MTL - People In Pirates: I Can Copy Any Talent-Chapter 26
And to become the One Piece, that is, to reach the end point Ralph Drew, you need to go through the barrier of the Red Earth Continent twice...
Suddenly, an absurd and inexplicable idea emerged from Neuer's mind.
Could it be... The Red Earth Continent was man-made?
The purpose, perhaps, is to protect the secret of the ultimate island—Ralph Drew.
Neuer shook his head vigorously, looked at the upside-down mountain gate already in sight, and laughed at himself:
"I've thought about it too much. If it's for protection, what's the point of opening a hole and adding a ladder here in the Reversing Mountain?"
Chapter 41 Separation and Agreement
The desert country, Alabasta.
As one of the superpowers on the great sea route, Alabasta has been in a bad situation in recent months.
It was originally a desert country, and there has been no drop of water for several months.
But the strange thing is that Albana, the capital of the Alabasta royal family, has been raining frequently recently.
Many citizens were suspicious, but out of trust in the king, they did not think deeply.
In addition to Albana, there is another place that also escaped the drought.
In the city called Rainland, it also rains here, and in recent days, another big man has come to sit here.
One of the Shichibukai under the king, Sand Crocodile.
Since Crocodile took over here, the invasion of pirates has been almost zero, and he has also established his own base camp here, the largest casino in the country "Rain Banquet".
The citizens and the royal family didn't know at this time that the weirdness in the kingdom these days was all planned by this "national hero".
And his true identity is Mr. 0, the leader of the criminal organization "Baroque Work Society" that attempts to incite civil unrest in the country.
Crocodile sat in a dark room with a cigar in his mouth, staring gloomyly at the fish tank in front of him.
It is said to be a fish tank, but it is actually very big, and his pet crocodile is kept in it.
In the dead environment, Crocodile suddenly said in a low voice: "What happened to that thing?"
In the shadows, a mature and obviously alienated voice sounded:
"The dancing powder transported by members of the Baroque disguised as a convoy has already been discovered by the man named Kosha, and it only takes time."
As he spoke, a woman in a white cowboy hat and a leather trench coat stepped out of the shadows.
Her skin is a healthy wheat color, her pupils are blue and green, her eyes are deep, her facial features are delicate and charming.
This is a very temperamental beauty. Although she has a smile on her face, it still makes people feel a sense of estrangement from her.
Crocodile grinned and said with a low smile, "Well done."
"My plan is about to start. Alabasta and things like that will be mine."
Crocodile said thoughtfully: "But for this, I need more men..."
"The strongest hunter in the East China Sea, have you found him?"
The woman shook her head lightly, and said, "I've lost track, but intelligence shows that he should be entering the great route."
Crocodile nodded and said, "Just right, take him to Whiskey Peak and talk to him."
"Understood." The woman asked immediately, "What if he doesn't join us?"
"Ah!"
Crocodile smiled heavily, and said to himself, "Let Mr. 5 pass."
"A kid who ran out of the remote East China Sea, does he think that with a little strength, he can be free in the sea?"
A hint of disgust suddenly appeared in the woman's beautiful eyes without any emotion, she nodded and turned to walk out.
Crocodile's voice sounded behind her:
"Nicole Robin, don't forget our purpose, and don't play tricks."
"You should understand that only Qi Wuhai's identity can keep you temporarily, don't try to escape."
"Besides, where can you go?"
Hearing what he said, Robin didn't react at all, but after it left the room, there was still a trace of loneliness on its face, and then it disappeared in a flash.
…
And on Neuer's side.
Under the pouring rain, Neuer and Ace's boat came to the climbing current that reversed the mountain.
There are five current channels in the Upside Down Mountain, four upwelling currents from all over the world. After climbing up the Upside Down Mountain, one current channel rushes down the mountain to enter the great route.
Two large ships entered the current that reversed the mountain. The strong current violated the laws of nature and flowed upwards.
If Newton came here, his ashes would be thrown into the sea...
The big boat bumped up the high mountain along the current, then reached the top of the mountain, and rushed down at top speed!
The two ships of Neuer and the Spades Pirates broke through the dark clouds, fell from the sky, and fell into the sea.
The turbulence of the boat finally ended, and Ace raised his head excitedly and shouted: "It's so exciting!"
Neuer stood up like a drowned rat, leaning on the railing, and said, "This is much better than a roller coaster."
Neuer took out a dry towel and wiped his head, looking around curiously.
This is Gemini Cape, but why isn't Rab's big whale here?
Shaking his head, Neuer didn't think too much about it, that guy can't be exposed to the sea all day.
The two groups packed up their boats, and it was time to say goodbye.
Neuer moved some of the supplies on the ship to Ace and the others, and said: "The great voyage is not as good as before, you should hurry up and find a navigator."
Ace nodded and said with a cheerful smile, "Take care too, and see you at sea later!"
Starting from the starting point of the Great Route Gemini Cape, there are seven magnetic routes, and the two decided to set off here separately.
"Although the routes are different, they will all meet once at the Chambord Islands. How about we compare and see who gets there first?"
Neuer stretched out his fist and challenged Ace with a smile on his face.
Ace stretched out his fist and touched Neuer hard, and said with a smile: "Just compare, whoever loses next time will be treated!"
"Okay! It's a deal!"
The two bumped their fists to make a bet, and then Ace turned back to his boat, smiled and waved goodbye to Neuer.
Neuer waved his hands desperately and shouted: "Goodbye!"
Until the boat slowly moved away, Neuer's boat became quiet again.
But he was a little uncomfortable.
Neuer sighed, and laughed at himself: "It feels really cheap. It's annoying when they are there, but when they left, I felt a little uncomfortable."
He is not a person who likes to be lively, but Neuer likes the excitement to be right in front of his eyes, which can also make him feel warm.
After sighing for a long time, Neuer finally came out of the state of suppressing the clouds.
It seems that I have to find a companion to sail with me, this is too boring.
Neuer packed up his mood, raised the sails, and started sailing again according to the recording pointer.
His original destination was Whiskey Peak, which is full of Crocodile eyeliners.
Maybe, where to find the permanent pointer to Alabasta.
But after starting the voyage, Neuer realized that he couldn't even find the location of the Whiskey Mountain...
Just when Neuer scratched his head and didn't know what to do, the assist from Crocodile finally came.
On the sea, a boat slowly approached, and the watchman on board saw Neuer's boat and shouted, "I found it, the guy the boss wants to recruit!"
Neuer, who was sensitive, heard the movement and looked at the people on the ship suspiciously.
There was a man on the boat standing beside the boat, rubbing his hands eagerly, and said in a friendly greeting, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Neuer?"
Chapter 42 Whiskey Mountain
Neuer raised his eyebrows and asked, "I am, who are you?"
The people on the boat laughed even more, and said, "We are bounty hunters from Baroque Works, and I would like to invite you to the Whiskey Peak."
"Baroque Work Club?" Neuer asked suspiciously.
Isn't that Crocodile's company? I haven't gone to him yet, but he sent it to my door?
"But, I don't know you?" Neuer asked.
The man smiled and said, "You are the strongest bounty hunter in the East China Sea, we should entertain you."
"Let me introduce, I am Mr. 9, our company members are all called by code names."
Neuer looked at him thoughtfully. Is Mr. 9 this guy in the original book?
How could he remember Mr. 9, he seemed to be a guy with a number on his face, and he was Princess Vivi's partner...
Could it be that he was fired by Lao Sha later?
But Neuer didn't have the time to take care of their company's affairs, and since he had a ready-made leader, he didn't have to bother.
Neuer said: "Thanks then, let's lead the way."
"Oh, good!"
Mr. 9 responded with a smile, and turned his head after speaking, with a sinister smile on his wretched face.
Just before that, the boss of the company suddenly informed him that he wanted to receive a newcomer.
The key is that the boss said that this newcomer is much better than him, let him take his place, and then become Mr.10 himself!
Why? !
Mr.9's facial features are distorted.
He wants to get rid of this person who blocked his way to promotion!
Although Mr. 9's mood swings were very subtle, Neuer could clearly perceive them.
Neuer chuckled, but didn't take it seriously.
After finding a blindfold and putting it on, Neuer lay comfortably on the deck.
These weak chickens always think that they are Monkey King, who can turn the sky upside down.
But how much does Brother Hou hang up? In the end, he was fined to go to the bottom of Wuzhi Mountain for urinating and urinating illegally...
With the malicious Mr.9 leading the way, Neuer also found his way to Whiskey Mountain.
Whiskey Peak, known as "the town that welcomes pirates".
But in fact, most of them are bounty hunters here.
They focused on the stupid green pirates who were going to the great waterway, and gathered here to get a large amount of bounty.
Many young and inexperienced pirates died because of this and became their meals.
Among other things, it is a branch of the secretive criminal organization Baroque Works.
That is the development site of Crocodile.
Neuer was sent to the island by everyone, and he couldn't help but exclaim when he saw the mountain that looked like a cactus.
There are no wonders in the world, and there are mountains that grow like this.
But the "cactus needles" on it are all tombstones, which is really a sight...
Mr.9 greeted warmly: "Mr. Neuer, please, we have prepared delicious food for you."
"That's good, let's go." Neuer said cheerfully.
Mr. 9 welcomed Neuer into the town, and a table of wine and meat had already been set up in one of the rooms.
"Wow!" Neuer's eyes lit up, and he rushed up to eat.
