Chapter Ninety-Four: Sky Knight (I)
"Everyone's here, aren't they?" After breaking out of the clouds, the Golden Merry actually stopped in the clouds, but everyone escaped drowning. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"It's so uncomfortable, what's going on?" After catching his breath, Zoro found that his body seemed to be a little tired, and he couldn't use his strength. However, Sauron was not the only one who felt abnormalities in his body, as others also found themselves feeling a little hypoxic.
William also felt that his body was abnormal, but he knew that it should be altitude sickness, and in connection with the altitude of this empty sea, William explained: "It should be that the air here is too thin!"
"Look outside, guys! we're above the clouds!" shouted Usopp, who had first noticed the Golden Merry sailing above the clouds. Although their goal was originally Sky Island, after seeing it with their own eyes, some people in the Straw Hats still couldn't accept it.
"Why can we be up there?" Seeing Usopp's surprised expression, Sanji also stepped forward to take a look, and asked with questions in his heart.
Hearing Sanji's question, Luffy asked rhetorically, "Why not?"
"That's impossible!" Except for Luffy, all the partners unanimously voted that it was indeed impossible for the ship to sail on the clouds. At least under normal circumstances, the buoyancy of the clouds is not enough to support the weight of a ship, and all this in front of you can only indicate that this cloud is a special cloud, that is, the legendary Kukai.
Now that they have come to the sea of clouds, they have not discovered the legendary empty island.
"So, this is Kukai, but our compass is still pointing at it!" Nami said, looking at the compass. If the compass is not broken, it means that their ship did not reach their destination directly.
The recording compass will only react to magnetic islands, and since the needle of the recording compass is also pointing to the sky above, it means that the island is above the higher sky. And although the empty sea they are in now is endless, there is no trace of the island.
At the risk of breaking his bones, he finally came to the sky, but he did not reach his destination, the empty island, and Usopp said with a wry smile: "It seems that we didn't arrive directly at the empty island!"
It's no wonder that he has this expression, in just a few minutes, they were chased by Roberts and Blackbeard, and then experienced the incredible stimulation of the skyrocketing current. As a result, all of them were trapped in this white world, helpless.
"That means we're going to go higher up in the clouds, but how are we going to get there?" asked Nicole Robin, looking at Nami's compass in her hand. Although Nicole Robin was a scholar, he specialized in archaeology, not navigation.
Hearing Nicole Robin's question, looking at everyone's expressions, Nami also said helplessly: "I don't know about this!"
"There's a sea beast!" Chopper, who was watching Kukai, was startled by the sudden appearance of a huge fish. However, the size of this fish is not very large, that is, it is about the same size as the Golden Merry, and there are many creatures of this size in this world.
"What's all the fuss about!" said Lian and Zoro at the same time with their knives drawn and slashed at the fish that pounced on Chopper. However, when they made a move, they found that their strength was less than one-third of the ground, and they were silent for a while. If a more dangerous creature had just appeared, they might have to waste a lot of time trying to figure it out.
After the huge fish was cut down, its body was actually deflated like a balloon, and its whole body was more than half smaller, and its weight was even lighter. Everyone looked at the characteristics of this strange creature and said curiously, "What a strange creature?"
"It's to adapt to Kukai's environment!" Nicole Robin, who is knowledgeable, probably guessed that the reason why this creature has such a special situation should be related to Kukai's environment.
Indeed, as Nicole Robin guessed, although Kukai is also a sea, its buoyancy is not as good as that of a real ocean, and Kukai has no seabed. In order to adapt to this environment, these creatures have to find ways to increase their buoyancy to avoid sinking, so even though the creatures here are very large, they are very lightweight.
With no charts and no knowledge of the air and sea, they all quickly worked together, with William, Zoro and Chopper scouting their surroundings, Sanji preparing food for the group, Nami, Nicole Robin and Kerra researching and analyzing their next route, and Usopp and Rin overhauling the Golden Merry.
Luffy, who is the captain of the ship, is waiting for Sanji's food, and he is full of expectations for the ingredients of Sky Island, as if he is not worried about their current situation at all.
"Chopper, what's wrong?" William asked with some curiosity when he saw Chopper's strange expression.
"There's a boat, but there's none!" said Chopper, somewhat incoherently, "and a cow is coming to us on a quadrangular cloud." ”
"I don't understand what you're saying?" William and Zoro looked at each other with puzzled faces, not understanding what Chopper was talking about!
Actually, Chopper wanted to say that he found a ship, but the ship was sunk and all was gone. Then there was a strange figure in a bull-head mask that was speeding in their direction, except that instead of a quadrangular cloud, the man in the bull-head mask was stepping on a skateboard.
William and Zoro couldn't understand Chopper's incoherence, so they had to take the telescope and follow Chopper's findings, only to find a person moving quickly above the sea of clouds, and hurriedly shouted, "Is it a man? And he is still running above the clouds?"
It's just that the mysterious man in the bull-head mask has jumped into the Golden Merry, and it's clearly hostile. Because this person showed his weapon as soon as he came up, and he attacked them without saying a word.
"It's not good!" "At this time, Sanji, who came out with food, also discovered the murderous aura emanating from this mysterious person of unknown origin, and Sanji's first reaction was to kick it over.
And because the air here is too thin, the strength of all their members has not recovered for the time being, and Sanji's kicking strength is naturally much worse, so it can be said that the strength of the four major combat forces of the Straw Hats has been greatly limited for the time being, and they cannot be fully exerted.
"What's wrong with the four of you?" Nami asked in a panic as the four of William were defeated in just a few moves. Nami didn't know that the strength of all of them was limited, thinking that this was a monster-level figure who could kill William's four people in seconds, and scared everyone else.
The rest of the people, because they didn't exercise, didn't have a gap at all, and their bodily functions were not limited in this thin air and sea. If it were other ordinary people, they might have already reached the problem because of poor breathing, but the physical fitness of all the members of the Straw Hats gang is too good, and only the four combat forces can keenly perceive the discomfort of the body.
"I can't use my strength!" William and the others said helplessly. Once they really fought, they found that not only their strength was affected by the present, but also the oxygen around them was quickly insufficient, so that their strength fell to the bottom again, otherwise they would not have been lost in a few moves.
"I'll let you go this time!" the Bullhead Mask seemed to sense danger, and with a few words, he jumped off the ship and quickly left the Golden Merry.
"Who is that?" While everyone was puzzled like headless flies, they noticed that a man in knight's armor had landed on their ship on a group of horses.
"Well, the 'Sky Knight' is also!"
