Chapter 418: Fate, I win this time!
"above?"
Violet, who was skeptical, subconsciously turned on her clairvoyance to penetrate the clouds and look up into the sky. The scene that came into her sight made her body tremble, as if she had seen something unbelievable.
"What is that? An island floating in the sky? The distance should be at least tens of thousands meters!"
"Sky Island, an island made up of island clouds floating in the sky. Its origin may be related to seastone molecules..."
After explaining it casually, Violet became even more interested and admired the islands and land floating in the air.
"We came here just for the island above?"
"Eh? Violet, you don't know this place. Four hundred years ago, this place was very famous. It was said to be the Golden City of Shandora, which was known as the Golden Country!"
After struggling to get Tsunade away, Hiyori approached and explained to her with a smile.
"Golden City... I almost forgot who you are. As expected, as pirates, you are full of longing for treasures and gold!"
Violet, who was muttering to herself, hadn't finished speaking when she was greeted by a burst of silver bell-like laughter.
"That's right. Pirates are certainly interested in gold, but our target is not these useless metals, but the historical texts stored on Shandora."
"Historical text? There is a historical text in the Golden Country? Wait, privately studying historical texts is a serious crime, and it might..."
Halfway through her words, under Hiyori's subtle gaze, Violet finally realized that this was the ship of the most powerful being on the ocean, and there was no way the rules of the World Government could possibly apply to it.
"But how do you know that there must be historical texts in the Golden Country? After all..."
"Shanks's information, after all, is a trainee crew member of One Piece, and he has personally experienced all of Roger's adventures. It is easy for him to know the location of a piece of historical text."
Huayue, who was covering herself with newspaper and falling asleep with the scent of ink, suddenly spoke. Violet's doubts were slightly relieved, but more doubts arose.
"Shanks, there have been guests on this ship..."
"If you keep asking, you'll start asking a hundred thousand whys. People always need some little secrets, right?"
"Okay, we are almost at our destination. The next step is to dock. Maybe the people on that island will know some news."
Even after Hiyori got up and left, Violet was still a little confused. She wondered what other unknown secrets were on this ship. She would feel uneasy if she didn't find out.
"Hey, Hiyori, big brother! Come and look, what a magnificent castle!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked into the distance and saw a magnificent castle appearing in front of them on the lonely island in the distance.
"Hey, hey, hey, big brother, big brother! Why are you so cold? Maybe there are a lot of treasures worth paying attention to in that castle!"
With her brows slightly furrowed, Huayue took the newspaper off her face expressionlessly and sighed deeply subconsciously.
"Your observation Haki is just for show, Yamato. Don't be slow in some areas. Listen carefully. How many voices are there in that castle?"
The excitement on his face turned into distress in an instant, and finally into anger.
"Why is there no sound? It's such a big castle. Damn it! I'll go and see for myself!"
Yamato soared into the sky with his moon steps and headed straight for the isolated island in the distance. Hiyori, who had expected this, roughly guessed what the so-called luxurious castle was.
Sure enough, after a while, an angry shout was heard.
"What's going on? Why is the castle enlarged with wooden boards? Isn't this a waste of other people's enthusiasm, asshole?"
boom!
With a strong push, the enlarged version of the fairy tale castle in front of him fell straight to the ground. Not feeling satisfied, Yamato stomped on it several more times.
"Hey, woman, what are you doing messing around in someone else's home!"
A strange sound came from under the water, followed by a splash and a burly man with a chestnut on his head. In the salvage net nearby, a small bell covered with seaweed exuded a faint golden color.
"Your house? Hey, Uncle Li Zi, your house is too stingy. Why did you hang the drawing board on your house? I thought it was a castle and rushed over excitedly!"
"What a nagging! What I do in my house is none of your business. But you, you made my house look like this, how are you going to compensate me?"
At this moment, a sound similar to that of an gorilla or a monkey came from the forest. Two huge figures suddenly jumped out of the forest, and one of them even beat his chest with both fists like an gorilla.
The other one was like a monkey, making a "squeaking" sound from its mouth. Many pirates armed with swords and various salvaging tools rushed over.
"Boss, whoever is trying to challenge our boss, I, the gorilla, will smash him into pieces!"
"We are the Yuanshan United Army. Even if you are a woman, we will beat you up if you dare to mess with our boss!"
"What? An orangutan and a monkey. What's the Saruyama Alliance? Are they famous?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the leader of the Orangutan Pirates, Orangutan, was immediately frightened.
"What do you mean? I can succeed Doflamingo and become the next Shichibukai. Be careful with your words!"
"Huh? Doflamingo, no no no, that guy is not as weak as you. Even a thousand of you combined can't beat him."
Pfft!
It felt as if a sharp knife pierced through his heart, and the gorilla knelt on the ground with a look of pain on his face.
"Too...too...too contemptuous. I can't bear it anymore. I must teach her a lesson!"
"Stop it, you two, woman. What has that ship with its guns pointed at this island got to do with you?"
The leader of the two shouted in a stern voice as a huge ship sailing across the fog in the distance slowly made its way to the shore.
"Tsk, I'm going to embarrass myself in front of my brother again. Never mind. I've already lost enough, one or two more won't be a big deal..."
"Hey, brother! There are people here, maybe they know where the Golden Country is!"
The winding ladder slid down from the deck. Huayue, with a lazy look on her face, glanced around and finally set her eyes on the small golden bell covered with seaweed in the fishing net around the chestnut man's waist.
"The Golden Country... You came here for the Golden Country? You believe that the Golden Country exists in this world!"
"Why do you use the word believe? The Golden Country actually exists. A friend who has been there told me about it."
At this moment, Mont Blanc Couliquet, the sturdy man with a chestnut head and a prismatic face, had tears rolling down his eyes and sat on the ground weakly.
"Fate, I win this time!"
