It seemed that it had just rained on the island, and the paths between the forests were a bit muddy. I walked on it and tried not to make the sound of my footsteps too loud, because the quiet and solemn atmosphere around me made everyone feel like they were walking on thin ice. The feeling is that if you step down too hard, it will cause unexpected accidents.
Luffy was still looking around. Although his footsteps were deliberately softer, the expression on his face looking around with excitement made it difficult for people to associate her with the word 'nervous'. Compared with her, the person next to him was Usopp and Chopper had a different look. The two guys who were usually too timid were following the team cautiously without even daring to breathe. All in all, this time the Straw Hat Pirates' The treasure hunt did not seem to have the same lively atmosphere as in the past.
Finally, Nami couldn't help but break the silence. Looking at the tall tower in front of her that was still looming in the mist and didn't seem to shorten the distance at all, the orange-haired navigator stopped dissatisfied: "What the hell is going on here?" What's the matterWhy do we still feel like we're going in circles after we've walked for so long? We're not lost, are we?"
"This conclusion is not very valid" Sanji shrugged and looked at Airei who was following him: "The guy with the green algae head is not here this time. Logically speaking, the chance of us getting lost is very small "
"Indeed" I, who was walking at the front, stopped and brushed off the water droplets on my cloak: "It's just because this island is so big, that's why I feel like I haven't moved forward after walking for so long. ¡±
"Is it like this?" Nami glanced at the gray sky distressedly: "If we keep going like this, I don't know how long it will take to get to that tower And it seems like it's going to rain. "
"It's really unpleasant" Franky adjusted his exaggerated hairstyle and pouted his lips in dissatisfaction: "Hey! Red-eyed boy, have you been here before? Why do you know this island so well?"
"What's the importance of this question?" I turned back and smiled strangely: "Besides, since you have already made your own preliminary judgment, why do you need to verify my words?"
"Well! This" Frankie pushed up his sunglasses and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it. I turned around indifferently: "So let's say goodbye now. I still hope you can take it. If you don't see something like that, the world might become more interesting because of you" Turning back and looking at the silent crowd, I slightly narrowed my red eyes strangely: "Before that. Don¡¯t be in a hurry to die¡¡±
"Wow" As my words gradually disappeared, my body turned into countless bats and flew into the sky. Looking at the direction I left, Luffy raised his head and looked at Franky: " HeyFranky"
"AhI know" Turning his head, Franky rarely got weird: "It's wrong to doubt that kid without permission, but it's true"
"Ah it looks like this" Sanji on the side exhaled a breath of smoke and looked at the sky: "Although I didn't want to say anything before, don't you think we are completely unclear about Casa's intentions until now? ?¡±
"Hmm Gu That's true" Usopp swallowed and carefully glanced in the direction I left: "Although he has been with us for a long time, but He has not let us know even a little bit about him, we have always been in the dark about his intentions and purposes, anddon't you think he has too many secrets to hide from us?"
"Are you trying to sayKasa can't be trusted?" Luffy slowly pressed the straw hat on his head: "IndeedKasa is a person we can't see clearlybut"
"Luffy!" reaching out to hold Luffy's shoulders, Nami shook her head: "Now we can't completely trust Kasabecausewe" biting her lip, Nami finally said Overdone: "Weare still afraid of death"
"I can't completely trust others Even my partners will have something to hide" Robin next to him retracted his gaze to the sky: "No one can predict what will happen on this island .But what Casa knows is what we don¡¯t know Under this situation We can no longer let others stay by our side as we usually do and on the ship .¡±
"But haven't we lived with Casa for such a long time?" Chopper next to him looked at the silent crowd with some disbelief: "Why does Franky doubt Casa? Why does everyone say this? ah!"
"Chopper" Luffy suddenly said: "Aren't you worried about Zoro?"
"Heythis" Chopper was speechless for a moment, but he still nodded: "Yes"
"Then hurry up and grab that thing" Luffy looked over.Looking at Airei behind Sanji: "AireiI have to trouble you to lead the way"
"YesI will" Biting her lip, Ailei nodded: "In fact, you can reach the God Tower by just walking along this road"
"Huh? But Airei-sandidn't you say" Sanji was surprised and looked at Airei who lowered his head and remained silent: "It's hardcould it be that"
"Sorry Sanji-san" Airei raised her head expressionlessly: "In fact, it's like this God has long been aware of your existence when you were approaching. In order to ensure that you belong to The Poseidon Scepter of this island will not be taken away by outsiders, so I will appear in front of you on purpose It is not that your partner intends to help me, but the power of the gods deprives his soul of the ability to resist .Although it is a pitybut you can no longer escape God's punishment"
As if in response to Airei's words, the surrounding forest began to stir uneasily. Countless footsteps came from all directions, and heavily armed figures holding spears surrounded Luffy and others from all directions in the forest, silent and obvious. The hostile gesture was obviously not specifically to welcome Luffy and others.
"Uh! Airei! You" Looking at Airei who had retreated to the middle of a large group of people who were all on guard, Sanji took a deep breath: "In other wordsso far you have It was always a lie right?"
"Huh~~~ This question doesn't need an answer" The expression hesitated for a moment, but soon turned into an expression of indifference. Sitting down on the golden chair, every move showed nobility: "Let me tell you what it means to be a saint on this island Foreign pirates The most noble thing on this island is the tower. The gods insideand next is the saint who can directly command the people on this island. All the words of the saint must be obeyed by the people on this island. Correspondingly, in order to eliminate external hidden dangers, it is also necessary The saint was the first one to dieyou should feel honored to be able to let me give up my life to deal with you"
"Hmm~~This number is too much" Looking at the dense crowds of people around him, Franky gritted his teeth: "Tch! It could actually be a trap for the enemy! In that case, there are no plans to land in search of treasures. It¡¯s all a lie! Damn it¡±
"Now it seems that we have no chance of winning" Looking calmly at the figures around him, Robin lowered his hands on his chest: "What's more, our swordsman lady is still in their hands"
"Hey Airei" Luffy raised his head and glanced at Airei: "Was everything you said before a lie?"
"Um" His brows shrank sharply, and the latter bit his lip harshly: "Shut up! You are just a group of dirty pirates on the sea! You still have to pretend to be thoughtful. The aloof dream! I will tell you now what will happen! You will be the sacrifices to the gods in the tower this year! Before that, you will be baptized by the strongest warrior on our island! Then bring Bear the humiliation of the loser until the end of hell!"
"I had no intention of not going to hell" Luffy glanced at the crowd surrounding him calmly: "But before that, can you return Zoro's body?"
"Hmphthis is impossible" Ailei sneered: "The ability of the soul fruit given by the gods will allow me to completely replace this swordsman's soul. From now on, I will be the new owner of this body. But you should also feel lucky for herbecause then her body will not be destroyed like yours"
"Huhit turns out that it's like this" Sanji on the other side lit up a cigarette again, raised his head and looked at Airei: "It turns out that what you experienced is not realit would be fine like this. I don¡¯t have to worry about you anymore because of that excessively tragic fate"
"Hmm~~~" Ai Lei's lips were deeply embedded in teeth marks: "What on earth are you talking about? Aren't you the ones who were betrayed? But this is just right for you pirates!"
"It doesn't matter what happens to that kind of thing" Nami shrugged indifferently: "Anyway, this way I don't have to worry about your affairs Then, what are you going to do with us now?"
"If I'm being imprisoned, I hope you can give me a cup of Coke" Frankie adjusted his hair: "Although I don't know how you plan to dedicate us to the perverts in that tower, but you should treat the prisoners preferentially. You can do it"
"Youyou" Looking at the people in front of her, Ai Lei was stunned for a moment: "Could it be"
"Ahwe have given up now" Luffy simply sat down on the ground: "But this is not the last"
"Huh whatever you say" Looking at the people in front of her, Ai Lei bit her lips and waved her hand fiercely: "Take them all down and lock them up!"
Looking at the people being taken down, Ai Lei, who was sitting on the chair, bit her lips tightly: Why! Why do you feel this way! What is this
on the other hand:
"I'm finally back" After falling from the sky, I stood in front of the tower door and gently brushed my slightly messy cloak: "The ruins of the Tower of Babel really make me feel nostalgic. "
"Crack~~" A flash of lightning flashed across the hazy sky, suddenly illuminating the broken top of the tower, as if it was a trace of a complete tower being cut off abruptly. I walked up to the top of the tower calmly. Inside the tower, I walked up the spiral staircase until I reached the top of the broken tower. I opened the ancient stone door and walked into the small room behind the door. A voice called out to me. After walking into the door and standing, there was a sudden sound in the room, and the source was the figure fixed to the wall by chains. The long white hair completely covered the face of that person, and only the chilling sound could be heard. Smile: "Long time no seeCasa"
"It's been four hundred years" I narrowed my eyes slightly and raised my lips: "Long time no seeKaropel"
