Pirate: I, Roger's son, nine-year-old admiral!
Chapter 55 Ghost Ship!
"Yo ho ho ho ho ~ yo ho ho ho..."
The high-pitched and distant singing gradually got closer, and the sound also changed from extremely subtle to slightly audible.
Dandelion and the navy soldiers, whose attention was still focused on Ig just now, also heard the faint singing, and they all raised their ears to listen carefully to identify the direction of the singing.
The singing was getting closer and closer, and with everyone listening attentively, the melody of the song gradually became clearer.
"Binx's wine..." Brother Will nodded thoughtfully, with some fragments of memories flashing in his eyes.
"Binx's wine?" Tom and a group of young navy soldiers were a little confused.
"It's normal that you don't know. This is a very old song that has been around for a long time." Uncle Will was obviously brought back memories by this melody.
"So what kind of song is this?" Tom asked next.
"You may hear it in the future. This is a pirate song. In the past, almost all pirates would sing this song." Brother Will suddenly had a sense of vicissitudes of life on his face.
"So... this is a group of pirates coming?" Tom came to the conclusion.
Brother Will nodded and said nothing.
There are pirates singing.
The meaning was already clear. The navy soldiers drew their weapons one by one and quickly got into a fighting posture.
Looking at the navy soldiers who suddenly became serious, Dandelion was still a little uncomfortable for a while. This quick reaction and neat formation were completely different from the unserious appearance just now.
But since it was a naval battle, she certainly wouldn't meddle in other people's business. She turned around and walked to her companions, dragging them to the corner one by one.
"To be honest, I think... this may not be a group of pirates," Iger turned around and said seriously, "but probably a pirate."
"A pirate?" Tom questioned, "How could a pirate come into such dangerous waters without even a single care?"
Iger already had an answer to this matter, but seeing Tom's confident expression, Iger couldn't help but have bad thoughts.
"Listen carefully, you can see that it is sung by one person, and no one else is talking. And the most important thing is that this song is much slower than Binx's Wine, isn't it?" Iger listed many details.
The navy soldiers quickly followed his reminder and listened carefully, and found that it was exactly what he said.
"Then, so what?" Tom was disdainful and didn't understand why Iger said this. "Doesn't this just mean that there is only one person singing?"
"Would you sing so sadly to a group of people in a place like this?" Iger asked.
"Hmm." Tom was momentarily asked.
That’s right!
Although Tom is only twelve years old, he has already undergone rigorous sailing training.
When going to sea, mood is very important to naval soldiers, so everyone brings a lot of wine, learns a lot of songs, and holds parties at every turn.
Everything is for the voyager's mood.
Not only that, but also the songs you sing, the food you eat and the wine you drink are all very particular.
As far as singing is concerned, I usually choose something that has a cheerful rhythm and a brain-washing melody that everyone can sing along with.
You can tell by looking at them. Every time they hold a banquet, a group of people gather around holding wine bottles and sing the cheerful naval song.
It is in this atmosphere that the boredom and depression of sailing can be eliminated.
On the contrary, singing in a slow and sad way like this is definitely a taboo for sailing on the sea!
By singing this song, not only will the crew be infected by this low mood and recall bad memories, but it will also lower morale and greatly reduce the motivation for sailing.
In the early days of navigation, people did not realize this. Many famous sailing teams died at the bottom of the sea because of the musicians on the ships.
Therefore, during subsequent overseas trips, this kind of singing was strictly prohibited unless...
No one on the ship stopped him.
Cold sweat broke out on Tom's forehead.
He suddenly remembered those sea legends that Ige told them just now!
When you encounter a boat with only one person singing on the sea, do not approach it and do not look at it.
Because it's a ghost ship.
"Do you think the legends I told you before are all false?" Ige said quietly, "Of course they are spread only after someone actually encounters them."
"No, no...it can't be..." Tom suddenly felt his blood pressure rising and he started to stutter when he spoke.
"Okay Ige, stop teasing him." Brother Will couldn't stand it anymore, glared at Ige and said.
Eagle shrugged noncommittally and said:
"Anyway, be careful, you may see something you have never seen before!"
The reason why he dared to say this was because he knew what would happen next.
In the original work, after Luffy and his party came to the Devil's Triangle, they also encountered a certain skeleton floating in it.
The atmosphere on the boat suddenly became weird.
Although everyone felt that Iger was making an inappropriate joke, the legends about the sea and the approaching singing made everyone unable to laugh. Instead, they felt a little strangely nervous.
Especially Tom.
He had even imagined the scene in which he was choked by a zombie and his head opened. His face turned pale and his body was trembling uncontrollably.
The singing was getting closer and closer, and as the singing became louder and clearer, a blurry black shadow gradually appeared in everyone's sight.
The navy soldiers looked over nervously, and Tom even narrowed his eyes.
At first it was just a vague shadow, but as the distance between the two ships got closer and closer, the outline of the ship gradually emerged.
There was a broken mast, a big hole in the jib, a large piece of the ship's side missing... even half of the helmsman's compass was missing.
There is no doubt that no matter from any direction, this is an extremely bad ship, and it is absolutely unnavigable.
Ghost ship.
The answer is self-evident.
The hearts of all the navy soldiers sank, and Tom even screamed and hid behind Brother Will.
Brother Will glanced at him, ignored him, and quickly turned his attention to the broken ship that was gradually approaching the dog-headed warship.
Everyone held their breath and waited quietly for the broken ship to gradually become level with the warship deck.
A long and thin figure emerged from the mist, with a small top hat staring at its disproportionately large head.
Finally, under the gaze of everyone, the high-pitched and melodious singing stopped, and the tall and thin figure emerged from the fog and clearly entered everyone's field of vision.
This appearance didn't matter, Tom, who was hiding behind Brother Will, simply rolled his eyes.
Next to the ship's side, I saw a skeleton holding a tea set staring at everyone with dark eyes!
