Chapter 233 Next Destination (2 in 1)

Raleigh, Jabba, and Sol appeared here, shocking Jinping.

He really couldn't imagine how the navy sent these three old pirates from the Roger Pirates to prison together.

"Blame me."

Sol sighed, his eyes hidden in the dim light were full of gloom.

He stretched out his right hand, grabbed the black-and-white striped trousers at the broken leg, and gritted his teeth: "I used to be the fastest runner, but now I'm a waste. If it wasn't for me..."

"Shut up, you old dwarf."

Jabba directly interrupted Sol's words, and then habitually reached out to touch the pipe, but he felt empty when he didn't want to.

Before going to prison, everything on their bodies was confiscated, leaving them only a prisoner's uniform.

Without being able to touch the pipe, Jabba put down his hand silently, looked at Sol, who was full of self-pity, and said, "Barrett's ability has been awakened. In that case, no one can escape."

"Stop comforting Lao Tzu."

Sol stubbornly took all the faults on himself.

Jabba's arm moved a few times, tugging at the chains, making a harsh thud.

Thor looked at Jabba's arm, which was slowly shaking, and said vigilantly, "Jabba, you bastard, are you trying to beat me?"

"You saw it."

Jabba twitched the corners of his mouth, and then deliberately shook the chain several times, making a thud.

Sol said angrily: "I just admit my mistake, but I didn't expect to be beaten by you old bald man."

"Then just shut up, old dwarf."

Jabba glared at Thor.

Saul was at a loss and remained silent.

Jinbei looked at Jabba and Sol who had just finished their fight with a cold sweat, and then looked at Rayleigh.

Reilly spread his hands helplessly and said: "In short, this is the situation,

The two of them quarreled a bit, but it didn't happen often, just get used to it. "

"..."

Very flat and speechless.

"It won't be a few days if it's going to be noisy."

Sol looked blankly at Jinping, who was sitting cross-legged in the corner, and said lightly, "It won't be long before the navy will execute me directly."

"Stop talking about these stupid things."

Jabba glared at Thor with a frown.

Rayleigh looked at Sol, silent.

"Once the grievances and hatreds in the world are forged, how can it be so easy to write them off."

Facing the eyes of the two old friends, Saul, who had already expected his end, was so calm that it seemed that the things he was talking about were just some family gossip, not death.

"Sunny has found her own way, and I have lived long enough... It's a pity that I can't read any newspapers related to that stinky boy anymore. However, the newspapers during this period are all It's about to become that brat's headline show."

"Now that I think about it, maybe that stinky boy knew I was going to have an accident, so he paid me the rest of the 'headlines' in advance, haha..."

Speaking of which, Sol suddenly thought of Garp's arm being cut off by Maud in Marinfando, and he couldn't help laughing.

However, the most unforgettable thing for him was how naive and amazing a shot Maud shot to save him when he was still in Mad Hatter.

"Raleigh, Jabba."

Sol restrained his laughter and looked sharply at Rayleigh and Jabba.

"It's okay if I die, but the two of you shouldn't explain it here."

"..."

.........

Somewhere in the New World.

The dread barque drifted in the wind.

Since the 500 zombie coolies made by Maud were officially put into use, the progress of the ship's construction has been significantly faster.

In addition, with the help of these 500 zombie coolies, Bebo, the crew members who used to be coolies, finally freed their hands.

Castle, laboratory.

The room made of blue bricks was filled with a chill.

In the center of the room, there is a wide platform.

Blackbeard's body was placed on the platform.

Beside the platform, Luo was holding a pen and paper and was burying his head in recording something.

Maud was also in the lab, but stood farther away, as if this would not disturb Luo's work.

The room was so quiet that only the rustling of Luo Ji's pen remained.

After a long time, Luo let out a long breath, closed the book, and put it on the workbench beside him.

Maud glanced at the notebook that Luo placed on the workbench and asked, "It seems that the progress of the 'chimera' experiment is not as easy as imagined."

"Well, after all, it is a technology involving the human body, so before the formal practice, a lot of preparation must be done."

Luo took a deep breath, raised his fingers and opened the field, covering Blackbeard's corpse.

Maud looked at Luo who was back at work in the blink of an eye, smiled, and said softly, "I won't bother you anymore."

With that said, Maud turned and left the laboratory.

"If the 'chimera' surgery plan is successful... Counting weapons, I can use at least five Devil Fruit abilities at the same time."

Maud walked slowly in the corridor, thinking about the chimera surgery that would be settled at some point.

If it goes well, even if the Hunter's Note is weak in the later stage, Maud can rely on the chimera surgery to once again usher in a significant improvement in the comprehensive strength of the four nine-stars.

After a while, Maud returned to the room on the top floor of the castle.

Closing the door with a backhand, Maud walked through the hall, went straight to the balcony, and looked down at the square below.

In the center of the square, Jim and Runti, who had transformed into dinosaur forms, were fighting hard to kill each other.

Around the square, Maud's crew watched with interest.

Maud leaned in front of the balcony fence and said to himself, "Jim's 'ability' is only seven stars. It stands to reason that in a head-to-head confrontation, he should be crushed by Runti's nine stars."

Having said that, Maud looked at Jim who was being beaten by Runti.

Although Jim's odds of winning were almost invisible, there was no sign of losing the slightest in a short period of time.

"Ancient species is ancient species, really excellent endurance."

Maud's gaze fell on Jim, who had transformed into a triceratops.

In the face of Runti's swollen head dragon's strong attack, Jim, relying on the unique defensive power of the Triceratops and the excellent endurance endowed by the ancient species, just dragged the showdown of disparity in strength into a protracted battle.

It's no wonder that Kaido, who aims to destroy the world, is so obsessed with the Zoological Army.

"Volatilize the value well, Runti."

Maud glanced at Runti for the last time, and immediately withdrew his gaze.

With Runti around, he is simply Jim's best actual combat target.

For this reason, it doesn't matter if the shadow is temporarily taken out and returned to Runti.

However, Runti, a rather stubborn woman, obviously wanted to kill Jim in the actual combat training.

It is a pity that Jim, who is also an ancient species, who has been abused all the way to the present, will not be killed by the headbutt so easily.

Maud left the balcony, went back to the lobby of the room, sat on the sofa, and continued to think about the chimera surgery.

crunch--

Just then, Lafayette pushed the door and walked into the room.

"Maud."

When alone, Lafayette calls Maud by his first name.

Maud looked at Lafayette, pointed to the sofa, and said softly, "Sit."

"Hohoho."

Lafayette smiled slightly, sat on the sofa directly opposite Maud, and immediately took out a few things and put them on the table.

There are two permanent pointers, and a yellowed map with a lot of holes in the corners.

Maud looked at what Lafayette brought out.

Because Lafayette is the navigator in the team, he is in charge of everything that can determine the route. Now it is taken out to let Maud, the captain, decide the next destination.

Maud picked up the yellowed map.

This is a map that outlines the topography of the island.

But in the center of the island on the map, a red cross is very conspicuous, and the upper right corner of the drawing has a skull and crossbones symbol that pirates like to see on the map.

Obviously, this is a very typical treasure map.

Maud rubbed the treasure map lightly.

This treasure map, and the accompanying permanent pointer, was a gift from the sky brought by the storm when they first entered the great channel.

Treasure maps, on the other hand, usually mean unknown treasures.

Of course, there could also be a pile of tattered empty boxes, and the danger of uncertainty.

When he first got this treasure map, Maud planned to try his luck at the location of the treasure map after changing ships.

If you're lucky, you might be able to find a lot of treasure at the treasure location.

However, the ship was replaced, but since Maud paid more attention to improving his strength and was not short of money, the treasure hunt plan was put on hold.

Over time, it was forgotten.

Maud didn't remember this until today when Lafayette took out the treasure map and permanent pointer.

"Lafayette, if you don't take this thing out, I almost forgot."

"Huh, at the current rate of transformation of the Terrorist Barque, a large amount of gold may be used in the short term, and the older the treasure map, the more likely it is that there is gold hidden in the treasure location it points to."

Lafayette explained why he took out the treasure map, and then picked up another permanent pointer.

"I remember you said that there is a lot of ready-made gold on the 10,000-meter empty island above Gaya Island, but we don't have a permanent pointer to that empty island, but we have a permanent pointer to Urki's hometown."

Having said this, Lafayette handed the permanent pointer of Urki's hometown to Maud.

Maud put down the treasure map and took the permanent pointer Lafayette handed over.

Inside the transparent glass sphere, the pointer is steadily horizontal, pointing in one direction.

Lafayette looked at Maud and explained: "Urki's hometown is on the empty island, so as long as you can reach the empty island where Urki's hometown is, you will definitely be able to find a way to the 'destination'."

"really."

Maud nodded.

Because the renovation plan of the Dread Barque requires a lot of gold, Lafayette will take out these two permanent pointers.

Maud stared at the permanent pointer in his hand and asked, "Which destination is farther?"

"Sky Island."

Lafayette answered quickly.

Judging from the tremor of the pointer, the location of the treasure map was most likely somewhere in the waters of the New World, while Urki's hometown of the empty island was in the first half of the Great Waterway on the other side of the Red Earth Continent.

"yes……"

Maud pondered, thinking about which route to choose.

Although the destination pointed to by the treasure map is relatively close, it may be a waste of time.

The empty island is far away, but as long as you can reach the destination, you can get a lot of gold 100%.

Should I try my luck at a nearby treasure location first, or just trek to the empty island?

Lafayette looked at Maud in thought, took out a photo from his pocket, and put it gently on the table.

Maud noticed Lafayette's move and couldn't help but look at the photo on the table.

In the photo, it is a tall man with grey-green hair.

The man wears a pink suit with gold jewelry on the ears, neck, and hands, wherever jewelry can be worn.

"This is?"

Maud raised his eyebrows slightly and looked up at Lafayette.

Lafayette immediately introduced the identity of the man in the photo.

"This is Gilder Tesoro, the king of the world's largest entertainment city 'Grand Tesoro'. He is known as the Golden Emperor, and he is also a person with the golden fruit ability."

Lafayette, as a navigator in the team, has been very concerned about it since Maud mentioned the Terror Barque transformation plan to everyone.

And when he knew that the later transformation of the Terrorist Barque would require a lot of gold, he had already started to prepare.

The giant ship Grand Tesoro made of gold and the existence of the Golden Emperor Tesoro were just one of the ways he collected information on how to get a lot of gold.

"Golden Emperor..."

Maud clenched his chin. There was no such character in his original memory.

But judging from Lafayette's brief description, the title of the Golden Emperor alone, and the Golden Golden Fruit... is enough to attract Maud.

That is to say, as long as the golden fruit can be obtained, it will greatly reduce the difficulty of transforming the horror three-masted ship.

Lafayette looked at Maud's reaction and knew that Maud did not understand Gilder Tezzolo, so he continued to explain:

"The original name of Grand Tesoro is Gulan Tesoro. Although it is called the largest entertainment city in the world, its body is actually a giant ship made of gold."

"Oh?"

Maud was a little surprised.

The giant ship made of gold inevitably reminded him of El Nilu's Ark.

It was also a ship made of gold, but not huge.

"If you want to get a lot of gold in a short period of time, looting the Guran Tezzolo is also an option, but only if we can find the Gulan Tezzolo, which has no permanent home."

Lafayette put three options in front of Maud.

The most difficult thing to achieve is to find the Guran Tezzolo.

The safest is to go to Urki's hometown.

If you want to gamble on your luck, go to the nearest treasure trove.

Maud's eyes were downcast, and he just thought for a moment before making a decision.

"Go to the location where the treasure map is located and try your luck first."

He wasn't the type to be far away, so he chose the route closest to his destination.

Even if the final result is a waste of time, you can directly return to the first half of the great channel, and then go to the empty island.

Along the way, although it can't be called a drop-in road, it's not too much to run.

"learn."

Seeing Maud's decision, Lafayette immediately picked up the permanent pointer to the treasure.

After a period of running-in, Lafayette has roughly mastered the method of sailing empty.

Although there is still a lack of judgment and control over meteorological changes, he is confident to take the team anywhere.
