Chapter 94: The Ape Pirates

At this moment, a voice with a faint smile came into everyone's ears: "Want to salvage that boat? It's very simple."

The person who spoke was Ling Tian. He walked leisurely to the fence of the Merry and looked down at the sea below from a high vantage point.

Then, Ling Tian spoke softly: "Spiritual Skills · Assistance · Control Water."

As he finished speaking, the originally calm sea surface suddenly became restless, and countless bubbles continuously emerged from the water, as if the entire sea was boiling.

However, surprisingly, the sea beneath the Merry was still calm.

Not long after, pieces of broken decks and wreckage gradually emerged from the bottom of the sea before everyone's eyes, as if an invisible giant hand was slowly lifting them up.

"Oh wow, that's amazing!" Luffy widened his eyes and looked at the ship that was held high by the sea with excitement, with dazzling stars flashing in his eyes.

Just as Luffy and the others were staring at Ling Tian performing spiritual arts to steadily lift up the wreckage, Usopp suddenly pointed in a direction in horror and shouted, "What...what is that?"

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and gasped in shock.

It turned out that there was a group of huge sea snakes! Their bodies were much larger than the Merry, twisting their hideous bodies and swimming towards this side.

"Get lost!" x4

As Usopp and Chopper panicked, four deep roars sounded at the same time.

Then, four invisible energies spread out rapidly in all directions like ripples, with the Merry as the center.

Suddenly, a strong energy wave burst out from the bodies of Lingtian, Luffy, Zoro and Sanji, like a storm coming, with great momentum.

However, this powerful energy fluctuation cleverly avoided the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates, which was obviously intentional on their part.

In the blink of an eye, the group of originally aggressive sea snakes were violently hit by these four energies. They became dizzy and finally collapsed to the ground powerlessly.

“What what what, what happened?”

The others were not too surprised to see the scene, because they had undergone two years of special training in the virtual space with Luffy and others, and they knew each other's strengths well.

However, Chopper was frightened and screamed.

Robin stared at what had just happened, and wondered in his heart: "Could that momentum just now be the legendary Conqueror's Haki?"

She turned and asked Nami. As someone who had followed Crocodile, Robin knew a little about the New World and naturally knew the rumors about the Conqueror's Haki.

"That's right, that's the domineering color domineering." Nami responded affirmatively.

After hearing Nami's answer, Robin couldn't help but feel astonished - there were actually four people with this rare ability on their ship!

"What exactly is Conqueror's Haki?"

Chopper interjected with a confused look on his face, clearly confused by the terminology Nami and Robin were using.

Seeing this, Robin patiently explained to Chopper the origins of Conqueror's Haki.

"One in a million is qualified, that's amazing!" Chopper looked at Robin in astonishment, his mouth opened so wide that it seemed as if an egg could fit in it.

He really couldn't imagine that the moves used by Luffy and others were so rare and precious.

Just as everyone was immersed in surprise, a low and noisy voice suddenly came from not far away: "Good salvage, good salvage..."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a strangely shaped ship slowly approaching the Merry.

The bow of the ship is carved with a lifelike monkey, which is particularly eye-catching.

As the boat approached, a furry figure appeared in front of everyone.

He stood at the bow, posing in a self-proclaimed cool pose, and shouted, "Prepare for salvage! All the ships in this sea area belong to our Ape Pirates, and to the great salvage king - Ape-sama, mine!"

The people who came were none other than the Ape Pirates. Even though they were pirates, what they did had nothing to do with pirates. They were just salvaging the wreckage of ships that fell from Sky Island in this sea area.

However, the reason why they were able to approach the Merry smoothly was due to the fact that Ling Tian had stopped using spiritual arts at this time. Otherwise, with Ling Tian's powerful strength, they would probably not be able to get any closer.

"I ask you, what on earth are you doing here? This is my territory!"

After posing, the ape straightened his body, stared with his round eyes, and shouted loudly at Ling Tian and others.

Seeing this, Ling Tian shook his head helplessly, muttering to himself: "Is this guy a fool? Doesn't he see that we are busy salvaging the sunken ship?"

He looked up at the ape, his eyes revealing a hint of speechlessness and impatience.

You know, in the original plot, they didn't see Luffy and the others getting off the ship to salvage, but now that they saw them salvaging the ship with their own eyes, the other party could actually ask such an extremely stupid question.

Robin looked at the figure from a distance and said thoughtfully, "It seems that the man is also interested in the sunken ship."

Nami nodded, agreeing with Robin. She replied softly, "Yes, let's observe the situation first before making a decision."

Just then, the ape noticed the whispering of the Straw Hat members, but received no response.

His expression suddenly darkened, and he asked with a hint of annoyance, "Hey! What on earth are you guys mumbling about? Answer my question now!"

Facing the ape's question, Ling Tian did not show any weakness and directly retorted: "Are you blind? Can't you see that we are salvaging this ship?"

"Okay, Nami, let's go." Ling Tian turned and said to Nami.

Then he added: "I just checked, there is nothing on the ship."

It turned out that when everyone's attention was attracted by the ape just now, Ling Tian used his physical clone skill and quietly boarded the sunken ship to find out what was going on.

However, to his disappointment, almost all the items on the ship had decayed and would crumble into pieces at the slightest touch.

Of course, there is still some gold on the ship, but Ling Tian will not take it out now, because there are no more lottery opportunities in his own lottery shop, so Ling Tian has to save some treasures now.

He didn't want to be like Zoro in the original work, who owed Nami Berry and was ordered around by her.
