Although the Great Voyage claims to be full of mysteries, all kinds of natural and unnatural factors are enough to surprise any broad-minded mental patient. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But most of the places here are no different from the four seas, still one sun and one moon, not as in some fantasy novels, suddenly there are so many more.

And the moon here will also be cloudy and sunny, and there will also be light and dark.

Tonight should be the middle of the moon, and the moon hanging high in the sky is round, large, and bright. Although it can't be said to be like daylight, the moonlight still shines everything clearly.

But that's all in the town. When the Princess Anne left port and sailed in the snowstorm in the night, the bright moonlight was no longer visible.

Like the classic images in those epic films, the sky darkens when the warrior embarks on an uncertain journey......

This will inevitably be followed by a tragic, yet exciting series of battles!

Accompanied by magnificent background music, blood and the afterglow of the sunset, swinging the sword and pointing forward, thousands of horses galloping......

Tomorrow's dawn! Look to the east!

Ahem......

All of the above is the conjecture of Crockdahl, who is holding a rum drink and is a little fluttery.

But speaking of which, when it comes to sailing, Crockdahl, who can't do anything but cause chaos, can only drink a little wine here and be a quiet beautiful man......

The occasional cranky thoughts are purely to pass the time.

It's like he always can't help but associate the name Princess Anne with "Blackbeard" Titch. Even if I knew that this Anne was Jenny Bonnie's nickname, I couldn't help but spread my brains, guessing whether these two people would have any special intersection in the future. Will Blackbeard's ship be called "Queen Anne's Revenge"?

It's super fun just thinking about something like this......

……

How far has the Princess Anne sailed since it left port?

Crockdahl couldn't estimate it, and he didn't even know how long he had been gone.

Is it half an hour, an hour, or more?

Consciously, the ship under him is shaking fast and slowly, occasionally stopping to change course, or even turning around and retreating some distance. Under this strange way of sailing, Crockdahl, who already has his own trek attribute, was completely dizzy, and he didn't know where he was at all.

The vast sea is difficult to discern the course, let alone in this kind of snowy situation.

In these conditions, visibility was so low that even though the Princess Anne was covered with navigation lights and made itself look like a moving luminous body, it still had no way to illuminate anything a hundred meters away.

Through the window of the cabin, all Krokdahl could see was a white expanse. Not to mention the port, not even the shadow of the moon can be seen. Any little bit of skylight is assimilated by white, and the navigation lights hanging on the side of the ship are only a dull halo.

The field of view is difficult and far, so it is naturally difficult to distinguish the direction and determine the reference. Coupled with the problem of the speed of the boat, it is easy to lose course if you don't pay attention. This kind of snow, although not violent, is as much as foggy and is one of the most annoying weather for seafarers.

Even if you don't have that heavy, damp fog, when you're at the bow of the boat, you're surrounded by snowflakes dancing in all directions, and you can't see anything other than white, it's definitely not a pleasant feeling. At least as far as Crockdahl is concerned, staring at the drifting snow for long periods of time is definitely torture, and even creates the illusion that he is going blind.

……

Jenny Bonney is a top navigator, as she proudly claims. Whether it is in terms of navigational knowledge, experience, brainpower and calculation, she is enough to use her strength alone to blow up the team of navigators who are composed of Crockdahl, and even the names of the members are dragons.

Perhaps Nami, who is also a member of the protagonist's team, has a stronger talent as a navigator, but in terms of current abilities, it is difficult to compare with Jenny Bonny. It's not just about the knowledge and experience of sailing, it's about the length of your hair and the weight of your chest.

In short, she still needs to grow.

At this time, under the command of Jenny Bonney, the Princess Anne was sailing in the wind and snow with a not-so-fast, but absolutely stable posture. There were occasional hesitations, but overall it went smoothly.

However, behind this seemingly smooth voyage, the difficulties experienced are definitely beyond words. This sea is, as Jenny Bonney said, conquered only by a strong navigator.

Without the guidance of the pointer and in the snowstorm, Jenny Bonny can only rely on the charts in her hand and the calculations of her mind to drive blindly and riskily.

As we all know, when a person closes his eyes and walks in a straight line, it is easy to deviate from the direction and turn a beautiful and graceful arc on the path that he thinks is a straight line. Only those who have a strong sense of direction will build a three-dimensional model in their minds to correct their position when they take every step.

Blind driving is similar. Even sailing at sea is much more difficult than walking in a straight line with your eyes closed.

You must know that the sea is not as still as the land, and the sea current is always in motion. Often, it is only a deviation of one degree, or a change in the rhythm of the speed of the sea flow, which is likely to turn into a voyage that is in the opposite direction.

What's more, ocean currents are not the only cause of disturbance. The sea breeze, the speed of the ship, the accuracy of the rudder and so on, will affect the sailing of the ship. There's a lot to calculate, and it's changing in real time. Sometimes, even if it is just a wave that is not calculated, it will cause a deviation of the kilometer.

At this time, in the absence of record pointers to help correction, it is no longer enough to rely on brain power and knowledge reserves. Experience may be effective, but it is more necessary to rely on the navigator's intuition, compare the chart to locate their own coordinates, and point the route to the destination little by little.

And to do this, all that is needed is the important factor that separates a good navigator from a top navigator – talent.

At this time, Jenny Bonny's destination was a relatively large reef group.

This reef group can be counted as a marker, which she uses to assist in positioning. Similar to this reef group, there are many other markings on the chart, some of which are a rock, some of which are a whirlpool, all of which are different. But when these points are connected, it is possible to form a winding line that connects the town with the Chambord Islands.

This route seems to be several times longer than the line between the town and the Chambord Islands, but it includes all the landmark objects between these two points, and every two landmark points are located in order to make the shortest voyage.

Obviously, this route took a lot of effort from Jenny Bonney. In the absence of guidance, all navigation can only rely on guesswork, this way of relying on landmark status, even if it ends up going around a large circle, is guaranteed to be safe enough. On the contrary, if you rashly choose to move towards the Chambord Islands, you are simply dying.

Because of this, most of the pirates on the Princess Anne are lying on the side of the ship with their navigation lights, their eyes wide open, and their expressions are nervous, looking for the shadow of the reef within a field of vision of less than 100 meters.

That's a terrible thing!

The field of view of less than 100 meters is nothing compared to the speed of the Princess Anne.

Even if the sails are now less than a third of the way out, and they are moving at a slow pace as much as possible, one negligence can miss it in the blink of an eye. And if they can't find the reef, it means they're lost in the waters......

After all, anyone who has begged for a living at sea knows that it is not easy to find the traces of these reefs, let alone in the middle of the night, even on a cloudless day. Unless the reef itself glows, it's hard to spot in this black-and-white background.

What is especially worrying is that since they use reefs as their destination, if there are reefs along the way, and they fail to find them in time, even if the Princess Anne has a shallow draft, it is not impossible to run into the reef.

So even if they are already being as careful as possible, the stakes are still very high.

……

The Great Voyage New World, an island in the unknown.

The island has a tropical vibe, and it looks like a deserted island. There are countless such islands in the ocean, and although they are not habitable, they can be used as temporary stops and recuperations for seafarers.

This unknown island has welcomed such a group of people at this time......

They are pirates, although a team of less than a hundred people is not much for a pirate group, but no one will underestimate them. Because they are one of the famous Four Emperors, the "red-haired" Shanks' pirates.

Also one of the Four Emperors, Shanks's Pirate Troupe, although the smallest number of people, takes the elite route. Among these people, even the little minions who are busy running errands are all people with hundreds of millions of Bailey bounties.

Except for the personnel on duty, most of the rest gathered around a campfire. They scramble for rum and food, chatting, bragging, and laughing merrily. From time to time, there was a burst of cheers, which caused the busy pirates to stretch their necks and peek this way.

Not far from these reveling crowds, on a shelf made of trees, a dilapidated ship was erected high.

The ship didn't look good, but it looked like it had been a terrible battle and was devastated and devastated. Above the hull, there are traces of burning flames everywhere, and the smoke is still rising. With the dragon head bow statue, the whole ship is like a dragon returning from the fire, roaring highly.

In fact, they did just experience an unexpected encounter with the naval fleet......
