Chapter 135: Crossing the Red Earth Continent (Asking for Recommendations and Asking for Monthly Tickets)
"So! Brothers! We're leaving! ”
Facing the scorching sun, Luffy raised his arms and shouted at Robin and Brooke.
"Luffy~The situation of the Great Route is more complicated, I still need to take another look at the chart and make calculations..."
Although Robin couldn't bear to interrupt Luffy's passion, the truth was that they couldn't sail rashly.
"Really?" Luffy was slightly puzzled, and then continued indifferently, "It's okay, we won't go to the windless belt anyway..."
"Huh?"
Robin and Brooke were stunned for a moment.
The only way from the Great Voyage to the East China Sea is through the windless zone, and this road can be taken.
But looking at Luffy's appearance, could it be that there is some magical means?
"Alright, alright, let's get on board! We're leaving! ”
Luffy didn't explain anymore, but just smiled and urged the two of them.
Although they were still confused, the two of them still obeyed the orders and boarded the ship.
"So! Uncle Kurokas, we're leaving! Luffy waved his hand and shouted loudly at Kulokas, who was still shocked by the sudden disappearance of Rab.
"Huh? Oh! ... Goodbye..."
Kulokas replied with a stunned wave of his hand.
Luffy jumped into the sea with a thud.
After a while, the sea near the shore gradually boiled, hot bubbles bubbled, and wisps of steam visible to the naked eye slowly rose.
Robin and Brooke stared at each other with wide eyes, as if to ask, "Are you the same as I thought", and then nodded in unison, their eyes filled with incredulity.
The ship shook suddenly, and Robin and Brooke each grabbed a corner of the hull and secured themselves firmly to the ship.
The whole huge ship magically floated upward.
Luffy grabbed the ship with one hand and found the center point with the other, and spewed a mighty flame under him, and the blazing energy scalded and twisted the air around him.
Kurokas took off his eyes, wiped his shirt, put it on again, and muttered silently, "I'm really old, I've started hallucinating lately... Hehe... Heh..."
Luffy, who had already flown into the air, could no longer hear his muttering, and shouted loudly to Kurokas, who was already a small dot below, "Goodbye!" Uncle! I'll come back to see you in a few years! ”
After saying that, the flame in Luffy's hand suddenly flickered again, bursting out with even greater energy.
Propelled by the flames, the ship quickly flew towards the top of the Red Earth Continent.
The Red Earth Continent, surrounded by the world of pirates, has a tall mountain shape, and is the most extensive land area in the world, with a large number of "world nobles" Draco living above.
Since the adventurer Fischer Tiger climbed the Red Earth Continent with his bare hands, broke into the Holy Land of the World Government Headquarters, and made a big fuss, freeing thousands of slaves of different races who were imprisoned, the World Government began to realize that the defense of the Red Earth Continent was weak, and secretly recruited troops in the world again, and established the world's first army unit with land as the main theme.
Although there were soldiers on the Red Earth Continent in the past, these soldiers were all classified as subdivisions of the navy.
It is usually near the fixed trade routes established by the government, mainly to prevent some pirates or unscrupulous people from launching attacks on passing merchants, and to collect some business taxes by the way.
After the Fischteg incident, the government began to spend huge sums of money at any cost, recruiting a large number of laborers, and strengthening the Red Continent throughout the whole process under the desperate processing and increasing points.
Army divisions after army units were soon laid out in every corner of the Red Continent.
The two headquarters of the army were set up on the left and right of Upside Down Hill to the Holy Land. With Mary Joy as the center, there was an army division at fixed intervals.
The world government even ordered the army units to guard day and night and strictly guard.
The army division manages the Red Earth Continent in batches and sections to ensure that similar incidents do not happen again.
At this time, in the absence of outstanding candidates, the commander-in-chief of the whole army, who temporarily served as the field marshal, a very strong old man with a broad chest, yellow-brown skin, and white hair and beard in the shape of the word "mountain", was sitting in the office at the end of the upside-down hill listening to his cronies who had just attended the government's all-army meeting and reporting the contents of the meeting.
"The report to the marshal, the latest dispatch of the government points out: The whole army is required to comprehensively strengthen training and preparation for war, thoroughly implement the government's thinking on strengthening the army, implement the most suitable military strategic principles under the current situation, select suitable candidates for field marshals and army generals as quickly as possible, and if necessary, transfer candidates from other armies.
At the same time, we must not forget our original intention and strictly guard all corners of the Red Earth Continent..."
"Okay, okay..."Sora rubbed his temples, suddenly interrupted him, sighed, and said with some worry: "How can a strong person at the level of a general appear so easily, and the five old stars don't know how to consider the actual situation?" ”
"Marshal, in my opinion, it is likely that the government is asking you to transfer some men from the navy in the name of the commander-in-chief of the whole army, so..."
"It's even more impossible! There are so many cunning villains on the sea, and the navy already lacks high-end combat power, so how can it be deployed! Sora interrupted him directly and said.
As a former marshal, Sora knows the pain of the Navy very well.
"What's more, the army doesn't have so many enemies to defend at all, why is the government in such a hurry..."
"But..."
The empty cronies were about to say something more when a shrill siren suddenly sounded.
Empty frowned, stood up without saying a word, and asked as he walked out of the office, "What's going on?"
Walk! Let's check it out! ”
...
...
"Wow! It turns out that this is what the Red Continent looks like above... I don't know... These armies ... What exactly is it protecting? Luffy muttered as he looked at the base in front of him and the large number of soldiers in the base.
On the Red Earth Continent, most of the Draconians are concentrated in the Holy Land. Mary Joy, most of the rest of the city is desolate, but the government has to use such a large position.
It seems that the Red Clay Continent is not as simple as imagined...
Luffy, who was holding the ship, slowly landed in front of the gate of a base, put the ship aside, and prepared to rest for a while.
From Luffy's departure in the Twin Straits to the current summit of the Red Clay Continent, although a total of three hours have passed.
But Luffy's spirit was still a little tired, and he was going to go to the red clay road to take a rest and slow down, but he didn't expect him to happen to break into the general base of the government army.
The gates of the base opened, and a team of well-trained soldiers ran out of the base, quickly surrounding Luffy and his ship.
From the middle of the soldiers, a few figures slowly walked out, wearing a cloak of justice similar to the navy, but with a more calm aura, slowly walking towards Luffy.
One of them, with a terrifying momentum, made the ship creak and the ground was dusty and foggy under the surging momentum.
"Luffy!"
"Mr. Luffy!"
Seeing this formation, Brooke and Robin also quickly jumped off the ship, and quickly came to Luffy's side and confronted the army in front.
"It's okay... Don't worry..."Luffy was very calm, and turned back to the two partners to reassure.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass on the Army Headquarters? ”
Sora walked directly towards Luffy and the others with an unparalleled momentum.
In the world of pirates, Karp is not the only character who does not age with age.
Rumble!
Luffy's overlord color also poured out, confronting the momentum of the air, making a violent sound, but after that, there was no movement.
The two tacitly retracted their momentum.
Luffy took a step forward and said calmly, "Your Majesty's Seven Martial Seas Starry Sky Pirates have applied to cross the Red Earth Continent and enter the East China Sea. ”
