Chapter 73 A New Journey
A few days later, on a cliff on Skull Rock Island, an albatross flapped its wings and disappeared into the sky.
"Hey, the price has risen again. A newspaper is so expensive." Fei Te holds a newspaper and is looking for fresh news.
In the eye-catching position of the newspaper, big headlines attracted his attention one by one, and Fei Te recited: "The mobile kingdom is aggravated back to the world..."
"What!" Cardo grabbed the newspaper and checked it. After reading it, Cardo laughed: "The news has been announced. It seems that the navy is not going to send anyone else to Naga, otherwise they will definitely block the news."
"Oh"
The fat man lay opposite Cardo, looked at the back of the newspaper in his hand, and said, "Why does this man look so much like Cardo?"
"There, let me see" Cardo turned the newspaper around and stared at it. This is a message released by the navy: "The Night Owl Pirates raided the Navy GT Fortress, causing heavy casualties. Now after the decision of the Navy Headquarters, Cardo, the captain of the Night Owl Pirates, offers a reward of 400 million!"
"Spitting blood, it seems that the navy doesn't want to play with me. It has risen so much all of a sudden, almost four or five times." Cardo is depressed. After the bounty rises, it not only symbolizes how much the strength has improved, but also symbolizes that you don't want to think about safe days in the future. Those hound-like bounty hunting. People will swarn, find every opportunity to stretch out their sharp teeth and bite you fiercely.
"Haha, my reward has also risen." Sanji, who was sitting next to him with a thick pile of reward orders, was also excited.
"Wow, Sanji, you're so awesome that it's even higher than Cardo's reward!" The fat man squatting next to Sanji also said excitedly.
"No, why is it taller than me?" Cardo, who was a little confused, stretched out his head and looked at the reward order in Sanji's hand, with a big five written on it, followed by six zeros.
"Hey, isn't this not as tall as me?" Cardo sweated coldly, and he understood that this ignorant fat man must have looked at a few zeros less, thinking that it was five to four.
"Congratulations, Sanji, finally broke a million," Cardo laughed.
"Laugh, fart!" Sanji burst into tears in his eyes: "This damn introduction will say that I am the chef of the Night Owl Pirates. This time, the bounty has risen so much, and I even said that it is a chef. I am too under no attention."
After hitting Sanji, Cardo threw the newspaper in his hand to him, grabbed the wanted notice and checked it.
"Hey, Fei Te, your wanted notice, the giant archer Fei Te, the name is much better than mine. The reward is 180 million yuan, and the increase is faster than me. It seems that it was only a few million last time." He threw the Fei Te's reward order to him, and Cardo joked.
Fei Te nodded as a matter of course. His strength was worth so much, but in the past, the navy felt that the Night Owl Pirates had no threat, and there was not much energy to encircle and suppress it, so his reward was set so low.
There are several other important news in the newspaper, such as the original Qiwuhai Shahe's intention to subvert Alabama, the revocation of the title of Qiwuhai, the detention in the big prison, and the description of the straw hat pirate group. The straw hat pirate group in the newspaper are all demonic images, and the navy also calls for some strength. The bounty hunter blocked the Straw Hat Pirates, working for world peace and so on.
These news only surprised Cardo and others. Apart from more funny capital, it doesn't have much impact. However, Cardo has a sense of worry in his heart. Time is getting closer and closer. After the peak battle, the era of White Beard is over, and the whole world is There will be earth-shaking changes. At that time, even the islands guarded by the four emperors will be attacked by pirates. The whole world will be in chaos, and peace will be even more distant.
And there are countless powerful people in this world. Although my strength is enough to protect myself, it is difficult to guarantee that what I care about will not be infringed, such as Cocoa West Village, or Honeymoon Island, etc. These places occupy a lot of weight in Cardo's mind. At that time, the chaos will begin, even if the east The sea is the weakest sea, and there is no guarantee for the complete control of the navy. In case a few Along-like guys appear again and again, will Cardo and others go back from the Great Route to clean up these little bastards?
In fact, it is not a bad thing for the navy to tear up with Cardo now. Cardo originally planned to do a good job and make a great reputation during this period. In this way, it can also give other pirates a kind of deterrent, so that they can also take a good look when facing the flag of the night owl pirates. Fan.
While several people were chatting, Captain Gula's voice sounded from a distance, and he ran over excitedly and shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty, good news!" Captain Gula gasped and said excitedly, "Someone found plants on the island. They are green plants!"
"What!" Hearing Captain Gula's words, the fat man stood up and grabbed Gula's shoulder with an unbelievable face. This news was really shocking. You know, on the skeleton rock island, there are almost no other plants except crystal vines and the plants derived from it. Now there are green plants, which means What does it taste mean that other kinds of plants can also grow on Skull Rock Island, which means that the residents of Naga will often see this kind of green rich in vitality in the future.
"Quick, quickly make it clear, what is it like, what is its function, can it be eaten or not?" Gula was not given a chance to answer at all. The fat man sent out a series of questions, which showed how excited he was.
After a little breath, Captain Gula also scratched his head and replied awkwardly, "I don't know what plant it is, but I'm sure it's a plant that has never grown on Skull Rock Island. It's a new species."
"Ha ha, Captain Gula has also been floating in the windless belt for 20 years. Of course, I don't know about these plants that have never grown on Naga Island. Let's hurry over and have a look. Maybe the three of us know." Cardo pointed to Feite and Sanji. All three of them have seen the world, but compared with Naga. These people who have been locked up for decades need to know a lot.
"Okay, okay, let's go now." After the fat man asked the direction, he didn't wait for Captain Gula to rest. He put him on his shoulder and ran far away with his legs.
After the three Night Cat Pirates showed a look of understanding, they also quickly followed. After staying on this island for more than ten days, they have not seen a trace of green plants. They are also thinking about it now.
Hurry up and whip to a canyon, which is where green plants are found.
"Oh, it's so familiar"
Cardo showed a puzzled expression. He seemed to have been to this place and looked quite familiar.
When he approached, Cardo suddenly realized that this was the place where Cardo and Quiktin fought. At that time, he chopped out the black light of the world. After being dodged by Quiktin, the sharp spirit was just scattered here, splitting a crack in the ground, forming this canyon abyss.
After jumping into the ground of the canyon, Cardo frowned and a strong smell of blood came to his face. The ground of the canyon was also covered with spots of blood, making the canyon look like a dry blood river.
"What's the matter? What a strong smell of blood?" Cardo asked.
Hearing Cardo's question, he also found that the rest of the Night Owl Pirates were slightly puzzled. Captain Gula smiled and replied, "Hundreds of sea kings who invaded the island were hunted and killed. Except for the meat that was preserved and eaten, other internal organs and bones had no place to deal with, and they did not dare to throw them into the big ones at will. Sea, afraid of attracting more Neptunes, so I can only find a place to bury them, or throw them directly into a big pit. In the past, we had a special place to bury Neptune bones, but now that place looks too small, so we can only find another place. The canyon in front of us is one of the bone burial places. Some bloody smells are normal, but these bloody smells only float inside the canyon, or rarely float into the air, and they are not afraid that they will attract other sea kings.
After Captain Gula's explanation, Carduo and others understood that it was the place to dispose of those Neptune corpses. I think so. If these corpses are not disposed of, they can not only attract other Neptunes, but also cause a stinky scene because of decay, or directly cause a plague. .
He followed Captain Gula for a period of time again. Cardo and others lit up in front of his eyes. In a small pit not far away, a touch of green color came into sight.
The little green thing is just a little bigger than a palm, and there are few pitiful branches. It trembles and sticks out a few tender green leaves, and there is a scene of weak wind that may fall down at any time.
"This looks like a shrub, doesn't it?"
Cardo was puzzled. He had never eaten this thing on weekdays. He thought it was not an edible plant. It should be those shrubs and weeds that can be seen everywhere.
"Well," Sanji nodded and said in the tone of a professional chef, "This is a kind of blue and white shrub. When its leaves open, it looks like a green flower, and more than ten years of blue and white shrubs can produce a kind of blue and white fruit, which can be eaten and is generally used as a condiment."Hearing that it was edible, the fat man's eyes lit up, but he thought that it would take more than ten years to bear the result, and the little guy in front of him was still so delicate, and the fat man became defeated.
"Don't be sad. Didn't you never grow other plants in the past? Now this is a good omen. Maybe the skeleton rock island in the future can carry seeds like other islands," Cardo comforted the fat man.
"I think maybe plants can really grow on Naga Island in the future." He thought for a moment, squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil and said, "In the past, the skeleton rock island was full of rocks. There was no soil, even sand was rare, and there was no There is a suitable water source, which is not suitable for the growth of plants. Now, the rocks on Skull Rock Island have been shattered a lot by sound waves, and many cracks have been made by the war. There are cracks in soil and storage rainwater. Plants may really grow on the rock island in the future.
In other words, it wakes up the dreamer. The growth of plants requires three major conditions: sunlight, soil and water source. In the past, the skeleton rock island did not have soil, not even water source. Now with these necessary conditions, if you can't grow plants, it's really strange.
"Boom"
Cardo attacked the ground and tested it. The soil here is about one meter thick enough for some plants to grow, and if he is getting some tenacious trees such as pines and cypresses, maybe these rocks will be eroded into soil with the growth of the trees in the future.
"Haha, Naga can also become the same as other islands." The fat man shouted to the sky. How incredible it was in the past. The residents of Naga had no food, and the food was animals in the sea. There was no seasoning. There was a lot of salt. Now, Naga has hope, although this hope is very small. At the loss.
After accompanying the fat man on the island for a long time, he made a protection for the little young seedling to ensure its healthy growth. After Fei Te took a look at Cardo, looked at the fat man, and asked a question that had been buried in his heart for a long time.
"Fat man, do you want to take a risk with us?" He asked specially.
As soon as Feite's problem was exposed, the atmosphere in the field suddenly became much more embarrassing. This problem is not only Feite's question, but also Sanji and Cardo's question. They all like this naive fat man who can cry and laugh, but from the perspective of the fat man's importance to Naga, it is unlikely that he can go to sea with Cardo and others. Therefore, Cardo and Sanji have not found a suitable opportunity to raise this question. Instead, Fei Te can understand Cardo and Fei Te's ideas very well. It is too difficult to find a good partner. The Night Owl Pirates have been on the sea for more than ten years. When they meet the fat man in front of them, they really don't want to let them go.
The fat man is also lost in meditation. To be honest, he really wants to see it, but he is also the king of Naga and can't but worry about Naga's future.
"Are you worried about Naga?" Feit smiled and said, "Now Naga also has a windless belt, and there are conditions on the island to grow plants." Saying here, Feit paused, showing a strange expression, and said, "And maybe Naga can manipulate the free movement of the island in the future. With these conditions, Naga The future is on the right track. You don't have to worry about anything."
After listening to Fei Te's words, the fat man seemed to have made an important decision. He was about to speak when he was interrupted by a delicate shout.
"No way!"
The queen's voice sounded. She appeared at the top of the canyon at this moment, staring at the three night cat pirates in the canyon under her feet, glaring.
"Ha ha" Captain Gula smiled awkwardly: "After discovering the plant, I sent another member of the guard to inform the consul."
"You actually want to abduct our king!" The queen jumped off the cliff and said coldly, "It's really not a good thing."
"Ha ha" Several people in the Night Owl Pirates knew the queen's temper very well, and they all smiled awkwardly, laughed, and perfunctorily over the matter.
A few days later, many plants were found on Skull Rock Island, and several of these plants were edible.
These days are almost the happiest time in the lives of Naga residents. The queen is also glorious, directing the people of Naga to dig channels, protect plants and so on.
And now, she is looking at a letter with a sad face.
"Dear sister, I'm leaving. I'm not a qualified king. I don't know anything about the management of the country. You have always been managing Naga, and I'm more superfluous. I think that even if I leave, there will be no big change in Naga. Therefore, I decided that it's better to leave. I want to see the outside. The world, want to be baptized by the wind and rain, want to be a real man, don't worry about me, I have a group of partners to rely on..."
The letter is very long, full of the fat man's feelings for Nanaga. He loves Naga and his sister very much. These are the things he wants to protect. In order to be able to protect, he wants to grow up. The crisis some time ago made him deeply realize his weakness. Only a series of bitterness can forge a man. Han.
The queen looked at it and shed tears. These tears were full of relief, pride and worry.
At the same time, a sea far away from Naga.
"Sanji, are you sure this method is really useful?" Cardo was surprised and looked at Sanji sitting in front of him. At this moment, Sanji was holding a fishing rod, one end of the fishing rod stretched out to the distance, and the fishing rope hung high, but the hook was not a bait, but a colorful women's underwear.
"Of course" Sanji patted the tortoise shell under his buttocks and said, "I know this guy's habits very well."
"Really, will it sink? Cardo and I are capable people. If we fall into the sea, it will be finished." The fat man was also worried. He was really speechless about the method Sanji came up with. He hung his underwear in front of the pot and seduced it to keep stretching its head to eat underwear, but he didn't let it eat it, and then Several of them sat on the pot and used their underwear to direct the pot's action to drive on the sea. This method seemed too dangerous.
"Cut, there is no other way without this method. We ran out secretly. Do you still expect your sister to find a boat for us?" Sanji despised it with disdain.
The body of the pot suddenly shook, and Feite was surprised and said, "What is it? Does it want to sink?"
"The crow's mouth, don't talk nonsense." Cardo quickly scolded, and the crow's mouth was very accurate.
"Won"
Sure enough, a burst of water splashed everywhere, and the pot's small body dragged the night owl pirates for so long. It seemed to be a little tired. In addition, no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't eat the underwear in front of it. This lazy guy suddenly didn't want to eat it.
"Wow, my God, don't sink!" The fat man panicked, patted the turtle shell of the pot hard, and howled loudly.
But no matter how smart the pot is, it can't understand human language. It still needs to sink when it sinks.
PS: Five thousand words update, and the plot has also been sorted out in the future. It should be much more wonderful than Skull Rock Island.
