The Sirius immediately turned around and headed towards Svalbard Island.

That's one of the advantages of sailing the seas; if you want to go to a certain island, all you need is a nautical chart and a navigation device.

Unlike in the Grand Line, where you need Eternal Pose stores the magnetic field of a specific island to get to it.

While navigator Sirius's seafaring skills weren't exactly outstanding, they had been tested by the storms of the New World, making him adept at both smooth and fast navigation across the seas.

However, Svalbard Island is quite a distance from their location, and it will take some time to get there.

Bepo was extremely anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

He's really drifted too far.

However, looking at it from another angle, if he hadn't drifted this far, he certainly wouldn't have encountered Sirius and the others.

"Could the captain be dead?!"

Bepo was so anxious that he burst into tears.

"There's no need to worry so much, you idiot," Ulti scoffed. "Didn't you say that Doflamingo bastard went to your captain for treatment? You'd definitely spare his life!"

"Yes, that's right!"

Bepo then Satori what was going on.

The captain may be in danger, but his life is not in immediate danger.

Sirius sighed inwardly, "Of course, how could Doflamingo possibly bear to kill Law?"

He's been relentlessly pursuing the Op-Op Fruit.

However, Luo may be safe, but the others might be in a different situation.

But there's no way to speed it up now, so all we can do is wish them the best.

About a day and a half later, an island finally appeared before Sirius and his companions.

This is Svalbard Island.

As soon as the boat docked, Bepo couldn't wait to jump overboard.

"We've finally arrived! Captain, I've come to rescue you!!"

Sirius watched his hurried retreating figure and shook his head almost imperceptibly.

It took so long to reach Svalbard Island, and countless days had passed since Doflamingo and his crew landed there.

How could those guys still be on the island?

"Let's go down and take a look."

Sirius Road.

Doflamingo and his crew may have already left, but at least some clues can still be found here.

Everyone disembarked and followed Bepo towards the island.

Before long, they had reached the edge of a town.

The town is now dilapidated, as if it has been completely turned upside down, with ruins everywhere.

A large number of people were rummaging through the ruins, like scavengers searching for valuable items in a garbage dump.

"How could it have turned out like this!"

Bepo plopped down on the ground.

"Is this... Joy Town?"

Yamato walked over, looked around, and said, "It's completely a ruin now."

"It wasn't like this before! It shouldn't be like this!" Bepo cried.

Sirius also sighed, thinking that Doflamingo, that bastard, really didn't do anything that involved humans.

On the way here, Bepo told them about the town.

Although this city isn't particularly prosperous, it's still quite lively and bustling.

The people in the town were incredibly warm and friendly. Even though Bepo and his crew kept talking about going to sea to become pirates, the islanders remained very kind to them.

But now only ruins and sorrow remain here.

"Bepo! You're back!"

A man covered in bandages noticed their arrival. He staggered over, patted Bepo's body for a moment, and then let out a long sigh of relief.

"I'm so glad you're alright!"

He gritted his teeth again, "It's all my fault, I gave those guys directions! That's why things turned out this way!"

"This isn't your fault!"

As soon as the aged voice rang out, a man in a wheelchair, also covered in bandages, came over, pushing the wheelchair. Judging from the voice, he was an old man.

"Nobody expected things to turn out this way."

"Yes, Uncle Wolff!"

Bepo lunged forward, but stopped abruptly as he approached the old man, afraid to touch him and hurt him again.

"Uncle Wolff, are you alright?"

"He won't die,"

The man called Wolf shook his head. "But Luo was taken away by them."

"What!"

Bepo screams.

"We tried to stop it, but as you can see, the town has become like this."

The man who had spoken earlier sighed, "If Luo hadn't threatened to kill himself, I'm afraid everyone would be dead."

"How could this be—"

Bepo's eyes were filled with tears.

"So, which direction did they go?" Sirius asked.

Who are these people?

The man looked at Sirius and asked Bepo.

"Oh, they're a very good bunch of pirates, they've come to help rescue their captain!"

Bepo quickly replied.

Wolf recognized Sirius's face. "You are—"

However, he didn't say it aloud, but instead remarked with great emotion, "I never expected Bepo to be able to seek your help."

"Because we have a busybody idiot around here."

Sirius said with a smile.

"Who's the idiot?!" This time, the idiot finally realized what was going on.

"I see."

Wolf nodded slightly, then straightened his back and bowed deeply to Sirius in his wheelchair.

"Then I'll leave it to you. That child, Luo, is a very, very good child. He shouldn't have to suffer like this anymore."

"I don't have much to thank you with, only a ship that I've been preparing for many years. If you don't mind, please accept it."

"Boat?"

Sirius raised an eyebrow.

"Please follow me."

Wolf led Sirius and the others through the town to a cave on the island, and then down to a deep pool at the bottom of the cave, where Sirius saw the ship he had described.

Floating silently in the dark pool, its bright yellow color contrasts sharply with its surroundings.

"Is this... a ship?"

Yamato exclaimed in astonishment, "There's not even a mast!"

This ship is fully enclosed, bright yellow in color, and has an all-metal hull, making it completely different from the mainstream ships on the high seas.

"This is a ship that I finally finished building after a lot of hard work,"

Wolf's tone held a hint of pride, "It can sail without sails and even dive underwater! Its hull, made of a special metal, makes it incredibly sturdy; even a warship's cannon fire cannot destroy it!"

"Amazing!!"

Yamato's eyes lit up.

Even Jack was slightly moved.

In that case, this trip can't be considered a loss.

After all, the advantages of having such a ship are simply too great.

The navy has no chance of finding them at sea.

"Please accept this ship, Mr. Sirius."

Wolf said solemnly, "Whether or not we find Luo, consider this ship a token of our gratitude."

"We'll find it."

Sirius Road.

Otherwise, I wouldn't feel entirely comfortable accepting this thank-you gift.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you."

Wolf, "Judging from their direction, they're heading towards Milano Island. Use this ship to pursue them; it should be much faster than a regular sailing vessel."

"I've already put the operating manual in the cabin; it's not difficult."

"Then, let's set off."

Sirius Road.

The supplies were loaded onto the ship, the hatches were closed, the submarine submerged, and it sailed into the sea through the caves beneath the island.

The great chase has begun.

Thanks to the three big book friends 'Wu Bu Zhao' and 'Ga Author's Lao 2' for the 100-point reward, and to the big book friend '20180226124234694' for the 500-point reward!
