Chapter 16 You can meet big shots even if you climb over the wall

In the end, after much consideration, Ye Zai decided to run away first. After his strength was fully recovered, he would come back to see if there was a chance to save Hancock and the others.

Not to say that Ye Zai was ruthless, but because his strength had not fully recovered, escaping by himself was probably already his limit. If he tried to be brave and brought Hancock and the others, it was likely that the last one would not be able to escape.

And since Tiger could climb up Mariejois, Ye Zai, who had the ability to control the wind, should be able to do the same.

Since he had already made a decision, Ye Zai did not hesitate anymore.

At night, when the other slaves were asleep, Ye Zai used a hand knife to cut through the iron cage with some effort and sneaked out.

Yasuo was also a "Sword Hero" level. Since he could use sword energy to attack, "Cutting Iron" was naturally not a problem.

Zoro could use "Bladeless Style", so could Ye Zai.

However, because "Yasuo" might not have enough stars, and Ye Zai had not fully recovered, it took a long time for Ye Zai to cut through an iron bar.

Fortunately, the iron cage was not made of "Seastone", otherwise, Ye Zai, who had no weapons, might not have been able to escape successfully.

As Ye Zai expected, although it was the gathering place of the "Celestial Dragons", his position was not very guarded.

After Ye Zai neatly twisted the necks of the two guards, he smoothly came to the cliff.

It was impossible to go through the main door. The only way out was the cliff against the sea.

Ye Zai was not an ability user, so it was not a problem for him to fall into the sea.

He had accompanied Saitama to train his physique for several years, coupled with [Gale Sword Hero]'s ability to control the wind, and his own half-baked superpower, climbing down this steep cliff should not be too much pressure.

"In fact, it should be more convenient to use [Sky Dance Technique].

However, he did not have much "Qi" now. After reaching the sea below, he did not know how long it would take to see land. Ye Zai wanted to save some strength to fly so that he could find a new foothold.

Using his half-baked superpower and the power of the wind, he supported his body.

Ye Zai easily relied on this half-climbing and half-supporting method to reach the mountainside.

It should not be a problem for him to climb to the bottom before dawn.

Because it was nighttime, Ye Zai was climbing down and could not see the situation below.

He had estimated the height of the cliff and the speed at which he was crawling to make this guess.

But when Ye Zai climbed halfway, his climbing butt obviously touched a foreign object.

"Is this the bottom?

Is the height of this cliff lower than I thought?

And this is obviously not the kind of feeling a rock should have. "

Ye Zai thought to himself. Then, he reached out his hand worriedly and touched the back of his buttocks to see if it was the bottom.

However, to his horror, at the same time that he stretched out his hand, another hand rose from below and touched his hand.

"Is it [Celestial] scum?

You who kidnapped my compatriots, this old man will bury you in the ocean right now. "

When he touched Ye Zai's outstretched hand, Ye Zai clearly felt that he was caught by a strong hand, and at the same time, there was a somewhat loud voice from the other party.

Ye Zai hurriedly explained when he felt the tremendous force that he was unable to break free from.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I'm not a [Celestial] trash, I'm a captured slave, I'm breaking out of prison, understand?"

"Celestial Dragons, those pampered guys, how could they be so bored to climb the cliff in the middle of the night?"

Hearing the other party's words, Ye Zai knew that the other party had obviously mistaken him for someone else.

To be able to meet a companion while climbing a wall in the middle of the night, there was really no one else.

"Indeed, those bastards Celestial Dragons really don't look like people who have the courage to climb this cliff."

"But you make me curious, you actually have the ability to escape from the Celestial Dragons."

The other party easily believed Ye Zai's words and let go of his hand.

Ye Zai's words were very persuasive, it was impossible for a Celestial Dragon to do such a thing at this time.

Ye Zai did not answer the other party's question, but was thinking about the other party's identity.

He climbed the cliff in the middle of the night to escape, then what was the other party doing?

And why did Ye Zai feel that the other party's behavior of climbing Mariejois was surprisingly similar to that of a certain Fishman.

He couldn't have just casually climbed over a wall and met another big shot, right?

But this time is not right. Hancock and the others were locked up for three years before Tiger came to liberate the slaves. How many days has it been now?

Could it be that Tiger came early?

Or was Hancock caught later?

Combined with the age of the Empress, Ye Zai was more inclined to the latter.

"Little brother, since you escaped from Mariejois, then do you know where the [Fishmen] are locked up?"

If it was because of the night before, Ye Zai couldn't see the other party's appearance and couldn't confirm the other party's identity.

Then Ye Zai could be 100% sure that the other party was the one who climbed up Mariejois with his bare hands, liberated the slaves, and became the future head of the Sun Pirates, Fisher Tiger.

Because the other party said that his compatriots had been captured before, and now he asked where the Fishmen were locked up, then it was definitely Tiger who didn't run away.

Tiger actually hoped that Ye Zai would go with him in his heart.

After all, he has never been to Mariejois, and it is likely that he won't be able to find the place where his compatriots are locked up.

However, it wasn't easy for him to escape, so Tiger felt that it wasn't right to ask him to go back with him and risk his life.

So he asked Ye Zai to see if he knew the whereabouts of his compatriots.

Ye Zai naturally knows the whereabouts of the Fishmen. They belong to the kind of race that is strong and rarer than ordinary people.

The place where they are locked up is closer to the residence of the Celestial Dragons, and the guard is naturally more strict.

The only thing in Ye Zai's heart now is whether he should accompany Tiger to save people.

If the original work is the same, Tiger finally left Mariejois safely.

But in the end, he was betrayed by the humans he rescued, and was finally injured in the pursuit, and then refused to transfuse human blood, leading to his death.

If he helps Tiger, he can get the friendship of the Fishmen, and the promise to Hancock and the others can also be fulfilled.

But the only thing that makes Ye Zai entangled is that Tiger can walk out of Mariejois alive, but it doesn't mean that he can too.

And just when Ye Zai was in a dilemma, the "system" that had been silent for a long time helped him to answer.

"Ding, discovered the second task: Help Fisher Tiger, liberate the slaves of Mariejois, and leave safely."

"Reward: 100 Hero Points, one chance to randomly draw a card."

Originally, Ye Zai wanted to retreat, because even if Ye Zai didn't go, Hancock and the others could be saved.

But now that the system has given a task, Ye Zai began to hesitate.

In order to deal with all kinds of similar emergencies in the future, Ye Zai is eager to become stronger, so Ye Zai only thought about Tiger's request and agreed to it.

"Big Brother, since you want to save your compatriots, then I will go with you, because I also have someone I want to save!"

Ye Zai has no choice, although the system did not say what will happen if the task fails.

But with the nature of the system, there will never be a good result if the task fails.

Furthermore, the mission reward this time was rather tempting for Yezai. The "Unknown Category – Hero Points" from before had actually appeared this time.

Although there are only 100 points, there is no doubt that this kind of thing is definitely something that can only be encountered by chance.

Ye Zai also completed a lot of tasks in the One Punch World before, but this reward has never appeared at all.
