Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me

Sky Island and Fishman Island are among the islands that Rocks most wants to visit.

He was actually really looking forward to it, treating it like a trip.

Anyway, there's no one on the sky island he wants to go to who can threaten him...

what?

Enel, the user of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit?

Let's see if we can withstand his punches first.

He still has his sword after taking the punches!

Unless Enel is not on Skypiea, or has not provoked him.

However, according to the timeline, the other party should be lording it over the Sky Island.

Given his personality, wouldn't you want to provoke him?

That guy calls himself a "god"!

Once they realize they've arrived at the Sky Island, the other side will definitely try to eliminate them...

Unfortunately, Rocks also occasionally referred to himself as a "god"!

A world cannot have two gods, so war is inevitable!

That's why... Rocks disliked the Celestial Dragons who called themselves "descendants of gods".

Like Enel, the Celestial Dragons lowered the prestige of being called "gods"!

No, the Celestial Dragons dragged "gods" into a cesspool.

This was something that Rocks, who called himself "the god of the new age," couldn't tolerate...

"So here's the question: where is this Sky Current located? Is it really possible to get to the Sky Island this way?"

Nami raised her fair index finger: "I've read about Skypiea in a book. Skypiea are floating; they're not fixed in one place."

“There is more than one Sky Island. Some Sky Islands are located in relatively fixed positions, relying on naturally formed special ‘clouds’ to float in mid-air. They do not move with the wind, and even if they do move, they are limited to a specific area.”

Lockes remembered watching videos in his previous life and seeing someone analyze Hai Shuxuan's situation.

It was determined that some of the sky islands are in relatively fixed locations.

It will float, but only within a specific area.

At least in the original work, the Sky Island that the Straw Hat crew arrived at was relatively fixed.

The fact that it still hovers over the waters around Jaya Island after hundreds of years is the best proof of this.

That's why Lox didn't think he couldn't find the Sky Island.

"Lox is right, some small sky islands will move with the wind, but the positions of large sky islands will remain relatively fixed."

He smiled and said, "When I was young, I also visited a certain sky island. The location of that sky island is relatively fixed, and there are specific flight routes to reach it."

Nami was taken aback: "Are there specific routes to reach Sky Island?"

"some."

"..."

Nami opened her mouth.

He glared at Lockes, baring his teeth, and said, "There's a direct route to the Sky Island, why did you choose such a dangerous method, Lockes? You don't value our lives!"

Lox grinned: "That's what makes it feel adventurous!"

Nami: "..."

"I remember the area with the towering currents was near Jaya Island?"

Robin knew about the surging sea currents.

They also knew in which sea areas the Sky-Reaching Current appeared.

It was recorded in the books she read for leisure.

Rocks nodded: "That's right, just head towards Jaya Island."

Nami was exasperated: "But where is Jaya Island located?"

"I'm ready."

Rocks was naturally prepared.

He pulled out a section of the Great Sea Route chart that he had purchased on the island of Seven Waters.

The exact location of Jaya Island is shown above...

Nami, taking the nautical chart, chuckled and said, "Are you really looking for a thrill? No, you're trying to screw over your navigator!"

Rocks gave Nami a thumbs-up: "Go for it, little Nami! I believe in you!"

"..."

Nami glared at Rocks.

She unfolded the nautical chart and, after determining the direction, pointed in one direction at a time: "Hard to starboard, head towards three o'clock!"

Under Nami's command as navigator, the Black Demon changed course.

Heading towards the location of Jaya Island...

……

In the next few days.

Apart from encountering a storm, the Black Demon did not meet any other "fated ones".

It lost some of its fun.

Some foolish sea kings attacked the Black Demon, but ended up as reserve food, stored in the freezer...

Sea creatures contain a lot of "energy" and are considered a high-end food.

Some sea monsters that resemble eels taste quite good.

It is especially suitable for grilling.

Sprinkle it with the flavorful salt brought by the "Water Gods" that Lox bought from the Seven Waters Island; the taste is absolutely superb.

It was very popular with the people on the ship...

The Blackwing Archmage Adventurers currently do not have a dedicated chef; cooking is done in shifts.

If we were to rank cooking skills into strong and weak categories...

Lox was undoubtedly the top leader, but unexpectedly, it was Little Yi who came next.

Her cooking skills are better than others.

She's just too young; she's fine as an assistant, but making her cook all by herself would make Lox feel guilty...

Yixiao can cook, but she can only eat; her cooking has absolutely nothing to do with being delicious.

In his words—as someone who often wanders the seas, without a stable place to stay, he naturally doesn't know how to cook for himself…

Life on the ship remained as peaceful as ever.

Aside from daily practice, there aren't many recreational activities in my free time.

It's nothing more than playing cards, mahjong, and various board games.

You'll get tired of it if you play it too much.

Anyway, Rocks is a bit cloying.

He misses his cell phone and computer...

Robin and Yixiao took a liking to Go, and the two played blindfold Go in a fierce battle, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.

However, Robin always won in the end, by a narrow margin of one or two points.

Rocks understood.

Robin undoubtedly let the game slide, deliberately leading to this situation.

People with high IQs are truly terrifying; in any case, Rocks didn't want to play Go with Robin.

They will be slaughtered, losing all their armor and weapons...

He couldn't even beat Robin in a game of Dou Dizhu, let alone in Go, a game that requires even more mental effort.

In this regard, Rocks would call Robin the strongest!

Yixiao, on the other hand, didn't care at all. Instead, he enjoyed playing chess with Robin even after losing.

My mindset is very stable.

Upon reading this, Rocks couldn't help but admire the other person's character...

certainly.

Yixiao's favorite game is mahjong, especially the kind with stakes.

He didn't have many other hobbies, but he was very interested in gambling...

Rocks used this opportunity to warn E. that minors should not participate in gambling.

Xiao Yi naturally agreed repeatedly.

Although he would occasionally join in playing cards or mahjong, it was just for fun, to pass the time during the boring life on the ship...

The weather was not hot and humid at noon that day.

The relaxation area on the deck.

Holding the playing cards, Nami, under the intense gaze of two pairs of eyes, tried to slip away with a flimsy excuse: "Hmm, judging by the time, we should be almost at Jaya Island. I'll go check the directions..."

His escape attempt failed, and Locus grabbed his collar: "Heh heh heh, you think you can just run away after losing? Not so easy."

"You lost, so the cleaning work for the next seven days is yours."

"No, you're cheating! You're all ganging up on me!"

Nami pouted and shouted loudly.

As if he had suffered some great injustice: "You guys definitely cheated! You used Observation Haki to peek at my cards!"

"What do you mean by ganging up to cheat you? You're the landlord, the emperor, and we're just ordinary people, commoners. What are we supposed to do if we don't team up and let you win?"

Rocks scoffed, "And peeking at your cards is even more ridiculous. Observation Haki doesn't have that effect. A smile will only get Illidan to tell him what cards he has."

"I do not believe!"

Nami still tried to play dumb: "You guys can peek at my cards!"

The Black Demon is so big, and she still has to clean it for seven days.

She said she couldn't manage to clean it all.

We have to renege!

"Ha ha……"

Rocks was determined not to give Nami a chance to cheat.

They even tried to cheat on him, the captain.

This little girl is getting bolder and bolder.

When her attempts to evade justice failed, Nami continued to grumble and complain, saying that Rocks was enslaving and oppressing her.

They harmed this kind-hearted, beautiful young girl...

However, no matter how eloquently she spoke, it was useless; a loss is a loss.

If you lose, you have to fulfill the bet...

Nami vowed never to play cards or fight the Celestial Dragons with Rocks and Kuina again.

The captain and first mate are in cahoots; she wouldn't have chosen to play cards with them if she weren't so bored!

I need to reflect on myself!

After that, the group stopped playing cards because they could see the island ahead.
