Chapter 406 Finding Pure Gold
Chapter 406 Finding Pure Gold
New World, El Caméra Island waters.
"This lanternfish actually remembers this area of the sea and comes back to patrol every few years."
On the even larger 【New Ark Proverb】, Luo Ji stood at the bow, gazing at the sea below.
An island that was missing half came into view.
This is Elkem Island, the dreamlike island that was half-eaten by a giant lanternfish.
This technological island, which once occasionally produced pure gold.
Even today, countless treasure hunters and agents of the World Government are still searching for the whereabouts of pure gold.
However, two hundred years later, many ordinary people and treasure hunters have come to regard pure gold as a legend.
Just like the residents of Gaya Island, after four hundred years, they no longer believe in the existence of the Sky Island.
This time, Luo Ji personally took action, and even Yamato, Shiryu of the Rain, Enel, and others who were chasing down great pirates all over the New World came to join in the fun.
I want to see what Luo Ji is up to with all this big fuss.
These cadres, who were focused on fighting, were really unaware of the news about pure gold.
Surrounded by a large number of fish-men, sea monsters, and sea kings, the giant lanternfish was forced to surface.
"Is the God-King going to personally deal with this giant fish?"
Enel, carrying the golden staff in one hand, squatted on the bow of his flying warship, the Infinite Earth, with lightning crackling around his body.
I could kill that mere island-swallowing lanternfish with my own hands.
There was absolutely no need for Luo Ji to take action.
"Is there really pure gold?"
Shiryu of the Rain had heard some legends about pure gold before, but he wasn't very interested in it.
Conquest and slaughter suit him better.
"Lord Luo has become even stronger!"
King the Wildfire's silver hair fluttered in the wind, and flames blazed on his black wings. With the destruction of the Celestial Dragons and the World Government, he no longer needed to worry about others coveting him.
Finally, I can openly take off my mask and live freely on the sea.
Now that Kaido has gone to pursue the realm of gods, he has left the Beasts Expeditionary Pirates to him.
He must strive to maintain the reputation of the world's strongest conquest group.
The other squads are eyeing the top spot.
When Kaido of the Beasts completely abandons the Beast Slaying Corps, that will be the time for all the divisions to challenge the top tier.
Even King the Wildfire wasn't confident he could retain his position as the top power.
"oi~~!! Luo Ji, take me with you~"
Yamato shouted towards the New Ark Proverb from her own airship.
Robin flicked his finger, and arms appeared on the deck, slapping the ground to summon a pink teleportation circle.
Yamato, who was still waving, appeared directly in the teleportation array.
It's that convenient, direct, and brutal.
After all, this teleportation ability was so powerful that even the God Knight Junzi could forcibly teleport the Saint Somaz, who was still changing clothes, and the Saint Kirin Gom, who was sleeping, to Elbaf.
"Hehe, Sashiberdana, Robin-chan."
Yamato excitedly rushed towards Robin and hugged her tightly, looking just like a little child.
The Pirate Empress glanced at Yamato's changes, checking if she had fallen behind Yamato.
After all, among Luo Ji's women, only these two were candidates for God.
Hancock considered Yamato to be the most formidable rival to the main wife.
As for women like Robin, Violet, Shirley, and Baby5, they lack the ability and qualifications to compete with them.
But soon.
A sweet, soft voice made the Pirate Empress feel a great threat once again.
It's really huge!
The massive, snow-white mountain peak shook so much that even Hancock clenched her fists.
"Brother Luo Ji~, please don't kill Lord Benpoli~"
The enormous Princess Shirahoshi gently pleaded with Luo Ji, "Benpoli is the name of this giant lanternfish."
This island-swallowing lanternfish has a lifespan comparable to that of giant sea monsters.
After all, the giant lanternfish from two hundred years ago is almost unchanged from now.
As Poseidon, the sea god, it's standard practice for the mermaid princess Shirahoshi to communicate with sea creatures and fish.
Even ordinary mermaids can communicate with sea monsters and fish.
Poseidon's symbol is his ability to communicate with and command sea kings.
"it is good!"
Seeing Bai Xing's delicate, tearful expression, Luo Ji readily agreed to her request.
But the next moment, an exaggerated burst of Conqueror's Haki pressed down directly on the Island-Swallowing Lanternfish that had just emerged from the water.
Black and red lightning filled the sky, changing the color of heaven and earth.
Even a colossal, thousand-year-old behemoth like the Island-Swallowing Lanternfish couldn't withstand Luo Ji's god-level Conqueror's Haki.
To everyone's astonishment, the island-swallowing goldfish rolled its eyes back and floated on the surface of the sea.
"I'll be back soon!"
Luo Ji flew directly onto the Island-Swallowing Lanternfish and covered it with the awakened power of the Scroll Fruit.
Luo Ji disappeared directly from a scroll-like portal beneath his feet and entered the interior of the giant lanternfish.
Luffy's Sun God Nika form can imbue Kaido with rubber properties, allowing him to manipulate him at will.
Similarly, Luo Ji's awakened ability can also directly grant attributes to living beings.
Robin has already led a group of women, with a bounty of billions, to give to the mermaid who found the giant lanternfish, as well as the fish-men and mermaids who participated in the encirclement and expulsion.
This made countless fishmen extremely happy.
Even receiving millions or tens of millions of Pelés could greatly improve their lives.
Inside the giant lanternfish, as his Observation Haki spread, Luo Ji easily found the stunned Mischina Olga and Mischina Asie.
After waking Asie, Luo Ji took Olga and promised to treat the terminally ill girl. Asie, both wary of Luo Ji and eager to cure his daughter's terminal illness, had no choice but to lead the way to the pure gold he had hidden.
After Luo Ji obtained the pure gold, he immediately led the two away from the lanternfish's giant stomach, returned to the outside through the scroll gate, and then returned to the New Ark Proverb.
"Take her down for treatment; it's an incurable disease of the emperor from two hundred years ago."
Luo Ji only gave a hint, and Mansherry and Violet knew how to treat the little girl.
After all, over the past two hundred years, there have long been specific effective medicines for this incurable disease of emperor fever.
This ambitious but ultimately unsuccessful "operation" left Enel and his crew extremely disappointed.
I wish I hadn't come to join the fun.
There was no fight at all.
Seeing Bai Xing's request and the trampoline game, Luo Ji did not continue to attack the glowing lantern of the Island-Swallowing Lanternfish.
However, Luo Ji left teleportation scroll marks on the lanternfish's body and inside.
If we run out of pure gold in the future, we can consider this giant, glowing lantern that is suspected to be made of pure gold.
The news that Luo Ji had obtained the pure gold circulated only within the organization.
When Shiryu of the Rain, Aramu, and the others learned of the existence of pure gold, they couldn't help but get excited.
After all, with more hope of immortality, they would also have a chance to obtain pure gold.
They felt their hopes of advancing to godhood were slim.
With the immortality bestowed upon him by Luo Ji, his life will be completely in Luo Ji's hands.
Even so, with the limited number of spots available, they might not even get a chance to participate.
After all, the Five Elders, who were once high and mighty, were the envy of the entire world.
Now that we have pure gold, even if we can't ascend to godhood or be granted immortality, we can still obtain a long life.
Now, the high-ranking officials and powerful figures of the Luo Ji World Government saw a glimmer of hope for immortality and desired Luo Ji's reward.
