Chapter 124
Two days ago.
The first half of the Grand Line, Reverse Mountain, Twin Capes.
The weather in the past few days was not too good, and Crocus, the lighthouse watcher at Gemini Point, simply lived in Laboon's belly.
Laboon is an adult island whale. As its name suggests, the whale is as large as a small island when it grows up.
But this island whale named Laboon often hurts itself. In order to treat Laboon’s illness, Crocus, who is also a doctor, built a tunnel and an artificial small in Laboon’s body. Island, so you can observe Laboon’s health at any time.
But as a lighthouse watcher, Crocus would often get out of the small door on the back of Laboon to point out the direction for ships in the nearby Sea Territory.
"It's raining again..."
Suddenly there was a thunder in the sky, just like the trumpet gun in the hands of the referee, the patter of rain follow closely from behind.
"Did you overdose the tranquilizer last time? The child Laboon didn't give me some rations to come in, and I had to let Senior go out fishing by myself."
After returning to the lighthouse, Crocus first observed the sea and found that there were no ships to guide. Then he took out his fishing gear and wanted to see if try one's luck could catch some larger seafood.
The sea under the thick clouds is bleak, and the clear sea water looks like surging oil at this time, full of offensive.
"oh la la ..."
On the dark sea, a king octopus suddenly appeared. Crocus's eyes lit up and he hurried over with his waist bowed.
Just as he was about to start his hands, in the sound of rain in his ears, a rough male voice suddenly sounded: "Onigumo, I will kill you!!!"
What kind of creature is Onigumo? The newest marine species?
Wait... why is there a voice, someone is killed!
Crocus became nervous, until the second roar came from the sea, he finally determined that the direction of the man's voice just now was the location of the king octopus!
In the sea, Wagner, who was a little confused, mistakenly used the flexible tentacles of the king octopus for Onigumo's weird long hair like spider legs.
With the survival instinct remaining in his mind and his resentment towards Onigumo, Wagner vented all his anger on the king octopus.
"Go to death!!!"
Wagner bit the octopus tentacle he was holding in his arms. After tearing a gap, Wagner took one of the octopus The root tentacles were torn off.
The king octopus cried out in pain, and was about to turn around and run away.
It did not expect that a human being in trifling could cause himself to suffer such severe trauma.
"sou! sou! sou!"
The three harpoons pierced the head of the king octopus with the whistling sound of the wind, and the king octopus immediately wilted.
Feeling the strength of the rest of the tentacles weakened rapidly, Wagner was discouraged and his body began to sink into the sea.
Before closing his eyes, he only saw a weird man with feathers on his head moved towards swimming towards himself.
"Oh, it's Human Race..."
......
Two days later.
"You can't eat me!!!"
Wagner woke up from his nightmare, and what he saw was a rather simple and simple cabin.
Hearing the sound from the lighthouse cabin, Crocus walked in: "youngster, are you awake?"
"It turned out to be you..."
Wagner, who had regained his consciousness, finally realized that the weird man with feathers on his head was not a human race eater, but a lighthouse Guardian at Gemini Cape.
He met this Senior when he climbed Reverse Mountain with Hailan Sir from East Blue.
Crocus smiled: "How? Do you know me?"
"Uh...sorry,
I forgot your name. But anyway, Thank you for saving me...""I am a doctor. It is my duty to save people. If you are grateful, you don't have to say more..."
"Sorry!"
Wagner, whose thoughts gradually became clear, finally remembered the whole sequence of events, "Where is my Den Den Mushi?"
"At that time I caught you from the sea At that time, you had nothing on your body except tattered clothes."
"Do you have Den Den Mushi?"
"Why?"
"Please, I have the most urgent thing to inform Marine Headquarters, which is related to the lives of dozens of Marines!"
Although Crocus was once a crew member on the Gol D. Roger ship, But his essence is not Pirate, not even an adventurer.
When Roger first invited him on board, he refused.
When Roger invited him for the second time, he temporarily boarded Roger's Pirate Ship because he agreed with what Roger had done and for some personal matters.
For Crocus, Pirate or Marine, even ordinary navigators, he doesn't care, he only admires those who have an appetite for him.
"Sigh..."
Crocus sighed.
Thinking of Wagner's fate two days ago, he roughly guessed the reason, nothing more than this was another Marine unit that was persecuted by Pirate.
There are too few people like Rumba Pirates and Roger Pirates. The overwhelming majority Pirate in the world is still a bunch of scumbags.
"Here. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"
Crocus handed the old Den Den Mushi who had been with him to Wagner.
The latter didn't even have time to say thank you, so he hurriedly dialed Hailan's number.
……
Marine Headquarters.
Different from the atmosphere that was always full of happy laughter and cheerful voices in the past, Hailan’s Battleship has been shrouded in clouds in recent days.
"Moonlight Pirates" was lost by Onigumo Rear Admiral, and now I don't know where to hide.
Hailan is gearing up with the soldiers, but at this time there is nowhere to release the power full of anger.
"Onigumo Rear Admiral is a bit useless? How can you lose Pirate?"
"don't say this, Pirate is a cunning fox, the most What I am good at is hiding in Tibet. Otherwise, with so many Vice Admiral Rear Admiral in the headquarter, where would a lot of Pirate flow into the New World every year?"
"Ai, Major Wagner was with me in East at the beginning? Blue Loguetown came to the headquarters of the veteran, didn’t expect this time to be wiped out. Lieutenant Buggy and Lieutenant Kuro also came out of East Blue. I don’t know what they would think..."
Hailan turned off the ability of electric field sensing, because he didn't want to listen to these broken thoughts of his subordinates.
He just wants to find the trail of Moonlight Moria, and then use its fresh blood sacrifice to sacrifice the dead soldiers.
Just as Hailan was about to call Kuro and ask him if he had any news about "Moonlight Pirates" in Underworld, Den Den Mushi on the ship called "Blubru".
"News from Moonlight Pirates?"
When everyone held their breath and was ready to set off on Pirate, there was an old man from Den Den Mushi. "Hello, I am the Guardian, Crocus, the lighthouse of Cape Twin Towers, is Sir Hailan here?"
