Chapter 099: Kulokas
The sailboat successfully "climbed" to the top of the Upside-Down Mountain, and after crossing the huge curtain of water formed by the convergence of the currents of the four seas, the sailboat turned around and sailed along the only descending current of the Upside-Down Mountain to the great course.
At the moment when the sailboat went down the river, the color of anticipation appeared on everyone's faces.
Even Luo, who had always had a cold face, had a faint smile on his little face at this time, hoping that this great voyage would bring him a better future.
"Brother Carl, I feel that there is a powerful breath of life in the sea ahead, it is very likely to be a sea king!"
After Qi Luno sensed this breath of life using her domineering vision, she told Carl as soon as possible, because the speed of the sailboat was very fast at this time, and if you delay for a second, it will advance a long distance.
"It's Rab, it's not a sea king, it's a giant island whale! Be careful, Mr. Karl, for Rab sometimes stops at the surface of the sea, and if he crashes into it, the ship will be doomed! ”
As a merchant, Sophia had been to Upside Down Mountain several times, and even resold goods between the Great Voyage and the Four Seas, so she had already met Rab the whale more than once.
Although he was surprised that Sophia knew Rab's name, Carl didn't have the energy to think about it now.
"Rest assured! When the time comes, I'll show you what the real technology is! ”
As for how to deal with the difficulties in front of him, Carl is confident.
Having already considered the first hurdle of entering the Upside-Down Mountain, Karl had the shipwrights of the Land of Flowers carefully design every detail of this ship, in order to cope with all kinds of unreasonable and strange climates in the great voyage.
Despite the small size of this ship, it is even smaller than the "Golden Merry", but the cost of this ship is far more than that of the Merry, because the design of this ship uses a variety of high-quality materials and professional technology.
At the moment when the ship entered the great course, Karl frantically spun the rudder, and the little sailing ship on the sea, like a racing car on the road, actually made a "drift" in time, and at an incredible angle grazed the "wall" in the middle of the sea, and passed through the gap in the side without danger.
Sophia was already slumped on the deck in fright.
Even Kiruno and Luo widened their eyes in horror and held their breath, unable to utter a word.
Just now, if you deviate a little more, this ship will be completely finished!
"Hey, Carl! Can't you be reliable? How can you reassure everyone! ”
Coming back to his senses, Luo's face was covered with black lines, and it seemed to him that Carl's behavior this time was almost no different from his death.
"How do I know that whale is so close to the entrance of the Great Passage? Be content! If it weren't for my quick eye, I'm afraid this ship would have crashed into it directly! ”
Carl, who calmed down, also felt a little scared.
This Rab didn't know what was going on today, but it was so close to the shore that he almost gambled on the entrance.
"I don't know how many ships from all over the world end their sailing careers here every year!"
Rab's behavior is not the slightest pattern, whether he dives into the sea or crosses the entrance, it all depends on his mood.
Maybe it will cause countless traffic accidents long ago.
That Kulokas really deserves to be the crew of One Piece Roger, otherwise with the compensation for the accident, he would have been dragged and sold as a slave long ago.
At this time, Kulokas was sitting on a piece of land near the Lighthouse of the Twin Heads, crossing Erlang's legs, his mouth wide open, and looking at Carl in surprise.
He saw it all in his eyes.
It's been so many years, and it's the first time he's met someone who knows how to play like this.
"Let's go to the lighthouse and rest for a while, and wait for Erin."
Karl glanced up at Rab, who was like a mountain not far away, and secretly wondered, and then steered the sailboat cautiously in the direction of the lighthouse.
In order to avoid an accident while sailing in the updraft, Erin helped Carl's sailboat enter the updraft of Upside Down Mountain, and then dived headlong into the water, making way for the sailboat, so she fell behind.
"Hehehe...... Today's young people are really bold enough, and this is the first time I've seen someone like you sail a boat. ”
After Karl and the others stopped the boat and docked, Kurokas smiled kindly and greeted Karl and the others.
"Hello grandpa!"
Kiruno smiled sweetly and greeted Kurokas.
Luo had a cold little face, leaned on the side of the boat and did not speak.
"Ah, hello little girl!" Kurokas didn't rely on the old and sell the old, he replied to Kirino in a friendly way, and didn't care about Luo's indifference.
"Mr. Kulokas!"
At this time, Sophia jumped off the boat.
"Huh? Sofia? Why are you here? Are these people your friends? ”
After seeing Sophia, a trace of surprise appeared on Kulokas's face, but it quickly turned into a smile, "Recently, your little girl didn't send me supplies, so the old man and I have been fishing and eating lately, and I don't even have to drink alcohol!" ”
"Alas......" Sophia sighed, her eyes still showing deep fear.
Months of living in the shadows of darkness aboard Moria's terrifying trimast left a shadow on Sophia's psyche that would almost never be erased.
But after all, Sophia is not an ordinary girl next door, but a strong woman who dares to do business between the great voyage and the four seas, so she will not be hit by this incident and lose her confidence in life.
“…… That's a long story. ”
"Then we'll talk about it later, Sophia...... Why don't you introduce me to your friends? ”
Kurokas looked away from Sofia and turned to Karl, who was busy arranging the sails on the ship.
"Oh, this little girl's name is Kiruno, this little boy's name is Luo, and the ...... on the boat It's called Lucy! ”
In order to avoid some unnecessary trouble, Karl not only put on sunglasses and a beard, but also continued to use the name "Lucy" that was originally used in the Flower Country Fighting Tournament.
"Hello uncle!"
At this point, Karl stabilized the boat on the shore and jumped out of the boat.
"Hello!"
Kurokas nodded slightly, and his heart slightly increased a trace of goodwill towards Sophia's friends.
At least they're all polite, and they don't seem to be vicious.
But Carl's next words made Kulokas's face black with anger.
"Uncle, where is your whale just like that? That's a few hundred accidents a year, right? ”
