As the sun sets, the red glow flutters in the sky, and the red sun begins to set slowly.

There are few human tracks on the vast and boundless sea, and there is not a single pirate group within a radius of more than ten kilometers, only the sound of wind and waves.

Just then, a group of pirates came from a distance, and the pirate flag flying high was a skeletal mantis.

The Mantis Pirates, the captain of the ship, Mantis Man Ssuke, has a bounty of 206 million, and is an animal mantis capable person, who is well-known in the New World.

At this moment, the praying mantis pirates are holding a banquet to welcome the sunset, and the laughter is so lively.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound rang out beside him, causing Sthuk and the other pirates to frown.

Holding a leg of meat in his left hand and a flask in his right, Ssuke looked to either side and found nothing, the sea sparkling and empty.

But the roar was clearly not the sound of the wind.

"Ship .. Boat.. Captain. ”

Suddenly, a pirate looked at the railing on the left, stiff and terrified.

More and more pirates were dumbfounded, and a cool breath rushed directly from the soles of their feet to the Heavenly Spirit Cover.

Ssuke came back to his senses, and his pupils shrank.

On the surface of the sea, there was nothing, and without warning, a huge hideous skeleton appeared, and a sacred giant sword pierced through the sides of the skeleton, stretching its black wings.

Then the hull slowly began to appear, and it appeared in the eyes of all the pirates of the Mantis Pirates like a ghost ship.

This ghost ship was huge, two or three times the size of the Mantis Pirates, and it shrouded the Mantis Pirates like a shadow.

Weird and terrifying, this pirate group seems to have come out of hell and appears without warning.

Obviously there is nothing on the surface of the sea.

The entire praying mantis pirate group was so frightened that they didn't dare to make a sound, some of the pirates covered their mouths and turned pale, and some of the pirates' heartbeats stopped.

"Quiet..."

"Ghosts... Boat.. Boat..."

"Don't speak."

Some pirates with excellent psychological quality covered the mouths of those timid pirates, and kept swallowing saliva and gasping for air.

"On.. Topmost. ”

A pirate pointed at the ghost ship's railing, and a shadow appeared at some point, and in the blink of an eye, the entire mantis pirate group almost jumped.

What did they see?

A smiling devil, his eyes the size of a ping-pong ball, as if trying to break free of his sockets, and at the same time rows of fangs hung upside down in the bloody mouth, shining in the cold light of the setting sun.

"A. . . Two..."

Many pirates were holding their weapons and couldn't stop their fear.

No one dares to act rashly.

Luckily, the ghost ship quickly passed them by.

When the ghost ship was completely gone, all the pirates breathed a sigh of relief.

"I died so miserably, go to hell to accompany me."

Just as all the pirates were slackening, a high-pitched and terrifying voice rang out across the deck.

One word startled a thousand waves, and the entire mantis pirate group jumped up.

"Ahh Hell! ”

"Help."

Chickens fly and dogs jump, all pirates blow up.

There are pirates with their legs swinging, holding long knives and their faces pale.

Cold sweat also began to fill Ssuke's forehead, even if he offered a reward of 206 million, he was also terrified in the face of this situation.

After all, I didn't find anything.

But that terrifying and eerie voice did ring in his ears, and he was not the only one who heard it.

All the pirates huddled together, as if that was the only way to feel safe.

Half an hour.

an hour.

The tense nerves of the entire mantis pirate group were completely relaxed.

"It's really a ghost ship, the legend is true."

"Did you see just now, there are devils on that ghost ship."

"I saw it, and it almost scared the hell out of me."

"My legs are still a little bit of a snag."

"Luckily, the ghost ship passed by us."

Some pirates wiped their weapons in a cold sweat and trembled as they put their weapons away.

"Ship .. Captain, all our treasures are gone. ”

Just then, a pirate crawled out of the cabin, his crotch already wet.

Judging by the distorted face, it was obvious that he had fainted.

"What?"

Ssuke took the pirates to the treasure vault, and found that it was clean and lacked even mouse hair, as if he had licked it with his mouth, and I wonder if it was an illusion that it was still shiny.

"What's going on?"

Ssuke grimaced.

"I... It's a ghost, it's a ghost. “

The crotch of the pirate was terrified, and his words trembled incoherently, "There was a voice in the treasure vault before, but when I opened the door, I saw that all the treasure was gone, and the air was still talking. ”

"It must be a ghost."

"It's the ghosts who steal our treasure."

This day was a nightmare for the entire Mantis Pirates.

At the same time, the Divine Descent, which was considered a ghost ship by the Mantis Pirates, is currently sailing at sea.

That's right, the ghost ship is the Divine Descent, but Napoleon is transparent.

It was Donald Duck, Zeus and Napoleon who stole all the treasures of the Mantis Pirates, and Zeus lowered his voice to scare all the pirates.

On the deck of the Divine Descent, the ground was full of gold, silver and jewels, and Donald Duck, Zeus, and Napoleon were rolling back and forth on it laughing.

When they think of those frightened pirates, they can't help it.

Foxy sat in his chair and looked at the treasure, but did not stop the three bastards from playing.

Since then, however, panic and rumors have begun to appear in the New World.

Many pirates of all sizes have reported encountering ghost ships and their treasures have been looted.

As a result, some pirates are now panicking, and they are afraid of encountering ghost ships again.

And the more it spreads, the more mysterious it becomes, saying that the ghost ship also eats people and drags many pirates into hell.

And the culprit of all this is just a duck, a cloud, a hat.

However, in a small area, it is said that the ghost ship is suspected to be the Emperor Pirates, but not many people believe it.

In short, there are many opinions on the sea now.

Two days later, a news bird landed on the rails of the Divine Descent.

Shylock pulled out a thousand Baileys and stuffed them into the backpack around the News Bird's neck, then took two rolls of the Newsbird.

When the news bird saw that Shylock was so generous to give a thousand Baileys, those little eyes narrowed suddenly.

As the news bird flew away, Shylock threw a share of Foxy in the chaise longue and sat down in the chaise longue himself.

"Fish-Man Island has the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates, which is interesting."

Foxy looked at the latest news from the news, and on it was a picture of Marco planting a pirate flag on the roof of Ryugu Castle.

From this picture, it can be seen that Whitebeard is not just simply sheltering Fish-Man Island, but also regards Fish-Man Island as his own territory.

Otherwise, they would not have paid so much attention to sending immortal birds to Fish-Man Island, or even announcing the whole world.

In addition to this news, other news was reported, but it was all inconsequential.

"Sovereign, the island has been discovered ahead."

Guy Ram was testing the latest research telescope at the watchtower and found islands on the horizon.

If you climb up and look at the island, you'll find that it's like a crescent moon, with a bustling city and a lively harbor.

These are all normal, the only thing that is not normal is the pirate flag flying at the highest point of the island.

"Then get ready to go to the island."

Faulks didn't lift his head.

"Sovereign, it's time for us to enter the Whitebeard Sea, where the Whitebeard Pirates flag flies."

Guy Ram put the telescope back down.

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
