Novel Star Chapter 425 Landing in Elbaf
Chapter 425 Landing in Elbaf
Being chased and intercepted by the navy, the Straw Hats had already deviated from their original anchorage when they arrived at the coast.
Looking at the majestic cliffs and rocks in front of them, the Straw Hats felt helpless.
"Elbaf! I'm coming!!"
Before the boat could stop, Luffy had already stretched out his arms to climb up the smooth rock in front of him.
"Wait! Luffy!"
Nami shouted loudly.
"Everyone! I'm going ashore first!"
"Wait for me, Luffy. I'm going too!"
With quick eyes and quick hands, Usopp grabbed Luffy's leg.
"Luffy, no messing around in the town."
"understood!"
The two of them jumped towards the mountain wall in an instant, climbed to the top of the mountain in a few breaths, and disappeared from everyone's eyes.
Nami reluctantly handed a handful of money to Meili.
"Meili, follow them and don't let them get into trouble."
"Oh!"
Merry happily accelerated and chased after Luffy and Usopp.
"Don't worry, Nami-san, aren't the giants quite friendly?
With Luffy's temperament, he can get along well with anyone, so nothing should happen to him. "
Nami sighed.
"I hope so!"
"Shall we fly up?"
"Or do you want to climb up there with your bare hands?"
Zoro jabbed, and Sanji immediately became furious.
"Natural souvenir, if you can't speak you can donate your mouth!"
"Haha, your brain is probably of no use, just save it for dinner!"
"Huh? Are you comparing your IQ with me?"
The two began to curse each other on a daily basis.
Annie slid the light screen of the communicator and frowned.
"What's wrong?"
Robin moved closer to her.
Annie remotely controlled the drone and had a panoramic view of the situation outside Elbaf.
"The number of warships in the Navy continues to increase."
"It's really endless."
Robin's face became a little solemn when he heard this.
"Are they planning to wipe out all of us in Elbaf?"
Annie turned off the screen, recalled the drone, and pulled up Elbaf's information.
"I guess so, but they don't dare to take action on Elbaf's territory."
"So, we are safe for now."
“But after leaving Elbaf, there’s no telling.”
Elbaf is so powerful that even the World Government has to give in to him.
Even the navy's warships did not dare to set foot in the inner sea of Elbaf.
"What is our goal this time?"
"Ok?"
Annie was stunned for a second, then smiled and shook her head.
"Luffy chose the route, I didn't have a plan. Just let it happen."
By leaving Egghead, Anne loses the golden finger of plot.
She didn't know what would happen next.
Higali's most important task at present is to build Cronus.
All other plans have been completely slowed down.
The fake Vegapunk drew firepower from the Navy and the World Government, buying as much time as possible for the Higali Research Department.
The caravans ceased their activities, and territorial expansion plans and joint revolutionary movements also slowly subsided.
The giant beast is dormant, and heat is continuously accumulating inside the volcano.
She doesn't need to worry about Higali's affairs for the time being, and the main mission of the pirate will naturally be to catch him.
Elbaf and Higali, who are known as the 'world's most powerful country', have certainly had their thoughts on them.
If they can win over this powerful country, their strength will be greatly improved.
Unfortunately, Elbaf's own situation is also very complicated.
Not only has it been divided all year round, there are many parties and each has its own affairs.
The orthodox rulers are governed by Buddhists, and the conservatives are very hostile to outsiders.
All the people sent by Higali encountered a setback and came back defeated.
Anne even considered starting from Charlotte Lola.
Sending her to Loki might open up the situation.
However, that kind of behavior is no different from BIGMOM.
Therefore, they temporarily gave up their plan to win over Albafra.
"Annie?"
Zoro interrupted Annie's contemplation.
"Everything is packed, let's land."
Everyone got on the aircraft, and the Sonny was also taken into the space.
Beyond the smooth and steep mountain walls, a vast plain comes into view.
Perhaps due to the special geology and landforms of Elbaf, the trees here are also exceptionally tall and lush.
Dotted with tall wooden houses dotting the open plains, forming villages.
Each village is separated by lush forests and rivers, and is orderly and well-proportioned.
Several giant trees stand in the four directions of the plain, the southeast and northwest. Their crowns soar into the sky and penetrate straight into the thick clouds.
The giant tree in the southeast is the largest, and the buildings not far from the giant tree are obviously denser.It seems to have reached the size of a town.
In the innermost part of the town, within the city wall surrounded by huge stones, the buildings are much more delicate and beautiful than others.
Anne looked far into the distance, looking at the tall building that looked like a 'castle' inside the city wall and murmured to herself.
"Is that the palace?"
"Annie, what kind of tree is that? It's so tall!"
Chopper lay on Franky's shoulder, his eyes widened, full of curiosity and surprise.
"Treasure Tree Adam."
"Treasure Tree Adam!!!"
The crowd exclaimed in unison.
"That's Adam the Treasure Tree!"
"It is said that there are only a few trees in the world that are the most resilient!"
“There are actually four trees here!!!”
As a shipwright and a world-class shipbuilder, Frankie obviously knows the situation of Adam Baoshu better.
"Legend has it that there is such an island, and wars have been going on on the island. The entire island has been baptized by the war, and the city and people have been basically destroyed.
But there is a huge "tree" still standing, no matter what happens, the tree will stand there.
After the war, people built new cities and countries around this tree.
There are only a few trees of Adam tree in the world, and people call it the strongest tree..."
As he spoke, the light in Franky's eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Could it be that that legendary island...is Elbaf!!!"
Frankie felt that his speculation was close to the truth.
"I don't know if that island is Elbaf."
Anne looked at the giant trees: "However, Elbaf is indeed at war all year round, and is even called the 'Land of War'."
Everyone also agreed with Frankie's statement.
They traveled to countless islands along the way, but never saw the shadow of Adam the Treasure Tree.
This is the treasure tree Adam with a piece of wood as big as a keel and worth [-] million beli!
Elbaf, there are actually four trees!
Annie pointed to the three trees that were obviously smaller in size and said: "These three trees should have been cultivated later. The trees are relatively young."
"That tree might be the legendary tree that still stands despite the baptism of war.
The tall buildings at its feet should be the residence of the royal family among the giants. "
"Is that so!"
"What an amazing tree!"
Annie held her chin and thought silently.
The wood of Baoshu Adam is precious and expensive.
In this great age of pirates, it's all about hard currency.
However, this wood is scarce and difficult to obtain.
Is it possible that Elbaf cultivated three trees to sell wood?
The giants are simple-minded and don't have so many twists and turns.
If you were just selling wood, it would be a good business route.
However, the ownership of the wood is probably in the hands of the royal family.
After all, it would have cost a lot of money to build the obviously more ornate buildings inside the huge stone city wall.
