Arceus in One Piece - Chapter 91
“I’ll take revenge for the organ trafficking and assassination syndicate.” Mary Joa’s side was already hostile, but there was one more.
There were no survivors left on the ship, and the fact that she had pressed for information about the pair of wings increased the likelihood of exposure, and extermination was the only option, not to mention the fact that these were the organ trafficking assassination syndicate.
It was a group more repulsive than pirates.
“Queen, thanks for this.”
Queen’s sunglasses almost fell into the ocean after he said that, and he thought he should get a cochlear implant.
“You’re still going to say thank you?”
That was inaccurate; it was Shayna who said it to him that was the most outrageous, but Shayna’s following words proved that she was still the same person; nothing had changed at all!
“Don’t get me wrong, I still hate you so-called researchers, but one size does not fit all, and next time I can’t help but punch you in the face, you can mention it.”
For what it was worth, Queen did deserve a thank you for reminding her about the pair of wings, but getting her to turn her attitude around because it was not going to happen.
“A get-out-of-jail-free card?”
“No, but I’ll consider going easy on her.”
“.”
Queen and Shaina returned to their original ship, and their business was handled cleanly; after all, the entire ship had been burned down to nothing, and I was afraid that only the microbes of the ocean would find what they needed inside.
How could such erasure on a physical level not be handled cleanly?
“Lord Sacred Beast, there may be more than one ship chasing the Millennium Dragon, but we haven’t found any traces of them in the nearby waters.”
This was the same information that she had gotten earlier, that there were three ships chasing the Millennium Dragons and that the remaining two boats were chasing the other Millennium Dragons.
It was just that she and Queen had circled the nearby waters and hadn’t seen any sign of the ships.
“Chasing. How did they do that?”
Millennium dragons can fly; if not for this one’s injury, it would never have been possible to catch up with them by relying on the wind-powered sailboats; it’s impossible for the Millennium dragons to carry injuries individually, as long as they maintain a reasonable altitude, regular artillery can’t even hurt them.
“We don’t know about that either, but Lord Sacred Beast, where are we going next?”
“To the home of the Millennium Dragon, it will show us the way.”
The wounded Millennium Dragon stood on the bow of the ship, its wings waving in the direction of the moonlight.
Midnight feathers break through the clouds, and the moonlight guides the final direction.
This is the sentence translated by Olga, but now it seems that the moonlight is really guiding the direction of the Millennium Dragon’s home; the clouds in the sky began to close in, the moonlight path gradually disappeared, and the boat of the hundred beasts followed the guidance of the Millennium Dragon and sailed forward.
However, when they reached the end of the moonlight, no island appeared in front of them.
“There’s nothing there; the dragon can’t be pointing the wrong way, can it?”
“No, it just said that they have arrived and that their dwelling place is right above us.” Elizabeth translated the words of the thousand-year-old dragon, and at the same time, she looked at the top of her head in disbelief.
“Apex, the empty island?”
Empty Island is one of the specialties of the pirate world. Empty Island is a general term for the islands in the sky, not just a single island, and it exists in both the first half of Paradise and the second half of the New World.
To the pirates and people of the New World, Kurushima is not too strange.
It was not because there were more empty islands in the New World but because the Golden Lion had created some floating islands, but they were lower than the natural ones.
Although it is artificial, it is also part of the empty island.
There is also a more detailed answer to the saying, “Midnight’s feathers break through the clouds, and the moonlight guides the final direction.”
These thousand-year-old dragons live here on the empty island, and their primary source of food is empty fish.
The so-called airfish are fish that live in the white sea high in the sky.
There are many different kinds of clouds here, including iron clouds, which are as hard as iron; rope clouds, which can be used as ropes; marsh clouds, which are like swamps; and the most common sea clouds.
The unique sea made up of sea clouds is called the White Sea, and these clouds are the same as seawater so that ships can sail on them, and particular fish live in them.
There is no uniformity in the altitude of the air islands, with the highest air islands being located at 10,000 meters above the White Sea and the lower ones at several thousand meters.
There are two ways to get to an air island: one is to find their hidden passages and climb up the stairs made of sea clouds, and the other is to look for the sky current.
These thousand-year-old dragons live on one of the lower islands, but from below, you can’t see the changes from above.
The so-called feathers breaking through the clouds on the treasure map refer to the fact that when the Millennium Dragons were hunting for air fish, their wings would temporarily cut a slit in the sea clouds so that the moonlight could penetrate through the sea clouds and shine on the sea surface, and the end point would be right underneath that empty island.
However, this Millennium Dragon made a mistake; the path it led was correct, but it was the way home for the Millennium Dragons, not a landing place for human ships. The Millennium Dragons could go up there just by waving their wings, but it was more challenging for human boats.
The current is not bound to the empty islands; some areas have the current near the empty islands, but other empty islands may not have the current.
Although Hundred Beasts’ ship was now right below where the Millennium Dragon lived, the only way to get up there was to fly.
“Bosses! There’s something falling from the sky!”
The ship’s lookout shouted as he rushed down below. The moonlight began to disappear, and with some of the remaining moonlight, he could only barely make out a few black shadows; anything more would be invisible.
The shadows were falling fast, and soon, there was a series of sounds of falling water.
It seems that some unknown battles are going on up there, not only human corpses but also the bodies of thousand-year-old dragons and fragments of the ship.
The thousand-year-old dragon on the ship seemed to have gone wild after seeing the dead body; ignoring the freshly stitched wounds on his body, he lifted his wings and flew into the sky.
“Lord Sacred Beast, what should we do now?”
“Up we go, of course, and have everyone hold on to something around them to immobilize themselves.” Said Arceus as he stomped his foot. A wave of energy traveled through the hull of the ship into the ocean, and within a few moments, the sea seemed to boil.
As the members of the Hundred Beasts had just secured themselves, a current rushed out of the ocean and carried the Hundred Beasts and Pirates’ ship into the sky.
There was no such thing as a sky rush here, so he would create one himself.
The water-drop tablet had the power to control the current, and the current created by Arceus carried the ship into the sky.
