Chapter 54: The Second Coming
It's been half a year, and the faintly visible mangrove island in the distance······ I still remember that it was there that Ace buried his teacher Golden Lion with his own hands, and it was there that Ace disbanded his pirate group with his own hands.
"Absolutely not, let the tragedy happen again!" Clenching his hands tightly, Ace's eyes became more determined than ever.
"Hey, Captain, something is wrong!" Anilu, who was controlling the Golden Noah's advance, let out a burst of exclamation, a pair of blue eyes staring at the permanent pointer in his hand.
"Why is the pointer pointing under the water?"
"Let me answer that question." Morgan, who had tried his best to disperse the snake current, seemed to be recovering, and seeing that Anilu was puzzled, he stood up and explained, "The Chambord Islands are not actually an island, but are composed of a huge plant called Mangrove Tree, so the entire Chambord Islands has no magnetic field, and the direction pointed by the pointer is actually Fish-Man Island, so we must coat the ship to enter the new world through Fish-Man Island." ”
"Oh······" Anilu, who didn't know much about the great route, suddenly realized, but after hearing that he was going to dive to the bottom of the sea, he was a little worried, after all, because he couldn't wield his strength in the water.
"Wow, it's so beautiful in here, the branches are bubbling!" Coness has a pleasant novelty on her face, girls love beautiful things, and this is especially prominent in the innocent and romantic Coniss.
"Huh······ Of course, the island here is not really an island, but a giant mangrove tree. The ground here is full of resin, and because of the mangrove tree's breathing, these bubbles are formed, and these bubbles cannot be broken here. Yuna explained to Coness very carefully.
The last time he came, Ace was busy with the business at hand, and he never stopped to observe the Chambord Islands, and now he couldn't suppress the throbbing in his heart when he heard everyone talking about it.
"Alright, let's all go, little ones!" Ace howled in style, and he was full of energy now.
······
"Wow, that ship is all made of gold!"
"Hey, hey, my hands are a little itchy······"
"Hey, don't mess around, have you forgotten ······"
As soon as they approached the port, Ace and his gang were greeted by all kinds of envious and greedy eyes, and almost all of them were pirates, and the Chambord Islands were worthy of being the last barrier to enter the New World, and most of the people gathered here were outlaws.
"Cut, their gaze is really unpleasant!" Allowing others to greedily look at the Golden Noah he created, Anilu hadn't been generous enough to that extent, and if Ace hadn't told him not to cause trouble easily, he would have electrocuted those rats into coke a long time ago.
"Don't pay attention to them, it's just a group of small characters, if they dare to play any crooked ideas, it's not too late to do it then." To be honest, being looked at by others like a treasure, Ace is actually quite proud, this is his ship! The influence of a pirate group is not only reflected in the personnel, but also in the façade.
Docking the boat aside, Ace turned to the crowd and said, "For the next three hours, everyone is free to move, anyway, I have some personal matters······ Well, three hours later, everyone gathered on the boat, and I went to find a coater who could coat the boat. As for Lingling, you ······." Ace looked at the mermaid girls who had been following them, and thought a little in his heart.
"Are you going to go to Fish-Man Island with us, or do you want to go back now?" As far as Ace himself is concerned, of course, he hopes that they can go with his group, otherwise his ship is really difficult to move in the dark area of 10,000 meters in the deep sea.
"Hmm······ Since the benefactor is going to Fish-Man Island, let's go with the benefactor, anyway, it's not too late. The other party replied very cheerfully, after all, they have been waiting for many months, and it would be bad if they encountered human traffickers again, and with Ace and his gang, their lives would be a little more secure.
Ace and Yuna went to find the coater, Anilu and Cones went to buy supplies, Brooke and Doda planned to go for a walk, by the way to see if there were any bargains to be found, Morgan and Grace stayed on the ship temporarily, Lingling and the others naturally stayed in the cabin of the ship,—— the temptation of the mermaid girl to the traffickers was too great.
"Then it's settled." Ace assigned the task, and when he was about to leave, he came back and said, "Although it is unlikely, I still have to say one thing, if I meet other pirates or Draconians······ If you can avoid conflict, try to avoid it, after all, we don't know anything about the deployment on this island now, although the Great Bear has warned about it before······ It doesn't matter if it's a warship, but if it's a general······ Don't take it lightly. ”
Yuna gently tugged at Ace's clothes and asked with some uncertainty, "Ace, ······ now?" Is it going there? ”
"Hmm."
There is nothing to hide, and Yuna is such a smart woman, even if Ace wants to hide it, it's useless, the golden lion is not a good person, so he is very unlikeable, and the same is true for Ace, the golden lion's radical style of doing things is naturally not accepted by Ace, but ······ After all, he was his mentor, the one who gave up his legs and his life's honor for the sake of his friends.
As Ace said, if his family owes the golden lion, I'm afraid it won't be over in this life. Allowing the golden lion to enjoy the tranquility after death is the best thing Ace can do.
······ Maybe there's another one, take out the sea hooligan - Don Quixote Doflamingo.
"District 13, this is it." Yuna asked Ace, pointing to the mark on a mangrove tree.
According to the distribution of the entire Chambord Islands, although the areas from No. 1 to No. 29 are illegal, but considering the hundreds of meters long staircase in front of you······ What pirate would be interested in robbing? What's more, there are two people on it who are more terrifying than pirates. Although one dies for money, the other is an old man who often sells himself as extra money when he has no money.
Well? Something is wrong. Ace, who was about to walk towards the steps, grabbed Yuna, and in the other party's puzzled look, he stood quietly in front of the steps and gently closed his left eye, and opened it violently the next moment, but at this time, Ace's left eye pupil had already ignited a vast blue flame, "Straight to death, the ghost eye ,—— open!" ”
I really didn't feel wrong, there were three people's breaths on it, and the breath of two of them was extremely powerful, and there were even a lot of Ace, Reilly must be one of them, so the other ······ Could it be Aunt Peony? However, although Aunt Peony used to be one of the crew members of her dead ghost father, she wasn't so strong, right?
There are only a handful of people in this world who can compare with Rayleigh, the Hades, and it is impossible for Whitebeard to know, and it is even more impossible for the Navy to know Rayleigh's movements, and even if they do, they will never sit with Rayleigh so calmly.
Isn't it······ Red Shanks?
"Let's go." After calming his chaotic breathing, Ace was ready to fight at any time, striding towards the "Aunt Peony's Bamboo Bar" above, and Yuna followed closely behind quietly.
"Bang" opened the door, in this small room, the other party's rickety body has been reflected in Ace's eyes, but a light glance, Ace felt as if more than ten years had passed, and his reddish eyes were already full of tears.
"I remember you're over eighteen years old, and you're an adult, so how about you have a drink with me, old man?" As if he had expected Ace's arrival, the other party raised the wine glass on the counter and began to pour it to himself.
Ace, who was like a great enemy before, has now become completely quiet, and pulled Yuna to sit next to the other party.
"Yes, Grandpa."
