The strait at the mouth of the Great Passage is called 'Twin Capes', and on the left and right sides of the canal's exit there is an old lighthouse, and they are called Twins.

After getting off the boat and pedaling on the shore, Nami looked around and asked Keitian, "What do you have to do here?" Is there an acquaintance? ”

"Nope." Jing Tian shook his head slightly: "I'm just here to deliver a message." ”

"Send a message? To whom? ”

"The main thing is to Rab, and of course to inform the guards here."

"But there's no one in there." Nami looked at the lighthouse in front of her, then closed her eyes and sensed again.

After a week of cultivation in Rogue Town, Nami also practiced seriously for a week, perhaps because the creatures and body structure of this world are too compatible with the 'demonic power', so even though Nami is cultivating low-level internal skills, she still successfully accumulates a lot of 'demonic power' in her body in just a few days.

Although it has not yet reached the level of awakening the 'armed color domineering', but the 'seeing and hearing color domineering' has unexpectedly successfully awakened, of course, there is also Nami's 'talent' factor here, after all, Nami is very sensitive to the weather, which means that her perception is very good.

Now Nami's 'Seeing and Hearing Domineering' is only at the level of awakening, and it is still very far away to use it in battle, but it can be used to 'sense the existence of living things'.

At this point, Nami perceived carefully, but as before, she didn't perceive any 'demonic power' in the lighthouse.

"Or not, is it because I haven't practiced enough or because of something else?" Nami opened her eyes and asked Keitian suspiciously.

"Your perception is correct, there's no one in there." Jing Tian was very satisfied and said with a smile.

"And what are we going to do at the lighthouse?"

"Feel it again." Jing Tian stopped and turned around to warn.

"Huh?" Nami tilted her head slightly, closed her eyes and focused, sensing the lighthouse thirty meters away again.

After a while, Nami's eyebrows raised slightly, and she said uncertainly, "Inside...... Something seems to be there? ”

"Not bad." Jing Tian bowed his head with satisfaction.

"What is it?" Opening her eyes, Nami asked as she looked at the lighthouse in front of her.

"In the future, you have to practice a lot and try to memorize more of the breath of creatures." Jing Tian first admonished, and then replied: "That breath in the lighthouse is a telephone snail." ”

"Oh-yes, I think that smell is a little familiar, it turns out to be a phone bug." Nami suddenly realized.

"Let's go." Jing Tian smiled and started his steps: "Go and see if that phone bug can get in touch with the guards here." ”

"Hmm." Nami followed, and at the same time raised her wrist to look, frowned, and said, "How long does it take for this pointer to determine the course, the magnetic needle has been spinning since just now." ”

"I don't know, I just know that the 'magnetic' time of each island is different." Jing Tian shook his head and said, "Let's ask later." ”

With that, the two of them had already come to the lighthouse and walked directly into the house.

The phone bug was very obviously placed on the wooden table, Jing Tian went to pick it up, looked at it, and pressed a button on the snail's back, it was obvious that this phone bug was used for single-frequency communication.

"Say." Soon the phone bug was connected, and an old man's voice came out, and his tone was very indifferent.

"Kurokas?" Jing Tian asked.

"Who are you?" The voice on the other side was a little confused.

"You get out of Rab's body first, I'll be waiting for you here at the lighthouse, there are some things I need you to hear."

"How do you know? Who are you......"

Kacha!

Without waiting for the other side to finish speaking, Jing Tian directly hung the microphone back on the snail's back, causing the snail to make a 'call end tone', and then closed his eyes and made a sleepy expression.

"You ...... like that" Nami was stunned, she had never seen Jing Tian look so rude.

"It's okay." Jing Tian chuckled, then pointed to the phone snail and said, "That old man's attitude towards strangers is very bad, I don't want to eat from him first." ”

"Hehe, then there's a lot of excitement later." Nami laughed.

Brubru Bru Bru, Brubru Bru ......

The phone bug rang suddenly, which surprised Jing Tian a little, and he thought that the old man must not be able to help but be curious, and would rush back immediately.

Under Nami's playful laughter, Keizam shrugged his shoulders and picked up the phone.

"What the hell is the bastard on the other side! Say anything! I can't go back for a while! Kulokas's tone was very unpleasant.

"Can't come back? Aren't you in Rab's body? ”

"Don't you know much? It seems that it is not an acquaintance. Kulokas snorted lightly, and his tone turned cold again in an instant: "There must be nothing important, in that case, you can talk about it or not, and get out of here if it's okay." ”

"Look, I'll just say that bastard has a very bad personality." Jing Tian pursed his lips and said to Nami beside him, and then said on the microphone: "It's about the 'Rumba Pirates', since you don't want to hear it, then I'll leave." ”

"Wait!" There was a cry of urgency, and there was silence for a moment, and Kulokas asked in a serious tone, "If I heard me right, you just mentioned the 'Rumba Pirates', right?" ”

"Not bad."

"What the hell is going on?" Kulokas asked in a deep voice.

"I brought the news, you have to be at least a little polite, right? Not ready to show up yet? ”

"Humph!" A cold snort was followed by silence, and after two breaths, Kulokas's voice sounded again: "Please wait a little longer, today's time is almost up, and I will return to the lighthouse to find you after I finish my work." ”

"When?" Jing Tian was stunned for a moment, and soon suddenly realized: "I see, that's good, we'll wait for you." ”

"So be it." Kurokas sighed, then hung up.

"What kind of dumb riddle are you guys playing?" Nami was a little confused, and when she saw Jing Tian hang up the phone, she couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Wait a minute, you will understand, I only know the general situation, and I have to wait for the old man to explain it in detail."

"Okay then." Nami didn't insist either.

Oooo

Rab's loud roar rang out again, this time for a long time, and several times over the course of the next ten minutes.

After one last roar, Rab suddenly began to dive and soon sank to the bottom of the sea.

Boom!

A moment later, a faint muffled sound came from the bottom of the sea, and the ground of the Twin Caplands shook slightly.

"What's wrong? Earthquakes? After Nami awakened her domineering spirit, her perception became more sensitive, and she immediately noticed the situation under her feet.

"It's Rab the Island Whale." Jing Tian sighed slightly and said, "Remember those huge scars on the top of Rab's head? ”

"Remember...... You mean! Nami was stunned for a moment, then confirmed in surprise, "Those scars were all made by itself?" Like ...... now."

"Hmm." Jing Tian bowed his head slightly.

"Why? Why does it self-harm? And the roar just now, I feel very sad. Nami asked, turning her head to look at the violently surging sea.

"It's a heart-wrenching story...... Let the old man tell you later. ”

It didn't take long for the trembling waves on the surface to subside, and soon Rab's huge figure floated up from the bottom of the sea.

Keizam and Nami waited on their chairs under the lighthouse for a while, and Kurokas, who Nami was worried about, walked over with Hachi.

"Flowers?" When Nami saw Kulokas, she was surprised and commented, "Oh, it turned out to be a headdress, such a unique old man." ”

"Is that you, a boy?" Kulokas, who was dressed in a 'fancy beachsuit', walked over, and his sharp eyes kept scraping around Jing Tian's body through the two lenses: "What the hell is going on?" Can you say that now? ”

"Before that, can you tell us more about Rab's story?" Jing Tian completely ignored the other party's sharp gaze, looked at Rab in the distance and said.

"You're such a bastard. It's too rude to me, an old man. Kulokas's tone was very unpleasant.

"I'm sorry, after all, I know your character, and your attitude towards strangers should be worse, right?" Jing Tian chuckled.

"Hmph." Kulokas was even more upset, and at the same time a little puzzled, not understanding how Jing Tian knew so much about him.

"Forget it, anyway, there will be nothing to do for the rest of today, I'll talk to you with kindness, and it's time to spend time." Kulokas said as he walked over to his chair and sat down.

"My name is Kulokas, I am the caretaker of the Lighthouse of Twin Heads, I am seventy-one years old, AB blood type, Gemini."

"My name is Nami."

"Jing Earles."

"Hmm." Kulokas gave Jing Tian a 'count of your acquaintances', then sighed and began to tell.

"Rab is not an ordinary whale, it has human emotions."

"A lot of creatures are." Nami interjected.

"Don't interject little girl." Kurokas glanced at Nami and reminded, "Listen, I mean that Rab is not only smart, not only can understand human speech, but the point is that he has the same emotions as humans, and understands feelings. ”

"Eh, hey......" Nami vomited apologetically, shrunk her neck and scratched the back of her head.

"You also know that Rab has been roaring in the sky, and he will hit the Red Earth Continent every day, listen carefully, the reasons are in the next story."

Seeing that Jing Tian and Nami who were sitting down were both listening attentively, Kurokas sighed slightly and officially started the lecture.

"That was many years ago, and that day I was guarding the lighthouse as usual, and suddenly a very friendly group of pirates rushed down the canal, and I remember very well that there was a calf jumping around the boat, and that was Rab."

At the beginning of the story, Kulokas's face still had a look of disgust for Jing Tian, but as soon as the first paragraph fell, Kulokas's face was only nostalgia.

"That group of pirates is what your kid calls the 'Rumba Pirates', at that time, Rab was always traveling with those guys in the West Sea, but the great route is not the four seas, and it is full of crises, so they originally wanted to leave Rab in the West Sea, but Rab still followed him by himself......"

"Do you know about island whales?" Kurokas had just told Nami not to interject, but now he took the initiative to ask the question.

"An endemic species of whale in the West Sea." Nami told the answer she had heard from Keiten.

"It seems that you only know, but you don't understand." Kulokas shook his head, turned his head to look at Rab in the distance, and said in a deep voice: "Island whales are indeed endemic to the West Sea, but the most important thing is that island whales are creatures that 'live in groups with companions'. ”

"Why did Narab break away from the tribe and ...... with that rumba"

"Because to Rab, those pirates are his companions." Kulokas didn't wait for Nami to finish asking, and then gave the answer.

"Because the boat broke down, the guys stayed here for a long time, and at that time, I witnessed the intimacy between Rab and the guys, and they really regarded each other as companions......"

There was a silence of remembrance, and Kulokas continued.

"After a long period of contact, I became friends with the pirates, and on the day they departed, their captain asked me, 'Can you take care of it for us for two or three years?' We'll definitely come back here to pick it up after a week around the world.'" ”

Kulokas paused again, looked down at his knees, and muttered, "Those bastards ......"

"Then they ......" Nami had already guessed something, and her expression became sluggish.

Kulokas did not reply, but continued slowly: "They told Rab why, although Rab was still very young at the time, he could fully understand the plight of those fellows, and he himself knew that it was too dangerous for him to be young in the Great Voyage. ”

"In order not to cause trouble to his companions, Rab agreed to stay, and after that, every one of the fellows made a solemn agreement with Rab that they would come and pick him up as soon as they had finished sailing."

"At that time, even though the pirate ship was far away, Rab and I could still hear the shouts of those guys on the shore, and the agreed shouts continued for a long, long time, constantly echoing in the sea breeze......"

The scene fell silent again.

Kulokas' eyes glazed over, visibly lost in memory.

Jing Tian began to combine the comic plots he had seen by telling the story, and he also fell into nostalgia.

Nami put away all her expressions, her eyes became a little straight, and she leaned her upper body lightly and leaned her head on Jing Tian's shoulder.

Hachi's reaction was the greatest, he couldn't express his mood at the moment in any words, so he could only exaggerate his tears and fall into silence as well.

"It's been fifty years...... "After some time, Kulokas spoke again, sighing deeply.

Nami took a deep breath and asked in a gloomy tone, "They must all be dead, you told Rab, and Rab didn't believe it, and still stuck to the agreement......"

"Yes, Rab doesn't believe it...... He thought that his companions would keep their promise and return here to join him......"

"It's clear, but it's unacceptable." Jing Tian turned his head, looked at Rab who was floating quietly on the sea, and said softly: "So it keeps roaring, is it calling for its companions, guiding them in the direction, or is it unwilling......

"It's all there." Kulokas shook his head slightly: "It wants to break through the upside-down mountain and return to the West Sea, he does not believe that his companions are dead, but firmly believes that his companions have fulfilled their dream of traveling around the world and returned to the West Sea, but for some other reason, they can't come and meet it." ”

"It's so pathetic." Xiao Ba wiped the tears on his face and said in a choked tone: "It's pointless to wait." ”

"If you accept the fact that your companion is dead, the wait will be completely meaningless." Kulokas patted his thighs with both hands, got up from his chair, looked at Rab and said, "And it can't go back to the West Sea, so those guys are its only companions and hopes, and if even this wait is meaningless, for Rab...... Without a companion is the most terrible thing. ”

"Earls......" Nami looked at Keizen.

"Boy, you're going to tell me...... Is it the fact that the Rumba Pirates have been completely wiped out? "If that's the case, you don't have to say it, I haven't stopped investigating all these years, and all the results point to this, and I already know it," Kulokas said. ”

"See the scar on Rab's head?" Without waiting for Jing Tian to speak, Kulokas raised his hand and pointed at Rab and continued: "Although the relationship between us is strange, we have lived together for fifty years, and I can't save it, if it continues to collide, I'm afraid it will die soon, so don't let it know your news, don't irritate it anymore." ”

"There's still a thrill." Jing Tian got up from his chair, turned to Rab's direction and let out a long breath, and then said softly, "But I will bring it more hope." ”

"You ......"

"Suck - Rab - "

Taking a deep breath, Jing Tian suddenly shouted loudly to Rab, and the sound was transmitted far into Rab's ears under the operation of the 'aura'.

"The Rumba Pirates - your companion...... They've failed—"

Under Kulokas's stunned expression, Jing Tian continued to shout to Rab, "They have all died on the Great Voyage - they have not fulfilled their dreams!" ”

"You, bastard! Shut up! Kulokas anxiously reprimanded Jing Tian.

Jing Tian didn't pay attention to it, and continued to shout to Rab, who instantly shed tears in his eyes: "But your agreement is not over-"

In Kulokas's astonishment, Nami and Hachi's anticipation, Jing Tian took a deep breath again and suddenly shouted, "Brooke! Alive—"

Boom –

Even after being injected with a huge amount of sedative, Rab's entire body still shook violently after hearing Jing Tian's shout, setting off huge waves on the sea surface around him.

Oooo

Writhing his body hard, Rab quickly recovered from the influence of the drug due to the excitement, and suddenly opened his mouth and roared.

"You—What did you say...... It's true? Kulokas looked dumbfounded, and confirmed to Jing Tian in disbelief.

Bang!

Rab suddenly poked his head over, smashed it on the shore, and aimed his eyeballs with a diameter of dozens of meters at Jing Tian, his eyes were completely humanized, and his eyes revealed anxiety and expectation.

"Brooke ate the Devil Fruit." Jing Tian was not verbose, and immediately said to Rab: "He rose from the dead, but now he is trapped in one place, but he has never forgotten the agreement with you!" ”

"Oooh-"

Rab lowered his voice and roared again, tears pouring down his eyes like a waterfall.

"He remembers the promise he made with you and remembers the dreams of his companions." Jing Tian ignored the tears that wet his body, looked up into Rab's eyes and said, "He is determined, he will definitely fulfill his dream on behalf of his companions, and he will definitely come back to fulfill the promise with you, you!" Never alone! ”

"Oooh-"

Rab's tears couldn't be stopped at all, but after listening to Jing Tian's words, Rab's eyes revealed a little 'doubt' emotion.

"I didn't lie to you." Jing Tian's eyes were open: "What I said is true, Brooke has always been persistent, has been trying to find a way out of the predicament, he will definitely come back to meet you." ”

Reading the little doubt that still existed in Rab's eyes, Jing Tian thought for a moment, and then said loudly: "Rab! I'll make a deal, I'll make a promise with you, I'll find Brooke, help him fulfill the dreams of your companions, and bring him back to meet you!" ”

Boom –

As soon as the words fell, Jing Tian suddenly burst out with momentum all over his body, spreading the 'Overlord Color Domineering' aimlessly.

"Trust me!" Jing Tian said to Rab in a firm tone: "I promise you! ”

"I also make a pact with you!" Nami's mood was uncontrollable, and she endured the discomfort of being oppressed by domineering, and shouted to Rab with a serious and firm face, "My seafaring skills are very strong! I'll definitely help Earls find Brooke! Take them around the world successfully! Come back here and finish this promise with you! ”

"I, so do I!" Xiao Baliu raised his arms in the air in unison, and shouted solemnly to Rabu's face, "No matter what Brooke's predicament is, even if it is in the sky, even if it is at the bottom of the sea!" I'm going to get him out! I'll bring Brooke back here in good condition with my big brother and sister! ”

Oh...... Oooo

Rab let out a soft scream, then suddenly raised his head and roared loudly into the sky, while his tail swayed violently at the bottom of the sea, sending huge waves on the surface of the sea.

"Huh...... Hehehehe......" Kulokas looked at the backs of Jing Tian and the three of them, and then looked at Rab, and suddenly laughed softly.

"Rab is very happy, it likes you very much......" The smiling Kulokas' eyes moistened, and he looked at Rab and said, "It agreed to this agreement with you." ”

"We're going to keep our promise." Nami smiled brightly, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Then I'll look forward to it with Rab."

Kulokas raised his hand and took off his glasses, wiped the moisture from his eyes, and then put his eyes on Jing Tian's back, thinking about the 'overlord color domineering' just now, Kulokas completely let go of his worries, and at the same time raised great confidence in Jing Tian......
