Pirates: Going out to sea? Cultivate to the Mahayana stage first

Thinking of this, Annuo couldn't help but sigh.

It has to be said that faith can indeed give people spiritual comfort and support in many cases.

However, when faced with a life-and-death situation, it often cannot instantly eliminate illness and save lives like magic.

Not to mention that one believes in a ferocious snake like the god Cassi, and it is a blessing not to be swallowed by it.

An Nuo turned around slowly and looked around with sharp eyes.

Suddenly, his sight stopped on the rock wall of the basin behind the pyramid.

Suddenly, there appeared a huge hole that was extremely deep and slanted downward, as if it led directly to the underworld.

Looking at the dark hole, An Nuo's expression became a little strange, and he muttered to himself: "Could it be that... this is the nest of the giant snake just now?"

The more he looked, the more he felt that this bottomless cave was most likely the hiding place of the giant snake.

After all, the express shrimp that had brought them here at lightning speed just now seemed to have disappeared into the cave in the blink of an eye.

The Lord of the Sky, who seemed to be revered by the Shandians as "Nolan", was shot down from the sky by Anno.

Then the express shrimp took the opportunity to sneak into the other person's nest as if possessed by a ghost.

No one can guess what this guy is up to.

Could it be that it thought that the Lord of the Sky had already died, so this express shrimp tried to take his place and openly occupy the nest that originally belonged to the Lord of the Sky?

After Nami and Makino split up, they began a meticulous search in this vast basin.

Time passed minute by minute, and more than ten minutes had passed, but she was unable to find even one glittering gold object.

Looking at the scene in front of her, which was nothing but stones and yellow mud everywhere, and even a piece of discarded iron could not be found, Nami's mood instantly fell to the bottom. Her hope turned into nothing, and was replaced by deep disappointment.

"Brother-in-law, could it be that we are in the wrong place? I have been wandering around here for quite some time and I haven't even seen a single golden hair."

Nami's pretty face was now filled with gloom. She walked quickly to Anno with an unhappy look on her face and complained.

Facing Nami's doubt, An Nuo smiled slightly, reached out his hand and gently rubbed her little head, and comforted her: "Isn't that what adventure is like? There are times when you are full of expectations, but at the same time you may face a situation where you get nothing."

"But don't lose heart. Maybe if we look a little longer, the hidden gold will reveal itself."

However, just as An Nuo finished his words, a dull and low vibration sound suddenly came from the cave in the distance...

Then, the express shrimp, which moved as fast as the wind, came back like lightning and quickly emerged from the deep and dark cave.

At this moment, Anno and Hina, who had been standing quietly at the top of the pyramid, raised their heads at the same time, their mouths slightly opened, and expressions of surprise appeared on their faces.

Nami, who seemed to have no interest in all this, almost couldn't control herself and flew down.

"So...so much gold!"

Nami's eyes widened and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

A dazzling golden light was clearly reflected in her eyes.

I saw that on the broad and flat back of the express shrimp, there was a pile of shiny golden objects as big as a hill. These golden objects sparkled brightly under the sunlight, which was dazzling.

"Big prawn, stop it right now!"

Nami's voice trembled with excitement. She had never seen such an astonishing amount of gold treasure.

After hearing Nami's cry, the express shrimp turned his gaze towards her.

When it saw Nami's big eyes sparkling with excitement, a hint of hesitation suddenly flashed in its smiling eyes.

The footsteps that were about to pass by the pyramid also slowly stopped.

Then, without hesitation, it raised its two huge claws that were like giant pincers and clamped the mountain of golden objects on its back.

There was a rustling sound, and a large number of golden objects were instantly picked up by its powerful pincers.

Under the astonished gaze of An Nuo and Nami, these extremely precious golden objects scattered all over the place and finally landed steadily on the stone altar in front of the two people.

Then, the huge express shrimp raised its huge and powerful claws high again.

The pliers flashed with a cold light, as if they could easily cut through anything hard.

Then it quickly used its pincers to cover the mountain of golden objects on its broad back, fearing that these treasures would be lost in the slightest.

Then, the express shrimp suddenly spread out its dozen or so thick, thorny limbs, each of which was as hard as steel.

In the blink of an eye, it climbed to the top of the steep rock wall at an astonishing speed.

With a loud rumbling sound, it directly knocked open another passage hidden in the woods and disappeared from the sight of the two people in the blink of an eye.

"No! My gold..." Nami widened her eyes, watching the pile of glittering gold slip away from her. Her heart was filled with reluctance and regret, and she was even about to shed tears of grievance in her eyes.

An Nuo, who was standing by, was also staring intently at the express shrimp that disappeared like lightning, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly involuntarily.

Who would have thought?

This express shrimp was so bold as to come and raid the Lord of the Sky’s lair!

What’s even more surprising is that this thing seems to have an incredibly high IQ.

However, An Nuo quickly came to his senses, smiled and said to Nami who looked frustrated beside him: "Don't worry, Nami."

"I have made preparations and secretly left a unique mark on the body of the express shrimp. Let it keep the gold for us for the time being."

At this time, the Express Shrimp who had already left was still immersed in the joy of obtaining a large amount of gold, and had no idea that the treasure he had taken away with great joy had already been secretly targeted by An Nuo.

However, right now, An Nuo did not have the extra time to pay attention to the smug express shrimp.

Because according to his memory, the amount of gold stored in the Golden Country is simply an astronomical figure. It is an immeasurable wealth, which is by no means comparable to the little gold carried on a mere express shrimp.

Now that Annuo had spoken like this, Nami's heart quickly calmed down.

Then, her originally worried eyes were instantly attracted by the mountains of gold objects on the stone platform in front of her.

Those express shrimps were waving their huge claws, and they could easily fill up a stone platform of more than a dozen square meters with just a casual grab.

However, due to the large number of gold objects, many of them slipped off the stone platform and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

These are all golden and shiny money!

Looking around, the entire stone platform was filled with countless gold coins and various strangely shaped gold products. It was simply a jaw-dropping mountain of gold and silver.

At this time, Hina, who was standing nearby, excitedly raised a golden cup that she had just wiped clean of dust, and could not help but exclaimed loudly: "Wow, come and see! This cup is so exquisite! Not only are there patterns of flowers, plants, and trees carefully carved on it, but if you look closely you can also find many winding and twisting patterns like spirals!"

Could it be that such superb and exquisite carving craftsmanship has really existed in the world hundreds of years ago?

This is incredible!

Hearing Hina's exclamation, Anno walked over with interest, picked up a golden dagger inlaid with bright rubies, and held it high in front of him to examine it carefully.

The bright red ruby ​​was as dazzling as a burning flame and was as big as his thumb.

Under the sunlight, it emits waves of dreamy and blurred red glow, like the colorful afterglow of the sunset on the horizon in the evening, so beautiful that it is breathtaking.

Looking at the extremely gorgeous golden dagger in his hand, An Nuo couldn't help but suddenly had an idea. If he found a mysterious and unique mask to embed into the handle of the dagger, and then wore it on his body, it might produce some kind of magical power, and it might even allow the wearer to directly evolve into the legendary ultimate creature...

Thinking of this, a smile full of anticipation and fantasy appeared involuntarily on Annuo's face.

Chapter 187 Devil Fruit

Suddenly, a clear and loud cry came into his ears, and the voice came from Nami.

"Wow! Brother An Nuo, look, this golden treasure chest is so beautiful!"

The surface is carved with countless exquisite cloud patterns, like a masterpiece of art that is so ingeniously crafted.

It is really hard to imagine what kind of treasures such a precious and rare treasure chest would be used to hold.

Nami shouted excitedly, and impatiently reached out to pry open the buckle on the box.

There was a crisp "click" sound, and the lid of the box opened.

At the same time, Anno, who had been looking elsewhere, quickly turned his head and looked over here after hearing the sound. When his eyes fell on the opened golden treasure chest in Nami's hand, his eyes instantly widened, as if he had seen something incredible.

"What on earth is this?"

Nami stared at the thing in her hand with her mouth wide open, unable to close for a long time.

At this moment, Hina was also dumbfounded, her face full of astonishment and suspicion.

It turned out that in the open treasure chest, there lay quietly a mysterious fruit with a strange shape and cloud-like textures on its surface.

The appearance of this fruit is like a dazzling star, emitting dazzling light, and its beauty is beyond imagination.

"Brother An Nuo, could it be that... this is the legendary devil fruit?!"

Nami carefully took out the star-shaped black fruit from the box with trembling hands, her heart filled with excitement and nervousness.

The fruit had an amazing freshness, as if it had just been picked by someone from some mysterious place and then carefully placed in this treasure chest not long ago.

However, this is almost impossible to happen!

Putting aside the fact that this treasure chest was stolen from the Lord of the Sky's lair by the Express Shrimp after untold hardships, just looking at the severely twisted and deformed buckles on the box that would be difficult for an ordinary person to open if Nami wasn't so powerful, as well as the cracked mud inside the buckles, is enough to infer that the box stayed in the Lord of the Sky's lair for a very long time.

Perhaps it has been sleeping there for hundreds of years, or even longer, who can say for sure?

After careful identification and deep consideration, it can be confirmed without a doubt that this should be the legendary devil fruit.

"Oh my god! What kind of incredible luck do we have?"

"I was able to pick up a devil fruit that's worth at least 100 million berries!"

When Nami heard the astonishing number "100 million", her heart almost jumped out of her throat with excitement, and she felt the whole world was spinning.

At this moment, the fruit in her hand, which seemed ordinary but was actually priceless, actually had such a high value - a full 100 million Baileys!

An Nuo also found it unbelievable what was happening before his eyes. He rubbed his eyes curiously, fearing that he might be hallucinating and seeing things wrong.

After all, he had tasted the devil fruit himself, so he naturally had a very deep understanding of it.

The fruit in front of me, whether judging from its appearance or the aura it exudes, is undoubtedly a devil fruit.

I have to admit that my luck is amazing!

Think about it, Luffy and his companions have gone through untold hardships, sailed for a long time, and even entered a mysterious new world, but they can only catch a glimpse of the devil fruit occasionally.

However, at this moment, a devil fruit appeared in front of everyone without any warning.

It is no exaggeration to say that this devil fruit seemed to have been picked up for free.

You know, even Buggy, who claimed to have the luck of a conqueror, could not achieve such an amazing feat.
