"If I want to talk about the difference, the only thing I can think of is the special currents that occasionally appear in the nearby sea."

"Sometimes it is clearly broad daylight in the sea area near here, but there is a part of the sea area where darkness suddenly falls."

"Basically everyone who makes a living around here has encountered it."

"Oh?"

Although I only heard the beginning, it has completely aroused Tikki's interest.

"When night falls, that's when the monster appears!"

At this time, Norn, who had arranged for his men to buy medicine, also joined in their conversation. Teach noticed that when he said this sentence, all three people on the field had frightened expressions on their faces.

"What kind of monster?"

"It's a giant!"

"No! They should be angels. I have seen them with a pair of wings on their backs!"

"Anyway... in short, everyone has only seen the shadow of the monster."

"Isn't anyone trying to figure out why?"

"No... no one dares to go..."

"Someone had approached there before, but was washed up into the sky by the huge current. After the night cleared, the only things left floating on the sea were the wreckage of the ship and the bodies of these people."

"This must be a miracle... God lives above the black cloud in the sky..."

Goss's unconscious words attracted the attention of both Teach and Norn. Norn was a little anxious when he saw that Teach was deep in thought because of Goss's words.

He doesn't want to go to the West Sea just because he doesn't want to die. However, this kind of dangerous sea area is also irresistible by human beings. During the years of plundering in the nearby sea area, he even classified this area of ​​​​the sea area into the scope of the death sea area. Normally, he would not dare to do so. near.

"How can God live up there!"

Noen's face turned red, and he weakly refuted Goss's point of view.

"What did you say!?"

Goth glared at Norn.

Faced with the pressure of Goss's momentum, Norn was like a dead branch drifting in the wind and rain, looking crumbling, which made his brain become even more blank.

"Okay! When will this happen next?"

"If it is an updraft current, it will appear about five times a month. The latest one was at noon the day before yesterday, and the next one is estimated to be about two days away. But no one knows exactly when the black cloud will appear. "

"tomorrow morning!"

Just as everyone shook their heads together, a weak voice came from behind them.

Kulik leaned against the wall, and several of the younger brothers arranged by Norn to take care of him supported him anxiously and shouted: "Hey! Your injury is not healed yet, so you can't run around!"

Seeing that he woke up, Tiqi smiled and said hello: "Hey, you're awake."

"Did you just say that black clouds will appear tomorrow morning?"

"How did you know?"

The Goss people looked at him suspiciously. It was obvious that although they believed what he said that there was a huge amount of gold buried somewhere on the island, they still remained skeptical about other things he said.

"Speculation!"

Kulik forced a smile on his lips, sat on the tree stump, took a puff of cigarette and continued: "I don't expect you to believe me, but as far as I know this kind of black cloud is called 'Ji Emperor Cloud'."

"It will not accumulate at high altitudes or produce airflow and turn into rain. When it appears in the sky, even the sunlight will be blocked, and the day on the ground will turn into night."

"There is a saying that 'Jimei Clouds' are fossil clouds that have existed for tens of millions of years without changing and are constantly floating in the sky."

"how can that be!"

The people present had been drifting at sea all year round and were familiar with some climate phenomena. After hearing Kulik's words, they all had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

"I just said it, you are free to believe it or not."

"I believe!"

Goss and Norn wanted to refute him, but after hearing these two words uttered decisively from Teach's mouth, they all wisely chose to shut up.

"I bought the medicine!"

Just when they all fell into silence, the boy Norn sent out to buy medicine happened to come back.

So the boys hurriedly helped Kulik back.

night.

Around the warm bonfire, everyone gathered together happily, eating barbecue and drinking wine.

After Teach and Kulick had a drink, Teach suddenly asked: "Is it possible that the gold Rolando saw is in the sky?"

"Heaven?"

Kulik was startled, and then he saw Teach take out a piece of gold the size of a fist from his arms.

"This piece of gold fell from the sky today. I think this should be the gold discovered by your ancestor Rolando."

"I never thought that was a possibility."

"When I heard you talk about the 'Ji Emperor Cloud' just now, I was thinking that maybe it was because all the gold was washed up into the sky, so Rolando didn't find the gold in the first place."

"Is that really the case?"

"Hehe, we'll find out when the time comes."

Hearing Teach's laughter, Kulik swallowed subconsciously. From his plain tone, Kulik seemed to hear a hint of something called madness.

the next day.

Last night's carnival lasted until early morning. Under the influence of alcohol, Noen finally had a peaceful sleep. However, the side effect that followed was that his bladder could not bear the large amount of urine that was produced, and he was held back from his sweet dreams. woke up.

Noen opened his eyes drowsily, and it was still dark outside.

"What? It's not daylight yet."

After wandering to a corner, there was a splashing sound of water, and Norn shuddered happily. He was about to go back and take a nap, but his hazy eyes suddenly caught sight of a huge figure in the darkness.

"Strange...monster!"

Noen's sleepiness suddenly disappeared, and he suddenly woke up.

His shouts woke up all the others who were sleeping soundly in the open space, but after searching around, they could not find Tiqi's figure.

"Look! There's a boat over there!"

One of the boys suddenly pointed to the sea shrouded in darkness, where a small boat could be seen faintly rowing in the direction of the monster. The person rowing the boat was a sturdy figure, who seemed to be Teach.

In order to find out what happened to the Jet Cloud, Teach began to prepare after the dinner. It was not until dawn this morning, and then suddenly fell into darkness, that he knew that the Jet Cloud was coming.

So he hurriedly rowed the boat straight to the direction of the black shadow.

When he came to the edge of the Emperor Cloud and looked at the huge black shadow reflected on the sea, Tiqi's eyes flashed and he shouted excitedly: "Hahaha, it is indeed like this, I knew it!"
