Chapter 7 Demonic Sea, Skeletons and Mummies (1)
The Thousand Sunny, which borrowed the power of the outer wheel, escaped the storm and sailed on the calm sea again. A strange gray fog gradually surrounded me, and the visibility on the sea surface became lower and lower.
"I finally got over it, but what's going on in the sky? It's still noon."
The gray sky gives people a great sense of depression.
"Have we already entered that sea area?" Nami said, holding her chin in thought.
"Are we about to arrive at Mermaid Island?" After hearing Nami's words, Usopp immediately thought of the Mermaid Island that Granny Kokoro talked about when he was adventuring in the Water City.
As early as in the Water Capital, they had already learned the information about their next destination. Usopp looked excited at the thought of meeting a real mermaid soon.
"No, before arriving at Mermaid Island, we have to pass through a sea area infested with ghosts."
Thinking that Usopp didn't know the test he was about to face, Luffy deliberately lowered his straw hat and said in a sinister voice. It's hard to imagine that Luffy would have the tendency to actively scare people, probably in revenge for Usopp's previous departure from the team.
"Yes, we are now in the terrifying Devil's Triangle. Everyone must be careful. This is a terrifying sea area where hundreds of ships disappear mysteriously every year. It is not surprising that monsters and ghosts appear." He was afraid of creating a terrifying atmosphere. It wasn't enough, so Franky also deliberately added fuel to the fire to scare him.
"Ghost, ghost, ghost" The overly nervous Usopp seemed to be tongue-tied and became nervous.
"There are ghosts and monsters in this sea area. Grandma Cocoluo said there are still living skeletons. From my perspective, there might be some moving dead bodies."
Luffy continued to intimidate Usopp with added fuel, while Chopper, who was timid by nature, had already been frightened and hid behind Zoro. His pitifulness was not inferior to that of Usopp.
"Why is it that everyone knows but I don't know? Don't be kidding. How can there be such things as monsters and monsters in the world?"
Although Luffy retorted loudly at first, he obviously became less confident later on, because he saw Su Wei who happened to be drinking tea with Robin on the deck, and the small ears on her head visibly swayed.
"You have to prepare quickly. It would be best to have evil talismans all over your body."
Usopp loudly accused everyone of being irresponsible while making his evil-proof suit. However, no one seemed to notice that just on the gangway leading to the second floor, there was a transparent ghost like a puppet hiding behind the railing and watching them quietly.
Su Wei glanced at the location of the ghost, then calmly retracted her attention, and sure enough, everything that was supposed to come came.
Not far away, a ghostly ship was coming. Singing sounds like ghostly cries were also faintly heard. The weird and terrifying singing sounds made people feel terrified.
On Brooke's boat, a group of people are learning to sing barcarolles with Brooke. He was so bored that Skeleton proposed to teach him singing, and today he unexpectedly agreed.
"Binx's wine, please send it over."
Brooke sang a line and a line followed. The two of them had been doing this all day, passing the boring time.
"That's not the case, Mr. Yi Xing, your tone is completely wrong. Don't sound like crying, you should be like me."
Throughout the day, the out-of-tune singing almost broke Brook's nerves and even gave him the urge to die again. Finally, he decided to start teaching the most basic vocalizations.
"Hohohohohohohoho"
The low, magnetic male voice mixed with nasal sounds echoed around, with a hint of sadness. So the group sang along again, but it was completely wrong.
At the same time, the shadow of a ship gradually appeared in the field of vision. It was a lion-shaped pirate ship with an extremely beautiful appearance.
"Look, a boat has appeared. I hope they won't flee immediately this time. Maybe we can ask them for help and say hello to them first."
Spotting the silhouette of the ship in the thick fog, Brooke immediately ended this frustrating vocal exercise and turned the topic to the pirate ship that was slowly approaching not far away.
"I have a great idea, Mr. Nhat Hanh, let's welcome them with a chorus."
Hence, the terrifying singing heard on the Straw Hat ship.
The huge ghost ship slowly approached with a huge shadow. The two ships finally came close to each other, and both sides appeared in each other's field of vision. The deck height of Brooke's ship was more than twice as high as that of the Lion ship, and the two of them looked down at the crew members on the Lion ship.
"Look, the ghost ship has really appeared, and there seems to be someone on it."
New and strange existences can always ignite Luffy's endless desire for adventure. When he saw the skeleton that only appeared in his imagination, Luffy's eyes became as bright as stars, and the flame of adventure was already burning brightly.
"There are two ghosts on the boat. One is a skeleton in a dress, and the other is a zombie covered in bandages. They are waving to us." Luffy grabbed the edge of the boat and pointed to the opposite side excitedly and shouted to everyone.
"Did you see it? It's really skeletons and zombies singing. It's really great, hahahaha."
"Wait, wait, don't worry, Luffy." Sanji, who had a cigarette in his mouth, took a deep drag on the cigarette and reached out to stop Luffy who was about to act without authorization.
Zoro on the side took out a wooden stick and held the marked end in his hand. It seems Luffy is not the only one who is interested in zombies and skeletons.
"What are you doing?" The weakest trio consisting of Nami, Usopp, and Chopper looked at Zoro in surprise.
"Draw lots to decide who will go with Luffy, lest he be stupid and do something he shouldn't do, and everyone will be cursed." It's rare for a chef and a swordsman to have such a tacit understanding. Sanji, who only knows how to confront Zoro, said matter-of-factly.
"The two people who get the lottery are responsible for following Luffy. Remember to stop Luffy from doing anything he shouldn't do at critical moments."
"Why are you doing so much? Anyone who wants to go can just follow him." Usopp, who was afraid of being picked, yelled angrily at Zoro. His long nose even touched Zoro's cheek, expressing his feelings. Strong inner dissatisfaction.
"That's right, that's all."
"Let's do this." Nami and Chopper also gathered around Zoro, venting their dissatisfaction and accusing him of his bad idea.
"I know you are scared, but is this really okay?"
Pointing forward, Zoro turned the three people's attention to the side of the Thousand Sunny's ship. I saw Sanji, Franky and Robin standing next to Luffy, looking equally eager to try.
"Of course, if anyone who wants to go can go, that will definitely include me."
Simply throwing away the three people who were so frightened that they were hysterical, Zoro turned and walked towards the four people on the side of the ship, intending to join their adventure team.
"I smoke, I smoke, can't I just smoke now?"
"Don't be like this. Are you going to leave the three of us alone?"
"Take me there too, I need protection."
The desperate trio formed a chain and held on to Sauron's clothes, fearing that they would be the ones left in the end.
"I told you that if you want to go over there, I can do it alone. If you don't act quickly, the ship will drift away." Luffy, who had already lost his patience, said to Sanji who stopped him. He didn't care if If someone goes with him, he must go anyway.
"How is that possible? Let's draw lots quickly. The two people drawn will go with Luffy." Zoro, who was dragged by the trio, raised the wooden lot in his hand again and let them draw first.
"It's so unlucky, why is it me."
Nami, whose face was full of tears and almost desperate, complained in pain, so much so that Luffy and Sanji had already climbed onto the cable of the ghost ship and were still hiding alone in the boat complaining.
"Nami, aren't you looking forward to the treasure ship?" Luffy, who was climbing at the front, turned to encourage Nami, who was still on the boat and refused to move.
"What kind of treasure ship is this? You've seen it, right? There are moving skeletons and zombies covered in bandages. Compared to this kind of treasure ship of unknown origin, my life is more important."
Nami almost went berserk when she heard Luffy's irrelevant words.
"They must be a large number of treasure crew members guarding the ship, but they accidentally encountered a curse. In short, if you want the treasure, you must find them first."
Luffy, talking to himself, fantasized about the treasure he was about to get and continued climbing upwards, completely ignoring Nami's inner despair. Beauty novel "hongcha866" prestige public account, see more
