On the 'Ghost Ship', 'One Piece' Rhodes was thinking about something with his eyes closed with a grim expression.

"Full fire salvo? Clemenceau, for the first time in the past six months, you have used this method against the 'ghost ship', are you not afraid of sinking the 'ghost ship'? I heard that the order given to you by the Federation of Valencia is to capture the 'ghost ship' and retrieve the cargo of the 'Princess of the East'...... It seems that the successive failures have taken a deep toll on your self-esteem, and you will not hesitate to disobey your orders...... well, I'm in a bit of trouble now!" Rod suddenly opened his eyes and muttered to himself.

Rhodes reached out and took out an ancient book made of gold leaf from his bosom, and when his eyes fell on the cover of the ancient book, he suddenly became fanatical, and he was reluctant to take it away.

"In fact, what the Federation of Valencia really wants to recapture is this book! I didn't expect this legendary book to be hidden in the cargo shipped by the 'Princess of the East'. With this strange book, I will soon be able to step into the realm of the Holy Order! At that time, my title of 'One Piece' will be worthy of its name, and those who think that I just relied on the 'ghost ship' to get the title of 'One Piece' and disobey me will be convinced!"

"But what great man in the Valencian Federation wants to do with this strange book, isn't he afraid that the Holy Catholic Church will find out about it and punish him as a heretic?" Rod thought in confusion and wondering.

"Your Excellency, the magic barrier is no longer enough to block the next round of enemy attacks, and the enemy's two 'Astute' class battleships are less than a thousand meters away from our ship, may I ask if our ship will immediately become invisible?" The skeleton sailor's soul fluctuations brought Rodra back to reality.

Stealth is a unique skill possessed by the 'Ghost Ship', that is, relying on this skill, the 'Ghost Ship' can crisscross the sea and win or escape in countless naval battles.

Rod frowned. Actually, he didn't want to make the 'ghost ship' invisible right now. Because it had only been a few days since the last time he used the 'stealth' skill to escape from under Clemenceau's nose, the 'ghost ship'' had only recovered a small part of its own energy, and Rhodes didn't expect to be caught up by Clemenceau again so soon. However, if it becomes invisible again when the energy is insufficient, the 'ghost ship' will no longer be able to become invisible for a period of time. Not at the end of his rope, Rhodes didn't want to use this stealth lightly.

"Wait and see! If the Valencian fleet continues to fire a salvo of full firepower, it is determined to sink the 'ghost ship', and then it will not be too late to become invisible!" said Rhodes.

As a result, Rhodes was right.

The Valencia fleet did not strike the 'ghost ship' with full firepower again, and the pressure on the 'ghost ship' plummeted. The freed hands of the 'ghost ship' immediately launched a heavy artillery attack on the 'Nimitz' and 'Ford', forcing the two ships to stop their high-speed charge and make emergency evasive actions on the sea, and the distance that had been shortened from the 'ghost ship' was once again widened.

In this way, the chase between the Valencian fleet and the 'ghost ship' continued like a marathon on the sea, until the two sides broke into one of the most dangerous areas of the North Sea, the 'Misty Dead Sea', and the situation suddenly changed.

As the sun sets, the sunset glows like fire, and the afterglow of the setting sun turns the sea red.

However, contrary to the majestic and magnificent sunset seascape outside the cabin, One Piece's mood at this time can be said to be extremely gloomy.

Rhodes made the sea his home, and the four seas that surrounded the continent have left his footprints. As a result, Rhodes is no stranger to the North Sea in which he finds himself today. He didn't expect that he would escape all the way to escape into the 'sea of mist' in the North Sea in a panic.

However, Rhodes soon turned his worries into joy. He glanced down at the Valencian fleet in front of him who was still chasing him in the magic crystal ball, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Fortunately, it's only on the edge of the 'Sea of Mist' now, and the fog on the sea hasn't risen yet, hmph, Clemenceau, this game between you and me, which has been going on for six months, should have an ending!"

Rhodes strode over to the console of the 'ghost ship', reached out and pressed on a piece of dark crystal on the console, and poured the magic of his whole body into it......

"What? all the battleships' compasses have lost their response?" Clemenceau was taken aback when reports from the ships of the fleet were received almost at the same time.

But before he could recover from the shock, another piece of bad news followed.

"The 'ghost ship' is invisible!" said the lookout's voice at the top of the 'Minehir' mast.

"Stealth, damn one, it's another trick!" Clemenceau yelled.

Every time Rhodes uses the trick of 'stealth', the 'Ocean Fox' will be helpless. However, fortunately, the stealth of the 'ghost ship' could not last too long, and it was only about four hours at most at a time. Moreover, although the 'ghost ship' is invisible, it still has to sail after all, and if it sails too fast, it will definitely set off obvious waves on the sea, which will reveal its location, and stealth will lose its meaning. As a result, the 'Ghost Ship' usually keeps its speed to a minimum when it is in a stealth state, so whenever the 'Ghost Ship' finishes its stealth appearance, it will not be too far away from the Combined Fleet. And Miller, the chief magician of the court next to Clemenceau, is good at using the long-distance reconnaissance magic 'Clairvoyant Eye', and this is when Miller shows his skills. Once Miller has rediscovered the location of the Ghost Ship in the vast expanse of the Sea with his 'Eye of the Eye', Clemenceau will lead the Combined Fleet to catch up again. It was only by this method that the Combined Fleet did not lose the 'ghost ship' for six months.

Clemenceau frowned, and after walking a few steps back and forth in the command room, he suddenly ordered the adjutant beside him: "Bring me the navigation map immediately!"

"General, what are you doing looking at the nautical map? After a few hours, I'll use the 'Eye of the Eye' to search for the 'Ghost Ship' again. This is the sea, and after the 'ghost ship' has finished its invisibility, there is no place to hide and hide on the sea, and it cannot escape the search of the 'Eye of a Thousand Miles'. Didn't we do this all the time?" asked Miller, puzzled.

"Master Miller, it's not been a few days since the 'ghost ship' last became invisible, and its energy hasn't fully recovered. Just now, under the dangerous situation of battle, Rhodes was reluctant to use the little energy left to make the 'ghost ship' invisible again, but now the 'ghost ship' has suddenly become invisible, and I suspect that there is a deception in this!, and now the entire fleet's navigation compass is out of order, which deepens my doubts!" Clemenceau unfolded the chart that the adjutant had brought him, and explained to Miller as he looked at it.

"Sea of Mist?" When Clemenceau found the sea area he was in from the chart, his pupils instantly widened.

"Rod, you despicable undead have led us to the 'Sea of Mist'!" Clemenceau strode over to the Magic Communication Crystal, ripping his throat and yelling, "Attention, turn back immediately, and leave this sea area immediately!"

The warships of the Combined Fleet immediately began to turn their rudders back after receiving an urgent order from the flagship 'Minahir'. But it was too late.

When the sun sets completely and the night falls, there is a sudden change on the sea. The calm tide suddenly became turbulent, the storm howled, and the thick fog was generated almost in the blink of an eye, quickly engulfing the vast surrounding sea.

In the dark night, the warships of the Combined Fleet lit up their signal lights to indicate their location. However, because the fog at sea was so thick that the light of the signal lights could not penetrate the fog at all, the warships of the Combined Fleet were instantly blinded and soon fell into chaos.

"Your Excellency, the sight of the 'Essex' is obscured by the fog, and it is now impossible to distinguish the course!

"The 'Delitz' had a collision accident, it was the 'Bamler', and the 'Delitz' collided with the 'Bamler'!"

"The 'Ford' has hit the rocks! A large number of reefs have been found on the bottom of the sea!"

"The 'Royal Oak' has hit the rocks! The starboard side of our ship has been broken, and a large amount of seawater has poured in through the crack, and the hull of our ship is seriously tilted! Your Excellency, the 'Royal Oak' has requested that the ship be abandoned!"

In front of Clemenceau, the hoarse shouts of the commanders of the ships could be heard from the magic communication crystal.

Just when the Combined Fleet was wiped out in an instant, somewhere on the sea outside the 'Sea of Mist', after a burst of spatial fluctuations, a battleship as black as ink appeared on the sea.

Rhodes stood on the deck of the 'Ghost Ship', staring at the mist-shrouded sea, and his low, hoarse laughter came from the sea breeze: "Fortunately, I crossed the 'Misty Dead Sea' by mistake when I was young, and I am still familiar with its outer waterways!

......

"Did the nightmare of the Valencian Federation fleet end in the 'Sea of Mist'?" asked Old John, who was smoking a hookah on the Flying Osprey, staring at the story halfway through the story.

Old John continued to smoke the hookah, and when the smell of the hookah finally anesthetized his nerves, he calmed down and continued: "No, that's just the beginning of the nightmare!"

......

The Combined Fleet, which had lost its course, sailed through the storm in the 'Misty Dead Sea', when four warships had already run aground and sank. Instead of leaving the 'Sea of Mist', the Combined Fleet unknowingly sailed into the depths of the 'Sea of Mist'.

Just as Clemenceau was despairing, a sudden burst of singing came from the sea.

The singing is beautiful and lingering, and it is charming.

However, for Clemenceau, this song is not only a beautiful natural sound, but also a life-saving sound.

"Someone is singing! There must be an island in this neighborhood!" Clemenceau was overjoyed, as if a man on the verge of drowning had grasped the straw that saved his life. He gave the remnants of the fleet an order that he would regret for the rest of his life: "All warships, pay attention, immediately move in the direction of the song, we are saved!"

As a result, the remaining warships of the Combined Fleet finally did not have to continue in the 'Sea of Mist', and they adjusted their course according to the direction from which the song came.

However, to everyone's surprise, the fleet not only did not find the island, but entered a channel with an even worse environment.

The reef here is more dense than the rest of the 'Sea of Mist', and the winds and waves are more ferocious. In the sky, thunder roared, and huge lightning bolts crisscrossed like cobwebs, as if to herald the coming of the apocalyptic world.

"We're in the heart of the 'Sea of Mist'?" Clemenceau's face turned pale as he watched the apocalyptic scene outside the ship's cabin.

Only then did he realize that the song that came from the sea just now was not the song of the island's inhabitants at all, but the song of the legendary 'Sea of Mist' Siren seducing the voyagers.

It's a pity that he was famous as the 'Fox of the Sea', and in a hurry, he would commit such a fatal mistake!
