Chapter 150: The Seal of Contract/Hierarchy/Fanged City
Klockdahl stretched out the golden hook in his left hand, scraped a layer of powder off the rough stone wall, and pinched a part of it with his right finger and rubbed it.
Not dreaming.
David Jones, really only used a trident to carve out a waterless place at the bottom of the sea at a depth of 10,000 meters, and a city rose from the ground.
Ever since he boarded the Terror Ghost, he'd been able to see all sorts of incredible things.
Even with mental preparation, he was shocked this time.
Klockdahl's eyes twinkle above the stitches on the bridge of his nose.
Wearing a thick fur coat, he crossed the stone pillars and saw Hachi and Polki walking towards David Jones on the throne.
They are also going to swear allegiance to David Jones and put the "seal of the contract" on it.
The timing is just right.
Hachi wouldn't have thought of this, most likely it was Chloe or Yarrita who reminded the two of them.
The so-called "seal of contract" is the mark of the person who made a 100-year contract with David Jones.
The sigil resembles the pirate flag, but is more hideous and has denser tentacles.
This imprint appeared on the bodies of Chloe, Yarrita, and others, who originally made a contract with David Jones.
Hachi and Polki will also have the same mark after completing the contract.
Klockdahl calmly watched Hachi and Polki half-kneel in front of David Jones.
David Jones lifted the black trident and tapped it on each of them, causing a faint green glow to light up on them.
Half an hour later, Hachi and Porki's light dissipated, and the contract was completed.
As a result, in the entire Davy Jones Pirates, only he and Bucky are left, and they have not yet been branded with the seal of the contract.
In other pirates, this may be seen as a sign of betrayal and dissent.
But David Jones never took it seriously, and never even mentioned the contract again.
It was as if he knew that Crocodall and Bucky would come to him sooner or later.
Klockdahl admits in his heart that the self-healing regeneration and physique increase he gains from branding the seal of the contract are quite tempting to him.
At least when his sand and gravel are condensed, he can fight with people with domineering energy, and self-healing and regeneration and physical enhancement will provide him with confidence.
But he still hasn't given up on his ambitions entirely.
It was a long-cherished wish he had for many years, and once he chose to let go and assist David Jones, then there was no going back.
For what reason did Bucky avoid the contract?
Klockdahl didn't know, but probably it was the reason for the boredom.
His previous bounty was 81 million Baileys, while Bucky was 95 million Baileys.
He has always wondered why this unsightly, even somewhat funny "clown" has a bounty on him.
While Klockdahl was thinking, he saw Arrita walk in from outside the palace.
She took off her white wide-brimmed hat, and the shadow under her slender body was stretched long.
"Captain David Jones." She licked her red lips and said calmly, "There is another group of enemies from the direction of Fish-Man Island, there may be tens of thousands of fishmen and mermaids, and the vanguard is the same as the two scouts before, all riding sea beasts. ”
Fish-men, David Jones has seen quite a few.
David Jones's memory of the merfolk is still stuck in the group of carnivorous banshees he has seen in the thick sea fog, with graceful singing voices and beautiful appearances, and he is not very curious about them.
It should be said that neither the mermaid nor the fish-man took it to heart.
"Send them away."
He used the Trident to build himself another concert hall larger than the one inside the horror ghost.
There is also a pipe organ as high as a hill, and it is better to play a song than to meet the uninvited guests.
"Yes."
Yarrita answered, knowing Captain David Jones' attitude of doing whatever they wanted.
——
The troops of the New Fish-Man Pirates have tens of thousands of fishmen, which Hodi has slowly gathered over the years.
He believed that by bringing back David Jones's head, his prestige would be enhanced, and it would be easier to recruit troops in the future.
If you drive a group of human slaves, the scale at that time will not be tens of thousands, but probably hundreds of thousands.
Their pirate flag is a flag with a black background, with a sun sigil in it, and a mark of a human head falling to the ground, which is self-evident.
Vander Dyken sits in a bubble, held up by the giant fish-man Mianzumi.
He glanced back at the vast army and was speechless.
"Captain Hody, my good brother." He turned his head and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to gather so many people silently, and you didn't know anything about me before." ”
Hody rode on a sea lion and hooked the corners of his mouth:
"Dragon Palace City only cares about the glamour of Fish-Man Island, and Jinping is busy waging his tail and begging for mercy to the outside world, and no one cares about these fish-people who are turning around in the gutter, they are my basic plate."
"Vander Dyken, you know what? Even inside Fish-Man Island, our own people are oppressing our own people. You see, are most of the people in the ruling layer merfolk? At the bottom, are most of them fish-people? ”
He raised his strong arm again and pointed back.
In the rear of the new Fish-Man Pirate Troop, the people from Fish-Man Island were scattered and followed.
There were merfolk and merfolk there, and they came spontaneously.
"After this great victory, you will be whitewashed as one of us and raised to the high position of a hero." "And I, on the other hand, will gain more people's hearts and minds and let them know who can protect them in these turbulent times." ”
"It's not 'Whitebeard', it's not Jinping, it's not Ryugu Castle, it's us. Only we can protect them. ”
Vander Dyken was a wanted criminal on Fish-Man Island, and when he saw the residents of Fish-Man Island, he couldn't help but press the brim of his hat with his left hand to cover his face.
"Captain Hody, you sent someone to lure three princes out, and let people stab two of them to death with poisonous daggers, isn't this plan too rough, maybe King Neptune is already suspicious......"
Hody waved his hand.
"Don't say that Neptune will be suspicious, I believe that there are still a lot of smart people on Fish-Man Island, and they won't fully believe the news we spread."
"Then you still ......"
"They don't believe it now, they don't take sides, it doesn't matter. When Whitebeard falls, the pirates smell blood and swarm in to wreak havoc on Fish-Man Island, and they'll believe us. ”
When the time comes, they will have to believe if they don't believe it, because they have no choice.
Even they have to take the initiative to stand up for Hodi, establish his prestige for him, and unite the people.
This is the only way Fish-Man Island can be preserved.
"You seem to be convinced of Whitebeard's demise."
"Lady Xia Li's prophecy has never been disappointed, and besides, which 'Four Emperors' dare to say that after facing the elite of the Navy Headquarters, they can still retreat?"
Hody burst out laughing.
"If there are not a few captains killed on the 'Whitebeard' side in this big battle, I think that the Navy Headquarters is playing a game, colluding with the 'Whitebeard' to raise his own respect."
"That's right, hey, hey......"
At this time, one of the cadres, the hammerhead shark man Toth, swam back on a sea beast.
He carried on his shoulders a large weapon, which I don't know what to call a warhammer or a hammer.
"Captain Hody, we're here."
Thoth's flat face showed a look of surprise, as if he had seen something strange and strange.
"Is there anything out of the ordinary?"
"Hmm...... Captain Hody, they really built a city in front of it......"
Hehe.
Hoddy tightened the reins and made the sea lion turn in a different direction.
He rode a sea lion and swam quickly to a huge submarine ridge, and then he saw the city and fortress in the mouth of Toth.
The scout said that the city and fortress were about the size of Fish-Man Island, and they were not lying.
Its castles, towers, drawbridges, walls, etc., are all gray and black.
The spire of the tower is like fangs, and the window lattice is like the pupils of a beast, rising from the ground, hideous and abnormal.
High in the sky above the city, a "sun" or "moon" hangs.
It glowed a faint green, and after a while it turned scarlet blood, alternating between them.
Even more peculiar, the city is located like a transparent, inverted bowl that blocks the surrounding sea.
The Dreadful Ghost ran aground quietly in the corners of the city walls.
A large, orange North Sea monster was lying on top of a fanged castle, its many tentacles clinging to the spire, making it its new lair.
Especially Hody, when he first saw this scene, he couldn't help but be thrilled and frowned, not to mention the others.
How did the Davy Jones Pirates build such a massive city in one day? How is this done?
Hody had many conjectures in mind, but none had a definite answer.
Doubts made him hesitate, and the appearance of Van der Decon, who had broken his right hand, reaffirmed his resolve.
I can't let Vander Dyken see the joke, and I can't let the people who follow me see that I'm hesitant. Hody thought to himself.
He immediately gave the order and prepared to storm it.
