Chapter 40: The Giant Whale of the Twin Gorges

"Rubber, rubber, drill!!" The huge drill bit slammed into the entrance of the Upside-Down Mountain, pushed by Luffy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The shelf, which looked very sturdy, was crushed by this drill. The Merry rode the extremely fast upstream, and climbed up quickly.

More than ten seconds later, the Merry broke through the thick water vapor on the top of the mountain, and in front of it was a new world!

"Oooh! Is there a great route ahead?! Luffy shouted excitedly, "I'm here!" ”

"Keep an eye ahead!" Luo Xiu's weak voice came: "Quickly activate the emergency stop system of the Merry!" ”

The group of people who heard the sound recovered from their surprise and hurriedly operated. The Merry's sheep's mouth slowly opened, and strong winds began to erupt from inside.

"Gear up!" Luo Xiu reminded again.

Then the wind that erupted from the sheep's mouth suddenly increased several times. Now, the Merry's speed has finally slowed down.

As they slowly descended the stream, their ears rang clearly...... It's better to say a little too loud and over-the-top. A mountain as huge, the whale's call:

"Oooo

"You guy is dead!" Luffy punches the whale. However, don't forget, he still has a big drill in his hand, and Luo Xiu hasn't taken it back yet......

"Booh!" It visibly let out a wail, and then swallowed the Merry in a fit of rage.

Before Luffy could continue to do stupid things, Luo Xiu withdrew the drill bit. After recovering the domineering energy, Luo Xiu released more spiritual power, connecting the muscle cells in his body as a single cell, forcibly returning his body to a normal level.

After doing these things, Luo Xiu pinched Luffy's head, and [Kindness] revealed [Kindness] in his eyes, and when Luffy realized that he had done something wrong and began to tremble, he spoke: "You idiot disciple...... Thanks to you, we've been swallowed by this whale now. So, until we find the exit, can you stop slipping your hands? ”

"Hey!" Luffy shrank into a quail in fright. This is the sequelae of receiving Luo Xiu's training in the early years.

"Well, please pay attention, this is in the belly of the whale, although I don't know where the light came from, but obviously, it is man-made. So you should be able to find someone......" Luo Xiu said as he slowly let go of what he saw and heard. Maintaining the domineering state of his body occupies too much of his attention, and he can't keep seeing and hearing for the time being.

A large squid suddenly popped out of the side of the ship!

"I'm coming!" Sauron gripped the hilt of the knife in his hand. Before he could draw his knife, a harpoon pierced the squid's head.

Looking in the direction the harpoon was flying, they saw ......

"Flowers?"

"Stupid, look closer, it's human." Luo Xiu was relieved when he saw this person. It just so happens that his body is almost at its limit.

"Robin, that old man is a good doctor. Next, I'll leave it to you......" After speaking, Luo Xiu slowly lay down and focused all his attention on maintaining his body. The sound in his ears gradually faded away, and Luo Xiu's body fell silent.

When he regained consciousness, Luo Xiu found himself lying on a recliner, wrapped like a mummy. The Merry was anchored in the ocean not far away, while the others listened to Kulokas talk about the past.

From the mouth of Kulokas, they learned that the big whale was called Rab. It was entrusted to the care of Kulokas by a group of pirates more than fifty years ago. But more than 50 years later, they never returned. However, Rab, who still firmly believes that his companions are still alive, howls at the upside-down mountain every day, and even hits the cliffs of the Red Earth Continent with his body.

"It feels like the Red Earth Continent is hindering his companions from coming back......" Luo Xiu controlled his domineering power and held him up along with the chaise longue under him.

"Oh, boy, you're awake." Kulokas glanced at Luo Xiu and said with emotion: "It's a shame that your kid can survive!" The muscles of the whole body are broken, and the organs also have varying degrees of failure...... If it weren't for those domineering forces forcibly maintaining the body, your kid would have been cold by now. ”

"Ha, the situation forced it, and it's not like I've survived." Luo Xiu said it easily, but others, especially Luffy, felt their own shortcomings.

"Speaking of which, that domineering ...... You kid knows a little bit about medicine, too. ”

"I understand a little. It's just a long-term illness that becomes a doctor. ”

"Hey, old man doesn't believe it! If you can use your abilities to that extent, you kid, you have already [awakened]! ”

"Well...... Even if you wake up, you can only do it to this extent now. Luo Xiu turned his head and looked at Rab in the quiet: "You said that his partners are dead, right?" ”

"If you're not dead...... How can it be that he hasn't come back for more than fifty years......" Kurokas said sentimentally. Those pirates are his friends, too!

"It's hard to say—" Luo Xiu still decided to reveal a little information.

"Huh? You guy, don't you know anything! Kulokas was getting old, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and stared at Luo Xiu.

"Don't look at me like that......" Luo Xiu stretched out a [domineering hand], stretched out slowly, and arrived on the Merry. After a few minutes, the black hand was withdrawn, holding a shell.

"Otobe? You have this rarity! Kulokas' eyes glared again: "I want to know more and more, who are you?" ”

"I'm just a passerby......" perfunctory answer to the truth, the ground near Luo Xiu fluctuated, one by one parts appeared on the ground, and many [hands] stretched out from his body. A few minutes later, in the dazzle of a crowd, something that looked a lot like a horn was assembled.

"Bo Oooo

Coincidentally, Rab started to make a fuss again. Luo Xiu no longer hesitated, started the machine that had just been made, and then pressed the switch of Yinbei, and a cheerful song echoed in the Twin Gorges:

"Yo Ho Ho Ho Ho ~ Yo Ho Ho - "

"Yo Ho Ho Ho Ho ~ Yo Ho Ho - "

"Bring Binks' wine to you."

"Like the sea breeze, ride the wind and waves."

"On the other side of the sea, the sunset is noisy.

"The song of the birds, drawing circles in the air."

"Goodbye Harbor, Land of Silk."

"Let's sing a song, the song of sailing."

"The golden waves and silver waves have also turned into splashes."

"We are leaving because the ocean ......"

"Binks's Wine", a cheerful tune with a calming magic. Kulokas seemed to see the cheerful and friendly pirates laughing here decades ago......

Rab's eyes were filled with tears, and the roar was the loudest in decades:

"Boom, Oooh—"

"I found this sound shell at an antique market. It is said to have been found near a sea area called the Devil's Triangle on the Great Passage. Luo Xiu slowly recounted: "I heard that in that dark sea, there is a ghost ship that has been wandering for more than fifty years. There was a skeleton with an exploding head on the ship, humming the song......"

When Luo Xiu said this, the machine was not turned off, so these words naturally entered Rab's ears.

"Wave Oooo

Its tears flowed more fiercely, and the roar revealed a thick sense of nostalgia, sadness, and ...... Joy.

"Exploding head...... Brooke! Kulokas burst into tears and couldn't stop crying: "You bastard is still alive......"

The others listened in the clouds, but Luffy looked clear. Luo Xiu knew that he should also have the ability to listen to the voice of all things. In Rab's scream, Luffy knew everything.

Luffy silently walked up to Luo Xiu, picked up the megaphone, and said loudly to Rab, "Let's make an appointment!" ”

The others looked at Luffy, not knowing what their idiot captain was up to.

"I'll be the king of the pirates! Find your partner! And bring him before you! After saying that, Luffy smiled:

"Then you can go on an adventure with us!"

"This kid...... How dare you say it......" Kulokas was unforgiving, but the smile on his face had betrayed him.

The others were smiling. That's right, it is precisely because of this courage and heart that they are willing to join the command of this idiot.

"Woooooooooo......oo It's so touching......"

An ugly cry drew everyone's attention to the mysterious man and woman who had planned to hunt Rab and was knocked unconscious by Luffy's punch.

"You two are still here." Luffy said dumbfounded.

"Where can we go with you tied up?!" The woman was silent, and the man complained loudly.

"Who the hell are you?" Finally someone asked the key.

"Hmph...... the man looked amazing: "I won't tell you!" ”

"......" Luffy was silent for a second, then turned to Zoro and said, "Zoro, how about cutting this guy and throwing it into the sea to feed the fish?" ”

"No problem! That's what I want to do! Sauron grimaced a menacing smile as the knife slowly unsheathed.

"Right...... Right...... I'm sorry!! Please let me go! The man apologized undisciplinedly: "But the organization we belong to can't leak information under any circumstances!" If it violates the ...... It's going to die! ”

"Shut up, Mr.9!" The woman scolded loudly.

“mr.9?” Luo Xiu controlled the recliner to move over, and in the "surprised" expressions of the two, he said the identities of the two:

"I mean, you two, you're from the Baroque Workshop."
