The Mysterious Journey of the Pirate World

Chapter 77 The Tree of Sighs
When Sithun was about to leave the port, Voda and Gage also returned by "human raft"...

"What kind of ship is this? Where's your Devil's Horn?" Si Thun frowned and looked at Voda, with disgust in his tone, as if he felt that this fellow was discrediting the Giant Axe Pirates.

"I... We were ambushed by the murlocs halfway through." Voda was also a little afraid of Sithun, after all, Sithun was the Master's right and left hand, and now his subordinates are still alive and dead, and his confidence is even more insufficient.

Partly to divert the topic and part to emphasize his own merits, Voda quickly introduced: "This is Mr. Gage of the Vinsmoke family, the Master's guest..."

"So you were ambushed with a guest?" Si Thun's face became more gloomy.

Under the shadow of Sithune, Voda had already shrunk in a circle. Although he wanted to say that the Master was ambushed by the murlocs before, thinking about it would only lead to a miserable death.

"I-I have to save people back..." Voda said stutteringly.

"Then go quickly!" Si Thun whispered.

Obviously, he was holding back his anger so as not to disturb the "guests".

After meeting Gage, Sithoon put on a smile: "Mr Gage wants to buy slaves? Those murlocs don't have to worry anymore, I have already found a good 'bait'... If you want to buy a lot of them Enter the fish man, you can wait a little longer."

Si Thun was not in Aix Island before, and he didn't know what Gaji was here for. He just thought he was a "guest who came to buy slaves".

"No, Captain Silver Axe and I have cooperation matters to discuss." Jage looked as if he didn't care about the internal affairs of the Giant Axe Pirates.

"So that's the case, then I'll take you to see the Master!" Sithune still looked enthusiastic, but he immediately became alert.

From what he knew about the Master, the only reason for "cooperating" with people should be annexation - unless the partner is stronger than the Giant Axe Pirates.

The current Germa Corps... is obviously not among the "stronger"!
Si Thun took Gazhi to find the silver axe that had returned, but he still escorted Aaron and others. Zig couldn't find a chance, so he could only follow him all the way.

On the way, Zig found that the direction of Si Thun was exactly the same as the direction of Boss Tiger's life card - they were all in the direction of the giant tree in the center of the island.

Zig also followed along...

The area of ​​Aix Island is similar to that of Drum Island. It does not have as many mountains that take up space as Drum Island, but it has an additional giant tree that also takes up space.

In terms of tree canopy, most of the island is under it.

At this time, the sky was getting brighter, and Ziger also found that the island tree had very dense branches and leaves, which made the whole island look very dark, and because the tree also had black and purple flowers that seemed to be pustules, emitting pollen, which made the sky appear dark. Dim up.

Aix Island is different from the general island countries on the great waterway. Outsiders are not welcome. Others except the Giant Axe Pirates are "big customers" and... the largest number of slaves!

Many of the "aboriginal people" on the island are related practitioners.

The social structure of the islands actually controlled by the big pirates is roughly divided into three categories:

The first type is normal rule, such as Dressrosa more than ten years later - if you don't know the truth, Doflamingo is both Shichibukai and a normal king in the eyes of outsiders. Dressrosa is also famous. The city of passion is not special because the king is a pirate;
The second type is oppressive rule. For example, the current Wano country - Kaido unites with the black carbon snake, and does the best to squeeze the Wano country, just to squeeze every bit of strength to arm and nurture itself, but still maintain With the existence of "Wono Country";

The third type is full control, such as BigMom's Cake Island - except for the relevant personnel of the BigMom Pirates on the island, they are ordinary residents who regularly dedicate their souls to BigMom, and are completely dependent on the existence of the "country" of the Pirates.

In terms of social structure, Aix Island is somewhat like BigMom's cake island.

It's just that many ordinary people on Cake Island are "patissiers", which are harmless and normal occupations, while Aix Island is basically a slave trade-related industry, paying a lot of taxes to Silver Axe.

These islands tend to have the most control...

……

After leaving the port, Situen had already arranged a "carriage" - a row of half-horse horses!
It's not a special race, but the coolie slave's ability to be operated on, connecting the upper body to the horse.

Gage is very... interested in this apparently unethical scene!

"Is this the ability of the fruit of surgery? It's really amazing!" Jiazhi looked at this scene with glowing eyes.

Although he had seen a similar scene with Voda, it was still a "graft" between people, just a capable person, and Voda would not let him take a good look at it.

"That's right, these coolies are now living longer and longer. For ordinary people like this, they can have a ten-year lifespan when they are connected to Bamo Island's specialty workhorses! The service life of Bamo's workhorses is generally as long as It's only been ten years, which is equivalent to the advantages of being obedient and easy to tame." Si Thun introduced the situation.

This is not confidential, but product information that is normally disclosed...

This is why, in the Giant Axe Pirates, only the masters and cadres have signs of transplantation - if the physique is not enough to support, it will burn life!

The "centaur" pulling the cart turned a deaf ear to this cargo-like evaluation, and just pulled the cart quietly.

Si Thun praised the strength of his Master, but in Gage's ears, he calculated it from a professional point of view - the fruit of the operation... Sure enough, it can solve the mismatch of the bloodline factor to a great extent. The side effects are just not perfect.

Zig didn't know what they said. After leaving the port, considering that there were not many people on the road, Zig didn't follow too close.

I don't know why, but it seems that there are traces of human existence, even the appearance of a block, but there are no people along the way.

Zig's domineering look has a hidden effect, but his body does not have a special hidden effect, and it is easy to be found when he is close.

It's a pity that I'm not an "assassin"... ah!No, not a pity!

At this time, Ziger was tracking out of sight. To be precise, he was "tracking"-through the ability of "reasoning students" to lock the clues along the way, not only maintaining a very long distance, but also Ziger was confident, even halfway. The other party escorted Aaron and others separately, and Zig was able to lock the correct path!

All the way to the island tree, the other party seems to have no intention of locking Aaron and the others elsewhere.

Ziger had already seen the trunk of the island tree at this time, and found that there were many entrances with markings on it. The outside was carved with stairs, outer platforms, and windows, just like a huge city-level castle.

It is said that the trunk of the island tree should be difficult to process and excavate, right?Roger's ship was only built by Uncle Tom, the world's number one shipbuilder...

However, thinking of the fruit ability of the silver axe, Ziger felt that this was not surprising.

As he got closer, Sieg couldn't help but feel a bit of discomfort—I saw the faces of people twisted in pain on the tree trunks around the entrances.

It's not the uncanny valley effect, but a genuine human face, or a human head, transplanted into a tree...

The tree of sighs - what this tree was called before, Zig didn't know, but after the silver axe was stationed here, it was called that...
