Hidden in East Blue

Chapter 151: Hidden in East Blue

"It's a restaurant on the sea, Restaurant Baratie. The food is even more delicious than I imagined."

Having a feast at the Restaurant Baratie, Solo's mood became much smoother. There is no pressure on Summit War and no need to fight anyone. Such a day is the true sense of freedom.

"There will only be more and more days like this in the future."

Solo thought to himself, full of longing for the future. After the Summit War, the center of the Pirate World is the second half of the Grand Line. Even if new pirates are in the four seas, their strength could be better.

After Smoker is transferred from the G5 branch, they will send a new chief to Loguetown. At that time, they patrolled the sea daily and hit the pirates they met. Solo can retire with peace of mind.

"When you have nothing to do, go fishing at sea, or come to Restaurant Baratie to enjoy the food."

Solo glanced at the menu of Restaurant Baratie; the food is not only delicious but also varied. Most importantly, although Sanji is gone, Zeff, who taught him, is still the chef here.

Whether it is innovation or something else, there are sufficient guarantees. On the contrary, Robin and Perona couldn't understand Solo. Especially Robin, in her heart, Solo has always been a man with both scheming and strength.

Robin didn't believe that he could retire in Loguetown with peace of mind. In Solo's heart, there must be some kind of plan. It's just that she doesn't know it yet.

Of course, Robin wasn't too entangled, and after not knowing the truth, she was also feasting and having a good taste of the food; it was really as rumored say.  

"Okay, it's time for us to go back?"  

Solo took a break in his seat and put the money on the table. During the journey, he took away half of the marine forces in Loguetown. On the one hand, it is to taste the food of Restaurant Baratie. On the other hand, it is also patrol work at sea.  

Pirates who have not yet formed power will be strangled in the cradle. As Solo got up, he walked out of Restaurant Baratie. Katz, Robin, Perona, and others followed suit, ready to return to Loguetown.  

However, just as Solo and his party came to Restaurant Baratie's deck, a shadow suddenly enveloped them.  

"Huh?"  

Solo frowned slightly, "Is a storm coming?"  

In his impression, the weather in East Blue is less weird and changeable than in the New World. Before leaving, Solo deliberately read the weather forecast. Recently, it has been a great sunny day.  

"No, it's not a storm, Ensign Solo; look at the sky!" Katz couldn't help but exclaim. His eyes were wide open, and his jaw seemed to drop in surprise.

Perona, Robin, and other marines raised their heads and looked at the sky after hearing the words.

"Tha-that is..." Robin's face suddenly turned pale.

As an Ohara survivor, she's traveled a lot over the years; her experience can be said to be very rich. But it was the first time she saw a picture like the one before her.

"This..." Hearing this, Solo quickly focused his gaze on something that shocked Katz and the others.

The shadows hanging over the sea were not rain clouds but an island. An island suspended in the sky!

Are you kidding?!" Perona blinked hard, seriously wondering if she had some hallucinations. Otherwise, how to interpret the picture in front of her?

How could an island appear in the sky? What kind of kinetic energy is supporting it? Unbelievable!

Soon, the entire Restaurant Baratie fell into an unprecedented commotion, whether it is a diner who comes admiringly. The chefs and service staff came to the deck one after another.

"Why is there an island in the sky?" A diner was dumbfounded.

"What a spectacle."

Suddenly, the people gathered on the deck started talking about it. As a traverser, Solo knew very well what was going on.

"If my guess is correct, the person who can do this should be the great pirate who lived in the same era as Roger and Whitebeard, Golden Lion Shiki."

The image of Shiki, the Golden Lion, could not help but emerge. Like a lion, Shiki has long golden hair, the tip of which could even touch the ground, and even his beard is golden yellow with a rudder stuck in his head and wears a traditional kimono with his feet having Oto and Kogarashi.

"When Roger surrendered, Shiki went to the Marine Headquarters for a battle but was defeated by Garp and Sengoku and was imprisoned in Impel Down. After a few years, Shiki escaped from Impel Down and became the first prisoner in history to escape from Impel Down and has been living in seclusion in East Blue since then..."

Suddenly, Solo's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized.

"That's right, Golden Lion Shiki has been hiding in East Blue. How could I forget about this..."

For a while, Solo frowned. He cared and focused on Summit War and almost forgot that there was such a pirate in East Blue that was hidden so deep that the Marines had never been aware of his whereabouts.

"The meteor incident that Aokiji mentioned earlier was probably caused by Shiki."

Solo suddenly thought of the incident that Aokiji had mentioned. In any case, Shiki can't concentrate 24 hours a day. After all, except for the Blackbeard, the other powerhouses are creatures that need to sleep.

While Shiki relaxes, a boulder falls from the suspended island. Naturally, it is not a strange thing.

"Although the combat power of the Pirates from the movie version is fascinating, the original author designed Golden Lion Shiki and Douglas Bullet as both famous big pirates in the main story..."

According to the original plot development, the failure of the Golden Lion Shiki was caused by the Straw Hats, who returned to East Blue. However, because of him, Luffy's plot has been greatly changed.

He failed to invite Robin aboard, nor did he meet Brook. Now, he was imprisoned in Impel Down. Naturally, he doesn't have the energy to deal with Shiki.

"At this time..."

Solo connected all of this. It seems that Shiki is planning to leave the mountain at this time, and theisland's directiond in the sky is Loguetown.
