Chapter 97: Super Evolution of Target Fruit... Door Fruit.(1/2)
Asuka: "Lieutenant Colonel Penn, listen to me, I am strong."
Penn: "It doesn't matter how strong you are, Feiniao, I am the lieutenant colonel."
Asuka: "I am also a direct subordinate of Lieutenant General Gumil. Theoretically speaking, we are on the same level."
...
On the second floor of the warship, a group of sailors were lying on the railing, looking down at the two people arguing on the deck.
"Hello."
One of the sailors looked up at the sun in the sky, then looked down at the two people arguing on the deck, and both said.
"Lieutenant, Lieutenant Colonel, they have been arguing all morning. When will we have dinner?"
When another sailor next to him heard this, he rolled his eyes at the man, looked at the two arguing below, and began to come up with ideas.
"Let me tell you, neither the lieutenant nor the lieutenant colonel should argue. I have a revolver here. I put a blank round in the gun and they shot at each other...
Who gets shot, who rests..."
"Pa!" x N
When a group of sailors nearby heard this, they all clapped their legs. What a great idea.
Thinking of this, the group of sailors shouted to the two people below.
"Lieutenant Colonel Penn, Lieutenant Asuka, please stop arguing."
As he said that, one of the sailors threw down the revolver and blank ammunition, and spoke out the idea they had just discussed.
After hearing this, Feiniao picked up the revolver and blank ammunition on the deck, handed them to Penn, and said.
"I think this is a good idea..."
"Hmm... um... um..."
The sailors on the second floor of the warship nodded wildly. If you two don't decide the outcome, we will starve to death.
Penn looked at the turbulent public opinion among his men, and reluctantly took the revolver from Feiniao's hand. After loading the blank ammunition, he turned the wheel a few times, raised his gun and pointed it at Feiniao, and said.
"Feiniao, accept your fate, I am..."
Before he finished speaking, Penn pulled the trigger.
Just now, he made some moves in the revolver. This shot will definitely hit the flying bird.
Bang!
There was a puff of smoke from the revolver...it exploded.
...
"call!"
Penn puffed out a mouthful of black smoke and stared blankly at the sky. The revolver could explode.
Looking at Penn, whose face was dark, Feiniao stepped forward, patted his shoulder and comforted him.
"Lieutenant Colonel, I seem to see you being shrouded in bad luck."
"Empress, I'd better go see her myself."
After speaking, Asuka shouted to the sailors on the second floor of the warship.
"It's time to eat."
...
After finishing the meal, Feiniao came to the railing carrying a bottle of Coke. Recently, he likes to drink Coke. According to Bruno, he mixed this stuff himself.
Two days ago, he threw two boxes of Smoothie into the New World, but he didn't know if he drank Smoothie.
Thinking of this, Feiniao put down the Coke in his hand, came to the railing, looked at the endless horizon in the distance, looked sideways at the navigator beside him, and asked.
"Is the flight going smoothly? How long does it take to reach the destination?"
The navigator nodded and answered without hesitation.
“It’s going very well. So far, we have a tailwind, the ocean currents are stable, and there are no signs of storms.
If we keep going like this, we should be able to arrive a little earlier than expected, and at most around 4:30 p.m., we will be able to see the port of Santa Pobla."
[Santa Pobla is the name of the island on which the City of the Queen of Spring is located.]
The location where the Navy sends information to the Empress is sometimes at sea, sometimes on an island. This time they directly chose the City of Spring Queen.
Feiniao heard the navigator's professional answer and nodded happily. When he first came to the Grand Line, he was deceived by the group of trainee navigators.
Then, he lowered his head and looked at the captured pirates on the deck. After taking a look at them, Asuka asked.
"Is there anyone with Devil Fruit abilities among these pirates?"
When the sailor nearby heard this, he lowered his head and looked at the group of prisoners on the deck.
They met the pirates on the way here.
These prisoners were the lucky ones who survived the battle with the navy.
How lucky.
The pirates who were captured on the warship would be waiting for them in a dark undersea prison.
After taking a look at the group of guys soaked in the sea water, the sailor next to him shook his head and said with some regret.
"After spending a whole day together, I haven't found anyone in this group who is out of luck."
"well!"
Asuka sighed and waved to the sailor.
Devil Fruits are so rare to find. It’s really difficult to get one for Lieutenant Colonel Penn to eat.
...
The flight of several hours in the afternoon was as smooth as in the morning.
Around four o'clock in the afternoon, before dusk fell, Santa Pobla Island appeared in view, a full hour earlier than expected in the morning.
And when the outline of the City of Spring Queen was gradually revealed, the navy gathered on the deck couldn't help but let out a sound of exclamation.
The small town in front of them was unexpectedly beautiful. From a distance, there were row upon row of high-rise buildings, with fountains and sculptures interspersed with each other. It was several times higher than the Whiskey Mountain Peak they had seen.
From the background alone, this city is a place where commerce and trade flourish.
After sailing into the port, Feiniao still followed the straightforward style of acting. As soon as the warship docked, he kicked off the warship, Lieutenant Colonel Penn, who was groaning and looking reluctant.
Penn looked at the group of pirate prisoners around him, then at the flying bird waving to him on the warship, and then at the top-notch Happy Street VIP membership card in his hand.
Penn was extremely fed up.
If you don’t want it yourself, the birds will have to give it to you.
"call!"
Thinking of this, Penn took a deep breath, then looked at the warship leaving the port, turned to look at the sailors who followed him off the ship, and ordered.
"Take them and follow me to the nearby branch. Then you and I will wait here for the arrival of Lieutenant General Gumir."
...
The short time the warship docked was enough for Feiniao to buy some local specialties from the port, but the key point was that he was brutally killed by a ruthless businessman.
Feiniao glanced at the clothes in his hand, which were very local and humane, and threw them into the sky, only to see the clothes swaying and flying towards the new world.
At the same time, right in front of the warship, the ships of the Nine Snakes Pirates appeared on the sea level.
"Lieutenant, His Majesty Shichibukai-Boya Hancock is here."
After hearing the shouts from the sailors on the mast, Asuka took the telescope handed over by the navy next to him and looked directly in front of the warship.
While Asuka was searching for the empress's pirate ship, a skull flag covered by nine snakes that looked like the sun appeared in Asuka's sight.
"Phew, here it comes!"
After Asuka blew out the smoke gently, he looked at the pirate ship getting closer and closer to him and murmured.
"It's my first time meeting the most beautiful woman in the pirate world, so I'm still a little nervous."
...
The empress's pirate ship slowly sailed towards the warship, and finally docked not far from the warship.
"Gulu!"
The recruit next to Asuka looked at the huge pirate ship, swallowed and whispered.
"It is said that Nine Snakes are monsters that can turn people into stone."
When the navy man next to him heard this, he also had an ugly smile on his face, waved his hands quickly and lowered his voice.
"How is that possible?"
"But I heard that the empress is extremely beautiful."
