ○○.**
**\[Zhu Zhuqing]: You saw it?**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Zhuqing-chan, he showed it to me himself during a video chat last night.
Gin-san didn't want to look, really,
but I'm such a helpful and noble person, I powered through for his sake.**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Don't spout nonsense. If I were gonna video chat,
wouldn't I rather call Nami or Linglong? Way more appealing.**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: See? He's not only dragging Gin-san's manhood through the mud,
he's also clearly lusting after Nami and Linglong's bodies.
Zhuqing-chan, I suggest you send him back to his own world right now.**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Damn you white-haired bastard, duel me!**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Bring it on, you evil Saiyan!**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Kamehameha—HAAA!**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Final Flash—HUAAAH!**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Damn, a tie?! As expected of my lifelong rival...**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Curses! To think I, Gintoki, fought to a draw with a mere low-class warrior...
I'll spare you and Earth this time. But I'll be back!**
**\[Sakuragi Hanamichi]: So cool... Coach, I wanna learn that too!**
**\[Lu Linglong]: Zhuqing, maybe you should find someone new.
There's definitely something *off* between those two.**
**\[Nami]: Totally agree.
If you told me there's *nothing* weird going on between them,
I wouldn't believe it even if you beat me.**
---
In the room, Su Xiaoqi felt Zhu Zhuqing's icy stare and immediately sat upright, chuckling awkwardly:
**"Zhuqing, if I said I was just led astray by Gin-san… would you believe me?"**
Zhu Zhuqing snorted coldly:
**"Stay away from him from now on."**
Su Xiaoqi nodded quickly and reopened the chat group.
---
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: *Cough cough*, my brain was just infected by a virus called 'Newbajii'.
Let's get back to tomorrow's mission.**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Oh right right, Gin-san's brain got hit by a 'Kagurajii' virus too.**
**\[Lu Linglong]: I swear, you two are hopeless.**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: @Nami, what's your plan for the Arlong Pirates?**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Nami-chan, Gin-san's suggestion: kill all those rotten fish.
If you can't bring yourself to do it, Gin-san and Su Xiaoqi will do it for you—clean and easy.**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: I agree.
I haven't killed anyone yet, but those beasts aren't even human.
What they've done is unforgivable.**
**\[Nami]: Uh...**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Don't "uh" me.
Let me be clear—I'm not like Luffy.
If your plan is just to beat them and hand them over to the Navy,
then I can't join this mission.
It's not about points. It's about justice.**
**\[Gintoki Sakata]: Nami-chan, Gin-san loves you,
but these bastards oppressed your village for **eight years**,
and even killed Gin-san's *mother-in-law* Bellemere.**
**\[Nami]: Mother-in-law?! Stop spouting nonsense!**
**\[Lu Linglong]: Wait, what is going on between you two now?
Why do you have to kill them all?**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Linglong, let me ask you—
would you ever become friends with someone who killed your mother?**
**\[Lu Linglong]: Of course not.
A mother's killer is an unforgivable enemy.**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Exactly.
Any normal person wouldn't.
But Nami did exactly that.
She not only forgave their past crimes but even *befriended* them.
When I saw that part, I almost vomited.
Seriously, what were you thinking?**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: Don't tell me they were just "following Arlong's orders."
Anyone working under Arlong is already trash.
Their hands are soaked in your people's blood.**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: It's only because you met Luffy that things turned out okay.
What if you hadn't?
What if Arlong escapes the Navy and comes back?
What happens to Cocoyasi Village then?**
**\[Su Xiaoqi]: So let's be blunt:
You're either too naive, or your brain's broken.**
