Blue Sea Pirates and Space Pirates

The Sirius slowly sank, eventually floating not far above the island's surface.

This is a crimson land, fragmented and ravaged by countless ravines, shrouded in a sandstorm that obscures any view of the distance.

"It's truly desolate."

Within the Haki shield erected by Sirius, Yamato looked around curiously, but could see nothing but endless yellow sand and the lifeless earth below.

The Sirius floated in mid-air and continued to move forward.

However, the view is the same no matter which direction you move in.

Dead silence, desolate, utterly empty.

Sirius accelerated, and in no time at all, it had already circled the planet completely.

However, we still didn't see any other particularly special scenery.

"Is there nothing here?" Hiyori sighed. "What a lonely place."

Since its birth, it has always been in a state of deathly silence; what a loneliness that must be.

"Don't you think it's beautiful too?" Sirius said with a smile.

A desolate, majestic beauty devoid of any trace of civilization.

This planet has looked exactly the same since its birth, unchanged for billions of years. Seeing it now is like seeing it billions of years ago—isn't that a breathtaking and wondrous feeling?

"No one is needed to witness it; its mere existence here is enough."

That's already amazing.

"Seeing this suddenly moved me deeply," Luo said abruptly.

"Moved? Why?" Yamato asked curiously.

"Because even in this vast cosmos, the number of planets capable of supporting life is extremely limited."

Luo laughed and said, "Just like this planet, it has been completely silent for billions of years."

"But our planet gave birth to us, allowing us to see this beautiful world, this vast starry sky."

"Isn't this enough to move us? Because we've come into this world."

Sirius couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Why has everyone become so philosophical after arriving on another planet?

After wandering around the planet for a while, Sirius said, "There's nothing worth staying here. Let's get ready to leave."

This planet is indeed beautiful in its desolate atmosphere, but the swirling yellow sand makes it unsuitable for landing.

Sirius and his friends had to stay inside the ship's cabin, where the Sirius transformed into a completely enclosed structure to block out the yellow sand.

Enjoying the scenery is fine, but staying here is asking too much.

However, before the Sirius could surface, Sirius raised his head first.

"Huh? Is that so?"

His face was filled with utter astonishment, his eyebrows furrowed, as if he could hardly believe it.

"What's wrong Sirius?" Yamato asked curiously.

The surprise on Sirius's face instantly turned into a smile.

"We thought we had to turn back, but it looks like our stargazing journey can continue!"

"Hey! What's this?!"

Not yet. By the time the other kids realized what was happening, Yamato quickly noticed something was wrong. Her eyes widened in surprise, "Someone's coming!"

"Is... is anyone there?"

Jack stared in astonishment, his eyes wide.

"No way? This is an alien planet!" Maria exclaimed incredulously.

"Could it be that there are actually people living on this planet?" Page One wondered.

"No,"

Sirius looked up at the ceiling, as if he could see through it and see the things slowly descending from the sky. "They came here from outside the world, just like us!"

"Ah, this--"

Luo's expression turned somewhat strange. "Could it be that there are actually many intelligent life forms in the universe?"

Who knows?

Sirius chuckled. "We'll find out by asking them later."

The Sirius transformed again, revealing a deck.

Sirius and the others came to the deck. He raised his Haki shield to block the yellow sand, and everyone looked up at the sky.

Even Page One, Bepo, and others with relatively weak Observation Haki could sense the descending auras from the sky.

Soon, a dark figure began to emerge from the swirling yellow sand, and finally revealed itself from the sandstorm.

It was a large, pitch-black ship.

Its appearance is quite similar to the Sirius. Although it has the overall shape of a ship and a deck, it does not have a mast.

At that moment, a group of strange-looking heads were peering down from the mast on the deck.

"Finally found it, it's really fast!"

The man, completely shrouded in armor, snorted coldly.

He shouted, "Activate the energy shield!"

"Yes!"

Several spheres flew off the large ship and headed straight into the sandstorm.

"Kindness?"

Sirius raised an eyebrow slightly.

The next moment, something very interesting happened: the spheres floated in mid-air and then emitted light.

The spreading light connected the several spheres together, eventually forming a cylindrical shield that covered a large area, directly blocking the yellow sand outside, and the space immediately became quiet.

"Energy Technology!"

Black exclaimed in surprise, "It's completely different from how it's used on the Blue Sea!"

He also knows that technology, but he usually uses it to make beam cannons.

"The technology is so advanced!" Black couldn't help but exclaim.

The ship above slowly descended, reaching an altitude almost level with the Sirius.

Sirius and the others were now able to clearly see what the people on the opposite ship looked like.

"Wow! They all look so weird!"

Yamato's eyes widened.

Sirius nodded in agreement.

None of the people on the opposite ship looked like humans.

They were all strange creatures, some looked like stones, some like slugs, some flapped their wings like big birds, and some had long ears like rabbits.

Aliens, without a doubt, these are definitely aliens.

These people were all wearing all sorts of strange armor, some fully covered and some half-body, and they were all carrying all sorts of weapons, but none of them were swords or the like.

The leader was wearing a suit of armor that gleamed with a metallic sheen and looked very high-tech. He was hunched over, and his head was grotesque, like a lizard's, covered in thick scales.

As Sirius sized them up, they were also sizing Sirius up.

"A creature I've never seen before?"

The Lizard Head creature muttered to himself in surprise, then shouted, "Hey, what planet are you guys from?"

"Huh?"

Hiyori's eyes widened. "We can understand them!!"

Sirius couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth into a smile.

Wow, this is just too amazing!

Birka's language was the common language on the Blue Sea at that time, but could this language also be spoken in the starry sky?

"We are from the Blue Sea!"

Yamato, hands on his hips, shouted, "They're pirates!"

Are you pirates too?

The Lizard Head nodded, a smile spreading across its ferocious face. "That makes things much easier!"
