Chapter 122: The Isle of Lawlessness (11th Update)
Somewhere in the sea.
In the midst of the raging storm, the Ghost Shadow was sailing through the wind and waves, and occasionally a huge wave appeared, which was immediately crushed by a strange force, unable to shake the ship.
I don't know how long I sailed, the dark sky suddenly brightened, the storm disappeared without a trace in an instant, looking back, there was still a storm behind, and in the middle of this mild sea, there was a very obvious dividing line.
It is as if the sky and the sea have been split into two parts here.
Such a scenery is strange and shocking, but it is nothing to Rhodes and others, who have been sailing on the great voyage for a long time and have seen all kinds of abnormal weather, and they were only slightly surprised, and they recovered one after another.
"Well, I can see it already, Isle of Lawlessness."
Lafitte took the binoculars and looked straight ahead, clearly catching a black dot at the end of the line, which was an island.
After leaving the Isle of Spring, the Ghost Shadow sailed straight out of the waters of Oyiqi, and the next island chosen by Rhodes was the Isle of Lawlessness in the midst of the chaotic sea.
It's a large island, but it doesn't have any country, but is divided by many powers, and it's an island that is often infested with pirates and has all kinds of dark underground trades.
Rhodes stood calmly on the deck with his hands in his hands, looking at the black spot at the end of his sight, the wet deck beneath his feet, but his clothes showed no sign of getting wet, and all the rain slipped aside the moment it touched his body.
"Captain."
At this moment, Robin walked over and said in a deep voice to Rhodes: "There is news from Kaku's side, Hawkeye Mihawk, one of the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, appeared on the Isle of Lawlessness two days ago. ”
Hearing Robin's words, a trace of fluctuation finally flashed in Rhodes's eyes.
Originally, I chose the Isle of Lawlessness as the next island, not to go for any prey, but just to use it as a transit station, but I didn't expect to encounter the Nanaku Sea in this way.
And this Seven Martial Seas is also completely beyond Rhodes's goal at this stage, the world's number one swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk, even if his strength is doubled, I'm afraid he won't have much chance.
"I see."
Rhodes nodded, tossing the news aside, not going to bother.
Soon.
The Ghost Shadow approached the Isle of Lawlessness and docked on an uninhabited shore, where Rhodes, Lafitte, and Robin boarded the island, leaving Rowe and Siru to guard the ship.
"Robin come with me, Lafitte is free."
"Okay, Captain Rhodes."
Lafitte was used to this distribution of actions, and he turned around and disappeared into the island, while Rhodes took Robin and stepped into the island from the other direction.
Acting with Robin, of course, is not about doing anything special.
Compared to Lafitte, Robin's memory is not much to say, the eight-year-old doctor of archaeology has proven everything, and now she has written down almost all the pirates she can collect, with a bounty of more than 20 million Bailey, and she can basically quickly identify them when she encounters them.
If you want to compare with the identification function of a pacifist, of course, it can't be compared, but it's much better than Rhodes, who now only remembered the bounty of more than 100 million, the first half of the supernova bounty order, as for the rest, he didn't bother to remember it, and threw it all to Robin.
Whatever talent there is, it has to play a role, and Rhodes feels that he should develop all the talents in Robin very well.
"Isle of Lawlessness...... It's not very far from the Navy Headquarters and the Red Earth Continent, but I didn't expect such a chaotic place to exist. ”
After stepping into a street, feeling the dark and oppressive atmosphere around him, and the occasional dried blood stain on the side of the street, Robin lowered the brim of his hat a little and muttered.
"Because it's surrounded by the Storm Sea."
Rhodes spoke, saying that when they came before, the stormy sea they had passed through was a ring, and it happened to wrap the lawless island in the center.
Because of the high risk of passing through the stormy sea, even the navy's warships could capsize, so the navy and the government completely ignored the island.
In the dark.
The figures of Rhodes and Robin attracted a lot of attention.
To be precise, it is Robin's figure that has attracted a lot of attention, and when it comes to figure, Robin is almost impeccable now, with a slender waist and a grip, even if the brim of the hat blocks most of his face, he can't hide that temperament.
On this lawless island, except for the central bustling area, where you can see a beauty of Robin's level, it is almost impossible to appear in the fringe area, so when Robin and Rhodes walked on the street, they quickly attracted a lot of eyes in the dark.
"Where did you come from, so blatantly walking outside with a woman......"
"It seems like there are only two of them."
These eyes all reveal a bit of greed and lust.
This is the island of lawlessness, a place where even the navy and the government ignore it, where law and order do not exist at all, only guns and gunpowder!
There are only two kinds of people who dare to walk in such a remote area with a woman so blatantly, one is a person who is strong in his own strength and has the confidence to be fearless of everything, and the other is a rookie who was lucky enough to cross the stormy sea and fell on this island and knew nothing about the situation here.
So, which one exactly?
As Rhodes and Robin went deeper into the street, the stares gradually became more and more visible, but although they were full of greed and lust, they did not rush up in a swarm, but restrained, and they were still worried about the first situation.
Of course.
The last thing in this world is people who never think, and after Rhodes and Robin walked for a while, someone still came out of the darkness and followed behind the two.
There were three of them, all armed with muskets, and they slowly followed behind Rhodes and Robin, and at the same time raised the guns in their hands and pointed them at Rhodes' backs, with a sinister smile on their faces.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
No one spoke, and the three of them opened fire in a tacit understanding.
It's a stupid act to treat a guy of unknown origin like Rhodes, arrogantly jumping out and saying a bunch of nonsense, the most worthless thing here is human life, no matter who he is, kill him first, even if he is really capable, he will not give the other party a chance to show it.
However.
When the gunfire stopped and the smoke dissipated in the air, the sinister smiles on the faces of the three suddenly froze, because they saw that the bullets they fired did not leave a bloody hole on Rhodes' body, but hovered in mid-air the moment it touched Rhodes' body.
Rhodes didn't look back, and as he stepped forward, he raised his right hand slightly, snapping his fingers.
Smack!
When the sound of snapping fingers sounded in the silent and gloomy street, the bullet hovering in the air suddenly spun around and shot at the three men.
The blood splattered, and the three of them looked horrified, trying to make a sound, but they couldn't make any sound, and fell to the ground silently, and the blood slowly flowed out, spreading all the way through the street.
There was silence!
It wasn't until the backs of Rhodes and Robin disappeared at the end of the street that countless inhaling sounds were heard in the darkness, and the eyes hidden in the darkness were a little frightened.
"The bullets flew back, and there will be no mistakes......"
"Devil Fruit Ability!"
Although this is the lawless island on the Great Voyage, they are all the lowest level of the island, although they have seen the Devil Fruit ability many times, but a Devil Fruit ability is obviously not an existence they can provoke.
