Cold!
Humid!
There is also a strange smell that cannot be described.
There is no doubt that if this ship had not used expensive special wood, it would have been completely corroded by sea water and completely rotted away.
"Interesting! Judging from the structure and degree of decay of this ship, it should have sunk a hundred years ago." Robin immediately gave his own judgment after circling twice.
As an excellent archaeologist, her knowledge reserve is undoubtedly the largest in the entire team, so she has considerable authority in this regard.
"A hundred years ago?" Dora opened his mouth in shock.
"That's right! You see, the shape of the tail of this ship is typically designed for boarding battles. Only in the era of lack of artillery a hundred years ago, would the ship be designed to be so bulky. The outdated rudder and the position of the mast all indicate that it is quite old..." Nicole Robin explained enthusiastically.
It is not difficult to tell from her shining eyes that she is particularly interested in these ancient things that carry history, and she seems to be a bit eloquent when she talks about them.
But Allen obviously didn't care much about the age of the ship. He touched his chin and interrupted, "Then do you know why it suddenly floated up from the bottom of the sea?"
"Sorry, BOSS. I'm just an archaeologist and have no experience with this kind of supernatural events. Maybe we can search the cabin to see if we can find anything unusual. It would be best if the voyage diary is not completely rotten." Robin gave a helpless suggestion.
"In that case, let's spread out and look for it on this ship."
Allen immediately obeyed and immediately gave everyone an order to look for clues.
After all, this ship is too big, and it is obviously more efficient to spread out.
Soon, everyone entered the intricate maze-like cabin and began searching room by room.
Due to being soaked in seawater for more than a hundred years, most of the perishable clothes and ordinary wooden boxes have long since disappeared. Only a few metal items and nautical charts made of waterproof paper have been completely preserved.
After about twenty minutes, a bunch of useful and useless things were piled densely on the deck.
There is no doubt that identifying these things is Robin's job, and she also enjoys it.
Just when everyone was firmly attracted by these sunken ships more than a hundred years ago, Ike suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs, "Captain! Our ship is missing!"
"What?!"
Allen turned around suddenly, and sure enough, he found that Small Wooden Boat, which was originally docked on the port side, disappeared from sight.
However, he did not appear very panicked and immediately began to sense through Life Energy.
After all, the ship has been transformed and is now a living thing.
It turned out that it was okay not to sense it. Once I sensed it, I discovered that the ship had been controlled to drive three or four kilometers away at some point. Although Nami was so anxious, there was nothing that could be done about it.
"How's it going? Have you found the lost ship?" Robin asked nervously.
There is no way not to be nervous!
You must know that there are currently five people in total. Except for the swordsman Dora, the others are all Ability User from Devil Fruit.
Once the broken ship under their feet begins to sink, the landlubbers will immediately face disaster.
Of course, Miss Archaeologist didn't know that her captain was not Devil Fruit's Ability User at all, and he hadn't even eaten any Devil Fruit yet.
"Yeah! Our ship is being controlled and heading straight to the port side at 30 degrees." Allen gave the answer straightforwardly.
"In other words, someone stole our ship? Where is Nami? Is she okay?" A sharp cold light flashed in Dora's eyes.
"Don't worry, Nami is fine. He's just a little overwhelmed by the sudden situation. Let's see who is behind it."
Saying that, Allen injected Life Energy into the broken ship at his feet.
In the blink of an eye, those wooden boards that were about to rot completely began to take on new life, and even countless vines grew in some places, forming a net on the mast that could catch the wind.
"This... is this?!!!"
Portcas D·Ace was so stunned by the scene in front of him that he didn't even notice that the cowboy hat fell off his head.
"Creating life is also part of alchemy. Come on, let's follow."
Allen smiled meaningfully, and then used this ability derived from Wood Release to drive the giant ship that sank a hundred years ago to follow closely.
He did not rush to catch up, but maintained the current distance, neither being left further nor too close.
The two ships sailed one after another in a fog for two hours, and the one in front finally began to slow down.
Looking at the dilapidated ships around him, which had either completely sunk to the bottom of the sea, or were floating empty on the sea, Nami felt chilled all over, and chills were rising from the bottom of his heart.
This place reminded her of the ship graveyard in the scary stories Bellemere told her when she was a child.
"Woooooooooo..."
"Captain Allen, Sister Dora, where are you? Come and save me quickly!"
Faced with tremendous pressure and fear, this money-obsessed girl with short orange hair finally couldn't help but shed tears of regret.
If she was asked to choose again, she would never choose to stay on the ship, but would follow everyone.
Just as Nami was lying on the guardrail crying, an island suddenly appeared not far ahead.
Although it wasn't very big, it made her overjoyed.
Because through Telescope, she saw that there were obviously many houses and other buildings on the island.
Since there are buildings, it means there must be people living there.
But when the girl focused all her attention on the island in the distance, she didn't even notice that the surrounding air seemed to be producing some kind of strange fluctuations.
About two or three seconds later, a man with a lion-like jaw and nose appeared out of thin air, grinning with a twisted and sickly smile, and even stretched out his tongue to lick his lips.
This guy is none other than Moonlight·Moria's subordinate, the transparent Devil Fruit ability——Absalom.
He was the one controlling the ship just now.
The most important thing is that this guy is a typical perverted porn maniac, and the purpose of stealing the ship is also very simple, that is, to capture Nami, the most ideal bride in his mind.
But what Absalom doesn't know is that in order to satisfy his desires, he has attracted such terrible enemies to Moonlight·Moria and the entire Thriller Bark Pirates.
If he hadn't led the way, Allen would have had a lot of trouble finding this place.
When Nami and this perverted nymphomaniac landed on the island, the giant ship that had been regenerated a hundred years ago finally slowly appeared.
Staring at the ghostly island in the distance, Allen suddenly showed undisguised joy. "Awesome! This is really effortless. Next, let's make a big fuss together..."
