Chapter 740: Magnetic Island: Kuina's Predicament
Having identified the source of the problem, Lin Mo released his Observation Haki and soon noticed something very strange.
A great many rusted weapons lay piled beneath this calm little lake.
Among those weapons were even some corpses that had long since become skeletons...
Apart from the rusted weapons and bones, there was no sign of life in the lake, not even a single fish.
