Chereads / In One Piece With The Barrier Fruit / Chapter 53 - Pointer And Route

Chapter 53 - Pointer And Route

Some people may think this is arrogant, but those who are not arrogant are not worthy of awakening Conqueror's Haki!

Basire's crazy laughter, coupled with the vague momentum and pressure in the air, made his crew feel a bit oppressive.

"Still not enough."

Basire said with cold eyes, thinking that it might take a desperate battle close to death to detonate his momentum.

"Ready to go!!"

Basire gave the order, and all the crew immediately packed up their things, boarded the ship and set sail.

Seeing the island whale Laboon leave and realizing he was not getting replaced, Momoo immediately excitedly installed the traction rope by himself. He is also a useful boy!

"Captain, I found some charts and strange pointers in the old man's collection. How should we go now?"

Kuro has now surrendered a bit more to Basire, respecting the captain more and more in his heart, and his tone has also changed a lot.

"Captain, my compass is malfunctioning!!"

Nami said anxiously. When she took out the compass she brought from East Blue, she found that the needle kept spinning around.

"You don't need the normal compass anymore, throw it away."

"In the Grand Line only the Log Pose and Eternal Pose work, they are unique compasses especially created to navigate here."

"The Log Pose can record the magnetism between the islands of the Grand Line and accurately guide you to the next island."

"However, the magnetic force of each island is different, and the Log Pose needs to record locally for a period of time. It will point to the next island only after the magnetic force is fully charged."

"While the Eternal Pose will always point to a certain island and will never change."

Basire picked up a transparent spherical Log Pose and explained to his crew its use.

Now it was also acting erratic, as if swinging back and forth in seven fixed directions, which represent the seven initial routes of the Grand Line.

Once you choose one of these directions, you can usually follow this route all the way to the Sabaody Archipelago.

Basire also saw a Log Pose with three small balls. This was an upgraded version of the Log Pose that was needed to enter the New World, to deal with the New World where the magnetic field was even more disordered.

Unexpectedly, this old guy has a lot of treasures. He is worthy of being the ship doctor of the Pirate King who has reached the final island.

"Is this an Eternal Pose?"

Basire picked up an hourglass-shaped pointer again. A glass ball was sandwiched between a wooden round plate and supported by three small pillars. There was only one permanent pointer inside that would not change direction.

There is also a place name engraved on the side of the wooden board above the permanent pointer.

"ALABASTA? Alabasta?"

Basire looked at the letters on the permanent pointer, and then read out a familiar name. He suddenly showed a surprised expression.

Immediately he picked up several other Eternal Poses, Drum Island, Jaya Island/Sky Island, Water 7, Tequila Wolf, Sabaody Archipelago, Fish-man island...

'Damn it, isn't this the route Crocus took after joining the Roger Pirates? This is also the route Crocus chose for the Straw Hat Pirates!'

'Well Tequila Wolf is not part of that route but it's where Robin was sent by the Shichibukai Bartholomew Kuma.'

And Crocus actually has Eternal Poses to some other islands!

"Haha!! Nice!! Sure enough, robbing Crocus was the right choice!!"

Basire burst out laughing, but none of the bumpkins from the Big Daddy Pirates knew much about the Eternal Poses, so they could only watch Basire laughing wildly with bewildered faces.

Basire is very excited now. He feels like he just came out of the novice village and defeated a big boss, which directly revealed so much good equipment and made his life so much easier.

After laughing wildly, Basire also calmed down. Looking at these Eternal Poses and a constantly shaking Log Pose, which one should he choose?

When he saw the last Eternal Pose, he showed a firm and meaningful smile.

While he could go and fight Crocodile and Enel, those strong Logia users, while he's sure he wouldn't lose, he might not be able to defeat them yet, after all he doesn't think he has Luffy's luck and plot armor and his crew might even be killed.

So he chose to wander for a while to let himself and his crew grow up and continue to hone his Haki.

With these Eternal Poses, he no longer has to take only one route, and the Marine can't even try to block him on one route!

"Nami! Set the course to the far left direction of the Log Pose!"

Basire did not take the middle of the seven routes, even though the fourth route was the route taken by Roger the Pirate King and the Straw Hat Pirates.

But with these Eternal Poses, he chose to take the fourth route after he had enough strength. By then, he could defeat these two Logia Devil fruit users.

"Yes! Captain!"

Under the tug of Momoo, the Dreadnaught Saber rushed directly to the upper left and chose the first route on the left.

Don't ask why it's the first one on the left and not the first one on the right, it's just a feeling.

Basire feels that there are people he needs on this route.

This may be the guidance of fate!

The Eternal Pose held in Basire's hand allows him to keep trying and making mistakes and keep returning to the Novice Village.

This is the Eternal Pose engraved with 'Twin Capes'.

Both Roger and Crocus have this Eternal Pose, allowing them to travel back and forth to the starting point of the Grand Line multiple times.

Roger can visit all the islands on the seven routes of Paradise. This Eternal Pose of the Twin Capes also plays such a role.

Basire looked at the endless sea, with a firm smile on his face at this unknown route.

The familiar plot gave him too many confident ideas, and he felt that it was difficult for him to grow his courage if he took that route.

What he needs is unknown exploration and fearless adventure!

When he jumped out of the fourth route of the original plot, Basire felt that his spirit had been set free and his haki became smoother.

That's what it feels like!

Basire was in a surging mood and raised his forty-meter barrier sword towards the sea, slashing continuously.

On this day, the overly excited Basire stood on the bow of the ship and swung the barrier sword tens of thousands of times. Finally, he collapsed on the deck exhausted, but his face showed endless satisfaction.

The poor Momoo had already been scared to death. A big sword was swung up and down on its head, causing him to explode at a speed of 120%. After Basire fell, he finally relaxed and continued to advance slowly.

Seeing Basire getting stronger and stronger, this also stimulated the crew members Zoro, Kuro, and Gin to constantly increase their training intensity, just to catch up with the captain.

In the captain's dormitory, Desire and Honey Queen were in a silent battle to take care of the sleeping Basire. This was the first time that Basire fell into a deep sleep due to excessive training.

In the past, he was always wary of the world and could not trust anyone.

Now, it may be because of the growth in strength and courage that he has let down his guard against his crew. This may also be the absolute confidence in his Observation Haki and barrier fruit.

On the first island of the first route, it is also an island full of pirate hunters, hunting the new pirates who enter the Grand Line.

"A pirate group from my hometown of East Blue? This is fate!"

On the island, a man wearing a black cloak suddenly saw the pirate ship and the pirate flag that had just appeared on the sea.
