293. Insidious and cunning
On the Great Line, Upside Down Mountain, and a rising sea current, a huge exclamation suddenly came. Mobile version m..
A not too big pirate ship, with the Straw Hat Skull Pirates flag hanging high, was soaring down into the air and sliding against the current at an extremely fast speed.
"It's about to hit."
A scream pierced the eardrums and resounded through the sky.
I saw a beautiful girl with short orange hair and a short skirt, her slender hands tightly holding the railing of the boat, her delicate pupils full of tears.
"Help...help..."
Not far away, a man with a long nose was also clinging to the railing of the boat, trembling with fear.
"Great route, here we come."
At the bow of the boat, a young man wearing a straw hat looked at the rapidly retreating red soil and laughed innocently.
Next to him, there was a man with green hair, three knives hanging on his waist, and a solemn expression.
The person at the helm of the ship was a man with short blond hair and curly eyebrows, holding a cigarette in his mouth.
"Wait...what is that!"
Exhaling a puff of smoke, Sanji, who was steering the ship, stared wide-eyed at the black shadow connecting heaven and earth directly in front of him.
"The mountain... the mountain... is about to collide, Sanji, change direction quickly."
Trembling, Usopp burst into tears and runny nose, and roared angrily.
"Ow..."
At this moment, a huge roar carried a hurricane, causing several people to cover their ears.
"It's... it's... a whale."
Everyone opened their mouths wide and swallowed as they looked at the huge shadow approaching from far away.
"Damn it, you dare to block the middle of the road."
The leader, the straw hat boy, made a fist with his right hand, about to attack.
"Luffy, you are going to die. With such a big body, if you sneeze casually, we will destroy the ship and kill everyone."
"It's over, it's going to eat us."
Before Nami could finish speaking, suddenly the whale whose head could not be seen suddenly opened its mouth.
The whole sky was dark.
"Sanji, change direction quickly."
"Damn, it's too late."
"Help...the Grand Line is too scary."
A huge wave arose, and the originally noisy pirate group suddenly disappeared.
A few minutes later, just when everyone thought they were about to die, a bright light appeared in front of several people.
"Sky? Ocean? Why does something look wrong?"
In the silent sea, a few people came back to their senses and looked at everything in front of them.
"There's an island there, and there's a man there."
Suddenly, Usopp pointed to a small island in the distance, with several coconut trees on it, and under the tree there was an old man lying on a deck chair, reading a newspaper.
The pirate ship docked, and I don't know whether it was not noticed or deliberately ignored. The old man who was wearing casual shorts and reading the newspaper ignored Nami and the others.
"Uncle, may I ask where this place is!"
Not afraid of strangers, Nami asked, but the old man didn't even raise his head, he just frowned and read the newspaper.
"Nami, if people ignore you, it's up to me!"
Taking the lead, Usopp pushed Nami away, walked up to the old man, and shouted "Hey! Can't you hear me?"
This sound made the old man react.
He slowly raised his head. Under the ordinary glasses, there were a pair of sharp eyes. It was unnatural and the hair on everyone's hair stood on end. Zoro even pulled out his two swords. If you look closely, you will find that his legs were shaking.
Usopp sat on the ground, his face dripping with sweat and turned pale.
"You are?"
The ominous premonition disappeared, and the old man's eyes began to become cloudy. He looked at Nami and others like an ordinary old man.
"Was it just an illusion?"
Nami patted her plump breasts, a little confused.
"call..."
Taking out a puff of cigarette, Sanji suppressed the throbbing in his heart and looked at Zoro. They could see the solemnity in the other's eyes. It was not an illusion.
The old man in front of me is anything but simple.
"Uncle, we are pirates."
The single-celled Luffy scratched the back of his head and grinned.
"Oh."
It was very calm. Seeing that Luffy and others were pirates, the old man showed no expression. He continued to look down at the newspaper, his brows tightening again.
"Uncle, where is this place? I remember we were eaten by a huge whale." Seeing that the uncle ignored him, Luffy leaned his head and looked at the newspaper.
"This is the whale's belly..."
However, before the old man could finish speaking, Luffy grabbed the newspaper and read it carefully with wide eyes.
"Ace?"
Looking at the figure bathing in flames in the newspaper, Luffy's eyes flashed.
"You know him?"
On the recliner, Kurokas looked at Luffy in slight surprise.
"Well, I'm his younger brother."
Very proud, Luffy patted his chest. He only saw the pictures in the newspaper, but not the words.
"You are his brother?"
At this time, Kurokas stood up and looked at Luffy with some suspicion.
"Well, I was beaten up by him since I was a child, I really miss it!"
They laughed heartlessly, and before they knew it, they hadn't seen each other for a long time.
"What news, let me see it?"
Seeing Luffy and Kurokas talking, Nami cautiously stepped forward, grabbed the newspaper, and started reading.
"Fire Fist Ace, the captain of Whitebeard's second division, powerfully killed the Germa Pirates, Smoke Iji, Smoke Niji, and Smoke Yuji under the command of the Holy Pirates. ....”
Nami read it aloud as she read it, but Nami had no idea that when she said the surname Smoke, Sanji, who was puffing out smoke, tensed up all over.
"Whitebeard, is he the strongest man in the world, Edward Newgate?"
After reading the newspaper, Nami's eyes bulged and almost flew out of her sockets.
"Fire Fist Ace is said to be a supernova with a bounty of hundreds of millions, and the same is true for the Germa Pirates."
"I didn't expect a little girl like you to know this."
Lying on the lounge chair again, Kurokas sighed, "It's a pity. The Whitebeard Pirates may be defeated this time, and the sea will not be calm again."
At this time, Sanji grabbed the news paper, looked at the information inside, gritted his teeth, and began to breathe quickly.
It was really them, but now they had turned into corpses.
"Uncle, why do you say that? Whitebeard is the strongest Yonko, why do I not like your tone so much?"
Seeing that Kurokas was so amiable, Nami slowly let go.
Although they had been in the East China Sea before, they still knew Whitebeard's reputation.
"Today is different from the past. Whitebeard is getting old after all. Fire Fist Ace and other crew members simply cannot resist this opponent."
Kurokas sighed, as if regretful and helpless.
"This time's opponent, are you talking about the Germa Pirates? Wasn't it destroyed by this Fire Fist Ace?"
"Here is the bad guy. Do you know who killed Phoenix Marco, the captain of the first division of the Whitebeard Pirates? You must know that Phoenix Marco can unilaterally defeat the admiral, but he was ignored by others. Killed without any backhand."
"What? To rival an admiral?"
At this time, several people were stunned.
"The Germa Pirates are directly affiliated with the Holy Pirates. Have you heard of Thor Enel?" Looking at the newbies, Kurokas rarely said a few more words.
