Chapter 257 Wukong, save us!
On the Merry, everyone was enjoying the food and chatting.

Conis knew that Goku, Luffy and the others wanted to visit Sky Island, so she introduced the characteristics of Sky Island to them.

After the introduction, the smile on her face faded and turned into a serious expression:
"Everyone, you can have fun on Angel Island, but you must not leave here and go to the other island next to it."

Ok?
Everyone looked at him with some confusion.

"Is there a second sky island here, Conis?"

Nami asked curiously.

"Yes, it is called the Sanctuary by us, and its name is Arpaiado, the Island of Gods."

Conis's face was very serious.

"That is a place we cannot set foot in no matter what, because that is where God lives. If anyone sets foot there, they will be punished by God."

"god?"

Everyone was a little stunned.

"You mean a god? A powerful god?"

Luffy surprisingly didn't bother to eat and looked at it with a look of surprise.

"Is there really a god in this world?"

Chopper rubbed his furry little face and opened his mouth wide.

"Yes, the god's name is Enel, and he is an omnipotent god. Everything that everyone on our island does is in his eyes."

"Ah? You mean he's watching us all the time? Then aren't we being watched by him now too?!"

Usopp was startled and felt a little creepy.

Nami was also a little bit unbelieving: "Is there really such a god?"

All of them were amazed at this so-called God.

On the other side, Puyol and Robin looked at Goku who was eating with relish, and then looked at each other.

"It seems that the person who spied on us before must be this so-called god."

Robin said thoughtfully.

"Humph, what kind of god is that? After meeting Boss Wukong, he retreated in disgrace."

Puyol's face was full of disdain.

Their conversation was not concealed, so Luffy and the others heard it all.

"What? What are you talking about?"

Usopp's face was filled with surprise.

“Have you known God for a long time?”

"We don't know, but when we first arrived here, Goku discovered that someone was spying on us."

Robin said softly.

"Now based on what Conis said, I think that person is the god here."

???

Luffy and the others all widened their eyes.

"Really? Goku discovered God before, so why didn't we feel it?"

Luffy asked in surprise.

"fool!"

Before Robin could answer, Nami answered first: "Do we have the strength of Goku? Goku is so powerful that he can detect it, how can we detect it?"

After learning that Wukong could detect the so-called god's spying, her nervous heart suddenly calmed down.

Tsk! What god? It must be just someone with stronger power pretending to be a god!
Now that they have Goku by their side, they are not afraid of each other!

"whispering sound!"

Although he knew that what Nami said was true, Luffy still pouted in dissatisfaction.

"One day I will be stronger than him!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

Nami replied perfunctorily, and then noticed that Connie's face turned pale and she was sweating a lot, so she couldn't help but ask with concern: "Connie, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

Conis clenched her fists tightly, lowered her head and did not answer.

Nami's expression moved, and she immediately remembered the awe-filled expression on Conis's face when she introduced God to them. She immediately guessed what she was afraid of.

"Don't worry, Conis. The god you mentioned is probably just a relatively powerful human. You don't have to be afraid of anything. He probably isn't paying attention to us right now."

"Right, Goku?"

She asked, looking at this trip's thighs.

"Ah?"

Wukong, who had been concentrating on eating and not interrupting, looked up and blinked when he heard this, then nodded and said, "If you are talking about the person from before, there is indeed no one now."

"Look!"

After getting confirmation, Nami hugged Conis and said, "So you don't have to worry about anything. He doesn't know you are with us."

Conis remained silent.

Seeing this, Nami sighed helplessly and didn't say anything more.

It seemed that after this meal, this new friend they had just met would stay away from them.

Soon, the meal came to an end.

"Arpaiado, the Island of Gods. Hey, hey, let's go there and take a look!"

Luffy rubbed his hands together, a smile showing his eagerness to try.

Places that mortals cannot set foot in sound very interesting, and he must go and explore them.

"Hey, Luffy, that's where the gods live, don't let that fool you!"

Although the mystery of this unknown god has been slightly weakened by Goku's influence, Usopp is not only not relieved, but becomes even more afraid of him.

Originally, they only heard from Conis that they were not sure whether this god could observe them anytime and anywhere, but with Wukong's proof, it was obvious that the god had this ability 100%.

Except for Wukong, no one else can sense it. (He didn't know that Puyol could sense it.)
What if Goku were separated from them? Wouldn't they be under the constant watch of the gods? It would be hard to predict what would happen then. Not to mention that the Island of Gods was a forbidden area, and no one knew what horrors might be there.

"Usopp is right, we should not cause any trouble."

Nami agreed.

Even though they have Wukong as their strong support, they cannot take the local people's taboo area lightly.

Regardless of whether the guy called God is a god or a human, since Conis said that ordinary people cannot set foot there, they should abide by the rules here and not deliberately cross them.

But how could Luffy be the kind of person who would listen to advice? The more you tell him not to go, the more he wants to go.

"I don't care! I want to go! We came here to visit those interesting places. That place is so mysterious, how can we miss it!"

Luffy crossed his arms across his chest, as stubborn as a bull, and refused to listen.

"Please don't be so stubborn, okay?!"

Nami was so angry that she rolled her eyes and wanted to grab his ears and have a good talk with him.

But at this moment, she caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye and subconsciously looked in that direction.

"Who are those people?"

I saw a group of people appearing on Angel Beach at some point. Their postures were very strange, and they were crawling on the ground.

Not far in front of the group of people, Conis, who had gotten off the boat earlier, was standing there, as if waiting for those people to pass by.

"These people are so strange, why are they lying on the ground?"

Luffy turned his head and noticed this scene, and couldn't help but tilt his head in confusion.

"I don't know. They look like they have something to do with Conis?"

Seeing that group of people came to Conis, stood up, and the leader was communicating with Conis, Nami subconsciously made such a guess.

"But why should they look at us?"

As Conis talked to the man, he glanced at them a few times, which made her feel a little strange.

“I always feel like those people are coming for us.”

Zoro walked here at some point and watched the scene with half-closed eyes.

"No way? If they want to find us, can't they just come over here?"

Usopp was puzzled. At this time, the captain of the White Beret Unit, McKinley, was speaking to Conis seriously:

"Remember, they are second-level death row prisoners who blasphemed God. Although you have had contact with them before, as long as you fulfill your obligations and lead them to the place of heaven's punishment, God will forgive your sins."

"But, but they are all very good people, how could this happen?"

Conis was in complete despair.

When she heard Puyol and Nami talking about God on the boat, she knew that something bad was going to happen.

God is omnipotent.

After six years of being ruled by God Enel, this realization had already been deeply rooted in her heart.

So even if Puyol and the others said that Wukong noticed God's surveillance and scared God away, she didn't believe it at all and thought that their actions and words were definitely blasphemy against God.

Because of this, no matter how Nami tried to persuade her before, she didn't listen.

The reason why she didn't speak was because she was struggling in her heart.

As a citizen of the Kingdom of God, she has the obligation to lead those who blaspheme God to the place of heaven's punishment.

But she didn't want to send these new friends to die, and she thought that if the White Berets hadn't come looking for her, Wukong and the others might not have committed such a serious crime.

And now, when McKinley, the captain of the White Berets, said this to her personally, she knew it was a done deal.

If she doesn't lead Goku and Luffy to the place of Heaven's Judgment, she will be punished by God, which is -

dead!
"Shut up! Conis, all you have to do now is fulfill your obligations! Don't do anything stupid!"

After being yelled at by McKinley, Conis turned around and walked towards the Merry in a panic.

Soon, he came under the boat and stood there with a conflicted look on his face.

"Cornis, is there something wrong?"

Nami, who had been keeping an eye on her, jumped off the boat and asked with a smile.

Behind her, curious Luffy and Usopp also jumped down.

"that."

Conis kept rubbing her fingers, her eyes dodging, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

"What's wrong? What did those people say to you?"

"No, no, I"

Connie's face was struggling, as if she was having a great psychological struggle.

If Goku and Luffy were villains, she would not have so much hesitation and resistance in guiding them to Heaven's Sanction now.

But the problem was that after this brief contact, she felt that the other parties were very friendly and nice people, and they treated her as a friend and invited her to eat delicacies she had never tasted before.

She is a kind person, and in this situation, she was asked to send the other person to death personally. She really felt that she could not do it.

"me."

Faced with the choice between letting her friend die and letting herself die, she could ultimately neither do the former nor the latter. She knelt down with a look of despair on her face, tears dripping down her face.

"What's wrong with you, Conis?"

Seeing her like this, Nami's heart tightened and she quickly squatted down and hugged her.

"Just tell us what's wrong and we'll help you."

After feeling Nami's warm body temperature, Conis sobbed softly for a few times, then bit her teeth hard and said with determination:

"You, you guys should leave quickly, leave here and go to the end of the clouds in the east."

Ok?
Nami, as well as Luffy and Usopp behind her, were all stunned.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Nami doesn't think it's okay, Conis will let them leave.

"Conis, why are you so stupid!"

Before Conis could speak, McKinley, who had walked up to a place not far behind them at some point, spoke with great sorrow.

He looked at Connie's back, his eyes full of anger and a little sadness and helplessness.

"Have you made up your mind, Conis? If you disobey God, you will be punished by God."

As he spoke, he stepped back.

Because he knew that God's judgment was coming soon.

"God's judgment? What's going on, Conis?"

Nami couldn't help but frown when she heard his voice.

"Stop talking, just go!"

Conis pushed Nami away and tried to get up and leave.

But before she could stand up, countless blue spots of light suddenly appeared in the sky, and then quickly condensed with a buzzing sound.

"It's too late. God's punishment has come."

McKinley, who had retreated a considerable distance, murmured with a complicated expression.

"What? This is?!"

Zoro on the boat had his hair standing on end as he stared at the scene in the air. He felt a strong sense of danger coming from it.

"Luffy! Get out of the way!!"

he shouted hastily.

Not far away, Puyol, who was doing nothing on the boat, also noticed the danger.

Without saying a word, he immediately put his arms around Robin's waist, then kicked his legs hard and jumped off the boat.

"What a strong energy!"

He thought solemnly.

hum! !

A dazzling light burst out from the sky, causing everyone on the ground to squint their eyes.

When Luffy realized that the situation was not good, he first kicked Usopp away, then held Nami with one hand and Conis with the other, and wanted to run away.

But he didn't know that this divine punishment had a built-in locking function. No matter how the target changed its position, it would bombard the target accurately!
And now, the target of God's punishment is Conis. Unless he lets go of Conis, he will definitely be affected.

boom! ! !
In an instant, a thick blue beam of light emitting an aura of destruction blasted towards Luffy and the other two below.

"Luffy!!"

Zoro's face changed drastically. He didn't expect that the light column would change direction. Now even if he wanted to step forward to stop it, it was too late.

'We're not going to die, are we?'

Nami, who was held in Luffy's arms, looked up at the attack falling on her head, and this thought involuntarily came to her mind.

Immediately afterwards, another thought came to mind:
'Wukong, save us!'

boom! ! !
In the blink of an eye, the destructive beam of light swallowed them up. The powerful energy fluctuations stirred up many strong winds, causing the surrounding sea of ​​clouds to fluctuate violently.

Zoro, who was swaying on the boat, held on to the railing tightly, looking at the place engulfed by thick smoke with an unbelievable look on his face: "Luffy?!"

"What?! What happened!?"

Sanji, who was cleaning the kitchen in the cabin, rushed out immediately after feeling the violent shaking of the ship.

After taking a quick look around and confirming that Usopp and Chopper were there, he fixed his eyes on the smoke.

"Luffy! Nami-san!"

"Hey! What happened to them? Tell me Green Algae Head!"

He grabbed Zoro by the collar and yelled in a panic.

Zoro, who should have retaliated for such an offense, did not move at this moment, but just stared at the smoke.

Seeing him like this, Sanji's heart sank and he turned his head back to stare at the thick smoke.

Then he jumped off the boat and ran towards there.

"Luffy! Nami-san! Come out now!"

Whoosh! !

Gan Foul, who had come to rescue them on a giant bird, suddenly stopped and sighed silently:

"Hey, am I late?"
