Pirate: Give me your power

Nelson jumped onto the big boat and handed the heart to Logan. Logan didn't care to look at it, so he took it and put it in his pocket.

Nelson nodded, then went to the other side to hold the paddle.

Logan walked to the stern and looked into the distance. The navy's fleet was moving very fast. Just now, he could only see a bright spot the size of a grain of rice, but now he could vaguely see a cluster of outlines.

Logan immediately asked: "Ur, are we still on the original route? Can you tell how far we are from Efe Island?"

Ur hurriedly looked at the recording pointer, raised his head and looked at Nelson in surprise, and said, "It's still there, the pointer is very stable, and it's very close to Efe Island. I think I can see the outline of Efe Island in two hours at most!"

"Very good!" Logan pointed at the bow of the boat and said excitedly, "Full speed ahead, let's go to the island!"

……

On the other side, the bright light of the star dragon fish's skirt caught the attention of the watchman on the large standard warship. At the same time, he also spotted Logan and others who were fleeing.

The watchman immediately reported to Korfan, the base chief of the Navy's G7 branch: "Reporting to Vice Admiral Korfan, a small boat was found 4300 nautical miles ahead. There was a 'Scent Demon' Arisa Nelson with a bounty of 120 million Berries on board, and a "White Fang" Florentino Croto Logan with a bounty of [-] million Berries. Both belonged to the Patton Pirates, and there was no sign of Patton!"

Lieutenant General Korfan nodded with a cigar in his mouth, and waved his hand to signal the watchmen to continue their investigation.

The adjutant on the side stepped forward and asked, "Lieutenant General, do you want to send a warship to sink them?"

Kerfan exhaled a cloud of mist, looked into the distance, and said solemnly: "No, our task now is more important!"

"But…"

"Report to Lieutenant General Korvan, the pirate boat is speeding up towards Efe Island."

The words of watching the sailors sounded from above again.

Lieutenant General Kerfan glanced at the adjutant, and said calmly: "Is there any more right now?"

The adjutant gave a military salute and said loudly, "No more!"

After finishing speaking, the adjutant looked towards the direction of Efe Island in the distance, with a gloating expression on his face.

……

"Captain, has the navy caught up?"

Wu Er immersed himself in rowing the boat and asked loudly.

Standing in the stern, watching the naval fleet closely through binoculars, Logan replied, "Not yet!"

"Don't worry, the navy will definitely not catch up with us!"

This guy Nelson is not worried at all, he looks full of confidence.

"Hahaha, you are really optimistic."

A smile curled up on the corner of Logan's mouth, feeling a lot more at ease.

Ur's mood also improved a lot. He shook his head and said with a smile, "Let the old man sing a song for you two!"

Then, regardless of whether the two agreed or not, Ur sang loudly.

"Ah ah ah ah ~ things like the compass are just the root of stagnation, facing the scorching sun and steering the helm as you like, ah ah ah..."

Ur is indeed very talented in singing, especially now that he has a sense of vicissitudes given by age, it sounds contagious!

Logan and Nelson couldn't help humming softly.

Under the night, the small boats galloped forward surrounded by singing.

More than an hour later, when Logan was staring intently at the naval fleet, Ur's singing stopped abruptly, replaced by a panicked exclamation!

Logan asked without looking back: "What's wrong?"

Ur threw down the oar in a hurry, ran to Logan and raised his arms and said anxiously: "The recording pointer suddenly broke!"

Startled, Logan immediately put down the binoculars in his hand and looked at the record pointer on Ur's wrist.

The pointers on both sides remained the same as before, but the one in the middle suddenly trembled violently, and then pointed to the sky obliquely!

Sky? ! !

Logan looked up at the pitch-black sky, thinking: Is there a huge empty island above this sea area?

It is the record that the pointer was taken away by Sky Island in an instant!

Logan, who has read the original book, can only think of one answer. After all, it is impossible for Efe Island to float into the sky, right?

Logan shook his head and told Ur his conjecture.

Unexpectedly, Ur said dubiously: "Sky Island, isn't that a fairy tale? Are there really islands floating in the sky in the world?"

Even Nelson, who has always been steadfast in what Logan said, couldn't believe the existence of Sky Island at this moment.

Just when Logan was about to explain, the boat was suddenly hit by something and trembled.

Nelson rushed up with a stride, inspected it and said in surprise, "It's a pile of broken boards."

Logan wondered: "Why are there broken boards here? Did a ship sink?"

Nelson leaned over the side of the boat and picked up a piece of broken wood, looked at it carefully, and said strangely: "It doesn't look like the wood on the boat, but it looks like the wood on the roof. It seems to be a very precious wood."

"Roof?" Ur couldn't help laughing, "Are you trying to say that someone built a house on the sea?"

"It's impossible to think about it."

Unconvinced, Nelson threw the board to Wuer, and hummed, "Look for yourself!"

Ur caught it in a hurry, and replied without any weakness: "Just look at it!"

"Huh?" Ur looked at it over and over again, and felt a little strange, "This seems to be really a piece of roof, hiss, it's impossible, is it because it's too dark, I can't see clearly."

Nelson said disdainfully: "It's been so many years of wasted work, and you can't even tell the wooden boards on the roof from the wooden boards on the boat."

Ur frowned tightly and did not refute. He opened his eyes wide and carefully stroked every grain of the wooden board.

Suddenly, Ur's eyes widened as if he saw something terrifying, and then Ur double-checked it a dozen times as if he couldn't believe it.

"How could this be?" Ur murmured in shock.

Logan frowned, "What's going on?"

Ur's Adam's apple rolled, and he handed the plank to Logan, saying, "This is lion heart wood. It's named for its interior texture resembling a lion's head. This tree is regarded as a sacred tree by the residents of Efe Island. It is a A very precious tree. I went to Efe Island when I was young, and there is only one building on the entire island that is qualified to be built with lionheart wood!"

Speaking of this, Ur paused for a moment, and said in a low tone: "That is the Holy Lion Cathedral in the center of Efe Island!"

"And this piece of wood is the roof of the cathedral!!"

Chapter 16 Goodbye, Effie Island

Logan's face changed suddenly, and the broken plank in his hand slipped from his hand weakly, "Does that mean something happened to Efe Island?"

Ur nodded solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "And it's definitely not a trivial matter, it's very likely that he suffered a catastrophe!"

Logan lowered his head and paced slowly, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "Then, where are we going now?"

Ur lowered his head with a gloomy expression, biting his lips without saying a word.

A dignified atmosphere immediately spread on the boat.

Nelson scratched his ears anxiously, he didn't care where he was going next, he just saw that Logan was unhappy, and he couldn't help Logan, so he was anxious.

Isn't there anything to liven up the current atmosphere?

Nelson looked around, trying to find something to talk about. Suddenly, a strange phenomenon in the sky caught Nelson's attention.

As if grabbing a life-saving straw, Nelson immediately yelled exaggeratedly: "Look, Logan-chan, the color of the sky over there is so strange, is it a dark cloud?"

Logan glanced up subconsciously, gave a perfunctory Oh, and then lowered his head again.

But suddenly, a string in Logan's mind seemed to be touched, and he suddenly looked up at the sky with a different color.

Do not!

That is not the sky, but an island!

Logan rushed to the cabin frantically, stood on tiptoes and stared at the black "sky" with wide eyes!

"Island! That's an island!"

Logan roared out these words almost tremblingly.

After Ur reacted, he quickly jumped onto the cabin, glanced at the "sky", and then at the record pointer on his wrist.

A drop of cold sweat ran down Wuer's cheek in an instant, and his pupils shrank to the size of pinholes in an instant because of fear!

Ur grabbed Logan's arm and barely stabilized his violently trembling body. His eyes kept on looking at the huge monster hidden in the night, and a huge sense of absurdity and dizziness hit his brain violently, making the experienced old navigator tremble with his lips, but he couldn't say a word.

Logan patted Old Ur's back with a complicated expression, turned his head and shouted at Nelson, "Bring some water!"

"oh oh!"

Nelson quickly brought up a glass of water, and fed it into Ur's mouth under Logan's gesture.

"Really, how grown-up you are, you still need someone to feed you!"

Nelson shook off the drops of water on his hands with disgust on his face, and stood on the other side of Logan.

Ur didn't care about Nelson's words. He let go of Logan's hand, staggered and walked a few steps forward slowly, pointed at the huge island across the sky and said with a pale face: "This island is Efe Island! The island of prosperity and abundance that advocates the culture of lions!"

Logan closed his eyes in pain. He guessed it when he just recognized that the "sky" was an island.

On the contrary, Nelson, who was the first to notice the abnormality, was a little confused about the situation. He asked Wuer in surprise: "Is Efe Island a floating island?"

"No," Ur turned around, and said with a lonely expression, "Efe Island is an island located in the Sterian Sea. I spent three years here when I was young!"

Nelson blinked and asked, "Then why is it floating in the air?"

"It's the golden lion!" Logan answered Ur's question.

"Owner of Piao Piao Fruit, a legendary pirate once as famous as Pirate King Roger and Whitebeard, and captain of the Flying Pirates, Shiki the Golden Lion!"

"The peerless murderer who once drove Roger to a desperate situation in the naval battle of Ait Vol, and who made a scene in the Navy Headquarters when Roger was executed!"

Logan looked up at the sky, and said quietly: "Besides him, I really can't think of anyone else who can float an entire island!"

Ur's footsteps swayed, and he turned pale in shock: "It's him! The old man remembered that the navy re-issued his reward order two months ago, and this demon has returned to the sea!"

Logan's reaction to Ur was a bit strange, it seemed a little too aggressive, had he seen the golden lion before?

But before he had time to ask, Ur confessed himself.

Ur wiped the sweat off his face and smiled miserably, "I'm not afraid of your jokes if I say it. About 20 years ago, the old man followed the captain of the year and saw the golden lion once on an island. At that time, my captain, a powerful man who suppressed a country in the North Sea, was pierced through the heart by the golden lion with just one move. But we boys were all kneel down by the aura of the golden lion, trembling non-stop. In the end, we didn't even dare to collect the captain's body and ran away in a panic. "

After Ur finished speaking, he laughed bitterly in a low voice like self-deprecating.

Logan patted him on the back in understanding, and Nelson did not laugh at Ur, but secretly admired Ur for his courage to admit it.

"A monster that can play with an entire island with applause. Anyone who encounters such an enemy will run away."

Nelson patted his chest as a matter of course, indicating that Ur didn't need to keep worrying about it.

"Wait," Nelson suddenly reacted halfway through the photo, pointing to the vast sea behind him and said, "Those navy warships just now came to catch the golden lion, right?"

Logan nodded solemnly, "And it's not just that, I think there must be advanced naval forces on Efe Island ahead!"

"Then what should we do now, do we still have to go to the island?"

???

Logan touched Nelson's forehead suspiciously, and compared it with his own.

It's not burning, why did you start talking nonsense?

Nelson shook his head and said, "Logan-chan, you haven't answered my question yet."

Logan was directly laughed angrily, and said angrily: "Get on the hammer, let alone whether you can go up, even if you can go up, do you dare to go up?"

Nelson replied with a serious face: "As long as you go, I will go!"

Logan raised his forehead.

"Okay! Don't be poor, and Ur, cheer up!"

Logan patted Ur on the shoulder, pointed to the recording pointer and said calmly: "Choose another path, and run before we enter the fall range of Efe Island!"

Ur quickly calmed down and decisively chose the left path.

Logan didn't procrastinate, and immediately dragged Nelson out of the cabin, picked up the wooden paddle and looked for the direction!

Ur also jumped down immediately, and when he wanted to take the wooden oar from Logan, Logan pushed him away.

Logan said: "Neither of us have ever been to Efe Island, and you've been there for three years, let's finally give it away."
