Late at night, everything is silent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It's been more than an hour since the end of the pre-match rally in the Death Race.

In the cabin of the Golden Merry, the atmosphere was very solemn.

The Straw Hats and Maya sat around the table, their faces illuminated by a slightly dim light, and the rest of the men had serious expressions except for a second cargo captain who still looked cute.

"Meow~~~" Besti nestled in Nami's arms and let out a subtle cat meow.

It stared at a pair of scarlet cat eyes and tilted its neck, as if it was wondering what was going on with the shovelers.

But then the little black cat's attention was attracted by a pointer placed on the dining table.

Unlike the recording hand on Nami's wrist, this one resembles a normal needle in the four seas, except that it does not have a magnetic needle in the middle, and instead it is a small turtle soaked in water.

The little turtle stayed inside honestly, not moving. Luffy stretched out his hand and fiddled, and the little turtle immediately swung its limbs to adjust its posture, and hurriedly turned its head back in the direction it was facing.

"Hey, look, it looks like the person on the screen is right, its head will only go in one direction!" said the stupid cargo captain.

"The magnetic field in the Great Voyage is very chaotic, but some animals can still tell the direction very accurately. ”

Sherlock pushed his glasses, looked at the blue-haired girl who was in a state of despair, and said, "The ancestors of your Askar Kingdom are really a group of extremely wise people, Miss Maya. ”

Nami and the others have different expressions, no wonder Maya said last night that her pointer is alive, and it turns out that its body is a living baby turtle!

“……”

Maya was not happy at all, she looked directly at the turtle pointer on the table, and her mood was extremely complicated.

Her hometown of Lost Isle couldn't point the pointer to where for some reason, so after losing the turtle pointer, Maya thought she would never go back.

But just one day later, Maya was given a new turtle pointer at a previous pre-race rally.

This should have been a very happy thing, but ...... There are also more than 100 other pirate groups, and they have also obtained the turtle pointer!

Yes, the end of this death race is Maya's hometown: Lost Island.

The condition for becoming a champion is to find the legendary cursed holy sword, the Seven Star Sword, and bring it back to Hannabal.

(How did the son of the penguin know that the Seven Star Sword was sealed on Lost Island?, and how did he get so many tortoise pointers?)

Maya was deeply puzzled, and when she thought that her hometown was about to be visited by more than 10,000 vicious pirates, Maya's mind went blank.

"Mayan ......"

Looking at the extremely helpless and pitiful appearance of the blue-haired girl, Nami couldn't bear it, she wanted to comfort something, but she didn't know what to say at this time.

Several of them knew very well in their hearts what it would mean for Lost Island to be the destination of this death race.

That is bound to set off a bloody storm!

Expect those pirates to only hunt for treasure and not disturb the harmonious life of civilians? Then you might as well count on Luffy, a foodie, to stop eating meat again!

"Calm down, Maya. ”

Sherlock remained as calm as ever, resting his elbows on the table and his fingers crossed.

"It's not the time for you to be in a daze, it's still a while before the game starts, so we have to make a plan for it. ”

"All of us, will help you. The calm tone of a certain glasses revealed a calm and unhurried firmness.

"Help me?"

Maya was stunned, she looked at the group of pirates who had just known each other for a day or so, and her heart beat faster in vain.

"yes, Maya. Luffy nodded, and said, "Although you were bought back by Charlotte, since you joined us, you can be considered our partner." ”

"Isn't it just that partners should help each other?"

"Hmph~~" Nami, Sanji, Usopp, and Chopper smiled slightly, and looked at the blue-haired girl with firmness and encouragement.

Looking at these pirates who had refreshed her cognition again, Maya only felt a warm current flowing through the center of her heart, her nose was sore, and tears flowed down her face.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you so much......"

At this point, Maya couldn't find anything else to say.

"Che, what's there to thank you for?" Zoro clasped his hands around his chest and whispered, "We're going to compete anyway, those pirates are all enemies, helping you is helping ourselves." ”

"Stupid!" Nami angrily slammed the green-haired swordsman on the head and yelled, "Don't say such a bad thing at this time!"

"Cut, idiot green algae head!" The curled eyebrows and the cook gloated with a grim face.

"Hehe......" Robin chuckled.

After such a small episode, the atmosphere in the cabin suddenly relaxed a lot, and the gloomy clouds between Maya's eyebrows also dissipated a little.

"Alright, Maya. At this point, I hope you don't hide anything from us. ”

The transparent lenses reflected two white rays of light, covering Sherlock's eyes, and he quietly looked at the blue-haired girl and asked, "Is that legendary [Seven Star Sword] really hidden in your hometown of Lost Island?"

"Yes. Maya nodded.

Robin's expression changed, and he hurriedly asked: "Then the truth about the fall of the Askar Kingdom is also because of ......"

"That's right. ”

Maya nodded again, the expression on her face was extremely serious: "A thousand years ago, the incomparably powerful Askar Kingdom was destroyed by that Calamity Sword!"

The timid trio swallowed their saliva in unison, and they remembered what Maya had said at the barbecue party yesterday, and cold sweats broke out on their backs.

The two of them suddenly felt that compared to the cursed sword that could destroy a huge empire, the Great Bear King and the Fish-Man Alliance seemed much safer.

"Can a sword destroy a country?" Sanji was slightly stunned as he lit a cigarette

Zoro was also a little incredulous, frowning and asking, "No, what's so special about that sword, it's so terrifying?!"

(Sure enough, I should have thought of it.) Robin glanced at one of the glasses and exchanged glances.

When she returned to Qinghai from the Sky Island, Sherlock gave her, an archaeologist, several black books with ancient scripts written on them, as well as decipherable formulas.

Robin learns from those black books that the legendary cursed sword is not just a legend, but a terrifying weapon second only to ancient weapons!

An ominous crimson blood moon, a gaze from hell, and a calamity-inducing evil flame、......

Recalling the unclear descriptions of the Seven Star Sword in the Black Book, Robin felt that the Seven Star Sword could destroy a country, and it didn't seem to be a big problem.

"It's true, the Seven-Star Sword is the kind of cursed sword that only brings calamity!" Maya's body trembled slightly.

Even though she hadn't personally experienced the cataclysm thousands of years ago, the blue-haired girl could still feel how desperate her ancestors had been through through generations of survivors!

"In this way, let me tell you how the Seven Star Sword was born, so that you will all understand. ”

Maya sorted out her thoughts, and then began to whisper to the Straw Hats about the history that had been sealed for thousands of years.
