Pirate: Just ask, I know everything

The bonfire was burning quietly, occasionally emitting a few "beeps", which made the surrounding environment seem even quieter.

The Straw Hats and the Aruyama Alliance were sitting on the ground around the fire pit.

Uncle Curiket had already told the story of his ancestor Nolandu under the influence of alcohol.

This tragic and long-lasting story is full of the deep friendship between friends.

The Straw Hats, who always value the bond between partners, were deeply moved.

Sanji was the one who had the strongest reaction.

After all, as a person born in Beihai, he had heard the story of "The Great Liar Nolando" since he was a child.

But in this story, Nolando is just a ridiculous little character who tells lies.

But in Uncle Curiket's mouth, Nolando's image took a 180° turn.

He is smart, kind, brave and tenacious, insists on the truth, and would rather die than surrender. He can be called a hero on the sea.

This shocked Sanji.

"It turns out that the real story behind Nolando is like this." Sanji murmured to himself.

"It's okay to die unjustly. After death, he will be made up into a story and laughed at for hundreds of years. He is really a tragic figure!"

"Yes." Zoro also said silently, "If such a manly man is still alive, I really want to have a drink with him."

Everyone smiled slightly, Zoro still loved drinking so much.

At this time, Luffy suddenly lowered his straw hat, stood up silently, and walked towards the sea.

"What's wrong with you, Luffy?" Usopp asked strangely.

This guy was very excited when he was listening to the story just now. He was moving around in his seat.

Why did the story end now without saying a word and walking away alone?

Faced with Usopp's question, Luffy did not answer.

Instead, he walked all the way to the coast, suddenly took a deep breath, raised his head to the sky and shouted: "This is amazing!!!!"

Curiket was slightly stunned by Luffy's roar, but the rest of the Straw Hats acted as if it was natural.

After roaring, Luffy seemed to have finished venting. He turned to Curiket and showed a confident smile.

"Uncle, I have decided that I must find the lost golden land of Shandorla and prove to everyone that Nolando is not a big liar, but a great hero."

Curiket opened her mouth in surprise.

Over the years, I don’t know how many people have heard him tell this story.

But most people are either indifferent or just sigh with regret.

Luffy was the only one who actually decided to inherit Lando's will and go find Shantora.

This obviously has nothing to do with him, but he said it so seriously!

"Boy, are you sure?" Kulikat looked drunk, but in fact his eyes were twinkling.

"Don't get carried away in a moment of passion, and you won't know how high the world is. Shantora has disappeared for hundreds of years, and even Nolando himself has not been found. You..."

"Whatever!" Luffy didn't listen to Curiket's nagging at all and interrupted him directly.

"I will definitely find it, because I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King, hee hee!"

"Hey! Luffy!" Usopp became anxious as soon as he heard this.

"Where do you get your confidence from? No one knows whether Shantora is real or fake. Don't just swear casually, okay?"

"Shandora is real! Nolando will not lie!" Luffy said firmly.

"I told you not to be so confident," Usopp said angrily.

"It doesn't matter if you want to daydream, but at least you should consider Uncle Curiket's feelings."

"You vowed to look for it, but if you don't find it in the end or give up halfway, what will Uncle Montblanc do?"

Usopp stared at Luffy and said almost word for word: "Don't give people hope first and then let them down, Luffy! Do you know the despair of dashed hope?"

Kuriket took the last puff of her cigarette and said to Luffy: "Straw Hat boy, your long-nosed companion is right. It's not worth swearing for a stranger."

"No one knows whether the legend of Shantora is true or false except Nolando, so don't waste your efforts."

"Hehe! No way." Luffy smiled, "Uncle, haven't you been pursuing that dream too?"

"I heard Nami say that you dive into the depths of the sea every day to look for the ruins of Shantara, and you didn't give up even though you got diving sickness. It's really amazing."

"Boy, this is my fate as a descendant of Nolandu. There is nothing to be proud of." Curiket waved his hand.

"After Shantora disappeared, Nolando explored the cause many times, and the final explanation was that Shantara sank to the bottom of the sea due to an earthquake."

"That city that was once prosperous and magnificent like a paradise may now be lying quietly on the bottom of the sea. This is why I have persisted in diving to the bottom of the sea for so many years."

"So, Shantara is somewhere under the sea, right?"

Nami asked in surprise after hearing Curiket's words. She immediately ordered: "Chopper, jump down, and you must find gold."

"Well...that's weird! Can I jump down?! Idiot!"

"Sorry, sorry, I forgot that you are a landlubber." Nami smiled awkwardly, turned to Sanji and ordered, "Sanji, go find it for me."

"Okay! Miss Nami!" Sanji rushed towards the sea without any hesitation.

"Wait a minute!" Sammy quickly stopped him.

"What are you doing, Sammy? I'm telling you, I won't give it to you, Miss Bonami, this chance to smile!"

"Who wants to argue with you about this!" Sami couldn't help shouting, "I just want to remind you that Shantara is not at the bottom of the sea at all, and there is no use for you to jump down."

"Nonsense! Miss Nami said it is at the bottom of the sea, it is at the bottom of the sea, even if I search the entire sea, I will find him." Sanji said firmly.

Nami walked over silently, and Sanji immediately became excited when he saw her: "I will always believe in you! Miss Nami!"

Unexpectedly, Nami ignored him at all, but said seriously to Sami: "Sammy, you said Shantara is not at the bottom of the sea, are you sure?"

"If you dare to refute me randomly, you know the consequences."

"I know, I'm sure Shantara is not at the bottom of the sea."

Nami's eyes widened, her invisible overlord look shocked the entire audience.

Usopp and Chopper screamed and immediately hugged each other.Even Luffy, who was always very nervous, swallowed his saliva.

"Sammy!" Nami whispered.

"What, what's wrong?" Sami couldn't help but tremble.

"Please! You must tell me where Shantora is, please, please, okay?"

Nami suddenly clasped her hands together, her eyes were full of shiny things, and her body was still twisting and turning.

"Pfft!" x6

……

"When Nolando arrived on Gaya 400 years ago, the island was still intact."

Sammy said as he showed the map provided by Uncle Kuriket.

This map was recorded in Nolando's logbook and has a history of more than 400 years.

Then, Sami showed the current map of Gaya Island and said: "This is the current map of Gaya Island. What did you find?"

Before the others could react, Nami's eyes suddenly lit up: "Oh my God! The current Gaya Island is just a part of the ancient Gaya Island!"

Sami nodded and said: "Yes, the current shape of Gaya Island is like a pair of saw teeth."

"So when cartographers draw it, they always choose to draw it vertically, intentionally or unintentionally making it fit the jagged shape."

"In fact, when you look at this pair of saw teeth sideways, you will find that it is more like the teeth of a skull." Sammy said.

"And the ancient Gaya Island was a lifelike skull pattern."

Sammy said, stacking the two maps together and placing them in the bright firelight.

Everyone immediately discovered that the two maps overlapped perfectly.

"You're amazing! Sammy!" Nami was the first to cheer.

Usopp and Chopper even clapped excitedly.

Luffy laughed and patted Sammy on the shoulder: "It's really you, Sammy. Is there anything you don't know? Hahahaha!"

Everyone looked more or less excited, but Uncle Curiket was indifferent and poured cold water on them.

"I have discovered this secret a long time ago!" Curiket said lightly.

"No, to be precise, Nolando should have discovered it a long time ago!

“He not only speculated that half of Gaya Island disappeared, but also speculated that the missing half sank to the bottom of the sea due to crustal movement!”

"That's why dad insists on diving every day, just to discover the half of the sunken island on the seabed."

The orangutan added, "It's been like this for decades. Dad is so great!"

The orangutan immediately responded: "That's right! Long live daddy!"

"Long live!" Luffy shouted.

Nami patted him: "Why are you joining in the fun!"
