Chapter 75: Wait for 1 year? (Seeking 5-star review)
"And then?"
Seeing that Captain Gel started to drink water tactically in the middle of his speech, Bia was very curious about what happened next and urged him impatiently.
Gel stretched out his hand and pinched Bi Ya's chubby face, and said with a smile:
"And then there was a curious kid like you who asked questions."
"The little girl asked: Who of you caught the bigger prey?"
"A seemingly simple question is actually very acute. Both of them are captains with the same status, so this question has risen to the level of a warrior's honor. Naturally, no one is willing to make concessions, so they both insist that the sea king they captured is bigger than the other's. The two sides have been deadlocked, and finally they can only initiate a sacred duel to prove whose prey is bigger! And because the two have almost the same strength, they have been fighting until now without a clear winner."
After saying this, Gel spread his hands helplessly.
"Ah...this."
"I didn't expect that this long-lasting war of the century would be caused by something like this!"
Funi sighed.
Biya covered her mouth in surprise. She didn't expect that a simple question from a little girl would cause the two giants to fight for decades. She secretly decided in her heart that she must not ask a million questions like usual when chatting with the giants in the future, in case she accidentally triggered their life-and-death duel.
...
Gel always felt that he seemed to have missed some important details about the adventure in the small garden, but since he couldn't remember it for the moment, he didn't worry about it anymore.
\"BOOM!\"
Another loud noise came.
After Donli and Brocki hit each other hard in the face with their shields, they fell to the ground almost at the same time. Both of them were panting and covered with wounds and could not get up to continue fighting.
"It looks like the battle is over!"
Gel stood up, brushed the dust off his butt, and walked towards the center of the battlefield.
"Kababababa~"
"Quack, quack, quack~"
Dongli and Brockie laughed at the same time, and then they both pronounced the result of this sacred duel:
"The second duel! It's still a draw!"
"Kababababa~"
"Quack, quack, quack~"
After saying this, the two of them burst into laughter again, and their hearty laughter spread throughout the entire island.
They were clearly fighting to the death for honor, but both sides seemed very satisfied with the result of a draw. They no longer looked like they wanted to kill each other as in the previous fight. Instead, they were like a pair of good brothers.
After lying on the ground and resting for a while, the two men regained some strength and slowly got up from the ground.
"Hey Dongli, there are some guests at my house, and they brought me the best beer! You should come and have a few drinks too!"
Brockie dusted himself off and invited enthusiastically.
"Oh? Really? That's great. I haven't had a drink in more than ten years! I really miss it. But it's not good to go empty-handed. Wait for me. I'm going to catch a delicious plesiosaur first."
When he heard that there was wine, and thought about how enjoyable it would be to sit down and drink and eat meat after a big battle, Dong Li couldn't wait to pick up his big sword and go hunting.
"Tsk! Triceratops meat is the most delicious!"
Brockie retorted.
"What did you say? You idiot, how could Triceratops meat be compared to the delicious Plesiosaur meat?"
"No, no, no! Triceratops meat is the most delicious meat on this island!"
The two were about to start fighting again, but luckily Geer arrived in time and after hearing their conversation, he spoke up to persuade them:
"You don't have to go hunting, my friends. We won't be eating dinosaur meat at tonight's banquet. I'll treat you two to a different meal!"
The two followed the sound and looked down.
"Ka-ba-ba-ba, Donli, these are my friends."
After seeing who was coming, Broki introduced him happily, and Dongli on the side also greeted him in a friendly manner.
"Hello, it's been a long time since we had any guests."
Gel was a little disapproving. It was not that no one came to this island. Everyone who chose this route had to pass through here. The nickname of the Little Garden had long been spread on the sea.
The pirates all know that there are not only a lot of ferocious predators like dinosaurs and tigers and leopards from the ancient times, but also two giant captains whose bounties exceeded 2 million decades ago. You know, anyone with a bounty of 3- million just coming out of the four seas can be called a supernova. Under normal circumstances, pirates with a little common sense would not dare to land on this ancient island. Most of them would choose to wait on the small islands and reefs outside the island until the recording pointer records the magnetic field of the next island and then quietly go to the next stop.
...
"Yum! So delicious!"
"What a treat!"
At the banquet, Dongli and Brockie devoured the delicious dishes prepared by Chef Fate and poured beer into their mouths bucket by bucket. They hadn't lived so happily in decades.
“Gudong gudong~ah~so cool!”
"Ha ha ha, I haven't drunk so happily in a long time!"
In a short while, the two of them finished all the dozen barrels of craft beer that Gel brought out. Dongli and Brocki licked the beer foam stuck on their beards with their tongues, feeling unsatisfied.
Two more drunks.
Captain Gel shook his head helplessly and smiled, then generously took out more than twenty barrels of wine.
Today, I must let them both drink enough.
Seeing so much beer again, the two straightforward giants were very happy. The beer was quickly drunk and their relationship quickly heated up. Dongli and Brockie kept calling each other "brother" and they were about to join Gel in the small garden to become sworn brothers.
"Ka-pa-pa-pa-pa~ My dear friends! You can stay here for a while without worry. Just set up camp next to me. The dinosaurs and wild beasts on the island won't dare to come near here!"
Broki, who was enjoying the drink, took on a lot of responsibility.
"Thanks, brother. We have to wait until the record pointer is finished before we can leave. By the way, how many days will it take for the record pointer of this island to finish recording?"
Ger asked while sitting on a rock with his legs crossed and drinking juice.
“Quack, quack, quack. This island only needs one year.”
Dong Li raised his head and drank another bucket of wine, then answered with a smile.
"What? It'll take a year!"
Everyone was shocked.
"puff!"
Even Captain Gel, who was usually calm, spat out all the juice in his mouth when he heard this.
He finally remembered which key point he had missed:
In the original work, the Straw Hat Pirates were able to go to the next stop in advance because they stole the pointer from the Baroque Studio, but it would take a year to complete the recording of the ordinary pointer on this island!
How could I have forgotten about this!
Gel went crazy and instantly turned into a crazy head-scratching monster.
After a long while, Geer comforted himself:
Forget it, there's no point in worrying. I'll just patrol around the island next time to see if there are any pirates hiding and waiting for the pointer to record the magnetic field.
If you are lucky, you can just grab a pointer that has already been recorded, right?
If it really doesn't work, the worst that can happen is to force your way out to sea, and use your observation Haki to randomly find the next island on the sea. Anyway, you have your own system mall, so you don't have to worry about not being able to find an island for a long time and running out of water and food! It just takes a little time.
Thinking of this, Gel silently gave himself a thumbs up for his intelligence.
