An hour later,

"Have you calmed down, why is there so much hostility towards us all of a sudden?"

On the beach on the edge of this empty island called 'Bika', there are lying on the ground with soldiers of the sky island who have been 'forced to calm down', and there are even two 'priests'.

"No... Impossible..."

The two 'priests', also dressed in white robes, but much more ornate, looked up at the man who had suppressed the 'army of the gods' they were proud of with a single finger.

"Qinghai people..."

"How can it be so strong!"

"Do you blame me for your own cooking?"

Rossi shrugged his shoulders, in all fairness, the Sky Island warriors live at an altitude of 10,000 meters all year round, and they are used to these thin air, coupled with all kinds of strange 'shells' in their hands, it can be said that they occupy the right time and place.

In particular, the two leading priests have mastered the primary 'domineering spirit', and they can be regarded as 'good hands' of 60 or 70 million Baileys on the sea.

However, with this bit of strength, Rossi was about to yawn.

"Say it,"

"Don't waste our time."

Rosie, who beat these guys to the ground by force, pointed his finger at the 'sea of clouds' behind him while asking!

Tear ————

A huge black and red light burst out, instantly splitting the entire 'sea of clouds' into two halves! The curved sea of rippling blue waves 10,000 meters below is revealed.

？！

Whether it was the Sky Island soldiers lying on the beach, the priests, or the Sky Island residents hiding behind the city buildings in front of them to peek, their brains collectively crashed at this moment, leaving only a blank space.

"This... This... This..."

The 'priest' lying on the ground can't say a complete sentence, this is simply bullying! They also stayed at the fighting style of mixing fists and feet with 'cloud shells', 'fire-breathing shells', and 'platoon shells'.

As a result, this young man from Qinghai cut the entire sea of clouds with one finger -

voted for it,

What are you struggling with?

"A few adults from Qinghai,"

Just as the heads of the soldiers and priests lying flat on the ground were buzzing, not knowing what to do, a teenager walked up from the side of the beach.

"I can explain it to you."

？

Dressed in a gray robe full of suspicious stains, the visitor was barefoot, leaning forward slightly, and with a flattering smile on his face: it was an expression formed by years of oppression.

His head was wrapped in an equally gray dirty bandana, and his long earlobes hung down to his chest.

This guy isn't...

"Anilu,"

Before the earthly priest could speak, Rossi had already 'foreseen the future' and confirmed the identity of the coming.

"Adults know me?"

A hint of surprise flashed on the face of the young man who was about the same age as Rosie, and then he reacted and hurriedly bowed his head.

"I'm sorry, but I'm talking too much."

···

Is this humble image really the future Anilu who calls himself 'God'?

Rosie's sights swept by, and he sensed a deep unwillingness, anger, and desire to destroy beneath Anilu's respectful exterior.

That's right, it seems that Anilu hasn't eaten the 'Thunder Fruit' yet.

"Tell me, why are the people here suddenly so hostile to us?"

Anilu, who bowed his head, glanced at the soldiers and priests on Tang Man's beach, and a trace of joy crossed his eyes, and then immediately turned into a deferential attitude.

"A few adults, why don't you go to my... A story at home. ”

After saying that, the young Anilu immediately promised:

"Please rest assured, with the strength of a few people, I will never dare to use any crooked brains."

"Woohahaha, interesting."

Diamantirossi tilted his head,

"Rosie, this guy is going to sacrifice himself to protect the city."

"Hmm,"

Regarding Diamanti's judgment, Rossi was noncommittal.

On the surface, this is true, but Rossi knows very well: in the future, after Anilu eats the 'Thunder Fruit', the first thing he will do is destroy his hometown: this empty island city called 'Bica'!

Now it seems that this guy has a deep grudge against the city.

"Lead the way,"

Now that he has met an 'acquaintance', Rosie simply listens to what the other party has to say, as for the soldiers and priests of Bica, who are full of beaches:

"Optimistic about our ship,"

"If I can tear apart the 'Sea of Clouds', I can also crack the 'Cloud Island', don't force me to kill."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Facing Rosie, who had just cut through the sea of clouds with one finger, these soldier officers dared to say half a word? Naturally, they nodded like onions, and the four of Rossi had already left under the respectful leadership of Anilu.

"Anilu..."

Looking at the four people who were led away by the respectful boy, the priest who slowly got up from the beach had a complicated expression.

Isn't it too much for himself and the city to treat him like that before?

————

"I'm sorry, the environment here has wronged a few adults."

Unlike the white, majestic temples, neat streets, and green trees of the city, the cave next to the island is dark, narrow, and dirty... It was filled with the smell of grease, and there were all kinds of gears and machinery everywhere.

"It's okay,"

Rosie pulled a huge steel gear as a chair and walked down, seeing him like this, Diamanti, Oni, and Gary all found a place to sit down.

"Tell me, why is this city so hateful to 'technology'?"

As he said this, Rossi's gaze swept over the cave, and he already had a rough guess about what happened to Anilu.

And as Anilu spoke, the thought of 'it was so' crossed Rosie's mind.

Actually, it's not hard to guess, because Rossi is clear:

Whether it's this empty island 'Bica', or 'Angel Island', or Gaya, who used to be in the sea below and was later topped by the skyscraper current, these people who like to decorate their wings on their backs are all moon people!

They are the moonmen who had to migrate from the moon to this planet thousands of years ago because of the depletion of the moon's energy.

At the same time, the 'Great Kingdom' was also established by them. It's a pity that under the siege of the Twenty Kings, the predecessor of the World Government, the huge kingdom with three ancient weapons was defeated.

Not only was he defeated, but he was almost wiped out!

The remaining people of the Sky Island have completely abandoned technology, and have become a ruling class with 'gods' and 'gods' as their ruling class, relying on various shells to fight, and even learning to see and hear domineering ordinary races.

And Gaya Island is even more exaggerated, directly degraded into a primitive tribe, if it is not for the fact that there are still some traces of their decoration, who would believe that those wild people who are still playing 'living sacrifices' were once a high-tech race?

“··· That's it,"

Anilu, sitting in a pile of parts, picked up a blueprint.

"Look, this is the 'Ark of Proverbs' that I designed to fly through the air."

"But in the eyes of all of us at Bica: technology only leads to destruction! Priests are strictly forbidden to study technology. ”

The gray turban-clad boy flashed in his eyes with reluctance, and his family profession was 'mechanic'. Father was, grandfather too, so did he.

When he was very young, his grandfather was 'sacrificed' to the gods by the people of Bika because he was researching the 'spaceship' alone.

His father, who had also studied the 'spaceship' all his life, was still clutching Anilu's arm when he was lying in poverty and bed, and his nails were digging into his flesh.

Like a ghost-like admonition... Or the commands: 'Return to the boundless land,' 'Go back to our true home,' still ringing in Anilu's ears every night.

Although Anilu, who has been good at 'camouflage' since he was a child, survives by unclogging sewers and building septic tanks for Bica's people, but in his heart:

The boundless land, the duty, or curse, that permeates their bloodline, has unwittingly become the target of Anilu!

"So,"

After saying that, Anilu's gaze fell on Gary, a cat-eared girl.

"After seeing this... After Miss, the talent of Bika made such a fuss. It can't be helped, technology will bring destruction, that's the tradition here. ”

"I see,"

Rosie nodded, not blaming the Sky Islanders of Bica.

If they live like a feudal dynasty, then they can still survive in this world.

If they dare to try to revive the 'technology' of their ancestors, they will immediately be approached by the World Government, and exterminating them will be the only end.

"Understood, but we weren't going to stay here in the first place."

Rosie stood up and patted her pants casually.

"Our purpose is another empty island called 'Angel Island', I heard that we can get to that side from here?"

"Yes,"

A trace of regret flashed in Anilu's eyes, the reason why he came forward to explain everything to Rossi and the others was naturally not kind: the city of Bica, even if it destroyed him, he would not blink an eye.

No, if he had the power, he would destroy these wastes who had forgotten the glory of their ancestors with his own hands!

Anilu's aim was to arouse the interest of these Qinghai people with the design of the 'Ark of Proverbs'.

There is no way, the materials of the Sky Island are too expensive, and the parts in this cave are still because Bika is afraid of 'technology' like a snake and scorpion, so that the Anilu family can collect these things.

But it's not enough!

Unless you have a force that is so strong that no one can beat it, you can only rely on these rumored Qinghai people who are rich in material resources.

"Wait,"

Seeing that Rosie and the others were about to leave, Anilu couldn't sit still.

The young man's face with long earlobes was constantly changing, and he finally gritted his teeth fiercely. His plan doesn't know when it will come true, and this Qinghai man in front of him:

Just by his fingers, he can cut through the white sea, this strength can no longer be described as terrifying, it is simply a god and demon!

"I know of a demon,"

Could it be—

Rosie, who was just about to leave, suddenly turned around, the devil fruit that can be connected with Anilu, what else can it be besides the 'Thunder Fruit', which is known as the first attack of the natural system?

"If you can support my research, I would like to tell you the whereabouts of this fruit!"

Anilu finally made up his mind that his goal was to return to the 'Infinite Land', and although the Devil Fruit was said to bring great power, how much could he, a descendant of a mechanic who lived in a cave, know about the situation?

Without Rosie's presence, Anilu would have been ready to give it a go.

But now there's a more secure way:

"It's a bit troublesome, but I believe it's not difficult to get it with the strength of adults."

"Oh?"

The Thunder Fruit was originally one of the purposes for Rossi to come to Sky Island. It's just that unlike the clearly dotted gold, the devil fruit knows where it is, so it was originally just prepared to follow fate.

"What do you need me to do?"

Anilu breathed a sigh of relief at Rosie's inquiry.

It's done!

Although this is only half of it, here we are:

"Kill the gods!"
