In the West Sea, among an unknown island
Ke Na sat on a pile of corpses, holding a pile of newspapers and thinking.
Under the piles of corpses, a man slowly walked out smoking a cigar.
"Hahaha, have you stopped~" "Although I don't know who you are, but you will not let you leave so casually after provoking our prayer meeting. Now that you have killed so many people, you must have no physical strength anymore. Right. You must have been able to feel the feeling of weakness in your body."
The cigar man took a puff of the cigar very calmly and slowly, and puffed out a smoke ring happily.
"Although it took a lot of manpower, they are just some simple tools that can be replenished at any time, and you no longer have the strength to move." "Stop pretending, try your best to breathe heavily, I have eaten the fruit of fatigue. As a person with abilities, the physical strength loss of any person in my field will increase exponentially, and it will be almost impossible to recover physical strength. Even a swordsman with superior physical strength cannot persist in fighting for more than one minute in my field. You I have been holding on for 2 minutes and I am already very strong. Tell me who sent you here."
However, the man's words did not receive any response. He sat on the corpse and read the newspaper in silence.
A trace of softness slipped through the cold eyes, but the next moment it changed into as sharp as ice.
"Be quiet. Maybe you can try to escape while I'm in a good mood." "After all, it's acceptable for a mouse-like prey to escape."
After saying that, Ke Na continued to read the newspaper, and the corners of her mouth curled up involuntarily.
"Are you still going to resist? If you don't tell the person behind it, then we will take action! Don't blame us for not giving you a chance then!"
"...huh~"
Kona let out a long breath, rolled up the newspaper and tied it to her junior's bandage.
Then he stood up smoothly under the gaze of a group of men in black surrounding him.
"To be honest, I did feel a little abnormal just now, but..."
Kona's figure disappeared in an instant, and appeared behind the man the next moment. The dagger in his hand turned over a few flowers and then was inserted into the scabbard of the junior. There was no sound during the whole process, not even the slightest sound when sheathing the sword.
"Ability is a good ability, but you are too weak. So weak that you can't even feel how much energy I have consumed..."
Following Kona's whisper, the people in black surrounding the circle seemed to have made an appointment. Several huge wounds suddenly opened on their bodies, and blood spurted out. Let this room filled with the smell of blood become a little fresher...
"Another guy with no information. If he hadn't happened to see something in the newspaper, he wouldn't have made a sound. And you also happened to hear it..."
With that said, Kona shrugged and walked out of the room, took out the newspaper and continued reading.
This trip came here to track down clues about Chun Zha. However, I don’t know if it was because of the Battle of Santa Bobola two years ago. Chun Zha’s actions have become very covert in the past two years. Kona found nothing after searching for a long time. Find accurate information. When I came here this time, I didn't intend to go on a killing spree. After all, I used the secret navigation route of "Lan" to get here. If I was noticed, it might bring some trouble to the "Lan" organization. But who could have expected to see such information all of a sudden.
"Is that Yuyuko guy too idle for two years?" A bright smile appeared on Kona's face. "I actually remembered that my original purpose of going to sea was to travel. Well~ Since the captain is leaving, I should go back too. . Anyway, things here are basically stable, and Locke is not panicking at all now... But."
Kona raised her head helplessly and looked at the hundreds of people around her who were blocking her. She didn't know whether to laugh or be annoyed for a moment.
It’s already very low-key, but why do you react so quickly~
Isn’t it good to just keep fishing and paddling?
Although Ke Na can easily walk on the air and leave, but since others are here, she should continue her activities~
The next moment, a trace of scarlet appeared in Ke Na's eyes.
As long as no one sees it, the investigation is not discovered. Even if someone sees it, it doesn't matter. The worst thing is to change the strategy and make everyone who sees it become dead.
…
Two days later, Kongdao
A newspaper is printed from a special printing machine.
This is a technology provided by the Revolutionary Army more than a year ago, but it is rarely used on Sky Island.
This is the new base of the 'Lan' organization. It is a real headquarters independent of the previous base in the windless zone. In the past two years, Locke has slowly transferred the core members of the Hersius Base (the headquarters of the Windless Zone) to the empty island bit by bit.
Especially those elites who came out of the training camp in the past two years. Although most of them have returned to their pirate groups or the four seas bases, almost all of the elites who came out of the original headquarters came to Sky Island.
As for Xiakong Island...
The skills of the Moon Step have been taught. If you are not proficient in the technique, you will be scared. It is only about 4,000 to 5,000 meters, and falling will not be that scary...
Well, even non-combatants can use weather ships to travel, but non-combatants generally do not need to leave the air island. Moreover, weather ships have a high probability of being discovered and will not be used at all without serious incidents.
The last time I used it was several months ago. The purpose is to conduct a secret handover with the revolutionary army and rescue a revolutionary comrade who is being hunted by the world government.
This printing machine often plays the role of conveying help messages.
Of course, another function is to deliver new newspaper information.
The Sky Island is so high that even Newsbirds dare not go up there, let alone cross the White Sea with many empty fish. Generally speaking, if they are not buried in the belly of fish, Newsbirds will also suffocate in the sea clouds. die.
So in order to solve this problem, the air island is equipped with this kind of machinery.
And today is the day for news.
The source of the news was a Donghai newspaper that had a good cooperation with Qishi. It paid a lot of money, and all it had to do was to pass on some newspaper information from big newspapers like World Economic News. It is very important to judge based on the news content that it needs to be delivered as soon as possible. After all, the money is already there.
"Today's news is world economic news~"
After receiving the information about the new newspaper, Mina and Yareyanan, who were staying on the island, hurried over.
The life on Sky Island may be interesting at the beginning, and there are various ways to play with the various shellfish unique to Sky Island, but no matter how fun it is, it can only last for a while. In two years, the fun has been almost worn away. Therefore, whenever there is news, reading the news becomes their source of happiness.
"Let's see if there's anything interesting happening recently."
"Mom, don't worry~"
"Tch, Mina, of course you are not in a hurry. You just came back from Santa Bobola some time ago. Just like my sister and I, we haven't left Sky Island for two years. It's super boring, okay!"
"Well~" Mina tilted her head and thought for a moment.
When she was in Santa Pobla, people followed her wherever she went because she was the Queen of Spring. Although everyone was very enthusiastic, and although Grandpa Carol and Sister Luo Li took good care of her, Mina didn't feel like the moon was being held by stars. dislike.
Obviously I just went to the street to eat some snacks and feel happy. Then a group of people gathered around for no apparent reason, some of whom didn't say anything.
"Ah, I'm dead~~"
"Quick, quick, first aid kit, I can't hold it anymore!"
"No, *** you are the man who wants to become the Pirate King. How could you be conquered so easily!"
"Ah, Mom, it turns out there is someone who can be so cute that people forget about the art of tea!~"
…
"Saint Bobla is no fun..." Mina concluded.
Then Mina and Yanan started flipping through the newspapers together.
Ya Lei, who followed the two of them, sighed, shook her head helplessly and followed. Perhaps because the fruit's ability has improved again, Yalei has been able to make her presence feel normal when she is not using her ability. At least her presence won't be ignored by familiar people.
News is a good thing.
Although it is very fulfilling to continue studying ship technology on the sky island, blindly focusing on research will always be boring. For Ya Lei, reading the newspaper with her sister from time to time is also a kind of relaxation.
And although it has only been in the past two years, it is not difficult to see from some photos in the news that the design and navigation technology of ships on the sea have made great progress.
"Huh!!!"
Yanan and Mina suddenly exclaimed, "Sister Yalei, come on! Look at this!"
Yanan excitedly pointed to the advertisement column in the newspaper. There was a familiar pirate group, which was their pirate group. The Flying Flower Pirates.
"Sister, we can travel again!!"
…
At this moment, a merchant ship from the Chambord Islands slowly entered the port of Santa Bobola.
As soon as they entered the port, the merchant ships began to get busy. Countless goods need to be unloaded and counted. The owner of the merchant ship is already on the dock and exchanging words with the handover personnel, and they are communicating in a very "friendly" manner.
At this time, the captain responsible for steering the ship knocked on the door of a guest room.
"Ms. Bella, we have arrived in Santa Bobra."
The door opened slightly, and Bella walked out slowly, wearing a rather revealing outfit and with blue hair.
"Are you here already? Thank you for taking care of me along the way." Bella said with a smile.
The captain was a little at a loss. "No, no, no, no. Let's talk about care. If it weren't for Ms. Bella's help along the way, we probably wouldn't have been able to reach Santa Pobla safely. Although the boss didn't know that it was you who saved us, I still know." . If you hadn’t secretly said something to the Sun Pirates when we encountered them before, we would have suffered heavy losses this time.”
The captain meant what he said because he understood.
Although the Sun Pirates have a good reputation, they have the right to legally plunder after all. Although the boss does not dare to do business like mermaids, he is also the kind of person who looks down on fishmen. When they encountered the Sun Pirates before, they had actually noticed the boss's appearance and were ready to teach him a lesson. Although the Sun Pirates are unwilling to hurt people at will, they do not object to looting goods. Jinbei is a Shichibukai, and the right to legal plunder is also given by the World Government. Even if he is tricked by the World Government, he can only admit defeat.
However, this kind of thing was reversed after a quiet conversation with this woman.
Although I don’t know who this person is, his origin is definitely not simple.
Moreover, she is a beautiful woman. If she dares to wander alone on the sea, she must have her own trump card.
The captain didn't have too many bad thoughts. I just want to make friends. If I can get some friendship, I may be able to guarantee my own safety when encountering some things in the future. After all, he is just an ordinary sailor...
Bella smiled slightly, thinking that she could still understand the captain's little thoughts.
She had obviously noticed everything a long time ago, but she didn't say anything and only mentioned it now. This was because she understood that she didn't want to attract attention.
Bella was a little grateful for this.
"It's not a big deal, I just happen to know the Sun Pirates a little bit."
"We know each other!" the captain smiled bitterly. "I'm afraid you are more than just acquaintances. I don't know..."
"Okay, okay, I know what you mean." Bella laughed softly. "I wasn't afraid to know. My name is Bella, a crew member of the Flying Flower Pirates. Others may not give you too much face, but If it's a fishman, maybe I can give you a good look."
After speaking, Bella slowly left the dock.
Only the captain was left with a confused look on his face.
After a long time, the captain finally came back to his senses and said, "So, are they the crew members of Lord Shan Ji? This makes sense."
The captain looked outside at the prosperous Santa Pobra.
For the Shichibukai, no matter how perfect they have been in the past two years, people have never forgotten the fact that they are pirates.
But only Ogihime is not. In two years, no one still cares about her identity as a Shichibukai.
Just because the Hikka Pirates have done too much.
In the past two years, countless pirates have failed before the Chambord Islands. Pirates with a slightly higher bounty will choose to take a detour before Santa Bobola. Even flying the flag of Saint Bobla in the Devil's Triangle can increase the survival rate. This has been tested by countless people and is effective.
How dare the people of Shichibukai to slander such people~
Especially the Spring Queen who is so innocent that no one can look directly at her. Who would have thought that she was actually a pirate...
"She came here to travel to the sea with Lady Shanji~ I hope they have a smooth journey."
"But, why can this name only give face to fishmen like the Sun Pirates?" "Could it be?..."
The captain immediately figured out the key, and his face showed a mixture of horror and surprise.
After a moment, he shook his head and laughed, "I see, this is the magnanimity of Lord Shan Ji!"
Even mermaids can be recruited sincerely.
As for why this can be determined.
Don't underestimate an old captain who has been sailing on this most complicated sea for more than ten years! If you don't have some connections and knowledge, how can you dare to travel through this sea area casually?
Didn't Bella explain it well?
Laughing, the captain returned to the captain's cabin. After being tired for so long, he also wanted to rest. Being at the helm is no easy task...
"But if the Flying Flower Pirates go on a trip this time, there may be more monsters and monsters in this sea area... Hey."
