I'm in One Piece, and I'm Luffy's childhood friend.

"Old man, you haven't seen enough people from Qinghai."

Gan Fall didn't refute it; instead, he agreed.

“What you said is not wrong. Very few people from Qinghai can reach this level.”

"By the way, how did that person manage to run on the sea?"

Chopper asked a question out of curiosity.

"Hmm...wait a minute, I know you have a mountain of questions, but let's talk business first."

"I am a free mercenary, and this is a dangerous ocean."

"Those who are unaware of aerial combat are often hunted down by the guerrillas just now, and thus perish in the belly of the air fish."

"One whistle and I'll pay you 500 million IK, and I'll come to your rescue."

Gan Faure explained his business.

Bai Yun remembered that 1 Beli equals 10000 Iq, so 500 million Iq would be 500 Beli, which isn't expensive.

But Luffy and his crew will never use it.

"Old man, you're a mercenary too? What a coincidence, I was one before."

Bai Yun replied that if he had been a mercenary before, he had even fooled himself.

"Oh, you're a mercenary too? Look at your physique..."

Gan Fall said he didn't finish his sentence, which was just politeness.

"For this reason, I can reduce your pay by another 50 Iraqi kilograms, making it 450 Iraqi kilograms per whistle."

Ganford continued, but the room fell silent, and no one paid him any attention.

"This is the lowest price!! Don't even think about bargaining, we need to make a living too!!"

Gan Fall got anxious

"No, we don't know what you mean by 'Ik,' and what that whistle is?"

Sanji returned.

Now it was Gan Fall's turn to be shocked. "You...didn't you come all the way from the Western Peak? If so, you'd have to pass through at least two more islands!"

"What are you talking about? I don't understand, sir."

Luffy saying he doesn't understand is normal for Luffy.

"Wait, judging from his tone, he means there are other ways to get to the Sky Island, and he said it would take one or two islands. Does that mean there are many Sky Islands?"

Nami grasped the key point in Ganford's words.

Ganford understood. "Could it be that you all came here via that monstrous ocean current?!"

"I never imagined there were still such brave people around today."

Nami burst into tears, filled with regret. "I knew it, I knew it, that wasn't an ordinary route."

Indeed, can a surging ocean current of that scale be called "ordinary"?

"As long as we can get there, that's fine."

Luffy retorted.

Nami grabbed him and shook him angrily, "We almost died! Do you know that we could have slowly gathered information and then chosen a safer route to get here?"

"Calm down, Miss Nami."

"Perhaps, if we go to gather intelligence again, we don't know when we will be able to get to this sky island, or we may not even be able to gather any information. It's all fate's arrangement."

"Some good things are best left to fate."

"Besides, how do you know the other route is safe, Miss Nami?"

After recovering, Bai Yun got up and went over to persuade Nami to calm down.

Gan Fall agreed with Bai Yun's words.

"What this long-haired young man said makes sense."

"Have you suffered any losses?"

"No, all of us arrived."

Luffy replied.

"Well, if it were another route, assuming 100 people went up together, we wouldn't know how many would survive and reach the destination, it would be like gambling."

"If we go through the surging ocean current, it's either all of us will reach the destination or all of us will perish. This is an even bigger gamble."

"It's either 0 or 100. In recent years, very few people have dared to gamble like that."

“You must all be navigators with both courage and skill.”

When Gan Fall said this, he did glance at Usopp on the deck who kept shouting "Skypiea is terrifying," but he couldn't take back what he had already said.

When his gaze returned, he glanced at Bai Yun.

Bai Yun almost jumped up and demanded, "What do you mean?! What kind of look is that?! I need to see a lawyer!!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Usopp was fully recovered.

"Thank you for the compliment, I am extremely grateful, although everything is under the wise leadership of Captain Usopp..."

"Have you bragged enough?!"

Nami and Baiyun couldn't stand it anymore and dragged him away.

"This is what we call a whistle."

Gan Fall ignored Usopp, though he was very curious about his nose.

"Although I charge 500 million IK per transaction, I admire your courage and will give you a free whistle."

After saying that, Gan Fall turned around as if to leave, but Nami immediately called him back.

Chapter 247 It's better not to have too high expectations for some things.

The current Sky Island exploration progress is: 0%

After all, they haven't even gone inside yet.

However, based on what Gan Faure said, it could barely be considered 1%.

But Gan Fall stated that he was an "air knight," not a director, and after leaving behind his fee for each rescue—well, more accurately, his fee and method—he turned and left.

Nami called out to him, and only Bai Yun knew the name Gan Fall.

"Wait a minute, may I ask your name?"

Gan Fall turned to the side.

“I am Gan Fall, the Sky Knight.”

The bird that had carried him there earlier chirped beside him.

"Pierre!!"

“It is Pierre’s partner.”

Gan Faure then took the opportunity to introduce his partner, Pierre.

"There's something I forgot to tell you. My partner Pierre, although he's a bird, is a user of the Horse-Horse Fruit."

"So, it can transform into a winged horse!"

"That is..."

At this point, Nami looked at the outline of "Pegasus" and thought to herself that finally there was a creature that resembled the creature that existed in the daytime.

"Oh my god! So beautiful... Is that a Pegasus?"

"Miss Nami, it's best not to have too high expectations for some things."

Bai Yun reminded him with a wry smile, "If I didn't know how 'handsome' Pierre looked in his horse form, I would also find the pegasus-like silhouette sacred and beautiful."

However, the reality is that after the shadows dissipated...

It's a... spotted Pegasus... beautiful... with a pretty profile...

"That's right, it's Pegasus!"

"Pierre!!"

Gan Fall looked very proud, but everyone who saw him had a "no rain" mark on the back of his head.

"Good luck to you brave warriors."

Gan Fall rode away on his winged horse.

Looking at their retreating figures, Sanji finally made a comment.

"It turned into a strange creature."

"So, as I said, don't have too high expectations."

Bai Yun returned home.

.........

Once Gan Faure and Pierre had completely disappeared from sight.

Robin realized, "In the end, he didn't reveal anything."

"A little bit."

Bai Yun returned home.

"Oh, what is it?"

Robin immediately asked.

"When he first came, he briefly mentioned that this was the 'White Sea,' which is 7000 meters above the ground. There is another 'White White Sea' at an altitude of 10000 meters, which is even higher than the White Sea."

"Could it be that the Sky Island is located above the White Sea?"

Bai Yun pointed out that this wasn't a script; it was purely due to his own intelligence and careful attention.
