Chapter 72: The East Shore of the Island of Gaya
The eastern shore of Gaya Island, contrary to the bustle of the town of Magic Valley to the west, is a secluded corner off the beaten track. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info this is also the headquarters of the monkey-faced guy Luffy they met at sea. After separating from Luffy, he went straight back here.
As soon as he returned, he met his brother, the orangutan-faced guy.
"Oh, you're reading that storybook again! Is the old man there?"
"You're back, Masra, what's the harvest?" the orangutan folded his book, "The old man has dived again." ”
As soon as the orangutan finished speaking, a chestnut-headed uncle emerged from the sea, wearing only a pair of pants, revealing a strong muscle. He took a few big breaths of fresh air and resisted the discomfort in his body.
"Yo, old man!" the monkey, Masra, walked over.
"Ahem...... coughed lightly, the uncle lit a cigarette, sat down to rest: "Didn't you find the wreck?"
"Found it, but it was eaten by a giant sea king!It scared me to death, squeaky squeak!" Masra: "That figure that suddenly appeared is really terrifying!"
"You kid, have you run into [Jidi Yun] again? The uncle spat out a puff of cigarette: "It seems that you have to be careful when you go to sea recently." Don't just go to the south. ”
Masra squeaked and laughed a few times, "You know, you think we've been here for a few years?!Don't talk about that, old man, tell you, I met a bunch of nice guys today! They actually want to go to [Sky Island]......"
……
On the Merry, Rachel sat precariously in front of Nami, who had been staring at him with [kindness] since he returned to the ship. Others sat on the side like jurors.
"Luo~Xiu~Xian~Sheng!, do you have something you should say to us?" asked Nami with a kind smile.
The malice that came to his face made Luo Xiu feel as if he was facing the evil of his previous life. But that's just it: "Well, that's a long story." But Nami, when did you start doubting me?"
"Hmph, are you finally going to say it? Nami snorted lightly, and her face changed a little better: "When the Twin Gorges were there." You're dizzy so I don't know, I've always been very strange, a guy of your level would actually appear in the East China Sea, so I asked Luffy, and the result really surprised me, Mr. Luo Xiu from another world!"
"Nani?!"
"Luo Xiu is from another world?!"
Chopper and Usopp exclaimed in disbelief. Sanji, Zoro, and Guina didn't scream, but they were shocked, and their eyes were wide and their pupils were the best evidence.
"It's not something you can't say. Luo Xiu's expression didn't fluctuate, as if Nami was talking about what he ate at noon today: "Anyway, no matter where I'm from, I'm your partner now, aren't I." ”
"Uh-huh. Everyone agrees with this.
Nami's expression softened a little, "Then why don't you say anything? You know how to get to Sky Island, right?"
Luo Xiu rarely showed a trace of sadness: "There are some things, it's useless to tell you. And then there are some that can't be said......"
Nami's brows furrowed again: "I won't ask why...... At least say what you can say!"
"Okay. Luo Xiu smiled: "Then, let's go east." ”
…… The Merry is on the way......
“…… That's it, Rolando was put to death. He insisted until his death that he had found the golden capital, Shandia. On the way, Rosho told them the story of Rolando. is somewhat different from the widely circulated version in Beihai, and the story of Rolando, told by Luo Xiu, is more detailed. But no one seems to notice that.
"Oh, you can see it before, it's the home of Rolando's descendant, Bunbrandt Courik!" Rosho pointed to a conspicuous room on the shore. All you can see is a wooden plank, which is very conspicuous. When a group of people landed, they saw that there was only half of the room left behind the plank, and no one was found.
Luo Xiu didn't speak, waiting for them to find out for themselves. Anyway, I have mastered what I have seen and heard, and I can't even find anyone, so it's a fart!
Not disappointing Luo Xiu, Guina and Usopp sensed it at the same time, pointing to the shore: "There are people at the bottom of the sea over there!"
Almost echoing the words of the two of them, a chestnut head climbed ashore and looked at the group of people who suddenly appeared here with a fierce expression: "Who are you guys?! Don't you know that this is my territory?"
Kulik only felt that the pain in his body was getting stronger and stronger, and he couldn't help but feel impatient. At this time, he aimed at the pirate flag on the Merry: "Huh?!You are pirates! You are also here for my gold! Then take your life!"
As he spoke, an arrow rushed towards the nearest Sanji. Sanji found out that it was an old man, and he was careless for a while, and underestimated the enemy. I was beaten in embarrassment. Just as Sauron was about to save the scene, Kulik was suddenly robbed of his mobility by the severe pain coming from his body, fell to the ground, and then simply fainted.
Rosho and Chopper move Kulik to the house for a burst of rescue. After that, it's just a matter of waiting for him to recover. While they waited quietly, the orangutan and monkey returned.
"Oh, it's you!" the monkey beckoned, "Have you seen the old man? ”
Luffy pointed to the bed in the room: "He suddenly collapsed, was treated, and still hasn't woken up." ”
"What?!!Is the old man sick again?!Oh, thank you so much!" The orangutan and monkey hurriedly thanked him. Luffy also chatted with the two of them. I don't know if it's because the IQ level of the three people is relatively close, they talked very speculatively.
After more than an hour, Kulik woke up. When I opened my eyes and saw the familiar ceiling, even the pain in my body was much lessened. Kulik, who wasn't stupid, certainly knew he had been impulsive. Sit up, light a cigarette, and look at Luffy coming over:
"I'm sorry for your trouble. I thought you were here to steal the gold. ”
Luffy smiled, "It's okay, no one got hurt in the end anyway." Don't talk about this, uncle, I have something I want to ask you. ”
Kulik spat out a puff of cigarette: "Tell me about it. ”
Luffy pulled Luo Xiu over: "This person is my teacher." He said uncle, you know how to get to the empty island. Please tell us how to get to Sky Island, uncle!"
"It turns out that the guy that the monkey said wants to go to the Sky Island is you!" Kulik looked at Luffy and the others carefully, and finally turned his gaze to Luo Xiu: "Who are you? Why do you say that I know how to get to the Sky Island?"
Luo Xiu didn't know where to take out a Rolando's storybook and pointed to his head: "Looking all over the sea, only you Montblanc have such a domineering chestnut head!"
"Hahahaha......" Kulik smiled and touched the chestnut on his head, "Unfortunately, I don't know if the Sky Island exists or not." That bastard's ancestor died early, except for this chestnut head, only this story in your hand remains!"
"I still know this kind of thing. Luo Xiu put away the book, took out the map of the empty island, and took out a map of the current Gaya Island: "I came to you today for two main purposes, first, I hope you can tell us the time when the [Cutopus Cloud] will come, and the place where the sky-high current will appear at that point in time. ”
"Oh, I think you do know a lot. No problem, but your ship needs to be slightly refitted. Kulik looked at Luo Xiu with some surprise, and then he quickly noticed the map in Luo Xiu's hand, especially the word "empty island" seemed to appear on one of them: "The map in your hand, is it from the empty island?"
Luo Xiu overlapped the two maps, and then adjusted it: "This is the second thing I'm going to talk about today - do you remember the sentence that Rolando shed: I saw gold in the skeleton's right eye." ”
"Of course I do. It's a pity that I still haven't understood the meaning of this sentence......" Kulik was about to laugh at himself, but was attracted by the two maps: "This ...... It's ......"
Luo Xiu placed the overlapping map in the window, and the light passed through the paper, and the map of the empty island and the map of the current island of Gaya were combined to become a new island shaped like a skull: "Now, do you know? What is the right eye of the skeleton, where did the golden capital of Sandia go?" ”
"Ah...... Got it! got it all!" Kulik's eyes were wet and his nose was sour.
"Hey, Rosho, what have you been talking to your uncle since just now, why didn't I understand a word?" Nami said she wanted to know about the Golden Capital.
Luo Xiu put down the map and made a calm gesture: "Do you remember the story of Rolando that I told you when I was on the ship before? ”
"Nani ?!!"
"What did you say?!"
Both Sanji and Nami were surprised. Although the two were surprised and inconsistent. Sanji was amazed that the story he had heard since he was a child was true. Nami is due to the fact that she is in the Golden Capital at the moment.
Although the world thinks Rolando is lying. However, that fellow Rolando is undoubtedly an honest man. Luo Xiu found a place to sit down: "It's just that he doesn't know that Gaya Island has encountered a natural disaster." ”
"Acts of God?"
"Yes. According to the storybook, Rolando's death speculated that the island of Gaya had sunk to the bottom of the ocean due to changes in the earth's crust. However, after all these years, if it really sank to the bottom of the sea, the gold should have been discovered a long time ago. And what about the people who used to live on the island?"
"Could it be ......" Hearing this, Nami began to understand what Luo Xiu meant by what he said earlier.
"That's right, that's what Nami thinks of now: Sandia, the capital of gold, didn't sink to the bottom of the sea, but rose to the sky. Because of the monsters of this sea, the sky-rushing currents!"
