Not long
The screen with the red border slowly brightened again...
Under the night, the Merry is sailing on the sea
In Nami and Robin's room, Luffy is studying the ancient text with Robin very seriously
"This character should be translated as 'big', right?" Luffy pointed to a character composed of two small rings and a long cylinder, and asked.
"yes."
Robin nodded, She touch her mouth, yawned and said: "Study during the day and study at night, are you going to finish studying and let me leave early?"
"Ahaha!! Then you misunderstood" Not waiting for Luffy to answer, Nami on the side laughed, "Luffy...he just wants to learn the knowledge early, as for other things, he won't do until he finish this when I first got on the ship, he came to me every night to study, and he learned all my sailing knowledge in just three months " Nami added.
Hearing this, Robin felt a little more relaxed
"Hey Robin, can you tell us about what happened in Ohara back then?" Seeing Luffy burying his head in his studies Nami started questioning Robin
Although this is a sad story for Robin, but after so many years, Robin's heart has long been less sensitive...
She smiled softly: "No one will believe me if I say tell the story"
"Is it about Buster Call?" At this time, Luffy raised his head, "If it's not a secret, then tell us about it!!! No one stipulates that what is said must be believed by others"
After thinking for a while, Robin began to talk about what happened in Ohara...
The moon crows, the sound of the waves remains...
On the deck of the Merry, the partners of the Straw Hat Pirates started their morning exercises
"What about Robin chan and Luffy???"
Sanji looked around and asked with some doubts
Nami reply hands: "The two of them got it very late last night, so I let's them sleep a little longer "
"hateful!!" Hearing this, Sanji's neck became thick with jealousy...
In the afternoon
Nami suddenly exclaimed: "The log pose is broken!!"
Everyone looked over immediately, and saw that Nami flicked her wrist vigorously, but the direction of the log pose is still pointing at the sky!!!
Luffy narrowed his eyes slightly: "Don't worry!! It doesn't matter if it's broken, I'll get a new one!"
When he left Alabasta before, Luffy considered that the log poses might be damaged due to accidents, so he bought 10 log poses at Alabasta...
Although the price of the log pose is not low, but for today's Straw Hat Pirates, this little money is really not even a sprinkle of water
After a while, Luffy came out of the cabin with a livid face: "Something is wrong!!! All the log poses are pointing to the sky..."
"What!! That unscrupulous boss sold us all fake products!!!" Usopp clenched his fists angrily
However, Luffy shook his head: "Impossible!! I bought these log poses in two stores, so they can't all be fakes. And the log pose in Nami's hand was given by Uncle Crocus. If there is a problem, it can only be there!!!"
Luffy points to the sky!!
Nami: "Red-border Luffy is amazing, he found the problem right away!!"
Vinsmoke Sanji: "Hey hey hey!! He has 10 log poses! Can't this find the problem???"
Monkey D. Luffy: "Huh? This is a good idea...!!! We will also carry 10 log poses when we go to sea in the future!!! if one is broken, there are still many spares!! And we can also compare each other to check whether the log pose is broken"
Seeing that the red-border Luffy held out 10 log poses at once, the white border Luffy here shouted that this method is good!!!
Trafalgar Law: "Interesting!! I also need to prepare a few more log poses..."
Capone Bege: "It makes sense"
At this time, Robin said seriously: "it must be pointed to the Sky Island!!"
Sky Island???
Everyone is full of question marks
Luffy asked suspiciously: "Are there islands in the sky? What do they rely on to float in the air?"
"No! To be precise, what floats in the air should be the sea!"Robin made a slight speculation, but then she shook her head again: "But I have only heard about Sky Island, but frankly speaking... I haven't read any literature about Sky Island"
"Sea..."
Hearing this, Luffy became even more puzzled, "Sea water should not be able to float in the air? If there is too much water, it should rain...???"
Nami then echoed: "That's right!! This is impossible!! How can the island and the sea float in the air? Maybe there is a problem with the magnetic field here!!!"
Robin shook his head: "Nami, you and Luffy are both very good navigators. You should know that, as long as the log pose is not broken...!! Since the magnetic field points upward, there must be an island above!!"
"Salvage....Salvage"
"Keng Keng Keng Keng Keng!!!"
"Salvage....Salvage"
"Keng Keng Keng Keng Keng!!!"
Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs, drums and slogans on the sea
They saw a boat with a bow in the shape of a monkey playing a drum approaching
"Boys, have you reached the shipwreck yet???"
A burly figure leaned against the railing and asked.
"No!! Captain!!"
The crew members answer together.
The burly figure asked again: "Then why did you stop???"
The crew members continued to answer: "Meet a ship! Captain!!"
"Um?"
Hearing this, the burly figure turned around, and it turned out to be an ape-man wearing earphones listening to music...
He looked at Luffy and the others: "What are you doing here? This sea area is my territory!! Only I can salvage the sunken ships here!!"
Luffy said: "We just passed by here, and didn't plan to fish here. But our log poses are all pointing to the sky, do you know what's going on???"
Hearing that Luffy and the others were just passing by, the ape-man's face suddenly softened
He explained: "There is indeed a problem with this sea area! Only the permanent log pose can be used here, just like the permanent log pose in my hand is a special guide to Jaya Island."
Luffy nodded: "I see! Could you please take us to the island you mentioned? We will also go there to buy a permanent log pose."
The ape-man said generously: "No problem!! Just as we are about to return, you just follow us!"
But suddenly several huge figures suddenly appeared in the sky!!!
Those people seem to be giants standing behind the clouds, overlooking the earth!!
"ah!!"
"Run!!"
…
The crew of the salvage ship suddenly shouted in horror, and hurriedly set sail
The Straw Hat Pirates were also stunned by the huge figure in the sky!!!
Is there really such a big person in the world??
A question popped up in Luffy's mind
However, seeing the ship of the Masira Pirate sailing away, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates did not dare to stay
Following Masira the Straw Hat Pirates arrived at the northeast corner of Jaya Island
The salvage ship docked, and all the crew members on the ship went ashore in a panic, lying on the ground and breathing heavily, obviously frightened by the scene in the sky just now
The Straw Hat Pirates also went ashore
Afterwards, they learned from masira that it is said that monsters sometimes appear in the sky in this sea area!! They did not expect to meet them today
At this time, Montblanc Cricket came out from the next room, and he was a little surprised to see the Straw Hat Pirates!!
But after Masira explained, so he had no worries.
Afterwards, the Straw Hat Pirates learned about the Cumulus cloud from Cricket, and the so-called Knock Up Stream, etc.!!!
As for the matter of Sky Island, Cricket said that it's just people's speculation!!
"Huh? Isn't this the story of North Blue's household name?"
Suddenly, Sanji saw the storybook on the small table and exclaimed.
"So, I hope this matter can be found out before I die of exhaustion!!!" Cricket said.
"Uncle! Since there is a legend about Sky Island here, is it possible...Actually, the half of the island that Noland mentioned didn't fall into the sea, but flew into the sky???"
After listening to what Cricket said, Luffy asked suspiciously.
As soon as this remark came out, Cricket laughed out loud: "Don't be kidding!! Sky Island is just people's speculation after all, and the sky current brought up many ships, but none of them brought back the information of Sky Island. Those ships were finally proved to have fallen from another place and crashed!"
At this time..., the setting sun began to set, and the sunlight slanted from Luffy's back, stretching his figure very long on the ground!!!
Luffy looks at his own shadow, frowning
Sudden wrinkle!!!
He turned his head to look in the direction of the setting sun, and immediately slapped his thigh: "I know, those black shadows in the sky are actually people living on Sky Island!! Sky Island really exists!
!!")
"Hey, hey!! Luffy, do you have a fever...?" Usopp hurried over and patted Luffy's forehead
Cricket also said firmly: "Impossible!! If Sky Island is full of those people, how big is the island enough for those people to live"
Luffy shakes her head: "No!!! They may not be big at all!!"
"How is it possible??? Didn't we see it with our own eyes? They are really big...!!!" Nami said.
Zoro also nodded: "Yes! Luffy, those figures are really big!"
"You got it wrong!!"
Luffy pointed to his own shadow on the ground and said, "Look, this is my shadow. Due to the oblique sunlight, my shadow is at least ten meters long now, but
Am I that tall?"
Hey?
this...
Hearing what Luffy said, everyone was stunned!!!
yes...
Shadows can be deceiving!!!
Luffy continued: "Do you still remember those huge black shadows? They can move freely in 360 degrees, which means that the bodies of these shadows are definitely humanoid creatures As long as their position and those cumulus clouds reach a certain distance and angle, isn't it reasonable that their shadows are placed so large???"
Usopp: "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!!! Luffy so smart!! It was analyzed right away!!!"
Trafalgar Law: "Red border Luffy is insanely smart!!!"
Nico Robin: "He manage to deduce all of this because of a shadow..."
Tony Tony Chopper: "We also had shadows at the time, but why didn't we think of it...
Benn Beckman: "I feel..... Red-border Luffy might be smarter then me..."
Shanks: "Hahaha!!! "
"Uncle!! If we want to go to Sky Island, is there a good way???"
He judged in his heart that Sky Island exists, so Luffy naturally wanted to see it
The original ideal was to see the world, and now there is such a magical place as Sky Island..., how could he not go???
"no!!"
Cricket shook his head immediately, "Your ship simply cannot withstand the impact of the knock up stream!! Even if we help you strengthen the ship, the ship will still be damaged, What's more... Even if you really go up, if there is no Sky Island on it, then you might..."
Cricket picked up a clod of soil, then let go of his hand, and immediately, the clod was shattered!!!
Nami pulled Luffy's arm: "Luffy..., I also don't think it's suitable to go up!! If the judgment is wrong, then we will be greeted by broken bones!!"
Usopp said: "If the Merry bears the impact of the knock up stream, it may cause serious injuries..."
It seems that Luffy smiled: "Don't worry about this!! Don't worry, I cherish the Merry more than anyone else!!! With me on the deck, the sea current will not cause her any harm"
"As for the consequences if there is no Sky Island in the sky..., I have also considered it!!! Have you forgotten that I can turn into a hot air balloon?" Luffy said.
hot air balloon.…....
the crewmates suddenly remembered that when Luffy fell off the head of Sea Kings, Luffy directly turned into a hot air balloon and floated away with the Merry...
And Luffy said that the Merry will not be damaged by the knock up stream!!
Although everyone can't figure out how to keep the Merry from any damage, everyone knows that Luffy will never lie to them
Since Luffy says it can be done, it can be done!!!
