Chapter 578: Sword and Storm

Luffy Sanji and the others are heading towards Shibami Island, and Nami, the second lieutenant on the island, has also met Zoro by chance.

Except for Usopp, who had already returned to his hometown to meet Keya, these people from the Straw Hats, after several twists and turns, finally collided with each other in completely different trajectories.

Meanwhile.

After flying over the Red Earth Continent and passing through a short period of windless belt, Xiao Luo, who was carrying Xia Nuo, finally came to the first half of the Great Voyage.

"There are about three thousand kilometers from the Kingdom of Alabastan."

Xia Nuo sat cross-legged on the broad eagle's back, took out the permanent pointer in his arms and looked at the general direction, then closed his eyes slightly and rested.

This permanent pointer to the island of Santin, where Alabastan is located, was collected by the people of the dark web in advance a few months ago, and for him, as one of the Four Emperors, this fact is not a matter of effort.

And this remaining distance of 3,000 kilometers, although it sounds quite far away, but with Xiao Luo's terrifying speed now, even if he does not fly with all his strength, he can still arrive before this evening.

If it goes well, he will be able to take Nico Robin with him tomorrow morning and embark on the way back, so that it will take less than ten days in total, and he will not be able to delay the battle plan against the Hundred Beast Pirates.

As for what doesn't go well......

Well, it's a pity, this is impossible, with him personally out of the horse, just a sand crocodile, there is no resistance at all.

"Wow!"

At this time, Xiao Luo suddenly let out an eagle's chirp, Xia Nuo opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and looked down, only to see that more than ten kilometers away from the southeast, a giant hurricane with a height of hundreds of meters suddenly appeared, raging on the surface of the sea.

Under the sweep of this terrifying hurricane, an apocalyptic ocean storm was set off in the sea along the way, and a medium-sized ship happened to pass by, and was swept into the edge of the storm, and was in a dilemma for a while.

"Pirate ships?"

Even at a distance of thousands of meters, Xia Nuo still caught a glimpse of the skeleton flag fluttering on the mast of the ship, he was suddenly too lazy to care, and when he was about to let Xiao Luo go around, he saw and heard the color sweeping, and suddenly noticed a certain figure on the bow of the ship, and suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Is that the guy......"

He looked interested, "That's right, counting the time, this group of people has almost stepped into the great voyage." ”

After a little groaning, he patted Xiao Luo's head and smiled slightly:

"Come on, it seems that this time, I really have to be nosy."

…………

In the midst of the howling wind.

The people on the deck of the pirate ship, already soaked by the huge waves that rushed in their faces, looked completely different from ordinary pirates, all of them were dressed in gray robes and wore crosses on their chests, and they looked more like religious clergy.

"Captain, we can't stay here any longer!"

The gray-robed pirate at the helm turned his head and let out a hoarse roar behind him, "The wind and waves are too great, let's let everyone hide in the cabin first, if we are caught in the center of the storm, we may not even be able to save our lives today!" ”

The figure known as the captain of the ship, with a slender and straight figure, flowing blonde hair, the iconic six vertical lines on his forehead, a black cross tattooed on the Adam's apple, and a cold sense of fear from his eyebrows to his entire facial features.

His name is Hawkins, from the North Sea, single-handedly founded the Hawkins Pirates, with the name of "magician", just two months after entering the great voyage from the North Sea, he has been regarded by the Navy as a new potential supernova, with a bounty of up to 200 million Bailey.

"There's no hurry."

Listening to the roar of his subordinates, Hawkins's eyes flashed slightly, and his expression was still calm as usual, "After I divination, I will make plans based on the situation." ”

It's all at this time, what are you still divining!

The gray-robed pirate at the helm couldn't cry or laugh, but seeing that Hawkins had already taken out the tarot card, he couldn't continue to say anything, after all, this was also the captain's usual style, and the old crew members who had followed them since the North Sea were almost all used to it.

More than a dozen tarot cards, in a strange and mysterious array, are suspended in front of Hawkins, and with the gentle movement of his fingertips, they are constantly changing the order of heads and tails.

"U-turn and return home, fatality, twenty-seven percent."

Looking at the hexagram that appeared on the tarot card, he muttered softly, his voice low and ethereal, as if coming from the clouds and mist.

"Hiding in the cabin, the mortality rate, thirty-five percent."

"Stay put, mortality, ...... percent Zero. ”

…………

His voice paused, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, and it was obvious that even he could not comprehend the result of the divination at this time.

And the rest of the crew around him couldn't believe it even more, and a cadre couldn't help but say: "Forget it, captain, this time there should be some problems with divination, don't hold on, let's go into the cabin and hide!" ”

"There have been precedents of failure in divination."

Hawkins shook his head slightly, his tone was still as flat as ever, "But such an extreme probability, if it is wrong, is too obvious, the god of divination will never do such a boring thing." ”

Airplanes!

At the moment when his words fell, a clear sound of a sword blade suddenly came from the sky, and immediately a vast and magnificent pale cyan sword suddenly fell, and in the unbelievable eyes of everyone, it slashed the terrifying hurricane in front of him in two.

The storm suddenly stopped, and almost instantly, the sea was calm again, and the dark clouds accumulated above also spread out to both sides, and the warm sunlight roamed the sea again through the gaps.

"Hey, hey, there's got to be a limit to joking......"

"I actually wiped out the hurricane with a single sword."

"That'...... Is that level of slashing still capable of humans......"

The pirates on the entire ship were in a state of stunned, and even Hawkins himself came back to his senses after a long time, looking up at the sky with a shocked face.

Laugh at!

In the sound of breaking wind from far and near, a black streamer flew by, landed on the deck of the bow of the ship, setting off a violent air current, and several pirates next to them were caught off guard, and immediately flew out screaming and fell into the sea.

They struggled to emerge from the sea and shouted for help to their friends on board, but by this time, the people on the deck had completely ignored them, and they looked at the man and the eagle who emerged from the black streamer, and raised their weapons as if they were facing a great enemy.

"I don't know what to do."

Seeing this, the man shook his head and sighed, but he didn't see him draw his sword, and all the pirates around him felt a flower in front of him, and the next moment he was horrified to find that the weapon in his hand had been broken in two.
