Chapter 627 Clockwork Island: Diamond Clock is targeted
East Blue.
Compared with other sea areas, East Blue is quite calm.
After leaving Foosha Village, because he lost the game, Enel had no choice but to keep his mouth shut in order not to be kicked off the ship.
For a while, Flying Ship became quite quiet.
There is also a bet that Luffy did not admit defeat.
In the next three days, Kaku was not polite and enjoyed themselves comfortably for three days. Enel and Perona were asked to do anything.
Perona is slightly better.
Enel is so angry.
But he couldn't speak, so in order to prevent himself from swearing, he even wore a mask.
Perona and Kaku would tease him from time to time, just to force him to talk.
However, someone who is usually the most likely to jump around actually endured it...
All in all, except for one person, everyone had a particularly happy time during these three days.
Until the afternoon of the fourth day after leaving Foosha Village.
Enel is on the lookout on Lookout as usual.
Suddenly discovering something, he threw Lightning Strike towards Kaku who was teaching Perona some simple Hand-to-Hand Combat on Deck.
Fortunately, Kaku reacted quickly and jumped away immediately before being hit.
"Hey, what did you find again?" Kaku looked at Enel on Lookout angrily.
In the past few days, Enel has been reminding them of what he discovered in this way.
Then, Enel pointed to the southeast of Flying Ship.
Kaku came to the guardrail and looked in the direction Enel pointed.
Not far away, there is a stone island that seems to have little vegetation.
There is nothing strange about ordinary stone islands, but this stone island has a long spiral column rising vertically in the center.
If you look closely, it is actually the way up. At the top of the spiral, there is a semicircular piece of land, and many buildings are built on this land.
For those who don't know, when they see this island, they will wonder how there is such an island.
After Kaku took a look at it, he immediately pulled out a book he bought at Foosha Village, which was a book specifically introducing some special islands here at East Blue. After flipping through a few pages, he quickly found details about this island.
"It turns out to be Clockwork Island." Kaku looked at the introduction in the book and continued, "Hmm, the manufacturing industry on this island seems to be quite powerful, huh? This Diamond Clock seems to be pretty good."
"Diamond Clock??" Perona asked with interest, "What Diamond Clock?"
Kaku pointed to the picture of Diamond Clock printed on the book and continued, "It seems to be the more famous symbol of Clockwork Island. It is made of the best gems and the most advanced technology. It is the most expensive automatic watch in the world."
When Perona saw the picture of Diamond Clock, his eyes were shining. "Wow, it looks good. It would be great if it could be installed on our ship."
"Indeed." Kaku touched his chin and thought for a moment, then looked at Lin Mo who was reading a book by the second-floor window and shouted, "Captain, the one in front is Clockwork Island. There is a Diamond Clock on the island. Do you want to get it and install it on our boat? It will be easier for us to tell the time in the future."
Lin Mo didn't care and responded casually, "Okay."
After getting Lin Mo's permission, Kaku originally wanted Enel to go with him, but after thinking about it, he decided not to go.
As soon as his eyes turned, he turned to Little White.
Little White is usually only interested in two things, one is meat, and the other is bright and shiny gems.
This Diamond Clock looks like Little White's dish.
Therefore, it is very appropriate to let Little White go.
"Ah, I want to go too." Perona blinked and made a small suggestion, "Kaku-chan, let me go too~"
"Let's see if Little White takes you." Kaku didn't care, but from what he saw, there was a high probability that Little White wouldn't even pay attention to Perona.
"Little White, come to life." Kaku came directly to Little White and called him.
Little White turned over impatiently and did not open his eyes.
Kaku turned the page with the picture of Diamond Clock to Little White and said, "Look, you absolutely like this Diamond Clock. Captain also agrees to install this clock on our ship. You and I go to Clockwork Town and buy this clock."
When Diamond Clock was mentioned, Lin Mo agreed. Little White then opened his eyes and glanced at the picture of Diamond Clock that Kaku showed him.
After just one glance, Little White stood up, turned to look at Clockwork Island not far away, and asked expressionlessly, "Are you there?"
Kaku nodded. "Yes, it should be in Clockwork Town up the spiral staircase. We are not Pirate, so we can't rob it. This Diamond Clock should be quite expensive, let's buy it with some money."
After thinking for a while, Kaku continued, "Well, in addition to the gold, there is almost more than 70 million Beli in cash. Take all of it and buy that Diamond Clock."
"Oh." Little White has no idea about money, so when Kaku said how much it would cost, he thought Diamond Clock was worth that much.
"Then you wait a moment, I'll go get the money." As he said that, Kaku immediately ran towards the small vault inside Flying Ship.
Enel stood on Lookout and looked at the situation on Deck. He originally wanted to go together, but when he saw that Little White was going, he thought about it and decided not to go.
And Perona, on this ship, the person she fears most besides Lin Mo is Little White.
After hesitating for a moment, she plucked up the courage and came to Little White who was yawning. She blinked and asked cautiously, "Little White, can I go with you?"
Little White glanced at her expressionlessly and ignored her.
Perona was confused. "Is it the default to not speak?"
At this time, Enel on Lookout suddenly sneered.
Perona looked up at Perona and said dissatisfied, "Why are you sneering? I'm talking to Little White. What does it have to do with you? Shut up!"
Enel:"..."
Soon, Kaku ran out of Ship Cabin carrying two boxes filled with Beli.
Seeing that Perona looked a little unhappy, Kaku asked, "Little White, do you agree to let Perona go with you?"
Little White replied indifferently, "No."
Kaku asked dumbfounded, "Does that mean I won't take her with me?"
Little White nodded silently.
No matter how unhappy Perona is, Kaku has no choice but to say, "Since Little White said so, Perona, you and Enel can watch the ship here."
As he spoke, Kaku looked at Lin Mo who was reading a book on the second floor of Ship Cabin, and asked, "Captain, do you want to come with us?"
Lin Mo replied indifferently, "I won't go."
"Okay, then I and Little White will go to Clockwork Island first. We will be back within an hour." After saying this, Kaku winked at Little White.
Then, he took Little White, stepped on Geppo, and left Flying Ship.
Chapter 628 Clockwork Island: Threat?
Little White originally wanted to change to White Dragon status and fly directly to Clockwork Town to buy Diamond Clock.
After being told by Kaku that it was extravagant and wasteful and would easily scare Clockwork Town residents, he gave up the idea.
After the two arrived at Clockwork Island, they looked at the long vertical spiral staircase. Without thinking much, they walked directly up the stairs.
After just a few laps, the originally good stairs suddenly closed and turned into a downward slide.
Kaku immediately stepped on Geppo to prevent it from sliding down. But Little White directly turned his hands into dragon claws, and with a 'clang', he grabbed them and sunk them into the wall next to him.
Little White:"..."
Kaku: "..."
"That's interesting." Kaku said amusedly, "So, were we discovered and treated as intruders by Clockwork Town?"
Just as Kaku finished speaking, a burst of water suddenly came from the passage in front of him, and then a large amount of water quickly poured in from top to bottom, trying to wash Little White and Kaku down.
Kaku Fortunately, with the help of Geppo, it can keep itself above the water.
But it's not in dragon form, so Little White, which can't fly, won't work.
After a moment of silence, he released his grip on the wall. The moment he fell onto the stairs that had been turned into a slide, he directly grabbed a large hole in the stairs with his two claws. Then, all the surging water flowed down from the large hole scratched by Little White.
"Little White, grab my hand." Kaku immediately stretched out his hand to Little White.
Little White grabbed Kaku's hand unceremoniously, because it was still a dragon-clawed hand. As soon as it touched Kaku's hand, Kaku's hand was scratched open by Little White's claws, and blood immediately stained his hand red.
Kaku:"!"
Little White:"..."
Kaku dumbfounded. "Little White..."
Little White immediately returned his hand to the human form, and his voice was slightly lower. "Don't blame me..."
Kaku had no choice but to change his hand, grabbed Little White, and said helplessly, "Okay, I don't blame you. If you want to blame us, blame those who treat us as intruders."
"Yeah." Little White said expressionlessly, "I will kill them."
Kaku: "..."
"Don't be impulsive." Kaku said helplessly, "Killing people is not the best way to solve the problem."
"What should we do?"
"It's simple. I will meet the mayor of Clockwork Town later and I will go to negotiate. Just cooperate with me."
"Well, okay."
After that, Kaku took Little White and stepped on Geppo all the way up.
When they came to the top of the spiral staircase, it was completely opposite to the desolation below. It was lush and full of Green Grassland and Clockwork Town. Because they had been using Geppo for too long and brought an extra person with them, Kaku's physical strength had dropped a lot, and he was really not exhausted.
"We're finally here." Kaku said out of breath.
Little White glanced around, and was immediately attracted by the shining Diamond Clock on top of the Castle, which was on the top of a grassy slope in the distance and had many poker symbols painted on the wall.
"There." Little White pointed at Castle where Diamond Clock was, looked at Kaku, and urged, "Quickly go."
"Okay..." Kaku responded with a dry smile, and after resting for a few dozen seconds, Little White and Little White trotted directly towards Castle where Diamond Clock was.
Along the way, Kaku briefly treated the wounds on his hands while running. Since there was no bandage, he used a dozen band-aids and put them on the wounds.
On the way to Poker Castle, there is a residential area with a large group of cylindrical buildings. This is Clockwork Town.
When passing a store specializing in handicrafts, Kaku paused and paid attention.
He personally prefers this kind of small handicraft with fine workmanship.
If he could stay here longer, he would be happy to visit this kind of store for a while.
Little White saw Kaku not following him, and urged him unhappily, "Kaku, hurry up."
"Okay, here it comes." Kaku immediately looked away and quickly followed Little White.
The girls Shopkeeper and Shopkeeper in this handicraft store noticed Kaku and Enel passing by the door.
No outsiders have come to Clockwork Town for a long time. Even if outsiders come, most of them will not be able to reach Clockwork Town from the island below smoothly.
Even if a small number of people succeed in coming up, they will eventually be wiped out by the so-called Bear King that now occupies Clockwork Town and built Poker Castle.
This Bear King is actually Captain of Trump Pirates. His purpose of occupying Clockwork Island is to create a dangerous weapon to dominate the world, thus becoming Pirate King.
Therefore, from the time Bear King occupied Clockwork Island, the residents of Clockwork Island had no choice but to endure and be forced to work for Bear King in order to preserve the island they lived on.
In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the two people in the handicraft store ignored the work at hand and hurried to the door, wanting to remind Kaku and Little White.
But when they chased them to the door, Little White and Kaku had already run away.
"What should we do?" The woman with purple hair and glasses said worriedly, "If we don't stop them, they will definitely die."
"But what can we do?" The man with a mustache shook his head helplessly, "It's too late for us to chase after him. If Bear King knows about it, we will also die."
The purple-haired woman looked at the direction Little White and Kaku were running, and sighed helplessly, "I hope they can survive."
the other side.
Kaku and Little White soon arrived at the foot of the hillside where Poker Castle was.
There is no direct path up the mountain around the hillside.
Found several cables leading to Castle, Kaku took Little White directly to the nearest cable car ride, and spent 500 Beli to buy two tickets for the cable car.
