Chapter 50
In fact,
the reason it had such a massive size,
was in large part,
because Enel had made the interior space too large!
This wasn't a cockpit,
this was clearly a golden palace!
That golden color,
seemed to be telling of the simple and unadorned life of the rich.
If there was one drawback to this ship,
it would probably be that it could only be driven by lightning!
Because of this,
normally,
except for Enel,
no one could drive this ship!
However,
Li Xiao was an exception!
For Li Xiao, who possessed the divine ability to Drive Thunder and Control Lightning,
driving this ship was not a difficult task!
Li Xiao fumbled around inside the ship for a while,
and soon mastered the method of driving it.
As Li Xiao injected lightning into it,
the Ark Maxim was restarted,
and under Li Xiao’s control,
it headed toward the cave where it had been hiding before!
Li Xiao couldn't stay on the ship forever,
and once Li Xiao left,
if the ship lost power,
it would likely fall from the sky!
Therefore,
Li Xiao planned to park it back in the cave first.
However,
when Li Xiao drove the ship to lower its altitude,
wanting to return to the cave,
he discovered an awkward thing!
The entrance to this cave was not large,
it was easy to get out,
but difficult to get in!
If Enel were here,
perhaps he could have driven this ship back into the cave!
However,
Li Xiao was just a novice driver,
he hadn't even warmed his seat in the cockpit yet!
Therefore,
um...
in terms of driving skills,
he was lacking just a tiny bit!
Li Xiao tried for a long time,
but it was just stuck,
and it was always just a little bit off from getting in!
A moment later,
Li Xiao finally exhausted all his patience,
walked directly out of the ship,
came to the cave entrance with his sword,
raised his hand and swung a sword,
directly expanding the entrance by one-third!
Subsequently,
Li Xiao returned to the cockpit,
and easily drove the ship into the cave!
Hey,
this time,
this is called: if your ship skills aren't enough, make up for it with sword skills!
After parking the Ark Maxim back in the cave,
Li Xiao walked out from inside it,
he looked up at this huge ship,
and couldn't help but fall into deep thought!
In fact,
as early as when he was still in Foosha Village,
Li Xiao had already set his sights on this Ark Maxim!
The reason was simple,
in this pirate world,
every trip required a boat,
and Li Xiao just happened not to know how to sail!
Since Li Xiao traveled to the pirate world,
every time he went to sea,
he either robbed a ship or hitched a ride,
and he even had to rob a navigator along the way!
On that first deserted island,
Li Xiao waited for a month,
and finally robbed a pirate ship from an unknown pirate crew,
and headed to Cocoyasi Village under Nami’s navigation!
And when in Cocoyasi Village,
Li Xiao robbed the Arlong Pirates’ ship to head to the Marine G-16 Branch base!
At the Marine G-16 Branch base,
Li Xiao hitched a ride on Garp’s warship to Foosha Village!
When leaving Foosha Village,
he robbed a ship, but because no one knew how to sail it,
it caused Li Xiao to be so furious that he flew on his sword at sea for several hours,
and finally arrived at the sea restaurant Baratie!
Afterward, he hitched a ride on Mihawk’s coffin boat to Loguetown,
and tricked... borrowed a small sailboat from the Marines to head to Alabasta,
and spent money to take a merchant ship to arrive at Jaya...
You don't count, you don't know,
once you count, you get a shock!
Counting Li Xiao’s experiences along the way,
it was truly bumpy,
he was almost becoming a professional hitchhiker!
In order to have a good travel experience,
Li Xiao had set his sights on this Ark Maxim early on!
First, the Ark Maxim had powerful functions,
not only could it run on the sea,
but it could also fly in the sky!
Second, the Ark Maxim was simple to operate,
how did that saying go—the Ark is great, it runs as long as it has electricity!
Actually,
before arriving at the Sky Island,
Li Xiao didn't expect that he would be able to obtain the divine ability to Drive Thunder and Control Lightning by checking in!
In his original plan,
he intended to modify the Ark Maxim to a certain extent,
so that he could drive it easily.
However, now,
since Li Xiao already had the divine ability to Drive Thunder and Control Lightning,
driving the Ark Maxim was naturally no longer a problem!
But,
Li Xiao still intended to modify it!
First,
in Li Xiao’s view,
the Ark Maxim was still too crude,
its functions were too few,
and both its combat capability and riding experience needed to be strengthened!
Second,
it was really too ugly,
and didn't fit Li Xiao’s aesthetics!
By comparison,
the latter was the main reason!
In short,
Li Xiao made up his mind to remodel the Ark Maxim!
But the problem now was,
he didn't yet have the ability to modify this flying ship!
Since he decided to modify it,
then of course he wanted to do it right in one go!
Li Xiao prepared to directly transform this ship into a true Immortal Sect warship!
In that case,
his attainments in arrays would be indispensable!
And Li Xiao’s current involvement in side-door paths,
apart from a book called "Detailed Explanation of Basic Talismans",
he had nothing!
After considering it for a while,
Li Xiao decided to temporarily leave the Ark Maxim here,
and wait until he had the ability in the future to return and give it a proper modification!
The reason for doing this,
had a main reason,
and that was that Li Xiao now had the ability to Ride Clouds and Mist,
so his need for it was no longer so urgent!
And precisely because of the appearance of Riding Clouds and Mist,
the positioning of the Ark Maxim in the future,
would be more inclined toward group travel!
In summary,
the two divine abilities obtained from checking in at the Sky Island,
disrupted many of Li Xiao’s plans,
but in the end, they still played a better role!
That said,
leaving the Ark Maxim here,
there was still one problem that needed to be solved.
With Enel’s death,
next,
Upper Yard would likely no longer be a forbidden area,
and both the Angel tribe and the Shandian tribe of the Sky Island might come here,
and if the Ark Maxim was left here,
it might just get destroyed!
After thinking for a moment,
Li Xiao set his target on the Lord of the Sky in the forest!
Li Xiao turned and left the cave,
with a thought,
he rose by Riding Clouds and Mist,
and went to find the Lord of the Sky that he had beaten up earlier!
Li Xiao searched according to the previous location,
and before long, he found that familiar figure,
seeing it lying motionless on the ground,
looking listless!
However,
when it saw Li Xiao’s figure,
it was immediately scared into a jolt,
and turned around to run into the depths of the forest!
"Hmm? Why are you running? Are you not satisfied with my stomach-pumping service? If you're not satisfied, I can provide it again for free!"
Hearing this,
the massive body of the Lord of the Sky stiffened instantly,
and it turned its head with a mournful face and shook it frantically at Li Xiao,
as if it were desperately trying to express—I'm not running, I'm very satisfied, don't come again!
