One Piece: Difficult Choices - Chapter 6

Chapter 6 Difficult Choices
“OK.”
Vivian nodded immediately, then covered his injured part with his hand, and stepped aside obediently.
After a while, after Tashigi entered the cabin, Vivian pinpointed the time, and then crept in again.
…
[You choose option 3, get reward: Strength +1]
Feeling the slight soreness from the muscles all over his body, Vivian walked through the corner of the cabin, just sticking out half of his head, when he saw a sudden explosion from the boiler room at the end of the front, and the heat wave suddenly engulfed him. Tashigi at the door was swallowed in at once.
“Dead.. dead.. dead?!”
Is this dead?
Subconsciously swallowing the saliva in his mouth again, looking at the aisle that was burning in an instant, Vivian couldn’t help but feel scared for a while.
If I had to choose the second option and come in behind Tashigi’s butt, I’m afraid I’d already been affected by the explosion just now, right?
But that doesn’t seem to be the point now.
You must know that even though Tashigi’s role in the original book is not that important, she is still one of the main supporting roles. Even if she is affected by the butterfly effect she has passed over, she will not die so hastily, right?
And in the gap between his frowns, Tashigi, who had just been swallowed up by the flames, emerged from the sea of fire in a disgraceful manner, and slashed at the wooden wall beside him.
boom–!
A large piece of wood shattered into pieces, and a young woman dressed in an old woman’s costume emerged from the rubble. It was the “grandmother” who tricked Vivian into the boat with a bowl of fried rice a few days ago.
“Kenitz Nidia, you have been surrounded by the navy, surrender now!” Tashigi said righteously.
“Damn Navy..”
A look of unhappiness flashed on Nidia’s face when she heard the words, then she took out two bombs from her clothes and ignited the leads, her eyes full of madness and looked at Tashigi: “Today, no one can survive and leave this ship alive!!”
the other side.
[Option 1: Rush up to help Tashigi defeat the enemy. (Completion reward: a random Logia devil fruit)]
[Option 2: Make a sound to attract the attention of the female pirate. (Completion Rewards: Primary Observation Haki)]
[Option 3: Go to the utility room alone to save people. (Completion reward: random plane sword skill x1)]
[Option 4: Hide in the jewel box at the entrance of the cabin and wait for the navy rescue on the deck. (Completion reward: random basic attribute +1)]
Looking at the four options that appeared in front of him, Vivian, who reflexively wanted to choose the last option, was suddenly stunned on the spot.
There was no reason for it, but in the front of the corridor, the fire had already spread to the utility room where the civilians were being held.
Glancing at the door bolt tightly wrapped by the iron chain, Vivian even faintly heard some cries coming from inside.
“what do I do?”
Vivian, who had already made up his mind to choose the last option two days ago, suddenly became a little hesitant.
Pick 4, there is no doubt that he will not encounter any danger. The thermal insulation box used by the one-eyed pirate to store jewelry obviously allowed him to escape the fate of being burned alive, and lasted until the pirates on the deck were dealt with by Smoker and his gang, and then came to put out the fire people.
But this also means that other civilians locked in the utility room will be burned alive by the fire.
“It’s just a bunch of unrelated people…”
“What does their life and death have to do with me?”
He muttered softly to himself.
What I guessed just now, after choosing the wrong option,
The lingering fear that would be affected by the explosion resurfaced from the depths of my heart.
Seeing that the fire was getting closer and closer, Tashigi and Nidia had disappeared from the stern of the boat. Vivian immediately raised his hand and slapped himself hard, and then put the lid down of uncovered jewelry box, and he rushed to the one-eyed pirate bedroom directly opposite.
“cough!”
First, he picked up the bucket and showered it on his body, and then covered his mouth and nose with the wet rag. Vivian quickly rummaged through the room to find the key, and then plunged into the sea of fire again.
[You selected option 3]
[Start the follow-up mission]
[Task content: Lead all civilians in the cabin to escape successfully]
Resisting the hot touch from the chain, Vivian calmly opened the door.
As soon as they entered, they saw a group of civilians lying on the floor beside the door and coughing wildly. Obviously, the thick smoke filled the room made them almost faint.
“Wake up, wake up soon!”
Vivian stepped forward and lifted the two men at the door from the ground, dragging them out of the door while shouting to everyone in the house: “If you don’t want to die, cheer me up!”
However, his voice just fell, and with a crisp sound of “Zila”, the large pieces of wood above his head collapsed one after another without warning, and slammed onto Vivian’s head.
A strong sense of dizziness struck his mind instantly.
At the same time, the raging flames also blocked all the doors behind him, and began to pour into the room at a very fast speed along the door frame.
Vivian, whose eyes were a little blurry, turned his head to look at the scene behind him.
“Knew it..”
Is this the danger of not choosing the last option?
He couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.
But even so, I will never give up so easily.
Wiping the blood dripping from his forehead, Vivian struggled to get up from the ground, then walked to the shelf in the utility room, took out a hammer from a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron, and then riveted with all his strength, and slammed heavily on the inner wall.
I don’t know if the two or three strength attributes I have acquired these days have played a role at this moment. With just one hammer, there are some cracks on the wooden wall.
The scorching heat wave continued to invade from behind, stinging every civilian who was crying and coughing.
However, Vivian didn’t realize it, and was still swinging the hammer to himself, trying to lead the innocent people in the room to escape from this desperate situation.
boom-!
Bang-bang-!
One hammer, two hammers…
The frequency is getting faster and faster.
Finally, when the flames completely ignited the clothes on Vivian’s back, a large amount of sea water suddenly poured in from the hole he smashed, and washed over the bodies of every citizen curled up on the ground.
“ended..”
Feeling the coolness coming from his face, Vivian let go of the hammer that was tightly clenched in his hand, and lay back on his back in relief.
“Grumpy gurgle…”
