Chapter 316 Raftel
There is indeed a small problem now.
The Upside Down Mountain is really too big.
Although it didn’t take the Straw Hat Pirates too much time to cross the Upside Down Mountain in the original comics, the mountain is actually ridiculously large.
You should know that the width of the Red Earth Continent is basically not less than the Grand Line.
Even if the Upside Down Mountain is narrower, it can still be called a continent in the true sense.
It is not easy to find an island inside such a huge Upside Down Mountain.
What’s more troublesome is that the four signposts recorded in the historical text are really just four marking points, and nothing else is mentioned.
It seems to be certain that everyone who comes here can find the entrance to the final island.
But when he really stood under this mountain, he just felt full of confusion.
”There should be a passage under the sea, right?”
Ian guessed.
Strictly speaking, the information revealed by the four landmark historical texts is still useful.
After connecting the four islands, the final marking point is not the upside-down mountain, but closer to the sea.
It should be the entrance marked directly.
Now that we have come here, since we can’t see it above the sea, it means that it will only be under the sea.
”Should we let the fishmen search the seabed immediately?”
Jack spoke immediately.
Whether the entrance to the final island is in the sky or under the sea, it is not a problem for them.
In the sky, the Apollo has a large number of new fighters.
In the sea, the fishmen are also on standby at any time.
“No need, that’s too slow.”
The intersection of the four islands cannot be accurately located at the entrance from here, there must be a considerable range of deviation.
That is to say, the search should take some time.
But Ian no longer has that patience.
Ian raised his beautiful eyebrows, his eyes moved, and there seemed to be a red light flashing in his dark pupils.
The observation Haki spread out immediately.
It goes without saying that the Conqueror Haki will be strengthened synchronously with the strength of the individual. Ian is already so strong that it is appalling.
Even in the Armament Haki, Ian has almost reached the top of the sea in these six years. Even the hero Garp, who is best at Armament Haki, may not be able to compare with him.
If the Armament Haki is at this level, the Observation Haki is naturally not much behind.
Although Ian’s observation is better at detecting breath, it is not impossible to use it to observe the surrounding scenery when the strength is increased.
The terrifying observation Haki poured directly into the interior of the Upside-down Mountain in an instant.
Go forward, keep going forward, and reach the deepest part of the Upside-down Mountain.
”Humph.”
Ian’s mouth corners raised, “Isn’t it found now?”
It may be difficult to find the final island directly with observation Haki, because the distance is probably really far.
But it should not be difficult to find the road leading to the final island hidden inside the Upside-down Mountain. After all, according to the direction indicated by the sea chart, it should be nearby.
Ian thought so and did so, and now he has indeed found it.
He raised his right hand and pointed to the mountain wall in front of him on the right. “From there, the deep sea canal leading to Raftel is down there.”
“I’ll ask someone to coat it right away.”
Jack subconsciously wanted to run back.
”No need to bother.”
Ian shook his head. “That’s too slow.”
”Barrett, it’s time for you to perform again.”
”Hmph,”
Barrett snorted, but didn’t complain this time. “Then you have to point the direction!”
He landed heavily on his right foot, and the ability of the fusion fruit was activated instantly. The purple light had enveloped the entire ship in the blink of an eye.
”Oh!”
Shanks looked up in surprise.
The sky above and the sea on both sides were blocked by purple substances.
So have they been swallowed by Barrett who used his ability? Although I have known Barrett’s ability for a long time, this is indeed my first time to experience it.
I have to say, it feelsIt felt quite amazing.
The appearance of the ship wrapped in purple material did not change much. At most, there was a dome covering the entire ship on top, enclosing everyone inside.
Then, the ship crashed into the mountain wall in the direction Ian pointed just now.
The speed of the ship’s collision was extraordinary. Even if the ship was made of ultra-high-strength Quinn alloy, if it really crashed into the red earth continent, it would probably be damaged in an instant.
However, when the ship really crashed into the red earth continent, the expected collision did not occur, but the ship directly merged into the red earth continent.
Just as if the ship had the ability to escape from the earth, the Apollo traveled inside the red earth continent.
“Oh, can you even do this? You are worthy of being Mr. Barrett!”
Tesoro, now the chief steward of the Beasts Pirates and Ian’s true right-hand man, exclaimed in amazement.
Continuously assimilating the rocky soil in front, opening up a way for the big ship to move forward, and forcing the ship to pass through the interior of the Red Earth Continent.
It’s almost there, the final island is about to arrive.
It’s almost there, Stella, the time for revenge is coming soon.
Ian’s observation Haki is indeed amazingly strong, but because of his professional mismatch, he can’t read minds, and of course he doesn’t know what Tesoro is thinking.
He is just showing Tesoro the way.
The Apollo did not enter the passage inside the Upside-Down Mountain, but it was also moving forward along this passage.
Until this moment, everyone really realized it.
“Are we going to reach Raftel soon?”
Yamato couldn’t help but hold Ian’s hand, his voice still a little dazed.
“It should take a little time,”
Ian said, after all, his observation Haki couldn’t see the end of the passage below.
“But it’s almost there.”
How far can it be?
Since we are on the right path now, it’s only a matter of time to reach the final destination.
“Ian, you are going to become the Pirate King!”
Yamato simply hugged Ian’s arm and pressed his soft body against him.
“Pirate King?”
Ian smiled, “Let’s see for now.”
Before becoming the king of the world, let’s use this title.
But to be honest, why does the Pirate King sound a level lower than the Pirate Emperor?
Forget it, just follow the local customs.
The Apollo continued to go deeper into the Upside-Down Mountain.
Finally, after going deep at high speed for most of the day.
At a certain moment, Ian’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Continue to move forward, and within two minutes, the other people on the deck also showed excited smiles.
”Feel it, is it there?”
Teacher Kai was the first to shout excitedly.
”It shouldn’t be wrong!”
The red-haired man’s face was also full of excitement, “Such a large space, of course it is where Raftel is!”
The masters who are good at observation Haki have already seen it.
In the distance ahead, a huge space is showing its true appearance to them.
”It’s coming – no! It’s finally coming!”
Redfield also broke down and could no longer hold up his icy face. The visible impatience was blooming on his face. Then again, the final island is within sight, who can not be impatient for it? That is the great secret treasure that has been sought by generations for 800 years, but only Roger and his group have found it.
The one who reacted most intensely was of course Nicole Robin, a beautiful woman who was originally intellectual and elegant, but now her eyes were red and sparkling with tears.
Finally, it’s finally this moment!
After another short period of time.
Boom! !
The huge warship suddenly shook.
Then a strong sense of weightlessness swept everyone on the ship.
Barrett lifted the dome covering the top of the big ship.
The surrounding scene was finally displayed in front of everyone at this moment.
It was pitch black.
Nothing could be seen.
They seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss of hell.
“Ugh, ugh, ugh!”
Teacher Kai immediately entered the dragon form, and the flame cloud flowedFlowing out.
The flame-like cloud not only brought light, but also wrapped up the entire ship, instantly stopping its falling momentum.
”Can’t see clearly!”
Yamato had already pounced on the side of the ship, and couldn’t wait to stretch his neck to look down.
But it was still dark below.
”It’s too dark, I can’t see anything!”
”Mmhahaha! Leave it to me!”
At this time, Uncle Quinn, the technical leader of the Beasts Pirates, strode forward, raised his mechanical left arm high and aimed directly at the black sky.
”I’ve been prepared for this situation!”
”Artificial sun! Fire!”
Bang! A cannonball shot into the sky from the barrel of his left arm.
The cannonball with a little spark didn’t fly very high before it hit the dark ceiling.
The cannonball suddenly exploded, but it was not a violent explosion.
Instead, brilliant light fell from the sky.
Ian narrowed his eyes.
It seemed to be a huge dandelion, emitting strong light like the sun.
Uncle Quinn really has mastered a lot of these messy techniques.
But now it really comes in handy.
Of course, one dandelion is not enough. Uncle Quinn fired several shots at the ceiling in succession, and the sum of several shots almost completely illuminated the space.
Now we can finally see the whole picture of this space clearly.
This is a very wide space, so big that it can almost accommodate an entire city. Putting the ghost island here will even make the big skull look petite and cute.
Above is a hemispherical dome, and below is the water surface. Although it is sea water, it is more like a lake in terms of size.
In the center of the lake, an island exists quietly there.
“That’s Raftel!!”
Teacher Kai was so excited that he almost crushed the title of the Apollo.
Ian looked down at the island below.
The area is not too small, it is much larger than Onigashima.
However.
”Why is Raftel a little different from what I imagined?”
Yamato scratched his face in surprise, turned back to look at Ian with a confused expression.
”That’s what I said.”
Luo couldn’t help laughing, “Who would have thought it would be like this?”
In their original imagination, Raftel should be an ancient relic with a heavy sense of history.
How could it be like this…
”Oh! Oh! Oh!!!!”
Uncle Quinn’s face flushed with excitement, his eyes almost popped out, “It’s actually a city of the future!!”
Yes, the Raftel below is actually a look that no one had thought of before.
Even at high altitude, the strong metallic feel made everyone unable to look away.
The not-so-big island is crowded with steel buildings. From a rough point of view, it is much more advanced than the big cities on the sea now.
Who would have thought that Raftel eight hundred years ago would look like this? Ian couldn’t suppress the smile on his face.
That’s right, the huge kingdom represented by Joyboy eight hundred years ago had a technological level that was even superior to that of the world today.
So it’s only natural that Raftel eight hundred years ago was a city of the future, right?
There are really no shortage of surprises along the way.
Joey Boy, what interesting things did you, a naughty guy, leave on the island?
The Sun God was gently placed on the sea outside the island by Teacher Kai.
Now we can finally take a good look at the appearance of the island.
A wide hardened road, with not-too-high metal buildings on both sides, and various lines and pipelines densely distributed between the buildings.
It is indeed full of futuristic feeling.
”Go up and take a look!”
Yamato can’t wait.
Not only her, everyone is eager to see what amazing things there are on this island whose appearance alone is beyond their expectations.
But before they landed on Raftel, another surprising thing happened.
Wow! The sea surface not far away suddenly splashed with waves, and a big fish jumped up from the bottom of the sea, drew an arc in the air and fell into the sea.
”Huh?”
Sanji was stunned.
“What’s wrong?”Ace, who was looking at the final island excitedly, looked back in surprise.
”That is,”
Sanji was a little stunned, “Ho’s elephant nose tuna.”
”Huh? What fish?”
Ace blinked blankly at the name of this fish he had never heard of, and he subconsciously asked, “So, what’s wrong?”
Sanji said blankly, “But, this is a fish that only lives in the West Sea.”
Ian raised his mouth, “That’s probably because there is more than one passage to enter this space.”
”Now it seems that there should be six passages leading to the four seas and the new world of Paradise.”
Joey Boy is quite considerate, and he fully considered the needs of people in various seas around the world.
Yes, if there is only this entrance to the back of the new world, then if they are in the East China Sea or the South China Sea, wouldn’t it be difficult? But why does the sign only record the entrance to one passage! “So, through these channels, all the fish in the world are converging here!”
Sanji’s eyes suddenly lit up, “This is ALL BLUE!”
ALL BLUE is the dream of all chefs, and Sanji is no exception.
”Then, this place belongs to you.”
Ian said casually.
It doesn’t matter whether there are fish or not, the most important thing now is.
”Land.”
Ian said.
I owe one chapter…I must update it before 12 o’clock tomorrow! (End of this chapter)
