Chapter 613 Sky Island God

...

Sky island.

The Holy Land of Arpaiado.

Bangor City.

A dream city built by combining the characteristics of sky island clouds with precious land and forests from Qinghai.

Just as Arpaio is like a bright pearl floating alone above the monotonous white sea, this miraculous city is as dazzling as a gem and is the pride of all Sky Islanders.

The clouds here are not ordinary ones. After special processing, they become extremely tough and elastic. They can support magnificent buildings while retaining their original softness and whiteness.

The houses are arranged in an orderly manner, and each one looks like a carefully carved work of art. Their walls are made of light clouds, yet they are surprisingly strong and durable.

The road surface is also made of specially treated clouds. It is flat and wide, neat and clean. There is an indescribable soft and comfortable feeling when you step on it, commonly known as the feeling of stepping on shit.

The streets were bustling with people coming and going. The residents of Sky Island did not show any hostility or surprise when they saw the wingless Qinghai people.

"Wow! What a beautiful city!"

Led by the newly-acquainted angel girl Conis, the Straw Hat Pirates arrived at Sky Island and came to the town built in Arpaiodo.

"It feels so good, I can't help but want to roll around a few times! Hey, Usopp, Luffy, come and try it!"

"Wow! It's really comfortable!"

"Hahaha, right?"

Chopper and Ersha rolled around on the road paved with clouds.

...

"Gulu!"

"Ah, I'm hungry. Meat! Meat! I want to eat delicious meat!"

Luffy was extremely excited when he arrived at the new place, jumping up and down. After a while, his stomach began to make growling sounds again.

"Luffy, don't run around. If you get into trouble in the city, you will be captured by the God's Guard."

Conis quickly reminded.

"I'm not afraid. If anyone tries to catch me, I'll beat them all away!"

"Hey! Luffy! How could you not listen to the advice of a beautiful and kind angel sister! How rude of you! Ah! Angels, that's awesome!"

Sanji surrounded Conis and showed his courtesy to her.

"Tsk, you horny cook."

Looking at Sanji with a pig-like face, Zoro couldn't help but complain.

"Tsk, stupid Sanji!"

Luffy also learned to retort.

"Damn it! Luffy, you bastard..."

"Bang! Bang!"

Seeing that the two were about to start a fight, it was only when Nami intervened and punched each of them that they finally calmed down.

"Okay Luffy, you don't have a penny on you. If you run around on your own, you won't have money to eat! Just follow us! And don't forget our main mission this time!"

Nami reminded in a small excited voice.

"Gold! Gold! This is the legendary Golden Land! We must find more gold to bring back."

"Hehe, then I won't be joining you guys. I want to go to the nearby forest to look for any ancient ruins or something."

Robin said with a smile.

"Ah, Miss Robin, in Arpaiado, Qinghai people are not allowed to enter areas other than Bangor City without permission!"

Conis hurriedly spoke up to dissuade him.

"Is that so? I'm just an archaeologist and I won't destroy any ruins, right?"

"Well, if you have a reason to go, I can take you to see Lord Ganfor, and if you can get his consent, you can go."

"Oh, okay. Then please take me to talk to your master later."

In order not to implicate the kind-hearted girl who led the way, Robin did not choose to take the informal route.

...

"Huh? This is? This must be a lie, right?"

The group arrived at the square in the center of the town, and suddenly they were unable to move.

"Gold? Right on the road?!"

Nami's eyes widened.

"Hmm? The historical text?! I didn't expect I wouldn't have to look for it! That's great. Eh! What is this...?"

Robin was also surprised.

"Ah! Barbecue man?!"

In the center of the square stood a huge five-meter-high golden statue, with a black square stone beneath it.

The statue depicts a young man with a pair of small wings on his back and a lively kitten standing on his shoulder. The man has a kind and loving smile on his face, and his deep eyes seem to be able to see through everything. He opens his arms as if he wants to embrace the entire sky.

The carving is lifelike and every detail is vivid. The texture of every inch of skin and every feather is smooth and realistic. Under the sunlight, it shines brightly and is breathtaking.

"Hey, Nami, give me one million Baileys quickly, please."

Luffy suddenly held out his hand for money.

"Why do you suddenly want a million Baileys? I don't have that much money! Absolutely not!"

Nami clutched her wallet tightly and refused without hesitation.

"I owed this guy money for the last meal in Alabasta. We agreed to pay him back the next time we meet."

Luffy scratched his head and said sincerely.

"boom!"

Nami punched hard, hitting Luffy on the head with her fist and shouted loudly.

"Idiot! Look carefully! This is a statue! Not a real person! And how could one person spend 100 million Baileys in one meal! You've obviously been scammed!"

"Soga, it turned out to be a statue... It's so similar that I didn't even realize it!"

Luffy hit the palm of his left hand with his right fist and said belatedly.

"But the barbecue was really delicious. I wasn't fooled."

"Idiot, this is not a question of whether it tastes good or not."

"Hahahaha, of course the most important thing about barbecue is that it tastes good."

Luffy laughed foolishly, Nami looked mad, and everyone could only wipe their sweat helplessly at having such a captain.

"Hey, Luffy, are you sure you met this person on the statue?"

Robin was a little surprised.

"Yeah, that's right, but he doesn't seem to have wings."

Luffy said after stroking his chin and studying it for a while.

"Really? Are you back? That man."

Sanji's ears moved, as if he sensed the "danger".

"Eh? Luffy, Ms. Robin, have you both met Lord Gol?"

Conis asked in surprise.

"Lord Gel? Yes, that seems to be the name."

"Weiwei did say that it was this guy called Gel who resolved the chaos among hundreds of thousands of people in the square! He was an old friend of his father. Who is this guy? Why is there a statue of him on Sky Island? The key is that such a large statue is actually made of gold! Ahhh, I love it so much!"

Looking at the imposing golden statue in front of her, Nami's eyes sparkled. She had to say that this was definitely the most handsome "man" she had ever seen. It was really "too dazzling".

"Successfully stopped a country's war? That must be Lord Gel. Lord Gel is the god who came to save the world from suffering."

"I heard from my father that more than 400 years ago, it was because of Lord Gol's arrival that Sky Island ended our nearly -year-long conflict and saved countless lives that would have otherwise died in the war."

"in addition……"

Conis happily told everyone the history of Sky Island and the legendary story of Gel, the only true god of Sky Island.
