Chapter 143: Not Under the Sea, But in the Sky

"Guess? Help me?"

Kulikai looked at Bai Ye with some confusion, not understanding what the boy in front of him meant by suddenly saying this.

"Yes, Bai Ye, do you know where the gold went?"

Usopp on the side asked subconsciously.

However, he didn't believe that Bai Ye really knew it. After all, this gold was something that the Mont Blanc family had been searching for for 400 years and had not found it. How could Bai Ye know it just by hearing a story?

“Maybe I do know.”

Bai Ye showed a confident smile, which also meant one thing——

[Get out of the way, I’m going to use my foresight to kill myself].

"Hey, kid, are you telling the truth?"

Hearing Bai Ye’s words, Kulikai became excited instantly.

Although he didn't believe that Bai Ye really knew.

But his obsession with gold was so deep that he would never rest in peace until his death.

So after Bai Ye said this, he still couldn't control his emotions.

"At least 9% sure."

Bai Ye nodded and said that although he was 100% sure, he still decided to keep a low profile.

After all, he can't produce any evidence now.

"Stop keeping me in suspense and tell me now, boy."

Seeing that Bai Ye still looked mysterious, Kulikai couldn't help but speak.

"Hahaha, isn't the uncle also impatient?"

Bai Ye teased Kulikai, after all, he was the one who said the same thing to Luffy just now.

"Speaking of which, uncle's house is a bit strange."

Bai Ye suddenly changed the subject and talked about Kulikai's house.

"It seems, only half."

After hearing Bai Ye's words, Kulikai was a little confused, but still nodded.

"Yes, this house only had these parts when I came here. It seems that it was only half built, so I added that wooden board."

Hearing this, Zoro and Sanji looked at each other, feeling a little guilty, which was rare.

After all, they had despised the owner of this house a lot because of this before.

"What if it's not half built?"

At this moment, Bai Ye's voice sounded:

"No matter how you think about it, it doesn't make sense to build half of it. Besides, the middle part of this house is too close to the shore."

“So I thought, maybe this house was originally complete.”

At this moment, Bai Ye's words made everyone present feel that a secret was about to be revealed.

"But due to some special circumstances, the other half of the house and the island left in an instant."

As soon as Bai Ye finished speaking, Kulikai, who had just sat down, jumped up:

"Boy, what do you mean..."

At this time, Kulikai was so excited that he couldn't even speak.

All along, from Nolando to Kulikai, everyone believed that the gold had sunk to the bottom of the sea.

But there is no evidence!

But now, Bai Ye's guess gave him the greatest support.

That is--

"That's right,"

Bai Ye nodded and continued:

“This Gaya Island is not complete.”

As he spoke, Bai Ye also took out the map that Robin had obtained earlier.

He pointed to a point above and said:

"This is where we are. If my guess just now is correct, then in this area..."

Bai Ye put his hands aside and said:

"There must have been another half of the island."

"And there is also such a description in the uncle's logbook."

Bai Ye opened the logbook he had been reading and pointed to a sentence on it and said:

"Gold, in the right eye of the skull."

"Then, Gaya Island should have originally looked like this."

As he spoke, Bai Ye started drawing on the map.

Based on my memory of watching anime in my previous life, I drew the complete Gaya Island.

It was a skull-shaped island, and now only the mouth remains.

After hearing Bai Ye’s analysis, I saw the complete map of Gaya Island.

Kulikai fell silent.

He looked up at Bai Ye, feeling a little emotional.

The gold that his ancestors had not been able to find for 400 years had taken a big step forward in the hands of this kid.

"That's really amazing, kid."

Kulikai couldn't help but sigh.

"Hahahaha, you're right, uncle. You also think Bai Ye is awesome, right!!!"

Luffy, who was standing by, also laughed when he heard this.

"So, the gold sank to the bottom of the sea along with the other half of the island?"

Nami, who was obviously more concerned about the gold, asked.

"Unfortunately, that's probably not the case."

Bai Ye shook his head:

"That's what the uncle said just now. He fished here for so long and only found some small pieces of gold."

"So, the gold should not be on the bottom of the sea."

Then, Bai Ye did not give the others time to question him, and immediately gave the final answer:

"So, could it be that it was washed up into the sky by a huge upwelling current?"

"After all, according to the record pointer, there should be an island above Gaya Island."

Bai Ye looked at Kulikai, recalling the plot of the anime, and sighed in his heart.

Shortly after Nolando left, the island carrying the Golden City and the Shandia people was washed onto the sky island by the huge upwelling current.

However, due to the looting of the indigenous people of Sky Island, the Shandia tribe lost the island.

So until Nolando died with tears on his face, the Lamp of Shandora, which symbolized the friendship between the Shandia people and Nolando, was never rung again.

"Not under the sea, but in the sky?"

Mont Blanc Couliquet, the descendant of Nolando for who knows how many generations, lit the cigarette in his hand with trembling hands.

“Haha..hahaha..hahahaha!”

Kulikai suddenly laughed, and his laughter became louder and louder.

He held his stomach, tears streaming down his face:

"Nolando, you really didn't lie, did you?"

"I lost this game!"

At this moment, a man in his forties was holding a map and crying bitterly.

This bond that spans 400 years seems to have finally reached its final step.

"Straw Hat Boy and White Night Boy."

Kulikai raised his head and looked at the two of them:

"You guys are going to Sky Island, right?"

"So can you do me a favor?"

Kulikai put out his cigarette and spoke slowly:

"Help me ring the golden bell!"

"In return, I can give you all this gold."

Kulikai generously pushed all his gold in front of the few people and spoke in a pleading tone.

"unnecessary."

Luffy grinned after hearing this.

"These golds are more important to you, uncle."

He held down his straw hat, looked at Kulikai, and said with a smile:

"In that case, just take this gold and wait."

"Wait till I ring the golden bell!"

Luffy made his own promise to Kulikai.

At this time, Bai Ye said:

"If you want, we can take you to the Sky Island."

In response, Kulik replied:

"Sky Island, I will definitely go there."

"But I can't go with you. The gorillas and the apes are fans of Nolando, so I will take them with me."

"And you'll need their help when you go to Sky Island, so there's nothing we can do this time."

Bai Ye did not comment on Kulikai's answer.

Next, it’s time to do the final work.
