Arceus’ Pirate Journey

Click, click.

One of Nine Snakes' warriors poked the white sphere with a long spear, and the feedback from the gun barrel told her that the white thing seemed to be some kind of metal.

Just when they were wondering what it was, the sphere suddenly softened and flowed down like liquid wax.

As the white object melted, several people who looked miserable and even in pieces appeared in the spherical semicircle.

"Well done Galdino, you can be considered alive now."

Inside the ball was Bucky and his group. When everyone was running for their lives, Bucky and Mr. 3 found a new way and made a huge candle ball to wrap them in it.

The density of wax allows them to float on the sea, and the hardness of steel allows them to evade most external attacks. It once became Noah's Ark in the apocalypse.

However, because of its spherical shape, the white ball was not stable and kept floating around. It was also affected by impacts, eventually sending them to the island like a gashapon.

"We're next!"

Before Bucky could give the order, the sharp tip of the gun was already pointed at his nose.

"Lord Snake Ji, there is another group of men. How should we deal with these people?"

"Wait a minute. Is anyone familiar with them?"

In view of the fact that the Straw Hat Gang had appeared before, Hancock did not take action immediately, but asked Manderfish.

After receiving no reply, she was ready to take action.

"Wait a minute, Boya Hancock, it's me, Bucky, who used to be in the Shichibukai with you! We know each other!"

"I'm not familiar with you, sweet and sweet wind!"

As pink light waves swept across, a group of stone statues appeared on the beach, and Hancock turned around and left.

Without contrast, there is no feeling. These stone statues turned from living people are reminding the group of people who accidentally entered the island that the owner here is not a friendly person.

The timid trio had already instinctively hugged each other. This scene of being transformed into a living person was indeed a bit scary.

The two Heracross were having a daily conversation, and Luffy was facing a decision. He was very hungry now, but their chef was unconscious.

It is not difficult to wake up Sanji, but it is very dangerous to wake him up. Judging from Sanji's situation, letting him wake up here will most likely only harm him.

Due to serious stealing behavior, Sanji has replaced it with a locked refrigerator. Except for him, outsiders cannot open the giant refrigerator where food is stored. At this time, Luffy can only try to find foreign help.

"Ah, I'm so hungry, Uta, do you have anything to eat? I missed two meals before while hunting for treasure."

Because he subconsciously believed that the treasure was inexhaustible meat, Luffy deliberately emptied his stomach.

With his food intake of five meals a day, his strong digestion ability has long left his stomach empty.

"Yes, yes, but you probably aren't interested."

Uta called to Ah Xian who was standing aside, and took out a food box from the small bag on its back, which contained an extremely vegetarian salad.

"This is."

"Fat-reducing meals. I'm trying to control my body shape recently. I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to get enough of these things more than ten years ago."

Induced by hunger, Luffy always behaves irrationally. After a brief thought, he looked at the owner of the island.

"Tela Nan, you said the owner here is the pirate empress, right?"

"That's the theory. What do you want to do?"

"Ask her for something to eat, Hancock! Can you give me some meat? I'm really hungry!"

"Unreasonable people! Letting you live on the island temporarily is already a great tolerance. There is no extra food for you here. You can even pronounce my concubine's name wrong. If it were normal times, you and those people would have been invaded long ago. Just like the others, they turned into stone!"

Luffy's words had no follow-up, because he was once again pushed back by his partner.

"That's enough, Luffy, don't offend another former Shichibukai for such inexplicable reasons!"

"Yes, there are also those pirates from Hundred Beasts here, don't draw attention to something as trivial as your belly!"

"What, my stomach is a serious matter, okay? We can give you money, or dismantle the refrigerator first."

"no!"

Hearing the word money, Nami, the highest force on the ship, awakened and suppressed Luffy's arrogance with terrifying force.

Looking at Nami's white-smoking fist, Uta took a step back. If she remembered correctly, Tezoro had the same reaction when practicing advanced weapon colors.

"Luffy, your boat is really interesting. How about I let you eat something in your sleep?"

During the voyage, both food and water are important supplies, and they need to be managed by dedicated personnel when on a pirate ship. This is not the fruit of all beasts, and it does not belong to Uta's territory. Besides, she knows how much Luffy eats.

Instead of giving him the supplies on the ship, she found another way. As long as he entered the world of songs, she could satisfy Luffy by eating as much as he wanted.

Although the body is not replenished, it can make the spirit no longer hungry.

"Can I also be full in my dreams?"

Snap.

Before Uta could answer Luffy, another figure appeared on the island, but this time there was no new fight.

"Sister Olga? You finally came here. You weren't injured. Are you tired?"

Hancock's attitude changed 180 degrees in an instant, and he came to Olga and asked questions, fearing that something might happen to her.

"Don't worry, don't worry, nothing happened. Governor Kaido is having a lot of fun playing with them now. It will probably take two or three days. During this time, I can have a good rest. Are the hot springs on the island still there?"

"This is gone."

"That's such a shame."

Kaido moved the entire island. Without the heating of underground magma, the hot springs naturally disappeared. Now the rivers on the island rely on some underground caves to circulate. If it takes too long, it will only be a matter of time before they dry up.

"Well, Miss Olga, how about Shanks?"

"Shanks? Don't worry, he can handle it. Governor Kaido is here too. He can tell right from wrong. Probably."

In the end, Olga lost her confidence. After all, Kaido was not someone worth relying on in this regard.

The smell of fighting on the island told Olga that the three monsters were still fine now.

"What are you all doing standing here? Find a place to rest. You can even have a banquet. They won't be able to finish it for a while."

"I understand what you mean, sister Olga."

Half an hour later, something happened that made Luffy, a heartless person, jealous. Just a few dozen meters away from him, a large amount of food was gathered together, as if a banquet was about to be held.

"I want to attend the banquet too! I want to attend too!"

Luffy rolled around on the ground in a playful posture, trying to get his friends to agree with his idea, but unfortunately the Straw Hats had long been immune to this kind of thing.

"Is that the circus you invited?"

"No, it's just that their captain is an acquaintance of Miss Uta, so they are allowed to stay here."

"Is that so? Wait a minute, is that Heracross? The people on this ship are really smart."

"Sister Olga, that group is the one that Batman reported two years ago, and the previous chaos on Cake Island has something to do with them."

Manderfish introduced the situation of the Straw Hats to the side. After all, Olga herself didn't pay much attention to this kind of newcomers.

"That's it, hey! Stop shouting and come together. It's just a meal!"

"Thank you! You are such a good person!"

After receiving the invitation from the other party, Luffy's endurance limit was immediately broken, and he began to replenish food crazily, and even started to show off his performance art as food on the way.

For Luffy, as long as you give him meat to eat, he will assume that you are a good person.

But others don't think so.

"Is she really a good person?"

"Good guy? That's one of the three, no, four disasters, Kaido's first team member, Phantom Disaster Olga.

According to the information I have collected, she caused the least damage, but may have the worst personality."

Luo sat aside and had no appetite. He just looked at Luffy with a slightly worried look. Uta was just as worried as him, but Uta was worried about the situation with Shanks.

Until night falls, the fighting has no intention of stopping, but the Nine Snakes tonight is destined to be lively. As the stars shine on the beach, another figure approaches from the distant sea.

The Nine Snake warriors in charge of the night watch did not capture any trace of this man and let him walk directly into the rest area on the island.

"Girls, don't stay up late all the time."

"Shanks?!"

The last person to enter Nine Snakes was Shanks. After a fierce battle during the day, he was so bad that Barrett and Kaido gradually lost interest. Finally, after nightfall, he found a suitable opportunity. Escape from the battle smoothly.

After escaping, he followed the direction where Olga had retreated, and finally found Nine Snakes.

"You weren't hurt, were you?"

Uta's observation of Shanks is very similar to Hancock's observation of Olga, but it is a different emotion.

"It's okay. It's not even a day. The warm-up has just ended. If the fight continues, those two lunatics might cause something to happen."

After relaxing his arms, Shanks measured Uta's height.

"Sure enough, you have grown taller and grown up. Wait, I have a phone call."

Shanks was about to say something when a slight vibration suddenly came from his inner pocket.

"I'll be back soon. You wait for me here."

Shanks' figure disappeared into the night again. Black clouds covered the bright moonlight, making the remaining starlight around them extremely dim. The waves crashed on the beach, and the chirping of some insects could also be heard in the jungle.

"Hello."

"it's me."

"I know it's you. No one will make this call but you. What do you want to say?"

The person on the other end of the phone was none other than a member of the Five Old Stars, the God of Scientific Defense, Jaygo Lucia Satan.

"Shanks, we need to know a question, why are you appearing where you are, and what is the relationship between you and Douglas Barrett, who were also Roger's crew members."

"It doesn't matter, I just came to the concert."

"."

There was a moment of silence on the other side of the phone. Shanks' answer made Sartan silent for a long time, and finally he just let out a long sigh.

"Shanks, at this time, are you still answering us with such perfunctory words?"

"What I told is the truth from beginning to end. If you don't believe it, what can I do?"

Human beings are more willing to believe what they believe in their hearts. When they get an answer that is contrary to their own ideas, many people's first thought is not that they are wrong, but that the other person is lying.

They will not check their own results, but will prove that the other party is wrong. This characteristic is even more obvious among some arrogant people in power.

Moreover, there seems to be no problem with Shanks, but there are problems everywhere.

He is an emperor of the sea, so it's okay if he wants to watch a concert. It would be more reasonable to just sail to a nearby place and take a few subordinates with him.

Shanks arrived here alone and unnoticed, not even the navy's surveillance ship noticed.

And the place where he appeared happened to be where Barrett was planning the operation. What's more coincidental was that Kaido took a detour and came here, setting off a melee here.

Shanks said that this was just a coincidence. He was just a fan of the singer, so he came here. Sartan couldn't believe it.

This is just like Quinn saying that everything had nothing to do with him after using the grace of nature in front of Akainu to awaken the consciousness of the animal fruit, which is hard to believe.

People who don't know the inside story will just think it's a joke.

"Kaido flew to you for a few days just to have a drink, but now you're sneaking around for a few days just to attend the concert. Don't you think it's strange?"

"Maybe a little bit, but that's the truth.

Why, do you have to believe me if I tell you that we are plotting a big conspiracy to subvert the world? "

"Sure enough, is this your purpose?"

Shanks, who was exhausted physically and mentally by the two fighting maniacs, didn't want to speak at all. He immediately wanted to hang up the phone, but Stan hadn't finished speaking.

"The revolutionary army and pirates, their seemingly fanaticism is just the last act of madness. Don't underestimate the foundation of the World Government. The current situation is not that they are strong, but we haven't really taken action yet."

"How dare you say that."

"This is a fact. I am just stating that the order seems to be collapsing, but in fact this is just a restart process. Shanks, you'd better not forget your identity, so as to avoid being erased."

"Identity? I am a pirate, Satan. Do pirates have to report to you when they do things?"

Shanks hung up the phone directly. In Shanks' opinion, these five old guys had been sitting in the office for too long. For the sake of the people he valued, he should change his thinking.

He understands that communicating with a group of people who don't trust him will not yield results. Since the five meeting leaders like to brainstorm in the office, let them take their time.

"I'm afraid things are really going to change now."

Looking at the stars above his head, Shanks also smelled an unusual flavor and made a different decision.

And there were people in Mariegio who thought the same thing.

"Sure enough, his thoughts are no longer within the scope of our speculation."

"That's all he can do. It's his own choice. He can't blame us."

When trust breaks down, the already fragile connection naturally falls apart.

After hanging up the communication from there, Shanks didn't feel any psychological burden. He was originally a pirate and had been operating as a pirate on the sea for so many years.

It's just that the relationship background is a little more complicated and I can talk to some special people.

When he returned, Uta was waiting for him by the fire. Not far away, he could see Luffy sleeping soundly with a swollen belly. He could sleep like this in the "enemy camp" It was just him.

The other companions were with the Sunshine. For a moment, Shanks had the feeling that he had returned to a time more than ten years ago, when Luffy would sleep in the open space of Windmill Village after eating.

Uta was by his side, listening to his story about the stars in the sky. In the blink of an eye, these people had grown up.

"Uta, do you still remember the original agreement?"

"Remember, when I became the world's number one singer, you took me back. I have already achieved this goal, right? I don't think any of my peers are more popular than me now.

But Shanks, you seem to have been busy with something. "

"It's almost over. When all this is over, let's go on a nice trip. In the meantime, the entire pirate group will be your accompanist."

"Hmph, if you were to perform on stage at your level, you would be heard to have problems immediately, but with me here, I will definitely be able to make up for it."

"So, you should stay there for the time being. I don't like Kaido's character, but he will not abandon everything over there at Beast Fruit. In the current sea, your place is the safest."

Shanks made this decision after hanging up the call from Sartan. He and the Five Old Stars were already hiding from each other.

The Five Old Stars didn’t know what he was thinking, and he didn’t know what the Five Old Stars were hiding. No one could guarantee that these were the Holy Flame and the Knights of God.

Moreover, Shanks himself has a territory to protect. Although he is unwilling to admit it, he must face the fact that he does not have the means to deal with the Virgin Flame.

On the contrary, there are hundreds of beasts.

"The order they pay attention to is also part of the rules."

"Shanks, what did you say?"

"Huh? I said it would be an interesting voyage then."

"Excuse me, although you are a bit inappropriate, but what we just said is called planting a flag, and there may be very metaphysical factors in it."

Olga's voice came over, and Shanks also noticed more than one aura. It seemed that many people had noticed him.

This is normal. The volume of his chat with Uta is not too low. Men are a rare species here. It is reasonable for the soldiers on night watch to notice him.

"Flag planting? Interesting description."

"Why are you here? Governor Kaido actually asked you to leave."

"He didn't want me to leave. Didn't you see that it took me a whole day to escape from those two lunatics? I wasted a lot of time by accompanying them in the warm-up battle. It's really fatal when your governor goes crazy."

When Shanks said this, some people couldn't help but look at the islands in the distance. They didn't understand why a battle of this level was called a warm-up.

"Indeed, the only one who can suppress him is Lord Arceus."

"Then what do you do when he goes crazy?"

"Hide behind Quinn, or go find our eldest lady. It will be safer."

"."

Facts have proved that Shanks still does not understand the strange situation inside the beasts, nor does he understand the pot culture circulating among them.

After all, a pot can also be used as a shield.

It was already dark, so Shanks didn't waste too much time. Instead, he let Uta go back to sleep and left some remaining things until dawn the next day.

The next day, Luffy woke up feeling short of breath.

"Who is it! Don't pinch other people's noses! Shanks?!"

"Long time no see, Luffy, you've become stronger and have moved to the new world."

"Of course, that's right! Hat, I brought the hat you asked me to keep for you. Although it broke a few times on the road, everyone helped me repair it!"

"I saw it, but it's still a little weak now. Give it back to me when you become stronger. Now it's better to keep it in your hands."

After reminiscing about old times and asking about Luffy's plans, Shanks decided to send Luffy and the others away first. Nine Snakes was not a suitable place for them to stay.

"That's what I thought. If it weren't for waiting for you, we should have left last night."

This island is a fatal island for Sanji. In order to prevent accidents, Luo even gave Sanji an injection of anesthesia yesterday, just to prevent him from dying of blood loss when he woke up.

Now that everything he wanted to do was done, Luffy naturally wanted to continue taking action.

"Okay, then I'll give you a ride."

Looking into the distance, Shanks swung a knife towards the sea, and the sea nearly split under the blow.

"Go in this direction and you will be able to return to the normal route. Don't worry, no one will disturb you on the way."

Later, after saying goodbye to the people on the island, the Sunshine embarked on its voyage again, and Shanks also discovered a group of unlucky people on the island.

"Is this the petrification of Tiantian Fruit? Can you give me a favor and remove the petrification of these people first, and I will let them leave."

Knocked on Bucky's face, although they were petrified, these people were not broken into pieces, so there was still a chance of rescue.

Shanks' face was somewhat useful here, but before Hancock took action, Shanks suddenly had a new problem.

"Wait a minute, if you draw something on them now, will it remain after they are de-petrified?"

"I don't know, I've never tried anything boring like that."

"Then you can try it now."

To be precise, none of the current Sea Emperors are very normal, but their abnormal aspects are different. A group of people on the island looked at Shanks and left a lot of graffiti on Bucky like a child. Only then did Hancock lift his petrification.
