The sun is setting in the west.

The turbulent currents converged in front of the upside-down mountain, and the sea was not calm, and even the three naval warships, which were seven or eight miles apart, were constantly swaying slightly in the rolling waves.

Smoker stood on the deck, silently listening to Dusty's report. It was getting dark soon, so there were not a few ships that wanted to pinch this point and pass through Upside Down Hill earlier, and in just a few moments, the navy had already searched two more fleets.

"I said, Mr. Smoker......"

After the report, Dusty hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but speak: "It's night, should we go back to Rogue Town early to rest, I've been busy all day today, and I just saw a lot of soldiers, and they all looked a little complaining......"

"Complaining?"

Smoker snorted coldly, squinted his eyes and said: "Hmph, what do they have to complain about, they usually cut corners one by one in training, and you push me when it is your turn to be in the field, and it has been three months since I came to the East China Sea, and the gap between this group of people and the elite soldiers we brought from the headquarters, haven't you seen it yet?" ”

"Yes...... They can't be blamed for that, right? Dusty frowned, "After all, this is only the East China Sea, and the environment and resources can't be compared to the Great Voyage, right?" It's normal to have differences in physical fitness. ”

"Physical fitness is only one aspect, what is more important is perseverance and faith." Smoker shook his head slightly, and said lightly: "Dusty, you have to know, this is why the two ......"

Phew!

At that moment, an eagle's roar suddenly came from above the sky, interrupting him, and Smoker frowned and looked up to the sky, only to see a black shadow flash in the red-hot fiery clouds.

"Black Falcon......"

Smoker was slightly stunned, his eyes flashed with a different color, as if he was remembering something, and then, when he saw that the black shadow swooped down from the sky like a streamer, and fell towards a ship of the Drummond caravan in the distance, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he roared angrily:

"Dusty!"

"Yes, sir!"

Dusty was taken aback, and although he didn't know why, he hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Order down, all warships, give me all U-turns, full speed ahead!" Smoker snorted coldly, "Intercept the Drummond family's caravan before they start to climb the Upside Down Mountain!" ”

"Yes! Sir! Dusty answered loudly without hesitation, but then a wave of confusion appeared on his face and he asked in a low voice, "But...... Mr. Smoker, didn't you say before that we had better not offend this big family in the East China Sea too much, why ...... now?"

"Normally, this is definitely the case, but now, it's different......"

Smoker didn't look at Dusty, his eyes kept staring at the caravan that was getting farther and farther away, his eyes were full of coldness, "Our East China Sea sword hero Xia Nuo, but he is hiding in those merchant ships......"

"Huh...... Xano? ”

Dusty was stunned, her delicate little face was full of disbelief, and she hesitated for a while, as if she wanted to ask something more, but in the end she didn't say anything, gritted her teeth, and hurriedly turned around and went to the communication room.

………………

Knock, knock, knock.

A gentle knock on the door suddenly sounded, waking up Xia Nuo, who was a little fascinated by reading the logbook by the bed, he didn't think much about it, he quickly got out of bed and opened the door, and after seeing the person in front of him, a smile appeared on his face:

"What's the matter, Uncle Takemura, what's the matter?"

It was Wu Cun at the door, so many days have passed, the injury on his leg has basically recovered, and the bandage has been removed, and at this moment he has a smile on his face, and said gently:

"It's nothing, it's just that in a little while, you're about to start climbing the Upside Down Mountain, if I'm not mistaken, Lord Charno, you're going to the Great Voyage for the first time, do you want to come and have a look on the deck?"

"Huh? Have you already reached the bottom of the Upside Down Mountain? Xia Nuo was a little surprised, and after thinking about it, he agreed with a slight smile, "Okay, anyway, it is estimated that the wind and waves will be quite strong later, and I will not be able to sit still in the cabin." ”

After taking Lake Toya from the bedside, Xia Nuo followed Takemura all the way downstairs, and coincidentally, as soon as he got out of the hatch, he saw Xiao Luo carrying a big fish falling from the sky and landing on the deck, and then came to him with a happy face.

Xia Nuo ignored it, and went to the railing at the front of the deck with Takemura, and sure enough, as Takemura had said before, at this moment the caravan was completely under the majestic upside-down mountain, and the water on both sides became more and more turbulent, and finally converged in front of the mountain, enveloping upwards, forming a strange sea current that flowed upward.

Looking around, all the sails of the caravan were full, and the people on board were basically outside the cabin, everyone was busy and hurried, making final preparations for the upcoming upside-down mountain.

However, at this very moment.

Thundered!

A series of loud roars suddenly came from the rear, and the people on the ship were stunned and looked back in confusion.

The next moment, everyone was horrified to see that more than a dozen black cannonballs roared from the air and smashed into the sea near the caravan, setting off layers of air waves and causing several merchant ships to jolt again.

"It's the Navy, the Navy is firing at us!" Someone shouted in alarm.

"Nope! It's not a gunshot, it's a warning! Takemura also had a solemn face, but he was much calmer than ordinary people, and quickly discerned the situation, "The navy deliberately fired artillery on both sides, trying to force us to stop!" ”

Xia Nuo didn't speak, but frowned and looked at the three warships chasing in the distance, and a trace of bad anticipation gradually rose in his heart.

Sure enough, the next moment, the voice that was amplified by the megaphone several times suddenly floated over from the side of the warship, it was a middle-aged man's voice, extremely rough, and every word was extremely clear:

"The Drummond family caravan on the other side, we are the East China Sea Rogue Town Navy, and now we issue the following announcement, the sea thief who has offered a reward of 89 million Bailey, 'Wind Sword Hero' Xia Nuo, is very likely to hide in your caravan! For unnecessary risks, please stop the ship immediately, cooperate with the navy, and accept the inspection! ”

"Repeat! For unnecessary risks, please stop the boat immediately and cooperate with the inspection! ”

………………

On the deck, the originally noisy noise gradually quieted down at this moment.

Countless eyes full of shock converged towards the center of the deck, and finally all focused on Xia Nuo's body.

Goo-dong.

The silence on the ship was broken by the sound of a young escort swallowing saliva, and he looked at Xia no in a daze, with a look of disbelief on his face:

"Summer ...... Lord Charno...... Is it a pirate? ”

"And it's a sea thief with a bounty of 89 million Bailey?"

"This ...... How so? ”

"Is the Navy lying? Or is it Lord Xano who deceived us?! ”

At this moment, not only him, but all the crew couldn't help but question, and after seeing that Xia Nuo had been silent and did not answer, they looked at each other, their faces all showed panic, and they subconsciously retreated towards the periphery.
