"There is a merchant ship ahead, right in front of us." The thin man looked at Jack nervously, "There are two people on the deck of the merchant ship, one of them seems to be a survivor of O'Hara, 'Devil's Child' Nico Robin."
"Nicole Robin?" Jack's eyes widened slightly. "I heard that she can decipher ancient texts. Is that true?"
"It should be possible. After all, he is the last survivor of O'Hara." Because of the thin man's call, other people on the boat came out one after another and stood behind Jack. It was one of them who answered Jack's question.
"That's perfect. Brother Kaido has a historical text signpost stone tablet. We can capture her and decipher it." Jack crossed his arms and said, "Drive at full speed and catch up with the ship before it runs away."
"Why not just forget it, Jack?" Someone behind him advised, "I remember the newspaper a few days ago said it was possible that the 'Devil's Son' killed Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. We are considering whether to increase his bounty. We still have to carry out Lord Kaido's mission, so we can't let anything else happen!"
"Baga, what are you talking about?" Jack opened his eyes wide and glared at the person who spoke. The man in a cloak behind him was sweating and trembling because of his stare.
"Who do you think I am?" Jack roared, "I am 'Drought' Jack with a billion bounty on him."
"Pull the boat over to me!"
"Hi!"
Two minutes later, the huge ship disappeared in the surge of thunder.
Li Mo casually weighed the devil fruit in his hand twice, and for the first time he understood what an unexpected surprise meant.
"Is this person the 'Drought' Jack that I know?" Robin looked at Li Mo with a complicated expression, a little bit unbelievable.
Although Li Mo and his team have defeated two natural devil fruit users, there is also a Thunder Fruit that is known to be invincible, and the battle scenes are very exaggerated.
However, the feeling of seeing a big shot he knew die in front of him was completely different from before. This was a pirate with a bounty of 1 billion berries, which was more than ten times that of Crocodile.
"It's the 'drought' you know." Li Mo smiled and nodded.
"I didn't expect such a big shot to show up in a place like this." Robin exclaimed.
"Indeed." Li Mo agreed casually.
He really didn't expect that in the first half of the Grand Line known as 'Paradise', he would actually encounter one of Kaido's Three Calamities.
He also hurriedly sent himself a devil fruit.
Li Mo, who had known for a long time that Jack was a fishman, would never let him escape by diving like in the anime. Although it would be useless even if Jack dived, as he was not a devil fruit user and was not afraid of water at all.
"What a nice guy!" Li Mo took out the red gourd with a look of emotion and let it swallow this rare ancient species in the animal system.
In the following period of time, we didn't encounter any big shots like Jack, but pirates still came in waves.
There are so many pirates in this place called Grand Line!
Perhaps it cannot be said that there are too many pirates in the Grand Line, but rather that there are simply too many pirates in this world.
Just talking about the recent period, at most, Li Mo and his crew encountered three different groups of pirates who wanted to rob them in one day.
However, the result is obvious. The pirates in the first half of the Grand Line are obviously not that strong, and most of them can't even get past Robin.
Even if they meet powerful pirates who have the chance to become supernovas, Busujima Kiba and Esdeath will let them know how dangerous the world is.
Of course, the attack by so many pirates is not without benefits. Most of the pirates who can survive in the Grand Line are people with special abilities.
Li Mo has harvested a lot of devil fruits during this period.
During the day, except for occasionally going out to extract the devil fruit, Li Mo spent most of his time concentrating on absorbing the power of the Thunder Fruit, and by the way studying the Observation Haki that Robin had developed.
After all, if there hadn't been the request for the devil fruits that Red Gourd had suddenly collected, wouldn't his biggest goal in coming to the One Piece world be the Thunder Fruit, an object condensed by the rules of lightning and a unique domineering training system?
In addition to cooperating with Li Mo's experiment, Robin is also working hard to practice Armament Haki.
However, this time she was not here for the news about the historical text that Li Mo promised to give her. After all, she had already planned to stay on Li Mo's ship.
As long as she continued sailing with Li Mo and the others, she believed that she would be able to read most of the historical texts that Li Mo knew.
So she is now practicing for herself, in order to stop being a burden. This is what she has already made up her mind about on Sky Island.
Esdeath has not been very happy these days. Although there are many attacking pirates, their strength is very average. She has not encountered any strong ones like Crocodile and Enel before.
However, she did learn about the New World and the countless powerful people there from an unknown pirate. She immediately became interested and wanted to go over and fight with the powerful people.
In order to prevent the possibility of not reaching the new world within a month, she even caught an extremely fast sea king from somewhere and used it to pull Li Mo and his merchant ship across the sea.
However, Li Mo didn't know whether he would have enough time to go to the new world in the remaining time, because when there were still five days before the red gourd would take him back, Li Mo suddenly felt that the fusion of the magic power in his body and the law of thunder in the thunder fruit had reached a critical value.
A feeling of impending breakthrough instantly enveloped his heart.
His original plan was to wait until he returned to his original world before making a breakthrough, but now it was no longer his choice. If he didn't break through now, he would probably have to wait a long time before he could make a breakthrough again.
Li Mo had this hunch.
Therefore, after he finished explaining things to Robin and the others, he set up a magic circle with the red gourd as the center of the circle and began his breakthrough.
There are still five days left, so it will definitely be in time.
Chapter 248 Celestial Dragons
Next to the Navy Headquarters in Marinford, there is the world's largest mangrove tree, the "Archiman mangrove", and the Sabaody Archipelago was formed on its roots that are always exposed above the water.
That's right, it only took one month, relying on the extremely high sailing speed provided by the Sea King that Esdeath caught, the four of them took a merchant ship from Alabasta to the island known as the 'Island of Restart'.
That’s right, the route of Li Mo and his group deviates somewhat from that of the protagonist group in the original novel, with the Seven Water City and the Horror Bark missing.
The reason they didn't go to the Seven Water Capital was because Li Mo and his group had no need to change ships. This merchant ship was enough for them.
After all, just like Robin said that day, they didn't need a sturdy ship to withstand all kinds of extreme weather.
And Robin, who was at the helm, had apparently learned from the historical text of Alabasta the relationship between the Seven Water Cities and the ancient weapon Pluto, although she knew the specific information and knew that Pluto was not buried here.
But there was no need to change ships, so Robin subconsciously stayed away from the place where Pluto was created.
As for the terrifying three-masted sailboat, it was purely bad luck that I didn't see it. After all, if I hadn't picked up the wine bottle on the sea, that place would have been very remote and difficult to find.
If Li Mo had not been in seclusion at that time, he might have searched the surroundings. After all, there were quite a few Devil Fruit users there.
Especially Absalo, the user of the transparent fruit, if Li Mo could meet him, he would crush him to ashes.
However, he had already started preparing for his retreat at that time, so naturally he did not have the leisure time. Esdeath, who did not know any news about Moria, obviously would not stay on her own initiative. She enthusiastically ran towards the direction of the new world that was said to have countless powerful people.
But there is no rush. Li Mo will come to the One Piece world again anyway, and the other party won’t have such good luck next time.
"I don't know when Qi Jun will be able to come out?" Walking on the streets of the Sabaody Archipelago, Dudao Yazi looked a little worried.
Dudao Yazi is a little anxious now, as there are only two days left before the one-month period that Li Mo set at the beginning.
Today is also the third day of Li Mo's retreat. The three of them agreed that one of them would guard outside the secret room where Li Mo was in retreat for a whole day. Today it was Robin's turn to guard outside.
He hasn't come out for three days, and Dudao Yazi's worry about Li Mo has become more and more serious.
And she remembered very clearly that Li Mo had told her before they came that if they had not returned to the original world after a month, they might encounter certain dangers.
It didn't matter what kind of danger she encountered, but it would most likely lead to the failure of Li Mo's breakthrough, which would make Dudao Yazi very uncomfortable, especially when she couldn't help much.
But there was no point in being anxious, the two of them could only wait for Li Mo to come out.
In this situation, the two of them would be waiting on the boat anyway, so they might as well go out and relax.
Anyway, both of them left their aura on the boat. Once outsiders got on board, they would be able to detect them immediately and quickly return to the boat. Anyway, they just planned to stroll around the ship.
As for Robin...
After a month of getting along, Busujima Yako had already accepted the existence of Robin as a partner, and was quite confident in Robin's care.
Of course, the most crucial thing is that Robin’s strength is obviously not enough to break Li Mo’s magic circle.
And this is also the reason why she and Esdeath dared to come out and hang out. The defensive formation that Li Mo set up before his retreat was very effective. Dudao Yazi felt that even if she and Sister Esdeath joined forces, they would probably not be able to break the formation.
So they are still very reassured about Li Mo's safety.
"I don't know, but there is nothing we can do. We can only wait for Ana to come out by himself." Esdeath also shook her head, and a rare hint of worry appeared in her eyes.
"But it shouldn't be a big problem. Since Qi Jun dared to choose to break through in this world, he must be confident." Busujima Yako forced herself to comfort Esdeath, but from her tone, it was unclear whether she was comforting Esdeath or herself.
Although the Chabaoti Archipelago has a unique bubble culture due to its unique climate.
Bubble cars, bubble Ferris wheels, and houses built on bubbles, these things that are rarely seen in the past, are everywhere in the Chabaobab Archipelago, and everywhere is filled with strange and beautiful scenery.
However, because of their worries, Esdeath and Busujima Kiyoshi had obviously no intention of appreciating the beautiful scenery. After casually wandering around, they prepared to return to the boat.
Li Mo has been in seclusion until now. The two of them have no enthusiasm for anything. Even Esdeath, who usually would not be happy if she didn't fight with a strong man for a day, now has no intention of causing trouble. After relaxing, she leaves decisively.
But at this moment, the two found that the densely packed people in front of them knelt down one after another.
"What's going on?" Busujima Yazi looked up and looked ahead.
The street ahead was not far away, and to Esdeath, it was so close that it seemed as if it was happening right in front of her.
A fat man wearing a bubble mask, dressed like an astronaut and holding a whip appeared at the end of the road ahead, with even a little snot hanging from his nose.
Under him sat a human with a collar around his neck, ragged clothes and blood all over his body, crawling slowly and with difficulty.
The world's nobles - the Celestial Dragons.
The descendants of the 'Creator' who founded the World Government, they are the ethnic group with the highest power in the world. Even the Five Elders who currently run the World Government are members of the Celestial Dragons.
It could be seen that the fat and ugly Tianlong man was very dissatisfied with his speed, and he kept hitting him with the whip with barbs in his hand.
Even so, the man didn't dare to let out even a scream, for fear of angering the Celestial Dragon on his body.
Such a cruel scene happened on the street, but no one dared to step forward to stop it. The navy who were maintaining order around just watched what was happening from a distance and had no intention of intervening.
"The Navy doesn't care about this kind of thing?" Busujima Yako was a little confused.
From what she had seen and heard over the past month, she had thought that although there were a few bad elements in the navy of this world, most of them were just. She had not expected that they would turn a blind eye to such things.
However, this matter had nothing to do with them, and she was too lazy to care about the shortcomings of the ruler of this world. She just walked towards the merchant ship with Esdeath.
Chapter 249 Death
"By the way, they should know that there will be Celestial Dragons in the Sabaody Archipelago..." Robin, who was sitting outside the secret room where Li Mo was in seclusion on the merchant ship, suddenly thought of it.
After all, after these few days of contact, it seems that there are some problems with the common sense of the two.
But she soon felt relieved. After all, even if she didn't know other things, she should know the Celestial Dragons. How could there be anyone in this world who didn't know about the Celestial Dragons?
She continued to read the book in her hand.
But it is obvious that Gigolo Busujima and Esdeath, who came from another world, have no idea what the so-called Celestial Dragons are.
After all, before the feeling of breakthrough came, Li Mo had never thought that he could reach the Sabaody Archipelago within this month.
According to his plan, they should be staying on the Thriller Bark now, getting the devil fruit there, and then hanging around nearby before preparing to return.
And the most important thing is, if Li Mo had not gone into seclusion for the breakthrough, it would not be a big deal even if they offended the Tianlong people. The two of them did not want to know about such things, so Li Mo naturally would not bring it up on his own initiative.
If the two knew about the Celestial Dragons in advance, they certainly would not be as awed as most people in this world. But they probably would not stand here and watch so carelessly at such a critical juncture when Li Mo was in seclusion.
And now, the Tianlong man sitting on the scarred man obviously noticed the two people who were going away, and he immediately became furious.
"What's going on? Why didn't the two untouchables over there kneel down when they saw me? Bastards!" The Tianlong pointed at the two people in the distance, "Catch those two untouchables immediately. I want to torture them severely."
"Yes, Saint Charlos, arrest them and bring them to justice right now!"
Several black-clad servants following behind Charlos immediately rushed towards Dujima Yazi and Esdeath who were not far away with nimble movements.
As CP0s who specialize in serving the Celestial Dragons, in addition to their normal bodyguard work, it is also their mission to serve the Celestial Dragons well.
"Are they talking about us?" Dudao Yazi, who was about to return to the merchant ship, apparently noticed the noise in the distance and turned his head to look back.
When he turned his head, Charlos, who had just been looking at the backs of the two people, instantly noticed their stunning beauty and immediately issued new orders.
"Wait, you guys must not kill her. She's so beautiful, just perfect to be my seventh and eighth wife."
"Yes, Saint Charlos!" Several men in black who were standing behind had already taken out the handcuffs and explosive collars they carried with them.
"Really?" Looking at the ugly Celestial Dragon who looked like a fat pig not far away, Esdeath showed a cold smile, "I just happen to be in a bad mood right now, and there are toys that are delivered to my door to help me relax. It's really a pleasant surprise!"
Although it was called a surprise, the cold light in Esdeath's eyes was almost as thick as actual ice crystals.
"General Binglan!"
Dozens of ice-blue cavalrymen who seemed to be condensed from ten thousand years of ice instantly gathered in front of Esdeath, holding their spears high, and rushed forward at a terrifying speed.
Dozens of cavalrymen actually ran with the momentum of thousands of troops!
"Asshole, is he a devil fruit user?"
"You dare to fight back!"
"Don't even think about hurting the Celestial Dragon Master."
The black-clad men, who had never seen anyone dare to fight back against the Celestial Dragons in all these years, shouted in anger and tried their best to stop the charging Frost Knights.
