Pirate: My partner is too crooked

"Hey!!!"

Hearing Lin Zhi's loud announcement, all Bika residents, including the guard captain Gross, were so shocked that their eyes jumped out of their sockets, and their jaws dropped to the ground in an exaggerated manner.

Looking at the lovely girl with white skin and beauty in front of them, they really couldn't connect it with words like "god".

The escort soldiers who attended the banquet on the Infinite Dream last night looked at Aqua with wide eyes and shock.

This group of people had witnessed Aqua's unusual wisdom with their own eyes, and even had arguments with her about the goddess.

And now, the young Lanhai man actually told them that Aqua had really passed the God's Trial and became the "god" in historical legends? !

"Ah, ah?"

Not to mention this group of ordinary people, even Aqua herself was extremely stunned by Lin Zhi's speech.

As if to confirm, she raised the back of her hand with a dull expression and pointed at herself stiffly.

"Alas, after going through many dangers, I have obviously eliminated other participants, but I didn't expect that I still lost in the last step."

Lin Zhi didn't pay attention to everyone's surprised expression at all, and just sighed heavily with a frown on his face.

The reason why he gave the title of god to Aqua was naturally to gain the faith of the islanders and restore more of Aqua's divine power.

It is completely different from the various towns and villages they have experienced before. There are legends about gods on Bika Island itself.

The residents who have lived and grown up here have no doubts about the existence of God and are quite reverent.

Let Aqua become the god in their hearts, and the power of faith gained from this will be absolutely pure and extremely effective!

In contrast, if he appeared in front of the residents as a thunder god, Aqua would miss this wave of small enhancements.

Although there is suspicion of fraud, Lin Zhi is a businessman with a flexible bottom line.

How can you miss out on something you can get for free?

"Huh? Lin Zhi, what are you talking about? She is the noble goddess of water. Do you want to use that..."

Aqua didn't realize the meaning of Lin Zhi's words at all.

Even if she knew, she, being arrogant by nature, would not accept this method of gaining faith by relying on other people's reputation.

The goddess of water should be the goddess of water. There is no need to use the name of a god of thunder to win over Axis believers!

Before Aqua finished speaking, Lin Zhi quickly interrupted with a tone full of unwillingness: "Damn it! Even if you gain the power to control water flow and become a legitimate water goddess, you don't need to show off like this, right?!"

Knowing Aqua's temperament well, he had no intention of letting her inherit the title of Thor from the beginning.

Anyway, the residents of Bika Island didn’t know the existence of the Thunder Fruit. A few people from Anilu fell into the oasis ruins again. Whether the power of God is thunder and lightning or floods, doesn’t that mean he has the final say?

"I've already told you that I, the goddess, can change my name or my surname, like this..."

Halfway through, Aqua fully understood Lin Zhi's words and suddenly froze, "Huh?"

The Bika residents who were watching from the opposite side were also surprised and stared at Aqua, who was wearing a blue skirt, with suspicion.

"The power to control water flow? Isn't the legendary power of God not thunder?"

"Speaking of which, there seems to be no description of specific power in the legend..."

"Yesterday at the banquet, Miss Aqua always said that she was the goddess of water. Could it be that the inheritance of God's power is actually given to the chosen person?"

After all, Lin Zhi and Aqua were the only two people who successfully crossed the minefield and returned here. Although there were still some doubts in their hearts, the Bika Islanders themselves would look for suitable possibilities.

What a group of considerate people~

Strike while the iron is hot, Lin Zhi raised his hand and gently pushed Aqua's shoulder, and said with a hint of expectation: "Ms. Water Goddess, let me show you the powerful power you have gained, such as summoning a flood or something!"

The best way to completely convince the residents of Sky Island is to use the power of nature beyond common sense!

"Is it really possible?"

At this moment when she could show off her goddess' abilities to her heart's content, Aqua seemed a little cautious.

The last time she summoned a flood to inundate Orange Town, and the pain of paying millions of Baileys was still vivid in her mind, she was now afraid to let go and make a scene in a crowded town.

Just like when he faced the evil dragon gang in Rogge Town.

This is a small improvement from the idiot goddess.

"No problem, God, of course you have to do whatever you want." Lin Zhi replied with a smile.

"You're welcome from this goddess!"

Aqua instantly beamed after receiving a positive answer, held the goddess staff in her hand out of thin air, and slowly closed her eyes.

"All my relatives in this world, please obey the orders of Aqua, the goddess of water, and fulfill my requests and fulfill my wishes..."

Following the serious and solemn chanting, a slow and weak updraft was generated out of thin air at Aqua's feet, blowing the skirt of her short skirt to sway gently.

A brilliant blue light lit up Aqua's body, and countless water droplets floated around her, converging into several flowing streams of clear water.

Even Lin Zhi had to admit that the aura exuded by Aqua bathed in this background was indeed extremely sacred and solemn, and she really had the illusion that a goddess had descended into the world.

That's right, for him, no matter how sacred the aura is, paired with Aqua's face full of wisdom, it can only be an illusion...

Although there were many emotions in his heart, Lin Zhi did not dare to be careless at all.

Looking at Aqua, who was facing the building complex where the islanders lived, he silently stretched out his hands, holding on to his soft waist, to rotate the stupid goddess 180 degrees, aiming at the island that was burnt black by endless thunder. Cloud land.

Let you show the power of the Water Goddess, let you show our financial resources, you bastard!

If it weren't for the presence of so many eagerly awaited Bika Islanders, Lin Zhi would really want to give the stupid goddess a hell funeral knife!

"Holy water is generated!"

Aqua, who was muttering in her mind and unaware that she had been quietly turned around, opened her eyes and waved the staff in her hand.

Buzz!

In the sky shrouded by dark thunderclouds directly ahead, blue dazzling lights intertwined and formed a giant magic circle with mysterious runes flowing around it.

The sound of the rapids colliding with the water was even more shocking against the background of the thunder. The next second, the dumbfounded Bika Islanders saw the sky-wide flood gushing out from the magic circle like a super waterfall, flowing down!

Lin Zhi moved his fingers slightly, and dense and thick thunder snakes descended from the air and surrounded the flood waterfall, making the momentum even more turbulent, as if it could really bring destruction to the world!

boom!

The monstrous flood instantly filled up the pitted and scorched earth. As the waves surged forward, they directly covered the white island clouds under everyone's feet and flowed along the town streets towards the lower white sea!

Although the "world-destroying flood" in the native world is still far away, Aqua, who has been blessed by several waves of faith, exerted all her divine power to generate holy water...

It already has the power to completely cover small islands!

The raging flood lasted for nearly a minute before slowly weakening, until it turned into a weak channel flowing under the feet. The shock in the eyes of the Bika Islanders remained undiminished.

Living at an altitude of 10,000 meters, they rarely see clear water except during thunder and rain.

Not to mention those with devil fruit abilities!

Therefore, Aqua's ability beyond cognition left them stunned and their heartbeats accelerated for a long time.

"God, this kind of thing is definitely a miracle that only God can do!"

"The distant ancient legend is true. People who pass the test of God can really become gods!"

"Your Excellency, Lady Water Goddess, please forgive us for our previous rudeness."

…

After realizing that the beautiful girl in front of them was indeed a god, the Bika Islanders who reacted fell to the ground one after another, their eyes sincere and awe-inspiring.

Even the guard soldiers who had had brief contact with Aqua knelt on one knee to express their submission.

The legend of Bika, the trial of God, the endless water from the sky...

The various signs they saw with their own eyes made these people no longer have any doubts about the identity of Aqua, the water goddess.

"You don't have to be so polite. Although she is indeed the noble goddess of water, followers of the Axis Cult have no special rules about saluting the goddess!"

Having said that, she could deeply feel the piety shown by this group of people. Aqua was still secretly happy, and the raised corners of her mouth were even harder to suppress than AK.

It had been a long, long time since she had seen such pure eyes without any trace of madness!

It turns out that this guy also knows what kind of lunatics his followers are...

"Aku, Sith?"

Gross, who was standing at the front of the crowd, frowned slightly, his calm expression mixed with doubts.

It wasn't the first time he heard this term, but he thought Aqua was just a blue sea person with a weird head, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

"Yes, this is a sect that believes in the goddess of water, Aqua. If you also want to be protected by this goddess, joining the Axis Cult is the best choice!"

Aqua raised her head and raised her chest, placing her hands on her chest, gazing intensely at the Sky Island residents who stood up slowly.

"Well, if you can build a special church on the island, place the stone statue of this goddess on a water altar surrounded by clear water, and worship from the bottom of your heart every day, the effect will be even better!"

It’s about to begin, this goddess is getting even more ambitious after getting carried away!

Lin Zhi felt speechless. Being around Aqua like this felt a little embarrassing for no reason.

but……

Turning his eyes, he glanced at the holy white light that kept sinking into Aqua's body.

Judging from the results, Aqua is expected to be "sublimated" in this "God's Trial".

So far, both he and Aqua had gained a lot from this inexplicable trip to the empty island.

No, it’s not just the two of them...

After waving goodbye to the enthusiastic and pious residents of Bika, Lin Zhi and Aqua walked along the wet street and returned to the Infinite Dream docked on the shore.

As soon as I walked into the door of the restaurant on the first floor, Miao Miao and King, who had been waiting for a long time, came to greet me.

Although they all showed a lot of trust when they set out to participate in the trial, after all, they had to travel through the sky and land thunder, and as partners they still couldn't help but worry.

Seeing that the two of them had returned safely, they all breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.

"Mr. Lin Zhi, how was the trial? Did you get the legendary power of God?"

King, who was wearing a plaid shirt, was the first to ask.

"Although the process went a little off the plan, I still got the power smoothly."

Lin Zhi had no reservations about these two partners.

I saw him slowly raising his palm, and his fingertips gradually became illusory, replaced by jumping bright arcs of electricity.

"As you can see, I am now a user with the ability of the natural Thunder Fruit."

Meow Meow and King were amazed by the magical elementalization - even though they had already seen Smoker's smoke ability.

While showing off his abilities, Lin Zhi was also thinking about what type of powerful fruit he should find for Miao Miao and King.

If it were before, this method of becoming stronger would bring disadvantages to all members of the team, and he would need to be more serious and cautious.

But after knowing that Aqua can purify the so-called curse of the sea, it is obvious that there is no need to worry too much!

Briefly recounting the experience that took place in the Trial Ground of God, that is, the oasis, Lin Zhi looked at Miaomiao and suggested: "Miaomiao, if you have time, I will take you there. The ancient robot murals recorded there, maybe It can give you some inspiration.”

Ancient robots are something that even the technological genius Vegapunk cannot thoroughly study.

If Miaomiao could master some of the technology from above, it would not be impossible to create human weapons similar to those of the pacifists.

The power of technology is, apart from Devil Fruits, currently the most intuitive and effective way to increase combat power!

"Hmph, if you want to use the robot to make me stronger, then I think this kind of thing should be slowed down a little bit, nya."

What Lin Zhi didn't expect was that Miao Miao held up the cat's face with his paws and showed a very confident smile, "After all, the power I have is also a very powerful Miao Miao!"

Until now, it was thought that Lin Zhi wanted to use the robot to make it more powerful.

He had no idea that the main target of adaptation was actually the king standing next to him with a strong posture...

"Oh?" Lin Zhi asked lightly, having a rough guess in his mind.

If it's not a robot, it should be because Meow Meow has adapted to that thing.

In contrast, there was only strong curiosity and a hint of surprise in Aqua's aqua blue pupils.

In her understanding, Miaomiao has always been a responsible and lovely partner, and she does not associate it with the word powerful at all.

Why don't you just leave the dirty work of fighting to the cunning and cunning Lin Zhi?

As Lin Zhi and Aqua watched, Meow Meow jumped onto the dining table and reached out his cat paw to touch his back.

After groping for some time in some strange place, it found two delicate-looking shells, one on the left and one on the right.

Just as Lin Zhi guessed, it was an aggressive shell with the characteristics of Sky Island - the impact shell!

Although this thing has a certain reaction force, it is not a big deal for meows who have fleshy pads on their paws as cushions.

Although this guy looks cute and cute on the outside, in the final analysis, he is also a villain who has experienced countless electric shocks and is still alive and kicking. His physique is definitely not too weak!

Not to mention that it is difficult for ordinary impact shells to cause substantial damage, even if it is the backlash of a volley shell that is ten times more powerful, Miaomiao can probably resist it with his physical strength!
