Grand Line.
A new World.
A ship with white sails was sailing on a calm sea.
The weather was calm and sunny, and cherry blossoms were falling from the sky from nowhere.
They floated smoothly in the air, landing gently on the deck of the ship and the surface of the sea.
"I didn't expect to see such a beautiful landscape in the New World.»
Robin came out of the cabin and admired the cherry blossom petals falling smoothly from the sky.
She reached out, intending to grab a few petals.
Initially, Robin thought that it might be some kind of mirage or illusion, but suddenly a real cherry blossom petal fell on her palm.
Surprised, Robin snatched it up with her fingers and began to examine it carefully.
"This is a real cherry blossom petal...»
"Perhaps the unpredictable weather of the New World brought them from some island.»
Yeruashi went on deck and looked up at the sky.
In his perception, these were indeed real sakura petals, this scene even made Yeruashi wonder about one person's ability, but he can't show up here because he belongs to another world.
Yeruashi explored the surrounding sea by activating Rinne Tenseigan.
Looking in the direction from which the cherry blossoms had come, he quickly discovered the island.
From this island, numerous cherry blossoms spread out across the sea in all directions.
"Hmm...»
"Since when has the climate of the New World become so welcoming?»
Yeruashi said thoughtfully and also reached out to catch the petal, then began to examine it carefully.
It had been more than ten days since they had left the Kalm Belt and started their journey to the New World, but in all that time, they had never encountered a storm or any other natural disaster.
The weather conditions were always very friendly.
But judging by all the known information, the climate of the New World should not be so safe.
"Hmm...»
At that moment, surprise flashed across Yeruashi's eyes.
He noticed something unusual in the captured cherry blossom petal.
The fine pollen that enveloped the cherry blossom petal slowly penetrated the skin of the palm, spreading like some kind of toxin, but since it has the body of the six paths, this pollen was immediately destroyed the moment it came into contact with the power of the six paths.
Yeruashi gently waved his hand, throwing out a petal, and then looked at Robin, who was still holding a cherry petal in her hand: "Hey, these cherry petals are poisonous.»
"Ah?!»
Robin shivered, noticing the strange discomfort in her body.
She felt a strong itching and burning sensation in her palms, neck, arms, and other exposed parts of her body that came in contact with the falling cherry petals.
"Ah...»
Robin immediately retreated to the cabin, but the feeling still didn't disappear, but instead began to spread all over her body, as if she had been smeared from head to toe with pepper.
Yeruashi smiled as he looked at the cherry blossom petals falling smoothly from the sky, " This is the second half of the Grand Line, something like this can happen here at every turn...»
He returned to the cabin and stopped Robin, who was about to go to the bathroom to clean up.
The tips of Yeruasha's fingers, wrapped in a pale emerald glow, gently slid over Robin's neck and shoulders.
Robin immediately felt a pleasant coolness radiating from Yeruashi's fingers.
The burning and itching that was increasingly engulfing her body began to quickly recede after contact with Yeruashi's fingers, until it completely disappeared.
"Everything.»
Yeruashi took Robin's hand and gave off a brighter emerald glow, clearing her of the large amount of toxin that had been absorbed due to prolonged contact with the cherry blossom petal.
Robin breathed a sigh of relief as she felt her body completely return to normal, " Thank you, mister.»
She blushed faintly, like a cherry blossom petal, remembering how Yeruashi's fingers had slid over her body.
Yeruashi turned to look at the cherry blossoms that were falling at the entrance to the cabins, and gently waved his hand.
Immediately, a strong wind blew, throwing all the cherry blossom petals from the deck of the ship into the sea.
The numerous cherry blossom petals in the sky above the ship also flew in different directions.
"The second half of the Grand Line is really very dangerous...»
Robin walked over to Yeruashi and looked warily at the deck of the ship: "One must always remain vigilant and cautious.»
Yeruashi turned his head, looking at Robin with a smile, "This sea is really not very friendly and you need to be a little more careful, but not too much, because I'm here.»
Such words coming from the mouth of an ordinary person might seem like nothing more than mere arrogance and bragging, but hearing these words from Yeruashi, Robin immediately felt relieved and blushed even more.
Just as she was about to say something, Yeruashi suddenly turned his head, looking in a certain direction with interest.
"What happened?»
Robin turned her head sharply to follow Yeruashi, but all she saw was an empty hallway.
Yeruashi's gaze penetrated through the cabins, looking out to the sea in the distance, and then quickly returned back: "Nothing, I just saw a pirate ship.»
A few dozen kilometers away, a large ship with a pirate flag was sailing across the sea.
All the pirates who were on the deck of this ship wore masks and cloaks that protected their bodies from contact with the cherry petals.
Several pirates were running back and forth on the deck with large buckets, washing away the falling cherry petals.
"We have arrived at the' Sea of Poison Sakura 'and should not be far from the' Island of Poison Sakura ' by now, Captain John.»
"Great, full speed ahead.»
Captain John, who was standing at the front of the deck, spoke calmly.
"Got it!»
The crew members standing nearby gave a chorus of exclamations and grabbed the ship's ropes.
They all looked at John with awe and awe, for their captain was one of the legends of this sea.
Captain John!
One of the crew members of the legendary Pirates of the Rocks, along with such monsters as the Kaido Beast, Big Mama, Belous and the Golden Lion!
Now he is one of the strongest pirates of the New World, with a reward of 2 billion 137 million 900 thousand belli!
After more than a decade ago, the Rox Pirates were defeated by the combined forces of SP-0, the Sea Watch, and Roger's Pirates, and Rox himself was killed by Golden Roger and the Watch Hero Garp, the strongest pirate team completely disintegrated, and Roger's Pirates began to dominate the expanses of the sea.
But many of the members of the disbanded Pirates of the Rocks quickly gained wide fame, starting to raise huge waves in the vastness of the sea.
The Kaido Beast and Big Mama became terrifying pirates, and the Golden Lion and Belous, who dominated the last era on a par with the Golden Roger, do not even need to be reminded!
At the moment when the ship began to gain maximum speed, the pirate, who was on the lookout point at the top of the mast, lowered his telescope and shouted: "Captain!»
"A medium-sized ship without a flag has been spotted for two hours, probably some kind of merchant ship!»
After listening to the report of the subordinate, Captain John immediately took a telescope and looked at a black dot in the distance: "I would not pay attention if the ship was going on a different route, but since we are 'on the way', I certainly do not intend to just let the merchant ship go...they can only bemoan their terrible luck...»
"Hahahaha, let's have some fun before meeting Belous! Adjust the course so that the fish will definitely not escape!!»
Yes.
He sails to meet Belous.
According to the newly received information, the Pirates of Belous should be located on the Island of Poison Sakura.
John would probably have been too lazy to pay attention to a merchant ship half-way along if it had been sailing on a different route, but since it was sailing a little ahead on the same route, the other side could only bemoan its sad fate and bad luck.
