Chapter 66 Encountering an old friend
Black Butterfly chose to stay in the Sky Island. Although Qingluo was a little surprised by this decision, he was not unreasonable.
On the contrary, Qingluo didn't feel surprised about the mysterious Black Butterfly.
The next day, Ace, Qingluo and Lily bid farewell to Black Butterfly, boarded the Sky Road, and continued their journey to pursue Blackbeard.
Black Die and Cornis stood at the port of Apayado continent, watching Qingluo and others leave.
"Qingluo, you must live well, don't die..." After walking far away from Tianlu, Hei Butterfly murmured in a slight and inaudible voice.
After Qingluo and others knew that the route Blackbeard chose was Greenland Island, they changed the route as quickly as possible and headed straight towards Greenland Island.
Nothing happened during the voyage of the sea. The only thing worth mentioning is the change in the bounty of Qingluo and others.
Newsbird scattered a few newspapers to the Tianlu ship, with rewards from Qingluo and others.
"Hey, Qingluo, Lily, you have raised the bounty again." Ace said with some sigh with one of the newspapers.
Upon hearing this, Qingluo and Lily both came over.
"My reward was actually mentioned to Bailey 280 million? By the way, I didn't do anything big, right?" Qing Luo said in surprise.
"My reward now is over 100 million, ah, I have become so valuable!" Lily covered her mouth and watched her reward turn into 120 million Baileys.
Her focus was different. The high reward made her feel for the first time that her life was so valued, and she felt a sense of happiness.
"The amount of the reward is evaluated based on the degree of threat to the world by the pirates. Your strength has been fully revealed when you were on Gaya Island. It is not surprising that the Navy gave this reward." Ace explained.
Lily asked curiously: "Then Esgow, what is your reward?"
"I'm still the same, 550 million Baileys." Ace smiled and replied.
"So, then I will pay 600 million Bailey to buy you, and you will be mine from now on." Lily said seriously.
She is now a little rich woman and is very satisfied with Ace's strength. If the Immortal Pirates could have such a powerful person, then the money would be very valuable.
Ace stood there as he heard Lily's words.
Qingluo covered Lily's mouth in time so that she would not continue to say anything amazing, and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, it's because I didn't popularize her the correct worldview and values, which made you laugh."
Ace came back to his senses and laughed: "It's nothing, this is quite interesting. If I hadn't gotten on my father's ship, maybe I would have been bribed by Lily."
This little episode quickly subsided, Qingluo and others sailed all the way, and three days later, Luyuan Island arrived.
Above Greenland Island is a vast grassland. When the sea, grassland and blue sky are combined, it shows a beautiful scenery with unique flavor.
Everyone strolled on the grass, breathing in the air with the smell of grass. Looking up, the scenery was open and magnificent, making people feel comfortable.
"There is a nomadic tribe in front. Let's go and find out if there is any news about the black beard." Qingluo pointed ahead, where there was a group of cattle and sheep, and hundreds of tents scattered around.
Qingluo and others came to the tribe and saw the local residents. When the local residents saw outsiders coming, they did not see any life. Instead, they were very enthusiastic.
They brought the best beef and wine to eat and chat with Qingluo and others.
There are top ten tribes distributed on this grassland, and they are just a small tribe. They actually don’t see many pirates passing by this island.
Therefore, they had no impression of the photos of the black beard that Ace took out for them to identify.
"Mr. Ace, I suggest you go to the Afia tribe to ask. It is the largest tribe on our Green Field Island. Usually, pirates pass by this island, and they will pass by that place." The chief of this tribe suggested.
Ace crossed his fists, performed a tribal ceremony, expressed his gratitude, and then began to set off for the Afia tribe.
What Qingluo did not expect was that they actually met an old friend on the way.
"Ace, Qingluo, why are you together!" Nelson said in surprise.
Behind him, six members of the Red Dragon Pirates met Qing Luo and others again, and there was a smile on their faces.
"Hi, Nelson, it's been a long time no see!" Qing Luo waved and greeted.
Afterwards, what surprised Qingluo even more was that Ace actually knew Nelson.
"Ace, I found the traces of Blackbeard." After a while of greeting each other, Nelson suddenly said.
"Really? Where is the Blackbeard!" As soon as he heard the news about the Blackbeard, Ace became excited.
"Don't worry, he's on this island. For the auction of the Heart of the Grasslands held in three days in Afia tribe, he won't leave the island for the time being." Nelson said with a smile.
"Heart of the Grassland? What is that?" Qingluo said curiously.
At this time, Sail, who was holding an ancient book, walked over and explained: "The Legend of the Heart of the Grassland is a gem that can bring people back to life. Those who wear it will gain extremely powerful vitality."
"There are even more rumors that those who have obtained the Heart of the Grassland have strong vitality to swallow several demonic fruits."
Qingluo frowned. Could it be that the Blackbeard's ability to swallow several demon fruits at a time was obtained from here?
He had previously guessed that Blackbeard had this ability entirely because he had several hearts. Now it seems that perhaps it was for this reason.
"So, we just need to ambush him at the auction three days later." Ace stroked his chin and said in a deep voice.
"Yes, so now we are rarely together, so we must have a good drink!" Nelson said happily, and then looked at Qingluo with a slightly provocative look.
When Qingluo heard this, he was also a little interested and asked, "How do you want to drink it?"
"Hi, handsome little guy, do you still remember me?" At this moment, a pretty girl with a ponytail walked up to the front and said with a smile.
"I remember you. You told me that you will come to me for a drink next time when you meet." Qing Luo remembered the previous scene and couldn't help but smile.
When Nelson saw the girl coming out, he seemed to have enough confidence and said loudly: "Two to two, Ace and Qingluo, you two. Mia and I, we will drink as much as you drink."
"This is no problem." Qing Luo agreed immediately.
Ace looked solemn, turned his head and asked Qingluo with some concern: "Hey, you are so confident, how about you drink?"
Qingluo smiled confidently: "Anyway, Nelson has been drunk once by me."
"I don't mean that..." Ace shook his head, "A Mia is worth seven or eight Nelsons. She is just a barrel. I'm asking you how much alcohol you drink compared to her?"
Qingluo: "..."
The ginger wine on the grassland is fragrant and mellow, and it is the most pleasant wine Qingluo has ever drunk in this world.
Four people sat on the ground, whispered glasses, and drank the wine in big mouthfuls.
Ace, Nelson and Qingluo all have similar alcohol tolerance, so there is no doubt that in the end, Ace and Qingluo were drunk directly by Mia until they could not take care of themselves.
At the end, Mia began her crushing mode: "Come on, Qingluo, you drink a bowl, I drink a pot!"
"Ace, why are you lying down? The wine in the bowl hasn't been finished yet!"
Finally, Qingluo and Ace hugged each other and fainted on the ground.
Nelson laughed loudly and let out a bitter breath.
