Under the Light of the Pirate

Chapter 9 The Pointer Island
Time passed quickly, and the sky gradually became dark.

In the merchant ship heading for the great route, Robin was still looking at the sea outside the window.

In my mind, I kept recalling the bits and pieces between myself and Murphys over the years.A smile climbed the corner of Robin's mouth again.

Thinking of that magical [Heart Contract], the corners of Robin's mouth curved even wider.

The connection of hearts makes the tacit understanding between Robin and Murphys better and better, and they understand each other better.

Life and death together, a magical ability.No matter what kind of injury, it can be shared by two people.I didn't know it at the beginning, but later I realized that this ability can be controlled.

Blessings and misfortunes are shared, and the physical fitness and the progress of the six styles, armed arrogance, and knowledge-based arrogance can be transferred to another person!Although it takes a period of time for those who accept the progress of cultivation to get used to it before they can transform the accepted ability into their own strength, but this can also save quite a lot of time.

It has been four years since I had the [Contract of Heart].

In the past four years, Murphys relied on his fruit ability to temper his body desperately, and then practiced the six styles and armed domineering.

Robin, on the other hand, focused on developing Huahuaguo's ability, cultivating knowledge and arrogance, and then combined with his own situation with Murphys, to exercise intelligence collection and anti-tracking capabilities.

A year ago, Murphys and Robin exchanged each other's abilities through the sharing of blessings and blessings in [Contract of Heart].

Murphys' physical fitness, armed arrogance, and six styles were all given to Robin.

And all the knowledge and arrogance that Robin cultivated was given to Murphys.

The next step is to cultivate the abilities given to each other, and then absorb and transform the abilities given to oneself by the other party into one's own strength.

Perhaps because of the [Contract of Heart], the process of Robin and Murphys transforming the acquired abilities into their own strength went smoothly.

To what extent is it smooth, as if these abilities were cultivated bit by bit by myself!
Whether it is the perception during the cultivation process or the idea of ​​advanced development, it has been perfectly integrated into his own strength, without the slightest lag or disharmony.

However, to be on the safe side, Robin and Murphys, who exchanged abilities a year ago, have not exchanged abilities again since this year.

During this year, apart from fighting each other, the two of them went out to practice with pirates.While improving combat experience, you can also earn some extra money to improve your life.

It's just that during this year, apart from the six styles that Robin and Morpheus are proficient in, the remaining development directions are completely different.

Robin focuses on the development and use of knowledge-colored domineering, working towards the direction of "foreseeing the future" that Murphys said.Murphys, on the other hand, focuses more on the development and use of armed domineering, with the goal of "Iron Fist" Garp and "Black Arm" Zefa in memory.

As for the fruit abilities of the two, Robin is focusing on control and group battles. With the combination of armed domineering and knowledge-colored domineering, the progress is excellent.The route Murphys took focused on single-target attacks and assistance. In addition to the recovery ability of the original fruit, he also developed a lot of auxiliary and guardian abilities.

Of course, this is just the focus of the two people.

Robin also has a powerful single-target attack ability.

Murphy also has a strong group combat ability.

It's just that Robin is better at collecting intelligence, finding enemies, and analyzing weaknesses, while Murphys is better at hammering, beating, and smashing people.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

"Should be almost to Upside Down Mountain, Robin."

In the guest room of the cabin, Murphys, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly spoke.

"Yes, the ship did not stop halfway. According to the speed and distance of the ship, the ship will pass the Reverse Mountain this afternoon and enter the great route."

Robin, who was sitting quietly reading a book by the window, heard what Murphys said, and replied without raising his head.

"what--"

"It's finally time to enter the great route, so I'm looking forward to it."

With that said, Murphys turned over and got up from the bed.

"I'm going out to buy some food, what do you need?"

"Rum, apples, and safety."

Robin looked up at Murphys and rolled his eyes helplessly.

She knew that Murphys just wanted to go out and see the scenery of Upside Down Mountain.

Murphys, who was careful to be exposed, was not embarrassed, he waved his hand, indicating that he knew, and then walked out.
-
Great route, Pointer Island.

Murphys and Robin, who left the merchant ship, were wandering the streets of Pointer Island.

"Pointer Island, the starting island of the seventh route of the great route."

"The specialty of this island is the nautical pointer. In addition to the ordinary nautical compass, permanent pointers pointing to all the islands of the seven routes in the first half of the great route can also be bought on this island."

"It is said that the island itself is a permanent pointer pointing to the Chambord Islands in front of the red earth continent."

Murphys was walking around this lively island, looking curiously at the distinctive pointer shops on both sides of the road, while listening to Robin's explanation of the island.

"In other words, we can collect permanent pointers to all the islands in the first half of the great route on this island, and then go directly to Alabasta?"

"..."

After hearing what Murphys said, a "#" appeared on Robin's forehead.

"Murpheus—"

"Did you not read the information about the great voyage I prepared for you on the ship before?"

Feeling the sudden drop in the air pressure around him, Murphy's heart trembled, and his desire to survive instantly exploded, "That... Robin."

"Don't be angry first~"

"Didn't I want to have you here? So I don't need me... right..."

"Ahem——the most important thing is, I haven't been thinking about it before. Now that I have arrived on a new island, should I buy some souvenirs for you?"

Hearing Murphys' "sophistry", Robin pouted and said nothing, but turned and walked into a shop selling pointers.

Looking at Robin's back, Murphys couldn't help wiping the cold sweat off his forehead with his hands.

In my impression, Robin is the image of an intellectual big sister, even if she has a dark belly, she is quite cute.How could it be as violent as it is now~
Look at the young ladies in other people's homes, and all kinds of "whispering" when they don't agree with each other.

Then look at my young lady, if there is a disagreement, directly [Thirty rounds of flowers blooming], and then attach the armed domineering, and then there is a combination of [Finger Gun] and [Finger Gun·Dial] "biubiubiu"~
I want my life~
Murphys thought about it carefully again, Robin's irritable temper seems to have been cultivated (petted) by himself? !I can only grit my teeth and bear it~
Morpheus, who was guilty, accompanied Robin on the Pointer Island for a whole day. After purchasing all the permanent pointers that could be purchased, he found a restaurant and prepared to enjoy the joy of entering the great route with Robin. first meal.

"Nah, nah, this restaurant is not bad, this little thing is very interesting."

After ordering, Robin and Murphy, who were sitting on the table, looked at the small pointer embedded in the side of the table, feeling very novel.

"Hmm... Let me see... Is it pointing at the dedicated waiter at our table?"

After hearing what Murphys said, Robin's attention was also attracted by this small pointer.

I looked up at the position of the waiter, and then looked down at the small pointer on the table, a very interesting little thing.In the boring situation of waiting for the food, it can be regarded as a kind of pastime.

With something to pass the time, the process of waiting for the food seems to be less difficult.

Dishes made from Neptune meat, paired with a bottle of expensive red wine, made both Murphys and Robin very satisfied with the meal.

Of course, the price is not generally expensive.For one meal, Murphys and Robin ate 120 million Baileys.

Emmm... A little pirate who could be famous in the West Sea was "eaten" by Murphys and Robin.

Leaving the restaurant, on the way to the hotel.

Robin took Murphy's arm, as if taking a walk—well, it was actually a walk.

18岁的罗宾身高1米85，18岁的墨菲斯1米93。

"Seriously, do you have any plans?"

Robin, who is full of food and drink, has a lazy charm on his body.

"Ah? What do you say?"

Regarding Robin's question, Murphys neither affirmed nor denied it, but raised his eyebrows and looked at Robin with a smirk.

Robin thought about it carefully, leaned his head on Murphy's shoulder, and said softly...

"First, when we left West Sea, the 'tail' was not handled cleanly enough."

"In Inuit Island, although no one saw me board a merchant ship, there are quite a few people who saw you board a ship."

"Second, Leander Island."

"Although all the people on the island were knocked out when we started, there are quite a few people who saw the two of us going to the island together."

"Third, before we set off, when I was collecting information on Inuit Island, I found that two Vice Admirals of the Navy Headquarters were about to arrive in the West Sea for the purpose of Leander Island."

"Combining these three points, through the residents of Leander Island, the Navy will know that the two of us are together."

"Then based on the information available on Inuit Island, we will know which merchant ship we boarded."

"Finally, it's easy to track down a merchant ship with naval power."

"After comparing the news, the navy can easily know the great route we landed on this island."

"so……"

"The two lieutenant generals from the Navy Headquarters will hunt them down soon!"

"If I'm not mistaken, the navy will catch up to this island in seven days at most, and at least four days."

"After all, the speed of the naval warship is much faster than the merchant ship we took."
