Chapter 191 Kind Uncle
()(This month’s recommendation votes seem to have reached a record high, but the gap between recommendation votes and clicks is really big, sweat.)
After the ship docked at the port, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. In the past, the time period when entering the port was the most likely place to be attacked. Various tolls and other messy charges were also one of the causes of disputes, but it seems that there is no such thing here.
Who collects it, and the popularity here is not very high. There are only three Luffy and his ships in the whole port.
Capa knew this very well. The large force of the Sea Palace was in Alabasta. Of course, no one came here, and even the local people who could run ran away. This is the Grand Route, not the Four Seas, so the world government
The majesty of fu is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Most people blindly believe that the navy can solve the massive attack of the Sea Palace. However, a few other people do not know this, and Luffy completely ignores it.
"Empty Island! Empty Island! Empty Island..."
Luffy shouted excitedly as he walked, as if he would be able to reach the Sky Island immediately after shouting like this. However, the pedestrians around him cast contemptuous looks at Luffy. Is this guy an idiot? Sky Island does exist, but
If you want to go, it is not an easy task, and
Moreover, Luffy's appearance is also obviously misleading. He looks like a harmless guy at first glance, so pedestrians dare to roll their eyes at Luffy. If Luffy looks ferocious, I'm afraid no one would dare to shout like this.
Look at him, let alone roll your eyes.
"Do you also want to go to Sky Island?"
Just as Luffy was walking excitedly on the road, a voice suddenly appeared in Luffy's ears.
"Who?"
"Nothing, just an ordinary passerby."
At this time, Luffy also saw the speaker, a middle-aged and wretched uncle who looked very sorry for the audience. He had messy and fluffy hair, but he used a scarf to cover some of it, and his whole body was dark.
, looks like a miner working in a black coal mine, and you can see that he is missing several teeth when he opens his mouth.
"Oh, it turns out he's an uncle. Yes, I really want to go to Sky Island."
"Another one to die?"
Luffy was confused when he heard this: "What does this mean?"
The middle-aged uncle said with regret: "It's nothing, I just feel sorry for you. You are a very good young man, why do you want to die there?"
"Seeking death? Is Sky Island dangerous?"
The middle-aged uncle's words attracted everyone's attention. Now not only Luffy, but also several other people also listened to what he said.
The middle-aged uncle said: "I don't know whether Sky Island is dangerous or not, but the road to Sky Island is very dangerous."
Luffy immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, I also know that it is said that only one person among a hundred people may be lucky enough to reach the sky island, but it doesn't matter, I am very confident in myself, and I believe
We can definitely reach Sky Island."
Seemingly disbelieving in Luffy's confidence, the middle-aged uncle looked suspicious: "Just you? If a brat like you can arrive safely, then no one can reach the Sky Island."
The probability of the island is said to be so, but those who can really get there are all strong people. Only they can overcome all the difficulties on the road and successfully reach the empty island. But if you want to get there by luck, among ten thousand people
There may not even be one in it.”
In response to the middle-aged uncle's teasing, Luffy was not angry, but responded with a confident smile. Several other people also relaxed. It turns out that you still have to rely on strength. This is better. It turned out that everyone thought it was luck.
Okay, luck is an elusive thing. No one can rely on it. Now that they know that their strength is enough, everyone is relaxed. With the strength of the Straw Hat Pirates, are they still afraid that they will not be able to reach the sky island?
"Uncle, do you know how many people have successfully reached Sky Island?"
Although he was confident in the strength of his companions, Chopper still asked carefully. The more you know, the greater the possibility of reaching the sky island, and there is no harm in knowing more.
"I didn't know about it before, and not many people seemed to know about it, but I still have a general understanding of what happened after the golden bell rang. Large numbers of pirates ventured to Sky Island, which once made this town
Gaya also prospered, with adventurers arriving from all over the Grand Line every day. At its peak, the town was ten times its current size!"
Noticing the meaning of the middle-aged uncle's words, Zhuo Luo asked, "Did something unexpected happen?"
"That's of course. Few of those who went there were able to come back. Note that none of them came back alive, not that they died."
"Does it make any difference?"
"The difference here is huge! It is said that most of those people died on the road, while some lucky or strong people reached the empty island."
"Really?"
Luffy was the first to jump up excitedly. It would be great if someone could reach it. This not only proves that he can reach the sky island, but also can bring back some information. The person who goes there for the first time is also the first to taste crabs.
People, it should be easier for the people behind with their experience, and the risks should be greatly reduced.
"This is not good news, kid. Just because those people can arrive doesn't mean they can come back."
"What's the meaning?"
Now everyone realized something was wrong. Can they go or not? Such a deceptive setting?
"Most of the first batch of people who went there were pirates, so after they arrived at Sky Island, they quickly revealed their true colors. However, they were also a bit too idiotic. It's terrible to have no common sense. Sky Island is thousands of meters away.
In the high altitude, that is thousands of meters! It is difficult for ordinary people to move, let alone breathe. Under such circumstances, they fall out with the indigenous people. They are just looking for death! As a result, they are killed by the indigenous people on the empty island.
No matter how hard it is, no one can escape."
…
At this moment, everyone was completely silent. If the people on Kongdao were hostile to them, then this trip might be in danger. Moreover, they did not know the current situation of Kongdao now. Seeing that everyone was shocked, the middle-aged uncle was very surprised.
He laughed with a sense of accomplishment.
"How did you know this information? According to you, no one should be able to come back. So how did these things come to be known?"
The middle-aged uncle looked at Sanji who asked the question with appreciative eyes: "That was just the first batch. Later, more and more people went, but no one could come back. This matter finally attracted the attention of the Navy, and several
The Vice Admiral of the Navy took a trip to figure out the situation, and then
Some information was disclosed, and later more things gradually became known to people. If the pirates do not have the strength to reward more than 100 million, it is best not to go. Only with that kind of strength can they reach the sky island safely.
, this is what some pirates who successfully returned later said."
"Thank you very much, uncle. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know these things."
"Nothing, these are just the most basic information. You will be able to know it after you have stayed on the island for a while. As for more detailed information, it is controlled by the navy and those who have successfully returned. You must know that the shellfish trade is completely
In their hands, it can be a huge profit that can make people rich in a short time. The navy has made a lot of money from this, and the pirates have also made a lot of money from smuggling."
Luffy asked confused: "Shellfish trade?"
"It's a specialty of Sky Island. I can't finish it in a short time, and it's very troublesome to explain. You can go to the town and have a look. Then you will know how profitable the shellfish trade is."
Luffy's eyes immediately turned into stars. Perhaps in his eyes, a lot of money and a lot of meat are equivalent: "Thank you so much. By the way, uncle, what's your name?"
