Chapter 168: On the Island
Of course, anticipation is anticipation, and there is a problem in front of us that still needs to be solved. Fastest updates
"Hey, where's Lord Xano?"
Rump looked at the crowd gathered on the deck, and after the bone ox had identified the small island garden in the distance just now, basically all the crew members had come out, but there was no one to be seen, and he wondered, "What's the situation, hasn't he come back yet?" ”
"Nope." Ivy who was not far away heard it, shook her head, and immediately smiled indifferently: "Isn't this normal, as long as the climate is good these days, he will ride Xiao Luo to fly nearby, well, it seems that he wants to train Xiao Luo and let him get used to his Devil Fruit ability." ”
"That's true, but he usually came back in less than half an hour the other day." Rump scratched his hair, "But today he went out early in the morning, and it's been more than two hours now, and he hasn't come back yet, so it can't be that something happened, right?" ”
"Yes, Lord Xiano, he is alone after all, if he encounters any pirates, it will be troublesome......" Rose next to him also said with some concern.
"Trouble? Come on, have you forgotten who that guy is? Kidd sneered and said disdainfully, "Even if you run into any pirates, it's the other party who is unlucky, right?" ”
"Uh......"
Everyone was stunned when they said this, and then they found that they really couldn't refute anything......
Phew!
At this moment, an eagle's cry suddenly sounded from above the clouds, piercing through the clouds and cracking stones, echoing on the sea, piercing their eardrums for a while, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
When I looked up, I saw a black shadow appear in the clouds, and then like a black lightning, it shot downward, and in an instant, it pierced through the sky hundreds of meters long, and finally landed firmly on the bow of the ship.
A majestic and vigorous black falcon suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"What the hell is coming from......"
Ignoring the falcon, which had been getting more and more frightened recently, everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the black-haired boy who jumped off the eagle's back, and Ivy turned into the cabin after noticing Xiano's wet hair, and after a while, came out with a hot towel and handed it to him.
"Thank you."
Xia Nuo smiled and took the towel and wiped the water from his hair, while Ivy looked at him with some curiosity, scratched her chin and said, "Where did you go, it seemed to be cloudy for a while just now, and it didn't rain, why did you get wet like this?" ”
"Don't talk about it." Hearing this, Xia Nuo suddenly pursed his lips, revealing a look of gloom, and glared back at Xiao Luo, "This stupid bird was too excited, and he didn't know where to look, so he plunged into the dark clouds, if I didn't react quickly, my whole body would be soaked!" ”
"Poof~"
Ivy burst out laughing, then blinked and asked, "Then how did you know you're back?"
"I didn't fly far, I heard the shouts of the bone cow in the air, this guy's voice is really loud."
Xia no looked at the island that appeared on the horizon in the distance, "What, is that the little garden?" ”
"Yes, Charlotte-sama!" The bone cow above hurriedly spoke, and said with some excitement, "Captain Brocky, and Captain Qingli, they are up there!" ”
"I see."
Xia Nuo nodded, he looked at the island for a while, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said with some seriousness: "Dramp, speed up, go around from the east side and go ashore, don't go over from the west side!" ”
"Huh? Why," Dramp, who was at the helm in front of him, was stunned, "in that case, it would take a big circle." ”
"It's okay, I'll let you go around." Xia Nuo said, "If you have a specific reason, you will explain it later, and then go ashore first." ”
"Oh."
Although there were still some doubts, out of trust in Chano, Dramp did not hesitate to turn the rudder to the right at the first moment, and suddenly, the direction of the ship changed, and he rode the wind and waves towards the small garden.
In the absence of other references, it is difficult to accurately estimate the distance above the sea, so even if the small garden was already in sight, it took more than half an hour for the ship to dock on the shore.
As soon as it landed, the boat did not stop, and before anyone else could react, the bone cow had already jumped up with excitement, and then with a bang, his whole body fell heavily on the island, splashing a lot of dirt, and even the surrounding bushes were unfortunately damaged, and fell down in a swoop.
"Hold the grass, you think you're Gaia......"
This posture of the debut immediately made Xia Nuo show a little pain, and almost immediately, he thought of this famous earth destroyer, if he landed like this a few more times, it was estimated that he could directly turn the forest into a plain......
But it's no wonder that the bone cow, although the ship of the Don Quixote family is indeed very large, but it is still too unfriendly for the giant clan, these days when the sea is drifting, the bone cow in addition to sleeping, basically keep sitting or squatting posture and dare not move, pee is to be carefully moved to the stern, for fear that the sea breeze is big, something will happen that is not good for the rest of the crew......
"Let's go, let's go ashore together!"
After coming back to his senses, Xia Nuohaha greeted with a smile, and then jumped from the bow of the boat first, landing firmly on the ground, as for the rest of the people, most of them also used this method, only the physical strength was weak, such as Ivy, put down the soft ladder, and carefully climbed down from it.
In the end, it was Kira who was in charge of the finish, although this kid was younger than Kidd, but he was much more reassuring to do things, and the process of anchoring and closing the sails was quickly completed, and within two minutes, everyone met on the shore, and then walked together towards the center of the island.
Walking in the front is naturally the bone cow, this guy is in a period of excitement, humming an unknown ballad in his mouth, the melody is quite bold and beautiful, but unfortunately it seems to be in the language of Elbaf Village, and they can't hear a single word of the lyrics under Xia Nuo.
All the way down, surrounded by lush forests, towering ancient trees can be seen everywhere, vines and roots are entwined, and the moisture is deep, as if everything here has not been changed for a long time, and even the smell of the earth has a slight ancient connotation.
The appearance is completely different from the outside world, which instantly makes everyone's curiosity burst, stop and go, and look around from time to time, if it is not for the big man with a bone cow in front of him to open the way, I am afraid that I can trip over the vines eight times after walking ten steps.
"Look, what is this!"
There was a sudden exclamation on the left, and everyone turned their heads to look over, only to see Daniel holding a huge mushroom and walking over with some difficulty.
"It's huge!"
Everyone was shocked, the mushroom in front of them was at least a meter high, even bigger than an umbrella, almost covering Daniel's whole person, Kidd couldn't help but clapped his fists and said: "At least twenty or thirty pounds, it must taste good, just a little hungry, how about we roast it and eat it!" ”
"Colorful and poisonous." Kira in the back whispered, "Kidd, when did you become a guy who only knows how to eat?" ”
Kidd was suddenly disinterested, he turned his head to glare at his younger brother, who was more and more fond of mending knives, and snorted, "What do you know? Which of the powerhouses in this world is not the pot-bellied king? Can you get stronger by eating a little less? ”
On the other side, young Rose also made a discovery under a nearby tree, it was an abandoned honeycomb, about the size of a bathtub, there were no bees in it, but there was still a lot of honey left, which immediately caused everyone to exclaim, and then unceremoniously divided it.
"This is the purest primeval forest, even the largest forest I have seen in the Kingdom of Goa, it can't compare to this place."
Ivy, who had been carefully observing her surroundings, looked at the sides with some surprise while eating the honey she had shared, and said, "The World Government has been established for so many years, not to mention the New World, it is really surprising that there are such unexplored islands here near the starting point of the Great Voyage." ”
"It's normal, the sea will always be more difficult to grasp than the land, and if the government's control is really that strong, there won't be so many pirates on the sea." Xia Nuo, who was walking in the back position, said a little absently.
Although it was only mentioned in the comics, he still knew something about the situation of the small garden, there were even 100-meter-high dinosaurs on this island, which was clearly equivalent to the climate of ancient times, what is it to have such a big mushroom and honeycomb?
Well, there seem to be a lot of dangers on the island, so would you like to warn everyone?
When he thought about it, he suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the light around him, as if something was blocking the sunlight in the sky, and then a fishy wind came from behind, which was disgusting.
"What's that?"
Not only him, but the rest of the people also noticed that something was wrong, and they all turned around, but when they saw the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but be startled.
A huge dark blue figure suddenly appeared in front of him, it was a huge saber-toothed dragon, seven or eight meters tall, there was no doubt that it was this big guy who covered the light below.
"Fear ...... Dinosaur?! ”
For a moment, everyone except Xia Nuo showed an expression of disbelief, and Kidd was even more shocked that the goggles fell off, "There is still such a thing?" ”
"Ah, what do you really want to do......" Looking at the bloodthirsty appearance of this saber-toothed dragon when he saw food, Xia Nuo was also a little surprised, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.
As soon as everyone looked at it, this saber-toothed dragon suddenly opened its bloody mouth, revealing a hideous expression, its sharp fangs reflected a chilling luster in the sunlight, and in just the next moment, it had already jumped out violently, roared, and pounced towards the group!
Roar!
The roar was deafening, and everyone woke up in an instant, and they remembered that there was a big guy eyeing them in front of them.
Daniel and Rose glanced at each other quite tacitly, and then at the same time pulled out the long sword from their waists to meet it, the next moment, the cold light flashed, the sound of the blade entering the flesh came, the figures of the two and the sabertooth dragon staggered, stopped a few meters away, and behind them, the saber-toothed dragon that was still fierce just now was already screaming at this moment, and fell to the ground with a bang, the huge body was motionless, obviously completely out of life.
"That's it!"
The two sword-wielding guys stood there in a slashing position for a moment before high-five each other with a bit of a stinking fart, then withdrew their blades and walked back grinning.
"Not bad."
Looking at the two swordsmen who easily eliminated this saber-toothed dragon, Xia Nuo nodded with some relief, in fact, he was about to draw his sword just now, but when he saw Daniel and Rose seemed to be moving, he stopped, wanting to see how the swordsmanship of these two guys was.
And the result is also obvious, the bounty of more than 10 million yuan for the two people is there after all, whether it is the speed or strength of the sword, it is considered good, Xia Nuo estimates that if he kills a hundred Klo by himself, he may not be able to beat these two people in swordsmanship.
As for Daniel and Rose, after hearing Xia Nuo's simple compliment, their old faces immediately turned red, and they scratched their heads a little shyly, which made Xia Nuo suddenly a little confused, and thought that there was some ulterior relationship between these two people.
In fact, how did he know that as a swordsman, he, a swordsman who can already cut steel and iron, and release sword qi, has become an insurmountable mountain in the hearts of these two people, coupled with the previous life-saving grace, Daniel and Ross almost regard him as an idol, and it is naturally quite normal to get such a compliment from an idol, and it is naturally quite normal to have such a big reaction.
"Go ahead, make a mark here, and when we wait for it to come back, you can use this dinosaur as a food reserve later."
Looking at the dinosaur corpse that fell on the ground, Xia Nuo gave a faint order, and then looked at the people who were relaxed, and reminded again, "Everyone be careful, this kind of dinosaur is okay, we can still face it, what is really difficult is all kinds of mosquitoes, if it is ordered, it will be troublesome." ”
He said this naturally because he remembered the Straw Hat Pirates in the original book, where Nami was bitten by mosquitoes and infected with a tropical virus, and had to deviate from the route to find a doctor, and at this time, the situation of the Xano strangers was actually somewhat similar, they were all short of doctors, although it was said
The rest of the people nodded subconsciously, indeed, the climate here is too suitable for the survival of mosquitoes from all walks of life, and the animals and plants on the island are relatively large, if you are bitten by a large mosquito, then you really want to cry without tears.
