Chapter 542: A Different World Thunder God Island
Vic did not confess his relationship with Dragon to Vegapunk. Naturally, he had his considerations and tests behind this. The fewer people who knew about this relationship, the better. As long as Vic knew Vegapunk's position, it would be fine!
"I can sense that this is what you really think. Go ahead! I'm busy!"
Vegapunk smiled and quickly restrained his expression, then waved his hand to send him away, but Vic already knew the answer in his heart, so he turned around and left the laboratory without saying anything.
After Vic returned, he said goodbye to Rebecca and the others, then took the recording pointer and Vegapunk's life paper and left Punk Hazard.
Now that he has told Vegapunk about his idea, he has nothing else to do on the island, so Wick plans to go to Thunder God Island to check out the situation. Will this island with constant lightning help him develop the ability of the Thunder Fruit?
He was a little curious and wanted to experience it for himself. If there were enemies on the Punk Hazard side that Rebecca and the others could not deal with, they would contact him. With Vic's speed and such a short distance, he would be able to get back quickly, so Vic left with peace of mind.
Vic followed the guidance of the recording pointer and it didn't take long for him to see the island where white lightning rained down. He could feel the violent energy from afar.
The dark clouds in the sky covered the entire nearby sea area. The area where the island was located was always in darkness, and only the pouring lightning could illuminate the surrounding environment.
The continuous thunder and lightning seemed to be saying, 'No one is welcome here. This is Lightning's big stage. Come here if you miss!'
As one of the three islands at the beginning of the New World, this is probably the place least visited by people. Many pirates will probably change their course when they come here. Anyway, the record pointers of the New World all point to the three islands, so changing it will not affect the continued voyage.
Here, if you go to the island, you will definitely be struck by lightning. The pirates who have just arrived in the New World don’t even have Haki, so no matter how strong their bodies are, they will be struck silly. Even if they have Armament Haki to resist, it will not be a long-term solution.
Therefore, it is extremely difficult to stay on this island, but for Vic, the user of the Thunder Fruit, it is like a fish entering the sea. After Vic arrived, he did not stay. He put away the recording pointer and flashed to the island.
When Vic stepped on solid ground, he felt something unusual. The island under his feet was as hard as iron. There was no soil at all. There were rugged black rocks all around, and no two rocks were the same.
The ground here has experienced countless lightning bombardments and is no longer an ordinary stone. Even swords and knives have difficulty in striking it. As soon as Vic stood still, white lightning struck him. Vic did not dodge nor did he passively transform into an element. Instead, he relied on his body to withstand the lightning.
Vic felt okay, as he could still hold on with his physical strength. However, for a pirate who had just arrived in the New World and had a bounty of hundreds of millions, it was very difficult. He would definitely not be able to bear it if the situation lasted any longer.
Vic did not stop, but walked towards the island while observing his surroundings. As he went deeper, Vic felt the lightning striking him getting stronger and stronger. He could choose to transform into an element to avoid it, but Vic chose to use armed color to resist.
Bolts of lightning fell on his body like raindrops, emitting bursts of green smoke. With the protection of the armed color, Vic did not feel any pain, but he could feel that the speed at which his domineering aura was dissipating was faster, with a similar effect to the void lightning produced by the magic wand.
But for Vic now, the void lightning produced by the magic staff is not as helpful to him as before, and is not as good as the confrontation between domineering powers. Therefore, Vic has not used the magic staff to practice domineering power for a long time.
Although Vic is the user of the Thunder Fruit, he doesn't have any special feeling about the thunder and lightning here. It seems to be similar to the thunder and lightning produced on a rainy day, but for some unknown reason, the thunderclouds in the sky never dissipate and are constantly colliding to produce thunder and lightning.
Just like the nuclear fusion in the sun, it is always occurring on a large scale to generate light and heat. This is also a place where one can cultivate one's domineering power. It is not far from Punk Hazard. Vic has already planned to let Rebecca and the others take turns to come here to practice.
Vic did not continue to observe the environment on the island. It was all similar black stones, but they were scattered around and there was no flat ground. Vic, with armed color domineering wrapped around his body, continued to go deeper into the center of the island.
He only felt that the lightning striking his body was getting stronger and stronger, and his domineering aura was being consumed faster. Vic guessed that the lightning in the center area might be even stronger, and he didn't know how much of his domineering aura would be consumed, so he quickened his pace.
After walking for nearly five kilometers under the lightning, Vic finally saw a different scenery. The lightning in front of him was different. To be precise, the color of the lightning was different. The lightning in front was light blue and more dense.
Vic stood at the junction, where there was a mine-free area about one meter wide. In front of him was a light blue minefield, and behind him was a white minefield. The ground color of the mine-free zone was different from that of the minefields in front and behind. It was obvious that there was not occasional absence of lightning here, but that there had never been lightning striking here.
"Could this be the place where the 49th of the 50th Heavenly Dao escaped? To leave a glimmer of hope for those who enter? But this is a five-kilometer minefield outside! How many people can survive here? The chance of survival is too small!"
Standing in the mine-free area, Vic said secretly that there was some humanity on this island but not much. It was estimated that those who had landed on this island had not come here. It was not because they were not powerful enough to get here, but because they were stupid enough to walk to the center of the island!
Five kilometers away! And the lightning is getting stronger and stronger. Who would be so stupid as to stick to this place? Of course, the pirate world is not an ordinary world. There are many stupid people in this world. This lightning-free area is really necessary. Maybe it can really save a few fools.
Vic continued forward and entered the light blue lightning area. As soon as he entered, he stopped because the light blue lightning that struck his body was much stronger than the previous white lightning. A few lightning strikes consumed a lot of his domineering power.
Vic did not stop any longer and quickened his pace to move forward. It was not that he did not want to use the Six-style Razor to travel faster, but when he tried to use it just now, he was struck by lightning and stopped.
The lightning on this island seemed to be tracking, ensuring that lightning would strike anyone entering at any time, and it was impossible to avoid it by relying on extreme luck or speed.
Vic moved forward, and the same feeling came again. The deeper he went, the stronger the power of the lightning became, and every strike on his body would cause Vic's speed to pause briefly.
If someone was standing nearby, they would be able to see that Vic's body seemed to be stuck in a stuttering manner, and the color of the lightning gradually darkened as one went deeper, from light blue to blue, and then to dark blue.
