Chapter 700 Secret Passage Exploration
Vic's idea requires a large number of manpower, materials, supplies and long-distance transportation, all of which cannot be achieved without money. Even if everyone has the most devout revolutionary heart, they still need to eat, wear clothes and take weapons. Relying on human lives to pile up, grind and sacrifice? That's too cruel, and the revolutionary army doesn't have that many people to fill this big hole!
The two of them moved very quickly and arrived at the beach of Area 50 in a short time to wait. They did not take off their black robes. Doragdo acted in secret and was used to this outfit.
Vic really didn't want to expose himself. He didn't even put the two more conspicuous big swords, Xue Ku and Allen, on his waist, and he didn't use Life Return to suppress his height.
Now he looks about three meters tall, about the same as the three current admirals of the navy. If Vic had not rebelled against the navy, he would probably be one of them now. By then, he probably would not suppress his height anymore, otherwise he would always feel like he is shorter than others!
"hey-hey!"
"What are you laughing at? Why do you feel a little vulgar?"
"Nothing! Nothing! I just remembered something funny!"
While waiting, Vic released his Observation Haki. Tesoro had already led Bakara, who had removed the explosive collar, to area 50, and then he no longer paid attention to it.
After that, he used his Observation Haki to scan several other acquaintances he met at the auction. Blackbeard and Queen were no longer on the island. Katakuri and Brulee were already on the boat. Katakuri had a dejected look on her face, but Brulee was fine. Instead, she was comforting her brother. The one who really made Vic laugh was Rayleigh, the God of the Underworld!
Vic really didn't know what to say about Rayleigh. Was he old but still young at heart, or was he looking for a way to get young girls? Or was he trying to see if the abalone raised by the Celestial Dragons was top quality?
It's most likely the latter. Although Rayleigh is the right-hand man of the Pirate King, he probably rarely had the opportunity to eat Tenryu abalone in the past. Today, the beautiful Tenryuu is treating him, so the treatment is naturally different!
But is this one really the best Tianlong abalone? It may look fresh and tender on the outside, but it may be black and flabby on the inside, right?
And Rayleigh, don't you think about how old he is? He's over 70 years old. Can little Rayleigh still stand up steadily? He won't be trembling, right?
No! Little Rayleigh can no longer be called Little Rayleigh, after all, his master is an old man in his seventies. If Rayleigh had a son, he would be a generation older than Vic, so he should be called Dormant Rayleigh now. I just don’t know if he will wake up today? Can he walk a few steps after waking up?
Rayleigh's brother did wake up with the help of Rayleigh and Xialulia Palace, but the secret passage in Xialulia's house was not easy to walk through. The secret passage was muddy, tortuous, and not flat. Rayleigh's brother fell and fainted before he took two steps!
Xia Lulia turned around hurriedly and saw that Rayleigh's brother had fallen into sleep again. This made Xia Lulia feel embarrassed and angry, and she wondered in her heart, was her feeling at the auction just now wrong?
Just a glance at the secret passage in her house made her tremble, and the groundwater overflowed, and even flowed out through the cracks in the secret passage. Isn't this the power of that one glance?
Xia Lulia's eyes made Rayleigh feel a little embarrassed, so he forced his brother to wake up again. This time, he cheated when he walked into the secret passage from behind Xia Lulia. He wrapped a layer of armed color domineering around his brother!
The Armament Haki domineering of the vice-emperor level naturally allows his brothers to stand firmly. It doesn't matter even if his brothers are in hibernation again. As long as they have the layer of Armament Haki armor on their bodies, the brothers inside the armor will not exceed the range of the armor even if they are in hibernation.
The armor is still the same armor, and you can't see what's inside from the outside, just like there is no sword in the scabbard does not affect its appearance and shape. Rayleigh can completely use his armament domineering to support his brother's actions.
Moreover, in that dark secret passage, Xia Lulia could not find out what was going on inside the armor at all. As long as the armor still followed her, never leaving her and never getting too close or too far, she would be very happy and satisfied.
So she would encourage Rayleigh and his brothers from time to time, such as "Come on, try harder" and so on, but her voice was a little long and soft under the influence of certain emotions!
The secret passage is dark all year round, and it is normal that it is a bit slippery, so every step the Rayleigh brothers take must be down to earth, and Xia Lulia will also express her mood and feelings at the moment!
Anyway, her encouragement and feelings infected Rayleigh, making his blood boil, and even his dormant brother showed signs of waking up!
Rayleigh's armament color is not to be underestimated. Even at his age, it is still huge and long. Just covering his brother, let alone fighting for ten days and ten nights, five days and five nights is no problem. The consumption of covering it with armor is not enough for him to recover naturally.
So theoretically speaking, as long as Rayleigh's physical strength is fine, he can keep fighting. But the secret passage has an end. Even if the passage becomes more and more tortuous, more and more slippery, and more and more narrow, as long as he keeps walking firmly under the protection of the armor, he will eventually reach the end!
There is a secret door at the end of the secret passage that blocks the two from moving forward. Only someone as powerful as Rayleigh who can fight a protracted battle can eventually see this secret door. Otherwise, they will fall halfway and foam at the mouth on the muddy and slippery road.
However, Rayleigh controlled the powerful and domineering armor that wrapped his brother, and rammed the secret door violently for three minutes. The secret door at the end of the secret passage was finally opened by him, but the end of the secret passage of Xia Lulia's house was actually an underground river connected to the sea!
The surging river water poured down, fortunately Rayleigh reacted quickly and hugged Xia Lulia's body, preventing Xia Lulia from moving in the excitement.
However, Reilly's brothers in the secret passage suffered the consequences. They were drenched by the warm, salty sea water. The sea water filled the secret passage and flowed out from the entrance, almost drowning Reilly's brothers!
Rayleigh's brother was originally in a dormant state, and was supported in his movements by the armor transformed by Rayleigh's powerful domineering aura, so Rayleigh's brother did not foam at the mouth and was washed out of the secret passage by the salty sea water!
Anyway, no matter what, Xia Lulia must be satisfied. Finally someone can open the secret door in her secret passage and let out the sea water!
Rayleigh was able to save face. Although his brother was not doing well and was always in hibernation, he still restored his dignity with his own strong strength. Even though Xia Lulia was a little puzzled as to why his brother did not foam at the mouth after being drowned by the sea!
Rayleigh could only vaguely say that his brother was very strong, but this was not his limit. This made Xia Lulia even feel guilty. She only satisfied her own purpose of breaking the secret door of the sewer to release the water!
She didn't consider the feelings and physical condition of the old grandfather's brother in the secret passage of her house at all, and she didn't fulfill her duty as a good host to welcome the visitor to the secret passage!
But before she could say whether she wanted to explore the secret passage in her house again, the old man in front of her disappeared. She sat on the ground, hugged her chest and looked around, but still could not find the old man!
This made Xia Lulia very disappointed. She packed her clothes in a daze and left this relatively hidden alley. This experience was destined to be remembered by her for the rest of her life!
