Zoro watched in stunned silence.
He instinctively tried to retreat, but it was too late.
A fourth-generation mechanical soldier grabbed him with overwhelming strength.
Pain surged through his muscles and bones, but he endured silently, gritting his teeth.
Sanji immediately charged towards Zoro.
His legs aflame, Sanji unleashed a powerful kick, striking the robot's joint.
The robot released Zoro.
Zoro gasped, a rush of air filling his lungs.
"These soldiers are incredibly strong! We're outmatched!"
Sanji nodded. "We need to find an opening and escape, or we'll be killed."
Zoro agreed. "Luffy's probably far ahead. We just need to break through."
They moved swiftly, aiming for a less densely packed area of robots.
"Ittōryū Iai: Shishi Sonson!"
Their combined attack struck a robot's legs, causing it to fall with a resounding crash.
"Let's go!" Sanji urged, worried Zoro might get lost in the blizzard.
But then, a figure emerged from the snowstorm—a person in luxurious velvet clothing, approaching slowly.
His sharp eyes resembled a hawk's. It was Ryuya, or rather, King Sterry.
"Who are you?!" Sanji called out.
A chill ran down Zoro's spine. He sensed immense, familiar power emanating from Ryuya.
"Ignore him. If he stops us, we fight," Zoro said.
Sanji nodded, his legs aflame as he charged.
"Such insignificant skills. Dare you display them before a master?" Ryuya said.
He slowly clenched his fist, a faint white aura surrounding him.
"Eight Gates Formation, Death Gate—Open!"
With a powerful punch, Ryuya unleashed an air cannon that tore through the air with a deafening roar.
Zoro and Sanji's eyes widened. It was a casual attack, but the sheer power sent alarm bells ringing.
"Zoro! Get out of the way!" Sanji shouted.
Zoro reacted instantly, diving to safety. The air cannon carved a massive semi-circular crater into the ground, seemingly absorbing everything in its path.
It continued its trajectory, finally impacting the sea with a devastating explosion, creating a massive crater that the sea struggled to fill.
Seeing the immense power, Zoro addressed Ryuya/King Sterry. "Who are you?"
"I am King Sterry, King of Rila Kingdom," Ryuya replied, disappearing instantly.
He reappeared behind Sanji, striking his neck with a swift hand strike.
Sanji collapsed, unconscious, easily lifted by a robot.
Ryuya turned to Zoro.
He appeared behind Zoro with blinding speed.
Even anticipating the attack, Zoro was helpless against Ryuya's overwhelming speed.
Bang! Ryuya struck Zoro's neck. Zoro fell unconscious.
Ryuya turned, his gaze fixed on the distance.
"Luffy, let's see if the protagonist can overcome this overwhelming power."
He took Zoro and Sanji back to the palace prison.
Meanwhile, Luffy, after a grueling journey, finally reached the only doctor's office in Drum Kingdom.
"Doctor, please! Save my friend!"
Luffy, frostbitten and exhausted, collapsed as he entered the room, his body completely relaxed after carrying Usopp.
Chopper, studying Rumble Balls, was completely stunned…
