……

Uncle Kate looked at Luo Han's curious expression, smiled, and continued to explain.

"Because of the ability of the sacred tree to desalinate seawater, the salt after desalination of seawater accumulates to form salt lumps and accumulates on the seabed.

More of it flows to the surrounding seas, which also makes the concentration of salt in the surrounding seas very high. ”

"So, in fact, there are very few sea kings in the surrounding seas! Salt sharks generally live in the deep sea, and only come to the surface after they want to eat salt and touch us with salt. ”

Saying this, Uncle Kate began to solemnize.

"Salt sharks don't come up to shallow seas very often! It is also relative, and every few days they swim to the seabed to eat salt. ”

"So! All this time we were wounded in the fight with the salt shark.

Despite its small size, the salt shark is adaptable to swimming in the deep and shallow seas, and its skin is resistant to terror and is also very powerful.

And these also make the salt shark very fast, so every encounter is a fierce battle. ”

Uncle Kate looked at the pale green sea level with a sad expression, even with his care, the hunting team members were still injured from time to time.

"Then just focus on the salt sharks! And as long as we don't go to sea, the salt shark can't do anything about us! ”

And in this deep sea area, unlike on the seabed, you can still turn! Luo Han was a little puzzled.

Ask Uncle Kate his own questions.

"You look back at Tree Island, there are no islands around it! The seabed also expands outward for 10 kilometers and then falls in a straight line. ”

Uncle Kate looked back at Tree Island with some exclamation on his face.

Luo Han and the other hunting team members also turned their heads to look at the island around the tree!

"It's really true! It's like a stone pillar stuck in the sea! It's amazing! Never paid attention to this before! ”

Rhine exclaimed in amazement, excited! Apparently this is also the first time I have heard Uncle Kate say this.

It was also the first time that the other hunters had thought about what Tree Island would look like.

"It doesn't feel like an island...! Like one...! Luo Han looked in the direction of Tree Island and muttered to himself.

Uncle Kate glanced at Luo Han when he heard this, and actually thought of it!

"A long time ago, there were no islands here, until a big tree popped up from the surface of the sea!

The tree, which first came into contact with the sun, began to grow wildly, and within a few years, its root system branched all over a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

A huge island has been formed with a height of a thousand meters! ”

Speaking of which, Uncle Kate looked at everyone!

"This is the predecessor of Huanshu Island, and that uncle is the sacred tree on the island now."

Luo Han: "How did the rock cylinders around the sacred tree come from?" And the current Huanshu Island is not so big, right? Uncle Kate. ”

Luo Han asked from time to time! The other members of the hunting team also nodded their heads in confusion.

"Haha! Listen to me later. ”

Uncle Kate laughs! After that, his expression became solemn.

"Uncle of crazy expansion! That is, the sacred tree. At the time of growth to 100 km! One kind of fruit began to bear on the sacred tree, and that was the fish scale fruit!

The sacred tree had been growing under the sea before, and it had never borne fruit, so it was not known that as soon as the fish scale fruit ripened, it would emit an aura that could make the sea kings obsessed and crazy along the roots of the tree. ”

Uncle Kate narrated with a hint of fear, imagining the next picture.

"Due to its proximity to the windless zone, the smell of the fish scale fruit attracts countless large and super-large sea kings from the windless zone, ranging from 3,000 meters to tens of thousands of meters long.

After that, there was the frantic snatching of the Sea King, and even the body of the Divine Tree was hundreds of kilometers away, and it collapsed in front of this earth-destroying force. ”

"The Sacred Tree was directly destroyed, leaving only the main pole of the Divine Tree that we see now. The height was directly pressed to the bottom of the sea, and it was almost uprooted and destroyed. ”

Hearing this, Luo Han was a little surprised? The Sacred Tree was directly destroyed? How did Huanshu Island come about, and as soon as the sea surface is exposed, the fish scale fruit will attract super-large sea kings.

How to solve this problem? Luo Han is a little pitiful for the Divine Tree! I just want to show my head, shine on the sun, and think about light and action as a big tree, is it wrong? Is it wrong to want to touch the sun?

If you sea kings want to eat my fruit, eat it! Why do you want to destroy me?

Want! The sacred tree can speak, and there must be something to say so that you don't want to vomit and be unhappy!

Luo Han thought about it for the Divine Tree!

Continue to listen to Uncle Kate's following.

Uncle Kate: "After that, the sacred tree is like suddenly having wisdom!" It began to grow slowly, and at the same time, it also had an additional ability, which was the ability to desalinate seawater.

With this ability, the sacred tree began to release some of the minerals it had absorbed from under the seabed, forming a circular layer of rock around itself to protect itself. ”

Uncle Kate sighed a little at the magic of the sea! There is such a magical creature as the Sacred Tree.

After that, the sacred tree began to grow slowly towards the sea, and after hundreds of years, the sacred tree once again came to the sea level to soak up the sun.

It is also miraculous to say that when the sacred tree is at the bottom of the sea, it grows slowly. But when they reached the surface of the sea, they suddenly began to grow wildly, as if they had acquired some mysterious power. ”

Luo Han could imagine that kind of situation, as soon as the divine tree appeared on the surface of the sea, it was like time fast-forwarding, expanding rapidly.

I just don't know if it's going to be the same as before, or if it's the ending of being destroyed again by the Sea Kings.

"But this time! The Divine Tree didn't expand its body at any other rapid pace. Instead, he chose to use these fast-growing powers to absorb the minerals of the seabed.

Subsequently! It is the rock layer of the Ring Tree Island that you see now, which was built layer by layer by the Sacred Tree.

Each layer has the roots of the sacred tree fixed, thus forming the current pattern of nine layers around the tree island. ”

"After that, the fresh water formed by the desalination of the sacred tree was stored in the interior of the island, and the salt and some minerals were discharged from the island by the sacred tree, forming the current seabed."

I didn't expect that the island around the tree was formed in this way, and the rocks surrounding the sacred tree were actually built by the sacred tree to protect themselves!

Everyone's mouth is slightly open! looked at the Huanshu Island behind him in amazement, and his eyes revealed a trace of shock.

Hehe! Uncle Kate smiled, thinking that he had just heard the old man on the island talk about the origin of Tree Island.

And there's more to the Sacred Tree than that!

"In this way, as the sacred tree slowly grew, the island around the tree slowly grew larger. And the ships that crashed with the storm also brought some humans, which is the origin of the current inhabitants of the island.

Slowly, the sacred tree came to bear fruit again. ”

This time I shouldn't have been destroyed by the Sea Kings! Everyone thought in unison.

After all, the existence of the Tree Island proves that the Divine Tree has survived this crisis, and it just doesn't know how!

"Guess what, there will be no Sea Kings attack this time!" Uncle Kate said with a smile as he looked at everyone's focused expressions.

Yes! No! Everyone speculated.

"Yes! Uncle Kate! At this time, Cole's reckless voice came, startling everyone! Before he knew it, Cole was close to the surface.

It seems that Cole was also attracted by Uncle Kate's narration and couldn't help but ask!

"Haha!" Uncle Kate laughed and continued.

"No, nothing! Not a single sea king.

Because of the special smell of the ripeness of the fish scale fruit this time, it was blocked by the rock layer surrounding the sacred tree, and the roots of the sacred tree were all drilled into the rock layer and not exposed in the sea.

Therefore, the breath is not exposed in the sea, and naturally there is no arrival of the sea kings. ”

"Of course! If this is just the case, it can't completely isolate the attraction of the breath to the sea kings, after all, the breath of the fish scale fruit will also be emitted into the air, but compared to the sea, it is relatively small.

It can still attract some sea kings who occasionally emerge from the sea.

And the reason why none of the sea kings came was because the sacred tree desalination of the sea water and the discharge of salt. As the sacred tree grows larger, the more salt is discharged, which eventually increases the salinity of the sea water around the island, so that many marine creatures can't adapt to it, and they leave this sea area one after another, and the sea kings also leave."

"Therefore, after a long distance, the aura emitted by the Divine Tree Fish Scale Fruit is already undetectable, and naturally it can't attract the arrival of the Sea King."

I didn't expect it to be like this, could it be that the Divine Tree really has the wisdom to transform the surrounding sea fish into a high-concentration salt sea before it bears fish scale fruits, so that the sea kings can't adapt and leave.

I don't know if it will be like the flower-shaped island that Usopp was photographed by a bear that specializes in hunting sea kings.

Luo Han had some guesses in his heart, and he was also a little panicked, would the Divine Tree also fatten everyone up and eat it again!

Well! Probably not! After all, there are no mouths or anything like that on the island of the Sacred Tree.

Let's listen to what Uncle Kate has to say, don't scare yourself yet.
