Pirate: It’s not a phantom beast, it’s a phantom god!

Chapter 61 Cicada

"I want this thing!"

Big Mom pointed at the huge red cube stone in front of her and wanted to take it for herself without any explanation, which surprised the three people beside her.

"Are you sure you only want this historical text? Lingling, do you know anything?"

Shi Ji narrowed his eyes. He knew that Rocks had deliberately collected these historical texts back then, especially the red historical text in front of him which looked very special.

"I don't know what it's good for! And who said I only want this stone? I want a share of the treasure here too!
Big Mom didn't feel guilty at all when she heard Shiqi's questioning, but instead insisted that she must get a piece of the pie.

"Don't even think about it!"

"Either you take this stone and leave all the treasures here untouched, or I own this stone!"

Shiqi's attitude was also very firm. He wanted to see how much BIG MOM valued this stone!
"Shiji, you don't have to test me, I'm telling you clearly that I don't know what this thing is for now.

But I know that Rocks values ​​this stone very much, so it is a treasure!

Although I don't like the rubbish here, I must have a share as agreed before!"

Big Mom directly exposed Shiki's intentions and remained tough, refusing to give in.

Unlike John who only cares about treasure, although Rocks also likes to collect treasure unscrupulously, he actually values ​​more practical things.

For example, devil fruits, famous swords, etc.

For him who believes in the supremacy of force, as long as he has enough power, he can have as much treasure as he wants, and the things he values ​​are definitely not comparable to gold or gems.

"Besides, this thing was originally found in the Totland Sea. Now that sea area is mine, it's natural to return it to its original owner!"

At this time, the Queen of the Sea was no longer reasonable or logical, and her attitude was clear: she wanted the authentic text of history.

"Roar……!"

A low and dangerous voice came from Shiqi's throat, and anyone could hear the suppressed anger in it.

His eyes moved back and forth between BIG MOM and the main text of history, but seeing BIG MOM's determined look, he finally chose to endure it.

After all, he is not in perfect condition now.

"Hahahaha~ Since Lingling, you want it so much, I'll give it to you."

The atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

"Forget it, I already know it's in her possession. I can just snatch it back later." Shi Ji thought to himself.

This is his personality. Although he may be tolerant sometimes, he will always choose the most domineering way to solve the problem in the end.

It hadn't even occurred to him to ask for a copy now.

Hearing Shiki's words of concession, Big Mom nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the other two.

"Kaidou, Wang Zhi, what about you? Do you want to compete with me too?"

"I'm not interested in history! Hurry up and divide the treasure. I need to go look somewhere else."

For Kaido, who has achieved his goal, he actually wants to go back and take a look at his new territory.

"I don't care. I'm more concerned about when you will leave my island!" Wang Zhi was not interested in competing with BIG MOM for this thing of unknown function.

"Your island?" Shiqi looked over when he heard that.

"That's right, this island will belong to me from now on."

After saying that, Wang Zhi also glanced at BIG MOM and Kaido next to him.

Noticing the other person's gaze, Shiqi finally understood.

"So this is the condition you're asking for him to join, Lingling. You're quite generous!"

To be honest, Shiki has no interest in Honeycomb Island. It is too far away from his base camp and is surrounded by several forces, making it very difficult to take any action.

As a man who controls the sea from the sky, fixed territories on the sea mean little to him. If he wants them, he can just move a few from all over the world.

"Well, well, it's just an island anyway."

BIG MON waved her hand nonchalantly. As she already owned all the islands in the Totland Sea, she really didn't care much about this pirate island that was almost becoming irrecyclable garbage.

"Don't worry, Wang Zhi. Let us clean up the island for a few more days and help you look for any lost treasures or something..."

Listening to the other party's shameless and high-sounding words, Wang Zhi snorted in dissatisfaction. "Tsk! Three days at most."

"make a deal."

……

“Hu…cough…cough cough!”

At a considerable distance from Beehive Island, a small boat painted blue-gray was floating on the sea. Its unique camouflage color made it almost blend into the sea surface.

The surface of the boat was coated with a fine layer of film, and two pirates emitting a burnt smell were lying on it, gasping for breath in a mess.

"Woohoo! Well, that was a close call, Captain. I almost got blown to pieces. But that's not bad either, haha!"

Turning over, one of the pirates with an exaggerated afro said with a hint of excitement.

This person is none other than Bob, the leader of the John Pirates who detonated the Explosive Rock not long ago.

As for the remaining pirate, it was naturally John. He was in a more miserable state at the moment, with burn marks all over his body and hair, and a large blood stain on his chest.

"Fuhehehe~ Didn't it work? I knew you could do it, Bob."

“This was my first time teleporting so far, and I thought I would fall directly into the sea.

If that happens, we’re really screwed, hahahaha!”

Babu, a user of the superhuman teleportation fruit, can teleport long distances across space and can also transport others with him.

This was John's backup plan. After realizing that he couldn't defeat Sky, he decisively decided to use the explosive rock to deal a heavy blow to the opponent, and then he used the cover of the explosion and his subordinates' teleportation ability to feign death and escape.

At the same time, relying on the explosive power comparable to that of ancient weapons, they annihilated a large number of the enemy's men left on the island, weakened the enemy's manpower, and bought time for subsequent escape and even revenge.

As for the people on the island?

Anyway, they are just a bunch of rabble who are greedy for his treasure. John won't feel sad no matter how many of them die.

[It's a shame that Shiki blocked it in the end. What a troublesome ability! I don't know if he guessed I wasn't dead...]

Never mind. Even if you know, it doesn't matter. In this vast ocean, you think you can find me again? Haha~]
After figuring this out, John put his signature frivolous smile back on his face and turned over to make his injured chest feel better.

"Boss, are we going to recover the stolen treasures and make a comeback?"

Babu, who had recovered, asked, with a hint of expectation and impatience in his tone.

"Oh? Babu, you want to go look for my treasure now?"

John, lying on his back, suddenly stopped smiling and just looked at Bob.

Even though he was in an unprecedented state of disarray at the moment, his eyes were still so sharp that people dared not look directly at him.

Long before contacting Silver Axe and Wang Zhi, John had secretly transferred the treasures on the island in batches. What was left were just some broken stones that he was not interested in. They were heavy and worthless.

Originally, he planned to leave no treasure behind, but during the last transfer, he was spotted and the whole ship of treasure sank to the bottom of the sea in vain. He was so heartbroken that he dared not continue transporting the treasure.

So all that was left was the little bit of treasure that Shiqi and the others saw that had not been moved.

Ah, and that piece of historical text used as flooring...

"Of course not, sir. Your treasure is yours to manage."

John's eyes instantly calmed down Bob's mind, which was heated by the excitement of the life-and-death situation just now.

He knew very well that once treasure was involved, he would show no mercy to not only a cadre like himself, but even to his own son John.

The almost paranoid greed for treasure is the very essence of John, the pirate.

"Fuhehehe, don't be so nervous~ You're my savior now, how could I treat you badly?"

After hearing the other party's answer, John returned to his smiling face and made a big promise that he himself didn't believe.

"So, Boss, where are we going now?"

Bob breathed a sigh of relief and tactfully didn't continue the topic.

"Let's dive down first, and then we'll go straight through... huh?! Wait a minute!
"A ship is coming!"
