Arceus' Pirate Journey

Quinn was also worried about his captain's attitude, but compared to Perospero's nervousness, Quinn was more relaxed. The worst that could happen was that he would be beaten for a few days. He was used to it, but it always felt a bit sad to say it.

The treasure map was in Olga's hand, and she was directing the navigator and helmsman on the ship to correct the course.

There are not many talented navigators, but there are still many people who know a little about navigation. The reason why Olga is directing the route is because other people can't understand the words on it.

The island of Alkami disappeared more than a hundred years ago. The writing used on their island is very different from the modern one and is also a kind of ancient writing.

Although the regional cultures in the world of pirates have a unified language, each island also has its own dialects and local scripts, and each island has its own culture.

These characters also have some similarities. The pattern on the treasure map is a kind of ancient writing. Although there are some differences from Alchemy's writing, they are both hieroglyphics.

Relying on her understanding of the Alchemic language, Olga was able to translate the language almost accurately by guessing. There are several ways to write the word "卉", and there are similar situations in ancient languages.

If you can recognize half of the word, you can roughly guess the pronunciation and meaning of the word. Combined with the context, there will be differences, but the general direction will not be wrong.

The merchant before gave this thing as a gift, because they didn't know that kind of thing at all. Anything belonging to ancient times is what the world government does not want to be circulated.

The islands of Alchemy have disappeared, and there are more than one similar islands, so many of the texts have been lost, and only a few places specializing in historical research can decipher them.

However, whether or not these words can be translated does not affect the viewing of nautical charts. By comparing the positions of islands and ocean currents, one can always find the route. However, it will be more convenient and labor-saving if one can read.

"Why does this thing look so deceptive to me?"

Quinn held the map with a suspicious look. The reason he got on board was that he was a treasure hunting expert. How could he prove that he was an expert? By making trouble. If he couldn't find anything, then what kind of expert would he be?

"Tsk, uncle, you can't even read these words, how do you know it's fake? We're just trying our luck anyway, why don't we go and take a look."

"Little boy, you are still too young and don't know how dangerous this world is."

Among all the cadres, Arcier is the only one who will not have conflicts with Quinn. The two are very similar in many aspects of their personalities, such as narcissism and blind self-confidence. Of course, Arcier cannot beat Quinn, and his combat effectiveness is about equal to that of ordinary soldiers.

That's not quite right. It should be said that he is smaller than ordinary soldiers. He hasn't lost weight yet, and that body size doesn't give him any advantage in battle.

In addition to her status as a trainee who is the group's favorite, Olga gets along very well in the Beast Group.

"But what exactly is written on it?"

"I don't quite understand it either, but the general meaning seems to be... the great secret treasure of eternal life, that should be what it means."

"The great secret treasure of eternal life? This sounds even more like a lie."

Such rumors appear from time to time on the sea, such as the golden apple and the like, but those are all rumors. Assie's pure gold is one of the ways to achieve this goal, but no one knows whether pure gold has a limit.

The immortality surgery of the Operation Fruit is the most reliable method known so far, but only those with special abilities, or those who have experienced the immortality surgery, know the specific circumstances.

Many treasure maps have a strong gimmick, such as the treasure to buy the world or the secret of eternal life. Quinn has seen this kind of thing before.

But he was just talking, he didn't want to go back and be trained by Kaido right now.

The pirate ship flying the flag of the Hundred Beasts sails on the sea. In the waters of the New World, the pirate flag is the best pass. If the pirate group is strong enough, as long as they do not provoke other pirates in their territories or encounter some fools, they can basically live in peace.

This is the tacit understanding among the great pirates. If they fight each other every day, it will not be good for either the territory or themselves.

As long as the bottom line is not touched, many things can be negotiated, such as the banana talks between Kaido and Charlotte Linlin. In this way, everyone gets what they need. Those who only rely on fighting to solve problems are the lowest level pirates.

......

After sailing for a while, Arceus and his companions were approaching their destination. The sky was covered by clouds, but they were just clouds and there was no sign of rain.

If it were in an ordinary sea area, the appearance of a large number of clouds would almost mean the arrival of heavy rain, but this is a new world, and all common sense of navigation will be broken here.

At this time, Olga was calling Asier for help, because there were a few words that she really couldn't guess what they meant. She was only 8 years old before Alkemi disappeared, and she didn't learn all of Alkemi's characters, so she couldn't recognize some complicated words.

After they came out, Alkemi was gone, and Asie did not continue to teach her those things, but learned new characters with her.

With Asier's off-field assistance, she finally figured out the meaning of the last sentence.

"Midnight's wings cut through the clouds, and the moonlight guides the final direction. This should be what it means."

"Midnight? Moonlight? Are we going to wait here until midnight?"

"That should be it... There is a gap in this treasure map. Although it marks the location of the last island, it only directs people to the nearby sea area, and then there is this sentence."

"Then just wait. Now that we are here, we can wait for another night."

The ship was anchored and the people of Baishou waited for midnight to come. The thick clouds blocked the moonlight, but when midnight came, a crack appeared in the sky, and the moonlight spread in a straight line to the distance.

You can vaguely see that something seems to have flown through the clouds, and it was these things that caused such a gap to appear in the clouds.

"No matter how many times I see it, nature is truly bizarre." Olga sighed as she watched the strange sight.

However, Quinn's focus was different from Olga's. He always felt that the clouds were a little strange and did not seem to be normal clouds.

At this moment, a mournful cry was heard from the sky, and then a black shadow fell on the boat of Baishou.

Chapter 87: Millennium Dragon

The black shadow fell directly onto the deck, scaring the pirates nearby, but they quickly calmed down. There were two officers on the ship, a reserve officer and her partner, and Arceus. This lineup gave them confidence.

A few pirates bravely walked over, but before they could shout, they heard the roar of a wild beast and a pair of red eyes in the darkness revealed a dangerous look.

As the searchlight on the ship shone here, a strange creature appeared on the deck. Its back was green and its belly was white. Its overall structure was similar to that of a Western dragon, but it was covered with long hair. Its front claws were integrated with its wings, and its hind limbs were huge bird claws.

Its thick and long tail was spread across the deck, and its body length was roughly estimated to be eight or nine meters. However, it now looked very weak. A huge black arrow pierced its wings, and there was a similar thing on its body, which was what caused it to fall.

There is also an iron lock behind the black arrow, with a heavy object connected to the end of the iron lock. It seems that someone made it specifically to capture it.

"This thing is.... a Millennium Dragon?!"

Quinn's biological knowledge allowed him to quickly recognize the species of this thing, a special creature called Millennium Dragon. However, although it was called Millennium Dragon, its appearance was more like a combination of Archaeopteryx and a dinosaur.

They are called millennium dragons because they live long enough.

"Brother Quinn, what is a Millennium Dragon?"

"A legendary creature. It is said that its bones can grant people immortality, but it is false." The reason why he knew this was, of course, because MADS had studied this rumor before.

The research on bloodline factors involves all kinds of strange creatures. Although millennium dragons are rare, as long as they are species that exist in this world, the world government can always find some clues.

The ideal burial place and birthplace of a Millennium Dragon is Dragon Island hidden deep under the East China Sea. This island only surfaces once every thousand years, but not all Millennium Dragons can die here.

Millennium dragons that died or were born outside also exist. Through simple research and experiments, it can naturally be concluded that it is just false news.

Moreover, if this is true, then it is estimated that no Millennium Dragon will be seen in the outside world, and the people of the World Government will not allow such a creature to live outside.

No matter how much manpower and resources are spent, they will hunt this race to collect dragon bones and raise a small number of them in their own hands.

The so-called secret of immortality is just a rumor. If the dragon bones of a thousand-year-old dragon can really be used to make the elixir of life, then it would be unreasonable for the thousand-year-old dragon itself to age and die.

However, the facts have proved that there are still people who believe in this legend, otherwise they would not hunt down the Millennium Dragon.

As for how he came to this conclusion, the scars on the Millennium Dragon's body explained it all. Only humans or demihumans would use such a thing.

Quinn was doing scientific popularization work to the people around him, which was also a way of showing off his knowledge. However, when he talked about some experiments, the injured Millennium Dragon roared at him, causing more blood to flow from its already injured body.

"What is this guy doing? Is he trying to kill himself?"

"It's saying, you bastard, you actually dared to hurt its own kind. If you dare, come over and it will bite you to death. Well, that's probably what it means."

Yin Lisabet's intermittent voice rang in Quinn's ears. As long as she studied for a while, Yin Lisabet would be able to communicate almost as freely as humans.

Adult Millennium Dragons can understand human language, but they cannot speak human language, and humans cannot understand their roars.

However, it is well known that in the world of pirates, all land creatures other than humans and demi-humans speak the same language. This can be seen from Chopper's translation function. Whether it is a camel or a bird, even special creatures like the Kung Fu Manatee, he can understand them.

Chopper can understand the language of Blue and ordinary sea beasts in the Seven Water City, but he seems to be unable to understand the language of fish. Perhaps fish and other animals do not use the same language.

As for the sea kings, only the sea kings of each generation and the Observation Haki that can hear everything can understand what they say.

The language of this thousand-year-old dragon is the same as Yin Lishabeth's, so Yin Lishabeth acted as the translator.

Otherwise, Arceus would be the only one on the ship who could understand it.

"It misunderstood. What I meant was that I have studied the materials sent by others. It is the first living Millennium Dragon I have ever seen."

Quinn was not explaining to the Millennium Dragon, but to Sha Yinna. Sha Yinna hated the so-called experiments of the World Government the most. Not only the experiments that happened to her and Abel at that time, but also the experiments on other races.

She would not go near Quinn's laboratory, and Quinn would not mention such things in front of her, but this time he got a little too proud of himself and broke the tacit understanding between the two.

Recently, Sha Yinna has been with Arceus every night and seems to have gained a lot of power. She also has the idea of ​​developing "Quinn Bowling", which forces Quinn to be on guard.

"The great secret treasure of eternal life... It seems Olga translated it correctly. I think the direction of the treasure map is the island where this thousand-year-old dragon lives."

Quinn began to change the subject, but his method of change was very rigid and the effect was not obvious. Just when he had a headache, someone helped him and a cannonball directly hit the hull.

The waves splashed around Arceus, and the water soaked the deck next to Arceus. Seeing all this, Quinn's eyes almost glowed.

"Lord Arceus! How dare someone disturb your peace? That's unforgivable! I'm going to capture them right now!"

Quinn simply transformed into a tropical dragon and soared into the sky, rushing in the general direction, leaving the pirates on the ship looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Can this bastard act any more exaggerated..."

"Sha Yinna, you should go with him too. I don't think he is very reliable."

"Yes, Lord Holy Beast. I will deal with those who fired the cannons right away." As he said this, he flapped his wings and caught up with Quinn who had flown out earlier, while Arceus walked to the side of the Millennium Dragon.

Since these things have lived for a long time, they may know something about the past.

If the stone slab can appear in the stomach of a sea king, it is also possible that it will appear in the nest of a thousand-year-old dragon.

The struggle just now was the last bit of strength left by the Millennium Dragon. Now it was lying on the deck, extremely weak.

Chapter 88: Drops of Life

"The ship's doctor is here to take the contents out of its body."

At this point, there is more than one ship doctor in the Beasts Pirates. Although Quinn is still the person with the best medical skills in the group, there is only one Quinn, and the Beasts Pirates is not a small pirate group like the Straw Hat Pirates. He cannot handle it all by himself.

It is difficult to find a famous doctor, but it is easy to find some ordinary doctors. Their medical skills do not need to be too advanced, and it is enough to be able to deal with simple colds, fevers, food poisoning and trauma, which are the most common situations on the ship.

"This, Lord Holy Beast, if you pull it out...it might die immediately."

If you are pierced by a sharp weapon, you cannot just pull it out. Not to mention these pirates, even those who have watched a few episodes of TV dramas know this.

The black arrow that pierced its body was as thick as an arm and had a huge barb on it. The wound had been torn when the Millennium Dragon struggled in the air, and the wound was already bleeding.

Although the amount of bleeding is decreasing now, that is because the blood production rate of its organs can no longer keep up with the bleeding rate.

"I know. You don't have to worry about anything else. Just pull the thing out and prepare to sew up the wound."

"Yes, I understand."

He was forced to do something he was not prepared for. He had seen veterinarians forced to treat human injuries before, but he was the first doctor who treated human injuries to be forced to treat the Millennium Dragon.

Then a bigger problem arose: they couldn't cut off the black arrow.

There was a huge barb on the arrowhead, and a thick iron chain was connected to the tail. If you wanted to pull it out, you had to cut it off, but they didn't know what the black arrow was made of, and they couldn't leave any trace at all.

In the end, it was the water blade on Yin Lisabai's tail that cut off the black arrow, and then Olga acted as an anesthesiologist.

Zoroark's illusion ability is not just an ordinary fantasy. It has both the entity to deceive the camera's capture and the perception of living things. She gave the Millennium Dragon a false illusion in which she would not feel pain.

Then the two pirates worked together to pull out the black arrow.

The wound was very hideous, and broken internal organs and bone fragments could be seen. Even though he was not a veterinarian, he had sentenced this thousand-year-old dragon to death.

Then a ball of water flew out of Arceus' body and hit the Millennium Dragon.

Then a wave of water appeared on the deck, and the energy in the water droplets poured into the body of the Millennium Dragon. Not only the Millennium Dragon, but also the small wounds on the pirates within the range were directly healed under the influence of this ripple.

Life Drop, a new skill after obtaining the Drop Slate.

Water-related skills, one of the few skills that can restore vitality to other friendly units, restore vitality, and enhance the body's self-healing ability. However, this ability is useless for broken limbs, unless the species already has this ability.

The hole left by the black arrow is too big, so it still needs to be sutured.

In the eyes of the ship's doctor, the necrotic parts of the Millennium Dragon's body seemed to have regained their vitality.

"Divine power..."

They were shocked by the strange power that Babanuki had acquired, but strange power was a kind of ability similar to a form of cultivation, and it could be understood that Babanuki had been strengthened.

The power that pulled the thousand-year-old dragon back from the brink of death was even more powerful, especially for someone like him who had some basic medical skills.

The powerful healing power almost means that they have a slighter chance of survival in the future.

"Don't be dazed, sew up its wound quickly!" Creating such a realistic illusion is also more exhausting for Olga, as it not only blocks vision, but also pain.

Looking at the stunned ship's doctor, she urged him, and he finally reacted and began to sew up the wound in a hurry.

The Millennium Dragon does not have hard scales, which is good news. Otherwise, the needles and thread prepared for humans in his medical kit may not be useful. Now all he needs to do is shave off the excess hair and he can suture the wound.

However, this task was done by the chef on the ship, because he was too slow in shaving and the hair of the Millennium Dragon was relatively tough, so he was very clumsy in shaving and was not as flexible as the chef on the ship.
