Somewhere on the sea.
In the violent storm, the Ghost Shadow was sailing through the wind and waves. Occasionally, a huge wave appeared, and it was immediately suppressed by a strange force, unable to shake the ship.
I don’t know how long we have been sailing, but the dark sky suddenly brightened up, and the violent storm disappeared without a trace in an instant. Looking back, I saw that there was still a violent storm behind me, and there was a very clear dividing line between the middle of the gentle sea and the violent storm. .
The sky and sea seem to be divided into two parts here.
This kind of scenery is strange and shocking, but for Rhodes and others who have been sailing on the Grand Route for a long time and have experienced all kinds of abnormal weather, it is nothing. It only makes them slightly surprised, and then they all recover as before.
"Well, we can already see it, the Island of Lawlessness."
Lafitte took a telescope and looked straight ahead, clearly capturing a black spot at the end of his sight, which was an island.
After leaving the Spring Island, the Ghost Shadow sailed straight away from the Oyiqi waters, and the next island chosen by Rhodes was the Lawless Island in the chaotic sea.
This is a large island, but it does not have any country. Instead, it is divided by many forces. It is an island where pirates often appear and there are various dark underground transactions.
Ross stood calmly on the deck with his hands behind his back, looking at the black spot at the end of his sight from a distance. The deck was wet under his feet, but his clothes showed no sign of getting wet. All the rain was touching him. The body fell aside in an instant.
"captain."
At this moment, Robin came over and said in a deep voice to Ross: "There is news from Kaku that Hawkeye Mihawk, one of the King's Shichibukai, appeared on the Lawless Island two days ago. . ”
After hearing Robin's words, Ross's eyes finally flashed with a wave of emotion.
Originally, I chose the Lawless Island as the next island, not because I was chasing some prey, but just as a transit point. I didn't expect that I would encounter the Shichibukai in this way.
Moreover, this Shichibukai has completely exceeded Rhodes' current goal. The world's greatest swordsman, Hawkeye Mihawk, even if his strength is doubled, he may not have a chance.
"I see."
Ross nodded and threw the news aside, not intending to pay attention to it.
soon.
The Ghost Shadow approached the Lawless Island and docked on an uninhabited shore. Ross, Lafitte, and Robin boarded the island, leaving Luo, Xilu, and others to guard the ship.
"Robin, follow me, Lafitte is free to move."
"Okay, Captain Rhodes."
Lafitte had long been accustomed to this kind of distribution of actions. He turned around and disappeared on the island, while Rhodes took Robin and entered the island from another direction.
Of course, when we act together with Robin, we don't want to do anything special.
Compared to Lafitte, Robin's memory is not much. The eight-year-old doctor of archeology has proven everything. Now she has memorized almost everything she can collect, with a bounty of more than 20 million beli. Pirates can basically be identified quickly when encountering them.
If you want to compare it with the identification function of the pacifist, it is of course incomparable, but it is much better than Rhodes. Today, Rhodes only remembers the reward order of the first half of the supernova with a reward of more than 100 million. As for He didn't bother to remember the rest, so he threw them all to Robin.
Whatever talents you have, you must put them into use. Ross felt that he should develop all Robin's talents well.
"The Lawless Island... This place is not very far from the Navy Headquarters and the Red Earth Continent. I didn't expect such a chaotic place to exist."
After stepping into a street, feeling the dark and depressing atmosphere around him and the occasional dried blood on the side of the street, Robin lowered the brim of his hat slightly and murmured.
"Maybe it's because it's surrounded by stormy seas."
Rhodes said that when they came before, the stormy sea area they passed through was a ring, which happened to wrap the Lawless Island in the center.
Because passing through storm waters is risky, even navy warships may capsize, so the navy and the government completely ignored the island.
in the dark.
The figures of Ross and Robin attracted a lot of attention.
To be precise, it was Robin's figure that attracted a lot of attention. In terms of figure, Robin is now almost impeccable, with a slender waist, and even if the brim of the hat blocks most of his face, it can't hide his temperament.
On this lawless island, except for the central bustling area where beauties of Robin's level can be seen, it is almost impossible to see beauties of Robin's level in the fringe areas. Therefore, when Robin and Rhodes walked onto the street, they were quickly attracted by Many glances in the dark.
"Where did this guy come from, walking outside with a woman so blatantly..."
"It seems there are only two people."
These eyes revealed a bit of greed and lust.
This is an island of lawlessness, a place where even the navy and government ignore it. Law and order do not exist here at all, only guns and gunpowder exist!
There are only two types of people who dare to take a woman with him so blatantly in such a remote area. One type is a person who is strong and has the confidence to fear anything. The other type is someone who luckily passed through the stormy sea and ended up living in this remote area. On this island, there is a rookie who knows nothing about the situation here.
So, which one is it
As Ross and Robin went deeper into the street, more and more eyes were staring at them. However, although these eyes were full of greed and desire, they did not rush forward in a swarm. Instead, they were restrained. Worry about encountering the first situation.
certainly.
The most indispensable thing in this world is people who never think. After Ross and Robin walked for a while, someone still came out of the darkness and followed them.
There were three people in total, all holding firecrackers. They slowly followed Ross and Robin. At the same time, they raised the guns in their hands and pointed at Ross's back, with a ferocious smile on their faces.
boom! boom! boom!
No one said anything, and the three of them fired in perfect agreement.
To deal with a guy of unknown origin like Ross, it is stupid to jump out and talk a lot of nonsense arrogantly. The most valuable thing here is human life. No matter who he is, kill him first. Even if he is really capable, he will be killed first. He won't give the other party a chance to show it off.
However.
When the gunfire stopped and the smoke dissipated in the air, the evil smiles on the faces of the three people suddenly solidified, because they saw that the bullets they fired did not leave a blood hole in Ross's body, but touched his body. In an instant, it hovered in mid-air.
Ross did not look back. As he stepped forward, he gently raised his right hand and snapped his fingers.
Snap!
When the sound of snapping fingers sounded in the silent and dark street, the bullets hovering in the air suddenly spun and shot towards the three people.
As blood splashed everywhere, the three of them looked horrified. They wanted to make a sound, but none of them could. They fell to the ground silently, and the blood slowly flowed out and spread all the way on the street.
There was silence!
It wasn't until the backs of Ross and Robin disappeared at the end of the street that countless sounds of breathing came from the darkness, and the eyes hidden in the darkness were filled with a hint of fear.
"The bullet flew back, there will be no mistake..."
"Devil Fruit user!"
Although this is a lawless island on the Grand Line, they are all the lowest level people on this island. Although they have seen Devil Fruit abilities many times, a Devil Fruit ability user is obviously not something they can provoke. exist.
