[Chapter Heading Serial·On Cloud 4·"I heard that it was once regarded as a god"]
[A huge snake suddenly emerged from the jungle. The Sandia warriors protected Aisha and prepared to attack. Montblanc smiled slightly, and Weiper bit his cigarette and smiled disdainfully, What a god, it’s just a snake. Enel raised his head
He looked at it with an expressionless face, as if he didn't hear the criticism and sarcasm of the two people next to him...]
----------------------------------
"There is a high-speed current on the sea dedicated to the World Government, which connects the three gates of justice and symbolizes the three armed forces of the World Government."
"Government Army. Prison Army. Navy."
In the cabin of the Sonny sailing on the sea, in the spacious and bright bar lounge, a circle of sofas was filled with people.
Luffy and Chopper were fighting for snacks, Zoro was carrying a wine bottle, Sanji was handing Nami a drink, and Franky and Usopp were listening attentively.
One wall of the bar cabin is a huge ornamental fish tank. It was originally just for raising fish, but the mermaid Kemi likes to play in the water. Now she dives in and swims around, and Franky even specially gives her a fish tank.
There was a slide built on the top edge of the fish tank. If she wanted to take a rest, she could just slide down the slide to the sofa and have a drink to relieve her boredom. This was not the climate zone of Fishman Island or Shampoo Islands, so there was no suitable place for bathing.
In the bubble environment, mermaids are not fish people. If there is no bubble to support you when you land on the beach, it will be a bit troublesome to move.
At this moment, everyone gathered together and looked at a piece of white paper spread out by Robin on the coffee table in the middle. She drew a triangular ring ocean current on it, and the ".b" mecha materialized in equal parts as shown in the picture.
Separate the three ends slightly.
Meili was sitting on top of ".b"'s head. She lowered her head to look curiously. She almost slipped and was pushed up by ".b".
"Government troops...that means Justice Island." Usopp looked solemn.
Franky smiled and said: "Judiciary Island, the big prison, and the Marine Headquarters Marinefandore."
Nami put her golden staff against her chin, looked at the diagram and said: "We are going to the big prison to rescue Lynch, but we don't know the specific location of the big prison. So the best way is to pass one of the justice
Go to the door..."
"But the one on Judiciary Island won't work anymore." Sanji lit a cigarette with a gold lighter, "Ugh...because Luffy's grandfather said when he left that day..."
Zoro, Usopp, Chopper and the others couldn't help but recall what happened that day...
["Oh, I want to say sorry to the Warring States Period and others! After all, I am your boy's grandfather, I really can't arrest you here personally."]
[Before leaving, before Garp boarded the warship, he rubbed Luffy's black hair with his big hand. Luffy could only hear his grandfather's deep sigh, "But, Luffy, I also want to say sorry to you kid.
! You are a pirate after all - and, after what happened on Judiciary Island, your bounty has been increased to 400 million beli! Knowing that such a pirate group will definitely attack the prison, Grandpa, as a sailor, I
You wouldn’t knowingly fail to report it…”]
["Hehe...what does it have to do with it?" Luffy shook off his grandfather's big hand, put on his straw hat, and grinned, "How many people are there? Come on over."]
[Crack, the coat of justice swung, Garp turned around and boarded the warship, and never looked back.]
[Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Nami, Usopp, Chopper and others were either indifferent, calm, serious, or scared and nervously watching the shadow of the warship disappear at the other end of the horizon...]
"We don't know how much security will be raised in the big prison."
Robin drew a thick line across the point representing Impel Down City in the diagram, and said slowly, "Theoretically, as long as you follow the edge of this windless zone, you can definitely find the huge
The door to justice leading to the big prison cannot be ignored. But..."
She paused, "Since we have the information that Luffy's grandfather brought to the navy and the prison, we can't rule out that the World Government will send warships to ambush us on the dividing line of this windless zone."
The Mellie can be stored in the Telephone Bug Castle, but the newly built Sonny cannot.
too big.
One level of Xiaolu's castle is still filled with gold harvested from Sky Island, and there is no room to spare.
And what if the Sonny is abandoned and everyone temporarily enters the Telephone Bug Castle and flies along the windless belt to the prison?
Without your own ship at sea, the risk is too high. Moreover, many of the people around you are ability users. Even if there is a ".b" in an emergency that can draw out the devil fruit abilities from their bodies, they will not drown - but we are not fish after all.
If a human or a mermaid falls into the sea, their combat effectiveness will be reduced. Facing a fully armed prison army or even a naval warship, they will be even more at a disadvantage. Even if they end up walking into the enemy's long-awaited ambush, be prepared.
There is a difference between actively rushing in and passively falling in.
--"ambush".
『.b』 glanced at Robin's side face, she may have really had a psychological shadow on this kind of thing. Even before landing on an island, she had to use her knowledge, color, and domineering power with Huahuaguo to conduct a simple investigation...
"Then the only door of justice left is..."
The eyes of Usopp and others fell on the triangular circular sea current diagram in addition to Judiciary Island and the large prison.
"…Navy Headquarters?!"
The blue-faced "Sea Warrior" hugged Chopper tightly and said with tears: "We are pirates! How can any pirate have such a crooked idea? Just thinking about it scares people to death!!"
"
"Okay!" Luffy bit the marshmallow stick and said with a determined smile, "Let's go to the Navy Headquarters."
Click! Chopper, who was hugged by Usopp, tried his best to bite Luffy's leg, asking you to grab my marshmallow!
Nami casually gave Luffy an electrotherapy treatment, and her fangs roared angrily: "We are trying to find a way to pass through the Gate of Justice in Marinefando, sneak into a warship quietly, and go to the prison! This is the same as the so-called 'going to the Navy Headquarters'"
'It's completely different, okay?!"
"Think about it carefully..." Sanji turned the gold lighter and the flames went out, "In this way, Luffy's grandfather warned the prison and asked the navy to focus on the prison.
Over there, you might not have thought that we would try to open up the Gate of Justice in Malinfando." Zoro touched his chin at the side and said, "What does it matter, we have to chop it down in the end anyway..." Sanji said angrily.
: "You are a green algae head who only has muscles and knives in your mind. Even if there is still a fight in the end, you must discuss the countermeasures in advance!" Sauron said angrily, "Huh?"
The two of them were fighting together again. Even Franky was a little used to it. He pressed the schematic drawing with his big hand, pushed up his sunglasses, looked up at Robin and the black armor next to him, and asked: "So what is the plan in front of you?
?”
"The Chambord Islands," Robin said.
"Send the mermaid home first." ".b" She turned around and glanced at Kemi, who was staring at them with big eyes against the glass of the bathtub, and the starfish Papago above her head. "Marinfando's Gate of Justice is not like that either."
It is easy to fish in troubled waters - when you arrive at the Champaign Islands, split up. Some of them will go directly to Marineland, and some will stay in Champaign to make some big news to attract the attention of the navy. It is best to find a Celestial Dragon to kill directly, and kill the people sitting at the Navy Headquarters.
The general will lead him over.』
And if you want to make the operation of driving the Sunny to sneak into the Gate of Justice in Marinefando smoother, you must get a Devil Fruit...
『.b』 looked forward, looking through the cabin and the vast sea, and seemed to see the terrifying three-masted sailboat.
"Kill a Celestial Dragon" and "Lue the admiral over" were said in ".b"'s mouth, but they were so bland and lacked the dignified and serious atmosphere that these things should have.
"That, that, that, that, that's the admiral..." Usopp's teeth chattered a little, "Hei Zai, you can't fight before you merge with your own body, Lynch, right? Can we stop the admiral?
?Isn’t it too scary..."
"Isn't he just an admiral?" Nami clenched her fist and said with high spirits, "With Sister Robin here, what's the big deal!"
Hey! Usopp, Chopper, Franky, Zoro and others all have black threads at the same time.
Robin said: "There is an old acquaintance in the Chambord Islands. You, especially Luffy, should be interested in him... If you can get him to help, it will be no problem to tangle with the general for a while."
"And if you think about it..."
Robin looked at the sea view out of the porthole window and said to himself, "There is another person. If I don't ask her to rescue Lynch this time, I might be hated by her for the rest of my life."
Hate Sister Robin? Who?
Sanji crossed his arms and tilted his head, full of questions.
"Anyway, let's get to the Chambord Islands as soon as possible, Lu-" Robin raised his head and glanced around. Luffy was no longer visible in the bar cabin. Merry, who was lying on ".b"'s head, pointed out the window.
Said: "He seems... to go out to play..."
As expected of you, Luffy! Usopp and others have a black streak.
"There's really nothing we can do against that idiot!"
Nami shook her head and walked to Robin. The two of them stood in front of a wall. The wall was covered with the latest bounty orders for their ship's people that they had obtained on Judiciary Island.
"Straw Hat" Monkey D. Luffy, bounty: 444 million Baileys
"Pirate Hunter" Roronoa Zoro, bounty: 290 million beli
"Thunder Banshee" Nami, bounty: 200 million Beli
"Golden Foot" Sanji, bounty: 99 million beli
Pet Kemi, bounty: 70 million Baileys
"Iron Man" Franky, bounty: 44 million Baileys
Pet Rab, bounty: 10 million beli
Sniper Usopp, bounty: 10,000 Baileys
Pet Pikachu Chopper, bounty: 50 Baileys
Pet Papago, bounty: 50 Baileys
What an insult... ".b" was also looking up at these latest bounty orders. If it had a mouth, it couldn't help but want to laugh.
Luffy showed his Overlord's qualifications earlier than in the comics, and also showed his ability to be armed and knowledgeable. He single-handedly wiped out most of the soldiers on Judiciary Island, and the bounty was higher than that of 3 people from the same period in the comics.
It's normal to have a higher number of 100 million beli - the criminals who provoked the World Government on Judiciary Island only had 300 million beli. If you put it among the pirates in the New World, it would feel like that. From this point of view, it seems that the World Government
I don’t attach much importance to the appearance of Judiciary Island. After all, it is just an island of “Justice” in name only.
Zoro is similar. As soon as his weapon color enters the door, he rushes towards Liuying at a speed of 100 meters. Firstly, Liuying only represents a usage technique, not the basic strength of domineering; secondly, Suolong
Takashi learned the swordsmanship from Koushiro, a descendant of the Wano warriors, and it was originally a swordsmanship directly connected to the flow of Sakura. After being taught by ".b", it was naturally easier to master the flow of Sakura - this thing was originally meant to be mastered quickly.
Introductory stuff.
Nami's bounty is the most surprising, but it is reasonable. The lower limit for natural ability users is extremely high, not to mention the Thunder Fruit, which is also extremely powerful in nature. Nami blocked two CP9s by herself on Justice Island.
Elites, if the bounty cannot exceed 100 million, then they should go directly to the Navy Headquarters to fight - but in this way, in the battle on Judiciary Island, Sanji and others did not get much success at all, and the bounty seemed low, too
There is no way to redress the injustice. Although Nami herself feels a headache when she sees such a high bounty, Sanji bites his handkerchief and sheds tears every time he sees it. The bounty is even lower than Miss Nami!
As for Kemi…
『.b』’s eyes fell on her “bounty”.
"Why is Kemi's bounty so high?" Nami stood by and was extremely puzzled. "Although she was misunderstood as our fellow pirates, causing Kemi to be regarded as a pirate and put a bounty on her head... But she didn't even show her face.
How many times have we met, and why?”
"..." Robin was silent. As far as she knew, Kemi's "bounty" of 70 million was the standard starting price for selling female mermaids in the Chambord Islands.
Obviously, the same is true for Rab. The 10 million Baileys reward is not the real reward price for pirates, but the market price and minimum price of the goods being sold.
Nami suddenly smiled brightly and pulled out two warm bounty orders from the deep pirate line.
"Son of the Devil" Nico Robin, bounty: 1 billion Baileys
The World Government didn't know when it knew the name of Lin Qi's special martial arts that combined domineering power with the power of returning life, and actually gave him the bandit nickname "Ripple Messenger".
"Then I'll stick to it?" Nami smiled and waved the two bounty orders, "You two will have such a high bounty, it will definitely stimulate Luffy and Zoro's two idiots."
What about me?! Hiding in a corner somewhere, Sanji looked dejected and silently wiped his tears.
Nami looked at ".b", who shook his head and said: "It's up to you whether to stick it or not. But...this kind of decision needs to be made by the main body."
Nami asked strangely: "Aren't you essentially the same person? Isn't it the same when you make decisions?"
"But there is a difference in priority. Even if you just look at looks, it's not the same thing."
".b" said slowly, "'Although the two bodies are of the same mind, the main body is the main body and the double is the supplementary'. This is the consensus between the main body and I. It's just like... normal people have 'inhale, exhale, this way.
Live', instincts like that."
"oh……"
Nami nodded, not sure if she understood, so she looked at Robin.
Robin looked at the photo on Lynch's bounty order in her hand, "Don't look at me. Although I am the nominal captain of the JoJo Pirates, the backbone is Lynch. After Lynch is gone, I will never know
Where did we put the pirate flag we used to have..."
"oh……"
Nami looked at the two large reward orders in her hand, one old and one new, "No matter what, I posted it anyway!"
Bang! Bang! The orange-haired girl pressed them against the wall, pulled down her eyelids at the stunned Robin and made a face, and said with a playful smile: "Who told me that I am a 'banshee', so I don't want to reason with you?"
!”
~~~~~~~~~~
"The atmosphere suddenly became so cold!"
Seeing the large mass of black fog coming towards them, even the ship spirit Merry, who was sitting on Luffy's head on the lion's head on the Sunny, widened her eyes in shock.
"The Magic Triangle..." Nami flipped through the navigation manual she bought in the Capital of Seven Waters and kept looking up nervously, "I heard that more than a hundred ships stray into it every year and never come out... And
There are also legends like ghost ships!”
"You, you, you..." Usopp rubbed his arms and turned pale. Suddenly, he remembered something, and Chopper, who was also startled, turned to look aside. The black armor materialized into a helmet, and his hands
Arms, chest and abdomen, and half of the left thigh... huh? ".b" turned to look at them. Chopper and Usopp wiped their sweat and sighed with a smile: "Oh, they are just ghosts, aren't they around us? Hahahaha...
…”
Nami said speechlessly: "Compared to Hei Zai, Meili is the real 'ghost', right?"
"No! Labu ran away!" Kemi suddenly jumped out of the cabin like a large red carp, with a face full of anxiety. "What did I hear it shouting about?"
"Bubu?" Luffy, Zoro and the others tilted their heads.
"If I remember correctly..." Robin walked slowly to the side of the ship and looked at the huge thick fog that the Sonny was slowly sailing into, "You mentioned to Rab back then that Brooke was alone.
Staying on a ghost ship..."
After waiting for a while, ".b" did not answer. Robin turned around and saw its eyes flashing, and then said: "Yes, you remembered it correctly." Of course it had forgotten it, and it had specifically searched its memory just now.
.The main body did mention ghost ships at that time.
Rab may have heard what Nami said about the ghost ship, or perhaps Rab has heard humans mention the legend of the Magic Triangle and the ghost ship more than once in the past few years, but after all, it cannot speak human words. It has nothing to do with the fish in the sea.
It is also difficult for species to communicate with each other. Even if it knows the Magic Triangle, it may not be able to find the special misty sea area that keeps moving... After encountering it today, I can no longer help myself and plunge into this area.
In the thick fog, look for the companions on the ghost ship that has been missed for ten, twenty, or fifty years.
"Roar~~~!!!!!!!!"
The huge sound of the island whale echoed in the thick fog in front of the Sonny, and the sound was extremely sad.
"Rabu..."
Sitting on the head of the lion on the Sunny, Luffy murmured. Nami, Zoro and others on the back deck were also surprised, listening to the low and loud long moans coming from the huge thick fog,
Mixed with sadness and joy, it is unbelievable that these are the emotions conveyed in the sounds of animals. The mermaid Kemi and the starfish Papago couldn't help crying, especially Kemi sobbed: "I miss home so much..."
I miss everyone on Fish-Man Island so much...wuwuwu..."
Nami put her arm around Kemi's shoulders and patted her gently.
"Listen, there seems to be singing." Robin suddenly said.
Frankie and the others listened intently, and sure enough, amid Rab's long groans, they heard a vague and hollow voice that gradually became clearer:
"Yo ho ho ho...yo ho ho ho..."
"Yo ho ho ho...yo ho ho ho..."
Usopp shuddered all over, his face turned blue and said: "You, you, you, you, look at the back, behind, behind, behind...it's a ghost ship!!!"
Everyone turned around, and sure enough, in the thick fog behind the Sunny, they saw a huge, shabby pirate ship chasing after them. Luffy was so shocked that his hair, eyes, and teeth flew out.
"Sending Binx's wine to you..."
"Like the sea breeze, you can ride on the wind and waves..."
The huge ghost ship slowly approached and gradually passed by the Sonny. Nami was surprised: "Is it singing "Binx's Wine"? - Wait, I seem to 'hear' someone on the ship!"
"There is really someone..."
Sanji who was stunned, Zoro who was surprised, and Luffy who was smiling gradually all said so.
Franky, Usopp, and Chopper lay down with their noses snotting, and they all saw a skeleton with an explosive head next to the shabby pirate ship that was slowly passing by, holding a cup of coffee and looking at them.
The skull exploded while drinking coffee. The dark and empty skull eye holes were shining brightly like the sun. The people on the deck of the Sonny, Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Nami... had different expressions, but they were full of life.
The vitality slowly passed over his face, and he murmured in his mouth: "Send it over...yo ho ho ho, yo ho ho -" Brook's eyes passed over Robin and saw the black armor next to him, "
He spat out the coffee with a puff, raised his white hands and said in horror: "It's scary, there's a ghost!!"
"Are you qualified to say such things?!"
Usopp, Chopper, and Nami, who were still trembling, couldn't help but yelled speechlessly at the acrobatic skeleton.
".b" didn't materialize... Robin was a little surprised that the skeleton directly saw Lynch's stand-in.
"Brooke."
".b" floated directly up, suspended in front of the skull's explosive head, raised his right hand full of red flame patterns, pointed at Brooke's confused skeletal face, "Huh?", and then pointed to the right, "Look.
there."
"Mr. Ghost, what's wrong?"
Brooke then looked in the direction of ".b"'s finger.
The next second, the face of the afro-headed skeleton slowly appeared vividly... It looked like Luffy's expression when he saw the living Sabo in the Tokushima manga, his eye holes slowly became larger, tears magically flowed out, and his nostril bones
Miraculously, Li also drooped his nose. It was clear that there were no muscles and soft tissues. His mandible dropped dozens of centimeters, and it almost hit the side of the broken ship without being dislocated...
Ding...the coffee cup fell between the bones of the bones and fell into the sea.
Brooke murmured almost tremblingly: "Rab...Rab?!...Is it you...Rab?!!!"
"Roar!"
In the thick fog, a huge shadow came quickly.
"Roar~!!"
"Roar--!!!"
Rab's huge eyes were filled with tears, and he roared like a whimper while swimming desperately towards the skeleton on the ghost ship.
(Recently, my work and rest have become like hell again... strive to adjust and recover, and regain the glory of the 12 noon update!)
