The sea surface under Caruso's hull suddenly stirred up waves of water, and Caruso also slowly rose into the air.
"It's flying, it's flying!"
"It's a bit scary..."
"Have you really made such a big ship fly?"
After ascending about two hundred meters, Caroso's fat tail began to catch the wind again, and he used [Wind Propulsion].
This move is the driving force for Caruso to move forward in the sky. Without this move, Caruso would not be able to move forward in the air, and would just float in the air.
【Brother, do you want to continue to rise? 】
"No need, just get here. Aren't you scared?"
Kazan held Caroso's dragon's head with one hand and stretched out his head to look at the sea below, feeling very scared in his heart.
I don't know what terrible things are hidden in the deep blue sea. Even though Kazan has extremely powerful strength, he also has awe of this sea.
【Don't be afraid, my brothers and sisters will protect me anyway.】
The innocent and tender voice revealed a full sense of trust, which made all the members of the monster family feel moved.
Caruso trusted them without reservation.
It doesn't even consider whether they really have enough ability to protect this behemoth in various emergencies.
For example, 'If the blast shell at the bottom of Caruso's boat suddenly fails at this moment, Caruso will fall downward from an altitude of 200 meters.'
They may try their best, but they may not be able to keep Caruso intact.
but.
Caruso's trust is not in question either.
Because regardless of whether they have the ability or not, they will definitely do their best to protect it.
"Caruso, go down and see if you can control the landing speed."
【Okay~】
It took about two minutes for Caruso to gradually reduce the blowout shells on the bottom of the boat, and finally reached the sea calmly and safely.
Kazan is glad that Caruso is a normal child.
If it was a tiger kid like Bellamy and Akin, or a character like him and Sugar who had intermittent convulsions, then everyone would be guilty.
Since there are no conditions in the nearby sea area for them to conduct a [land walking] function test, this test will be postponed for the time being.
Anyway, everyone is very confident. After all, so many functions have been successful, and it is impossible for this one to have problems alone.
【Deep Sea Dive】
Within the ‘dragon scales’ on Caroso’s body, shells are squeezing bubbles out.
Bubbles glowing with iridescence jumped out from the gap between the dragon scales and the ship's hull, and then merged with the surrounding bubbles to form a larger bubble.
In about a minute, all the small bubbles merged and turned into one super large bubble.
Caruso was just wrapped in this big bubble, and the air inside and outside could no longer circulate.
Inside the four huge bulges at the lower end of Caroso's hull, the huge tires inside were being switched using gears. Soon, the four originally installed tires turned into four outer wheels and stuck out of the bubble.
Wow...
When the big bubbles were fused, the first half of Caruso's body suddenly began to gain weight, and Caruso also sank into the sea.
The four huge outer wheels began to rotate, pushing Caruso forward slowly, at a slightly slower speed.
The four outer wheels are Caruso's only power in the sea. No other system can help Caruso move forward, otherwise the bubble film may be destroyed.
These four outer wheels can also be used when moving forward on the sea. In windless areas, the sails can be furled and moved forward even if there is no wind. The original Caroso had such a function.
It's just that now that the Breathing Shell is available, the cost-effectiveness of these four outer wheels when traveling on the sea is not as high as that of the Breathing Shell.
Caruso's bow still maintained that weight, so they continued to dive towards the bottom of the sea.
"Caroso, it's almost done, don't go down any further."
【oh!】
After Caruso responded, the weight of the hull gradually returned to balance, and Caruso's direction became horizontal.
"Is this the bottom of the sea? There are so many marine creatures."
"Okay...so awesome."
“What an interesting experience.”
"Wow, there is a big sea beast over there. Will it attack us?"
...
Perhaps because they were in a very shallow location, the scene in the sea was not as dark and cold as imagined, and the surrounding visibility was also very high.
Under the sunlight, the underwater world looked extremely attractive, attracting the attention of the monster family who had never seen this scene before.
Needless to say, the children at home were all very excited. Even Perona and Kella, who were obviously scared, pretended to be brave and looked outside the bubble.
Ajin and Robin, who are usually indifferent to worldly matters, also rarely showed strong interest and enthusiasm.
Perhaps only Caruso himself was not very surprised by this, after all, he had had the experience of sneaking in the sea of clouds before.
Caroso is surrounded by countless strange and bizarre fish.
At a glance, there are more than a dozen flavors that I have never tasted before.
Looking further down, there are some "petite" sea beasts.
These are vulnerable creatures in the Grand Line.
They noticed Caruso, but because the membrane bubble blocked the smell of the ship's hull, they didn't know it was a ship. They just thought it was a similar creature with a relatively large body.
Therefore, not only did they not launch an attack, they even had the intention of giving way and escaping.
According to the current rules seen under the sea, perhaps the further you go down, the larger and more terrifying the marine creatures below will become.
"Interesting, I'm starting to look forward to the adventure on Fish-Man Island."
Kazan glanced at the scene in the sea with a smile, and then waved to Caruso to float to the surface.
The shell under the dragon scales began to absorb the bubbles outside after Caroso completely surfaced, firmly adhering to the principle of no waste.
on deck.
"How about it? Remember those feelings. If you try it again, can you do it?"
Kazan reached out and patted Caruso on the head.
【No problem!】
"Then, try it yourself later."
Later, Kazan asked Sugar to once again use the power of the Gate Fruit to notify the four people below the deck and bring them to the deck.
"Caruso seems to have memorized how to use the 'ability', I plan to test it again."
"Huh? So fast?"
Franky was a little confused. Did he remember everything just by trying the boat once?
Could this be the spirit of the ship?
"Just give it a try and you'll know. It's best to let him feel it a few times later."
Kazan was still very confident in his younger brother, and then he repeated the steps just now under the witness of the four shipwrights.
Valley is no problem at all.
The accuracy of the operation even exceeded expectations.
This is also natural.
How can other people's understanding of their own bodies be as strong and in control as my own?
"incredible."
"This is the 'Ship Spirit', the natural master of the ship."
"What an enviable talent."
The three shipwrights were surprised and even obsessed with Caruso's existence.
Kazan and the others didn't know what the existence of the "Ship Spirit" meant to the shipwrights, so they didn't pay as much attention to it as they did.
After just two rounds of testing, Caruso gradually approached the Capital of Seven Waters, which had already entered the sight of the monster family.
After all, the distance is quite close to begin with.
However, when the Capital of Seven Waters appeared in the sight of the Monster Family and the others, Caruso also appeared in the attention of the Capital of Seven Waters.
The people in the Capital of Seven Waters couldn't help but stare at the approaching black and red ship.
Black and red hull colors are rare on this sea, and the most famous pirate group has only one...
Monster Pirates.
But the problem is that anyone who has paid attention to the Monster Pirates knows that their ship is a single-masted small to medium-sized sailing ship.
As for the one that was approaching, not to mention it was a medium to large two-masted sailing ship, the special shape and oppressive feeling of the building on the deck did not mean it was the ship of the Monster Pirates.
When everyone thinks so.
They discovered that it was just what they thought.
"Ehhhhh! Is it really the ship of the Monster Pirates?!"
"You're kidding! Is...their ship looks like this?"
"Idiot, it turns out that the Monster Pirates changed ships in the past three months since they disappeared."
"It's over, the Monster Pirates are back, and the sea that has finally become a little stable is about to become chaotic again."
"Calm down! The next goal of the Monster Pirates is the New World. If there is chaos, it will be chaos in the New World. If chaos cannot come to us, don't be afraid."
"Is this really true... The Monster Pirates can throw the whole world into turmoil just by being in the park? How do you know that they will not affect the park after entering the new world... They are...monsters.
"
...
Maybe even the members of the monster family themselves had never expected how much of a deterrent they now have on this sea.
Just appearing in the sight of these civilians is enough to scare their courage and make them fearful for the future.
Today's Monster Pirates...are no longer the Monster Pirates of the past.
Rather, it is a monster that can make the whole sea feel pressure.
However, no matter what kind of deterrent power the Monster Pirates have on this sea now, and what kind of trouble they will cause when they appear again, it has nothing to do with the Seven Waters for the time being.
"Dan, Bingshan, and Franky have been sent here. If they are sent any further, you may get into trouble."
Looking at the crowd gathered on the coast, Kazan did not let the boat get closer, but stopped dozens of meters away.
"Ah... don't worry, I'll take them there."
Dan stretched and said that was enough.
Next, you can completely rely on Dan to take Franky and Bingshan into the Seven Waters Capital from underwater, and it will still be the kind that will not be discovered.
"Thank you for your help."
"It's too polite to say this between us, Kazan."
"I don't want to owe anyone any favors."
None of the three people cared about Kazan's thanks, as it seemed to them that it was nothing.
"Then, I won't say anything unnecessary. If you need anything in the future, you can contact us. We have already given you our phone number."
Kazan stopped making polite remarks. After experiencing the incident on Judiciary Island, they were already trustworthy people.
Regarding Caruso's transformation, their monster family indeed owed them a favor.
"Well, let's leave first. It seems like there might be a problem if we stay any longer."
Dan glanced at the increasingly noisy shore of the Seven Waters Capital, pressed the hat on his head, then quickly jumped into the water with Bingshan and Franky, and swam towards the Seven Waters Capital under the water.
With Caruso attracting attention on this sea, there was no need to worry about them being discovered.
"Xiao Feng, bring the sugar. I will leave these two girls Guina and Noqigao to you."
Kazan glanced at Feng Clay and Sugar beside him. With their combined abilities, they could quietly send the two little girls into the Seven Waters Capital.
"Nissan, are you going to the New World next?"
Guina did not leave in a hurry, but took a step forward and looked at Kazan for confirmation.
"Um."
"I will continue to work hard! One day I will go to the new world! When the time comes...please Nissan go all out and fight me."
Guina was a little excited, and even accidentally grabbed a pendant on her chest with her left hand.
It was a white magatama.
Kazan had given half of the yin-yang magatama to Kuina and Sauron. Kazan did not expect that Kuina still kept it, and he had almost forgotten about it.
"Okay, I won't be merciful. If I lose, I will tell Zoro. That guy will definitely laugh at you."
"I...I won't lose!"
Kuina didn't want to be laughed at by that idiot Zoro no matter what.
"Brother Kazan, I have to leave too."
Nokigao also came up at the right time, grabbed a shiny pendant on his chest and raised it, specifically to show it to Kazan.
After a second or two, Kazan remembered that he had also given Nokigao and Nami a snow crystal pendant each, but he still kept the ordinary gadgets.
Kazan felt somewhat that this symbolic gift was so meaningful in the eyes of these little guys.
Suddenly, Kazan seemed to understand some of Shanks's psychological feelings when he gave away his straw hat.
"Well, go slow on the road, be careful, and follow that old man Zefa, he is a good teacher."
"I understand!" x2
The two blue-haired little girls nodded, and then bowed solemnly to Kazan.
After that, Feng Clay transformed into a giant eagle and carried Kuina and Nokigao into the door opened by Sugar, and flew from the world inside the door towards the Capital of Seven Waters.
Finally, they were placed on the high wall of the inner court of the Capital of Seven Waters before flying back.
The two blue-haired girls did not leave immediately, but held the pendants on their chests and watched the monster family gradually go away.
"Everyone is here, then... Caruso, let's go."
【oh!】
Caruso's excited voice sounded, and Noda's ship began to turn around without being controlled by anyone, and sailed towards the distance.
