Arceus' Pirate Journey

When the Origin passed by Jack, it picked him up, but the two Shandians found something wrong. The direction they were heading was the location of the tribal gathering place.

"Let's go! Go back to the tribe!"

There are not only sea clouds on the sky island, but also island clouds. Ships cannot sail on the island clouds, but their homemade jet devices allow them to glide on the island clouds.

Island clouds have the same properties as land and can allow plants to grow, but there are no seeds in the island clouds. Therefore, the seeds of plants growing here are all carried on ships from Qinghai and those washed up on Gaya Island.

......

"Chief! Chief! There are ships from Qinghai coming, and they are heading towards us!"

Deep in the island clouds, pointed-roof tents are distributed in an orderly manner, with totem poles in the middle. Many of the totem poles have flames burning on them to serve as lighting tools.

Although this place used to be part of Gaya Island, it has lived in isolation for nearly four hundred years, and the Shandia people think every day about how to take back their homeland, a war that has lasted for hundreds of years.

Both the people of Sky Island and Shandia suffered huge casualties for this. In the past few years, Gan Fowle became the manager of Sky Island.

His policy of peaceful coexistence eased their conflict somewhat, but it still did not fundamentally solve the problem. Hundreds of years of blood feud were not so easy to resolve.

A slightly older man wearing a head covering made of animal skin came out upon hearing the noise.

"Kodor, Shatila, don't panic. What happened?"

"Chief, it's a big ship from Qinghai. We were fishing there, and then..."

They briefly explained what had happened and then waited for the chief's arrangements.

"All adult warriors, get ready. Kodor, you two take people to the beach to see where those people are going."

......

The Shandians underestimated the speed of the Origin, and it had docked next to the Island Cloud not long ago.

After leaving some people to guard the ship, the others went down. The Sky Island jungle at night was full of mystery, but no one in the Beasts Pirates felt scared.

Yamato even ran in the front. Although this was unreasonable, Arceus didn't think that any creature could hurt the other party under his nose.

"Godfather, is this what we are looking for?"

"It's not far ahead."

"Is that some treasure?"

"It is of no use to anyone else, but it is a treasure that belongs to me alone, but I lost it many years ago."

"So father is often not at home because he is helping stepfather find things?"

"I think...right."

He originally wanted to say yes, but according to Kaido's character, who knows what he might do on the way out. According to the time reverse calculation, Yamato was created by him at that time, so he was not very sure.

In fact, at this distance he can already guide the stone slab out directly. As long as it is not blocked by obstacles like the evil stone slab in the stomach of the sea king before, he can directly guide the stone slab back.

But he wanted to see the place where the Lunarians had hidden his stone slab, so he walked forward according to his perception.

"Then as long as we get the things back, won't our foster father, father, and sister Sha Yinna be able to relax a lot?"

"Almost, but it will take a long time."

"I understand. I will help my godfather get everything back!"

"You're still too young, Yamato, but you've been a lot of help."

"Really? Why didn't I know?"

Yamato didn't understand how much her luck helped, but she was tripped by a tree root under her feet without paying attention, and the soft island cloud did not hurt her.

Jigglypuff behind him looked rather distressed, but Yamato was already used to bumps and bruises, so he rolled over and got up by himself, and saw a brand new path in front of him, and the secluded village of Shandia had appeared in front of them.

Kodor did bring people to search the situation before, but the problem was that the scope of Sky Island was circular, unlike Wano Country where there were only a few entrance paths, so they were perfectly staggered.

Seeing the strangers appearing on the outskirts of the village, the prepared warriors raised their weapons one after another. Even the old and weak were no exception. This was the only choice for such a tribe when everyone was mobilized to fight.

The members of the Hundred Beasts were never afraid of fighting. Seeing this, they walked to the front, picked up their weapons and confronted each other. With just one order, they would start their fight without hesitation.

"Outsiders, what are you doing here?"

The chief didn't know the opponent's strength, but he was ready to fight.

"Don't worry, I'm just here to get my stuff. It's right here."

Chapter 197: Four Hundred Years of Promise

"There's nothing for you here, outsider..."

Seeing Arceus of an unknown race making a sound, the chief was shocked, but he still calmed down and communicated with the other party.

Among all the chiefs, he was the most peace-loving one and he did not want to see his people bleed and sacrifice in meaningless battles.

They had sacrificed too much to recapture Arpaiado.

"It's not up to you to decide whether it exists or not. I can already feel its presence."

A gust of wind blew through here, and the outer cover of the tent whistled in the wind.

The Shandians lived in simple leather tents. They did not gain much advantage in the battle with the Sky Islanders, so they mainly fought in a guerrilla manner.

The tribes also move their living places regularly, so setting up tents is more suitable for their lifestyle.

A huge vine grew where they lived, and a huge piece of gold floated down from above.

"Melted into gold? That's a good way to hide it."

He could feel that his stone tablet was inside the gold. It seemed that the people of Lunalia did this because they were afraid of being discovered.

However, it seems that this stone slab was lost hundreds of years ago, and Sha Yinna and Jin only preserved some records through word of mouth.

When seeing the piece of gold being taken away by Arceus, the expression of the Chief of Shandia changed slightly.

"Outsider, put the things down, they don't belong to you."

The chief of Shandia took up his weapons. The gold was related to a promise. They had broken their promise once and could not break it a second time.

However, this sentence was like a reverse scale to Arceus. Any creature that coveted his stone slab would be committing an unforgivable sin, so an extremely ferocious aura emanated from his body.

That was his pressure, dominated by the evil-faced slate. An aura of fear swept across the entire village of Shandia. Men, women, young and old, were all pinned to the ground by this pressure.

"Lord Arceus... is angry..."

"Lord Arceus, let's get rid of these guys, and don't continue to be angry about this."

This pressure was not directed at them, but they still felt the pressure. Jack and Maria even found it difficult to breathe. Even Yamato felt that Arceus became a little strange at this moment.

"No, I'll give you one last chance. Tell me what's going on, or destruction will be your only fate."

Walking up to the chief, Arceus gave his ultimatum.

If it was the original Arceus, the phrase "it doesn't belong to you" would be the biggest taboo, but the current Arceus is willing to give him a chance to explain.

"That is... the agreement between our ancestors... We will protect it for others. Unless you kill all of us, you can't take it away!"

In the end, he actually stood up despite the fear. Although Arceus had removed the pressure from him, it was still a remarkable thing that he could stand up.

"You have a good reason, but what you are keeping originally belongs to me. The people who hid it here are my people. Now that I have awakened, I have come to take back what is mine. Do you understand?"

"How do you prove it?"

"I would like to advise you that keeping your promise is an excellent quality, but overestimating your own abilities is foolish."

Arceus did not say anything, but proved everything with facts and actions. Under the influence of his power, the gold block began to melt, and soon the true appearance of the stone slab was revealed.

Driven by his power, the stone slab glowed with brilliant light and finally merged into his body.

"Do you believe it now? Only I can wield its power. Your promise has been fulfilled, and it has been fulfilled well."

Things related to the slate tend to make him act impulsively, so he tends to be more irritable than usual, but when he calms down he is not unreasonable.

The ones who reached an agreement with these Shandians must have been Jin and Shayinna's ancestors, and they have been fulfilling their promise for hundreds of years.

"Put down your guns, these people are not enemies, ship's doctor, go and give them some physical checks."

By the way, he felt the properties of the stone slab again, and then there was some strange emotion in his eyes when he looked at Yamato.

......

Soon, the misunderstanding was explained. Arceus and his men were not plunderers, but people who came to take back their things. His behavior just now was enough to prove that those things belonged to him.

Although it has a strange appearance, the Shandia people have more respect for it. In their beliefs, different animals represent gods.

They had also acted impulsively before, but the customs of this relatively primitive tribe were relatively simple. After finding out the reason, they did not dwell on the previous events, but began to celebrate, because they finally fulfilled one of their ancestors' promises.

That was more than four hundred years ago, when the legendary figure of Shandia, the great warrior Kalgara, was still a young man.

Their ancestors had come into contact with the original Lunarians, who helped them cure diseases, and they also took on the task of keeping the stone slabs.

They were not greedy usurpers but trustworthy custodians, which meant that Arceus' previous actions had gone too far.

So he asked his men to move all the supplies on the ship back and held a new banquet here. As for Kodor and his men who had taken the wrong road, they just happened to catch up with this banquet.

They were dragged into the bonfire party by their tribesmen without even understanding what was going on.

"Godfather, you were so scary just now..."

"Did it scare you?"

"No, but a godfather like that..."

"Don't think too much. I get angry sometimes. Just go and have fun. If you don't want me to get angry, just behave yourself in the future."

She agreed readily now, but she was not sure whether she could remember it in the future.

The young Shandians were performing their own dance around the bonfire, and the members of the Beasts Pirates were pulled in as well, while the clan leader was speaking in front of the young people.

"We have fulfilled one of our ancestors' promises! Hundreds of years have passed, and the things we kept have been returned to their original owners! This is a good momentum, and the agreement between the great warriors Calgara and Rolando will surely be fulfilled!

We will definitely take back Arpaiado! The sound of the golden bell will resound through the sky!"

"Oh!"

However, a strange voice was heard among the responses.

"Grandpa, what is the golden bell?"

Seeing the questions raised by Yamato and other children, the chieftain was not unhappy. Instead, he told the story of the Shandia people again, a story that had been passed down orally for hundreds of years...

Chapter 198: Yamato's Thought Lesson, Plan for Sky Island

Nearly four hundred years ago, when Gaya Island was still intact, Shandora had not come to Sky Island.

At that time, the North Sea navigator Wenbrand Rolando accidentally came to Gaya Island to avoid heavy rain and saved the Sandia tribe who were attacked by "tree fever", making a great contribution to Gaya Island.

He also formed a deep friendship with the great warrior of the time, Kalgara.

However, because of the cutting down of trees that the Shandians believed held the souls of their ancestors, conflicts arose between them. When Kalgara learned that those trees were the cause of their illness, it was already too late.

Rolando's ship has already put out to sea.

Kalgara made a vow to ring the golden bell every day to use the sound of the bell to guide Rolando.

The Shandians also cast a special commemorative statue for Rolando.

"Because of the ocean currents, we came to Sky Island. The people of Sky Island also took away our land. For hundreds of years, we still haven't been able to take back our land, and we still haven't been able to ring the Golden Bell again..."

The chief was still talking about the history of the people of Shandia, but Yamato's thoughts were no longer here.

"Rolando...Rolando...I seem to have heard this name somewhere...Where exactly is it..."

"It's a fairy tale from the North Sea, about the great liar Rolando. Mom used to read the story to us."

Maria reminded Yamato that the fairy-tale Beasts Pirates, which were well-known in the North Sea, could certainly be found, and they, the children, had also heard similar stories.

But it was different when these words reached the chief's ears.

"Big liar? How could Rolando be a big liar?"

And when he listened to Maria and Yamato's brief story of Qinghai, tears welled up in his eyes.

"Is it really so...? Because of our incompetence, our benefactor has suffered such a great injustice..."

...

"Godfather, why don't we help them..."

"Why do you do that?"
