Chapter 83
"Yes, sir!"
Ten minutes later, the warship set sail, quickly chasing in the direction the Fire Pirates had fled.
But they had long since vanished; Karl could only re-analyze their escape route.
"Sir, since they are preparing to head to the Sabaody Archipelago, they must pass through the Florian Triangle; otherwise, a detour would take a very long time."
"So I speculate they are definitely near the Florian Triangle now."
Karl stroked his chin and nodded: "What you say makes a lot of sense. We are heading to the Florian Triangle now!"
The Florian Triangle, the territory of the Warlord of the Sea Gecko Moria. Karl had said he would go there long ago, but after getting Raven, he wasn't in such a hurry.
So when he came to Water 7, he bypassed the Florian Triangle directly. As it turned out, he still had to make a trip there after all.
Karl thought to himself, since that's the case, if he could run into Moria, he might as well take Shusui away! It was a Great Grade sword, after all!
Raven was useful, but it had a drawback: it was a Devil Fruit weapon, and once it got wet, it would be just like a human.
As if its body had been hollowed out, it would become limp and had to be dried in the sun before it could be used again.
Don't ask why Karl knew; if you ask, it's because he had experimented. Regarding this, Raven expressed its extreme frustration!
The Florian Triangle.
Roche Thompson laughed heartily, patting his subordinate on the shoulder: "Hahaha, it's a good thing you were sharp! Otherwise, I really wouldn't have known the Navy was waiting for us at Water 7!"
"The expressions on those Navy soldiers' faces must be hilarious right now, hahaha!"
The surrounding pirates also burst into laughter, mocking the stupidity of the Navy.
"Boss Roche, look quickly, there's something on the sea! Uh, it looks like a barrel!"
"Let me see, what kind of barrel is this?"
A knowledgeable pirate lackey said: "Boss, this should be a wine cask for sacrificing to the Sea God; it's filled with fine wine!"
Roche's eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth to laugh: "Boys, hurry and get it up here. It'll be perfect for celebrating how we toyed with the Navy, what do you think!"
"Good!!!" "Boss is brilliant!"
It didn't take much effort to get the cask up. Roche couldn't wait to tear off the seal and open it.
"Boom!"
"What the hell!"
A red signal flare shot into the sky, dyeing it red. Roche sat on the deck, looking at the sky in a daze, not knowing what had happened.
"What the hell is this! Is that... fireworks?"
"Not good, Boss, this should be a signal flare. Could it be a Navy trap!"
The more Roche thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Hearing this answer, he slapped his thigh: "Damn, I knew it! It must be those cunning Navy soldiers!"
"Boys, keep your eyes peeled for me! If any Navy ships appear, sound the alarm immediately!"
On the other side.
"Sir, look, someone is firing a signal flare ahead!"
Karl smiled and lowered his binoculars, thinking this must be the bait Moria used for fishing. It didn't take much to know the Fire Pirates had taken the bait.
"Full speed ahead in the direction of the signal flare."
"Yes!"
Just a few minutes later, the surrounding sky darkened, as if the heavens were brewing a rainstorm, and the air became incomparably still.
"Sir, something seems a bit off."
Karl glanced at the sky and said: "It doesn't matter, just do your jobs. We are already very close to the Fire Pirates' ship, let's push a bit harder!"
The Fire.
"Boss, this weather is a bit strange! Why do I feel a bit creeped out? The Florian Triangle... there wouldn't really be ghosts, would there!"
Roche swallowed hard and gave his underling a fierce slap.
"Trash, we are pirates! How can we be afraid of ghosts? It should be the ghosts afraid of us!"
"Get yourselves together! Don't scare yourselves; don't forget we still have the Navy on our tails!"
"It's bad, Boss! The, the, the Navy is catching up! Right, right behind us!"
Looking at the warship chasing from behind, the pirates on the Fire became agitated.
