Join the red-haired pirates at the beginning! Lord Wuhan!

The sun was setting, and the entire sea illuminated by the sun was sparkling. The breeze was undulating, and small wind waves were impacting the Red Foss's hull. This tiny, not worth mentioning impact is more like a gentle caress to the pirate ship. It cannot stop the Red Foss from riding the wind and waves. Even the huge waves and strong winds cannot stop the red-haired pirates. At this moment It also moved forward at full speed with full left rudder.

If we go at this speed, I'm afraid it won't take long to reach Hanging Mountain.

There are two ways to go to the Grand Route. The first is to pass through the Hanging Mountain. The airflow through the huge and towering mountains is impacted on the "Paradise" route. There are seven routes in total, and each one is for the pirates who enter the Hanging Mountain. It's all random.

The second is to cross the Evernight Island of Aeneais Judiciary and pass through the Aikou under the entire island.

In the cabin, Shanks, Wuhan, and Ben Bellman were talking around a map of the Red Earth Continent. Shanks stood aside smoking a cigarette, indifferent. He would only watch from the side and would never participate in such laborious matters as route planning. Usually I would ask him for instructions directly after planning the route. No matter what kind of route it was, he would say: "Since you have decided, I, the wise Red-haired Shanks, will not refuse, because I am the one who You have the same choice!"

Often at this time a drop of cold sweat would slip from my forehead.

"Obviously you didn't even look at the map! Are you really not ashamed to say such shameless words?"

The only thing they have to choose now is the route from the East China Sea to Xuanxuan Mountain. It is impossible for the red-haired pirates to go from Judiciary Island to Xuanxuan Mountain. It is an unfeasible road.

There are three routes for sailing from the East China Sea. One is from the Lópida Islands to the Yaling Strait and then to the Black City. This route is very dangerous. The Lópida Islands are surrounded by warm ocean currents all year round, and the waters there are warm. , the climate remains unchanged all year round, and there are many microorganisms and jumping shrimps and flying fish living there. It is like a buffet table for Neptune creatures with huge appetites.

Therefore, Lópida Island is also called the Neptune Island. There are a lot of Neptune-like creatures there that defy common sense, and they are much more powerful than ordinary Neptune-like creatures.

The Dialing Strait is not that vicious, but not much different. Instead, it is a criminal who escaped from the World Government's Impel City—Yanbonini, a Devil Fruit user who formed his own pirate group here, which is full of people. He is a very vicious person who, as a pirate group, never sails. He hides in the straits at the mouth of the East China Sea and robs passing ships.

The terrain of the strait is complex, with tall peaks on both sides, and the outlet has been illegally built by Yanbonini with a dam. If you want to cross there, you will inevitably have to fight a fierce battle.

There is nothing to say about the evil city-state. There are countless merchants gathered in the Maritime Trade City. The island is extremely small but extremely prosperous. Almost everything you want to buy can be bought in the evil city-state, whether it is a thousand-year dragon bone or a witch's potion, and even artillery weapons unique to the World Government are everywhere.

Ben Bellman didn't want to pass this route, not because he was afraid, but because it would waste too much of their time.

"So, I think we should choose another route. It is not only safe and efficient, but more importantly, this route is protected by the "Tefute Kingdom" managed by the world government, and there are very few pirates."

Wuhan looked at the map. The two red lines were the routes that had been marked. The straight route was what he said was a safer route.

"Then, what is this island?" Wuhan said, pointing to a super mini island not far from the East China Sea.

"Oh, this is Tutu Island. As the name suggests, there are only a group of indigenous people living there, two small tribes. There are more wild creatures on the island than the indigenous people."

"No matter what, the path to the Tefente Kingdom is more realistic." Wu Mei agreed with Ben's idea.

The Grand Route is their goal. When sailing out of such a small section as the East China Sea, it is best not to cause unnecessary complications.

"Then are we going to follow the second route now?" What's strange is that Ben didn't ask Shanks for his opinion first, but instead asked for Wuhan's opinion.

Thinking about it, as the second strongest person on the ship, Wu Mei's right to speak has become more and more important these days.

No, it's more than that.

There is a more important reason.

That is, although the red-haired pirates are ridiculously strong, the combined brain capacity of all members is at a low level... All this is due to the leadership of Shanks. It can be said that if Ben hadn't worried about this and that like an old lady, the pirate group would have died at sea long ago...

Ben was very pleased that Wu Mei's intelligence level was at least normal, so the two of them would be more confident in doing anything if they discussed it together.

He looked at Shanks next to him.

Shanks noticed his gaze, opened his mouth wide and showed his white teeth, and gave him a look of wisdom (dementia).

"..."

"Just follow your plan, Ben. We won't stop at the small island in the middle. We will sail all the way to the Tefente Kingdom, where we will supply supplies, and then head all the way to the Hanging Mountain. This route is the most appropriate."

"Ok!"

Ben put away the map and was very happy. It was so comfortable to be able to sail on the sea and communicate with people of normal intelligence.

Shanks tugged on his sleeve.

"What's the matter, Captain?"

"No, nothing."

Ben was a little surprised when he saw Shanks put his hand on his cheek with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Really? Is it really true? The captain was also thinking about the sailing route, and even tugged on my sleeve and gave me a positive opinion! How wonderful!"

Ben shed tears of emotion.

Shanks stood up and walked out of the cabin.

Ben looked at him excitedly from behind, "The captain is really becoming more and more mature and can start to think about problems!"

It wasn't until five minutes later that an angry roar came from the cabin, "Shanks! Why did you put the boogers you pulled out on my clothes!"

······

"It's such a beautiful weather. Why don't we hang fish for a while?"

Shanks was leisurely and contented on the deck. He said to Lucky and Doctor Wuhan.

"Of course, boss, I think we can have a competition to see who can catch more fish."

"A competition? Haha, it seems that I have never lost a competition with you."

"Oh? Even as a captain, it's too arrogant to say this, isn't it? Hmph."

As soon as the word "match" appeared, the man's strange desire to win immediately surged. Lucky and Shanks looked at each other, and there was a strong smell of gunpowder immediately.

Lucky and Shanks took out the fishing rod from their crotch and looked dumbfounded.

"By the way, this thing can be hidden in the crotch? Wouldn't it make you panic if you poke it?"

On second thought, yes, a man can even hide a gun in his crotch, so what else can't he hide?

Shanks puts on the bait and throws out the fishing line! Throw it into the sea, relax the coil, and drag the float, all in one movement!

Not to be outdone, Lucky also followed suit.

Not long after, there was a "wow" and a beautiful blue swordfish was dragged directly to the deck by Shanks.

"It seems your speed needs to be improved, Lucky."

Shanks raised his eyebrows provocatively, his face full of triumph.

"Humph!"

"Wow" came out again!

A turtle as big as a disk was thrown directly onto the deck.

"Haha, sometimes speed doesn't mean everything, quality is more important. Captain, second men will be discriminated against."

"What did you say?"

"Second man! Captain!"

The two of them were face to face, eyes to eyes, grinning, tit for tat.

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

"Wow hoo hoo!"

A sound means that a fish has landed. Wuhan is watching from the side. Surprisingly, Lachi is not only superior in quality, but also faster and faster. In this competition, the fishing speed is as fast as More than twice that of Shanks.

"Why is this happening? What method did you use? How did you catch so fast?"

Shanks' eyes bulged and he asked unwillingly.

"Hahahahaha! You're curious. As the greatest chef on the sea, of course I have researched on fishing bait. The bait I just used is: Secret Technique·Fish Love·Fragrant Bait! Hahahaha"

"You are obviously cheating! You have the ability to use the same bait as me!"

"Cheating? Na na na~ Captain, it's wrong to slander others wantonly. You clearly didn't specify what bait to use."

Lucky raised his eyebrows, raised his butt proudly, and let out a somewhat arrogant laugh.

"Damn it, it's bait, right? Then I can only use my special move!"

Seeing that he was about to lose, Shanks couldn't help but become anxious.

"Time"!

He reached into his crotch, took out a colorful pair of pants, picked up the fishhook, and hung his pants on it.

"Damn it! Is this the trick?" Lucky shed a drop of cold sweat.

"That's right, this is the trick. The fish in the ocean's favorite bait is something full of fishy smell. When they smell the fishy smell, they will travel thousands of miles to come. And these pants of mine haven't been washed for three months, so it's OK It’s said to be extremely fishy! This is my special trick!”

"Pfft!" Wuhan's eyes bulged as he was drinking.

"What the hell is this damn thing!!"

"Well done, boss!"

"Captain is awesome!"

The onlookers began to applaud Shanks' unexpected move!

The pants were floating on the sea, and everyone was staring closely at the pants, even Lucky. Surprisingly, with a "stuck" sound, his pants were pulled vertically into the sea, and the fishing line was suddenly tightened! Shanks instantly felt a huge pull on his hand!

"Did you take the bait so soon?"

With hot eyes, he tightened the fishing rod and used all his strength to tug the fishing line crazily. But even with Shanks' strength, he couldn't drag the fish directly to the shore immediately.

This shows how huge the prey is!

"Come on, boss! Come on, boss!"

There were cheers from the ship.

"Okay! You're still very stubborn. Look, I'll pull you up right away. You like big fish eating your pants!"

Under the setting sun, the sound of water suddenly started to sound, and the light shone brightly. Everyone looked at the caught things in disbelief. Due to the effect of the sunlight, they could not see clearly at the first time.

Shanks laughed excitedly and dragged the big fish to the deck, so that everyone could see it clearly.

"This, this, this! What is this! This is a mermaid!!!"

Lucky's eyes were filled with tears as he looked at the fair-skinned woman on the deck who only wore two shells and spoke harsh words.

He actually caught a mermaid with his pants!

Does this work too? ?
