Chapter 479: Mundo Goes Where He Pleases

"And we must rush into the center at the moment the sea current erupts, a second late and we will be thrown off, leading to the destruction of the ship and death."

"After rushing into the sea current, we also need to cooperate and use the rising airflow generated by geothermal heat to sail,

to maintain altitude, otherwise the ship will fall like a stone."

Cricket, Masira, and Shoujou finalized the details of using the Knock-Up Stream to reach the Cumulonimbus Emperor one by one.

'Amazing.'

Zhang Jie silently evaluated the few people who were chatting enthusiastically.

These few unknown little characters, using their respective stubbornness and professional knowledge,

created a highly feasible plan to use the wonder of the Knock-Up Stream.

If Zhang Jie hadn't come in advance, the Straw Hat crew would have used this plan to successfully land on Sky Island,

becoming another batch of visitors to this sky kingdom after four hundred years.

"Lord Lord Lord Heixing, what do you think?"

Cricket and the others who finished the discussion all placed their gazes on Zhang Jie.

Although Zhang Jie didn't say a word, they didn't dare to underestimate him, whether it was strength or understanding of the Cumulonimbus Emperor.

"The plan of you few is very harmonious, but there is a small problem, and that is that it is extremely dangerous and troublesome."

Zhang Jie gave his evaluation of this plan to use the Knock-Up Stream to reach Sky Island.

Not to mention the troublesome preparations such as ship modification before, just getting on the Knock-Up Stream requires timing,

and later needing to borrow the rising airflow, etc., as long as there is a problem with one detail,

it is either the whole ship being washed into meat paste by the Knock-Up Stream directly,

or falling from the sky in mid-air, experiencing the excitement of high-altitude skydiving without a parachute,

with a 99.9% chance of hitting GG without flying ability.

Hmm, the exception here is Teacher Kaido, who once pursued excitement,

and played pure physical, unprotected free-fall from ten thousand meters high.

It's not that other pirate crews didn't want to borrow the Knock-Up Stream to go to Sky Island after the Straw Hat crew,

to "develop" and "explore" this ownerless land, but among them, except for a few lucky ones,

the vast majority were buried in it, becoming negative teaching materials.

Actually, judging from the information Zhang Jie knows, the Straw Hat crew could successfully land on Sky Island,

and the high-level luck halo unique to the protagonist group didn't exert little force.

"Sigh."

Cricket sighed long, and smiled bitterly:

"How could we not know that this plan has huge risks?

It's just that this is our only plan to go to the Cumulonimbus Emperor,

to find Shandora, no matter what, we won't give up!"

Masira and Shoujou looked at each other with Cricket, and saw the determination to die without regret in each other's eyes.

Zhang Jie smiled suddenly: "Didn't you say it was just your method, isn't there me?"

"Right!"

Cricket and the others heard this and their eyes lit up instantly.

Zhang Jie is a top powerhouse on the sea who can share the same level as Big Mom Charlotte Linlin and Kaido of the Beasts.

And Kaido of the Beasts is known as the "strongest creature on sea, land, and air," obviously having flying ability.

Then even if Zhang Jie can't fly, he probably doesn't lack the ability to borrow force in the air using physical arts like Moon Walk like the Navy Admirals.

As for where Cricket and the others got the information about the Navy Admirals?

As the highest combat power of the Navy to deter pirates, for the abilities of the Admirals,

as long as it doesn't involve killer moves, weaknesses, etc., whether it's the Navy

or the World Government, they wish they could tell everyone on the sea.

Even after leaving the territory of Totto Land for not long,

and spending some time in the Calm Belt where News Coos don't visit often,

Zhang Jie had already collected a dozen newspapers boasting about the three Navy Admirals like Kuzan;

either today Admiral Kizaru rescued a country invaded by pirates;

or tomorrow Admiral Akainu, who hates evil like a foe, led a team to capture a heinous big pirate,

removing another tumor for the people of the sea; Kuzan successfully persuaded him to join the World Government,

becoming one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea was also written about extensively, although it didn't point it out,

but it was all implying that he was convinced by Admiral Kuzan's strength.

That nauseating level of flattery made Zhang Jie seriously suspect that the big news Morgans had received benefits from the Navy,

or had been held by the Navy, and had to obey.

"Lord Lord Lord Heixing, please go to the Cumulonimbus Emperor, find the golden land, and ring the golden bell,

let everyone know that the golden land of Shandora is real!"

Cricket stood up and bowed deeply to Zhang Jie.

The bow was so deep that his head almost touched the floor.

"Mr. Norland is not a liar, not a fraud! Please, Lord Lord Lord Heixing!"

Shoujou and Masira also bowed like Cricket.

"You three get up first."

Zhang Jie raised his right hand, and the True Essence turned into an invisible big hand and helped the three people who were bowing up.

The instinct of Cricket and the others was to resist,

but they had no power to resist in front of this force, and were easily helped up.

'Is this the strength of the top powerhouse on the sea?'

Cricket and the others were all shocked in their hearts:

This force could help them up without any resistance, and naturally could easily twist their necks!

Feeling this power that could easily crush them to death,

Cricket and the others finally understood the gold content of the six words "top powerhouse on the sea."

They were simply like two different species from ordinary people like them.

However, what made them breathe a sigh of relief was that Zhang Jie obviously had no malice towards them.

At the same time, the confidence in finding the golden land rose by another three points:

With such a powerhouse taking action, as long as they didn't fail to find the destination, they wouldn't return empty-handed.

"Mr. Cricket, don't you want to go to Shandora yourself and ring the golden bell yourself?"

After Cricket and the others settled their mood, Zhang Jie asked.

"Want, of course I want!"

Cricket gave the answer without any hesitation.

He dreamed of going to the golden land of Shandora himself, ringing the legendary golden bell that symbolized Shandora,

and washing away the shame that had lasted for a full four hundred years on the Mont Blanc family and ancestor Norland.

"Lord Lord Lord Heixing, do you have a way to take us to the Cumulonimbus Emperor without going through the Knock-Up Stream?"

Masira heard the implication of Zhang Jie's words and asked happily.

"Of course."

Zhang Jie nodded.

The reason why he didn't go directly to Sky Island, but specifically made a trip to Gaya Island, was to find Cricket and the others.

When watching the anime, he felt a little regret that Cricket didn't ring the golden bell himself.

Although the Straw Hat crew finally rang the golden bell,

obviously the meaning of the golden bell to them was different from its meaning to Cricket and the others.

For Wang Lufei and the others, ringing the golden bell was just a part of their adventure,

although interesting, they were ultimately passers-by; but for Cricket, it was a lifetime of persistence and watching.

For this man who had pursued his dream for a lifetime, he didn't mind helping him if he had the ability.

As for helping Cricket seeming to have no benefits?

Isn't the meaning of strength to realize one's own ideas?

It's hard to cross over once, and if everything is calculated for interests and benefits,

it's too pathetic, he just wants to go where Mundo wants to go now. ===== CHAPTER 480 =====
