Chapter 78 Crow's Mouth
After he finished speaking, Bill ignored Ian and conveyed the order to the sailors to stay where they were, so the twelve ships dropped their anchors and stayed where they were, waiting for Rab's voice to disappear.
Ian was also listening carefully, and at the same time lamented the wisdom of Captain Bill and the others that belonged to the people.
He still remembered that when Luffy and the others were ignorant, they recklessly embarked on the great route. As a result, when they went down the waterway, they happened to encounter Rabu blocking the road, and they were about to hit the road. Well, it was Luffy who fired the cannon on the bow to stop the ship.
Ian didn't know whether the reaction force of the cannon was that great. At that time, he was thinking, does everyone who enters the great route need such a shot?
However, after coming to this real pirate world, he realized that he was thinking wrong. Not everyone is as reckless as Luffy and the others. Rabu's whale has been watching the Twin Points for decades. If If every ship collided with it, Gemini Cape would have been blocked by shipwrecks long ago. Those who want to enter the great route will always have their own way.
Rabu's cry was faint in the wind, and I don't know how long it took, Ian suddenly heard a bang, and the Upside Down Mountain in the distance also trembled, so Ian knew , Rab it has started to bump.
The fleet waited quietly. Fortunately, it didn't take long for Rab to hit the mountain. When the tremor of the upside-down mountain stopped, Bill listened again and found that Rab's cry had indeed disappeared. So he immediately issued an order: "Everyone has it! Anchor! Sail!"
Bill, on the other hand, stood on the bow again and started to observe the sea with his telescope.
"What's this doing again?" Ian asked behind him.
Bill didn't look back and explained, "Oh, I'm observing the ocean current. If you want to enter the Upside Down Mountain, you must follow the ocean current."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bill had already found the location of the ocean current, so he turned his head and shouted: "Turn the rudder! Go to two o'clock."
With Ian and the others at the head, the rest of the ships in the back began to adjust their course, and the entire fleet began to slowly cut into the ocean current.
Staying on the boat, Ian felt the most obvious. When the boat entered the ocean current, Ian only felt that the speed of the boat suddenly accelerated, just like the sudden acceleration of the car and the feeling of pushing back, Ian also felt the acceleration of the boat. However, at this time, all the ships did not open their sails, and were completely advancing along the ocean currents.
"The speed of the water is so fast!?" Ian had a bad premonition.
Hearing his words, Bill didn't turn his head. He continued to hold the binoculars to look ahead, and said, "Of course, in such a current speed, it is difficult for the ship to adjust the direction. The time to test us has come!"
Ian couldn't help licking his dry mouth. He had thought at the beginning that if he couldn't find a fleet, he would just follow Ace's fellow and drive a small boat to the great route by himself. However, looking at it now, he seemed to think so. Somewhat naive.
"Right rudder! 13 degrees!"
"More! Left rudder! 3 degrees!"
"Very good, keep it up!"
Bill's orders are communicated from time to time, and the sailor in charge of the helm is nervously and strictly implementing Bill's orders. Ian knows that Bill is adjusting the course of the ship. It is so big, so it must be aligned with the location of the entrance.
As it gets closer and closer to the entrance, the speed of the ocean current becomes more and more turbulent, and the speed of the ship is obviously accelerating. In this case, turning the rudder in any general direction is looking for death, and it is very likely that the steering wheel will be broken. Yes, so Bill's orders were to fine-tune the heading little by little.
The figure of the Chitu Continent also appeared in the eyes of everyone at this time. It was a majestic mountain range.
I can't see how long it is, just like a horizon, just in front of the ship.
Some sailors on the ship may be going to the great route for the first time. Seeing such a behemoth lying in front of them, when they think that if the ship is operated incorrectly, they will be destroyed and buried at the bottom of the sea. These sailors suddenly collapsed, and they screamed in panic. "Go back! Go back! We'll hit it!"
"Ian, let them shut up!" Bill said without looking back.
Ian was also decisive, rushed over immediately, and slammed on everyone's head, knocking these panicked people to the ground.
Anyone with a little sailing experience knows that panic at this time will not do any good, they are all people on the same boat, and they can only trust the captain's decision.
It was at this moment that Ian understood why the captain had such authority on a ship.
It can be seen that Bill is also very nervous. Sweat is dripping from his forehead. Although he has traveled to and from the great route more than ten times, he cannot guarantee that he will be so lucky every time.
Outside the side of the ship, there were surging waves. The speed of the ship reached its peak at this moment with the ocean current. Ian looked towards the sea in the south. He knew that in fact all the way to the south, he could reach the windless area of the great route. As long as you cross the windless belt again, it will be a great route. It seems to be very simple, but no one chooses to take such a route. Instead, they choose to take the entrance of Upside Down Mountain. It can be seen that the windless belt is even more dangerous.
In the hazy water mist, the entrance can already be seen. In Ian's opinion, the course of their ship is just right to enter the entrance smoothly, but Bill still did not relax. Before entering the entrance, any sloppyness is possible. There will be irreversible consequences, so his orders are still being issued, constantly fine-tuning the course of the ship.
Boom! With the sound of the current hitting the coast, the bow of the boat Ian and the others were on suddenly tilted up, the whole boat became tilted, everyone was unstable, and fell like a rolling gourd. on the deck.
However, even if it fell like this, it still couldn't stop the sailors on board from bursting into cheers!
"Long live Captain Bill!"
"Come in, we came in smoothly!"
The reason why the boat was raised was because they had entered the waterway and were climbing the mountain along the waterway. Bill was indeed an experienced old captain. His adjustment of the course allowed the boat to enter the waterway accurately. At this moment, He is the hero of the whole ship.
Bill also breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to look at Ian and said, "Haha, sure enough, God also plans to let me retire smoothly!"
Ian smiled at him, and finally put his heart down.
"What about the ships behind!?" Bill asked loudly.
A sailor at the stern, who was holding a telescope to observe the back, also replied loudly: "Ship No. 2 entered... Vessel No. 3 also entered... No. 4... Not good! Vessel No. 4 is heading off course! "
After observing the shouts of the sailors, many people ran to the stern with concern, and Ian also ran over. He saw two ships behind him, both separated by a certain distance from each other, that was the second and third ships. Ship, they all entered the channel smoothly, but at the entrance position, ship No. 4 can see a clear course deviation!
He grabbed the telescope from a sailor's hand and looked over, and saw that the people on the fourth ship were already in a mess. There were several people at the rudder who were working hard together, trying to turn the steering wheel over, but the ocean current The speed was too fast, and the huge force they brought, no matter how hard they tried, the ship was still deviating a little bit.
Then, the group of sailors who turned the wheel suddenly fell to the ground.
"No! Their steering wheel is broken!" A sailor who was also observing exclaimed.
"They are dead!" Bill said with regret after hearing this.
In the sight of Ian, the No. 4 ship was carried by the current, and at a very fast speed, it slammed into the mountain wall next to the entrance channel. The whole ship disintegrated into countless fragments under the huge impact force. .
The sailors on the ship were thrown into the air, then fell into the sea, and when they sank, they never came out again, not only people, but also the wreckage of the ship.
"They were swept away by the ocean currents!" Bill took off his captain's hat, put it on his chest in a state of silence, and said, "May they rest in peace at the bottom of the sea."
No one in the boat said a word, even Ian took off his hats in greeting.
He heard that the Great Sea Route was dangerous before, but he didn't really feel that much. After all, he just heard what others were saying. He had never experienced it himself. Now he has witnessed the wreck of the No. 4 ship with his own eyes. Well, a ship, one or two hundred people, all died on the bottom of the sea because of a maritime accident! ?
After the ocean current hits the mountain wall, it will form an ocean current that rolls down. In such a situation, even people with good water will not be able to float up, and can only turn into a corpse and sink under the dark and cold seabed forever. The shipwreck can be said to be shocking, but Bill and the other people on the ship have a common expression, it seems that such a thing has been seen more than once or twice for them?
"The fleet has suffered losses, what should I do?" Ian asked Bill.
"What else can I do?" Bill shrugged and said, "Everyone who got on the boat was actually prepared to die. We lost one boat, and we still have eleven, and we still have to move on. ."
Now even Ian doesn't know what to say. Sure enough, I still have less knowledge...
Perhaps because of the tragedy of Ship No. 4, the ships behind seemed to be more and more careful. With 120,000 points of spirit, they adjusted their course and entered the channel one after another, and there was no loss again.
The only one that was killed was the fourth ship. Ian shivered and thought: "The fourth ship, it's so miserable to die! In the future, I won't be able to ride on a ship with such a label!"
Watching the boats climb up the mountain, Ian asked Bill, "How high is this mountain? How long are we going to climb?"
"It's usually about three minutes!" Bill said with his pipe in his mouth: "Come on, when you get to the top of the mountain, you will be able to see the other three ocean waterways, Eastern Blue, Western Blue, Northern Blue and Southern Blue. , the currents of these four oceans will converge on the top of the Upside-Down Mountain."
Can you see the waterways of other oceans? Ian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Uncle Bill, in that case, if other oceans happen to have ships upside down the mountain along the waterway, wouldn't they collide on the top of the mountain?"
"It did happen!" Bill said with a smile: "But that kind of chance is very small, and it may not happen once in a few years."
"What if it really happens?" Ian asked.
"Then we can only see who survives!" Bill shrugged and smiled: "Don't worry, we're not necessarily so unlucky."
However, before the words fell, the lookout on the mast suddenly shouted in panic: "Discover other ships! It's from the South China Sea Passage! We... we will collide with them!"
Beard was dumbfounded and looked at Ian blankly.
Ian can't wait to give himself a slap: "Nima, call you Crow Mouth!"
