The drunk man with a chestnut head and a ferocious face stood there motionless for a long time.
"Hey..." Usopp leaned forward and poked lightly with his finger, and the other party slowly fell towards him, "Wow!"
Chopper immediately ran over to check, with a solemn expression on his face, he raised his head and shouted: "Hurry up and open the window for ventilation, tidy up the bed and let him lie down -"
"I'm going to get water," Robin said.
"Ah, I'll help too!" Although Nami couldn't figure out the situation, "I'll open the window!" But since the ship's doctor has spoken, just listen.
Usopp and Chopper carefully moved the chestnut-headed drunkard to the bed and lay down. Chopper took a basin of water from Robin and put a wet towel on the chestnut-headed drunkard's forehead...
After a while of scrambling, the drunkard with chestnut head was finally able to stabilize his condition, but he still fell asleep.
Usopp wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Really! Why should we help this person who threatens us as soon as we meet?"
Nami noticed, however, that Robin and a mecha palm floating in the air were flipping through a book placed on a wooden box in the corner of the room.
She curiously leaned over to take a look, ""North Sea Folktales: The Great Liar Noland"? Is this drunken chestnut head from Beihai?"
After briefly flipping through the book, Nami saw such a ridiculous story: About four hundred years ago in the North Sea, an explorer named Mont Blanc Noland claimed to have discovered an island full of gold along the Grand Line.
, the king believed his words and led two thousand soldiers to search across the Grand Line, but no gold was found at all. He was furious and sentenced Noland to death. Noland lied before he died, saying that maybe all the gold had sunk.
Into the bottom of the sea...
"...This is a disease that people who often dive will get, but normally it is not a long-term disease at all." Later, Chopper was explaining to Usopp, "This person must have been diving randomly every day.
Make your body look like this..."
Robin pointed to the hairstyle of "Mont Blanc Noland" in the picture in the storybook.
"Lizitou..." Nami turned around and said in surprise, "Could this drunkard be the descendant of Noland? It's so pitiful that our ancestors were made up into such a story and spread as a joke...
"
Robin leaned against the door, looked at the sea outside the house, and said calmly: "If I had to guess, he probably wanted to prove his ancestor's last words, 'The gold sank to the bottom of the sea,' so he did what Chopper said, regardless of his physical condition.
Just dive blindly every day to find the truth.”
Usopp was quite shocked and murmured: "This is like a duel with our ancestors from four hundred years ago! It's so romantic..."
"B.I.B"'s narrow eyes shimmered, and he glanced at the small bed. At some point, the chestnut-headed drunkard lying flat on the bed opened his eyes. But he did not move, just listening to the conversation of these people.
, looking at the ceiling in silence.
After a while, a dark helmet suddenly appeared in the air, "Luffy and the others are coming."
…
The three of them walked all the way through the woods to the south. Zoro dragged a wild wolf, and Sanji kicked a wild boar as a ball. The two were unhappy with each other, as if they were competing to see who had the bigger prey.
Luffy was the only one, holding a colorful strange bird with a strange head position, laughing non-stop.
Usopp asked in surprise: "Are you three injured?"
Luffy smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. Sanji, I'm hungry!"
Robin pointed to the room and said, "You may have something you want to know..."
She and "B.I.B" walked out of the house and sat down at the small wooden table outside the house. However, not long after they sat down, Sanji's roar came from the house behind, so loud that it almost lifted the roof off:
"You said you killed a lovely mermaid?!!!!"
It is completely conceivable that Sanji's heartbroken and angry reaction after hearing this... Robin shook his head, walked to the shore alone, and moved his hands.
Gululu...
On the seabed in the surrounding area, clusters of petals condensed into dozens of identical sea beasts. Each sea beast's body seemed to be blossoming and bearing fruit, and dozens or hundreds of Robin's dark green eyes appeared, scanning from various angles.
The situation everywhere on the seabed... These additional visions seemed to bring a 360° panoramic view in front of Robin's eyes, giving him an overview of the entire seabed scenery...
Until the sunset began to rise and gradually became dusk, the waves on the beach rose, and three huge sea carps emerged from the water holding two golden statues similar in shape to the bird Luffy caught in the afternoon.
Puff, Robin might have taken action with "B.I.B" and summoned a row of flowery arms to carry the two golden birds ashore.
Three huge sea carp also scattered into a ball of petals and drifted away on the sea.
"Sorry, I only found these two golden statues in the surrounding seabed." When Robin returned to the house, chestnut-headed Brown Kulik was covering his eyes, and water kept dripping between his fingers.
The older man burst into tears and gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "It's all my fault. Because she is a mermaid, she is too careless. She actually let such a young child go to the bottom of the sea to look for gold for me. Just for my own ridiculous obsession, she was so careless.
No news for many years..."
Usopp was speechless. He wanted to refute, how could it be a ridiculous obsession? It was clearly a duel between two men separated by four hundred years!
But...looking at Uncle Montblanc who blamed himself and regretted himself, Usopp was speechless.
Seeing the two more golden bird statues brought back by Robin, Montblanc was saddened by the sight. He picked up the bottle of wine and drank it. When he was drunk, he kicked over his own box, and two statues of golden birds tumbled out of it.
A similar golden bird statue that Bin brought back.
"If I can find that child," Montblanc stared and said drunkenly, "I would rather not find some golden land! Damn it..."
"Of course!" Sanji said angrily, "You actually let the beautiful mermaid lady be killed, you bastard..."
Robin said: "Perhaps it has been eaten by a passing sea beast and bitten into bloody pieces..."
"Ah! Damn it!" Sanji became even more sad and angry, burning with rage. If Luffy and Zoro hadn't been dragging him, he would have wanted to be stepped on by Mont Blanc several times. Usopp exclaimed in shock: "Robin! Why do you say that?"
Terrible words!"
"Mermaids can talk to sea creatures..." A dark helmet suddenly appeared in the air. "There may be confused mermaids who are accidentally swallowed by sea beasts, but I have never heard of mermaids actually being eaten by sea beasts. And the mermaid's
The speed is the fastest among all sea creatures. As long as the little mermaid is still alive, there is no reason why she has not come back once in so many years to explain the situation to you. But you said that you have searched the nearby waters countless times over the years, and you have never seen her return.
That little mermaid didn’t find even a single useful clue?』
Montblanc seemed to have no energy to be surprised by the ghost that suddenly appeared in the air. He just drank wine and asked flatly: "What on earth do you want to say?"
"It seems that you have guessed it yourself." "B.I.B" said, "Excluding all other possibilities, the remaining one, no matter how incredible, is the only answer that can be pointed to..."
Its right arm armor covered with red flame lines also condensed in the air, and it held the index finger of its right hand and pointed upward.
"She went to heaven."
As Montblanc, Luffy and others watched, "B.I.B" made the final decision.
"..." Montblanc did not show too much shock. Obviously he had already guessed this possibility. "Even if this is true, what next? Do you also believe that the so-called 'empty island' is real?"
Of?"
Robin said: "Of course it exists. Because we have been there before."
"What?!"
Luffy and others were shocked, Robin slowly explained: "Like the sea here, with the sky as the ocean, there are also many different sky islands. The one I went to was a very small sky island... and here
It’s not the same place in the sky.”
Everyone couldn't help but follow Robin's fingers and looked up together - well, they could only see the ceiling.
"Could it be Biluka?" Robin asked himself.
After all, I had just seen the information that the remaining ancient weapon Pluto was in the Sky Island Biluka in the tomb in Alabasta... I turned around and really came across the opportunity to go to the Sky Island. Robin couldn't help but think about it.
"B.I.B" is also associated with it, but it is associated with another thing.
It looked at Luffy who was happily discussing how to get to the unknown sky island above them... The reason why it guessed that the mermaid had mistakenly landed on the sky island was partly because it was just as it said; but the other part was
, also because of Luffy.
After all, Luffy's "luck" is really evil.
Especially, when Luffy and Blackbeard, the two "positive and negative" protagonists collide, the fate here becomes particularly evil.
The first time these two people met together, the Sekikumo and the soaring sea currents of Gaya Island happened to appear on the same day! It was truly a fateful meeting, as if they were just waiting for Luffy to come and ride the waves on that day...
…
The second time these two people met together, it was a war on top of each other! Originally, it was impossible for Luffy to break into the big prison with his strength. However, it was because of the involvement of the war on top of the next door that Luffy successfully entered.
I went back and forth in a big prison...
Now, Luffy is here; he happened to hear about a missing little mermaid... and Luffy is very likely to go to the Sky Island...
"B.I.B" couldn't help but think that the little mermaid might have ended up on the empty island by chance.
"Joyboy"? Roger, Shanks, Rayleigh, is this the guy you are waiting for... "B.I.B" looked at Luffy and others as the discussion entered the dispute stage.
It turned out that it was Montblanc who told the information about the soaring sea currents. Luffy was starry-eyed and very interested when he heard it. However, he was severely resisted by his companions - Usopp angrily said: "The Merry has passed through this period of time."
I've been covered in wounds from sailing! You can't hit the soaring current just because you want excitement!" Nami also hugged Chopper with tears, "And that kind of thing sounds very dangerous. If something goes wrong, everyone will
They are all dead..."
Luffy's face was full of reluctance.
But to Robin and even "B.I.B"'s surprise, Luffy nodded and gave up even though he was reluctant. He smiled and said: "Although it is more handsome to ride on the sky current, you are more important!"
Nami and others burst into tears because this idiot could say such touching words.
Sanji raised his foot and stepped on Luffy's face, "Don't say such disgusting words! Really... Anyway, we should stick to the original plan and leave the matter of going to the Sky Island to me! Didn't Sister Robin find two statues?
A golden statue? It should be enough to be used as a vehicle to carry us to the sky to find the empty island..." Zoro touched his chin and said to himself: "The rest of us can enter Xiaolu's castle, but what about the Merry ship?
?”
Everyone looked at Robin, who nodded and said: "The Mellie is not a large ship, so it should be able to be put into the castle together."
"Okay!!" Luffy clenched his fists and said excitedly, "In that case, let's take Merry with us - go to Sky Island!!!"
"..." Looking at these pirates, Montblanc placed the empty wine bottle on the table and kicked his two golden bird statues towards Luffy and the others, "Go to heaven... Count me in."
One, okay?"
His eyes seemed to have never been drunk before, full of sobriety and determination, "I will not be willing to die until I find that kid Kemi."
What did you say Kai? "B.I.B" was stunned.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Wow! The Meili really went in!"
Usopp was dumbfounded as he looked at the deserted seaside. Sanji kicked his butt from behind and was kicked into the phone bug castle, "Stop talking nonsense."
Sanji picked up the little green and looked at the four golden bird statues lined up on the grass in front of him. With a flick of his finger, they immediately deformed and gathered into a ball of golden liquid, and then quickly transformed into a throne made of gold.
It looked like steps. Sanji walked up step by step with the phone in his hand, chewed a cigarette and smiled, raised his head and said: "Then, let's go."
The heavy golden base slowly left the grassland, carrying Sanji into the air quickly, flying straight towards the vast blue sky.
The wind howled outside the Telephone Bug Castle. Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper were lying at the gate of the castle, staring at the scenery flying by outside, and kept exclaiming.
Zoro and Nami also showed smiles. Montblanc, who was hitchhiking, saw this group of people really speeding towards the sky with such a whimsical and magical operation. He couldn't help but be shocked and couldn't recover for a long time...
Suddenly, a dark helmet condensed in the air of the castle, and shouted to Sanji outside the castle: "Be careful!"
"Um?!"
When Sanji heard this, he suddenly looked down. Gaya Island was already so small that it was only half the size of a palm. A black line suddenly struck the endless blue sea - no, it wasn't a black line, it was a bullet.
!!
An invisible bullet swept across the sky like a blade of light, heading straight for Sanji!
Snapped!
Sanji held his golden palm in front of his forehead, and the bullet that struck from the distant sea had actually sunk into his golden palm, sending out puffs of green smoke...
When Sanji de-golden his palm, blood suddenly gushes out from the wound in his palm, soaking the bullet that was used to accurately snipe him.
…
On the sea near Gaya Island, a giant bamboo raft-like pirate ship was floating with the waves. The sniper "Yin Yue" Fan Oka put down the long gun he held steady and pointed at the sky, and said calmly: "
What a pity, Captain, the other party responded well and was not shot down by me..."
Behind the bamboo raft, Marshall D. Teach, a black-bearded man who was eating cherry pie crazily, heard this and raised his head and laughed: "Didn't you shoot him down? Forget it, in this case, there is nothing we can do, so let's catch him next time."
