Chapter 362. Does Golden Country really exist?
After the bounty order for the Monster Pirates appeared.
However, any pirate group that sees Caroso on the sea will immediately stay away from that area, and even some pirates who have a reputation for being 'arrogant' among pirates will not touch their heads.
Today's monster pirates are well-deserved monsters in 'Paradise', and there is no one of the strongest pirates.
None of the pirates wanted to verify the 'strongest' reputation of the monster pirates, and they only wanted to send them to the new world as soon as possible.
Monster families usually don't chase other pirates on the sea, unless they don't have enough supplies on board and want to grab them.
But this basically doesn't happen.
Caroso was still moving towards Gaya Island, and Kazan was lying on Caroso's head in a daze every day, thinking about his next plan.
The rest of the Monster Pirates didn't know, but Kazan knew exactly where they were going.
It's not Gaya Island, it's just a transit point, and he's going to heaven.
Sky Island.
There's a piece of historical text there.
Originally, Kazan was completely uninterested in the so-called blank history of 800 years ago, but with what Robin saw in the text of history, Kazan also became interested.
And that Anilu... Kazan also had some ideas.
Less than two weeks after leaving Alabastan, Carroussell arrived on the island of Gaya.
A small, unremarkable island, Carroso found a random place and docked on the shore of Gaya Island.
"Huh? Why?! ”
Perona's surprised voice came and caught everyone's attention.
Kazan looked over as well, and when he noticed Perona looking at the recording pointer in her hand in surprise, he knew it.
"What's wrong, Pepe?"
"Record pointers... The direction of the finger is. Heavenly..."
Perona was a little stunned, she followed the direction of the record pointer and came to Gaya Island, but when she arrived, the pointer pointed to the sky instead.
"Legend has it that there are empty islands in this world, that is, islands floating in the air and built on clouds, which are also a kind of ecological islands, but most people don't believe in the existence of empty islands."
Robin pinched his chin and thought about something.
"In other words, if we want to go to the next island, we either don't need to record the pointer and move forward blindly, or we go to the empty island to record before we set off?"
Monet didn't have any doubts about the existence of the so-called empty island, but just looked at it with a normal heart.
"But does Sky Island really exist? So the question is, how do you get up? ”
Vonclay looked up at the sky, and there seemed to be nothing but a blue and a large number of clouds.
"There are two routes, one is from the top of the western sky, taking the empty sea, passing through several empty islands along the way, and the other... Take a current that bursts into the sky to reach the Sky Island. ”
At the end of this sentence, everyone looked at Kazan in surprise, and no one in the monster family thought that even Robin didn't know something, why Kazan would know.
Kazan didn't explain, but looked at the sea next to him, where there was a man.
The rest of the monster family had apparently spotted this person as well, and their attention was drawn to it.
A sturdy man with chestnuts on his head and a shirtless body.
The man had apparently noticed the pirate ship docked next to him, and his eyes were full of shock as he looked at the monster pirates, but there was nothing else to show otherwise.
It's pretty calm.
"Xiao Feng, bring him here."
Kazan stared at the man with the chestnut on his head, feeling a little impressed.
Without saying a word, Von Clay turned into a bird and grabbed the man, who probably knew no need to resist, and let Von Clay take him to the deck on Carlo.
"The sea thief with a bounty of 400 million, what are you doing to catch me?"
Mont Blanc Kulichai looked at the tall red-eyed man in front of him, only to feel a sense of oppression on his face, and swallowed his saliva, but he was calm and did not panic.
"Ask you something, and if you don't know, let you go immediately."
Kazan glanced at MontBlanc Kulichai in front of him, and always felt that this guy was a little familiar, but he forgot such a character.
“?”
"We're going to Sky Island, we can't take the normal route, we can only take the sea current, I've heard that there is a kind of sea current that allows the ship to reach the air directly, have you heard?"
"You.. What did you say?! ”
Mont Blanc Kulichai was directly shocked when he heard Kazan's words, and his eyes widened as he looked at the red-eyed man in front of him.
What did he say?
Sky Island? Current? The normal route?
"Have you heard of it?"
Kazan didn't repeat what he had just said, just stared at the man in front of him quietly, as if he knew something.
“... Come to my house and tell me, I know and have seen the current you are talking about, but it will not appear recently, and it is useless for you to be anxious, so it is better to listen to me first. ”
Mont Blanc Kulichai tried to calm himself down, he hadn't forgotten what kind of existence the red-eyed man in front of him was.
"Okay."
Mont Blanc Kulikai's home was also on the coast, so the monster family didn't get off the boat, but drove the Caroso straight there.
Eventually, they stopped in front of a large castle.
In fact, it is a wooden plank facing the sea, and the plank is like a castle, but on the other side of the plank is a small stone house.
"Your Excellency Kazan, I'm not talking nonsense, I just want to know, you said you were going to the Sky Island... Is it serious? ”
"Pepe, come."
Kazan didn't say much, but pulled his little sister over and pointed to the record pointer on her wrist.
The hands are pointing straight to the sky.
Mont Blanc Kulichai took one look at the 'Princess Mononoke' and then looked at Kazan again.
"Sky Island, does it really exist?"
When Mont Blanc said this, he had apprehension and anticipation in his heart.
"Hmm."
Kazan nodded, looking at the man in front of him, and the album he was holding, and felt like he remembered something.
"Whew..."
When Mont Blanc heard what Kazan had said, he sat down on a stake and couldn't recover for a long time, not noticing that Kazan had taken the album from his hand.
The album tells the story of a man named Mont Blanc Nolando who arrived on the island of Gaya and found a place called Shandora, the 'Golden Country', and found it full of gold, so he returned to his kingdom and told the king.
The king listened to him and led his men to find the legendary Golden Country, but when they arrived again on Gaya Island, the Golden Country had somehow disappeared.
Mont Blanc Nolando could not accept this, and in the face of the doubts and abuse of the people of the whole country, he always insisted on what he saw at the beginning, 'The Golden Country is real!' I saw gold in the skeleton's right eye! ’
But his persistence had no effect, and instead he only got the name of the 'King of Great Words', and was finally sentenced to death by the king.
The story of this album is simple and doesn't feel nutritious, but Kazan doesn't think so.
Golden Township is real, Kazan knows this very well, it's right in their heads.
And the 'skeleton's right eye' mentioned in the album suddenly reminded Kazan of something.
He turned to look at the crooked shore where they were, and the memory came back to his mind.
Also, the guy with the chestnut on his head in front of him is the descendant of the 'King of Big Talk' Mont Blanc Norando.
"The story of Nolando? I saw it when I was a kid. ”
Robin's voice rang in Kazan's ears.
Since Kazan was sitting on an ultra-low wooden stake, Robin was nearly two meters tall, so he had to lean over slightly when reading the album.
As a result, as soon as Kazan turned his head, he looked at a mysterious ravine, but he didn't take it seriously and ignored it directly: "Robin, do you have any impression of this Nolando?" ”
Robin didn't notice that Kazan's gaze had ever reached her chest, so he straightened up and thought back a little: "More than 400 years ago, the expedition admiral and botanist of the Lubnir Kingdom in the North Sea, and other than that... It seems that there is nothing left. ”
"Can you believe it? The words from the mouth of this liar.. The so-called 'Golden Country'. ”
Mont Blanc, who was stunned, suddenly spoke, looking at the album in Kazan's hand, his face was strange.
"How can you believe something you haven't seen before?"
Von Clay obviously didn't believe it, he only believed what he saw with his own eyes and what Kazan said.
"yes... Who would believe the words of a liar without seeing it with their own eyes. ”
Mont Blanc smiled self-deprecatingly and looked up at the sky, his movements unknown to everyone, but Kazan looked at the ground beneath his feet with some guess.
"Robin, do you have a map of Gaya Island?"
"Nissan, I've got it here."
Monet handed over a map of Gaya Island, a skull missing its left eye.
"Golden Township.. Washed into the sky, right? ”
“!!!”
One of Kazan's guesses made Mont Blanc stand up and look at Kazan in surprise, as if he had found a confidant.
"You.. Do you believe in the existence of Golden Village?! ”
"No one can say for sure, but most of the islands above my head are empty islands, and what Nolando said makes me guess... Perhaps, the recording location of the pointer is still Gaya Island, but... It's the Gaya Island that has been washed up into the sky by the current. ”
Kazan's words made everyone in the monster family stunned, if it's really the same, then it seems to be okay?
"What kind of ocean current can directly tear apart an island and rush thousands of miles into the air?!"
Vonclay looked at the ground under his feet in shock, the shape of which seemed to have been gnawed off. Maybe it's a possibility.
"Soaring currents!"
Mont Blanc gritted his teeth and said, and Kazan's words made him even more convinced that his ancestor, Mont Blanc Nolando, had reached the Golden Country.
"What I'm looking for is this sky-high current."
Kazan smiled, he had forgotten the name of the current before, and now Mont Blanc reminded him of it.
"Your Excellency Kazan, there is something to ask for below!"
"Oh?"
Kazan was interested, and he wanted to hear what this Nolando descendant had to say.
"My name is Mont Blanc Cullicquet, a descendant of Nolando, the 'King of Big Talk', and this chestnut on my head is proof of that!"
"Well, I guessed it."
Kazan's words made Mont Blanc look up in surprise again, but when he looked up, he found that everyone in the monster family seemed to have guessed it.
Huh?! Is it so obvious?
"Ahem, I've always wondered if my ancestor Nolando was a liar or not, and if the Golden Country really exists.
But I have the self-knowledge that I can't do anything but go down to the sea day after day in search of gold, and I don't even have the courage to ride the current!
But your presence gives me hope, I will risk my life to send you safely to the sea in the sky, and if you die, then I will die too. ”
"How can you help us?"
Kazan only cared about this, he didn't think that the chestnut man in front of him could help them.
"Hull modification, with current monitoring."
Mont Blanc's tone was full of confidence and determination.
"Current monitoring?"
"Yes! If you want to reach the cupola current safely, you must seize the moment the current appears, and if it drags, the subsequent currents may not allow your boat to reach the target due to the drop in power.
I also have an organization called the Saruyama Coalition, and our ships are loaded with a lot of monitoring devices, whether it's gold under the sea or currents in the sea, we can detect something wrong in the first place.
We can tell you in advance when and where the skyrocketing current will appear! ”
"Hmm... It does work a little. ”
Kazan thought for a moment and nodded.
"So, what about your request?"
"Bells! Nolando had heard the beautiful bell that could convey thousands of miles during a storm, and it was by that bell that he arrived in the Golden Country.
If the Golden Country really exists, please ring the golden bell, even if it is thousands of miles in the sky, I will definitely be able to hear it! ”
"Okay, I'll ring that clock... If Golden Country really exists. ”
Kazan knew that the species did exist, and it seemed to have a special symbolic meaning.
It's just that he forgot.
"Thank you so much!"
Montblanc Kulikai gritted his teeth and bowed to Kazan, gambling his life on this one.
If the bell hadn't been ringing, then...
Maybe he'll really resign himself to his fate.
Confessed that Mont Blanc Nolando was a liar.
If the Golden Country is really fake...
Then there is no point in his stay on Gaya Island to dive day after day in search of gold.
The meaning of his life is gone.
"So, let some of your Combine forces monitor the currents, and what hull modifications you have, go ahead and try it, but don't mess with me."
"Rest assured! We're not going to work on the hull, this ship is built by a master, and I still have the eye for that, we're just going to add a little bit of 'peripherals'. ”
Mont Blanc gambled his life to gain some trust from Cazan, so they allowed them to add peripherals to Caroso.
It can also be regarded as a little preparation for riding the sky-high current.
