Arceus in One Piece - Chapter 56
Fishman Island is located 10,000 meters under the sea, and it is the only way for pirates to reach the New World.
The Red Earth Continent bisects the Great Voyage, and as the world government has the deepest presence in the Red Earth Continent, especially in Marijoa, which is the home of the Penguin, the security force here is very strong.
Illegal pirates are not qualified to pass through here, so they have to take the risk and choose Fishman Island in the deep sea.
There are submarines in this world, but most pirates can’t get this kind of high technology, and the only way to enter Fishman Island is by coating.
However, human beings are not creatures of the ocean, and there are countless dangers in the deep sea, whether they are sea kings or undersea volcanoes, which will pose a fatal threat to the ship.
Once the coating is damaged, the ship will be destroyed, and the huge water pressure will kill most of the people instantly.
The plating is also a technical job. In the first half of the story, you can only find plating artisans in the Chambord Islands, which is a mixed bag. There are really skilled artisans who can make safe and reliable plating.
But there are also some unscrupulous scammers whose coating is a countdown to death, with the risk of cracking at any time.
If the coating breaks after the first dive, you can’t afford it.
Not to mention the fact that there is also the ability of a dry duck, even if Kaido sinks to the bottom of the sea, there is no way, so he does not intend to go to Fishman Island at all.
Fishman Island is a necessary passage for ordinary pirates, but he is not an ordinary pirate, but a pirate with the ability to fly on a large scale, just like the Golden Lion’s Flying Pirates, but when the Golden Lion himself goes out, he will always bring his own ship and fly through the sky.
The same goes for Kaido. Although they can’t pass through the Red Continent like the Marines and the commoners, they can fly through it, albeit with a slight detour, and they won’t be flying right over Mary Joa’s head.
Above the clouds, the One Hundred Pirates took a shortcut across the Redlands with a group of pirates on board who were lost when they failed to see the mermaids.
After nearly a year of leaving the Institute, they finally reached the New World, where the waters were more dangerous and the climate more volatile than in the first half of Paradise, and the first thing the Pirates were greeted with was a thunderstorm in the sky.
The first thing the Pirates are greeted with is a thunderstorm in the sky. A thunderstorm, in the true sense of the word, is a special climate where there is only thunder and lightning but no rain.
Darkness enveloped the sky, and the sound of electrical charges colliding rang out one after another.
Dense thunder and lightning struck the decks of the ships like rain, striking fear into the hearts of these pirates who were new to the new world.
They also realized what kind of power Arceus, who had a very high position on the ship, had. Arceus sent a beam of light into the sky, and the thunderclouds cleared up in no time at all, turning the area into a bright, sunny day once again.
The pirate world respects the strongest. Previously, they obeyed Arceus because of Shaina’s power, but now they are convinced by Arceus’ power to change the sky, and they respect the Holy Beast Lord many times over.
It was a good time for him to show off his power, unlike Kaido, who had a high bounty on his head and didn’t want to show off his power like a monkey, but now was a good time to do it, and this was his first time to show off his holiness in front of people.
One more thing: the intense thunderstorms are disturbing his rest.
As for the ability transformation, these people’s abilities still need to be qualified for him to transform their abilities, and even Kaido didn’t bring this up. Abilities are for those who have the strength.
These people must at least spend some time in the environment of the new world or have some special ability that is valued before they can do so.
The “clearing” he used was not on the same level as the clearing used by Asuka.
Even the most difficult weather in the New World was nothing to him, but as the Hundred Beasts’ ship left the area, the dense thunderstorms filled the waters again.
The people on a nearby island were relieved that “selling umbrellas” was an important source of economic activity for the island. Without this source of economy, they want to pay the offerings much more difficult.
The Beast’s ship soon docked on this island, and they needed to replace their supplies, such as the New World’s unique recording pointer.
Due to the special magnetic field of the Great Voyage, the original compasses and compasses will lose their original functions, so if you want to navigate the Great Voyage, the recording pointers are indispensable.
They can capture the magnetic signal of the next island and record the signal, and the direction of the compass will only change once you arrive here.
So, every time you arrive at an island, it takes anywhere from a few hours to a few months for the compass to fill up so that you can set off to the next island.
This is one of the reasons why Arceus’s search for the tablet was delayed. Sailing on the sea is already very laborious, and once you come across an island that has a longer time to store its signals, it will be even more time-consuming.
After all, there are only a handful of islands that have the Eternity Pointer.
Even in the first half of Paradise, navigating in the New World becomes even more dangerous.
The magnetic field of the New World is even more chaotic than that of Paradise, as evidenced by the thunderstorms earlier in the game, as well as the odd cloud that rains icebergs and even knives.
Even without enemies, navigating the New World is a dangerous endeavor.
The recording pointer allows the ship to sail safely for the first half of the voyage, but once in the New World, the original recording pointer is no longer reliable.
But this is fine for those who live on the sea, and an upgraded version of the recording pointer is born.
It doesn’t look much different from a normal logging pointer, except that it has two extra dials and three-pointers on it instead of one, so there are more options to choose the safest route.
The safer the route, the lower the frequency of fluctuation of the recording pointer, and a normal pirate would choose a safer route from among them.
The islands in the New World all had their own masters, so if you didn’t want to provoke them, normal pirates would abide by the local rules, even the big pirates. Otherwise, it would mean declaring war.
At this moment, the Hundred Beasts didn’t want to start a war. They were still in the development period, so the money exchanged for John’s treasures came into play here, and a large amount of goods were purchased onto the ship, including a dozen recording pointers.
This is a necessary item to be prepared in order to prevent damage due to various factors such as wind and waves. The ship will always store a few more for backup.
What remained unchanged were the news birds that flew in the sky, their newspapers always delivering new news.
“Brother Caddo, Boss Beast, there’s new news in the paper!”
