Chapter 485
The strange black stone disappeared, causing Perona to scream loudly, waking up Gekko Moriah who was sleeping on the big bed.
"Who's coming... who!"
Without the power to control, the bed under the Shichibukai creaked and broke into several pieces, and his body fell directly to the ground, and he was in a mess with the debris.
After Gekko Moriah stood up again, he took the initiative to ask Perona what happened. It was impossible for anyone to come in yesterday because he blocked the door with his body. If you want to come in, you have to step over him.
After understanding, he thought his partner was making a fuss. A broken stone is gone, and it's gone now. It's time to leave now. You can't delay any longer. Maybe you can get game for breakfast in the mountains.
Perona didn't continue to dwell on this matter. At the moment, going into the mountains with her adoptive father to find a grave is the most important thing. There is nothing to pack in the room for the two of them, so they opened the door and prepared to go to the hotel.
At the corner of the quiet corridor, a figure suddenly flashed. It turned out to be an old lady. Her face was gloomy, especially the one eye, which exuded a mysterious breath, making people feel nervous. The other eye was a deep black hole.
Her figure was like a ghost, looming in the dim light of the corridor, as if she came from another world, with slow and weird steps.
The owner's expression was cold and serious, without the slightest smile, as if he was full of resentment and dissatisfaction with this world. The whole scene exuded a weird atmosphere, which made people shudder.
"Leave quickly if nothing happens. This island does not welcome outsiders"
Another not-so-kind reminder made the two frown. I don't know what the owner was thinking. Can there be weak people staying in the hotel on the island in the middle of the night?
If Moonlight Moriah hadn't been in a hurry and didn't want to have a fight with this store, he wouldn't mind wasting time to expose the store's tricks. He was just showing off his skills in front of the Terror Bark Pirates!
After paying for the repair of the big bed, the Gothic girl and her adoptive father went to the depths of the island alone without any guide to find the ancient tomb they had been thinking about.
And the old lady store owner kept muttering in the room where Moonlight Moriah and the others had stayed: "Flesh and blood that are dozens of times stronger than the islanders, I want to eat it so much, why did you stop me from coming in, bitch?"
A deep male voice came from the woman's body, as if it was a cry from another world. The voice was low and powerful, which made people shudder.
At the same time, two tentacles protruded from the bottom of the woman's skirt. They were soft and flexible, and they slowly crawled on the floor. These tentacles were strangely green, and the surface was covered with tiny scales. They seemed to have life and explored the surrounding environment on their own.
The old woman's body began to tremble, her expression became twisted and painful, she tried to control these tentacles, but they seemed to have their own will, completely out of her control, the tentacles left a trail of sticky liquid on the floor, emitting an unpleasant smell.
The whole scene was full of weird and terrifying atmosphere, making it impossible to imagine what this woman had experienced. For Moonlight Moria, a nightmare had just begun.
In the depths of the island, the dense jungle spread like a green ocean. There were no ready-made roads here, only tangled trees and dense branches. To go deep into this mysterious area, you must take the initiative to open up a passage.
Moonlight Moria relied on his physical superiority to rush directly, the fragile trees made a crisp sound, the leaves fell rustling, and occasionally sawdust splashed, emitting a faint wood fragrance. The two pirates stepped on the path they had just opened up and moved forward carefully, with soft rotten leaves and slippery soil under their feet.
The sun shines through the gaps between the leaves, forming mottled light and shadows. The jungle is filled with a damp atmosphere, mixed with the fragrance of grass and trees. Various insects sing in your ears, and birds jump on the branches, occasionally making crisp calls, adding a touch of vitality to this silent jungle.
The deeper you go, the more mysterious and solemn the jungle becomes. The tall trees cover the sky and make people feel the insignificance of human beings.
"These trees are a bit old. Maybe the son of the devil did not deceive me. There really is an ancient tomb under this island."
After digging graves for so many years, Moonlight Moria has summed up experience. The tombs of ordinary people are mostly scattered together without any rules, and there are no valuable things.
The tombs of princes and nobles are a bit interesting. They are usually guarded by soldiers sent by the state. The rich burial objects are a lot of money. When Moonlight Moria is in his heart, he often picks such tombs to make money from the dead to prepare for the pirate group.
Big people who were a little famous during their lifetime will not have too many tombs after death.Luxurious, but usually descendants go to pay respects and sweep flowers, and some people are treated to have their names engraved on the monument. Ryoma in Wano Country is treated this way, otherwise he would not be dug up by pirates.
And what I encountered today has an 80% probability of being related to ancient tombs. Due to the long history, these tombs are hidden in the primitive jungle and have not been visited by outsiders for hundreds of years. The location of the tomb can only be judged by the direction of the mountain. Whether you can enter the tomb passage depends on luck.
This kind of work of digging pits and finding tomb passages is certainly not easy for beautiful girls to participate. Perona hid in the shade of the trees to avoid the sun and watched her captain start working.
Moonlight Moria squatted down with a firm look in his eyes, clenched his hands into fists, and began to punch the ground one punch after another. Each punch was powerful, and the earth and rocks splashed as if telling his determination. His breathing was rapid and sweat slid down his forehead and dripped into the soil.
After a hundred punches, as time went by, a big pit was dug out on the ground. But he didn't stop at all, still punching non-stop, with only one belief in his heart - to find the tomb passage.
If one of the two people could see the Haki, it wouldn't be so troublesome. Digging a pit with bare hands can only be a matter of luck. If you want to find the tomb passage, you have to dig more pits.
The first pit failed and there were rocks underneath. The second pit failed and there was water underneath. The third pit failed and there was a pile of animal bones underneath...
Perona sat under the tree, yawning, watching her adoptive father working alone nearby. This place has become bumpy and all kinds of vegetation have been severely damaged. Moonlight Moria seemed to have endless energy and had been trying his best to find the tomb passage.
At noon, under his persistence, a piece of soil and stone under the twentieth pit was finally lifted, revealing a dark hole.
Moria's eyes flashed with joy, and he sped up the digging speed. The hole became larger and larger, and the outline of the tomb passage inside gradually became clear.
