Ghost Shark, but in the world of One Piece

Page 39

Newly promoted Brigadier General, BrinBrin.

"Yes, I am truly ashamed. If it weren't for the support of the Black Prison Fleet, we would have been completely wiped out long ago." Raleigh lowered his head apologetically.

"It's good that you're alive." Brin patted Raleigh's shoulder reassuringly, then turned her head and bowed to Specter.

"Thank you. Thanks to the Black Prison Fleet's assistance, my beloved subordinates were able to return alive. I will forever remember this great kindness."

"It's nothing, we just happened to be passing by and did this as a matter of convenience, replenishing our supplies along the way." Tina had a good impression of this brigadier general who cared for his subordinates.

After crossing the Calm Belt, the Black Prison Fleet faced a shortage of supplies, and the meager supplies they received at Baratie were simply insufficient.

Take whatever you want!

BrinBrin waved his hand generously and laughed, "You are Raleigh's saviors, so take whatever supplies you need."

Considering that resupply would take an afternoon, he glanced at the Black Prison Fleet's formation and suggested:

"If you ladies are bored, I recommend a trip to nearby Maisui Island. It's not only the granary of the East China Sea, but also a famous resort. I heard they've recently started a photo opportunity in the flower fields."

"Wheat Island?"

Upon hearing this, Tina lowered her head and pondered for a moment. Then, she looked at the trio beside the sofa and, seeing their excited expressions, asked, "Do you want to go?"

“Okay.” Laurentina and the others nodded.

“Then you guys go ahead.” Tina picked up a Pocky stick, crossed her legs, and said, “I still need to talk to Brigadier General Brinbrin about the situation in the East Blue.”

With permission granted, an excited Alice immediately pulled the two out of the office. Before leaving, she could still hear voices coming from inside.

Has anything unusual happened recently?

"In the past few months, some islands in the East Blue have mysteriously disappeared, but they are all small islands. Secondly, a naval squad went missing in the Cocoyasi Sea, but Captain Rat of the 16th Branch sent word that they encountered the Krieg Pirates..."

Ignoring the conversation inside, Laurentina and her two companions boarded a round-trip passenger ship and soon arrived at Wheat Ear Island.

This is...

On this island where spring lasts all year round, the golden rapeseed flowers adorn the entire island with splendor. Beyond the flower fields lies a beautiful and romantic cherry blossom path, where the sea breeze carries a cool coolness and a faint floral fragrance.

Most of the tourists are couples, dressed in wedding gowns. Standing under the trees with fallen cherry blossoms, they are a beautiful sight. The cherry blossoms fall on their white dresses, and every time they press the shutter of a Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter), they capture a stunning moment.

Maihui Island, the granary of the East China Sea, is also the largest tourist destination in the East China Sea.

Visit scenic spots.

The island's developers came from the Drum Kingdom on the Grand Line. Since the Doctor Hunting Incident two years ago, many people have moved to this island.

The three women, dressed casually, attracted the attention of tourists as soon as they entered the island, mainly because they were all so beautiful, especially Laurentina in the middle.

However, Laurentina and her two companions did not care. They walked through the rapeseed fields and strolled along the cherry blossom path. What appeared in front of them was a stone path decorated with lanterns, with low wooden buildings clustered on both sides of the path.

It looks like the Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka streets from an anime.

The food stalls on the street were very popular, with tourists lining up in long queues.

Alice dragged the group on a shopping spree. The naval lieutenant's monthly salary was 200,000 Berries, so there was no need to look at the prices when buying things here.

Having completely escaped the debt crisis, Alice has once again unleashed a frenzy of revenge spending.

"Hmm, this taiyaki is pretty good!"

"Ah, Laurentina, you must try the donburi at this restaurant!"

Alice smiled and reached out to feed Ghost Shark a red bean glutinous rice ball. Not to be outdone, Ain stuffed a daifuku mochi into Ghost Shark's mouth. The two women were secretly competing. Alice pouted and said that the glutinous rice ball was better than the daifuku. Ain got a little anxious and stuffed one into Alice's mouth as well.

......

On the other side of Ishizaka Street, a man with a ship's wheel stuck in his hair, standing on two swords, and laughing loudly while chewing on a cigar:

"Let's take this island; there should be enough food there."

Splatter splatter...

A man with a deathly pale face was wearing a white overcoat and made a sound like he was farting when he walked.

"Kale-kale, Lord Shiki, the takoyaki here is delicious."

After saying that, Indigo handed a copy to Shiki.

Snapped!

"Did we come here to eat?"

The Golden Lion slapped Indigo on the back of the head, almost making him choke on his food, and then tried one himself.

Mmm~ Delicious!

The golden lion cupped its chubby cheeks with both hands, radiating a blissful expression.

Snapped!

"I told you it was delicious!"

Indigo retaliated without hesitation.

After the two finished their snacks, the golden lion crossed his arms and closed his eyes.

The next moment, a tremor resounded throughout the entire island.

"What's going on? Is there an earthquake?"

Laurentina and the others barely managed to maintain their balance, and then she froze instantly.

"Hey, hey, hey, are you kidding me?"

The sea level in the distance was getting lower and lower.

In contrast, many birds fell to the ground.

This is a rapid ascent; the island is taking off!

It wasn't an earthquake at all!

In the blink of an eye, Wheat Ear Island broke through the clouds, and the Qinghai Lake below disappeared! They had gone to heaven!

Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Golden Lion, I Will March Forward!

Is this 10,000 meters above the ground?!

The tourists on Maisui Island were shivering with cold, and looking down at the endless Qinghai Lake, they were all ashen-faced with fear.

The unreal sensation made their legs go weak, and they collapsed onto the stone path.

"Gods, who can save us?!"

The threat of death loomed over the tourists in an instant, like a dark cloud, making it hard for everyone to breathe.

People wandered aimlessly through the streets, descending into chaos.

Some of the bolder ones ventured to the edge of the island's cliffs, but the howling air currents made them shiver.

Jumping down? How could that be possible?!

"Hey, Laurentina, what should we do? There are so many tourists here."

Alice dropped all the snacks in her hands, and the sudden floating of Wheat Island startled her.

For the three of them, going down was easy: Ghost Shark could fly, and Ain and Alice could walk on the moon.

But there are still tens of thousands of civilians on Wheat Ear Island...

"Why did an upwelling current suddenly appear?" Ai Yin murmured to herself, losing her composure.

Isn't this just a maritime legend from the Grand Line?

......

"Admiral, Wheat Ear Island has been successfully incorporated into the floating island STRONG WORLD," Indigo's voice was sharp.

"Hehehe, put all those SIQ creatures in and let them evolve."

As he spoke, the golden lion raised its index finger.

The next moment, the ground beneath his and Indigo's feet peeled away, carrying them towards the main island.

In the palace equipped with a swimming pool, the two landed with a thud.

Just then, a chimpanzee with fangs and wearing a pink suit came to Indigo's side and howled.

"What?! You're saying you saw a beautiful woman on the monitor and want to marry her?" Indigo translated, then immediately roared, "You're thinking way too far ahead, you perverted gorilla!"

Ding Ding Ding!

The golden lion stared wide-eyed at the chimpanzee, its mouth agape in surprise: "You scared me! I thought you were my old lady."

Snapped!

Indigo slapped Shiki on the shoulder, gritting his teeth, "Just how much ape blood do you have in your veins?!"

The Golden Lion came to his senses and took a few steps forward, stepping on the famous sword.

"Hehehe, it'll be soon." He looked at the snow scene outside, spread his arms and grinned, his long golden hair dancing in the air.

"Roger! Wait a little longer, and my masterpiece—this weakest sea—will become your burial offering!"

"Supernovas? Seven Warlords of the Sea? Four Emperors? Utterly boring! Even if those treasure-hunting star-struck pirates roam the seas, they're just an eyesore. What new era? Pirates are the rulers of the sea! One day I'll make the world remember that fear!!!"

"Ha ha ha ha!" A hearty laugh echoed through the palace on the main island.

......

"I misspoke." Laurentina turned to look at...

The two said in a deep voice, "It's not an upwelling current, it's a golden lion."

Following Ghost Shark's gaze, the two looked up and froze on the spot.

White clouds drifted by, emerald islands floated on the water, deep blue seawater cascaded down, and a seven-colored rainbow connected the floating islands of varying heights.

There were actually more than a dozen islands floating on it at the same time!

"Hmm, who did you say?" Alice asked blankly, "The Golden Lion?"

“Golden Lion,” Laurentina replied calmly.

"I have a vague recollection of it." Alice scratched her head. "I think I heard about it in the recruits' cultural studies class."

"Golden Lion?!"

Ain, standing to the side, almost fell silent. Her eyes widened in disbelief. "It's that Flying Pirates Admiral, Golden Lion?!"

"That...that Golden Lion who cut off his own legs and escaped from Impeldown Prison?!"

Alice suddenly remembered, then her face turned pale, and she helplessly clung to Laurentina's arm.

She remembered!

A page from the textbook in a cultural class.

Under the dim sky, blood dripped from two famous swords. A tall man stood with his back to the camera, his long golden hair flying wildly. At his feet lay a small mountain of naval corpses!

That was the Golden Lion before his leg was broken. He single-handedly stormed Marineford and killed countless marines.

So, this is the enemy they are about to face?

What a joke! ! !

Alice was so frightened that she almost buried her body in the ghost shark's arms.

"This is really a coincidence..." Laurentina didn't know how to describe this coincidence.

"That's it! There's still hope!" Ain had a flash of inspiration and frantically searched for Den Den Mushi (snail phone blocks).

"Boom boom boom..."

Laurentina handed over the Den Den Mushi, and Ein lifted the transparent cover and dialed Tina's number.

Please, Major General, you absolutely must receive this call!!!

"Zzzzzzzzz~"

At that moment, the Den Den Mushi emitted a static-like, screen-flickering sound.

The light in Ain's eyes visibly dimmed.

The island's communications were blocked by the horned Den Den Mushi, and it's even possible that the entire group of floating islands was cut off from external communication.

Indeed, how could a great pirate who could hide in the East Blue for fourteen years leave such a loophole?
