Kazu used his spatial powers to envelop the Polar Tang and placed it directly on the deck of the Divine Dragon.
"Let's go, let's send your companions back to North Blue first, so you won't worry."
"Yes, thank you for your help, Captain Kazu."
Luo didn't expect Kazu to be so concerned; his first priority was to resolve Kaz's worries.
"Haha, another newcomer. I wonder if this kid likes the traditions of our Blond Hair Pirates."
" Carlmand, he's still a child."
"What's there to be afraid of? I think he has great potential and should be nurtured from a young age."
On the other side, after the Heart Pirates boarded the Divine Dragon, they discovered that it was completely different from the pirate ship they had imagined; it was more like a floating entertainment city.
The luxurious decor and numerous entertainment facilities made them feel that drifting on the sea was a rather happy thing.
"Alright, destination: North Blue, let's go."
The Divine Dragon set sail towards the Calm Belt, unlike the Heart Pirates who cautiously avoided powerful opponents, because the Blond Hair Pirates themselves were the overlords of the seas.
Over the past two days, Law sought out Oulait to learn some swordsmanship, and also consulted with Kazu about developing his Devil Fruit abilities. He spent the rest of his time with his companions.
"We've arrived; the Calm Belt is just ahead."
" Kazu, how do you plan to send them over?"
Carlmand gazed at the calm sea ahead. Kazu had no Space Mark in the North Blue, so even someone as powerful as him couldn't simply Space Swap the entire ship there.
This is nothing like having Space Mark; I don't know how many times I'll have to change locations to reach the North Blue Sea.
"You all wait for me here. I'll take the Polar Tang with them to the North Blue, and then I'll bring Luo back."
Kazu grabbed the Polar Tang and launched it back into the sea.
Kazu, Luo, Penguin, Shachi, and Bepo jumped onto the deck of the Polar Tang and waved to Makino and the others.
"You stay here for a while, I'll be back in about two days at most."
Everyone else was fine, but Hancock felt so heartbroken that she could hardly breathe because she had to be separated from Kazu for two days.
Have a safe trip, darling!
Kazu waved to Hancock, then entered the interior of the Polar Tang. Penguin and Shachi piloted the submarine into the deep sea, rapidly heading towards the North Blue.
"Captain Kazu, I didn't have time to remind you earlier, we might not be able to reach the North Blue in two or three days."
Luo sat on a chair to the side, talking face to face with Kazu.
"Can't get there?"
"Your Polar Tang is fast enough, and the Calm Belt aren't very wide. Two days should be enough, maybe even less."
Kazu calculated in his mind that if he walked straight there, he should have enough time. Could he have miscalculated?
"Captain Kazu, you're right, but we'll encounter many Sea Kings along the way."
"In this Calm Belt deep sea, they are the absolute rulers; it will take a considerable amount of time to avoid them."
Kazu chuckled after hearing Luo's concern and said, "Haha, I thought it was because my math was bad."
"So you included the time you spent avoiding the Sea Kings in your calculations. Sorry, sorry, it might be my personal issue; I just don't usually take the Sea Kings seriously."
Luo blinked, then felt his eyelid twitch violently.
He didn't know whether to say Captain Kazu was powerful or that his showing off skills were unparalleled.
I had a constant urge to stand up and slap him, but reason told me that not only would I not hit Kazu, but he would also beat me up badly.
"Captain Luo, Captain Kazu, you two stop chatting and look at what's in front of you!!"
Penguin shouted at the two people who were still chatting, his voice filled with fear and panic.
"This is..."
Luo turned around and saw a giant eyeball staring at them.
The eye alone is probably hundreds of meters long, larger than their Polar Tang, and the entire body must be at least thousands of meters long.
"Damn it, we've encountered Sea Kings! We didn't even realize it until we were this close."
Luo was clearly getting anxious. Previously, he would quickly turn off the searchlights and disguise himself as a useless lump of scrap metal as soon as he spotted traces of Sea Kings in the distance.
"There's nothing we can do, Captain. This Sea Kings had its eyes closed the whole time, and it was pitch black around us. It had no idea there was a Sea Kings here. By the time we got close, it was too late."
"Damn it, are we all going to end up as fish food?"
"Aaaaaah, Captain!!"
Penguin and Shachi felt that they were in deep trouble. Bepo was so scared that tears came out, and she ran straight into Luo's arms without daring to look up.
The Sea Kings in the ocean had never seen this iron lump before. It looked at it with some confusion, but found nothing particularly special about it.
Forget it, let's eat first and then talk about it.
The Sea Kings slowly opened its massive, abyssal maw, intending to swallow the Polar Tang whole.
Kazu, who was still sitting, calmly lit a cigarette, exhaled a thin cloud of smoke, stood up, and took two steps forward.
"I've said it before, I've never considered Sea Kings threat."
"Fine, then let me show you something."
