Chapter 148: The King of the South Seas
The clouds in the sky were as thick and oppressive as lead, and then the wind blew!
Several furious bolts of forked lightning streaked through the clouds, and a violent torrential rain followed.
Inglet, a purple-haired beauty dressed in a smart costume, held a large black umbrella and stood on the deck of a huge merchant ship, silently staring at Green Pepper Island in the distance. The downpour made the visibility extremely low, and Green Pepper Island was only a black outline in the eyes of everyone on board.
"Lord Inglet, ...... this?" Behind him, a strong man with a turban walked by, asking suspiciously.
Inglett didn't look back, still staring at Green Pepper Island in the distance, and said slowly: "The negotiation broke down, and Green Pepper Island is now a battlefield between Lord Liquid and that guy." ”
At this moment, another lightning bolt struck! Through the intense light of this moment, two extremely huge figures on the island were clearly reflected, and the black shadow of the huge lizard standing upright and the long-winged snake shadow flying in the sky were facing each other.
In the middle of the dense forest on Green Pepper Island.
Gurado, who has transformed into a 15-meter giant erect lizard, narrows his golden ring-shaped pupils slightly, and the fan-shaped dorsal fin behind him flickers and flickers, showing his inner unpeace.
In the sky opposite him, a huge flying snake with a total length of at least 30 meters was flying out of thin air, it had two huge long feathered wings, and its body was also covered with luxurious colored feathers, its head was similar to that of a snake, but it was full of majesty, and its long golden hair turned into a long golden mane that kept surging and fluttering like flames, and its vertical pupils that exuded turquoise light were staring at the red erect lizard in front of them.
"Calling for wind and rain?" Gulado spoke slowly, his hoarse voice filled with hostility: "No wonder all the legends about you are accompanied by downpours and thunderstorms!" And this look...... Sure enough, you are the powerhouse of that legendary Devil Fruit! ”
"The animal is a snake snake fruit phantom beast species, and the form is [Quetzalcoatl God]!"
"Whatever you want."
A look of human disdain appeared on Quetzalcoatl's face: "You have lost your last chance to surrender. Now, let me see how good you are! ”
Riquid's wings spread, and a violent thunderbolt streaked across the sky and slammed into Gurado's body!
But Gourado, covered in thick red flaky skin, only emitted a puff of scorched smoke from his body, and he let out a deafening roar in complete rage.
The earth shook wildly, and Gurador rushed towards Riquid with his thick feet, shattering countless trees and rocks, and the fan-shaped dorsal fin behind him suddenly lit up with a dazzling red light, and then the red monitor lizard's claws were covered with fierce firelight, and swung towards Liquid!
The blue brilliance in the eyes of the Quetzalcoatl God suddenly exploded, and every feather on his body was covered in intense thunder!
Flame and thunder collided together!
In the distance, Inglett looked at the fierce fires that erupted from time to time on Green Pepper Island, and muttered in his mouth: "The battle between the two top phantom beast species, no matter who wins or loses, this island will no longer exist......"
"The king of the South China Sea, there is only one person!"
…………………………
In the café in Rogue Town, Robin and the others meet up with Victor smoothly.
“…………”
“…………”
Perona crossed her waist and glared at each other with Nami, who was also not to be outdone.
Her eyes were sour, and Perona forced a laugh: "Ha! Are you my brother's new disciple? Just a flat little ghost ......"
Nami stuck out her tongue: "Auntie, how old are you and still have a flat body like my little ghost, are you not ashamed?" ”
"Auntie!?" Perona was struck like lightning: "What are you talking about!?? ”
On the other side, Robin came to Victor with a somewhat embarrassed middle-aged man: "Victor, this is Mr. Pierre that I mentioned to you on the phone." ”
This is a middle-aged thin man with curly brown hair with a goatee, he wears glasses, and his clothes are shabby but clean, but his face is yellow, his hands and feet are floating, and his expression is a little embarrassed, obviously destroyed by life.
Victor offered to reach out: "Welcome to Coral, Mr. Pierre. ”
Pierre quickly wiped his hand on his clothes, then held Victor's hand tightly and whispered, "You're too polite, boss." I would also like to thank you and Madame Robin for taking me in, my name is Pierre Lescault, and you can just call me Pierre. ”
It seems that this Monsieur Pierre would prefer to be called by his first name rather than by his first name.
"You're being too humble." Victor said mildly: "The world's top architects and gardeners, the expulsion of you from the Kingdom of Goa is their greatest loss. We're looking for top talent like you to join you, and Coral can help you achieve your ambitions and dreams, so put your talents to good use." ”
Pierre trembled, his lips twitched, but he couldn't say a word, just bowed deeply. He has been abandoned from this world for too long, and he needs someone who can appreciate his talent to appear.
Victor tells Baby5 to take Pierre down to rest, and tells him to take care of himself before starting work. Then he took Robin to the booth in the corner and asked with a smile, "How is it, nothing went wrong, right?" ”
Robin smiled and shook his head: "I've already handed over the stuff to him, and it's going pretty well." ”
Victor smiled slightly: "I believe that when he looks at that thing, he will understand what I mean." By the way, what is the situation with this Monsieur Pierre? ”
"He was originally an architect and gardener for the royal family of the Kingdom of Goa, and he was quite famous in the industry. Three months ago, he was deprived of all his property and expelled from the territory of the nobles of the Kingdom of Goa, 'Gaozhen', because of 'something' that angered the royal family, and he was penniless and had no job to become a beggar according to the royal family's wishes, so he had to go to the construction site to work as a coolie. ”
"He fainted on the side of the road when we found him in Duanzhen, and after rescuing him, Matthew cooked some body-conditioning dishes for him. Through chatting, I found out that he is the kind of architecture talent you want me to find, so I contacted you on the phone and asked him to come to you with us. ”
"Well done, Robin." Victor nodded: "The central island of the Ark of Passion needs such a master architect to plan and build, and I want to make this central island the largest and most outstanding [museum] in the world, and Pierre is an important part of the plan." ”
"Then you're going to have to compete with BIGMOM." Robin said with a smile: "It is said that there is also a collection room in her kingdom that houses all kinds of rare beasts. ”
"It's a 'collection library' made from the fruits of Mondol's books, right?" Victor pursed his lips rarely, and said with an unhappy expression: "It's just a shortcut with the help of the fruit ability, if I kill Mondol at that time, BIGMOM's library will be completely finished!" ”
"Yes, yes, thanks to your mercy." Robin amusedly reassured Victor: "It's been almost two months since I came to the East China Sea, where are we going next?" ”
"Return to the Ark of Passion, and then set off on the Great Voyage, there is nothing left to do in the East China Sea." Victor picked up the juice on the table and took a sip:
"Next stop, Nanhai."
