"While this method can temporarily slow down their invasion of the village, it doesn't truly solve the problem."
"Lady Tsunade said."
"Yes, after all, they have more people and more strength."
"Moving these rubble stones would be effortless; it would only delay them a little, but it wouldn't stop them from invading the village."
"Then, on this slope, install a large iron gate overnight. Then close the large iron gate tightly. If they can't get over this large iron gate, they won't be able to invade the village."
"That's what Kabuto Yakushi said."
"It's already this late, where are they going to get that big iron gate?"
"And it must be one of those very sturdy 2.7 iron gates. If it were just an ordinary iron gate, those pirates would have cut it down and it wouldn't have served any purpose at all."
"So this method won't work either."
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"If this won't work and that won't work, what better solution will Usopp come up with?"
Orochimaru said.
Chapter 686 Running around, what's there to observe?
"Perhaps Usopp in the video will bring us an unexpected surprise."
Uzumaki Naruto said.
In the video footage, the person appeared uncomfortable and ran up the slope, looking around. Then, they ran to the middle of the slope and looked around again.
"I think this guy is acting like a monkey right now."
Naruto Uzumaki said, looking at Usopp's actions on the screen.
"I also think so."
Jiraiya-sama said.
"What on earth is this guy doing?"
"Running around like that, what's there to observe?"
"Isn't it just a big slope like 08?"
Naruto Uzumaki continued.
"He must be surveying the terrain. Didn't he say he wanted to find a way to defeat those pirates without fighting?"
"Lady Tsunade said."
"Isn't it necessary to be quiet when trying to find a solution? He just said himself that he wanted Nami to stop talking and to be quiet."
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"They must be trying to observe the terrain first before they can come up with a better solution."
"Lady Tsunade said."
"I wonder what kind of terrible idea he'll come up with?"
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"I doubt I can come up with any good solutions."
Jiraiya said.
"Don't worry, maybe this guy can actually come up with a good idea."
"Lady Tsunade said."
Hopefully, we can come up with a foolproof plan.
Orochimaru said.
"It's okay if you can't think of a good solution."
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"why?"
Orochimaru asked.
"Is that even a question? With Luffy and Roronoa Zoro here, even if a powerful enemy appears, they would definitely not be a match for the two of them."
Naruto Uzumaki replied.
"Yes, as long as these two guys are here guarding, those pirates are simply too weak to be defeated."
"Lady Tsunade said."
"Wouldn't it be much easier for Luffy and Roronoa Zoro if they could get that long-nosed gentleman to come up with a better solution?"
Jiraiya-sama said.
"Of course, but that long-nosed guy is all talk and no action. Can he really come up with any good ideas?"
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"Let's wait patiently and trust that this long-nosed guy won't let us down."
Orochimaru said.
In the video footage, the long-nosed guy observed the terrain for a while, then suddenly stopped, a smug smile spreading across his face.
"What's wrong? Have you thought of a solution?"
"That's what Miss Nami asked in the picture."
"Of course. As long as I'm here, those pirates won't be able to invade our village. I'm sure I can come up with a good solution."
The long-nosed guy nodded 637 very proudly.
"Tell me quickly, what great idea have you come up with?"
"I can stop those pirates from attacking the village with just one soldier."
Luffy asked impatiently.
"Please wait here for me a moment."
At that moment, Usopp took a deep breath and then spoke to Luffy.
What exactly are you planning to do?
"If you really think of a good idea, feel free to share it with everyone."
"If you need our help, we might be able to assist you."
Luffy was eager to know what brilliant idea this long-nosed guy had come up with.
Chapter 687 What else could one think of besides food? What a foodie!
"Alright then, since what you say makes sense, I'll listen to you. The solution I've come up with is to fetch a bucket of oil. What we need to protect here is this slope."
"As long as we prevent those pirates from climbing this slope, our mission will be considered a success."
The long-nosed guy stopped and turned around to say to Luffy.
"We all understand this principle, didn't you say so?"
"This slope is the only way to get into the village."
“As long as we hold this slope, those pirates will naturally have no way to invade the village. But you just said you wanted to get a barrel of oil. What exactly do you want to do with it?”
"Could it be that it has a lot to do with holding onto this slope?"
"You're not going to start cooking here, are you?"
"I know that fighting those pirates will take a lot of energy, and of course I'll get hungry, but there's no need to eat and stay here."
"After all, they're going to invade the village tomorrow. If we defeat them here tomorrow, we can go back to the village restaurant and have a good meal, right?"
"There's no need to cook here."
"We ate a lot tonight, and it's only one night, so it won't take too much of our energy, and we won't be that hungry."
"So you don't need to think so thoroughly."
Luffy completely misunderstood what the long-nosed guy meant. He thought the long-nosed guy went back to the village to get a bucket of oil so he could cook for them here.
"Hahaha, what else can Luffy think about besides food? What a glutton."
Naruto Uzumaki looked at Luffy on the screen and said with a grin.
"This guy just had a big meal tonight, I bet he hasn't even finished digesting his food yet."
"Now he's thinking about food again. What a guy who can eat and sleep so much."
"That's what Choza Akimichi said."
"I reckon the guy with the long nose said he was going back to get a bucket of oil, not to set up a stove here and cook for them. He must have some other purpose."
"Luffy has definitely misunderstood Usopp's meaning."
Xiao Nan said.
"Maybe you're right. Things are already so tense right now, how could he possibly have the mind to cook for Luffy and the others?"
"That's definitely not the reason, but what could his purpose be in bringing a barrel of oil?"
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"Could it be that he wants to take this barrel of oil and pour it all down this slope so that the children can't get up there either?"
"Because the slope becomes very slippery after being covered in oil, the pirates simply cannot climb up."
Xiao Nan suddenly thought of something.
"Really? Now that you mention it, it makes a lot of sense."
"If that's how the long-nosed guy came up with the idea, then maybe this method can actually work."
"It's just a bit wasteful. How much oil would it take to make this slope slippery?"
Uzumaki Naruto said.
"If it's a small bucket, maybe ten buckets will be needed, but if it's a large wooden bucket, one bucket will be enough."
