One Piece: Rise of an Empire

As the people of Des approached slowly, a large number of ships appeared on the edge of the island.

The Des Pirates slowly approached the ship.

"Captain, these are pirate ships," Hela said.

"Des, the pointer is completely out of control." Ariel exclaimed to Des.

At this time, Des was also observing the surroundings, his sense of knowledge was fully open, and the surrounding ships were almost all empty. Dess suddenly sensed a person on a ship. Although the breath was very weak, but now Des's knowledge had reached its peak, and that faint breath could not escape Des's perception.

"shave"

Des dodged and arrived near the ship.

Des walked to the board of the ship in the eyes of everyone.

At this time Des came to a cabin door.

"bump!"

Des kicked open the door, when a man was lying on the cabin level.Des saw the man inside. At this time, the man was skinny and shivering in a corner.

"Hello."

Des yelled at the man.

The man didn't talk to Des, as if he didn't hear him. The way Des looked at him was very similar to those people who had finished taking drugs when they were on Earth.

Seeing that the man didn't speak, Des raised the man with one hand and returned to the boat with monthly steps.

Coming to the Flying Dream, Des put down the man in his hand,

At this time, Des and the man's eyes met.

The man looked at Des with horror in his eyes, but also a trace of pity?

Des naturally felt the man's eyes.

But Des didn't know what was going on.

"Hey, where is this?" Des asked the man.

"The devil...the devil...this is the Fallen City..." the man said tremblingly.

Fallen City?
At this time, Linlin came over, and the healing halo came to the man. The man's body slowly recovered, and after a while, he returned to his normal appearance.

"Linlin, what's wrong with him? Your healing ability can be used." Des asked.

"It should be, it seems that he must have taken some kind of drug, and he has used it for a long time. A large amount of toxins have accumulated in his body, and the drug dependence has flared up, so he is like this," Linlin said.

After the treatment, the man looked at his body in surprise, a little unbelievable.

"What's the matter with this place?" Des asked again.

The man panicked when he saw the people surrounding him, but he calmed down after a while.

Afterwards, the man told Des everything he knew. After learning about Des, he learned that this is a fallen city ruled by Samael. It is divided into three floors. Each floor will receive the water of longevity given by Samael. According to the man’s description, the water of longevity can make people stronger, but it will also lead to dependence. If they do not get the water of longevity for a period of time, people will go crazy.

The food in this city is also controlled by Samael. If you want to get more food, you have to enter the inner layer.

"It is said that there is a ranking in the innermost layer. The person who ranks first can get the Longevity Pill. Not only can he obtain the power of the Longevity Water, but he also has no dependence." The man finished slowly.

"Then you didn't think of running away?" Linlin asked.

"No, we can't get out. The smoke around us is very strong. We tried to escape, but we came back here again," the man replied.

"You know so much, aren't you an ordinary person?" Des asked again.

"No, I'm just a middle-level person," the man said.

"You're lying" was Linlin who spoke.

"No, you saved me, how could I lie to you?" the man said in a panic.

"Tell me, what rewards will I get for bringing newcomers in?" Linlin asked again.

At this moment, the man was shocked. How could they know these things?You must know that this reward has always existed, but no one has been there for a long time, so people slowly gave up this reward.Today he was lucky and a group of people came, they couldn't possibly know.

But he would never have thought that Linlin was the one with the system.

At this time, Des's momentum changed, and a strong sense of oppression was instantly exerted on the man.Men can't take the pressure very quickly.

"I said...I said..."

Hearing that the man was going to say something, Des put away his arrogance.

"Fallen City has regulations that bring in a newcomer to get a day's food and a glass of longevity water. After the few of you go in, I will have food for the next few days."

"And if I let you drink a cup of longevity water, we will get three cups of longevity water," the man said again.

"You know that longevity water is not a good thing, why do you drink it?" Des asked.

"So what if I know it, I drank it all, and I can't quit it," the man said miserably.

"Thank you for telling me so much." Des smiled.

"No, you're welcome"

The man suddenly felt something was wrong, and before he had time to turn around, he was knocked out by Des' palm.

Des then put the man back on his original boat.

After Des left, the ship was slowly wrapped in wood. Des didn't kill him directly, but trapped him on the ship forever.

Des has never been a kind person. Others are trying to trick you. Does Des want to save him?If there are benefits, it's okay, if there are no benefits, then Des is afraid of being tricked again.But Des was still soft-hearted and didn't kill him directly.Des may not care if he is outside, but it is different here. There are people on his ship who have no combat effectiveness, and he is responsible for the people on board.

"Bell, how many days of food do we have on board?" Des asked.

"We have enough food on board for a week," Bell said.

"Des, you don't plan to go to the island, it's too dangerous," Ariel said.

"If you don't go and have a look, wouldn't it be too boring, and they all came to this place," Des said.

Hearing what Des said, Levi smiled excitedly.

After that, Des said to everyone, "If you want to go, come to me."

After a while, Levi and Julie came over.

At this time, Des discovered that there were only 4 and three men among the eight people on board, which was somewhat yin and yang.

The few remaining people looked left and right, Linlin walked over first, and Des stopped the others who wanted to come over.

"The four of you stay here. Hela and Ariel protect our chef. And I will set up protection here."

The two chefs were relieved when they heard the news, because they almost belonged to the group without fighting power. If Des insisted on letting them go, then their survival rate would be very low.

Ariel wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything after thinking about it for a while.

"I have stored enough electricity on board, and if I don't sail, it won't be a problem for a few months," Linlin said.

With Dess's protection on board, and Hela and Ariel here, there should be no problems, Dess thought.

At this moment, Levi, Julie, Des, and Linlin got off the boat.

After disembarking, the Flying Dream was slowly wrapped by trees, and of course Dess left some air holes.The trees inside slowly grew fruit.

If there are four people, it is not a problem to live with so many fruits for a month.Des has made plans for a possible protracted war.

After all, the island is not small.

.....................

When the four arrived on the island, they smelled a rancid smell.

The island is full of rotting corpses.

The four of them walked slowly towards the interior of the island.

After Des walked inside, he finally saw the whole picture of the Fallen City.The Corrupted City has no walls or gates, but only rotten bones on the periphery.

After entering, there were fewer and fewer bones, but there were more and more skinny people, both men and women.Everyone looked at the four of Des.

People on this level looked at the four of them with no other expressions, but pity.

Des felt the eyes of everyone, and was speechless. Could it be that I am so pitiful when I come here?

"You four newcomers? Have you reported to the guards of the city lord?"

At this time, several people blocked the way of the four of them.

"Not yet, we just arrived here, ask what's going on here?" Des said.

At this time, the person who stopped Des said, "I just came here, then I will take you to report to the guards of the city lord, and let you experience our specialties by the way."

Several people were excited when they heard Des said that there was no report.

He led the four of Des to report.At the same time, he said, "This island is short of food. Those who come here are the people who are trapped here. The bones outside are the people who starved to death. What can solve the hunger here is our special Longevity Water. It can not only solve the hunger, but also increase our strength. After a while, you will feel it. Thanks to our great city owner."
