Chapter 149: Drifting Inds
Watching her running out, Ian smiled bitterly. Why is this girl so impulsive?
Supporting his body, Ian touched the mask on his face and found it was still there!
This means that even if he sank into the sea and fell into aa, and then, after being rescued by the ves, they did not take off his mask to see how he looked.
Maybe they dont know his reason for wearing a face mask, but it doesnt hinder their respect for him. It really shocked Ian a little bit, because he found that the ves who he rescued were far more grateful to him beyond imagination.
It also proves the side of how miserable their life was when they were ves
Lifting the quilt and looking around, Ian found that his legs were covered with bandages, as was his left hand, and the clothes and trousers he wore were washed and neatly folded and ced on the cab beside his bed. It may have been that girl who was beside him who washed then. Not only that, but also the little treasure chest with Devil Fruit on it and the ss bubble stolen from the secret ce.
Ian stretched out his hand, picked up the ss bubble, and looked carefully at the crystal chip soaked in it.
During his conversation with Aokiji, Ian also realized that the crystal chip in it was the identity chip of that Celestial Dragon, which seems to be extremely important to them.
Ian didnt expect that his original intuition really came true. This was really a very important thing for them. If he didnt take this identity chip into ount, Aokiji might have fired all his powerful abilities and killed him!
It was actually a fluke to hurt Aokiji with the ck Dragon wave. This was mainly because the ck Dragons Hellfire caused the restraining effect on Aokiji. If it was not Aokiji, but Kizaru or Akainu, Ian may be dead now.
At the thought of this, Ian was afraid for a while.
Ian supported himself to get out of bed. He took his clothes and pants and put them on. Then he put the identity chip of the Celestial Dragon into his trouser pocket and carried it with him. As for the small box of the Devil Fruit, Ian felt uneasy.
It is true that the Devil Fruit has been obtained, but how to send it back to the East Blue was a problem.
Do I have to cross the Calm Belt and go back to my vige? (T/N: Take Zoro with you this time, you Madafaka)
Forget it. Ill think about itter. Ive to go out now and have a look.
Ian just opened the door, only to see the girl came in with a te.
Ah, why did you get up? The girl said in surprise, Go back and rest!
No, after sleeping for so many days, my bones are stiff! Ian smiled and said to her, Give me the food, and Im too hungry!
When Ian sat back on the bed, he found that the te was full of liquid food.
He understood why, so he didnt mind. After lifting his mask, he took the spoon and began to eat it. As a result, he found that the foods were very delicious.
You cooked it!!? Ian asked the girl with some surprise.
No, it was Chef Matthew! The girl said with a smile: I heard that before he became a ve, he was a royal cook in the West Blue!
Royal chef! Ian was a little surprised and said, Such a man has turned into a ve?
The girl said: its not a surprising thing. You may not know that among us, there are even princesses from some small countries! They could be ves!
Even the princess? Ian was even more surprised. The F**K, these Celestial Dragons are that powerful?
: Dont say this, you must eat it quickly!
The girl said with a smile: We can talk moreter, benefactor, please eat now quickly!
Ian nodded and asked her: Oh, by the way, whats your name?
Im Margaret! The girl said.
Nice knowing you, Margaret, you can call me Ian. Dont call me benefactor in the future. Im not used to it! Ian said to her.
Margaret didnt speak after that, she just smiled and watched Ian eat.
I dont know if its because I havent eaten for three days, or because of the hard physical training and practice I have been doing, I always feel that Im eating more and more nowadays, and only after eating five tes of food, I feel a little full.
Margaret helped him by taking out the te, and Ian put on his mask again, and walked out of the room, intending to go to the deck.
But unexpectedly, just after opening the cabin door, Ian heard a song outside.
Yo-hohoho, Yo-hohoho.. Binkusu no sake wo, todoke ni yuku yo! Umikaze kimakase namimakase! (Going to deliver Binks Sake! Following the sea breeze! Riding on the waves!)
Ian was stunned and looked closely, and found that the people on the deck, whether they were scrubbing the deck, repairing the ships side, or arranging the cables, wereughing and humming the song along with the tune.
Binks Wines, of course, is a song that Ian knows very well. This was the favorite song for sailors traveling on the sea. It can be said that it has been circting for many years, but it has been prosperous for a long time. When Ian was on Aces ship, Ian heard Jimmy singing it more than once.
At this time, the weather, the blue sky, the sun shining on the faces of these freed ves, they sang this song cheerfully, even Ian, who was musically blind, can hear their happy mood from the song.
The appearance of Ian startled the people on the deck. They recognized Ian at a nce and immediately said, Savior, why did youe out?
Margaret had informed them of his awakening, but they didnt rush to the cabin to see Ian for fear of disturbing his rest, but they didnt expect Ian toe out by himself.
With the cry of surprise, arge figure came running on the deck.
Garchu!!!
It turned out to be the ck bear from the Mink Tribe. As soon as he rushed up, he stuck his big face on Ians face, and started cuddling.
This was a way for the Mink Tribe to say hello or expressing gratitude to their favorite people, and in this way, the big ck bear mink was not satisfied, but also vigorously rubbed on Ians face.
Although Ian knew this, it was really his first time epting this kind of etiquette. It was a bit ufortable for a while, but he knew that the ck bear mink was being kind, so he could only ept it with someughter.
The people on the deck seemed to notice Ians embarrassment, and they couldnt helpughing.
Where are we now? Finally, he pacified the ck bear mink, went to the side of the ship and looked at it. He found that now the ship was leaning against a coast and looked at it. There wasnd ahead, so he asked the people on the deck.
Benefactor! A big man with a tattoo on his face replied, We are on a desert ind. our brothers of the Fish-men tribe brought us here!
With his narration, Ian knew that after he rushed down the Red Line and reaching the estuary, many people fell into the water, so those who were okay at that time all jumped into the sea to save others. But after the rescue, they found that the rudder had been broken, and the ship could not be controlled at all.
Worried about the pursuit by the Marines, the fish-men ves consulted and jumped into the water again, pushing the ship forward from behind.
Although they have great strength and the sea was also their home court, but after all, the process of pushing the ship by manpower cannotst for too long, that is to say, they cant escape too far.
But fortunately, these fish-men know that this desert ind was very close to the Red Line. Their hometown, the Fish-man Ind, was just below the Red Line. It can be said that they are very familiar with the sea area nearby, so they brought the ship here to be able to repair the damage.
Although it was very close to the Red Line, the fish-men were not worried about being found by the Marines at all. In their opinion, this desert ind was actually an ind that has just emerged.
New World has a lot of seabed volcanoes. These seabed volcanoes often form new inds. The ind they stayed in was formed in this way. It originated from a volcanic spray more than a decade ago, and such newly formed inds were often inds without any maic force.
In other words, this ce cant be found through the Log Pose!
There were many simr situations in the New World. The newly formed inds were one kind of inds, and some are inds without maic force, or erratic, moving inds, etc., if they wanted to reach these inds, they either have to know the general orientation and coordinates, or they could find them through the Vivre Card paper of life, of course, provided that there was apanion holding the paper of life on this ind.
In the New World, its very difficult for the marines to catch a pirate. The Log Pose used here has be three needles Log Pose, and each needle represents a different ind. In the pursuit, the marines have no idea which ind the pirate will go to. They could only pursue them by sending arge number of patrol ships to find a trail.
This was one of the reasons why the power of the marines has been greatly weakened in the new world. When facing the pursuit of the Marines, many pirates will flee to such an ind. Only the indigenous people would know where they are, but the marines would be lost.
This was the case with the ind where Ians ship docked. Its very close across the Red Line, but they werent worried about being found by the Marines. Thend base of the sea hasnt been stable for a long time since the ind was formed, so its also an ind that will drift. The maps of the marines cant record their specific location. Only the fish-men who often travel in these sea areas would know how to find these inds.
Listening to their exnation, Ian was relieved. No wonder why he doesnt see a trace of the Marines after waking up from a three daysa.
Our savior has woken up, lets have a banquet! A ve who was estimated to be a former pirate, he suggested.
As a result, his proposal immediately won everyones approval
