Chapter 1127

Suddenly, she hears Usopp’s voice and starts heading towards him, but she trips over the bumpy floor and comes face-to-face with a giant hedgehog, which while cute startles her. The hedgehog, in turn, gets startled too and begins to angrily chase her. Nami does find Usopp, but he too is being attacked by a large animal, in this case a giant cat. The hedgehog catches up to Nami as she extends Zeus to zap it, while also falling in the process. Thankfully, Nami lands on the cat as the hedgehog gets zapped, and it falls onto the cat, also zapping it.

Unfortunately, this only enrages the cat, and it starts chasing Nami and Usopp as the two try to get their bearings. Usopp tells Nami that like her, he just woke up in the castle wearing a new outfit, but they both remember they were drinking a special type of alcohol given to them by the Giants on the ship, which they said is powerful enough to cause hallucinations. Eventually, the two reach a dead end, but Usopp becomes convinced that the cat chasing them is a hallucination and everything else is a dream, which makes him confident he will be okay, only for the cat to actually hit him, proving that it is not an illusion. The cat’s attack pushes the two off the edge. After they land, they see the cat has now transformed into a lion. Nami ends up using Usopp as a shield to protect her, much to his displeasure. Thankfully, however, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji finally appear and simultaneously take out the lion with their Gomu Gomu no Elephant Whip, Kokujo O Tatsumaki and Épaule Strike, respectively, and the lion turns back into a cat as it passes out. Luffy says he will not eat the cat because the rabbit they ate was filling enough while Sanji comforts Nami, who claims that Usopp is dead now, which is not true. Luffy says that the other animals in the castle are tasty, they should try hunting them, but Zoro points out that locating the ship and the rest of the crew takes priority. Sanji, meanwhile, states they should exploit the giant bees they encountered, but Nami is left incredulous by how nonchalant everybody is regarding their new situation, once again asking where they are right now.
