One Piece: The Eternal Flame

In fact, it should be more effective to hand over such negative articles to other people in the World Economic News, but that will mislead some people.

Cyborg, Zefa and Garp were very impressed with Lou Jiu, and knew that Lu Jiu would stay on Gray's ship for the time being.

Some time ago, the newspaper even published an ambiguous photo of her and Gray.

So Lu Jiu would not write such a critical manuscript.

When the three of them saw the newspaper for the first time, their first reaction was anger. After calmly reading and seeing Lu Jiu's signature, they would think about how many twists and turns there were.

Gray succeeded, which of course also depends on how much trust the three have in him.

At the same time, the Roger Pirates, who were waiting for the successful coating of the hull in the Chambord Islands, also saw this report.

Headed by Roger, several tall and thick men squatted on the ground in a circle, looking at the newspaper in Roger's hand in unison.

"Grey is such a jerk." Roger finished speaking indignantly, stood up and returned the newspaper to Raleigh who was standing aside.

He said to Lei Li confidently: "Other than that, I don't see anything!"

Everyone who stood up with the captain nodded in unison.

"Tsk..." Reilly punched Roger in the face, gritted his teeth, and said, "With brains like yours, I shouldn't have asked you."

"Damn it, what can you see?" Roger asked aggrievedly, covering his cheek.

"Didn't you see the signature in the newspaper?"

"I see, of course it's Lu Jiu!"

Roger said loudly: "I will always believe in Lu Jiu's report! I didn't expect Hei Yan to be such a person. If I knew it, I would have pulled Ace and Lu Jiu over!"

"Move my rusty brain!"

Lei Li said angrily: "Lu Jiu joined Black Fireworks, do you think she would have written such a derogatory report without Black Flame Gray's instruction?"

Roger's facial features were tangled together. When he used to wear a straw hat, he looked like a melon boy. Now that he has replaced the straw hat with a red captain's hat, his temperament has not changed in the slightest.

Everyone thought for a while, and then suddenly realized that their right hand clenched a fist and bumped into the palm of their left hand, "Oh~~~There is an inside story!"

Roger looked at the people behind him, and then he seemed to be unresponsive, and he said after a while: "Oh~ I understand."

"Shut up, you idiots." Rayleigh rubbed his eyebrows, knowing that they hadn't thought about it at all.

"Hei Yan must have wanted to convey a message through this message. When we know these premises, we can deduce that he did not kill those scholars."

Raleigh already has an idea. Contacting the previous historical texts and O'Hara's historians, he has already been able to understand Gray's purpose in doing so.

As for these, there is no need to explain to the idiots for the time being.

They couldn't understand it.

"Anyway, what I told you just now is rotten in my stomach." He looked at Roger and the others, "It might affect the Black Firework Pirates if they know about it."

"Don't worry, Raleigh." Roger pressed his hat down, and finally became more serious, "We, as long as we know that the other party has his own reasons, after all, we are friends after having a banquet hahahahahaha."

In the conference room of the World Government, four middle-aged men were sitting or standing, and they were also discussing the sudden incident in O'Hara.

"What do you think?"

"Black Flame Gray has indeed been looking for clues to the main text of history. It is not surprising to go to O'Hara."

"Those scholars are stubborn and fanatical. Just being killed like this will save us the time to find evidence. They should have died long ago."

"This matter is still full of doubts. Is the only survivor awake?"

"No, the intelligence said that the injury was serious, and if he didn't deal with it in time, he would definitely die, so the possibility of fraud is basically ruled out."

"Forget it, the deaths of those scholars are beneficial to us, but Hei Yan helped us by accident."

"After the survivor wakes up, withdraw half of the people monitoring O'Hara."

"Has Carnegie not come back yet?"

"No, he said it will take a while."

"What is he doing?"

"Something happened in the new world, he went to have a look."

-

Gray and Oden boarded the deck of the Sword Pirate Ship under Tracy's shocked gaze.

Tracy said, "Didn't you kill people in O'Hara?"

With such a long distance, even if it crosses the windless belt straightly, it cannot be so fast.

"correct."

Gray breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly asked: "Is your boat also in the belly of the lantern fish?"

"What do you mean?" Terese frowned. "You know how to attract that fish?"

"I know, so I'm asking you to get closer if you want to follow, and stay away if you don't want to go."

Teresi didn't hesitate, "Of course I'm going. I have a crew member who was swallowed. By the way, Zell was sent by me to chase that fish. They will definitely chase it back."

"it is good."

Gray nodded and took out the pure gold.

At the same time, he said to Mi Tian: "Mi Tian, ​​a very important task is entrusted to you. You stay outside. You know Zell, the deputy captain of the Sword Pirates. Wait for them to come and explain the matter."

"Yeah, leave it to me!" Oden nodded vigorously.

After Oden rowed the boat away from here, Gray took out the pure gold from the box.

For a moment, a more dazzling golden light enveloped everything around.

Mr. Lantern caught the light that was far away enough to attract it, ignored the bugs around him, and dived directly into the deep sea to swim towards the place where the light radiated.

Soon, it saw the light, and swallowed everything on the sea surface without thinking.

With these lights, the illuminators above its head brightened even more, and it liked such things.

-

The boat Sam had asked for was finally built.

He took two pirates and rowed towards the lower stomach.

The rest were ordered to find others who had hidden in the forest.

At this time, Sam reckoned that Annie, who had been poisoned, would be unable to move her entire body.

The remaining people are a threat, but there are more people alive on his side, and the final result must be that he wins.

The boat entered Lord Lantern's second stomach smoothly.

Sam looked at the excitedly waving crew members on the island and asked, "Is the main ship here?"

"Not here, captain, the main ship should be washed down." A pirate replied.

"Okay, just bear with me for a while, and I'll take you back when I find the main ship." Sam smiled reliably, and led the two pirates to the third stomach.

On the beach of the small island, the main ship was dilapidated, surrounded by corpses killed in a fight, and a pool of black blood seeped into the sand, dyeing the place a conspicuous black.

This blackness spread to the depths of the forest drop by drop.

Sam raised the corners of his mouth, ha, Alfred, you are so embarrassed that you can't even erase the traces.

It's not good to stay on board, so I have to play this kind of cat and mouse game.

At the same time, Alfred's sense of knowledge also captured the breath that belonged to Sam.

"Heh." He smiled wryly. The worst situation is like this. Sam came here himself, and he will inevitably fight with the other party.

Although after this period of training, Alfred's physical condition is a little better, but only a little bit.

In a seriously injured state, he couldn't beat Sam at all.

Well, Alfred got up from the ground, took his samurai sword, and walked towards Sam.

If he had to die, Alfred hoped that he could be killed by Gray, but this situation is impossible now.

He can only take the next best thing and hope that he can die in battle with dignity.

Sam raised his eyebrows, seeing Alfred's breath coming from a distance.

He quickened his pace and went straight to meet him, drawing a boomerang and a dagger behind his back.

The remaining two followed behind him, watching their surroundings vigilantly.

We will meet each other soon.

Sam raised a smile, "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Alfred remained silent and made an attacking gesture.

Sam was not angry either, he just kicked his feet and rushed up first.

The boomerang in his hand was wrapped in the armed color, drawing a beautiful arc like a black shooting star. At the same time, he held the dagger, intending to stab it obliquely from top to bottom.

Alfred looked at the menacing Sam, the samurai sword vertically blocked the boomerang flying from the side, the broken blade on the upper end of the blade automatically split, and rushed towards Sam with a blue streamer.

Sam turned over to avoid the blade, and at the same time as he landed, two screams came from behind him.

The two pirates who came with him had already fallen to the ground, and pools of blood quickly spread out from under them.

Sam didn't care about the life and death of these two people. He caught the boomerang that flew back and came to Alfred's side. He turned the dagger in a circle in his hand, and quickly changed from a pronated grip to a reversed grip.

The speed was so fast that Alfred didn't have time to raise his knife to block, so he could only lean back quickly. Sam's dagger fell into the air, and the sharp poisoned blade was only millimeters away from Alfred.

Missing a hit, Sam threw another boomerang, spinning and kicking.

The fragments of the blade hit the leg wrapped in the armored color, but they didn't hurt the opponent at all, but he was bounced away.

The remaining fragments stood in front of him, but they fell apart after only carrying it for a moment.

Alfred dodged the boomerang, which was hard to defend against, but was kicked out in an instant, knocked down two thick trees, and finally fell to the ground.

In this state, even the reaction was half a beat late.

Alfred covered his mouth, bleeding from between his fingers, looked at the boomerang flying in his field of vision, holding his samurai sword and stubbornly wanted to stand up again.

Can't think of leaving the world government alive, and leaving the city of advancement alive, but will be folded in this kind of place?
His vision darkened for a while, and Alfred simply accepted the coming darkness calmly, but nothing happened.

His ears clearly caught the sound of swords colliding, and the next moment, he fell into a warm and familiar embrace that smelled of sea water.

A powerful heart was beating regularly, hitting his eardrums.

It made him feel relieved for no reason. After the tense muscles and nerves relaxed, he felt a surge of fatigue.

There were no harsh words, nor did he pretend to be majestic. Gray just glanced at Sam, and Sam felt oppressed that he couldn't look at him.

He couldn't help but stop his forward steps, his nails dug into his palms tightly to maintain his superficial calm at the moment.

"Fred"

Gray frowned tightly, the person in his arms was cold all over, and lost more than a little bit of weight, and the sticky blood stained all the torn bandages into a shocking black red.

He would rather these wounds fall on himself, no matter how deep or long, as long as Fred doesn't suffer from them.

Nothing like this would have happened if he hadn't sent Fred to Dressrosa.

In the final analysis, Gray blamed himself for what happened.

"Boat doctor!" He looked at Teresi and the others who had arrived late.

Tracy hurriedly said, "Ariel!"

"Yes." Ariel, the ship's doctor, rushed over with the medicine box in agony, and said cautiously but boldly: "Captain Gray, let him lie down first."

Gray nodded, let Fred lean on his lap first, took off the coat and rolled it up, and then carefully let Alfred pillow on the clothes.

"Please." After doing all this, Gray stood up, and the indescribable anger filled all the limbs and bones of his body, making him eager to vent.

He slowly raised his head and looked at Sam, but his flat tone was full of danger.

"Are you... ready?"

Before Sam had time to think about the meaning of this sentence, he saw that Gray had already drawn out the western sword. The blade was wrapped in the color of the weapon, and it was burning with a pitch-black flame.

Time went back to when Lord Lantern swallowed the pure gold.

A large number of seawater and ships poured into the esophagus. Because of the reminder of the incident, everyone landed in the No. [-] stomach bag quite smoothly.

Gray scanned the place with knowledge and knowledge, but did not see Alfred's figure, but found two groups of people fighting in the depths of the forest.

They rushed over to deal with the rest of the Sam Pirates, and saw Anne lying on the ground, conscious but unable to move.

The ship's doctor said that this poison was exactly the same as the poison Tracy had received before, in that it made people lose consciousness first, and then lost consciousness.

The current solution can only go back to Dressrosa to find Nora.

From the survivors of the Sam Pirates, they learned that Sam went to other stomachs to find the main ship.

However, how to cross the sea of ​​stomach acid has become a problem.

"Swim over." Gray stepped into the stomach acid, but lost his strength the next moment, and was dragged ashore by Tracy.

"Don't be so reckless!" Teresi frowned, "The ability users should stay away from here."

"Damn it, find a way to get there as soon as possible!" Gray was also anxious, "Where are you shipwrights!"

"It's me! It's me."

The boatman weakly raised his hand, "Stomach acid can't dissolve metal. It happens that Captain Gray has the ability to use flames. We can melt metal to cover the bottom of the ship with metal."
