After finding the target, the traveler no longer needed the compass bird, so Noah opened a door and let the compass bird fly away, as it was too dangerous for it. Then, he went full speed ahead and headed straight for the whirlpool.
There is really no comparison between the scenes in the comics and reality. When getting closer, the turbulent ocean current has begun to carry Voyager towards the center of the vortex. The deafening sound of the water flow drowns out the thunder in the sky. The air flow filled with water vapor wraps around the body, giving a sticky feeling.
The speed of the boat was getting faster and faster, getting closer and closer to the center of the current. Robin nervously held Noah's hand, his palms were full of sweat. Not only Robin was nervous, but Noah was actually not that calm either. His observation Haki was fully activated, ready to open the door and leave this sea area at any time.
Finally, as they approached the center, Noah's observation Haki sensed an extremely terrifying force emerging from the bottom of the sea. The explosive force pushed the current sucked into the vortex back to the surface with a stronger attitude, and then rushed into the sky. The suction brought by this force sucked the Traveler onto the water dragon with greater force.
Holding on tightly to the edge of the boat and Robin, Noah's heart was filled with shock and endless joy. As the water dragon rushed straight towards Jidiyun, a heroic spirit of breaking through the sky surged in his chest.
Black clouds were coming, and the dark sky made everything look small and dim. But at this moment, Noah really wanted to strike the black sky with a sword. Perhaps the soul from another world had a kind of lofty sentiment that man can conquer nature in addition to awe for the world. Although he could not draw his sword, his domineering color burst out by itself, wanting to fight with the Emperor Cloud and stir up endless waves of clouds.
Soon, the Voyager followed the current into the Jidi Cloud. It was impossible to breathe without being wrapped in the cloud. The surrounding black clouds were all shaken away by the Overlord Color.
In just a few seconds, following the last bit of the ocean current, the Voyager broke through the dark clouds and arrived at the calm white sea.
Looking at the sea with a different kind of beauty, Noah and Robin kept adjusting their breathing. With the large amount of oxygen intake, their bodies were slowly adapting to the environment at this new altitude. It took a long time for them to adapt. After swinging the sword a few times, it still felt unnatural and might need to be polished.
During this period, when Enel had not yet taken over Sky Island, Noah's strength was enough to sweep across the island. It was not easy, but there was finally a place for the protagonist to stretch his back.
Let the boat slowly sail towards the Gate of Heaven. This Gate of Heaven seems to be very spectacular. Looking closely, it really looks a bit like the gate of an amusement park, which is very entertaining.
There was a small house at the door, and the figure inside felt as if a ship had come from the outside world, so he walked out. A very short old woman with wings on her back.
"Are you here to visit or to fight?"
Noah remembered that this old woman was the supervisor of the Gate of Heaven, and her name seemed to be Amazon. He didn't expect that she had been in charge of the Gate of Heaven during the Ganforth period.
"No matter what you are here for, each of you needs to pay 10 billion Aix. This is the law here."
"No."
Wasn't this law set by Enel later in life? But Noah knew that it was okay if he didn't pay the money.
"It doesn't matter if you don't have it. When you get to the kingdom of God, God will punish you." After saying that, he returned to his hut.
Without waiting for the special shrimp to appear, Noah drove the Traveler himself onto the rotating cloud river and headed straight for Sky Island. Luffy was forced to use the special shrimp to carry him up because the power system of the Merry was not good, but Noah did not need this.
Following the exit of Yunhe River, Angel Beach is not far away. When Noah and Robin stopped at the beach, they got off the boat and started sightseeing. They opened the door and took out two empty coconuts. They handed one to Robin and tasted it. It was indeed different from the coconuts in Qinghai. It was sweet like cotton candy, but not greasy.
Noah, who was enjoying the food, sensed someone coming into the woods. He turned his head to look to the side and saw a Sky Island resident with tentacles on his head and a big beard around his mouth walking towards him with a bamboo basket on his back.
Hmm~ looks a little familiar.
"Hey, hello, I'm Pagya, a resident of Sky Island. Judging from your clothes, are you from Qinghai?"
"Well, we are here to see God and discuss something."
"Looking for God? Then you have to go to the Shrine. I'll take you there. God is in the Island of Gods, Arpaiado."
So innocent... No wonder his daughter is so kind and innocent as well.
The group first crossed Lovely Avenue, arrived at Lovely Street, and then arrived at the Holy Island of God "Arpaiado".
400 years ago, Arpaiodo on the Sky Sea was originally part of the Gaya Island in Qinghai, and was carried to the White Sea by a huge ocean current 400 years ago.
This is interspersed with the story of the death of Rolando, the liar king. Because the golden city on the island of Jaya disappeared, he was executed by his own king for the crime of deception.
After Arpaiado was carried to the White Sea by the ocean current, the Sky Islanders, who had never seen land, regarded it as a holy place and occupied it, renaming it "God's Island". The expelled Shandia people started a 400-year war with the Sky Islanders in order to regain their homeland and ring the golden bell again to fulfill their promise with Nolando.
Chapter 57 Sky Island Experience
Pagya accompanied them all the way to the entrance of the sanctuary before leaving. What a kind-hearted guy he is.
"who."
"People from Qinghai Gaya Island, please inform Shengan Ful and tell him that we can solve the problem he wants to solve most."
The guards at the door looked at each other and arranged for someone to go in and report.
After a while, he ran out and said something simple to the guard at the door, and the guard led Noah and the other person in.
The current Sky Island is still under the rule of the god Gan Ful, who is the most peace-loving god of all the Sky Island gods. He has always hoped to live in peace with the Shandians.
However, Gan Fowle cannot resolve the core of the conflict between the Sky Islanders and the Shandians. At least the Shandians will not understand the peace of the Sky Islanders, because the Sky Islanders are invaders to the Shandians.
Entering the temple, Ganfor sat on the main seat, with his mount Pierre beside him.
"Hello, guest from Qinghai. I am Gan Ful, the ruler of this place."
"Hello, we are travelers from Qinghai, Noah and Robin."
"Okay, then Mr. Noah, how do you know about the things going on between the Sky Island residents and the Shandians?"
As he spoke, Gan Ful released his aura. After all, he was the god who protected Sky Island, and his strength was still considerable. Although he longed for peace, the god who could suppress the attack of the Shandians by himself was not without iron-blooded means.
If someone comes up to you and says he can help you solve your biggest problem, everyone will be skeptical. Not to mention how to solve it, it would be unnatural for them to know how to solve it.
Faced with the momentum, Noah raised his head slightly, and his domineering color instantly dispersed Gan Fowl's momentum and suppressed the opponent. Even Pierre who was standing next to him climbed down.
Appropriate display of strength is good for both parties. It can let the other party know that you are not joking.
Noah regained his calm attitude as soon as he released his momentum. Only the God of Sky Island was sweating coldly.
The guards outside the door rushed in at this time, pointing their weapons at Noah. God's status in Sky Island is supreme, and those who are rude to God will be punished.
"Let's all go back."
Gan Fowle waved his hand and asked the guards to retreat. This power was similar to the man back then. It seemed to be called Conqueror's Haki. It was said that it was something only a king could possess. What such a person said was usually well-targeted.
"I'm from Qinghai. The homeland of the Shandians, Gaya Island, is just below this sky island. I came from there. I'm also very familiar with the story of Rolando, the great benefactor of the Shandians. And over the years, some people from the sky island have drifted to Qinghai due to some accidents."
That was all Noah could say, because after watching the anime, this kind of thing didn't make sense.
Gan Fowle thought about it and accepted it. Even if the other party had a secret, he had no way to force him to tell it.
"Ten years ago, another couple from Qinghai came here. They were a very interesting and kind group of people. I wonder if you know anything about them."
That was Roger and his group. Noah thought about it and told Gan Fowl about the Pirate King. Gan Fowl was still a little sad when he heard the news that Roger had died.
"So, how are you going to resolve the issue between Sky Island and the Shandians? And what do you want to gain?"
Gan Fowle still asked the main question and Noah's purpose. He didn't believe that someone would go to such great lengths, risking his life, and riding the monster current to come to Sky Island just to resolve the conflict between the residents of Sky Island and the Shandians.
"I need the gold besides the lights of Shandora, and clues to Bica."
Gan Fowle thought about it and realized that the people of Sky Island didn’t really care about gold. Bica’s clues were also fine, and they could go to other Sky Islands through HIGH WEST.
"If you want to resolve the conflict, part of the gold also belongs to the Shandia people, and you need their consent. As for the clues about Bikka, it's okay. Tell me about your plan."
"It takes a 400-year apology, the land, and the lights of Shandora."
"400 years of apology~ Let me think about it. Land..."
Although Gan Ful was sincere in his efforts for peace, he also had to consider the dignity of the god who represented Sky Island. His dignity was also the dignity of Sky Island. Moreover, as for the matter of land, although only gods lived in the sanctuary, it was a bit unwilling for the Shandians to return it to him.
The conversation ended here, and then Gan Ful held a banquet in the Holy Land to entertain the guests from Qinghai. The banquet showcased the specialties of Sky Island.
Empty coconut, empty island pumpkin, empty lobster, empty fish. Although the empty lobster and empty fish look really strange, they taste really good, different from the taste of Qinghai, and conquered Noah's taste buds immediately.
Seeing that the guests were enjoying the meal, the Sky Island God was also very satisfied. Banquets are the best place to build closer relationships. After all, Noah is an outsider from Qinghai, and this outsider is very powerful and can seize the living space of the Sky Island people at any time. So we must treat him well, so that it is safe.
Moreover, seeing that Noah's purpose for the trip to Sky Island is so clear, we know that he will definitely reconcile the relationship between the people of Sky Island and the people of Shandia, so it is not excessive to use enthusiasm and delicious food to win them over in advance.
After eating and drinking, Gan Fowle sent someone to take Noah and Robin to places like Lovely Street to experience the hospitality of the people of Sky Island. He also gave them some local specialties. In the final mediation, he couldn't be biased towards the Shandians. Being a ruler is not that simple.
Finally, we returned to the sanctuary and arranged two rooms for rest. There are no hotels on the sky island.
During this shopping trip, Noah and Robin were very interested in the various bees with special abilities. The technology behind these specialties is very worth studying.
Other shells can be made with existing technology, such as wind shells, light shells, heat shells, etc., which are only of special value. But what are those flash shells, impact shells, repelling shells and slashing shells that I haven't seen? They are too magical.
The ability of Flash Shell to store light and release it instantly makes the flash gun look cool. It's a bit like Pacifist.
The ability of the impact shell to absorb kinetic energy, convert it and then release it is also quite buggy. The ability to absorb and convert is more important than releasing it.
The ability of the Repulse Shell is 10 times that of the Impact Shell, and the damage is really strong. Because Enelu is a user of the Nature Fruit ability, the effect is not obvious. If it is used against a physical enemy, the lethality is worth looking forward to.
Slashing? Noah didn't think much of the ability to absorb slashing. There was no need to absorb the slashing of ordinary people, and it was meaningless if he couldn't absorb the slashing of top swordsmen.
Noah plans to get some of the other three types of shells when he leaves, and then recruit some scientific and technological talents to study them. If they can be researched and replicated, it will be a huge improvement to the combat power of ordinary people.
Noah was making plans in his mind, and after checking the time, he realized it was getting late, so he went to bed. Tomorrow would not be an easy day.
The next morning after breakfast, Gan Fowle came. He had been thinking and struggling all night. At this time, he had not experienced Enel's rule, nor had he felt the so-called powerlessness of God, so it was very difficult for him to make this decision. If he could completely eliminate the war at this opportunity, then the dignity of God could be temporarily put aside.
Noah was very happy to learn of Gan Fowle's decision. Although he had the strength to do whatever he wanted on Sky Island, the warning line he drew for himself in his heart prevented him from being a willful person. The right way was to allow both parties to make a rational decision to live in peace.
Since the decision had been made, there was no need to drag it out any longer. Gan Fowl explained some things to the Shrine Guards, and then rode on Pierre to take Noah with him. As the god of Sky Island, he definitely knew where the Hidden Cloud Village was.
To be honest, the Sky Knight wearing armor and holding a lance is pretty handsome, but the mount is hard to describe. Why does the Ma-Ma fruit look like this? The Pegasus made of a Dalmatian and a black donkey is too eye-catching. There are spots on its wings. What kind of breed is this?
You can only try not to look at this creature, otherwise the god Gan Fol will lose his beloved horse.
The group passed through the Cloud Forest at high speed and headed towards the Hidden Cloud Village.
Chapter 58: Convincing people with reason
After a while, they arrived outside the Hidden Cloud Village.
Gan Fowl and Noah stood outside the Hidden Cloud Village and did not come any closer.
"How are you going to solve the problem? I don't think they will listen to you honestly."
"In my hometown, there is a wise man who traveled around the world when the nations were at war, and he made everyone listen to his reasoning. I plan to follow his example."
The Shandia warriors patrolling the outskirts of the village soon discovered Gan Ful, the god of the sky island, and immediately used sound shells to warn the village.
A few minutes later, the warriors of the Hidden Cloud Village arrived outside the village, and the women and children in the village ran deep into the jungle.
"Gan Fowl, are you coming to fight us to the death?"
Chief Shandia walked towards the God of Sky Island with a spear in hand. Looking at Gan Fowl and the man and woman beside him, he felt that it would be difficult to resolve today's matter. In the past, the Shandians always took the initiative to attack. This time, Gan Fowl came to the Hidden Cloud Village, contrary to his usual practice. Did he want to solve this problem permanently?
"This time it was the guy next to me from Qinghai who came to see you. I was just accompanying him."
After hearing this, the chief looked at Noah carefully. At first he thought he was an ordinary divine guard, but when he looked again, he found that he had no wings on his back and was not a Sky Islander.
"What are you here for?"
The chief was very rude to Noah, who came with Gan Ful.
Noah felt that it would be impossible to solve the problem and bring peace in this atmosphere, so he decided to talk in a way that the Shandians could accept.
"Qinghai, Noah, I'm here to end 400 years of regrets. We'll deal with the rest after we finish the fight."
After saying that, he walked directly towards the Shandia people.
"Too arrogant!" The soldiers surrounding here began to boil, ready to chop this seemingly ordinary enemy into meat paste at any time, without waiting for the Shandians to rush forward.
With a bang, the Conqueror Haki began to forcefully clear the field. The Shandia warriors in the back row continued to fall slowly, and in the end only about 20 people were left standing.
As expected of a great warrior clan, their average strength is very strong. Although Noah's domineering color has not reached its peak, his strength is not as good as that of the headquarters officers.
Looking at his fallen tribesmen, the chief roared furiously under the oppression.
"What have you done, stranger!"
"They just fainted because they couldn't bear the momentum. Descendants of the great warrior Kalgara, come and fight!"
This sentence made the remaining soldiers unable to hold back any longer. They were hot-tempered people and could get angry easily.
Is the spirited young man with the incendiary cannon who led the charge the future War Ghost Waipa? He didn't look so fierce when he was young. The Mohawk holding the sword in the back must be the Mantis Kamajiri. Tsk tsk, no wonder this group of people appeared in many scenes in the later Luffy Sky Island arc. They really had certain strength when they were young.
But Waipa, does he have to fire at the opponent's face when holding the incendiary cannon? DNF big gun? Noah was not used to this bad habit, and punched Waipa, knocking him and the cannon away.
Kamachiri, who followed behind, had no time to be shocked. He raised his burning sword and slashed at him, but Noah blocked it with one finger. The black armament color wrapped around his finger, and an attack of this level could only get this kind of respect. Noah had always wanted to block the sword with his fingers, not for any reason, just to pay tribute to Captain Aizen, it was so cool.
Kamachili, whose attack was caught by the finger, tried his best to exert force but it was still useless. However, after he found that it was useless, he continued to do so on purpose. All this was for his comrade Braham who had already circled behind Noah.
Braham quietly walked around behind Noah, held his breath, raised the flash gun, aimed, and fired 16 flash shots with both hands. It's stable, he thought to himself.
Unfortunately, Noah's eyes flashed red, he slightly turned sideways, took a few steps without warning, and dodged them all. You deserve to have the powerful style of observation Haki, the calm and calm style of the strong.
With a flick of his finger, he knocked Kamachili away, and then kicked Braham away. Then, the rest of the guys like Jebao and Laqi were knocked down one by one.
Finally, only the chieftain was left holding the spear.
"Very strong! It seems that the 400-year struggle of the Shandians may come to an end here. However, the descendants of the great warrior Kalgara will only die on the way to the charge."
After saying that, the chief picked up his spear and rushed towards Noah, stabbing him with his spear with a tragic and tragic momentum and boundless anger. This made Noah feel like a villain.
