Chapter 176 Shandia Warrior
...
Kurokas was indeed a doctor who could prolong the life of even terminally ill patients. Within the time it took to smoke a cigarette, his special medicine began to take effect, and everyone on the ship slowly regained their vitality.
As soon as Biya and the other animals recovered, they excitedly ran around on the deck, full of curiosity about the clouds that looked like the same ones around them.
Po and Labu even jumped into the sea of clouds and swam around the boat, experiencing the difference between the empty sea and the blue sea.
"Wow, Sister Funi, come and see, it's so beautiful! The clouds here are like a white sea!"
Fanny took out her camera and took pictures excitedly, while writing and drawing various notes in a notebook.
"Yes! It's amazing that the ship can actually sail on the clouds. This must be the legendary Sky Sea, right?"
Gel leaned over to take a look, pointed out an error in Funi's notebook and said:
"This is not the Sky Island Ofni, this is the White Sea, which is 7 meters above the sea. The Sky Island needs to go higher, and it will be the White Sea, which is meters above the sea."
"Eh? Isn't this where the Sky Island is? But the ocean current has disappeared, how are we going to get up there?"
Funi raised her head and asked curiously, resting the pen on her chin.
"Hahaha, don't worry, the boat will naturally straighten itself out when it reaches the bridge, and there will be a way to get up."
Gel smiled confidently and kept the secret.
"Oh? Captain, have you been to Sky Island too?"
Kulokas was even more curious than Fanny. The information Captain Gel said was not something that someone who had never been there could know.
"Haha, the nickname given to me by the people in the martial arts world is Little Smart. Is it just a name that I got for nothing?"
Ger gave a thumbs up and pointed at his nose, asking him to pretend.
"The captain is really amazing. He has a wide range of knowledge and knows everything!"
Fanny sighed seriously, without any intention of flattering. She felt that she could not be as wise as the captain because she had not read enough books, and she must work harder in the future.
But Kurokas would not believe Captain Gel's lies. When he tricked him onto the ship, he said that Captain Gel had his own intelligence network and so on. Now that they have become one of his own and have been getting along for a long time, Kurokas discovered that Captain Gel has no intelligence network at all. He is idle all day long, either fishing or daydreaming. He does not behave like an intelligence chief at all.
But he can know all kinds of secret information.
So Gel's answer gave Kurokas the answer in his mind, so he stopped asking further questions.
As partners, everyone has long known that Captain Gol has many strange abilities that cannot be explained by devil fruits. Knowing the past and the future may be one of the captain's many incredible abilities.
That is really terrible and must be kept secret!!
"somebody is coming."
Barrett's light words interrupted the conversation of everyone on the boat.
Barrett has been on the battlefield since he was a few years old, and has long developed the habit of staying alert at all times, whether eating or sleeping. Coupled with his powerful observation Haki, he was able to notice someone approaching at the first moment.
In fact, he had already sensed the enemy when they were still far away, but when the enemy came closer and was sure that they were heading for their ship, Barrett spoke up to remind them.
"Oh? Is it the angel who came to welcome us?"
Upon hearing this, everyone on the boat excitedly ran to the side of the ship and lay on the railing. The short ones stood on stools and tiptoed, looking impatiently in the direction Barrett pointed, wanting to see what the humans living in the sky looked like.
"Wow! It's amazing that they have wings! Are they really angels? They are flying over the sea of clouds, just like skiing!"
When Bia saw two figures speeding on the white clouds, she instantly recalled her experience of skiing on Magnetic Drum Island.
As the distance got closer, I saw two people wearing masks with patterns that looked like primitive tribal totems. Although I couldn't see their faces clearly, I could still tell from their skin color, body shape and clothing that they were a man and a woman.
The man was naked from the waist up, with only a torn grass skirt around his lower body, and a khaki shield in his left hand. It was very strange that he was wearing such a primitive outfit but holding an RPG rocket launcher in his right hand, which was not something a primitive man should have.
The woman wore a python-skin vest, a leopard-skin miniskirt, and held a shield in one hand and a spear in the other. Her attire and equipment were very primitive, except that her skin was white with a rosy glow, which did not look like the skin color of a primitive person who lived in the open air.
"Hehehe, even though it has wings on its back, it doesn't look like an angel coming to welcome us!"
Seeing that the two men were coming aggressively, the man had even raised his bazooka and aimed it at the ship. Moria smiled with his fangs showing.
"Target, eliminate!"
"Boom!"
The masked man came up without saying a word and fired a cannonball directly at Gel's ship!
Gel couldn't help but frown. These so-called descendants of great warriors, the Shandians, were really a group of reckless men.
400 years ago, when the great warrior Kalgra first met the big talker Wenbrand Rolando, he started fighting without saying a word. If Rolando didn't have some skills, he would have been killed without even having a chance to speak. There would be no sincere and touching friendship story between the great warrior and the explorer.
Talking about this story of pure friendship between men that has been passed down for hundreds of years, Gel feels that the Chongtian Ocean Current must be credited with the greatest credit.
If it had not washed half of Gaya Island into the sky, this romantic friendship would have ended on the day when Rolando returned to Gaya Island with the king and the army!
Moreover, even though Rolando has considerable strength, he did not dare to resist or escape when the king ordered him to be executed, and he obediently waited for his death. If the king ordered the extermination of the Shandians to seize the gold, he would most likely not be able to stop it. He might even not dare to disobey the order and take action against his old friend. Therefore, not only would the so-called friendship be overturned, but it would also turn into hatred.
What's even more ridiculous is that Rolando, as an outsider, bravely killed gods and saved people, and angrily denounced the ignorance of the Shandian people. Because they didn't understand diseases, they were afraid of diseases, but instead of trying to find ways to cure them, they were superstitious about gods and feared theocracy.
He was so foolish that he sacrificed his own people and relatives to a giant snake (the god Khasi worshipped by the Shandia people). Finally, after unremitting efforts, he finally made the Shandia people wake up, no longer superstitious and afraid of theocracy, and also gained the friendship of the Shandia people.
After returning to his country, Rolando completely surrendered to the imperial power and was publicly executed by the king with the title of "Big Liar"! His descendants were ridiculed by the world for hundreds of years with the infamy of "Big Liar".
How ironic!
