The members of the Blond Hair Pirates were very excited. Ever since they learned about the Pure Gold, they couldn't wait to find the lanternfish.
Kazu remembered that Luffy didn't use Gear Fourth when he fought that treasure hunter, and the Gild Tesoro's men also appeared there, which should be the area before Dressrosa.
They decided to skip landing on any of the islands along the way, and on the unanimous advice of the crew, finding the lanternfish became the Blond Hair Pirates ' top priority.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Kazu's daily routine consisted of using his Space Perception to find fish. Along the way, he encountered some ignorant pirate crews, but Kazu didn't even need to say a word; Carlmand and the others would take them all.
They had only one request: Kazu focused all his energy on detection and found that wretched fish as soon as possible.
This morning, as Kazu was sensing the sea area as usual, suddenly, a blinding light appeared in the deep sea.
It was completely invisible from the surface of the sea, but Kazu's senses probed directly to the seabed, and since his target was something that glowed, the light was particularly conspicuous.
"It seems we've found the fish."
Kazu was also somewhat excited; how many people could resist the temptation of immortality?
"Nani nani!!"
Carlmand and the others rushed over, their excitement evident on their faces, and they all leaned over the deck railing to look out into the sea.
"Watch me."
Space Swap!
Kazu directly swapped the glowing Sea Kings from the deep sea to the sky.
A red lanternfish, over a thousand meters long, stared blankly at its surroundings with its mouth agape.
Lanternfish: Where the hell did this come from? Is this still the deep sea?
Before the lanternfish could even react in mid-air, Kazu pulled out Muramasa and Space Slash a Conqueror's Coating Slash!
Pfft~
A Flying Slash swept across, and a perfectly shaped fish head said goodbye to its plump body.
Blood sprayed into the air, as if it were raining blood. Kazu quickly used his spatial power to envelop the Divine Dragon, preventing a single drop of blood from falling onto the ship.
Space Slash!
With another slash, the lanternfish was Kazu, a wound over a thousand meters long was cut open, and the food and stomach acid inside leaked out along with the blood.
Soon, an island fell out of the fish's belly. Although it wasn't very large, it was still quite a sight.
It's hard to imagine that this is what's inside the stomach of some creature. This fish really isn't picky about food; it puts everything in its mouth.
"Let's go find a quieter place."
Kazu used his spatial powers to envelop the island and the Divine Dragon, teleporting them directly to their first island in the New World — Mukelong.
This is where Kazu left Space Mark; it's the closest place to Kazu and his group, and the most energy-efficient spot.
There were some villages and many open spaces around Mukelong, so Kazu placed Alchemi in one of the open spaces.
The Divine Dragon docked directly at the shore, and Kazu and the others disembarked, eager to find the Pure Gold.
The father and daughter on the island also immediately realized something was wrong; this didn't seem to be inside the fish's belly anymore.
Kazu didn't bother with them; living in this peaceful little town was a kind of happiness, I suppose.
Both father and daughter possess Pure Gold; they have plenty of time, and they'll inevitably meet again on this island.
Let them resolve their conflict themselves; Kazu doesn't have the time to deal with it.
"Let's go find Pure Gold."
The Blond Hair Pirates arrived in front of Alchemi. Kazu, following his memories from his past life, went to find the research lab where the Pure Gold was hidden. He remembered that it was located at the deepest part of an abandoned pit.
After walking all the way to the deepest part, Kazu and his companions finally found an entrance.
"This is..."
There was a note with special writing at the entrance, Robin took two steps forward to examine it carefully.
"Those who trespass upon this place in search of glittering gold will pay with their lives."
My name is Myskina Acier.
Kazu knew that this was where Pure Gold was hidden, and that Myskina Acier was the scientist who invented Pure Gold.
"Let's go in, this must be the right place."
Kazu used his spatial powers to envelop everyone's bodies. There would be some boring traps along the way, such as arrow traps.
What would be fatal to an ordinary person is no different from child's play for a powerful individual like him.
As expected, along their journey, at least several hundred arrows shot from all directions, striking the Space Barrier with a thud before falling to the ground.
"There's even a mechanism involved. It seems the creator of this Pure Gold doesn't want others to get their hands on Pure Gold so easily."
"Haha, but it doesn't affect us at all."
"That's right, that's right, Pure Gold, here we come!!"
