I am a Celestial Dragon!
Chapter 179 Island Anecdotes
Listening to Bega Punk's words, Gawain smiled and nodded.
"It's quite direct, but that's fine. Tell me what you want, Vegapunk."
After saying that, Gawain waited for Vegapunk's reply, but his phone bug suddenly went silent.
Seemingly pondering for a while, Vegapunk shook his head.
"I don't seem to need much. After all, whatever I need, the World Government will send it to me.
So... well, can you do me a favor?
In my old home in the future kingdom, I still have two former laboratories, which I used when I was young to study devil fruits and mechanization.
I heard that you are traveling, right? When you are not busy, can you help me maintain my laboratory?
Because of the high technology content there, even just maintenance will cost a lot of money. I'm not sure how much it will cost, but it should be at least ten figures.
Anyway, I'll leave it to you, okay? "
It was only then that Gawain belatedly remembered that Vegapunk still had two fortunes buried in the future kingdom!
He actually forgot about those two laboratories all this time!
Even if Franky can't use the Devil Fruit laboratory for the time being, the mechanized laboratory is enough to bring him considerable improvement, right?
So, after a flash of light flashed in Gawain's eyes, he agreed to Bega Punk's request very decisively.
“That’s it, Vegapunk!
Don't worry, haha, I will definitely take good care of your experimental equipment. It must be quite properly maintained! "
"That's great. I'll help you deal with the slow fruit problem. I wish you a happy cooperation, Gao Wensheng."
Vegapunk hung up the phone mechanically, and Gawain quickly looked at the people around him.
"That's right, everyone, Vegapunk, the person who knows Devil Fruit best, can indeed transfer Devil Fruit from the body of an esper.
So, you can really choose the fruit you want! "
"But sir, with at least ten figures in Bega Punk's mouth, isn't this price a bit high?"
Gion asked softly.
“We are short of money right now.
Although we still have investments in big ships and casinos, compared with the plans we want to roll out, we are still under a lot of financial pressure, right?
Isn't it a little bit... to suddenly spend several billions of dollars, and you can buy Devil Fruit directly at such a price? "
“It’s not expensive at all, Gion, after all, truly excellent Devil Fruits will almost never go to auction.
But we can truly take advantage of the excellent fruits! "
Gawain chuckled and said.
"What's more, apart from being able to freely choose Devil Fruits, we are not spending money on Vegapunk!
We do it for our own future!
Just imagine, what kind of maintenance can be safer than moving those laboratories to our ship?
It just so happens that we still have a large open space at the stern of the ship, so let's plan it as an experimental area and move Vegapunk's home there!
In this way, if there is an opportunity in the future, we can invite Vegapunk to visit his hometown. However, his hometown has become our ship, haha!
Franky, what do you think? "
"I have no objection, but isn't this a bit bad...
Sir, we were asked to clean up the old house, but we moved it away.
This... this is too clean, isn't it? "
Even people like Franky felt a little embarrassed, so at this time everyone was looking at Gawain with disbelief.
Facing everyone's looks, Gawain waved his hand indifferently.
“For research equipment, only when they are used can they generate value, right?
Otherwise, no matter how much maintenance is done, the experimental equipment will just continue to wait for the end of decay and destruction... "
Gawain made an unquestionable decision.
"That's it, Khalifa, add this project to the upcoming plans.
At the same time, send a small black bird to the future kingdom to investigate, and make plans for laboratory relocation and repair based on the on-site conditions.
If it was easier to relocate, Franky would take the time to take the black birds to move them back.
If the laboratory is too large, then our Blackbird will drive there in person! "
On the sidelines, everyone stopped questioning after seeing Gawain giving orders directly to Kalifa.
After all, while the Gaowen Group has a good atmosphere, it also has no shortage of systems.
No one will disrespect his decision as a captain!
After Gawain made his decision, Uta casually poured a spoonful of soup into his hand.
"Oops, my hands are so clumsy, I got burned..."
Gawain, feed me~~~! "
"Um."
Gawain rubbed the little girl's head in a funny way, and then continued to feed the little girl.
After lunch, Gawain continued to exercise. In the afternoon, he did not need to practice physical fitness anymore, but was extremely serious about honing his iron skills.
I saw him taking a stance, contracting his muscles, and letting Gion punch him one after another.
Boom!
Boom!
Muffled sounds kept coming, and Gawain kept falling down. His eyes were rolled over, he was vomited, and he was beaten until he convulsed.
With each punch, Gion will use Gawain's state and his own feel to urge Gawain to adjust the way the muscles in each part of the body exert force.
"Sir, you have got rid of the instinct to dodge now, which is half the battle. It's just that the way you accumulate power still needs to be adjusted.
The iron block is not just a technique to expand the muscles, it is a technique to coordinate the muscles within a certain range.
Try to find the range that allows you to best withstand blows, and then gradually reduce that range until your muscles can resist well... Huh? "
Speaking of this, Gion suddenly raised her head curiously, and she looked straight at the sky in the distance.
At the same time, other people on the boat also looked over in that direction.
Noticing Gion's demeanor, Gawain turned around.
Oops!
In the distance, there was a large ship about three hundred meters long, which fell straight from the sky.
At the same time, Lu Qi shouted loudly.
"Salvage team, hurry up, collect the scrap ship wood!"
With a swipe, a group of Black Ice Platform members boarded the Little Black Bird directly and rushed in the direction of landing.
At the same time, on the side of the ship, Wu Ta, who was practicing his voice, was shocked by the falling ship.
"How could a ship fall from the sky?
Is that a ghost ship? ! ! "
After the words fell, Uta turned around and waved his hand to Gawain.
"Sir, let's go and have a look too, that's a ghost ship, sir!!"
"Haha, how could it be a ghost ship?"
Not far away from Uta, Mr. Leili was lying on a recliner listening to music and smiled and waved his hand.
"The ship fell from the sky... Let me think about it, I should have an impression.
Kalifa, where is this place? Are there any islands nearby? "
After hearing Rayleigh's words, Kalifa thought for a moment and responded.
"Mr. Leili, nearby is the Navy G-8 Fortress. In addition, there are also the Navy G-2 Fortress, Hot Spring Island, Gaya Island and Shanyan Island nearby!"
"oh……."
Hearing this, Lei Li nodded clearly.
"Sure enough, Gaya Island is nearby, right? It's not surprising at all!"
While he was talking, the old man took a strong drink and took a swig.
In the distance, Yi smiled and shrugged his nose, asking the old man.
"Mr. Reilly, the Gaya Island you are talking about refers to... the legend about the Sky Island?"
"Huh? Sky Island!"
At this moment, Bai Xing and Uta both slid sideways to Yixiao and looked at Yixiao excitedly.
"Uncle Yixiao, what does Sky Island mean? An island floating in the sky?" Bai Xing was extremely excited.
Uta gently spread the wings on his back.
"Uncle, when I was a kid, I heard Shanks' father say that all Sky Islanders have wings. Is that true?"
As soon as Uta finished speaking, his shock turned into a smile, and he tilted his head in confusion.
"Wait a minute, Uta, does that red-haired guy also think there really is an empty island in the world?
He even told you the story of Sky Island?
Shouldn't Sky Island be a legend? Many families on the Grand Line would tell their children the story of Rolando before going to bed, right? "
As soon as the joke ended, Lei Li on the side of the boat laughed and waved his hand to Yixiao.
"Brother Yixiao, you are too narrow-minded. Sky Island is real!
As for why Shanks knows the story of Sky Island, haha, it’s because we personally landed on Sky Island back then! "
"Wow!"
Bai Xing quickly put aside her smile and rushed to Rayleigh's side. She curled up her big tail and listened to Rayleigh's words like a child who was paying attention to the class.
Looking at Shirahoshi who was serious, Rayleigh smiled and nodded, and then he started to tell.
"That was about twenty years ago, Roger...had already learned about his terminal illness.
Knowing that he was about to die, Roger became anxious and vowed to find the legendary Raff Drew.
For this reason, we need someone to help us translate the historical text, but even if we found Oha La, we could not find such a person.
So, we set our sights on the producers of the historical text, the Kozuki clan of Wano Country!
But before we arrived in Wano Country, we heard the news that Newgate's pirate group had an additional vice-captain!
That guy actually didn't adopt a son, but recognized a younger brother!
In particular, his younger brother's surname is Mitsuki, and he is the heir to the Mitsuki clan of Wano Country!
So Roger got down on his knees and begged Newgate to let him lend us his brother for two years.
Just like that, we took Oden back to our original starting point and embarked on a great voyage again.
Along the way, we saw a lot of things, and Oden also explained a lot of historical text slabs to us.
And one of the stone slabs is on the nearby empty island!
To be honest, I almost forgot about this matter, but it was when little Kalifa said the name of Gaya Island that I remembered it.
Didn’t the half of the land lost by Gaya Island fall to the empty island?
That’s why in the waters near Gaya Island, you can often see Neptunes and ships falling from the sky! "
Speaking of this, Rayleigh suddenly remembered something, so he hurriedly said it to Gawain.
"By the way, little Gawain, speaking of Sky Island, I suddenly remembered something!
Aren’t we short of money, but there is a golden city on the empty island!
I don’t know the specific amount, but it should be worth at least thousands or even hundreds of billions, right?
In short, these two children happen to be very curious, so why not take them to the empty island? "
After saying that, Rayleigh stood up with a loud laugh, and then he lifted Bai Xing up.
He was seen holding up Shirahoshi's tail like he was lifting weights, and said excitedly.
"How about it, Little Baixing, Grandpa Leili will take you to travel to Sky Island?
There are not only people with wings there, but also gods, haha.
We also had a chat with their god back then. If I remember correctly, their god should be named Gandalf, right?
Is it a blessing or something, I can’t remember it!
In short, Sky Island is really a very peaceful and beautiful place, haha. "
Speaking of which, Rayleigh threw Shirahoshi for a while as if he were throwing a child.
After he put Bai Xing back on the ground, he came to Gawain and continued to speak to Gawain seriously.
"Gawain, what you just said is not a joke. I and Roger really went to Sky Island.
Even if we don’t mention Sky Island’s special geographical location, let’s just talk about the large amount of developed gold contained therein.
Those alone are enough reasons for us to go to Sky Island!
The most important thing is that we now have a smiling brother!
With him here, we don't even have to wait for the conditions to land on the sky island, we can just float up! "
While Lei Li was speaking, a group of cadres also came over. Listening to Lei Li's explanation, the cadres nodded one after another.
Hancock was the first to say with concern.
"If there is a lot of gold, then we really should go there. We still owe the Capital of Seven Waters more than 400 billion!"
"Yes, and it's an empty island. Just listening to it makes people's hearts surge!"
Jinbei's adventurous spirit was already restless.
Shiliu gently rubbed his knife.
"What kind of hand will the Sky Islander have when he cuts it off..."
"Ahem, don't always fight and kill. What we are looking forward to is the customs and customs of Sky Island!"
Yixiao said to Xi Liu seriously.
In the center of the crowd, looking at the expectant eyes of everyone, Gawain nodded gently.
"Since everyone thinks so, of course there is no problem. After we have replenished fresh water and vegetables at Nabalon Fortress, we will let Mr. Leili lead the way to Sky Island!"
"no problem!"
Rayleigh waved his hand.
"There is no need to lead the way at all. The Sky Island is just above Gaya Island, and the half of the land that Gaya Island lost is on the Sky Island!
As long as we float up from Gaya Island, we can see Sky Island all the way up! "
Accompanied by the old man's laughter, an ordinary day suddenly became extraordinary, and everyone began to look forward to Sky Island.
However, at this time, they never imagined that Gawain was the one among them who was looking forward to Sky Island the most...
And amid this expectation, Gawain and his party finally arrived outside Nabalon Fortress.
…
In the Navy's G-8 branch, a major rushed to the place where Jonathan was fishing and interrupted his interest.
"Commander, the fortress's investigators have discovered Gao Wensheng!
A ship that is almost larger than our entire fortress has just stopped on the sea about ten nautical miles away from us! "
"oh?"
Jonathan lazily raised his eyes, and then he put away his fishing rod.
"Why are you nervous? Isn't this just right? I caught a hairtail today and it's still alive.
You go and ask everyone to line up and get ready to welcome Gao Wensheng. I'll go to my wife's place first and ask her to help make a good dish, and then I'll go to your place! "
After he finished speaking, Jonathan picked up the fish basket and walked towards the branch canteen with a calm expression.
After receiving the order, the major immediately led people to prepare a queue to greet Gao Wensheng.
…
And Jonathan….
"Easy, gentle, I am the commander of the branch after all, Jessica, don't let me be so embarrassed, okay!!!"
In the cafeteria of the G-8 branch, Jonathan, who looked calm, was grabbed by the ears by a beautiful young woman with blond hair.
Hearing what Jonathan said, the blond Jessica angrily tugged on Jonathan's ear again.
"You lazy bastard, you are fishing every day, how can I have time to clean up all the fish you caught?
Adding dishes to the Celestial Dragons. The banquet to entertain the Celestial Dragons is common among our chefs. I need to specially add a live hairtail fish!
And at this time, you still don’t stand with your soldiers. Why, do you think you are Lieutenant General Garp!
Hurry up and put on my hat, and then go to greet the Tianlong people seriously!
If you offend the Celestial Dragons, not only will you die, but I may be snatched away as a slave by the Celestial Dragons. I am so beautiful, do you want me to become the wife of the Celestial Dragons, bastard!
How dare you, Jonathan! ! ! "
