Chapter 129: Sailing
In the silent windless zone, a few seagulls flapped their wings and flew by, lighting up a few ripples on the deserted sea.
A ship that resembles a naval warship sails unscrupulously in this calm and vast windless belt.
The sea floor stone device at the bottom of the ship makes it impossible for the sea kings in the deep sea to feel the ship on the surface at all.
From time to time, large schools of fish would glide out of the water excitedly as if they had found their own kind, and sprinkle a string of colorful crystal dew in the air.
On the ship's first class, Brooke was wearing a white corset trench coat, and the edge of the trench coat was tattooed with a circle of black strange lines.
The empty eyes have been staring in a certain direction in the distance, as if something is attracting him over there, and the deep and bottomless eyes don't know what kind of thoughts they contain.
Suddenly, Brooke turned his head as if he had realized something.
"Brooke, what are you looking at?"
Luffy, who had just come out of the cabin, was lazily soothing his body, and at the same time walked towards Brooke curiously, and asked curiously, "Why do you get up so early, Brooke?" ”
"Ah~ It's nothing, Mr. Luffy...
Some can't sleep..."
Brooke's face seemed to be a little excited, but he was used to maintaining the image of a gentleman, and he tried to restrain his impatience, and his tone was half a tone higher than usual, and he still said slowly to Luffy.
Luffy smiled slightly, yawned, leaned his back against the railing, looked sideways at Brooke, and said, "Is it going to start a new journey that makes you a little excited and can't sleep, or do you want to meet Rab soon?" ”
"Uh..."
The hand gripping the railing twitched slightly, and Brooke's eyes seemed to moisten a little.
After a while, with a nostalgic tone, he looked at the sea in the distance and said, "Yes... It's been a long time... I don't know, if he's okay..."
Thin tears accumulated on Brooke's eyes, as if they were about to fall if they shook slightly.
"Do you want to go see him first..."
"No need..."
Brooke immediately shook his head and said firmly.
They had other things to do, and Brooke didn't want to delay the team's trip because of his own business.
He knew that if he spoke, Mr. Luffy would not hesitate to choose to help him.
Therefore, he is also willing to endure for Luffy again.
"Actually, it's nothing... We still have plenty of time..."
Luffy continued to persuade, looking up at the sky, as if calculating how much time he had left...
Moreover, they didn't have anything important anyway, and Luffy, who had a meeting with the Seven Martial Seas some time ago, shirked it on the grounds that he was unwell.
But he heard what Moria said, and Karp angrily pushed the navy that was blocking the way, directly smashed the door of the conference room, and smashed the iron fist directly on the table, so fierce that the six sea pirates were a little scared.
Ignoring the obstruction of the Warring States, he directly shouted that he would teach him a good lesson.
Thinking of Moria laughing and telling himself about his grandfather's troubles, Luffy's face couldn't help but look embarrassed again.
There are still about ten months before Ace goes to sea, and now this ship is a special warship that Luffy bought from the Navy in the capacity of the Seven Martial Seas.
Although old-fashioned, the speed of sailing is also far from being comparable to those of ordinary sailing boats.
Since there is plenty of time, it is better to fulfill Brooke's wish first.
What's more, Luffy also wants to meet this cute big whale...
"Mr. Luffy..."
Listening to Luffy's words, Brooke's heart seemed to be a little shaken, and his hand bones tightly grasped the rail, as if he was nervous, as if he was excited, and inexplicable emotions filled his heart.
"Hahaha! Then it's decided! Luffy instantly propped up his body, and without waiting for Brooke's answer, he said happily: "I'll go down and ask Robin to help change the direction of the voyage!" ”
"Okay! Mr. Luffy! ”
Brooke suddenly stood upright, just watched Luffy walk into the cabin again, and said silently in his heart, "Rab, I think you must be in a hurry...
It's great to meet Mr. Luffy, I think you'll think the same thing, right... Rab..."
In the control room on the ground floor of the cabin, Robin is looking at the chart and calculating something, while observing the buttons and dials of various instruments on the panel to ensure that the ship can sail normally.
"Robin~"
From above the control room, Luffy's voice was heard.
"I'm here, Luffy!"
Robin, who heard Luffy's voice, also responded immediately.
Following the sound, Luffy curiously walked into the control center.
Although this warship has been bought for a while, Luffy really hasn't entered this control room once.
Even about buying a ship, Luffy just put forward an idea, and then asked Robin to contact the Navy Headquarters through the phone bug to buy this warship that was eliminated a few years ago.
It can be said that Robin is in charge of everything.
Over the years, Robin has really used her smart brain to the extreme for Luffy.
Through continuous reading and learning, Robin is now able to do laundry, cook, steer and control sails, heal and fight, and is domineering and refined.
It can be said that he can really go up to the hall and down to the kitchen, and he can fight the navy and fight the hooligans.
"Robin, we're going to change course." As soon as Luffy entered the control room, he spoke directly to Robin.
"Huh? Change course? Where are we going? ”
Although the current direction of sailing is the closest direction that Robin has calculated with great difficulty, Robin does not react at all, and just asks curiously.
Luffy grinned, revealing a row of delicate little white fangs, and said to Robin somewhat mysteriously, "Let's go to the entrance of the Great Voyage!" ”
"At the entrance to the Great Passage?" Robin frowned slightly, puzzled for a moment, and then as if he thought of something, he suddenly smiled and said, "I see~."
Okay, Captain Road! ”
After speaking, Robin directly opened the world chart provided by the Navy, took out paper and pen, and began to calculate the need to change the data, and then pressed several buttons on the control panel that Luffy couldn't understand at all.
Luffy suddenly felt a slight shaking, and the direction of the entire ship began to change.
Originally, Luffy and they had sailed to the border of the East China Sea, and as long as they crossed the windless zone, they were the weakest sea.
But now if you want to go to the Twin Straits, the crossroads of the great shipping route, you have to turn around and go in the exact opposite direction.
This is also the main reason why Brooke doesn't want to trouble Luffy, after all, he and Robin both know that Luffy is going back to the East China Sea to participate in his brother's departure ceremony.
So, although Brooke also misses Rab very much in his heart, he has never shown it to Luffy.
This also caused Luffy not to remember to go to see Rab first before seeing Brooke's longing expression.
Just as the ship was sailing towards the Twin Straits, the voice of the phone bug suddenly rang.
"Boolu... Boo Boo Pu
