Pirates: I become stronger by checking in on the plot island

Xia Chen didn't expect that Bellamy would help them.

However, Xia Chen only thought about this matter briefly and didn't care about it. What he wanted to know more now was what happened during the time from when he fell down to when Luffy and others arrived.

Why did the body of the Golden Lion disappear out of thin air? Could it be that he was not dead?

No, not possible!

This idea only appeared in Xia Chen's mind for a moment before he rejected it. He was sure that the Golden Lion was already exhausted.

So now we are back to the beginning, what exactly happened during that time?

Xia Chen suddenly felt that things seemed to be getting interesting and couldn't help but chuckle.

"interesting!"

It’s best not to let him know who took the golden lion away. Anyone who dares to covet his spoils will be doomed to death!

Just as Xia Chen's thoughts were surging, Luffy suddenly shouted:

"Then Xia Chen, it was you who defeated the Golden Lion?"

"No!" Xia Chen shook his head and continued, "I can be considered the person who directly caused the death of Golden Lion, but I did not defeat him!"

???

Everyone was stunned when they heard Xia Chen's words.

If you kill someone, does that not count as defeating him?

Looking at their eyes, Xia Chen knew what they were thinking, and reluctantly told them what happened.

-

"So, after he pulls out the rudder on his head, he will die even if you don't fight him?"

"Yes! That's right! It's just that the battle with me accelerated the process!" Xia Chen nodded and replied.

"But to be honest, the Golden Lion is too powerful after being released. At this stage, I am no match for him at all!"

"You are already very strong to be able to fight with a strong man of this level for ten minutes!" Robin retorted.

Compared to Luffy and the others, Robin has broader knowledge and naturally knows how vast the world is.

Based on the strength Xia Chen has shown now, according to her estimation, there are not many people who can defeat him.

Thinking of this, Robin couldn't help but look at Xia Chen.

"This young brother is very strong~"

……

"Hey, uncle, you've been here for so long, have you never thought about going up to the sky to take a look?" Xia Chen said to Kulikai.

After Xia Chen and his friends said they wanted to go to the Sky Island, Kulikai thought about it and decided to help them by modifying their ship, the Merry, so that it could fly into space.

"Idiot! What nonsense are you talking about? If you're not careful at such a high place, you could get killed!"

Kulikai said as he helped reinforce the Merry.

Since Xia Chen did not let the Merry suffer any damage along the way, the Merry is now much better than it was in the original book.

No repairs are needed, just simple reinforcement will be enough.

Xia Chen was lying here watching them work, while Luffy and the others went to look for Nan Nan Jiandiao.

Although he has nothing to worry about now, he is still mentally exhausted! He needs to take a rest!

After a while, it seemed that Kulikai and the others were almost done.

Xia Chen shouted directly at them: "Hey, uncle, ape, gorilla! Bring your brothers over here, I will treat you to dinosaur meat!"

"Oh!"

After some time~

Xia Chen had just finished grilling the dinosaur meat when Luffy and the others came back.

"Hey, Xia Chen, you are so mean. We worked so hard to catch birds, and you are secretly eating dinosaur meat here?"

"Huh?" Xia Chen looked at him puzzledly, then looked at Kulikai and others.

"Did we eat it secretly? Isn't this eating openly?"

"Oh, that's right!" Luffy, the brainless guy, immediately agreed after hearing what Xia Chen said, then ran over happily, picked up the meat and put it in his mouth.

After taking a bite of meat, Kulikai reminded, "It's already one in the morning. If you want to sleep, go ahead. I estimate that the Ascension Current will appear around noon tomorrow, but the exact time is unclear! So we have to set off early tomorrow morning!"

"Hahaha... I'm so excited that I can't sleep when I think about going to Sky Island tomorrow!" Luffy said happily.

Looking at Luffy like this, Chopper and Usopp only wanted to say one thing.

They couldn't sleep either, but they were too scared to sleep!

In the end, everyone decided to take a nap. No one knew what would happen tomorrow, and maintaining a good sleep was the most important thing!

But Xia Chen did not go. He still lay outside looking at the stars, his thoughts drifting to the sky.

"Sky Island? I'm looking forward to it..."

……

Dawn breaks and the sun rises!

At 6 o'clock in the morning, the sun had already shone on Gaya Island.

"Hey! Everyone, let's go!"

Luffy said to everyone while standing on the newly built chicken head of the Merry.

"Can this really fly?" Nami asked doubtfully as she looked at the new Merry.

"Indeed! Why a chicken head instead of a pigeon head? After all, a pigeon can fly better than a chicken, right?" Zoro walked over and nodded.

“Is that the question?!”

Nami is so impressed. What kind of thinking are these people having?

After packing up, everyone got on the boat one by one. At the same time, two boats appeared beside Mary.

Kulikai shouted to the apes, "Listen, people of the Ape Mountain Alliance, we must send them to the sky, do you understand?"

"Oh!"

The people on both the ape and gorilla boats responded at the same time.

"Uncle, goodbye! I will definitely prove to you the existence of the Golden City!" Luffy waved goodbye to Kulikai.

"Tsk, brat, don't brag so quickly!"

"Hee hee hee……"

As Kulikai watched, the three ships slowly sailed away.

"Make sure you get there safely, you little brats!"

-

"Oh~ This bird is so interesting, it really is pointing to the bow all the time!" Luffy's trio and Xia Chen, a total of four people, all surrounded Nan Nan Jianbird and pointed at it.

"You know what, it's really interesting!" Xia Chen also looked at the bird with interest, then went over and used his hands to bend its head to the side, but it quickly bounced back by itself.

"Hey hey hey!"

Then several people went over and twisted its head, and then they all laughed.

At this time, Nan Nan Jianniao was very unhappy looking at the people in front of him.

You're abusing animals, right? Be careful or I'll sue you at the Animal Protection Association!

A few hours later~

A huge, thick black cloud appeared before everyone's eyes. The ape looked at the cloud and said to them, "Look, that's the Jidi Cloud. Its appearance means that the location of the ocean current explosion is not far from us!"

At this time, the gorilla also said to his men: "The sea exploration subs will be dispatched, go into the sea immediately to explore the location of the ocean current!"

Then he started to show off his unique skills, took out a microphone and started howling.

Ten seconds later, a person showed up first.

"Report, a large current appears at twelve o'clock!"

"A large marine creature was detected at the nine o'clock position. It might be a sea king!"

"There's something going in the opposite direction to the ocean current at ten o'clock. It could be a whirlpool!"

"That's it, head for ten o'clock!" the ape shouted, and then the three boats turned around at the same time.

Not long after, a huge whirlpool appeared in front of them...
