Chapter 254 The King of the Sea

In 1513 of the Haiyuan calendar, July.

East China Sea, Goa Kingdom, Windmill Village.

The weather, which was originally quite clear, was followed by a thunderstorm, and the rain poured down again.

Makino, the proprietress of the only tavern in the village, put down the rag in her hand and came to the window, looking at the weather outside the window with some concern. It is now the rainy season, and it has been raining almost every day these days. Will the child catch a cold?

The last time Makino went to Mount Golbo, the headquarters of the Dadan family, Ace and Luffy were fighting for independence. The two half-aged children built two small wooden houses by themselves outside the Dadan family's house, and then lived in Inside, I don't know if there will be rain leakage, and if they catch a cold, can the Dadan family take care of them.

And if this continues, I am afraid that the crop harvest will also be affected.

The kind Makino looked at the sky, put his hands together subconsciously, and prayed silently, another dazzling white light pierced the dark clouds, and then the rolling thunder came from the sky, and the trembling windows trembled.

But at this time, Makino had no time to marvel at how big the thunder was. She looked at the sky in amazement. When the lightning appeared just now, she clearly saw a huge umbrella-like thing appearing in her sight. Hanging a person.

Makino ran out of the door in a hurry, raised her hand to shield the rain, and searched the sky nervously, another lightning flashed by, Makino finally saw clearly at this moment, it was a person with a parachute on his back, who knew what he saw just now, Not her illusion.

Makino has seen parachutes from newspapers. William uses hot air balloons to map maps and summarize the weather. Sometimes the staff will inevitably have some accidents. For this reason, William specially allocates part of the rewards and informs them in Donghai newspapers that if local residents help These troubled technicians can get a part of the bonus.

While staring at the position of the parachute, Makino shouted for help from the people in the village. She had just discovered that the person under the parachute was motionless, and the situation might not be good.

Makino is very popular in the village. Many people who heard her shout ran out, thinking that she was in some danger. After Makino trotted to the place where the parachute landed and explained, those people Know what happened.

Several fast-running men, after Makino pointed out the direction for them, shook off Makino and ran over quickly.

The parachute finally landed in the sea outside the village. When Makino arrived panting, a group of people had already surrounded the shore, and a piece of white cloth was floating in the sea, dotted with traces of bright red blood. It was washed clean, but no one was seen.

Among the villagers on the shore, someone was shouting loudly: "Where is the fisherman? Hurry up and sail to save people!"

"Go to a doctor personally!"

After a while, the fisherman also came, panting, but he didn't intend to get on the boat: "This season is the day when the 'King of the Sea' comes out, look at the blood floating on the sea, you can never tell when the King of the Sea will come out." Will appear……."

The village chief, Up Slap, who had already arrived in a hurry, heard the words, and quickly scolded: "You are afraid of the 'King of the Sea', but you are not afraid of Morgan William? That person must belong to him. If you let him Knowing that we will not help, our village will definitely not have a good result!"

"Isn't Lieutenant General Karp here..." the fisherman muttered unwillingly.

"Garp may not come back once a year? He doesn't even care about bandits on the edge of our village! You count on him?" Up Slap tapped his crutch angrily, "Are you going? Are you not going?" , I’ll jump down to save people myself!”

In this kind of weather, even other young people dare not go into the water. Letting an old man like Up Slap jump into the sea to save others is purely to send him to his death. Naturally, the fisherman can't let him do this, so he has no choice but to drive Where the little fishing boat floats like a white parachute.

Inclement weather, coupled with the deterrence of the King of the Sea, the fishermen and the helpers on the boat also did not dare to go into the water. When they reached the falling point, they could only hold on to the corner of the parachute, trying to drag people onto the boat.

Fortunately, the few people moved swiftly and dragged the person under the umbrella out of the sea in a short while. With the light of the lightning, they could clearly see that this was a man with a somewhat ferocious complexion, but his eyes were closed tightly. died.

When the man in the sea was pulled to the side of the boat, the young men on the boat couldn't help but let out an exclamation. Only then did they realize that the man had all kinds of scars all over his body, some of which were even deep enough to show his bones. One feels fear just by looking at it.

"He won't die, will he?" the young man said worriedly.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up!" the fisherman urged without caring so much.

Just when they were about to drag the man in the sea onto the boat, a sudden change occurred, a black shadow suddenly sprang out from the bottom of the sea without a sound, and bit the man in the sea.

"The king of the sea!" The fisherman and the young man exclaimed, and they released their hands at the same time.

It was a huge fish, its head alone was about the size of a fishing boat, and its criss-crossed teeth were like sharp knives, deeply inserted into the man's waist.

The originally comatose man woke up from the severe pain, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the blood-red eyes of the King of the Near Sea.

One person and one beast looked at each other, and the eyes of the humans who were regarded as prey by the King of the Sea showed no fear and cowardice, but full of viciousness and tyranny.

The man let out an angry roar, and slammed his paw directly at one eye of the King of the Sea. His speed was so fast that the King of the Sea didn't even have time to react. One eye was smashed, and half of the man's arm almost sank into the sea. In the eye sockets of the king.

The man was covered in blood and had a ferocious face. With one hand, he tore out the eyeballs and the extraocular muscles behind the King of the Sea.

The King of the Sea howled and threw the man out of his mouth. The momentary staring at each other and the injury he had just received made him fear the human beings he didn't pay attention to at first. He twisted his body and jumped into the sea again. , escaped.

The fisherman and his buddy stared blankly at the man who fell into the water and chased away the well-known king of the offshore, even holding the eyeball of the king of the offshore.

It's just that the two of them quickly came to their senses and hurriedly pulled the man onto the boat. This time, no accident happened again.

After the man got on the boat, he began to vomit blood profusely, his breath was weak, his complexion was pale, and the blood flowed from the wound to the deck, but his hands held tightly to the parachute bag behind him.

Neither the fisherman nor the man could pull it away, so they could only cut the parachute rope with a knife, allowing the man to continue to carry the umbrella bag.

"Wake up, don't die!" On the way to the shore, the young man shouted loudly in the man's ear, "What's your name? Are you from the Kingdom of Navia?"

"I, it's Harden..." Harden said with difficulty, his eyes widened, "Go find... Morgan, Morgan William..., hurry up!"
