One Piece – Thundergod Marine-Chapter 131 Knock Up Stream Part 1

Jaya island, Oak Tavern.

This tavern, which has been renovated several times, continues the tradition of serving a glass of bad liquor at 100 Belly. It was once the favorite place for island residents to gather after a busy day.

However, the waves that came after the Pirate Era changed everything, and there is no place for the residents here.

Most ordinary people were forced to move out of this island, leaving only pirates and shady people here. This old tavern received many people on a daily basis and their customers ranged from a fisherman to a criminal.

It is worth mentioning that now it is the Son-in-Law of the former boss who has taken over the Oak Tavern. The boss and his daughter died in a shipwreck.

Different people will have different views on how the Father-Daughter pair died in a shipwreck.

“Those Marine Bastards!!”

At this moment, in the Oak Tavern, a drunken pirate opened his bottle of beer and yelled: “These assholes! Why only they can go! We also want to go to Sky Island!!”

This remark attracted the attention of a group of people who agreed with the Drunken Pirate. It was not just the pirates, as there were many merchants and people who wanted to go to Sky Island.

The blockade established by the Marines made them gritted their teeth with hatred, and the Pirates hated Tsuru and Sengoku so much that they wanted to feed them to dogs.

But, faced with strong ships and cannons, even if they add all of them together, they may not be the Marines’ opponents and angry they may be but suicidal they were not.

The Marine Soldiers who initially arrived here were not really an opponent of the combined might of people here.

But the people here didn’t combine their strength and the Marines were able to call for reinforcement from the Headquarters and the nearby Marine Branch.

So now there was nothing these people could do against the Marines!

Soon, someone wasn’t able to hold back as he jumped out and sneered.

“Knock it off, you guys…”

The Pirate who jumped out rolled his eyes in disdain as he spoke: “What if the Marines allows others to go? Only the Marine owns the Sky Island Ship that can take people there. How will you build one or even drive one to go there?”

“I’ve inquired about it. Those who want to go to the Sky Island would either take a hot air balloon from the Seven-Star Island on the first route to a sea of ??clouds a few hundred meters high and rush through the White Sea channel to reach the Sky Island…

Or they would come to Jaya Island to gamble on their lives and wait for the Knock Up Stream and ride it to the Sky Island!”

“They would either all die or they would all survive!”

The man “banged” the wine glass heavily on the table and gritted his teeth: “Fuck, we can’t even leave and we can’t go to the Sky Island.”

Although this person had spoken these words in a drunken stupor but his words are also a reality.

It is unrealistic for most pirates to return to the starting point and change to the first route. They are newcomers who have just stepped into the Grand Line for a few months, and there are many factors that do not allow them to retreat.

So if they want to go then there is only one way to go.

They could take their ship with them and gamble their life on the chance that they would survive the vast ocean or the Knock Up Stream!

At this moment, a person rushed into the Tavern with a panicked look on his face. He was dressed in burlap and linen, with guns and scimitars around his waist, he looked like a typical pirate.

Looking at the people in the tavern, the man swallowed his saliva before he yelled in one direction: “Ship… Captain! The Knock Up Stream… is coming!!!”

Shuā!

There was no sound in the Tavern as everyone quieted down, the Pirate Captain glared at his crew and hurried out with a group of people.

If someone wants to spend their life to gamble then they have to know in advance when there will be KKnock Up Stream.

In the vicinity of Jaya Island, the Knock Up Stream will occur four to five times a month, which is a great opportunity for everyone but the position it appears every time is not fixed and the farther ones are not even visible.

If the people hoping to ride the Knock Up Stream can’t prepare in advance and accidentally appear at the centermost location of the Knock Up Stream then it would not be gambling but certain death!

This Pirate Captain navigator has some abilities and he has been regarded by his Captain as an Ace in the dark. But, the Captain didn’t expect this person to make a fuss about things that many people didn’t know and now everyone knew.

After they left, several Pirates recovered from their shock and they glanced at each other before most of them stood up from the table and said.

“Let’s Go!!”

“Inform everyone to be ready! Fuck it all, we are going to stack everything on this. Whether we are able to drink or eat meat or fall to death, everything would be decided by the end of this trip!”

“Quick! Follow them! We only have this chance!”

The huge tavern quickly became empty and quiet in an instant as the people inside ran out while overturning the wine glasses, tables, chairs, and benches.

In the corner, a Young Man who also seemed like a Pirate was sleeping. He is wearing an orange cowboy hat with two badges of “Smile” and “Sad” on the brim suddenly exploded and woke up.

He glanced at the empty tavern, which was still lively just now and he scratched his head with a strange expression on his face.

“Huh? What about people? Oh No, Did I overslept again?!” ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺
