Chapter 983 A Day Repeated Forever
The crows flew very fast, and it took almost three days and three nights for the two men to finally reach the outer area of the Kingdom of Lulucia after flying in the air without eating or drinking.
Shisui and Zoro didn't expect that they arrived a little late. There was a force that arrived at the scene faster than them, and the other side was wearing a uniform black and white uniform.
After Zoro was blown away in the Celestial Dragon incident in the Sabaody Archipelago, he only cared about his captain and knew very little new information about the outside world.
"It's clear that they are from the Black Order. They sent two people, and we also have two people. There is still the possibility of cooperation."
"Is the Black Order an organization of the World Government? I've been at sea for a long time and have never heard of it..." Facing Zoro's questioning face, Shisui couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
Like this swordsman who loves to get lost, let me explain the responsibilities of the Black Order. The most basic fighting force is the exorcist that can be encountered frequently, and above the exorcist is the exorcist marshal.
There are only four exorcist marshals, and they usually do not go out, but stay in the branch churches around the world.
It is said that there is a central church above the branch. Shisui has never come into contact with this level. In principle, it is better to avoid provoking a group of fanatical believers who believe in God.
"Hello, it seems we are not acting alone this time."
A young man with red hair and an eye patch took the initiative to greet Shisui and Zoro. He was the Rabbi who appeared on the sky curtain and liked to use a hammer.
Compared to the rabbi who was extremely enthusiastic towards people and things, his partner with the knife this time was a well-known cold person in the sect.
The iconic waist-length black straight hair is usually tied into a high ponytail with a red hair tie. When it falls, the ends of the hair are slightly jagged to add a sharp look.
She has long bangs on the left side that slightly cover her eyebrows, and a red lotus-shaped hair accessory is pinned behind her right ear. She has slender dark blue eyes (indigo in the animation) that are as cold as a knife, revealing an expression of impatience and contempt.
"Rabbi, don't talk to strangers. You can only trust your own people for this exorcism mission."
Character Notes: Exorcist - Kanda Yu
The two exorcists have completely opposite personalities, one is cold and the other is hot. If these two people are put together to fight, will there really be no internal strife?
Shisui stated his purpose directly and didn't want to waste time with the exorcist. This time, the four of them would work together to find the evil force that wanted to open the passage to hell.
Pull these bastards out of the Kingdom of Lulucia and kill them all. As long as the hell passage does not complete the communication at the last second, everything can be saved.
The rabbi retracted the smile on his face and handed a dozen newspapers to Shisui, asking him to read the contents of the newspapers. The situation was developing in a direction that no one expected.
Shisui has collaborated with the Black Order several times, and Rabbi has met the man who doesn't like to open his eyes several times, and they are quite familiar with each other.
After all, exorcists have limited manpower. If they can seek help from the outside world, it will greatly reduce the casualties of exorcists and reduce unnecessary misunderstandings.
Some open-minded exorcists are willing to cooperate with the forces at sea, occasionally showing some goodwill and expressing the specific demands of the Black Cult. A group of religious believers have no intention of competing for hegemony.
Shisui took the newspaper and could clearly see an area circled in red. The layout of more than a dozen newspapers was similar, and the content of the recruitment advertisements was exactly the same.
This is an advertisement from a liquor wholesaler that is wholesale liquor to the outside world. The princess of the Kingdom of Lulucia is about to get married, so a large amount of liquor needs to be stored in advance to cope with the upcoming liquor consumption.
The newspapers published by Morgans all have dates, and the dozen or so newspapers in Shisui's hand are actually not from the same day.
Is the business of liquor wholesalers so good? So rich that they advertise in newspapers day after day. Shisui didn't see anything unusual at first.
I thought it was just a prank by rich people who had too much money to spend and wanted to find a sense of existence in the newspaper.
"We have received information that the advertisements placed by the liquor wholesalers have been running for at least three months. During this period, some merchants have taken up the advertisements and contacted us. However, every time a ship loaded with liquor arrives, it is unable to penetrate the Kingdom of Lulucia."
At the beginning, liquor wholesalers had to purchase a shipload of liquor from outside the island before September.
It is already December, and hundreds of businesses that have seen this advertisement have contacted the liquor wholesaler. Each time, the wholesaler said they would deliver a shipload of liquor before September.
As a result, every ship loaded with wine can only dock at the port, and the stevedores cannot bring the wine into the royal city, as if there is an invisible barrier separating the real world from the royal city.
"That is to say, the time in the royal city has always stayed before September, and a certain day in August has been repeated over and over again. There is something wrong with the time here."
Shisui connected the dots and figured things out. Now he didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. If the time in the royal city had always stopped at a certain day, could it be the work of those evil forces?
But doing so is a waste of effort. The same thing has been repeated every day for more than three months. Could it be that the evil forces are trying by trial and error and have not yet figured out how to open the passage to hell?
The members of the Black Cult's Exploration Team tried various methods to enter the royal city, but they all got the same result in the end: they entered one second and were sent out the next second.
Ordinary people are powerless and can only rely on exorcists to do the preliminary investigation work. Rabbi and Kanda Yu want to find out what happened in the royal city.
Rabbi and Kanda Yu's team were the first to enter the royal city. The ice member of the team did not trust outsiders. In order to prevent the exorcists from falling out, they could not invite outsiders to join the team.
"Zoro, let's go in too, and be ready to fight at any time." Shisui opened one of his eyes, and the Mangekyō Sharingan appeared in his pupil. He would use his true skills when facing an unknown master of illusion.
Zoro nodded, placed his hand on the hilt of the sword, followed Uchiha Shisui, and stepped into the royal city of the Kingdom of Lulucia.
The four people went in one after another, as if passing through a layer of transparent film. After entering, they never came out again. The mechanism of forced retreat was not triggered, which made the reconnaissance team hiding in the dark marvel.
"As expected, we little guys are useless at the critical moment."
"Speak softly, someone is coming"
A clear whistle sounded in the distance, and a naval warship suddenly broke into the sea area and docked in the waters outside the Kingdom of Lulucia.
The navy was still able to take action this time. After Admiral Kizaru reported to his superiors, the Navy Marshal immediately sent a navy admiral to join the chaos.
Green Bull General Aramaki stood on the deck of the warship, overlooking the Kingdom of Lulucia where time had stopped.
As the admiral with the strongest ability to survive, even if he encounters an unbeatable opponent, Huangmu can escape with ease. He is not afraid of death at all.
