One Piece: The Discreet Barrett

Chapter 98 Heavenly Blade Mantis
Under the hazy moonlight, the fog trees on the island began to spray a faint mist from their roots.

In the eyes of everyone, the island was once again shrouded in fog.

Calculating the time, the fog will dissipate around noon, and night will rise.

Counting the time, Barrett murmured, "Is it only half a day?"

"Wow wow wow..."

The sea breeze blows, the waves beat on the shore, and in conjunction with the misty island, a gloomy atmosphere surrounds everyone.

Gabriel shrank her neck and pulled Qiqin's clothes and whispered: "Sister Qiqin, Gabriel wants to sleep."

Qiqin smiled and said, "Okay! Captain, I will take Gabrielle to rest first."

Barrett nodded and smiled, "Okay, I must be tired after playing for a long time, let's go to rest earlier."

"Good night, Captain Barrett!"

"Goodnight, everyone!"

The rest of the people watched Qiqin and her two enter the cabin, and then turned to Barrett.

Barrett narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Do you all feel it?"

Cha Teng looked at the burning stove in front of him and said in a low voice, "Well, the feeling of being spied on is very uncomfortable."

"Crack..."

Kagura Yongying slowly pulled out the long knife beside her and wiped it.

Barrett looked at Kagura Yongying and said in a deep voice, "Yongying, don't startle the snake."

Kagura Yongying nodded and continued to wipe her saber carefully.

At the same time, Barrett suddenly remembered something and his expression became more dignified. Those vines were not destroyed by his "magic" arrogance, but by something else - the armed arrogance.

A monster that is domineering and as powerful as itself is a bit tricky.

But what scares Barrett the most is the other party's ability to speak in people's minds. Even if it's not a devil fruit ability, it's a powerful spiritual ability.

After a pause, Barrett raised his head and said in a deep voice, "It looks like he's gone."

The dignified expressions of everyone relaxed a little.

Lake roared twice and shook the wolf's head. Barrett was taken aback when he saw this, and said, "Lake, you want to say that the creature just now is very strange?"

Lake nodded the wolf's head, stretched out the wolf's claws and shot out an arc to form several patterns.

Barrett looked down at the patterns in front of him and said in a daze, "What are these? Animal patterns? Wolves...?"

Cha Teng rubbed his chin and pointed at a pattern, and said in a daze, "Is this a praying mantis? And is this a horse or a donkey walking upright?!"

Zhu Yan pointed at an orangutan pattern and said with a silly smile, "This is an orangutan!"

Shark Star also pointed at a pattern and said in a daze, "Is this a shark?"

Barrett looked at Lake and said in a deep voice, "Lake, are you saying that so many animals were watching us just now?"

Lake nodded the wolf's head and growled a few times. Barrett's eyes flashed a cold light. Were there so many animals just now?There is only a strange breath in his perception.

Immediately afterwards, Barrett was taken aback when he thought of something: "Although the breath is on the other side of the island, it is underwater!"

"Gollum..."

What Barrett and the others didn't know was that a Nagasaki hammer shark was dormant like a stone in the sea directly under the Heinous Wolf.

Barrett looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Go and rest first, I'll watch the night tonight."

Zhu Yan shook his head and said, "Captain, you have to go to the island with Mr. Yongying tomorrow and need to rest well, why don't I come."

Cha Teng replied from the side: "Yes, Captain, and I have set up an alarm system on the Evil Wolf. If those monsters come to sneak attack, everyone can react quickly."

Sha Xing nodded at the side and said: "Master Barrett, let me accompany Big Brother Zhuyan during the night watch. I think this is also a kind of cultivation."

Barrett looked at the people who insisted and smiled helplessly: "Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient, and I will trouble Sha Xing and Zhu Yan tonight!"

Barrett explained a few more words before returning to the cabin with the rest to rest.

After a night of nothing, Barrett woke up the next day when Sha Xing and Zhu Yan were fishing by the fence.

Zhu Yan was surprised when he saw Barrett: "Did the captain wake up so early?"

Barrett stared blankly at the gray sky and the island surrounded by mist and said, "Have they not gotten up yet?"

Zhu Yan shook his head and said, "No, I feel that everyone slept soundly last night."

Barrett scratched his head and smiled, "Yeah, for some reason I slept extra comfortably last night."

"crunch..."

The hatch was opened, Kagura Yongying came out, and said in a deep voice after seeing Barrett: "Barrett, something on the island has affected everyone."

Barrett narrowed his eyes and asked, "What?"

Kagura Yongying shook her head and said in a deep voice: "I don't know, but everyone's ability to sleep so deeply is indeed related to that thing on the island. I was affected when I was meditating last night."

As for why Barrett is fine, he just kept his physique from being affected.

Barrett frowned and looked at Zhu Yan and the two and said in a deep voice, "Zhu Yan, Sha Xing, did anything happen last night?"

Zhu Yan scratched his head and smiled foolishly: "Nothing special happened last night. If anything, the island suddenly erupted in the middle of the night with many green crystal light spots, which is very beautiful!"

Barrett was shocked when he heard this and said in a deep voice, "Did you touch those light spots?"

Zhu Yan and Sha Xing stared at each other for a moment, Sha Xing stepped forward and nodded, "Master Barrett, Brother Zhu Yan and I have touched each other, but it didn't have any effect."

Barrett sighed and said in a deep voice, "Go to the cabin and have a look."

Everyone first came to the control room of Chavine. Barrett looked at Zhengxiang's Chavine sleeping on the bed and shouted: "Chavine! Wake up!"

Barrett had no choice but to push the tea vine again, but there was still no response.

"Explore!"

Zhuo Jie D Cha Teng (Status: Hypnotized.)
Barrett shook his head at everyone and said in a deep voice, "No, I can't wake you up."

Kagura Yongying sighed and said: "If this is the case, other people should be the same. It seems that we need to find out the owner of the green light spot."

Barret nodded and said in a deep voice, "It's not too late. We will land on the island when the fog subsides at noon. Zhu Yan and Sha Xing must keep an eye on everyone!"

"Yes, Master Barrett (Captain)!"

After Barrett and Kagura Yongying added some food, they finally waited until noon, and the fog on the island gradually receded.

The two of Barrett jumped onto the island without too much nonsense.

The two looked at each other and nodded, preparing to go to the center of the island along the Tongtian Road opened yesterday.

After running for two steps, the two stopped instantly. Barrett stared at the foggy trees in front of him and said in a daze, "How could that be?! The place was cleared up yesterday!"

Kagura Yongying shook her head and said: "I don't know! Now I can only bite the bullet and move on!"

Barret nodded and said, "Okay!"

In the huge forest, as the two of them deepened, the sunlight became more and more sparse, and the surrounding environment became darker and darker.

Barrett looked at the trees around him that were no longer fog trees and said in a daze, "What kind of tree is this?!"

"careful!"

"ceng!"

Two long and narrow slashing waves slashed in front of the two of them.

Barrett exclaimed in shock, "Who?!"

"A! A! A!"

A giant praying mantis with a height of six meters and a snow-white body stood impressively on the tree trunk in front of the two of them.

But what shocked Barrett the most was the domineering armor covered on the snow-white double blades. He said in a daze, "Mantis, can you still be domineering?!"

"Armor!"

Before Barrett could finish his admiration, a big snow-white praying mantis swung its double blades and descended from the sky!

Kagura Yongying drew out her double swords and went up to meet them.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

For a while, the two sides fought evenly.

"Explore!"

Skyblade Mantis
Strength: lieutenant general

Abilities: Great swordsman, high-level armed domineering.

Special Ability: Mimic.

Barrett looked at the panel in front of him in shock and said, "Is the strength of a praying mantis so perverted?!"

At the same time, Kagura Yongying, who was fighting the mantis, also found something wrong. The mantis' swordsmanship became more and more like her own.

"Oh!"

Kagura Yongying slashed open the praying mantis and said in a low voice, "Ruan Shen!"

In the next second, something that shocked Kagura Yongying and Barrett happened.

I saw Mantis imitating Kagura Yongying wielding his double blades and also resorting to Chaos God.

The white knife light and the black knife light kept colliding together, creating violent aftermath.

Barrett, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, was about to help Kagura Yongying when he felt a strong wind suddenly blowing from behind.

"Oh!"

Barrett dodged the violent blow and stared at the figure in the smoke for a moment.
