Chapter 196: Chatter under the deep sea
[A total of 14,500 strings of 'Kuygos wood chips' were released.] 】
[Bubble coating is stable!] 】
[The course is confirmed, the 'White Dragon' has been observed, and contact is expected in 24 minutes.] 】
10,000 meters below the bottom of the sea, a huge ark of incomparably huge size is slowly rising towards the surface of the sea.
The deep sea was as deep and quiet as the night sky, and those super giant sea kings with high intelligence did not come to disturb the Ark of Passion, but just wandered in the distance, quietly staring at this behemoth.
After a dozen days in the South China Sea, the Ark of Passion set sail again for the Great Voyage. This time, they will travel through the underwater world again and return to the new world to continue the [Four Seas Cruise].
"Jinping has been regretting that he couldn't help you."
Standing at the top of the island palace and admiring the night sky-like deep sea, Victor held a glass of red wine in his hand, and the voice of the snow came from the stairs behind him: "He even plans to resign from the position of the Seven Martial Seas and come to 'Coral' to help you." ”
Victor, who was dressed in a casual fish-scale suit, shook the wine glass in his hand and chuckled: "The World Conference is imminent, if Fish-Man Island wants to speak out in front of all countries, it needs Jinping, one of the [Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty], to suppress the formation, this is the top priority of Fish-Man Island." When this is over, I will personally invite Jinping to join Coral. ”
“…… That's right. ”
Hao Xue was wearing a black yukata and carrying half a bottle of sake in his hand: "Although the old man is a fish-man clan, when it comes to his contribution and consciousness to the fish-man clan, it is really less than one-tenth of Jinping...... Ashamed. ”
Victor drank the remaining little red wine in the glass, and then handed the wine glass: "What is the Great Treasure in your hand?" Come on. ”
"Six bottles...... You've got a good amount of alcohol. Looking at the empty wine bottle at Victor's feet, Haoxue raised her lightning-shaped eyebrows slightly, and poured half a glass of sake into the empty cup in Victor's hand: "But I've never seen you drink because you don't have good wine?" ”
"Sorry, just once." Victor took a sip of sake, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes: "People can have 'hobbies', but they can't let 'hobbies' become 'unbridled pleasures', my father taught me this principle very early. ”
"He's a good father." Hao Xue raised the wine bottle and took a sip: "At first, I thought you and Miss Xiao were brothers and sisters, but later Miss Xiao revealed a little bit about your life experience to the old man...... In the beginning, it was difficult, right? ”
Victor smiled slightly, looked up at the deep sea above his head, and showed a nostalgic smile: "It's okay." Perona is very sensible and the people in the village are also very nice to us. Can you imagine? At that time, Perona and I had the greatest dream of going to the 'Shell Restaurant' in the town of Alghero. After surviving the first few years, Perona and I teamed up to make our first deal - hunting down the leader of a nearby vicious little pirate group. 700,000 berry, this is our first big income. ”
Haoxue laughed: "700,000 Berry! Enough for the two of you to have a big meal, right? ”
"Unfortunately, we didn't eat it." Victor shrugged his shoulders: "Most of this money was used by us to buy books and repair houses, and there were tens of thousands of Berry left, and I bought a bunch of sumptuous ingredients from a passing merchant and made a dinner for Perona at home." It turned out that I had no talent for cooking, and we both ended up eating the burnt food. Later, she never let me cook again, which is a pity, but I think there is still room for improvement in my cooking skills. ”
"Perona knew I wanted to go to sea, so she worked hard to learn about sailing. While other children spend their childhoods playing and playing, she spends her days soaking in boring books or exercising the ghost fruit. I've always felt indebted to her......"
Victor raised his glass and drank it all, then looked at the empty glass in his hand and was a little distracted: "That girl actually likes rock music very much, and she also likes to read fashion magazines, and always dresses up the only bear doll in the family in dark gothic style...... I know it all. ”
Maybe it's the effect of alcohol, but the leader of the world's largest mafia, who always shows people with a smile on weekdays, has a slightly melancholy look at the moment.
Hao Xue scratched the back of her head, and didn't know what to say, so she decided to change the topic: "What are you going to do with that 'crescent hunter'?" ”
"She's awake?" Victor's face regained his calm: "You can recover from such a serious injury, the recovery power of the animal department is really terrifying." ”
"I woke up about 20 minutes ago." Hao Xue undeniably took out his pocket watch and looked at it, this pocket watch was still a brand-name product that everyone bought together in the Spring Queen City of St. Poplar, and everyone in the team had a piece at that time: "That guy has been locked in the shackles of Hailou stone." She has been clamoring to see you, and wants to join 'Coral' to atone for her sins. ”
"No." Victor refused, without thinking: "This lady Caterina can be called infamous, and the reason why she is called the 'Crescent Hunter' is also because she likes to collect the heads of beautiful women, which is simply perverted. ”
"Kill her then?" With that, Hao Xue stood up and prepared to set off to kill the 'Crescent Hunter' with his own hands.
Victor waved his hand: "Don't worry, lock it up with Hailou stone shackles first, she is still a little useful." How did Kidd and Kira think about it? Do you have a goal? ”
"Those two silly boys......" Haoxue touched the short whisker on his chin: "Kidd is very interested in two Devil Fruits, but he didn't know which one to eat, Kira is more interested in scythe-type weapons, and he also has some ideas about a Devil Fruit." ”
"Scythe...... Then give Kira the famous sword 'Sea Crack' that you found in the treasure house of the Serpent King. ”
Victor was a little puzzled: "What are the Devil Fruits they have chosen?" ”
"Kira is interested in the 'praying mantis' form of the animal-based insect fruit." Hao Xue recalled: "Kidd took a fancy to the animal bird fruit 'Royal Albatross' form and the superhuman magnetic fruit, but he hadn't decided which one to choose. ”
"Magnetic Fruit?" Victor remembered, "The Devil Fruit I got in the basement of the Southern Outpost in Jestewn in the City of Yesterday......"
In the original comics, Kidd should have eaten this superhuman magnetic fruit, while Kira didn't eat any fruit. Now I think that they have been influenced by their dear cousin Gurado, and they are even more fond of animal-based devil fruits.
But now that I think about it, almost all of the cadres on my side are Devil Fruit abilities, and it's really a bit of a headache to really encounter a master who uses Hailou Stone weapons or encounter a naval battle.
"I'll call the shots for Kidd, give him that superhuman magnetic fruit." Victor made a direct decision: "The mantis fruit and the sickle are also directly handed over to Kira, let these two boys follow Gurado to exercise well." ”
"Got it." Hao Xue knew that Victor had always been very generous to his own people, and in the eyes of outsiders, the incomparably precious Devil Fruit and the Quick Sword were unequivocal.
At this moment, the amplification equipment at the top of the palace suddenly rang.
[Boss, you're on the top floor, right? There is a phone bug ringing, this sign is...... Moonlight Moria! 】
