Sailing: This Bounce-Bounce Fruit is a little different.

The ship slowly shifted to the left, moving further and further away from the five people who had called for help.

"Holy crap, how can it be turned upside down like this?"

Seeing this, Huang Hai's forehead creased with anger. He pushed off with his feet and shot forward, landing in an arc beside Zoro. Just as he grabbed the helm and prepared to turn right...

Whoosh!

With a gaping maw bursting out of the sea, a bizarre sea beast, tens of meters long and resembling an elongated sea serpent, fiercely pounced on the five people struggling in the water.

Ahh ...

Chapter Thirty-Five: The Navigator of the Future?

ahhh-

Help! ! !

Faced with the sea monster's gaping maw, the screams suddenly became shrill.

In the face of life-or-death crisis, the five people in the sea seemed to unleash their full potential, desperately swimming towards the direction of Huang Hai and the others' ship.

Ah!

However, trying to outswim sea monsters is clearly a pipe dream.

It doesn't take a while.

The last two were swallowed by the sea monster amidst screams.

Then came the third and the fourth person.

Until the fifth person looked desperate and closed his eyes to await death.

Bang! Search

A deafening explosion suddenly rang out.

Behind the fifth person, a sea monster with its gaping maw suddenly had its monstrous head explode.

Large amounts of scarlet blood spread across the surface of the sea.

What happened? 4

Shabu, who had been awaiting death, stared blankly at the scene before him.

Thirty meters away. 4

To Zoro's surprise, Huang Hai slowly withdrew his right fist, his face turning slightly pale.

"This distance is still too physically demanding..." 4

Despite continuous adjustments and refinements to the [Pressure Cannon], maintaining a ripple frequency of approximately 70 beats per second is necessary to fire it more than 8 meters away.

Only at this frequency can a high degree of compression, condensation, and three-dimensional form be maintained over long distances. 5

"The power was somewhat unexpected..."

Zoro, wielding the Wado Ichimonji, exclaimed in amazement, "When I watched you train before, I thought it was just a lot of noise, but I never imagined it would have such power when focused on a target!"

"Given its size, this sea monster is almost comparable to a small-sized Sea King, isn't it?"

"At most, he's the king of the near seas..." 7

Shaking his head, Huang Hai stood on the edge of the boat, looking down at the bewildered man in the sea, and casually said, "Zoro, throw him a rope ladder, rescue him and see what's going on..."

"understand!"

Not long after.

The guy, looking terrified and wearing a black skull bandana, was pulled up by Zoro along with the rope ladder.

"Thank you so much! You two saved my life..."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Shabu recalled the sea monster whose head had just been blown off and couldn't help but swallow hard. He said, "My name is Shabu, and I'm one of Bucky the Clown's henchmen!"

“Paki…”

Upon hearing this, Huang Hai raised an eyebrow and asked with interest, "So, Bucky is somewhere nearby?"

"You know him?"

Seeing this, Zoro asked in confusion, "When I was a pirate hunter, I heard that this guy didn't have a good reputation..."

"I don't know him personally, I've only heard of his name."

Huang Hai smiled and waved his hand jokingly, "Don't underestimate this guy. His luck stat is many times higher than ours, those unlucky folks."

However, the fact that this guy was in this sea area was quite unexpected for him.

Therefore, it seems that the holder of the [Nika Fruit] might have deviated from the growth path of the East Blue, and perhaps started from other seas, or even directly from the Grand Line...

Nami, Sanji, and the others should still be in the East Blue, just like Zoro.

Well……

Don't be too confident; if your analysis and predictions are wrong, it will be a huge embarrassment.

"Hey! You idiot, aren't you?"

Zoro frowned and said, "Since you are one of the pirates, why did you fall into the sea? And why is there not a single ship around?"

"Um... my name is Shabu!"

Feeling offended, Shabu swallowed hard, his expression cautious, but then, as if remembering something, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's all because of that woman!"

"woman?"

"That's right! That woman is the one who ruined us!"

Shabu's eyes widened, and after scratching his head, he suddenly blushed and said, "Although he's also very cute..."

"If we hadn't been bewitched by her, we wouldn't have had all our looted treasure stolen, and we wouldn't have even lost our ship to her..."

At this point, she gritted her teeth and recounted in detail how she had been deceived by the other party.

For example, how the other party misled them...

Or something like getting advance weather forecasts...

"That's what it is!"

After saying that, Shabu looked miserable and said, "Isn't that going too far!"

"When we see Captain Buggy, he will definitely avenge us!"

"They can actually predict the weather?"

Upon hearing this, Zoro looked at the other person in surprise, then turned back to look at Huang Hai.

"Judging from this, that woman must have amazing nautical knowledge. I wonder if we could recruit her as a navigator..."

The more I listen, the more it sounds like Nami...

Huang Hai glanced at Shabu and asked, "Is the woman you're talking about the one with orange hair, dark brown eyes, and a pretty sexy figure?"

"That's right! That's right! It's her!"

Shabu nodded quickly, his eyes filled with anticipation, and asked, "Do you know her?"

"I wonder if I could get her to return some of the treasure..."

She's cute at best, but how can someone with such a thin figure be considered sexy?

However, if they return empty-handed, Captain Bucky will surely punish them.

We need to think of a way...

"do not know!"

Shrugging, Huang Hai said with a smile, "However, as the future navigator I've chosen, it is indeed necessary to meet him..."

In the original story, Luffy and Nami met in Buggy's territory.

Although I don't know if the world will be like this, it's still necessary to go there.

Even if I can't see Nami, I can at least see Buggy.

While we're at it, let's see if we can acquire any interesting talents...

Thinking of this, Huang Hai flicked his fingers, and the air exploded like a firecracker. He looked at Shabu, who looked somewhat frightened, and said with a smile:

“Shab! Since you’re one of Bucky the Clown’s henchmen, you should know exactly where he is right now…”
