Chapter 769 Sanji (4)
"What's happening here……"
Nami, who had just returned in the early morning, crossed her arms and looked at her companions lying on the ground.
Her eyes scanned the room before settling on two figures lying together.
Sanji was lying on the floor carelessly, with Yunci curled up next to him, using Sanji's arm as a pillow.
"Hey, listen to me—"
Luffy popped Usopp's snot bubble with one finger.
With a 'pop' sound, several people who were sleeping were woken up.
Zoro was the first to open his eyes: "Why, it's already morning."
Sanji sat up slowly, then paused when he felt the weight on his arm.
He turned his head and looked at Yun Ci with a frown. His long eyelashes fluttered twice and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Its daybreak?"
Yun Ci yawned and sat up with her hands on the ground.
"Nami, the kitchen has left food for you."
"Thank you, then—"
The sound of hurriedly approaching footsteps interrupted Nami's words.
The door was thrown open violently, and an islander stood at the door, panting.
"Oh no! Village Chief Bogudan, where is Abisi?"
Several people looked at him in surprise.
"what happened?"
"Ah, you are pirates, right? The navy's fleet has begun to blockade the port."
"Is it to catch Abis..."
Usopp didn't understand why he was chasing after a girl like this?
But all these doubts turned into surprise when Nami and the others took them to see the Millennium Dragon.
"Thousand, Thousand Year Dragon!"
"If you get close to the Grand Line, you'll find even this kind of thing."
"Even the sea kings have them, so this is nothing."
Yun Ci stood beside Long Ye and raised her hand to gently stroke its head.
“It’s very old.”
It is difficult for a Millennium Dragon at this age to fly again.
After discussion, the group began to prepare a cart to carry it down the mountain.
Luffy, Sanji and Zoro teamed up to chop down trees, and after a few moves, a large number of them fell down.
Usopp then took over, and with the help of his companions, he made the tree trunk into a huge cart.
Usopp and Zoro went together to drive the Merry to a suitable location. Luffy and Sanji carried Dragon Lord onto the cart. Yun Ci jumped a few times and stood high on the tree, and spoke to Nami and Abis who were surrounding Dragon Lord below.
"The navy is going up the mountain."
It's only a matter of time before they find their way here.
Nami put her hands on her eyes and said, "Usopp and the others haven't come yet. Well, but with Luffy and Sanji here, it's okay."
Yun Ci jumped down and landed steadily beside Nami.
She lifted her long skirt, the red hem flying, and pulled out the dagger tied to her thigh.
"I also have a certain fighting ability."
Sanji took a step forward, standing in front of Yunci, and met the eyes of the appearing marine.
"This kind of thing doesn't require the help of a beautiful lady, just leave it to us!"
*
The huge cart slid down from a great height at lightning speed.
Several people got on the cart together and headed straight for the sea.
The whistling wind blew hair and clothes, accompanied by bursts of joyful cheers from the crowd.
As for the naval ship blocking the road...what was that? It didn't play any role in blocking the way.
The cart was tied to the Merry with ropes. Everything was ready, but they didn't know in which direction the Lost Island was.
but--
"Well, we can only walk around and see for now."
start sailing!
Yun Ci leaned on the railing, tidying up her long hair that was messed up by the wind.
While Sanji was busy preparing a late breakfast in the kitchen, the others were squatting at the stern, trying to get the direction of the Lost Island from the somewhat demented Long Ye.
Suddenly, fish jumped out of the sea, one after another.
Abis and Sanji brought out fried rice together. Luffy, who was standing on the cart, happily reached out to take it, but then let go due to the burn, and the whole pot of boiling fried rice fell all over Long Ye's head.
This smash reminded Long Ye of the location of the Lost Island.
East of Gunkanjima.
"The Lost Island is over there!"
"Mr. Long said he remembered it!"
Now that you have a destination, you can let go and sail.
Everyone on the ship took action, changed course, and headed straight to the east of Gunkanjima.
The previous pot of rice was ruined, so Sanji prepared a new meal and everyone took turns eating.
"Ok?"
"Ship?"
"But something doesn't seem right."
The mirror-like thing on the water surface reflected everyone's faces.
The group watched in horror as the pirate ship was slowly swallowed up, and their screams alarmed Sanji and Zoro who were washing dishes in the kitchen.
The two ran out quickly, but it was too late.
Most of the Merry had been swallowed up.
Yun Ci stood at the edge of the 'mirror', and her vision was quickly covered by thick fog.
I can't see anything around me.
"Miss Yunci!"
Yun Ci's wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone.
She turned back in surprise: "Mr. Sanji? Don't worry."
Yun Ci patted the back of Sanji's hand soothingly and watched the lightning and thunder suddenly appear in the sky.
The rope connecting to Long Ye's cart at the stern suddenly slipped, and Zoro and Luffy tried to hold it together, and fortunately they managed to get out of the stormy sea.
After sailing out of that area, the surrounding weather suddenly returned to blue sky and white clouds, but the stormy sea area still existed outside this sea area.
The sea area covered by dark clouds formed a huge circle, surrounding the island in the sea.
Hidden tightly.
"This is... the Lost Island."
The island looks a bit shabby because it has not been inhabited by humans for a long time and the remaining buildings on the island are all covered by vegetation.
But because of Lord Long’s sudden silence, everyone couldn’t be sure whether this was a dragon’s lair, so they could only push the cart to the top of the island to check.
Yun Ci actually couldn't remember what happened here.
She only remembered that the dragon's lair was related to Gunkanjima.
Yun Ci asked Xiao Ai to help check the plot points, and she followed the cart and walked towards the top of the mountain.
There is a wall with a dragon painted on it at the top of the mountain, but there is no keyhole on it, so it is not certain that this is the door.
Abis looked at the painting of the dragon and raised her hand to grasp the dragon claw hanging around her neck.
"Could it be that……"
Abis nodded solemnly.
However, her height was not enough to reach the gap in the dragon's claws.
When Luffy tried to release it, the ground shook violently.
Everyone felt empty under their feet and fell downwards.
Yun Ci quickly grabbed Nami, who was closest to her, and used her telekinesis to build a colorless platform under her feet.
"!"
Nami knelt on the platform.
"This is……"
“My skills.”
The platform slowly floated downwards until it landed on the ground with the three people on it and disappeared.
The others fell to the ground in a mess, and even Lord Long had his eyes wide open, looking dazed.
Nami put her hands on her hips and began to look around the underground space.
This building looks a bit like a tower, it is very tall, with many tree roots and branches entangled inside.
They looked up at the dome on top of the building, which was painted with many dragon-related pictures.
but.
Although there are so many dragon-related things.
This is not a dragon's lair.
