Chapter 185 Departure from Fish-Man Island
The speedboat sailed at high speed on the sea for half a day. Tiger, who had recovered some strength, sat up straight and looked at Jiger who was lying opposite him and fell asleep.
Suddenly, something strange happened to Jiger.
A puff of white smoke rose from his right arm, and the sleeve was quickly melted by the high temperature, revealing the arm underneath which was glowing scarlet light.
The spiral black lines seemed to have life, slowly wriggling on the arm.
Tiger stared with his eyes wide open, not daring to breathe, until the cabin under Jig's right arm began to show signs of melting, he had no choice but to try to call Jig.
However, Jiger was sleeping so soundly that even when Tiger finally yelled, he showed no signs of waking up.
In desperation, he could only reach out to touch Jig, but as soon as he touched Jig's body, he felt an intense burning sensation on his hand, and a sizzling sound came from it.
He endured the pain and pushed Jiger hard, then quickly pulled his hand back. At this moment, his palms were covered with blisters from the burns, which looked very creepy.
Fortunately, Jiger woke up because of his push. When he opened his eyes and removed the Bible covering his face, his right arm returned to normal.
Jiger, who had just woken up, raised his hand to support his forehead, then slowly put his hand down, looked up at Tiger, frowned and asked,
"You just pushed me, what happened?"
Tiger pointed at Jiger's face and said in surprise,
"You, your eyes..."
Jiger was stunned for a moment, and without asking Tiger, he took out a mirror from the Dark Bible and looked at his face.
In the mirror, he saw that the pupil of his right eye had turned into a bright gold.
This sudden change made Jiger himself a little confused.
At this time, Tiger came over and told Jiger what had just happened to him. After listening, Jiger raised his scarlet right arm and took a look, his expression slightly solemn.
Come to think of it, it seems that all these changes started after he used the power of his right arm when fighting Whitebeard.
Maybe I should go see Vegapunk for a checkup.
Thinking of this, Jiger subconsciously stood up and wanted to use his divine power, but he saw Tiger looking at him eagerly.
Jiger raised his eyebrows and temporarily gave up the idea of using Shenwei. Instead, he asked Tiger,
"Where are you going next? Continue traveling?"
Tiger shook his head honestly and said,
"No, I want to go back to my hometown, Fishman Island, to rest for a while."
When Jiger heard this, he thought it was perfect, as Fishman Island was located right below the Red Soil Continent, so it was on his way.
He didn't want his trip to end so abruptly. Apart from the pupil of his right eye turning golden and occasional drowsiness, he didn't feel anything unusual.
Why not take this opportunity to go to Fishman Island for a stroll, and then use Kamui to go directly to Vegapunk.
Then Jiger said,
"Well, I can take you back, and it happens to be on my way."
Tiger was immediately delighted when he heard this. Although he had recovered some strength, after his previous experience, he really didn't dare to swim back alone in this state.
However, he did not dare to hope that Admiral Jiger would send him back. After all, Jiger had just saved his life, and he was already very grateful.
So when Tiger heard Jiger said he would take him back, he knelt down and shouted,
"Thank you very much!"
Jiger waved his hand and said,
"That's not necessary. As the saying goes, we should save people to the end. Let's send... Never mind. Sit tight. I'm going to speed up."
Having said that, Zig did not give Tiger any chance to prepare. The flame behind his neck suddenly grew larger, and the speedboat turned around abruptly. A huge and thick column of flame spurted out from the tail, containing a terrifying high temperature. Wherever it passed, a large amount of sea water was instantly evaporated into water vapor.
Immediately afterwards, a series of deafening sonic booms resounded all around. Driven by powerful power, the speedboat shot forward at an astonishing speed like a burning meteor, leaving only a long trail.
With his hands in his pockets and one foot on the bow, Jiger looked extremely cool, but Tiger, who was lying behind him, was in a miserable state.
He was lying on the ground in a "Tai" shape, his already wide mouth now stretched even wider, with the corners of his mouth almost reaching his ears. Strong air currents continuously poured into his open mouth, making it impossible for him to make a sound.
Fortunately, his physical fitness is still good. After adapting to this speed, apart from feeling a little uncomfortable, there is no negative impact on his body.
This speedboat was originally built by the Navy Headquarters specifically for Jiger. The material is naturally extremely strong, and the power is needless to say. Jiger just needs to step on it... no, just set it on fire.
In less than half a day, Jiger arrived at the edge of the red earth continent.
Jiger stretched his muscles slightly, turned around and said to Tiger who was lying on the ground,
"Okay, on to..."
"Wow!"
Before Jiger could finish his words, Tiger suddenly stood up and laid on the edge of the speedboat, stretching his head out and vomiting, and he finally stopped after vomiting all the bile.
After vomiting, Tiger was still lying down, looking like a salted fish that had lost all its water.
Jiger shrugged and said,
"It's a little fast, but you should be more comfortable in the sea water."
Tiger nodded weakly and said weakly,
"Yes, I'll be right down..."
"No, I'll go with you, and you have to show me the way."
After saying that, Jiger stepped on the bow of the boat with a little force, pushing the bow directly into the sea. Then he released flames again, and the speedboat dived down.
After entering the sea, Tiger immediately became more energetic, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Suddenly, he woke up - isn't Jiger a devil fruit user? This speedboat is not coated!
He turned his head suddenly and saw that Jiger was still standing steadily at the bow as if nothing had happened.
Because of being in the sea water, Jiger's hair was all flying upwards.
Then, in front of Tiger's shocked eyes, Jiger actually opened his mouth in the sea water and made a clear sound.
"Don't just stand there, point me in a direction."
Tiger had begun to doubt the fish's life. It was already outrageous enough that a devil fruit user could move freely in the sea water, but he didn't expect that there was something even more outrageous. Jiger could actually breathe in the water and even talk!
Also, will the flame behind him never go out?
Have humans evolved to this extent?
