Chapter 83 Chapter 83 Rum and Rum Island
·
Zheng Yue Shi Wu De Xiao Zi
Iska automatically ignored Charles' complaints, but he also wondered why this small island is named after the wine 'rum'?
"Iska, you are also very surprised by this naming method, right? But from another perspective, it is also simple and rude, because the water source of this Rum Island is not the pure water, groundwater or even sea water that we are usually familiar with, but rum!"
"Eh?!"
"Lilu? Lilu?"
Both Iska and Marilou in his arms looked at Shire at the same time, as if they were saying 'Are you kidding me'?
Charles shrugged: "Although I didn't believe it at first, the fact is that most of the water source of this Rum Island comes from the Rum Falls, and the waterfall is not water, it's all rum! It's a rum waterfall! Therefore, almost as long as there is water on this small island, you can drink rum!"
"Then how do the people here live? Can't they drink bars every day?"
At this time, Charles and Iska came to a bar in the town. After ordering three glasses of local rum, three bottles of rum and some snacks, Charles smiled and said, "Of course it's impossible. Didn't I say it before? The island's water source is mostly rum, and the underground water source is still fresh water. They live on this."
But even so, this Rum Island still amazes Iska, even Marilou. Since she came to the Great Channel, Marilou found that many things here are beyond common sense, but it also makes Marilou very fascinated to explore.
And this is where the magic of the Great Channel is. The Great Channel is a very special sea area, where the geomagnetism, celestial phenomena, ocean currents, and air currents are all in chaos. You must rely on a special compass called a "record pointer" to navigate on it.
At the same time, there are many strange islands, creatures and supernatural events in the Great Channel, and each island will have its own unique climate type. Some islands will have extreme climates with 48 seasons, and of course there will be normal seasons.
However, there is also a special situation, that is, there is only one fixed climate of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and there will basically not be any changes after that.
Spring is spring, autumn is autumn, and there is no alternation of seasons between spring and autumn.
On the other hand, this is actually an extreme climate, so you can see many things and things that go against common sense in the great channel, and the Rum Island in front of you is just a small part of it.
At this time, three glasses of local rum and three bottles of rum were also delivered, and only then did Iska realize that there were actually two kinds of rum?There are two kinds of wine glass and wine bottle, but isn't it all the same rum?
And Shire just smiled and signaled Iska to try the difference between the two. In fact, there is not much difference between the two, but if you taste it carefully, you will find that the rum in the glass is slightly sweeter, and Iska can't taste this difference because she doesn't drink often.
On the contrary, after a little tasting, Marilou found the difference between the two.
"It's amazing, Marilu, you can tell the difference~"
Marilou, who was praised by Iska, also touched her little head with a look of embarrassment, and then smiled.
"Actually, this glass of rum with two points of sweetness is the rum from the island's own water source, and the bottle is the most common rum in the market." Charles also took a sip of the rum in the glass and said:
"So in fact, the water source on this rum island is not rum in the true sense, but the water quality that tastes very similar to rum, and more importantly, it will not be drunk, let alone alcohol."
So if you just drink this rum-like water from Rum Island, anyone can do "a thousand cups without pouring".
After listening to Shire's explanation, Marilou and Iska also suddenly realized, but even so, they felt very novel.
At this time, there were more and more people in the bar, and at the same time, the surrounding voices began to become noisy. Of course, on the other hand, they could hear more recent most-discussed things and some gossip in the pirate circle.
Among them happened to be about the pirates with high bounties that Shire had eliminated in the past two months, and the most talked about was the 'Vulture Family Pirates'.
"Tsk tsk. The Vulture Family Pirates did not expect to be wiped out by the navy like this."
"That's right. It's ironic to hear that the 'mummy' Kedar and many pirates were hanged in the port by the navy to be dried alive."
"Eh? Then 'Vulture' Keith and the others didn't go to save his younger brother? I heard that 'Vulture' Keith is a very terrifying Devil Fruit user!"
"Huh? You must be so focused on going to the casino recently, you don't even know about such a big news. 'Vulture' Keith was also wiped out by the navy!"
All of a sudden, the bar began to discuss the destruction of the 'Vulture Family Pirates'. After all, as one of the four major forces on Rum Island, its influence is still very large. Even after more than a month, there are still many pirates discussing this matter.
At this time, Iska also subconsciously glanced at Shire, and there were many versions in the bar about the destruction of the 'Vulture Family Pirates'.
For example, the third and fifth children of the "Vulture Family" were beheaded by a navy, and the boss "Vulture" Keith could turn into a big vulture and fly in the air to kill all directions.
There were also people who patted their chests to ensure that they had witnessed the 'Vulture' Keith being cut into dozens of pieces in the air, and the screams did not directly turn into a rain of flesh and blood, but most people in the bar didn't really believe this outrageous statement.
But there is something even more outrageous, the third child of the 'Vulture Family' wanted to slaughter the town to avenge his elder brother and second brother, but was punched to the ground by a blue creature.
And Marilu, who was eating small glutinous rice dumplings, suddenly looked back, as if wondering who was talking about herself?
Of course, some people refuted this rumor, asking how it is possible. Some people said that they were hacked to death by the navy and the king's army, and some said that they were stoned to death by angry residents. Anyway, there are endless rumors of various versions.
But now these things are more just jokes for these pirates to entertain and entertain, and Iska also found that Shire went to the bar at this time and seemed to be talking with the boss. During the period, he saw that the bar owner seemed to give Shire a note.
After that, Shire and Iska left the bar and walked towards the southeast of the town. There seemed to be another port area on Rum Island. There were three port terminals on Rum Island, so it was also a very developed trade center. There were warehouses and pirates moving goods around.
"Iska, you are also very surprised by this naming method, right? But from another perspective, it is also simple and rude, because the water source of this Rum Island is not the pure water, groundwater or even sea water that we are usually familiar with, but rum!"
