Chapter 104: Nautilus

Those who have not seen the Ark of Passion up close will never be able to appreciate the majesty of worship.

In the front entrance sea of Fish-Man Island, a huge ark that even exceeds the size of Fish-Man Island slowly approaches by the current.

Just the currents carried by the sailing have already crumbling the watchtowers of the Border Guard. The team members were horrified to find a dull creaking sound from the impregnable ancient walls of the watchtower, and the sea beasts that roamed around them had long since dispersed.

"Captain...... What the hell is that...... "Even the long-dormant Noah's Ark is less than 1/3 the size of this mysterious ark. The members of the border guard were so frightened that they couldn't even hold the trident in their hands.

"Whatever that is...... If it is allowed to approach Fish-Man Island, Fish-Man Island will be really dangerous!! Sound the alarm! The second team will go and inform Ryugu City, and everyone else, follow me! ”

The captain of the Border Guard is a tiger shark man named 'Marwel'. He immediately dispatched the second team composed of the fastest mermaids to return to Ryugu City to report the news, while he and the rest of the team were ready to fight to the death.

Never let this ship approach Fish-Man Island!!

At the harbor at the entrance of Fish-Man Island, people are warmly welcoming Princess Otohime, who has returned safely. Neptune, the king of the sea, also arrived at the scene with the prince and princess, and the family was happily reunited.

But the shrill sirens shattered the blissful atmosphere.

The right minister looked at the sky angrily, "The border guard will only sound when there is a major crisis!" What's going on!? ”

The shrill and piercing sirens continued to echo over Fish-Man Island, and the people's originally happy mood suddenly became panicked. The last time it sounded was more than ten years ago, when large-scale pirates invaded Fish-Man Island and captured mermaids as slaves, and the entire Fish-Man Island was on the verge of destruction, but fortunately, the Whitebeard Pirates arrived in time and protected Fish-Man Island with the strength of the strongest man in the world.

Is there a repetition of the tragedy of that day today?

Suddenly, someone pointed to the 'sky' in the distance and shouted in horror, "Look!! That'sβ€”What's that!?? ”

Everyone looked up and saw that in the distance outside the bubbles of Fish-Man Island, a ship-shaped black shadow was slowly approaching Fish-Man Island, and its size was even bigger than Fish-Man Island. In the event of an impact, Fish-Man Island is bound to be completely destroyed.

"That's ...... What? "Neptune's face is extremely ugly, no matter how powerful his personal strength is, it can't play any role in front of such a huge warship, right?

Princess Otohime, who was holding the princes and princesses, was also pale with fright, but suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "That's ...... That's a murderous chain!! ”

"Queen Mother, what is the murderous chain?" The Great Prince Shark looked up suspiciously and asked.

"Ah, the queen mother is wrong, the murder chain is a person, not a ship." Otohime calmed down for a moment, and then explained to the people who were looking at her, "If I'm not mistaken, that giant ark should be the car of the new 'Murder Chain' Mafia Victorβ€”β€”! I was in ...... the other day I saw the ship on land, when it was being coated in the waters of the Chambord Islands. I didn't expect it to complete the coating transformation so quickly and come to Fish-Man Island. ”

"Ahh It's the Victor brothers! At this time, the 'Sea Man' Jinping who rushed to hear the siren also saw the huge ark in the distance, and recognized the symbol on the sail of the Ark of Enthusiasm at a glance.

"Jinping, is this 'murderous chain' Victor friend or foe?" Neptune, the king of the sea, saw that someone understood and hurriedly asked.

Jinping laughed, "Rest assured, Your Majesty Neptune. The Victor brothers are very friendly to our Fish-People, and Master Snowy is also under his command! ”

"Heavy snow? Great, great......" Hearing Haoxue's name, Neptune immediately breathed a sigh of relief. If you ask the strongest person in active fish-man karate, the world may say that it is 'Sea Man' Jinhei. But Neptune knew that the real fish-man karate was the strongest, and it was none other than Haoxue.

The crowd let out another exclamation, and Neptune and Jinping hurriedly turned their heads to look, only to see the speed of the Ark of Passion in the distance gradually slowing down, and the mechanisms on both sides of the bow opened, releasing a huge anchor.

…………

The sea area at the entrance to the front of Fish-Man Island.

"Decompression chamber No. 4 opens!! The anchor descends at a speed of 36/32! Team 1 slows down the descent of the right anchor and aligns with Team 2!! ”

"Mainsail No. 1 containment progress completed 100!"

"Containment progress of Sail 2 is 100 complete!"

"The No. 3 sail chain power system is safe! Sail containment progress 80...... 82…… 85……”

"Captain Gig has instructions! Team 3 immediately sent a light signal to Fish-Man Island, which read! ”

"Team Four report! There are no anomalies in any area of the Ark! There is no abnormality in the coating! ”

For a ship as large as the Ark of Passion, even a simple stop requires the cooperation of everyone. Thankfully, Coral's crew is second to none on the great routes, and Frankie's power system is perfect. Even so, the three shipwright captains of Bingshan, Giger, and Frankie also kept a close eye on the data of all aspects of the monitoring ark, and did not dare to be negligent.

At the bow of the ship, Perona was complaining to Haoxue depressedly, "Old man, where is this 10,000 meters under the sea?" It's almost 20,000 meters! ”

Haoxue laughed out loud: "Ha! Ha! Ha! It is a general term used to describe the unfathomable depth of the sea. Otherwise, wouldn't our ark of enthusiasm be poked upside down and go straight to the end? Generally speaking, the location of the undersea 'Dark Street' is 3,000 to 6,000 meters, the submarine volcano is about 8,000 meters, and further down is the bottomless trench, which leads to the bottom where Fish-Man Island is located. ”

"But it's so dangerous!" Mai Hongji stuck out her tongue, "I almost got stuck in the huge hole under the Red Earth Continent, and the submarine volcanic eruption is also terrifying!" ”

"Hehehe~ I almost became charred for all of you~" Robin stroked his face and said terrible words with a smile.

"Sister Robin! Your thoughts are too dark, aren't they? Perona and Matthew screamed in fright.

Victor smiled slightly, "Haoxue, Robin, Perona, Maihonghime, Luo, Matthew, you all follow me on the 'Beagle' to Fish-Man Island." ”

"This will be our first stop on our way to the 'New World.'"
