254 Arrive at Fish-Man Island
I have to say that the encounter with Barrett evoked Roy's battle**.
Counting Barrett's upbringing, this guy was born purely to fight, and his goal in this life is also to surpass - surpass all the people or things that stand in his way, anyone stronger than him.
Barrett's target was originally Roger, but after Roger's death, it became a demon slaying order.
His eagerness to challenge the Demon Slayer Command ignited Roy's enthusiasm, and he admitted to working with Roy.
It's better to take this opportunity to make a good mess of him.
With this in mind, Roy conceived a plan in his mind, how to act, how to make Barrett encounter the Demon Slayer Order, and how to cause the Draconians to suffer.
After communicating with Barrett and Festa for a few days, and after finalizing the plan, the three of them went to the Chambord Islands.
The Chambord Islands are one of the liveliest places in the world, home to countless pirates, merchants, and bounty hunters.
After all, it's the way to the New World.
Pirates from all over the world must pass through this place if they want to get a better status, get money, or everything else.
Not to mention the merchants, they are there where there are many people.
As for the bounty hunters, the same principle is the same, where there are pirates, there are them.
At the same time, the Chambord Islands are also a place where the Draconians often appear because of their large population and proximity to the holy land of Mary Joya.
The reason why Roy chose this place is also because of the idea of nostalgia.
Last time, he defected to the navy here and was chased by Admiral Yellow Ape, but this time, he still set his sights here.
made a lot of trouble in the old place, so he lived up to it.
I want to pick up all the face I lost last time.
"As we agreed."
Roy said to Festa: "Let's use Ralph Drew's eternal pointer to lure pirates into the Chambord Islands, and then you announce that you have captured Barrett and will auction him off as a slave......"
"Are you sure this will attract the Draconians?" Festa hesitated.
There was nothing wrong with using Ralph Drew's Eternal Pointer as bait, the problem was that he was going to auction Barrett as a slave......
Thinking that Barrett's hands and feet were shackled by the sea tower stone, and he was still wearing the sea tower stone collar bomb around his neck, and Festa was leading Barrett like a dog, he was full of worries: "If we can't attract the Celestial Dragons like this, won't everything we have to do be in vain?" ”
It doesn't matter if it's wasted!
If he doesn't achieve his goal, Barrett is defeated once like a dog, so won't he be unlucky?
"Don't worry, I have my way."
Roy nodded: "With Barrett's identity as a member of Roger's One Piece, plus Ralph Drew's eternal pointer, no one will give up such a treasure, including the Draconians." ”
"Okay."
Festa remains worried.
As for Barrett, although their plan had a part of turning him into a slave, he didn't care about it.
First of all, it's fake.
Secondly, it can help him achieve his goal of fighting against the Demon Slayer Order.
Ultimately, this can help everyone present achieve their goals.
Summary: He accepted.
……
The trio stayed on board for a few days.
In the process, the two heard Roy contact several people.
Although they didn't know the identities of the phone bugs, they could guess from that simple conversation that the identities of these people were not simple, and they couldn't help but have a lot of confidence in choosing to cooperate with Roy.
Especially Festa, even if he didn't know the identity of the other side of the phone, he could roughly guess the role of those people, and the whole person turned over at once, as if he saw a marathon runner at the finish line, and the lost spirit suddenly re-raised.
At this time, they are in the New World, and to reach the Chambord Islands, they must either abandon ship and cross the Holy Land of Maryjoy, or pass through Fish-Man Island.
There is no doubt that with their status, it is impossible to return to the Chambord Islands in paradise through Mary Joya, and naturally choose Fish-Man Island.
Speaking of Fish-Man Island, the three people present are no strangers.
Barrett and Festa have debuted for many years, although the former has been in prison for more than 20 years, but he has followed Roger, is a member of Roger's Pirates, and has seen a lot of wonderful things with Roger, Ralph Drew is not a secret in his eyes, and Fish-Man Island is nothing.
However, for Roy, he is really curious about Fish-Man Island.
Before he defected from the navy, he arrived in the present world from the paradise through the holy land of Mary Joy, and after defecting, he was active in the new world all year round, and basically had no chance to return to the paradise.
In other words, although he is no stranger to Fish-Man Island, this is actually the first time he has arrived on Fish-Man Island.
"To get to Fish-Man Island smoothly, we not only have to follow the right path, but we also have to coat the boat."
Seeing that Roy was interested in this, the human-like Festa elaborated: "If we follow the wrong path to break into Fish-Man Island, the coating will automatically peel off and merge with the shield on the island, and some ships will fall to the ground in the middle layer of air and fall to pieces. Even if they succeed in breaking through the shield, most of the intruders and ships will be swept away by the sea water inside the shield. ”
After a pause: "As for the latter, it is better to understand, so that we can sail smoothly in the deep sea, and also so that we can breathe freely." ”
Roy nodded in understanding.
Although he has some understanding of these things, after Festa's explanation, his own thinking is clearer, and it can be regarded as quite rewarding.
Immediately after, under the leadership of Festa, the three of them found an excellent membrane craftsman in the New World Sea near Fish-Man Island.
After finishing the coating, the three of them set off again, sank into the deep sea with the ship, and arrived at Fish-Man Island.
The process went smoothly, and without Roy's knowledge, the original plane was as unlucky as Luffy and them, and they almost capsized halfway through.
Although Fish-Man Island is located beneath the deep sea, it also has a sky and clouds.
Because the giant tree "Sunny Tree Eve" that grows near Fish-Man Island can transmit sunlight from the ground to Fish-Man Island, the deep sea of Fish-Man Island has a change of sunlight and day and night, and local residents even describe this phenomenon as "the blessing of the sun".
"Fish-Man Island is located 10,000 meters deep in the sea. As long as we re-coat the ship on Fish-Man Island and enter the correct channel, we can surface and reach the waters of the Chambord Islands. ”
Festa said to Roy.
Roy looked at the sunlight overhead, squinted his eyes, and sighed at the wonder of the world.
Barrett didn't care about any of this, and stood in the bow of the boat, drinking in a daze.
The two didn't take him to heart either.
Suddenly.
Swish!
Barrett's eyes flashed.
I saw that not far away, a sharp trident, like an arrow from the string, flew towards the ship where Roy and the others were.
The embossed halberd tip shone brightly, exuding a sharp and terrifying aura.
