Time Travel: Age of Discovery

Behind the huge rock, the captain brushed away the rotten branches and leaves piled on the ground, and an iron chain suddenly appeared.

At this moment, a smile appeared on the captain's lips.

It seems that no one has touched my collection yet, and that guy has not yet discovered the secret here. It is really a blessing from heaven.

He shook his wrist, and a square stone slab was lifted up, revealing a deep passage underneath. No one knew where it led to, but from its shape, it looked like a secret room.

After looking around, the captain slowly walked in and closed the stone slab.

At this moment, in the waters surrounding this deserted island, a mighty warship is quietly anchored on the sea.

There was a small boat accompanying it on the side, with Lieutenant General Teya and Captain Tina sitting in it.

"Lieutenant General Teya, Captain Tina, please take care of yourself!"

The naval soldiers on the ship saluted and their eyes followed Teya and Tina on the boat.

Tina waved gently to the soldiers on the boat, then she and Teya each took a paddle and slowly rowed towards the distance.

The two rowed silently all the way without saying a word until the warship gradually disappeared into the distance.

"Teacher Toya, does Smoker know that you want to find a devil fruit for him?"

Teya glanced at Tina beside him and smiled calmly: "I have already told him about this. After he comprehends the art of dominance, I will find him a devil fruit. I think he must be honing his skills at this moment."

After hearing this, Tina couldn't help but chuckle, but then worry showed in her eyes.

I thought to myself: Although Thea is indeed fighting against pirates, the spoils obtained should belong to the navy. Can he really take some of them away without being noticed?

But on second thought, Teya has a special status in the navy, and even Marshal Kong treats him differently. Perhaps this move has already been tacitly approved by Marshal Kong.

"It is definitely here."

Teya's whisper interrupted Tina's thoughts, and an island suddenly appeared in sight, which was undoubtedly their destination.

"Teacher Teya, is it appropriate to take the spoils without permission?"

Finally, Tina couldn't suppress her doubts and asked. Teya smiled and answered without hesitation:

"It has not yet become a trophy, as for the future..."

"We only take what we need."

The strong wind made it difficult for Tina to open her eyes.

Looking up at the rolling clouds beside her, she knew that the place she was in was already unfathomable.

At this moment, Tina was lying on Thea's back, feeling a little panicked. It was the first time in her life that she experienced flying in the air, and it was thrilling even with Thea by her side.

However, what surprised her even more was that Teya's Moon Steps could allow him to walk freely in the air at an extremely fast speed.

When they were confirming the location of the island, they had already discovered two pirate ships anchored on the coast, and thus concluded that this was the place marked in the map.

There are many reefs scattered in the waters around the island. Teya carefully docked the boat behind a hidden reef before proposing this plan. After all, rushing straight ashore would be too risky.

They had no idea what the pirates were up to, so they decided to stay out of the way.

More importantly, Thea did not find any trace of the pirate captain named "Teapot", but only found a scarred deputy captain sleeping soundly on the ground.

After explaining the plan to Tina, Teya took her and quietly bypassed the pirates' sight, rowed away for a distance, then performed the Moon Step to fly to the top of the island, and then slowly landed.

As the distance gets closer, the entire island becomes clearly visible.

The only suitable landing area occupied by the pirates is covered with rubble. The central area of the island appears to have once been a forest, but it has now withered away for unknown reasons.

The rest of the area is mountainous, and the whole island gives people a lifeless feeling. No wonder it is called an uninhabited island. It has almost become a birdless place.

It is unexpected that the treasure is hidden in such a place, but it is also reasonable. After all, this place is rarely visited and the geographical location is quite awkward.

If you want to go to any of the surrounding islands, it will be countless times better than this place.

Thea landed lightly at the bottom of a slope, and Tina jumped down immediately, letting out a long sigh.

Teya looked at Tina with a smile, and the latter stuck out her tongue and responded playfully.

"Hey, this is my first time trying high-altitude flying."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tina immediately regained her alert posture, carefully observing the surrounding environment, and finally pointed to the depths of the forest.

"Teacher Teya, we've found some traces. I'm afraid the man has gone deep into the forest."

Teya nodded, reminded Tina to follow closely, and then stepped into the jungle first.

Since setting foot on this island, Teya seemed to be in the situation of playing horror adventure games alone in the past - both exciting and full of expectations. However, with Tina by his side, he did not feel too much fear, and was more concerned about how to ensure Tina's safety.

Moving forward cautiously step by step, Teya released his Observation Haki to sense the surrounding environment and make sure that there was no one else there.

It's strange. Apart from the pirates, no one else seems to be visible. Could it be that the "teapot" has already quietly left?

With this doubt in mind, Teya and Tina finally passed through the jungle and came to a relatively open area at the foot of the mountain.

This place appears to have been a quarry, with stones of various sizes scattered everywhere.

"It seems that these stones all rolled down from the mountain."

Teya muttered to himself, looking up at the scene on the top of the mountain, and confirmed his speculation.

However, as he continued forward, he was blocked by a pile of rubble and immediately realized that the situation was not that simple.

“There’s no way forward.”

Thea gestured to Tina in mid-air, then landed on the ground and fell into deep thought.

"Teacher Teya, could it be that this person has already left, or is this just a feint?"

Despite Tina's speculation, Thea did not respond. He had indeed considered this possibility, but since the remaining pirates were all here, how could the pirate captain be absent?

After a while, Teya suddenly realized something and suggested to Tina that she look for a cave or other hidden entrance here.

The treasure will never be shown to others easily. It must be hidden in a box underground. However, there are no signs of excavation here. It can only be hidden in a place that is not easy to detect.

So, Thea and Tina acted separately, but always kept within each other's sight.

At this moment, Tina carefully searched for clues around her and couldn't help but frown.

She had heard that some hidden places had secret doors, but since they were called secret doors, they were naturally difficult to find...
