After five days of sailing, the weather on the Grand Line began to become stable and calm.
"It looks like we're almost there. There's an island nearby." In just a few days, he roughly figured out the changes in weather conditions along the Grand Line. He is truly a genius in the history of mankind.
"Well, I hope this island is our destination-Gaya Island." Eric agreed.
Suddenly it got dark, as if the time had been fast-forwarded to eight or nine o'clock in the evening, "What's going on? A solar eclipse? It's getting dark too fast, or has the weather changed? It shouldn't be?" Leonardo da Vinci Wondering, she gradually figured out the changes in the weather and began to write a logbook to record the changes in the sky in order to find out the reasons for the changes.
At this time, on the clouds where the sea and the sky meet in front, there seems to be a sudden appearance, also like a black silhouette printed on it, with the figure of an ordinary person, holding a spear about the same height in his hand, and a small wing-like decoration on the back, describing In terms of scale, it is as tall as ten thousand feet, and its body is so huge that one wonders whether it was a mistake.
"What is this?" Everyone except Eric was surprised, but quickly calmed down.
"The captain seems to know what this is?" Chiron noticed that Eric's expression did not change.
"Hmm, it seems that the captain knows the reason." Da Vinci also asked curiously.
Even Chi Tong, who was silent, turned his head and stared at Eric.
"Oh, it's nothing, it's just the shadow of a person. Because the body is too far away from the shadow cast on the clouds, the shadow displayed is very, very huge." Eric said nonchalantly. "Isn't this the scene where the Straw Hats meet the salvaged apes?" I actually met him too. Sure enough, I am also the protagonist? ' idea.
"It turns out that it's just that the spread of light amplifies the shadow. The clouds act like a canvas. That's why I can't feel their breath in front of me." The knowledgeable sage understood it as soon as he explained it.
"However, according to the conversion between the size of a shadow and the stature of an ordinary person, these people are at least 10,000 meters in the air, and it looks like they are stepping on the ground, and the size of their wings cannot support their bodies. , standing at an altitude of 10,000 meters without any means of riding? Isn't this impossible?" As a physicist and very knowledgeable about optics, Leonardo da Vinci roughly deduced the location of this person and expressed doubts about it. .
Eric put his hand on Da Vinci's shoulder and said: "Hahaha, Da Vinci-san. You have to believe in light... No, that's a conspiracy. You have to believe in this world! And the Creator God of this world ( Oda)!"
Then he said seriously to the three companions: "These are the people on the empty island. You can see that they have a pair of wings on their backs, which is evidence that they survive on the empty island. Our next step is to find a way to get up. Moreover, Da Finch-san, although the physical science here is also related to the previous world, you must not believe too much in the human forms and animal forms you see. This will subvert all your previous cognitions. I think you will be interested in studying this in the future. Biology and botany of the world."
'After all, there are too many people whose upper bodies are stronger than elephants, but whose legs are thinner than toothpicks. 'Eric was thinking about a certain fighting champion and Ba Moute, who escaped from prison and had a 50-50 fight with Rayleigh.
"Since we can see this kind of scene, it means we are not far from Gaya Island."
An hour later, everyone saw the island.
"The people in this place don't seem to be good people. It's scary for me, who is perfect." Da Vinci pretended to be scared, approached Eric and said, "Captain, please protect me, my eldest sister. "
"Yes, I will protect you well." After all, Eric had been teased for several days, and Eric was gradually becoming immune to it.
"Still the cute little brother who blushes all the time."
"Then please reduce the frequency of teasing me, so that my immunity can be weakened, and I will gradually transform into a little brother with red faces."
"Don't deny it, little brother."
"..." I originally wanted to retort by calling Da Vinci Auntie, but I thought about how much women value their age and didn't want to be slapped into a face that even their mother couldn't recognize, so I kept my mouth shut.
"Chiron, please look at the ship. Do you need anything? We'll bring it back."
"Well... here is the shopping list. We need some medical necessities." Chiron prepared the shopping list early. He was truly a strategist and thought everything through.
Moku Town on Gaya Island is a town composed of free-spending pirates. The people gathered here are all extremely vicious guys, so there are many disputes. In just a short time, there were two groups of two groups chasing each other, starting from Eli. Ke, Da Vinci, and Chi Tong ran in front of them. There was also a tavern where a battle might have just broken out. Both sides of the battle smashed everything in the tavern into a mess.
"Is this the real pirate in this world?" Da Vinci asked curiously. After all, she had never encountered it before, and other pirates and navy would be her opponents in the future.
"Well, it shouldn't be counted, right? Some of them may be extremely vicious in attacking small towns and plundering other people's property wantonly, but the real big pirates are very terrifying: Xia Xia, who destroyed his country just because of a small matter of being late in delivering snacks. Lotto Lingling; and Shiji, the golden lion who has been preparing for twenty years to destroy the world. Compared with these, the pirates here can only fight in a small way." (I wrote here that most pirates will beat ordinary people, They plunder money and property, and destroy town buildings, but they won’t massacre ordinary people. After all, if they were all murderous pirates, the population would have been wiped out. And it’s too dark for me to write, so I just touched on some necessary plots. .)
"In other words, the pirates here are all gangsters and villains, right? They can only bully ordinary people." Da Vinci changed his explanation.
"Ah... Even though you think so, please don't say it! Look, there are people around!"
"Huh? Are you calling us gangsters? Villains?"
"wanna die?!"
"What do these three little guys pretending to be a family and come to Moku Town to do?"
"Are you too scared to move? Hahahaha..."
"Chitong, use the back of the knife."
"Um."
boom! boom! boom!
Several pirates who surrounded him were knocked to the ground repeatedly.
"Hey~!" The last one was so frightened that he sat on the ground. Because Chitong and Eric were too fast and did not see their figures, the others fell to the ground.
"Hey, are these poor guys here to rob?" Eric touched the corpse and nodded. It was only 30,000 beli. After all, the money was not empty. No, he had to pick up the money that fell on the ground.
"Then you..." Eric started.
"This is all the money I have!" He obediently offered the money, not knowing who was robbing whom.
"Fifteen thousand. Let me ask you something, where is the money exchange here?"
"There is no money changer here. If there was one, it would have been robbed long ago."
"After all, where the pirates gather... is there a map of this island and town? And where is the pharmacy?"
"The maps are sold in the shops next to the pier, and the drugstore is at the second intersection of this street." The minion, who only hoped to send the three of them away early, answered the questions quickly and without hesitation.
After buying all the items on the list, I treated Chi Tong to a feast, brought back a lunch box for Chiron, and bought a lot of metals with various properties at Da Vinci's request, and returned home with a full load.
By the way, the items on the list cost 500,000 Baileys, food 1.7 million Baileys, various metals 5 million Baileys - indeed, scientific experiments are easy to spend.
