Six o'clock in the afternoon.

After passing another rapidly swirling wave, Nami's serious expression relaxed, a bright smile appeared on her face, and she stretched out with a big yawn:

"We've arrived at the core of the Storm Sea, that uninhabited island!"

It is like a valley basin, surrounded by constant whirlpools two hundred meters high, while in the center is a calm and waveless blue sea that is six hundred meters long.

Outside, dark clouds loomed overhead, but inside, the sky was blue with white clouds and a dazzling sunset, like an orange spotlight descending from the heavens, enveloping the island below, which was covered with lush forests.

Nami directed Nojiko to maneuver the sailboat along the gentle slope of the inner layer of the whirlpool towards the uninhabited island.

The Wavebreaker sailed on the calm sea with its sails fully open, and soon arrived near the shore of an uninhabited island.

Then the boat turned around and began to circle the island.

Glistening with golden light, Tote gazed towards a distant shoreline where a stretch of fine, golden sand unfolded before him.

Roar

Awoo

嘎嗷

At this moment, Tote's eyes flickered slightly as he looked towards the distant primeval forest.

A variety of powerful roars of beasts rose and fell, as if warmly welcoming the arrival of the crowd.

As the sailboats circled the island's shore, the surrounding beaches gradually revealed more and more wrecked ships of various ages and styles.

"Haha! It's a shipwreck!"

Nami suddenly became excited, and then Karina's eyes lit up as well: "My treasure spirit can't wait!"

"Pull over... Stop the boat immediately."

Thoth then said with a smile, "You are free to move around, but don't be careless. I sense the presence of many ferocious beasts deep within the island."

Nami nodded in agreement, saying earnestly, "That's right, I sensed it too."

But in the blink of an eye, Nami's smile grew even more excited. As the ship docked, she couldn't wait to leap onto the shore. She turned around, looked at everyone, and laughed heartily:

"There are plenty of shipwrecks and grounded ships here. Why don't we have a competition to see who finds the most valuable items?"

Karina's eyes lit up.

Norgi, Johnny, Joseph, and the others also showed some interest. Thoth glanced at them and smiled:

"Let's pair up!"

Noki raised her hand and said with a smile:

"There's one left!"

As he spoke, he looked at Tiger Girl, but Tiger Girl opened her mouth wide and yawned, lazily lying on the deck, her meaning clear:

This tiger is going to bed, don't disturb me.

Thoth shrugged at her, and Nojiko's face immediately darkened: "Traitor!"

"Partner, the two of us together?"

"That's right. As long as we work together, we'll be invincible."

"Yes, second best in the world."

Johnny glanced at Thoth, and Joseph immediately realized what was happening, stroking his chin with great seriousness as he said, "Indeed, the two of us are not yet able to defeat the boss."

Thoth rolled his eyes at the two clowns, speechless. But then, Karina blinked, took a step forward, and stood beside Thoth with a bright smile:

"I'm the weakest on the ship, so I need to be in a group with the strongest person."

Nami's face darkened as she looked down from the boat. Nojiko glanced at her subtly, then smiled helplessly and said, "Alright, then I'll go with Nami."

Thoth smiled and turned to look at Karina: "Which ship have you taken a fancy to?"

Karina's eyes sharpened as she scanned the area before pointing to a dilapidated three-masted merchant ship.

"My gut feeling tells me that there should be some very good results there."

As he spoke, he grabbed Toth's hand, jumped off the boat, and ran quickly over.

The 300-meter distance disappeared quickly on their feet.

Nami watched the two figures disappear into the distance, pursed her lips, then looked around, her eyes brightening slightly as she pointed to a massive shipwreck, mostly buried beneath the beach:

"Nokiko, let's go there."

Nojiko smiled slightly, jumped lightly, and with a soft snap in the air, she appeared next to Nami.

Nami exclaimed enviously, "You're almost at the level of Tsukuyomi!"

Soon, the two arrived at the sunken ship. Nojiko blinked, then punched the bottom of the sunken ship with all her might.

A hole half the height of a person appeared, and a cloud of dust poured out. Nami quickly took out a silk scarf and tied it around her mouth and nose.

He pulled a flashlight from his lower back, grinned, and quickly crawled inside. The shipwreck was spacious, but covered in cobwebs.

After carefully searching each cabin, Nami and her companion gradually figured out what kind of ship this was.

In the captain's cabin.

The flashlight shone on a yellowed diary, which Nami had already read most of:

"Tsk! Eighty-seven years ago, a CP7 agent ship of the World Government was on a secret mission. So the World Government has a secret organization like CP! I've never seen anything like it before!"

Nojiko, standing to the side, looked on with suspicion:

"Why does this diary entry seem to be written in a disjointed, piecemeal fashion?"

"There's a secret inside. I found a quote from a widely circulated nautical book on every page, along with a string of numbers that looks like coordinates."

Nami's eyes lit up with excitement; she was an expert in situations like this where deciphering codes was necessary.

"Let's look for it first."

Soon, Nochiko found the book in a rusty iron box.

Nami carefully flipped through the pages, matching the numbers to the corresponding words in the book. After about ten minutes, Nami's eyes lit up, and she burst into laughter.

“I’m an absolute genius. This contains the coordinates of a treasure map, and the treasure is buried right here on this beach.”

"Let's go! Let's go treasure hunting."

087. Double yolk egg!

Having already searched several cabins, we are now walking through the passageway inside the sunken ship.

Click!

With one foot she stepped on a weathered ship plank, her body plummeted downwards. Karina cried out in alarm, but her body remained suspended in mid-air.

Karina patted her ample chest, exhaled slowly, and looked up at Thoth with a grin, "Thanks!"

Grabbing her by the collar and placing her on the ground beside him, Thoth couldn't help but complain:

"It seems your preferred target isn't very friendly to you?"

Karina blushed and couldn't help but roll her eyes at Thoth. "Shut up! My intuition is always right. I have a feeling that something here is attracting me!"

"It's a feeling that's hard to describe, like seeing a beautiful dress you like in a boutique."

Thoth narrowed his eyes slightly. If it weren't for the fact that his Observation Haki hadn't failed to detect any signs of life here, he would have thought that some alien creature was manipulating her mind and influencing her.

However, looking down at the girl's serious expression, Thoth's eyes lit up with curiosity: "Then I'll be really looking forward to it. What's attracting you?"

Karina blinked her eyes, then suddenly smiled, hooked her left arm around Thoth's neck, and swiftly kissed the corner of Thoth's mouth while standing on tiptoe.

She laughed brightly, "Isn't it you who attracts me the most?"

Since there was no one else around, Karina decided to let loose completely, even though there were still people coming and going on the ship, so she still had to be mindful of the situation.

But now... hehehe!

Thoth looked at her speechlessly, then reached out and placed his hand on her head. Karina tilted her head slightly and smiled cutely.

"What? You feel you've been taken advantage of. So you're going to get revenge?"

Thoth: "..."

Karina's smile grew even brighter, and then she glanced at the hole at her feet, shining the light of her flashlight down into it.

Unfortunately, we can only see a portion of it.

However, the space below is actually quite flat.

"This cargo ship must have encountered an extreme storm back then, as there are all sorts of signs of being twisted and torn on the ship."

Moreover, there were many fragmented skeletons inside the ship's cabin that looked like they had been gnawed on.

It must have been attacked by marine life.

As he spoke, he took a deep breath, looked at the hole more than a meter in diameter at his feet, and used his paper-drawing lightness technique to jump straight down.

*Snap!*

Karina's feet sank into the floor, but she quickly pulled herself out.

Using the momentum from the air, Thoth landed smoothly beside her and, with the help of Karina's light, saw the layout inside.

Various pieces of furniture collapsed haphazardly.

Karina looked around and came to an overturned desk. Seeing a pile of scattered papers on the floor, she sighed softly.

"It's all completely rotten."

Then, a picture frame was spotted on a wall. Upon closer inspection, a look of curiosity appeared in his eyes.

The picture frame depicts a blond middle-aged man dressed in aristocratic attire, surrounded by cards of various colors that appear to float indistinctly.

However, the color fades badly, and it's even becoming slightly blurry.

When Thoth came closer, he saw the card in the photo, which seemed to have a ethereal quality that could infuriate Newton:

"Is he an ability user?"

Curiosity flickered in Thoth's eyes. Karina, having heard Thoth's words, looked surprised, then nodded in agreement.
