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

Chapter 91 Quiet and Thoughtful
Jhin's blade stopped just a finger away from Skepgate's throat.

It wasn't that he suddenly changed his mind and decided to let go of the man kneeling on the ground, but a slender hand pinched the spine of his knife, preventing the deadly blade from moving forward even a bit.

"what are you doing?"

Jhin's forearm felt a little sore because his slashing attack was suddenly stopped, so he wanted to move it a little.

But the blade seemed to be frozen in space, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not move it, so he had no choice but to ask La, the culprit.

"What this man said might be true."

Ra seemed not to notice Jin's small movement. He gently moved his wrist to remove Jin's knife from Skepgate's neck and explained.

"What really?"

As Jhin continued to ask, he felt his hands being easily pushed away by the force coming from the other side.

"Something about the 'Golden Country'."

"I found some strange manuscripts in the island's archives. They were about deciphering texts, and they mentioned something about the 'Golden Country'."

La loosened his hand, turned his head and looked at Skipgate, who was still kneeling on the ground in a daze, and asked:
"Can you tell me more about the logbook?"

[Ah~ Angel, the angel is looking at me~]
[The angel is talking to me~]
Skepgate was in a trance at the moment, just looking at La, as if he had lost the ability to think.

"Mr. Scapgate?"

Seeing no response from the other party, he asked again.

[Ah~ It's so beautiful~ the voice of an angel~]
"Bang!"

Seeing that the other party was still like this, Osi, who had been standing behind, couldn't help but step forward and knock on the other party's head.

"Hmm? Ossi, what are you doing all of a sudden?"

Obei asked in confusion at Ossi's sudden action.

"I think this guy with the afro is obviously scared by Jhin's flaming head. Let's see if we can give him a thump like we would a TV. Maybe that will fix it~"

"Forehead……"

As expected, the more sophisticated the instrument, the simpler the maintenance method. Ossi knocked Skepgate back to earth from heaven with this move.

"Ah, ah! Uh, who knocked me?!"

"Yo~ I'm finally back to life!"

"Come on, repeat after me: 'One, two, three, three, two, one, ah~ah~'"

Ossi said this while waving his hands in front of Skepgate while lying on his side.

"One, two... Ugh~ No, why should I recite this?"

Skepgate recited a few sentences and suddenly came to his senses, touching his head again.

"My head is still there, I'm not dead!"

"It seems that he is indeed awake."

"If you're so quick, answer my eldest sister's question. What exactly is this 'Golden Country' and the logbook?"

"Do you believe me?"

Skygate became a little excited when he heard what the other party said.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I don't mind sending you to death again."

Jhin was getting a little impatient because he hadn't put his knife back into the sheath.

"Oh, alright."

Upon hearing this, Skepgate didn't dare to say anything more but quickly said:
"We got that logbook from Paradise when we first set sail.

We were passing by an island called Gaya when we discovered the wreckage of a strange pirate ship in the waters nearby.

"Oh? How strange?" Ossi couldn't help but interrupt.

"Hmm~ How should I put it…"

“Generally speaking, ships at sea are destroyed by storms and waves, bombs fired by enemy ships, or attacks by sea kings. These can be determined from the traces left on the wreckage.

But that ship was different, the way it was damaged was like it had fallen directly from the sky."

"Falling from the sky?" Jhin thought of the Golden Lion's ability.

“That’s right, but we didn’t pay much attention to it at the time. We just thought about going up and looting the ship because it looked very old.

Finally, we found the logbook in the captain's room." "But the logbook was written in a strange language that no one could understand.

So I was planning to throw them away, but a fellow on the boat was very interested in them, so he kept them."

"And then you discovered that it actually contained records of the legendary 'Golden Country'?"

Jin still felt that this was a bit too coincidental.

"Indeed, my companion used to be an ancient Chinese scholar, and even after becoming a pirate he still kept the habit of studying these things.

He recently deciphered the contents of the logbook, which revealed information about the Golden City - Shandora."

After finishing this series of information, Skepgate continued to stare at the people of Beast with a nervous look on his face.

……

After a moment of unbearable silence, La spoke first.

Her voice was still as ethereal and gentle, but she asked a strange question.

"What's the name of your companion?"

As if he hadn't expected that the "angel" before him would speak first, Skepgate was stunned for a moment, then quickly replied:
"His name is Wright. Chuck Wright."

"Huh? What's wrong? Sister La, do you know this person?"

"Ah."

La nodded, then looked at Kaido who had been silent.

"Captain Kaido, what this man said must be true."

"Oh? What do you say?"

"The manuscripts I just mentioned found in the archives were signed by 'Trump Wright'.

And the contents of those manuscripts are indeed mostly related to various languages.”

"Yes, yes! That's right, Wright was originally in charge of the files and accounts on the island."

Seeing that there was hope, Skepgate immediately added excitedly.

"So the 'Golden Country' might actually exist."

At this time, Burfat stepped forward to help Skepgate up, and even kindly helped him dust off his pants.

"uncertain."

Unexpectedly, La shook her head.

"I'm just saying their logbook is probably real, but no one can be sure of its authenticity unless they go and see it for themselves."

"..."

Hearing this, Burfat stopped dusting his hands and asked tentatively, "How about... you just keep kneeling?"

Skygate: "..."

Skygate did not kneel back down, but looked at Kaido as if he wanted to say something else.

But before he could speak, Kaido took the first step and looked at La.

"I hear you want to go for a walk? What's the matter? Are you feeling restless and want to move?"

"That's probably why I'm interested in comparing legends to reality."

La did not deny this.

"Besides, if it's true, then relying on that gold can speed up our plan a lot."

After hearing this, Kaido was also tempted. After all, if he followed La's original plan, by the time it was realized, he would probably be at the age of retreating to the edge of the times.

He didn't want that, nor did he want that. What he wanted was to personally participate in that grand war in his prime.

Coming back to the present, Kaido was still a little worried when he saw La made the decision.

"If you want the gold, you have to get rid of that guy John first."

"Even though he's injured, he's not someone who can be defeated in a few blows. Let me go with you."
