Thriller Bark

The Sirius entered a thick fog.

The fog was so thick that visibility was only about ten meters. Beyond that, all you could see was a vast expanse of white fog; nothing else could be seen.

"This is the Thriller Bark! It's like heaven!"

Yamato clung to the ship's railing, looking around, even though he couldn't see anything.

"What do you mean by 'like heaven'?" Ulti pouted.

What is hidden inside the fog?

Maria smiled and said, "Didn't Black just say that a large number of ships disappear here every year?"

"Perhaps this is a hunting ground for some kind of monster."

Hiyori her slender fingers and offered a conjecture, "Are they still spying on us, preparing to swallow us whole?"

"Huh? Really?"

Bepo was startled and immediately grabbed Law's arm, trembling as he cried out, "Captain, let's get out of here right now!"

Luo shook his head helplessly, "Idiot, she's talking nonsense."

"Yeah?"

Is this really nonsense?

A smile played on Sirius's lips.

That's not necessarily true.

"Sirius!"

Yamato turned around and said to Sirius, "This is the Thriller Bark."

Sirius nodded. "Yes."

"Hehe." Yamato smiled expectantly.

What are you talking about?

Jack frowned.

It's obvious these two guys are talking about something they don't know.

Is there anything special about this sea area, besides its environmental conditions?

"It's a secret."

Yamato and laughed, like a fox that had stolen a hen, smug and cunning.

Jack rolled his eyes.

You're learning from that bastard Sirius too.

Bump.

Suddenly, the ship bumped into something and made a soft sound.

An ordinary person would have easily missed such a slight sound, but who were these people on the Sirius?

"What is it?"

Yamato immediately looked down over the ship's railing.

"It's a wooden barrel!" she exclaimed in surprise.

"Wooden barrel?"

Sirius raised an eyebrow slightly. "That scene looks familiar," he said. "Ro."

"Don't treat people like porters, Captain."

Luo complained, then the transparent ROOM space opened, and the next second, the wooden barrel on the sea surface appeared on the deck.

A flag with writing on it was stuck in the wooden barrel, but because the flag was wrinkled, the writing was illegible.

"This seems to be some kind of ritual?"

Black asked somewhat uncertainly, "When passing through certain dangerous seas, do we offer sacrifices to appease the sea's anger and ensure safe passage?"

"So, are these offerings?"

Yamato nodded knowingly, stepped forward, and gently smashed open the lid of the wooden barrel with a punch.

Then.

Swoosh.

A dark shadow shot into the sky in an instant, and then exploded very, very high in the air.

An incredibly bright light burst forth, and everyone on the deck couldn't help but cover their eyes.

After a long while, the light finally faded.

"So, this is a sacrificial offering?"

Ulti looked at Black with some suspicion.

"Obviously this isn't it," Jack scoffed.

"It's a trap, isn't it?" Luo said with a laugh, "To guide some guy in the thick fog."

"Interesting, so we're being watched, huh?" Yamato rubbed his hands together Yamato. "Hopefully it's a really tough guy!"

Sirius softly.

This idiot has, to some extent, inherited Teacher Kaido's warlike nature.

But this time, I'm afraid I'll be disappointed.

The guy lurking in the shadows might have been very powerful in the past, but now...

It's just another Crocodile.

"Just wait here,"

Sirius laughed and said, "Let's wait for a lucky one to come knocking on our door."

How could I not be lucky?

To stumble upon such a massive Thriller Bark like this by sheer coincidence, one can only say that guy's luck is off the charts.

The Sirius remained where it was.

However, it wasn't completely stationary. After all, the currents in this area were extremely turbulent, and Black needed to constantly make minor adjustments to the ship to ensure that the Sirius remained in place.

However, Sirius and the others were not kept waiting for long.

"They've arrived."

Sirius looked into the thick fog ahead.

Yamato followed closely behind him, and she noticed it too. "Oh! That's amazing! The scale!"

She sensed even more than Sirius.

Sirius's Observation Haki excels at sensing auras, Yamato excels at observing subtle details.

"He's here? I'd like to see what an unlucky fellow he is." Jack crossed his arms and sneered.

If someone is unlucky and gets randomly selected as one of their group, then that unlucky person can only become the other side.

Something enormous appeared from within the thick fog.

A huge black shadow slowly emerged from behind the white mist, then gradually approached.

"It's huge!"

Bepo's eyes widened. "Could it really be a monster?"

"It's a ship!"

Yamato laughed heartily, "A very, very big ship!"

As they drew closer, the thick fog could no longer conceal the enormous creature.

After getting a clear look at the enormous creature in front of her, Maria couldn't help but exclaim, "Is that really a ship?"

Enormous; the first impression is one of unparalleled enormity.

The main color scheme is gray and black, and the first thing you see is a large door that looks like interlocking teeth.

"It looks more like an island," Hiyori said, agreeing wholeheartedly.

That's true.

That's ridiculously big.

The ship was even surrounded by a wall, making it look extremely imposing.

Click.

With a slightly teeth-grinding sound, the clenched teeth slowly opened.

Sirius smiled. "They're inviting us. Let's go in and take a look."

He glanced at Yamato of anticipation.

I just hope Moria doesn't have a meltdown later.

The Sirius slowly sailed into the mouth of this region.

The ship's name is the Thriller Bark, a vessel from the West Blue, and its owner is a very famous man.

At this moment, in the center of the ship, in a slightly dilapidated ancient castle, the ship's owner saw through Image Den Den Mushi the ship that had just passed through the gate and entered the ship's inner sea.

A unique, all-steel, black ship on the high seas, with Twin Wolves patterns painted on both sides of its hull.

Anyone with even a slight knowledge of the sea will recognize the name of this ship.

"Black Wolf! And White Wolf!!"

In the dim light, the obese man sat up and laughed shrilly, "Hehehehehe! Kaido's prized disciple! And his daughter!"

"Are they here? Have they finally arrived?"

"Kaido, it's time for you, you bastard, to taste the pain of losing your beloved!"

Meanwhile, the Sirius had already docked, and Sirius and his friends landed on the island.

So, what will happen next?
