Chapter 109 Found the golden lantern fish!
Then, Lex and Gion stepped out of the different space.
Gion greeted the Red Earl.
"Master."
The Red Earl nodded slowly.
As for the largest Lusca in front of him, Gion ignored it because he had seen too many of them in the past few days and was tired of eating sea kings.
Lex asked:
"Master, where is the pure gold that Luska mentioned?"
The next moment, the Red Earl stretched out a bony finger, which turned into a vampire's sharp nail and pierced directly into Lex's skin.
Then, a memory about 'pure gold' suddenly appeared in Lex's mind!
This is the special ability that combines the Ocean's First Observation Haki and the Vampire Fruit - memory transfer!
That's why Lex let the Red Earl stay here to listen to Lusca's report about the pure gold, while he went to have a quarrel with Gion first.
Lex chewed on the key information about 'pure gold', 'golden lantern fish', 'undersea nest near the doldrums in the North Sea', 'lost island'...
Combined with the plot that he was familiar with, he had roughly confirmed that this was pure gold!
What is pure gold?
More than 170 years ago.
The 'Island of Steel' on the Grand Line is called Alkami, and its name resounds throughout the Grand Line because of its abundance of various metal alloys.
Countless forces have steel trade with it, even the government is no exception.
Naturally, a group of metal scientists emerged.
Among them, the most outstanding are the Mischina couple.
Unfortunately, the couple's only daughter, Miskina Olga, suffered from South Sea Emperor Fever, an incurable disease!
So, his father began to devote himself to researching the legendary 'pure gold', which is said to be able to freeze time.
In this way, Olga's life can be maintained.
Next, it’s the highlight moment!
Olga's father, a metal scientist, actually created a miracle metal that did not belong to this sea - pure gold - through countless experiments with a probability of one in a billion!
However, something even more unfortunate happened.
The news was leaked, and countless forces rushed to Alkami to fight for the pure gold!
Olga's mother also unfortunately lost her life in the turmoil.
Olga didn't know that her father was studying pure gold in order to save herself from a terminal illness. She just thought that it was her father's research that killed her mother.
From then on, Olga hated her father.
However, the only thing to be thankful for was that the pure gold ring was given to Olga by her father, and the little girl's life was saved.
As time passed, a giant lantern fish that loved gold was attracted by the pure golden light and swallowed half of the Iron Island - Alkami in one gulp!
From then on, there was only one more legend about "pure gold" on the sea, and the island of pure gold and steel - Alkami, became a lost land that had half disappeared!
This story happened more than 1490 years ago in the year 170 of the Haiyuan calendar.
And now, Rex, who knows all these secrets, has finally found the whereabouts of the giant golden lantern fish under Luska's sea king exploration!
An underwater nest near the doldrums of the North Sea!
In a different space.
Lex activated the space fruit and rushed to the North Sea with the Red Earl and Gion.
“That’s what this is about pure gold.”
Lex ended his story, but Gion on the side felt a little unsatisfied.
The legend of a scientist father who, in order to save his daughter, broke the taboo and researched the forbidden item - 'pure gold' is still very topical.
In particular, Gion was looking forward to it even more since he was about to obtain this legendary metal.
"Faster, idiot."
Gion urged.
"My dear, this is the fastest speed known on the ocean."
"But what if the pure gold is obtained by someone else in advance?"
Gion is obsessed with 'eternal youth'.
"Why not just find them, kill them and take the pure gold? Why ask about such a simple thing?"
"Huh? Yeah."
Gion was stunned for a moment.
I almost forgot who my man is.

It's evening now.
The bright moon hangs high in the North Sea at midnight.
The three figures appeared on a small island on the edge of the North Sea.
No one would notice that this nameless island on the edge of the North Sea is close to the doldrums, and underneath it is the golden lantern fish carrying pure gold!
Under the night sky, the moon was obscured by dark clouds, and the cold moonlight was only sparsely scattered on the sea.
There were only three lonely figures on the coast of this small North Sea island.
Lex pulled Gion and asked the Red Count:
"Has it been locked, Master?"
A red light flickered in the Red Earl's eyes, and his observation Haki was pushed to the extreme. He and Lex searched for the giant golden lantern fish together.
Luska only determined a general location.
The exact location still needs to be explored by both of them.
This operation was extremely secretive.
Except for Luska, Lex, Red Earl, and Gion, no one knows yet.
Lex didn't want anyone else to know.
Pure gold is as attractive to people as One Piece in later generations, and it is enough to arouse the ambitions of everyone in this ocean!
Because even if most people don't know the specific function of pure gold, but in the government's words, it is "enough to buy the wealth of the whole world"!
Lex naturally hopes that the sea will be in chaos, but it cannot be in chaos because of himself. If the matter of pure gold is exposed, I am afraid that many more people who are not afraid of death will attack Lex.
These people can never be killed because ambition never ends.
Then, the red light in the eyes of the Red Earl and Lex flashed almost at the same time.
"Found it!~"
Lex spoke, and the Red Earl nodded slightly.
The next moment, a flash of azure light appeared, and Lex left the island with Gion and the Red Count.
Under the deep sea, the huge golden lantern fish is flipping its body out of boredom. A random shake can cause the direction of the ocean current to change!
This is the physique of a super giant sea king!
Although it is not as great as Lusca, the Lord of the Elephants and other giants that are comparable to gods, it is also quite extraordinary.
And at this time.
seabed.
A dark blue light shield emits a bright blue halo, like a blue pearl in the dark deep sea.
The light shield was naturally supported by Lex using the power of his fruit.
The alien space is open and isolated from everything, including sea water!
As we all know, seawater is a natural nemesis for devil fruit users and can make them lose their strength.
However, it does not make it lose its ability.
In other words, as long as you have the ability to isolate yourself from the sea water, you will not be cursed by the sea!
The most classic one is the natural ice fruit of Aokiji Kuzan, the former admiral of the future navy and member of Sword.
If you can ride a bicycle on the sea, you can naturally go into the sea.
Lex's space fruit is of the 'super god system', so it is natural for it to isolate a piece of sea water.
Even if Lex wanted, he could exist in another dimension without leaving the alien space, just like the space was folded.
This way you can be at the bottom of the sea without being restrained by the sea water.
It can be understood as 'virtualization'!
