"G8 branch..."
Ross's eyes flickered slightly and said: "We only have a record pointer and cannot bypass the next turtle. This kind of thing is unavoidable. If it comes, let them do it."
Robin smiled softly, sat back on the chair, and said, "The captain is still so confident."
Although there was a smile on her face, her tone was not relaxed.
Rhodes' behavior has already angered the top brass of the Navy, and she is also the target of a large bounty offered by the World Government. In addition, before they even set foot on the Grand Line, they have already caused a huge stir in the Western Sea, attracting countless eyes.
In this case, once their whereabouts are exposed, the navy will inevitably encircle and suppress them with all their strength, and will not give them a chance to grow, because their danger is obviously much higher than other pirate groups.
Compared with other pirate groups, they recruit crew members and grow slowly along the way. As soon as they set foot on the Grand Line, they will face the full force of the navy's massive encirclement and suppression!
This will be an unavoidable and most dangerous siege.
Only by escaping from this siege and ascending to heaven can they truly gain a firm foothold on the Grand Line and no longer have to worry about capsizing at any time.
"Since what is coming must come, and there is no way to avoid it, then any emotion is meaningless, and I will not be afraid."
Ross responded calmly.
As he said, since it is bound to come and cannot be avoided, then be prepared to face it. Besides, this is not a desperate situation. On the contrary, this will be the beginning of making the Navy Headquarters fear him. !
"I didn't want to be a pirate. It was you who made me become a pirate. Now, I'm here. I wonder if you...are you ready?"
Ross looked at the undulating sea in the distance, his eyes flickered slightly, then walked into the cabin, returned to the training room, and started exercising again.
…
Five days later.
The Ghost Shadow arrived at the second island on a certain route on the Grand Line, Elias Island. This is a large island with a country on the island, the Elias Kingdom.
When people face oppression, they can always bring out more of their potential. Perhaps because of the upcoming decisive battle, Ross's physical fitness and domineering spirit have improved a lot after these five days of crazy training.
The originally unstable weapon color has gradually become stable, and the failure rate of activating the weapon color hardening has become very low. As long as Ross is absolutely calm and focused, there will be almost no failure.
This is actually only one step away from completely mastering the color hardening of weapons.
And if you encounter a battle, this line will be crossed quickly. In the world of One Piece, battle is always one of the most effective ways to stimulate your potential.
"It seems that it will take at least a week to store the full magnetic power of a large island." Looking at Elias Island in front of him, Lafitte glanced at the record pointer on his hand.
"It doesn't matter."
Rhodes stood in front of the deck with his hands behind his hands. After looking at the islands in front of him, he instructed everyone to drive the ship to the west of Elias Island, under a cliff, and drop the anchor.
The reason for not docking at the port was to avoid being bombarded by the navy that came to pursue him after being directly exposed at the port. Although he was not afraid of bombardment, the Ghost Shadow was different. Although this ship was very strong, if it was attacked by warships, The bombardment, even if it is not sunk, will still be beaten black and blue.
"Can you go up?"
Ross looked up at the cliff about thirty meters high above and asked Lafitte and Robin.
Lafitte looked up and said, "No problem."
"This height... you can give it a try."
Robin made a judgment and responded a little slowly.
Wow!
After Lafitte finished speaking, he gently shook the wooden stick in his hand, and two white wings appeared strangely behind his back. With a slight flash, he flew towards the top of the cliff.
"Is it a devil fruit or some kind of ability?"
Ross was not surprised when he saw this scene. This was Lafitte's ability in his memory, but he had no intention of asking.
"Thirty rounds of flowers blooming..."
Robin watched Lafitte fly up. She took a deep breath, crossed her hands in front of her, and activated her ability. In an instant, countless arms surged out from the petals and combined on her shoulders to form two After flapping her wings vigorously, she flew upwards.
Robin's body shape is perfect, with a slender waist and slender legs that are both impeccable. The reason why it is so difficult to fly is obviously not because he is too fat, but because his fruit ability is not developed enough.
Ross looked at this scene and couldn't help but shook his head slightly and said: "Your fruit ability is a bit poorly developed, and it should be developed again."
Wow!
Robin barely managed to fly to a position of about twenty-five meters. Finally, he could no longer control the wings composed of countless arms. The wings collapsed and turned into petals and disappeared.
However, she did not fall directly. Instead, she leaned on the edge of the cliff well prepared. She made arms on the edge of the cliff, like a plank road, and walked up step by step.
“…”
Ross looked at Robin who just walked up and felt that something was wrong with the plot.
Seeing Robin finally ascending the cliff, he clicked his tongue and finally shook his head. It would be great to have the ability.
Seeing that Lafitte and Robin had already landed on the island, Ross turned to look at the handymen on the boat and said, "You guys, if anything happens here, please use the phone bug to notify me immediately."
Telephone bugs are so convenient for the navy. Of course, Rhodes couldn't let them go. After Lafitte boarded the ship, he has been searching for and equipping them. Now there are three in total, and one is placed on the ship. He and Lafitte Hold one in each hand.
As for Robin...just go with yourself.
"Yes! Captain!"
These handymen were originally in awe of Ross. After Lafitte boarded the ship, Ross asked Lafitte to brainwash them through group hypnosis, and their loyalty was basically maximized.
Whoosh!
After giving the order, Rhodes jumped up, stepped in the air several times, used the moon step to step up into the air, and rushed to the cliff in an instant. Lafitte and Robin were waiting on the edge of the cliff.
"Robin, come with me. Lafitte, you can act alone. If you need anything, please contact us at any time." Ross said to Lafitte.
"As you command, Captain."
The wings on Lafitte's back had long disappeared. He smiled slightly, put his cane behind his back, and bowed slightly to Ross.
The three of them walked towards the interior of the island, and then separated at the edge of the Elias Kingdom.
…
at the same time.
In a certain sea area, a fleet led by two large warships, plus three medium-sized warships, is sailing at full speed on the sea, only four days away from Elias Island!
