Chapter 135
In the back garden of the palace, Shiki was lying on a beach chair with his arms and legs spread out, sleeping.
Since escaping from Impel Down, Shiki has hardly done any exercise, and all his so-called"grand plans" are pinned on research.
This line of thought is simply like... No, he is a real idiot. After all, there is a rudder stuck on his head. He is an idiot in every sense of the word.
In Shiki's dream, he returned to the naval battle twenty years ago. He was in an absolute upper hand, but the storm appeared again, but the sound of thunder sounded a bit like fart.
The sense of incongruity woke Shiki up, and before he could recall the scene in his dream, he heard a"puff" sound approaching.
Shiki's head lowered little by little with the sound, as if he was hit by a hammer again and again, and finally he couldn't help but roared:
"Indigo, can you change the sound of your footsteps?"
This man is none other than Dr. Indigo, the scientist of the Flying Pirates, the person in charge of scientific research in recent years. At this moment, he is using various movements and gestures to make gestures. Shiki can actually understand, but once he uses his brain to think too much, he will have a splitting headache. Now is his rest time, and he doesn't want to suffer this.
"what do you want to say in the end?"
"The two people I mentioned during the day are nearby." Indigo suddenly spoke.
Shiqi made a surprised expression:"You can speak!"
Because the perverted gorilla was not around, he did not pose. Indigo continued to explain the situation:
"According to surveillance, the other party came on a group of news birds, and it seems that they will land on our current central island."
"Newsbird? Interesting, have you figured out the other party's identity?" Shi Ji became a little interested.
Indigo shook his head:"It was too dark, I couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly."
Shi Ji didn't bother to think about it, and gave the order directly:
"Let them land in STRONG WORLD. There is about half a month left before the plan is executed. If they are able to break through, they will be accepted as our subordinates."
Zhang Lie and Bruno circled in the air for several times. Every time they tried to get close to the palace area, they were shot. Apart from that, there was no interference.
This situation was obvious, and Zhang Lie understood what the other party meant. He could come down, but they could break through from the outside.
Because of the smell of Daft Green trees, the news birds couldn't get close, so Zhang Lie had to let them go, and he and Bruno stepped on the moon step to rush over.
Zhang Lie did not land near the trees, because he knew that the smell emitted by these trees was poisonous, so he chose the other end and planned to act until dawn.
And he also wanted to try whether these giant animals could bring benefits, because they can also be regarded as the research results and biological weapons of the Flying Pirates.
They found a relatively open place, which was relatively remote. Zhang Lie couldn't tell the directions. Anyway, there was no danger, so he used it as a place to spend the night.
"Let's stay here overnight."
Bruno was worried about the surroundings and suggested,"I'll keep watch, Captain, you take a good rest and recover your fighting strength."
"No need."Zhang Lie waved his hand,"Don't worry, I've sensed the surroundings, there's no danger, and even if there's a threat approaching, I can sense it."
Bruno also knew about the observation Haki. Since the captain had said it, he naturally wouldn't raise any objections.
The two slept like this for a whole night. Although the various roars were a bit noisy, they were all far away and did not affect their rest too much.
When they woke up the next day, it was already noon. Zhang Lie didn't have any morning wash, so he just found a stream to wash his face.
The cold water stimulated his brain to wake up, and then he immediately sensed something and looked at a huge piece of wood in the water.
His perception is divided into two types, one is an instinctive warning of danger, and the other is autonomous perception based on perception.
Zhang Lie didn't sense it before he woke up, which means that this thing posed no threat to him.
"Is this a crocodile? This must be a crocodile, right?"Zhang Lie looked at Bruno beside him in disbelief,"How did this crocodile fit into this stream?"
It's no wonder Zhang Lie didn't believe it. Judging from its size, the crocodile's length can reach more than ten times its normal size, almost filling up the stream. However, it was different on Barbaro Island where they landed before. Although its size also increased, it was usually twice the size, and the largest was no more than three times.
This shows that this is the source. Barbaro Island was just close at the beginning, and perhaps some of the crocodiles were carrying‘IQ’The seeds of plants with certain ingredients drifted over.
As for the distance of more than 500 kilometers, Shi Ji was not a fool. After the island was raised to the sky, it must have been moved. If it weren't for Zhang Lie's prophetic attribute, he would never have found this place.
Just as the two were discussing how the crocodile entered the stream, the crocodile finally floated to the shore, suddenly emerged from the water, opened its huge mouth and bit the two.
Bruno immediately posed in the Lanjiao posture and reminded:
"Crocodiles are ferocious beasts. They must be strong with their size. Captain, you are young.…"
"What did you say?"Zhang Lie kicked the crocodile away and looked at Bruno with a questioning look on his face.
""Nothing...nothing."
Zhang Lie immediately ignored him, stepped hard, jumped to the top of the crocodile's head, grabbed the Ghost Cut, and slashed the crocodile's forehead with a sword.
The brain was destroyed, and the crocodile died on the spot. Zhang Lie stood on the crocodile's body and opened the panel to check. There was no new kill record on it.
"Alas, I thought too much. After all, they are just animals. Even if they are controlled, they cannot be considered pirates.
Bruno jumped over and asked about the next plan:"Captain, what should we do next?"
"Next, it's up to you." Zhang Lie grabbed the giant crocodile and threw it onto the shore, then pulled out Ghost Cut and handed it to Bruno.
"Let's eat first. I need a cook now."
"…Got it."
Bruno is indeed very professional. Ever since Zhang Lie assigned him the position of chef, he has brought all kinds of fire-making equipment, kitchen utensils and seasonings with him.
Even when he came to this floating island this time, he brought a frying pan and spatula with him, which he used at this moment to make a meal of fried crocodile meat.
However, these are all preparations before the action, the purpose is to replenish the energy consumed by rushing yesterday. Zhang Lie knows that there will be a series of battles next, and he dare not be careless.
"Bruno, don't use your ability. It's for Shiki. The battle ahead will all rely on physical skills."
"Physical skills? No problem, I'm a former CP9 member after all, so my physical skills are not bad."
Zhang Lie found a high ground, and after seven or eight battles, he reached the top. After identifying the location of Shiqi's palace, the two jumped down from the top of the mountain.
"Captain, don't we use the Moon Walk to get there? There are too many giant beasts on the road."The battles just now made Bruno's scalp numb.
"No, we have to fight back. The enemy must know that we can do the Moon Step, and they asked us to come here, obviously wanting us to fight back with our strength, so that we can gain Shi Ji's trust."
In terms of common sense, his inference was correct, but this time he was wrong because the enemy was a moron.
