Chapter 185 Enemy Shadow, Attack from the Seabed! (two in one)

It was already a month ago that Ji Guoyuan had their eyes on Moonlight Moriah.

At that time, they were resting in the Navy Branch—they overheard a passing merchant talking about his experience at sea.

One day, the other party encountered a thick fog while sailing on the sea, and in the thick fog, they encountered an "island". On the "island", there were many zombies.

The horrible scene immediately frightened the merchants back to their boats, and then hurried away.

When the thick fog dissipated, the people on the merchant ship did not see the island that landed in the fog before.

When the merchants talked about this experience, their eyebrows were beaming, as if they encountered some supernatural event at sea, and they were lucky to escape, and they were also grateful that they managed to escape from the strangeness.

And that experience also became the talk of the merchants when they were drinking.

Ji Guoyuanyi and the others overheard each other's experience, and Yuanyi at that time immediately became concerned about this matter.

There is no way, the construction of the naval branch has to pay a huge amount of material and labor costs every day. Now that the construction project is coming to an end, Ji Guoyuan still has a funding gap of almost one billion yuan that needs to be filled. With the funds they have now, they can only support it for another half a month.

Originally, Ji Guoyuan thought that there were swarms of pirates in the new world, and he only needed to reach a tacit understanding with King Liku, relying on the ability of their branch to catch more bounty criminals, and they could easily fill the funding hole for branch construction.

But unexpectedly, with the news that Ji Guoyuanyi's troops were stationed in Dressrosa, the expected thing that the pirates came to find fault with the challenge did not happen at all.

These pirates learned to be smart one by one, and all avoided the route of Dressrosa. Yuanyi and the others were able to bump into pirates in addition to the first few months, and they couldn't even see the shadow of pirates during this period.

It wasn't until this time that Ji Guoyuan realized that he had underestimated his name in the world.

At the beginning, he naively thought that he was at most a minor celebrity in the new world, and there were only three deeds that were publicized by the navy in total.

One is the Flying Pirates who cleaned up the Golden Lion Shiki before, and the other is "rescued the abducted child from the Roger Pirates".

As for the last one, it happened just a few months ago. It cleared up a pirate group called Bloody in the New World. The captain was Bloody Kevin, who was worth a billion Baileys. Yibeili up and down.

From Yuanyi's point of view, these things he did were just small things, the golden lion Shiji who will be defeated by Wang Lufei in the future, a fictitious "rescue", and another one, which is a billion small miscellaneous fish.

But the small things in Yuan's eyes, in fact, every one is a big event that can shake the world!

Regardless of the status of the Golden Lion Shiji and the Roger Pirates in this world, just the Scarlet Pirates are one of the few powerful pirates in the new world.

Captains Worth a Billion Where are there so many big pirates worth a billion Baileys in this world? !

You know, when the navy recruits Qibuhai in the future, the bounties of those pirates who had just become Qibukai at that time generally would not exceed one billion.

Even for the famous 50-50 split like Crocodile, the bounty has not exceeded 100 million.

It is conceivable that in today's era, what kind of big man is a pirate whose bounty can reach one billion.

The reputation was publicized, and the number of pirates on the Dressrosa route decreased sharply, which made Yuanyi and their "income" less.

In order to support the construction of the branch, Yuanyi had to go to sea frequently to find pirates.

In fact, as early as Ji Guoyuan handed over the head of the giant soldier pirate group to King Liku and asked Dressrosa to exchange for the bounty, the Navy Headquarters had already realized the trick here.

Most of the rewards offered by pirates are for people to see.

Ordinary pirate hunters can't deal with slightly stronger pirates at all. As long as the bounty of a pirate exceeds 10 million, they will either die in the hands of the navy in exchange for merit, or be blacked out by the pirates and disappear here. piece of sea.

Destroying the pirate group with a total bounty of hundreds of millions at one time and coming to the navy to receive the bounty, this kind of thing has not happened a few times in so many years.

And now, it happens frequently in Dressrosa.

The people in the headquarters are not fools, so they don't know what happened here.

However, Gang Gukong turned a blind eye to this. Anyway, he can only choose one of merit and bounty. Yuan Yi chose to exchange the bounty with the head, and he was relieved. When Ji Guoyuan was mentioned as a general, he couldn't even explain to other navies.

However, if a boy under the age of 18 is promoted to general, he has no way to explain to the world government.

Therefore, the branch and the headquarters have formed this wonderful tacit understanding.

"Lieutenant General, we have been at sea for more than ten days, and we still haven't found any trace of Moonlight Moria."

"Considering the time required to return and the remaining supplies on board, we should almost go back."

The sky was clear and clear, and Ji Guoyuan stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the sea, with a slight sadness on his brows.

After counting the supplies, Cyrus came to the deck, walked to Yuanyi's side, and reported to Yuanyihui.

When going out to sea, in order to reduce the load and speed up the speed of the warship, Yuanyi only brought a month's rations and fresh water when he came out this time.

Up to now, half of the time has passed. If there is no harvest in a short period of time, it is necessary to consider returning to the voyage.

"Well, it seems that I am a little whimsical."

"If my guess is correct, those merchants must have landed on a ship."

"Zombies. It should be the Moonlight Pirates of Moonlight Moriah."

"But in the vast sea, the possibility of finding those guys is still too low."

"Notify me, cruise for another two days, if you don't get anything, go back."

Ji Guoyuan turned his head slightly, and ordered to Cyrus, this time out to sea, Yuan left Koshiro at the base to supervise the work, and only brought two adjutants, Cyrus and Yixiao, and Mihawk "Reform-through-labour prisoners" and a group of sailors.

In the past few days, Yuanyi has also been thinking about whether to get some patrol ships. This ship is really too big, and the cost of a voyage is also very high.

If you are not in charge, you don't know the price of oil and salt. It was only when Yuan Yi personally commanded a warship that he realized how important money is to the navy.

"yes!"

Cyrus responded, and then walked towards the cabin.

And not long after Cyrus left, as the warship sailed, the originally clear sky was soon covered by dark clouds.

The fine rain falls from the sky.

In the sea area in front of the warship, a mist rose inexplicably.

"Um?!"

As soon as Ji Guoyuan raised his head, looking at the suddenly cloudy sky, he let out a small sigh.

"The weather in the new world really changes at will!"

With a sigh of emotion, Yuan Yi shouted towards the back of the cab: "Slow down the speed of sailing and turn on the searchlight."

As Yuanyi's shout came into the cockpit, the spotlight at the bow of the ship was turned on directly, and the beam of light directly shone into the fog. The warship also slowed down quickly, and slowly sailed into the thick fog.

After entering this thick fog, the rain decreased, and this drizzle seemed to be blocked by the thick fog in this area.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Yuanyi couldn't help stretching out his hand, and couldn't feel any raindrops falling down.

The thick mist quickly wet Yuanyi's hair.

At this moment, Cyrus, Yixiao and Mihawk also returned to the deck. Originally, Yixiao and Mihawk were drinking tea in the cabin, but when they felt the speed of the warship slow down, they thought something happened, so they immediately went to the deck to check.

As soon as he came to the deck, he saw the thick fog around him.

"Lieutenant General, do you think this dense fog is possible?" Cyrus suddenly became excited as he observed the surrounding environment.

When Ji Guoyuan heard the words, he shook his head slightly: "I'm not sure, my sense of domineering doesn't sense the breath of human beings."

"Maybe not here."

Boom! ! ! !

As soon as Ji Guoyuan finished speaking, a muffled sound suddenly came from the bottom of the sea. At the moment of the loud noise, the entire warship seemed to be hit by something, and there was an obvious tilt. The navy on the deck was caught off guard and fell to the ground. on the ground.

And Cyrus and the others also quickly grabbed the railing, and their expressions changed suddenly.

"There's something in the bottom of the boat!"

Mihawk let out a low cry, and after stabilizing his body, he quickly probed towards the water. However, under the cover of thick fog and the sea water, he couldn't see the underwater situation clearly.

"Is there something? I can't feel it!" When Mihawk shouted, he smiled and grabbed the railing with one hand and the crutch with the other, tilted his head slightly, then frowned, and said suddenly.

And Ji Guoyuan was also full of seriousness for a while, because like Yixiao, he had no sense of what was under the boat at all.

But there is no doubt that there must be something under the boat!

Boom! ! ! !

After the inexplicable impact, the warship had already tilted obviously, but before the warship returned to its normal position, the violent impact hit the warship again.

But this time, the strength was stronger than that time just now, and the warship that had already tilted itself was in danger of toppling over at this moment.

"Smile!"

At the critical moment, Ji Guoyuan greeted with a smile. And at the same time he shouted and smiled, Yixiao had already drawn out a blade.

"Leave it to me!" The power of the smiling devil fruit was directly exerted on the warship, and the momentum of the warship's overturning stopped instantly, and then the bow of the ship was also quickly straightened.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the impact came again.

"Boom!" But this time, the sound of the impact was even clearer. The second after the impact came, a piercing siren sounded from the warship.

"The bottom of the cabin has been damaged and water has entered?!" Cyrus whispered in astonishment the moment he heard the alarm.

When Ji Guoyuan heard the alarm, he quickly looked at him and smiled.

Without waiting for Yuan to give an order, he smiled and pulled out the long knife in his hand, and the terrifying lift directly supported the warship. In just a few breaths, the entire warship had already left the sea and began to lift off.

"I want to see what it is!"

Before Ji Guoyuan could make a move, Mihawk had already grabbed the handle of Hei Daoya's knife, quickly removed it from his back, and then jumped and fell directly into the sea.

The arrogance of knowledge and knowledge has failed, whether it is Yixiao or Mihawk, there is actually some uneasiness in his heart.

Faced with this situation, Mihawk planned to use a knife to eliminate his uneasiness!

As Mihawk jumped off the deck, Ji Guoyuan and Cyrus also quickly looked towards the sea. Not long after Mihawk's figure disappeared into the thick fog, a cyan sword light flashed from the thick fog.

The next second, the sea was directly separated by Mihawk's slash, and the huge waves that were set off quickly spread towards the surroundings. The wind howled, and the thick fog on the sea also dissipated a lot at this moment.

And a huge black shadow also quickly floated up from the bottom of the sea.

The black and red blood directly dyed this sea area, and a strong stench came to the face as the black shadow floated up.

Soon, the culprit of the attack on the warship surfaced. It was a giant fish that looked like the king of the near sea. Judging by its length, it was several hundred meters long.

"Aquaman?" Seeing this thing, Cyrus couldn't help but muttered, his face full of astonishment.

If it was an attack from the Sea Kings, how could Yixiao not perceive it?

"At best, it's a juvenile sea king, and it's a corpse!"

As soon as Ji Guoyuan walked to the side of the ship, he bent down to look at the Neptune corpse on the sea, frowning. The ones who attacked them were not so much juvenile sea kings, but rather the corpses of juvenile sea kings.

The body exudes a strong rancid smell, and it doesn't look like it was just beheaded. The head of this young sea king has been separated from the body, and it is also floating on the sea at this moment. Yuan Yi looked at the head of the sea king and found that the mouth of this sea king was densely nailed with countless iron sheets, which seemed to be man-made. sealed his mouth.

Just looking at the degree of decay of this corpse, it may have been a month.

"What the hell is going on?!"

Cyrus resisted the urge to vomit, looked down at the corpse on the sea, and asked.

Ji Guoyuan seemed to have realized something for a while, but he also frowned with some doubts, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, Yuan Yi said to everyone:

"It should be the masterpiece of Moonlight Moria."

"He is an ability user of the shadow fruit. He can stuff the captured shadow into the corpse, making the corpse a puppet obeying his orders."

"Our knowledge and domineering can't perceive it, probably because the one who attacked us was a corpse."

"It's just that what I didn't expect was that the manipulated puppet can still move in the sea."

"I don't know if my judgment was wrong."

"Smile, leave this sea area first, repair the hull, and then look for traces of the other party."

"The corpse can escape the domineering capture of knowledge, but Moonlight Moriah and his men can't do it."

"We have come to the right place, we must not waste this opportunity!"

Following the order from Ji Guoyuan, Yixiao used his fruit ability to control the warship to quickly fly away from the sea area. After stopping in a seemingly calm sea area, Yixiao slowly put the warship back on the sea. However, in order to let the boatman They are easy to repair, and they can still dump the warship with a smile, so that the holes in the bottom of the ship will not be pressed in the sea water.

The warship stopped, and the sailors on board got busy repairing the ship.

And Yuanyi stood on the deck, silently spreading his knowledge and arrogance, looking for traces of the enemy.

After some rush repairs, the warship also recovered a certain degree of mobility. Although the repair methods of the sailors were crude, they were sufficient.

After the repairs were completed, the warship began cruising through the fog.

Soon, Ji Guoyuan's knowledge and domineering will be rewarded.

Yuanyi's frowning brows gradually relaxed.

He has already sensed the trace of the enemy!
