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

One day later~

In the sea near Fishman Island, two figures appeared.

One of the figures was a young and handsome man, and the other was a tall mermaid, they were Xia Chen and Neptune!

Neptune turned around and looked at Xia Chen and said, "Master Xia Chen, this is the place I told you about!"

Xia Chen looked forward, narrowed his eyes, and said lightly: "I can indeed feel a strong aura! I didn't expect Joey Boy to have kept this thing, interesting!"

What appeared in front of Xia Chen was an extremely huge circular deep pit, with a rough estimate of at least dozens of nautical miles in diameter.

Looking down, the darkness seemed to have swallowed up everything and I could not see anything.

"Lord Xia Chen, I'll leave the things below in your hands!" Neptune said respectfully.

"No problem! Since you've paid me, I'll naturally do what I promised you! And I'm quite interested in it!"

"Okay, no more words, I'm going to go down and meet this guy!"

After saying that, Xia Chen's body began to fall towards the deep pit at an incredibly fast speed, and instantly disappeared from Neptune's sight.

Looking at the huge pit in front of him, Neptune looked dim, and after a long moment he sighed and murmured in a low voice:

"The safety of Fishman Island is in your hands, Xia Chen! I hope nothing goes wrong!"

After saying that, Neptune turned and swam towards Fishman Island.

However, just as he was about to reach Fishman Island, several figures blocked his way.

"Neptune, long time no see! I wonder if you still remember me!"

"You...you are..."

Neptune's face showed a look of horror, and his eyes were fixed on the figure in front of him...

-

On this side, Xia Chen was still falling continuously. To be honest, this pit was really deep. From the time Xia Chen started falling to now, he had descended at least several thousand meters.

You know, even above the deep pit, it is already 10,000 meters deep sea, and now it is several thousand meters deeper on this basis, and it has not yet reached the bottom.

This was far beyond the deepest depth of his previous life.

Although it was pitch black here, Xia Chen was already familiar with this situation. It was the same when he was in the Eternal Night Sea before, so he didn't feel anything.

While falling, Xia Chen couldn't help but recall what Neptune had said to him a day ago.

After talking with Neptune, he realized that there were indeed many things in this world that he did not know. No wonder Neptune swore that he definitely did not know before telling him.

According to Neptune, there are actually two covenants passed down from Fishman Island eight hundred years ago. One of them is the Ship of Oaths known to all residents - Noah!

The other one is known by only a very small number of people, or even only one person in each generation. It is a secret passed down from generation to generation by the kings of the Dragon Palace Kingdom.

The Secret of the Midgard Serpent - Jörmungandr!!!

Legend has it that eight hundred years ago, Fishman Island suffered a huge crisis and was almost swallowed by a giant sea snake.

Fortunately, there was an extremely powerful human on Fishman Island at that time. It was because of his existence that Fishman Island was saved!

This human was Joyboy. Afterwards, Joyboy had a thrilling battle with the giant sea snake.

Because this sea serpent is so huge, people exaggeratedly call it the snake that can encircle the human world, or the snake that surrounds the world, so it was given the name of Jörmungandr!

The final result was that Joy Boy won after a hard fight, but for some unknown reason he did not choose to kill the snake after winning, but instead sealed it here with his extremely powerful domineering color.

This deep pit is where Joyboy sealed Jörmungandr! Joyboy once said that his seal could last for about 800 years. After 800 years, Jörmungandr would break the seal and come out, and Fishman Island would fall into crisis again.

In fact, it had been quite a while since Joyboy mentioned the eight hundred years. Neptune had originally thought that Jörmungandr had long ago died of old age in this deep pit. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Until a few years ago, a tremor was felt in this sea area, which could be clearly felt even on Fishman Island, dozens of miles away.

At that time, Neptune's first reaction was Jörmungandr, and then he rushed over without stopping.

The fact was just as he expected. There was indeed a vibration coming from here. And since that time, such vibrations have been heard from time to time in recent years. The time intervals have become shorter and shorter, and the intensity of the vibrations has become higher and higher.

This was clearly a sign that Jörmungandr was about to break the seal! He was not sure how long the seal would last!

But the problem is that Neptune has no way to deal with it. Although he doesn't know how strong Joyboy was eight hundred years ago, from the few words that have been passed down, it can be seen that he was very powerful.

At least he is not comparable to the strong men in the world today, so Neptune did not ask for help from Whitebeard who once protected them.

Because he couldn't guarantee that Whitebeard could resolve this crisis. If not, not only their Fishman Island, but even the Whitebeard Pirates might perish here.

It was not until Neptune heard the news that Xia Chen had defeated the Navy Headquarters alone that he felt that the opportunity had come!

This kind of strong man with gap-type strength is exactly what he is looking for!

He wants to take a gamble!

Bet Xia Chen can get rid of Jörmungandr!

This is undoubtedly a huge gamble! The safety of the entire Fishman Island depends on Xia Chen. If they lose the bet, there is a high probability that their Fishman Island will be destroyed! After breaking the seal, Jörmungandr will most likely continue to complete what it did not complete eight hundred years ago - swallow up the Fishman Island!

But the problem is that just sitting and waiting for death is also a death sentence. This seal obviously cannot last much longer. If Jörmungandr really breaks the seal by himself and no one can stop it, then it will be all over.

To be honest, when Xia Chen first heard about this, he felt like he was listening to a myth, which was somewhat abstract!

They even came up with a seal. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?

However, Xia Chen thought that it was even more unrealistic that he could even encounter Hades, the god of the underworld, so it didn't seem strange to encounter a seal.

Moreover, Joy Boy's Conqueror's Haki is indeed extremely powerful. In the original work, his Conqueror's Haki can be stored eight hundred years ago and used eight hundred years later.

This is already quite exaggerated, right? So it is not that hard to accept that a sea snake is sealed with Conqueror Haki now!

only……

Putting Joyboy in a tough fight? Really?

If that was the case, why was it possible to seal it for eight hundred years with just the Conqueror's Haki? Was it because Jörmungandr was already seriously injured and about to die? So he had no resistance at all?

Shaking his head, Xia Chen got rid of these thoughts in his mind.

Why think so much? He would know what was going on soon. He could feel that he was getting closer and closer to his goal.

Thinking of this, Xia Chen couldn't help but curl up a smile...
