Chapter 386 Honest Man
Jerry was initially against Deuce and his companions returning and bringing Ace back with them.
The reason is that although this action has been discussed by everyone, he knows that the temptation of the great secret treasure makes the situation unpredictable.
The image of their Heizi has long been deeply imprinted in the minds of those who are interested, and their identity can be recognized from a distance with just one glance.
Although everyone knows that the Kuroko Pirates are powerful, there are still many people willing to take risks for the legendary treasure.
Especially when they knew clearly that Jerry and Cavendish were on the island, and only the relatively weaker people like Deuce were left on the Blackie, they became even more eager to make a move.
So when the Heizi appeared on the horizon, the people in the outer sea area surrounding the checkpoint where Jerry had set up the checkpoint suddenly became excited.
Many ships rushed to attack the Sunflower, attempting to capture Deuce and others in exchange for the coveted Permanent Pointer.
However, they underestimated the strength of the Kuroko Pirates members.
The hard work of Deus and others in training along the way has not been in vain, their strength has been steadily increasing. Even though their growth rates are different, they are no longer incompetent.
What's more, there was Ace on the Kuroko who was ready to fight.
With Ace's fire and Brook's ice paving the way, and the support of others, and with the threat of Deuce suddenly transforming into a dragon, the Blackie rushed to Treasure Island in the midst of the siege with great momentum.
When Ace and others appeared and caused chaos, there was also fierce artillery fire on the other side of the island. It was the NEO Navy that opened fire as soon as they arrived.
Although they did not have many ships, with Garp and Zephyr in charge, the situation became increasingly chaotic.
By the time Jerry launched a long-range attack, the Sunshine had already approached the vortex area outside the island.
"Wow, isn't this the Fire Fist Ace who has been so powerful recently!" After the two sides greeted each other, Jerry exclaimed with an exaggerated expression.
Ace grinned, "I've heard of you too. You're the Jerry who's stuck in the rat hole and can't get out!"
The two chatted for a while and then turned the topic back to the current situation.
Jerry drove the Blackie to the base camp where they had lived for more than ten days on the coast in the center of the island. He smiled and said, "Actually, you really don't have to come back. Wait until I finish processing..."
At this point, Jerry slapped his head and shook his head: "Forget it, we are already here, why are we still talking about that."
He changed the subject, clenched his fist and raised it to the sky, shouting excitedly: "Next, let's sweep across the world together and go straight to the Raftelu fishing ground!"
After he finished speaking, Jerry didn't hear the cheers he had imagined, but only received speechless looks from everyone.
Deuce asked directly, "Are you sure there is a fishing spot there?"
This seemed to open up everyone's conversation, and they all started talking about irrelevant things.
"There should be lots of carrots and delicious snacks there, right?"
"Gallot, if you ask me, there should be a lot of treasures, antiques and the like there."
"Yohoho, I think..."
Just as everyone was immersed in the long-lost gossip and boasting, Cavendish's standing up was like a signal, causing Deuce and others to quickly restrain their expressions.
"Is someone coming again?" Skarr guessed.
Cavendish nodded with a hint of excitement, and while waving to Kodaz, he replied, "Well, I'll go over and take care of it first."
Looking at his impatient figure flying out, Jerry shrugged, indicating that he was used to it.
Realizing that he had something important to do, Deuce took out a pen and paper and said thoughtfully, "How about we divide the work..."
Next, everyone had a quick discussion and then went their separate ways.
At the same time, inside the Marine Headquarters, Sengoku, whose hair was gradually turning gray, slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He gently moved the document in his hand and placed it on top of the pile of documents on the table. He picked up the Den Den Mushi and said in a deep voice, "Prepare to close the net."
On a naval ship thousands of miles away, a general officer responded respectfully and then hurried away to convey the order as quickly as possible.
The next morning, there was smoke and flames outside Zhenbao Island.
There are not only conflicts between pirates, but also battles between the NEO Navy, the Kingdom Army and other forces and pirates.
Hundreds of thousands of people gathered here, and in the vast sea surrounding the island, countless ships were either forming teams or acting alone, and although the fighting continued, it did not completely engulf all participants.
In this chaos, there are many calm and aloof pirates who are preparing to launch a new round of attacks as always, regardless of whether it is morning or midnight.
After so many days of attacks, even those reckless people without any strategy clearly understood how dangerous the people on the island were. Those who dared to rush forward would most likely never return. This cruel reality undoubtedly poured cold water on their fanatical hearts.
However, there are always people in the world who are unwilling to be ordinary. They firmly believe that they are the miracle that can change their destiny and dream of becoming the final force that overwhelms everything.
As time goes by, many forces have begun to formulate a joint plan, intending to first work together to capture the island, and then compete for the legendary permanent pointer with their own strength.
However, just as this undercurrent was surging, a calm voice suddenly sounded.
"Ice Age!"
As the biting cold spread, the rough sea surface was instantly frozen into a thick layer of ice.
"This! Is the navy going to take action?"
"How is that possible? Aren't they afraid of being surrounded by all of us?"
On the vast ocean that had been turned into a vast ice field, countless pirates looked at the navy that suddenly emerged from the sea fog and slowly advanced from afar, and exclaimed in surprise.
"Aha, it seems they don't want to wait any longer." Jerry turned his head and scanned the level he created. The tsunami that was surging high in the original place was frozen into an iceberg surrounding the island, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Then, he frowned and looked down at the fishing line and hook frozen in the ice, stretched out his left hand and snapped his fingers.
"I can't let you freeze all my fish to death."
As the sound of the fingers snapped, the ice under the inland sea and three outflowing rivers within the island seemed to be shaken by an invisible force, like thousands of horses galloping, with continuous noises.
The next second, the crackling sounds intertwined into a melody, and countless ice cubes shattered and floated on the water. The inland seas and rivers instantly returned to their former gurgling state.
After a while, Deus and others who had dispersed and stationed on the coast early in the morning returned one after another.
"As we expected, when the pirates in the four seas and paradise are sorted out, the navy will be free to take action." After everyone gathered around, Deuce signaled Kodaz to keep an eye on the situation overseas from a distance, and then spoke.
Scar nodded: "Of course, the navy will also take advantage of the situation and use the incident we created to launch a major attack on the pirates."
"Besides, this is related to Raftel's Permanent Pointer after all. The World Government and the Navy will definitely not let anyone hold it and do nothing."
"It's a pity that we rushed to make these fakes..." Kalina casually took out a number of permanent pointers pointing in different directions, all of which were engraved with the word Raftel.
These counterfeits were originally prepared by Jerry in order to confuse the outside pirates at the last minute and implement his plan of fishing in troubled waters, but now the plan has changed, and the final fate of these pointers remains to be discussed.
Jerry does not act like Mingge. He adheres to the principle of "honesty and duty" both internally and externally.
You know, in the arena competition held by Mingo in the original track, he actually gave away the real Flame-Flame Fruit as prizes, but did not choose to pass off fake ones as real ones or hide any tricks.
"How about throwing it into the river and letting those people fish it out?"
Everyone blinked when they heard Jerry's suggestion. Kalina raised her hand and praised him, saying, "You are really thrifty and don't want to waste anything."
