The ghost sword hero of the pirate

At this time, the floating island has stopped rising.

The chosen full moon in the sky is even bigger, there is not a cloud around the island, and the water-like moonlight is spreading wantonly.

At an altitude of 10,000 meters, not only is the air thin, the temperature here is even below zero.

The mist created by John's ability has all turned into ice crystals and dissipated.

All of Ferro's soul returned to his body, and the air shield completely disappeared.

"rise!"

The golden lion exhaled white air, grabbed the ground with his right hand, and a square piece of soil was peeled off from the island.

Then, he placed Fierro on the clod of soil, and the clod carrying Fierro immediately floated toward Dressrosa below.

"...."

John saw everything the Golden Lion did, but he didn't act rashly.

Of course he knew that having the unconscious Ferro here could distract the Golden Lion, but at this moment he was also in an awkward situation.

Without the large fog, he could no longer hide himself.

What made him even more uncomfortable was that in this low-temperature environment, he could not elementalize.

Low temperature is the nemesis of the Misty Fruit.

Unable to elementalize, John would have to face the Golden Lion's sword energy directly, and the consequences of being struck by it can be imagined.

After everything was done, the golden lion looked at John, "Now, we can have a good fight."

After saying that, his aura continued to rise, and a terrifying murderous intent filled the entire island.

Feeling this aura, John's heart sank, knowing that the golden lion had murderous intentions towards him.

"Wait, Shiki!"

Seeing the golden lion about to swing his sword, John quickly shouted.

He is not ready to fight the Golden Lion. In this environment, he is no match for the Golden Lion. Defeat is only a matter of time.

The Golden Lion was a little impatient when he heard this, "What, do you have any last words to say?"

In this war, various accidents always occurred, which made him feel very frustrated and filled with anger. Now he could finally have a happy fight, and he didn't want to waste time.

"Let's cooperate, Shiji!" Seeing that the golden lion was impatient, John said bluntly.

"cooperate!?"

The golden lion was surprised. He didn't expect John to say such words.

He was a little disdainful, "You, a general, still want to cooperate with me?"

As he spoke, the famous sword in his hand was about to slash at John.

Just kidding, he is a golden lion, not everyone is qualified to cooperate with him.

John's face changed drastically, and he said in a very fast tone, "Do you have the right to put it aside for now, but without me, none of you can find Rocks' treasure!"

Speaking of Rocks' treasure, the golden lion became interested, and the sword that was about to slash stopped.

He stared at John and said, "Except for the final island, there is no place I can go. Moreover, as long as I catch you, I will naturally be able to find the place where the treasure is buried."

If it were anyone else, it would be a bit arrogant to say this, but Golden Lion has the capital to say this.

With the Piaopiao Fruit, not to mention himself, even a fleet can sail around the world. The nickname of the Flying Pirate is not just talk.

But he didn't take action immediately. He wanted to hear where John's confidence came from.

Seeing that the golden lion was finally able to communicate, John felt relieved and said, "Rocks' treasure is in the foggy sea."

"Misty Sea!"

Upon hearing this place name, Golden Lion's expression changed.

The name "Misty Sea" is rarely mentioned, and even fewer people know it.

Even in the new world, only some old pirates who have been around for many years know the rumors about the foggy sea.

That's right, it's just a rumor.

Because, the foggy sea area is not within the route.

As we all know, after entering the Grand Line, the nautical chart loses its usefulness. If you want to reach the next island, you need a special tool - a recording pointer.

However, the recording pointer is not omnipotent and has many limitations. Following the recording pointer, you can only reach the magnetic island.

These magnetic islands are connected in series to form routes.

Outside the route, few people explore it, and it has become what people call unknown places. These unknown places are the majority of the Great Route.

If only this was the case, the Golden Lion wouldn't care. Again, the flying pirate is so willful.

But if the treasure is in the foggy sea, the golden lion really can't be willful.

Under the surface of that sea area, there are a large number of submarine volcanoes, and they are active volcanoes.

Years of eruptions have caused the seawater temperature in the entire sea area to rise and evaporate very quickly, leaving it always shrouded in mist.

Moreover, after the volcanic magma solidified, countless reefs were formed, like a large maze. Without a map there, it would be impossible to get out.

The most terrible thing is that the eruption of the volcano crystallizes the sea water, and the lighter part is the keratin factor, which merges with the water vapor and finally forms sea clouds, the kind of sky islands.

The heavier part is the sea tower stone, which is scattered in the mist.

"Mist, Hailou Stone! No wonder."

Thinking of this, the golden lion's expression changed, and he somewhat believed John's words.

"That's right, my moves are based on the mist of the sea tower stone in the foggy sea area."

John admitted generously and continued, "That's why I said that no one can find Rocks' treasure except me.

As far as I know, the only people who are not afraid of the fog there, except me, are the frozen man named Kuzan from the Navy, Garp's son with the wind fruit ability, and, yes, now there's that kid from Ferron.

But you can't cooperate with the navy, you can only choose the guy from Fierona.

But don’t forget, without a chart, the maze-like huge reef group cannot be explored in a few years.”

After hearing John's words, Golden Lion's face became even more ugly.

In a few years, whether he can afford to wait or not, even if he can afford to wait, it will consume a lot of manpower and material resources.

Even he can accept this, but such a large-scale operation cannot be concealed at all. Over time, the navy, the world government, and other pirates in the new world will discover the abnormality.

By then, once the secret of the treasure is revealed, all parties will surely come to take a share of the pie.

John became even more proud, and the smile returned to his face, as if he had won the golden lion.

He continued to confuse, "How about it, Shi Ji, the silver ax is in danger, and I can't guard this treasure alone now.

As long as you agree, it's not impossible to join your Flying Pirates.

With me joining you and Locks' treasure, your flying fleet will soon be able to conquer the new world again!

Cooperate, Shiji!!"

John's voice seemed to be full of magic at this time, making the golden lion's face change several times in an instant. To be honest, he was really moved.

Seeing his appearance, John felt completely relieved. No one would refuse such a temptation.

However, just when John thought the golden lion was about to say yes, the golden lion suddenly calmed down.

Zheng——!

The famous swordsman Ying Ju made a sword cry and pointed directly at John.

"Ski, you!?" John couldn't believe it.

"Have you said enough, John?"

The golden lion chuckled, "Who do you think I am? I am a golden lion!!"

Clang——!!

The golden sword energy was shining brightly, and it instantly slashed at the already stunned John.
