Chapter 269 Devil’s 3 Corner Zone
...
In the evening, the sea surface reflects the red glow in the sky, and the water and sky are the same color of a unique red.
On the sea level, two flying bird silhouettes came from afar.
...
"Hehehe! Boss Gel! We are back."
Moria's beautiful laughter could be heard from a distance, and Gel stood up and stood at the bow to greet them.
"Whoop whoosh!"
Moriah and Senior folded their wings and landed back on the deck.
"Boss Geer, the men sent by the birdman were very unconvinced and were beaten up by us again, hehe!"
Moria said with a grim smile.
"Well, I'll beat him up. Then we can go and complain to Doflamingo about his subordinates' poor service attitude. We had to teach him a lesson. At least we should charge him a little for his hard work."
Gel said nonchalantly that he had always encouraged his crew members not to be bullied outside.
“Hehehe, see, I told you that Boss Gel will definitely support us if we beat them up! Now you believe it, right?”
Moria patted Senior's back proudly.
"I just don't want to waste my time."
"It won't take much effort for me to beat them up."
Senior didn't want to pay attention to this guy. He was tired of listening to him all the way. He walked forward, handed a small wooden box to Ger and said:
"Captain, Devil Fruit."
"Hohoho! Good job!"
Gel rubbed his hands excitedly and opened the box hurriedly. He saw a devil fruit in the box that looked a bit like a windmill.
【Ding! 】
(Unknown devil fruit detected, automatically analyzing...)
Analysis successful!
Superhuman series. Spin-Zhuan Fruit!
"Helicopter Fruit!"
Having been misled so deeply by Buffalo's original owner, Gel didn't know for a moment what else it could do except turning a part of its body into a propeller, allowing it to fly like an airplane, giving the user the ability to fly, and using it as a hair dryer.
The development is a bit useless. It seems that there is a Triceratops among the Six Flying Dragons, which can produce the same effect without the Spin-Tron Fruit.
"You've worked hard, eat something and go take a rest."
Gel said to the two generals, and then temporarily put the devil fruit into the space and wait until he could think of a use for it.
"Okay, now that everyone is back, let's set sail."
...
Devil's Triangle
The Ming Wang was brightly lit.
"The fog is so thick, it's like night time, and it feels so spooky."
Bi Ya said this with some palpitations as she looked around. She tightly hugged the Labang rabbit ball, which was already bigger than a two or three-month-old piglet.
(Don’t say you’ve never seen a two- or three-month-old piglet before, you don’t know how big it is, it’s as big as a roast suckling pig.)
"It's okay, it's just a normal fog, I don't notice any danger."
Ajin said calmly.
"Hehehe, how can it be so gloomy? Why do I feel so refreshed~!"
Moria closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said with a look of enjoyment.
"That's because you are not normal, Brother Moria."
"Isn't it because you are too timid, little girl Bi Ya?"
The two began to argue with each other on a daily basis.
"This should be the legendary Devil's Triangle, right? It is the only way to get to the first half of the Grand Line. It is said that hundreds of ships disappear here every year, and when they are found again, they are all empty. Some people even claim to have seen ghost ships carrying the dead floating on the sea."
Xiaobaike Funi's online answers.
Gel looked puzzled. Shouldn't the transformation into an empty ship be the reason why Moria was captured later? Why is this rumor spreading now?
"Yes, I heard that wandering ghosts will look for living people to possess, and they like to possess children the most!"
Gel added with a spooky smile.
"Ah! How scary! Is this true, Captain? Could it be that ghosts really exist?"
Franky, the youngest on the ship, was so scared that he jumped directly onto the iceberg.
"Of course it's true. We are here to find the ghost ship."
"Hey, let me go! You're strangling me."
The iceberg struggled to pull him away.
"The empty ship where the crew disappeared that Miss Funi mentioned is probably not haunted by ghosts, because this is the only way to the second half of the Grand Line, and it is not far from the Sabaody Archipelago. I have heard that many slave ships will come to the outskirts of this sea area to ambush and capture pirate slaves. Some experienced slave ships will even go into the fog to set traps and look for hunting targets, so the legend of the ghost ship may also be their doing."
Tezulo analyzed.
"I see."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Haha, you should have said it earlier. I'm glad it's a human being. I'm not afraid of him if he's a human being!"
Little Franky scratched his head and laughed.
Captain Gel let a group of children on the boat play and fight while he reached out and touched the strange fog. It would be more accurate to say that the Ming Wang was sailing into the fog of the Devil's Triangle than to say that the ship was swallowed up by the fog in an instant.
Perhaps the mist surrounding Zou would keep ships out and always follow the movement of the elephant master.
The fog in the Devil's Triangle may also have a certain degree of self-awareness, but the difference is that the fog will actively cover approaching ships and can interfere with the navigation of ships to a certain extent by moving its position, making it easy for ships entering this sea area to lose their way and never be able to escape.
"Keep going, there shouldn't be anything that can pose a threat to us, but it's better to be safe than sorry, stay alert, and explore all the shipwrecks you encounter. There may be many pirate ships that are lost here and can't get out, and everyone is dead, leaving only a shipload of treasure floating on the sea! Guys, show some adventurous spirit, and all the treasures you find will be yours!"
Captain Gel encouraged the little ones with a smile.
"Wow, really? I smell adventure already!"
"I'll go too, I'll go too."
Several people suddenly became excited, and Franky shouted the loudest, completely forgetting that he was just shouting that he was afraid of ghosts.
Soon, the Ming Wang encountered the first ship, which was an old-style two-masted sailing ship. The sails and flags were already in tatters. It was hard to tell whether it was a pirate ship or a merchant ship in its "original life".
Biya takes the lead, Akin is the backup, and together with Franky, Iceberg and Enel, the five of them form an expedition team to explore the abandoned shipwrecks they encounter.
It's true, they really found a lot of gold, silver, treasures and jewelry. Team leader Bia and Captain Gel bought a metal safe with a password and stored their found property. Several people earned their first pot of gold at a young age.
The group was in high spirits as they sailed along, tirelessly searching for ghost ships they encountered on the road. Finally, before leaving, they set fire to the ships that had been trapped and wandering in this sea for who knows how long, to directly liberate them.
