One Piece: Start Collecting Nicolo

He can go to the Sky Island or find the Golden City.

But what he wanted to do most in his heart was to clear the name of his ancestors.

Although he himself did not care about the opinions of the world, or rather, he once cared about it, but the moment Caesar gave the answer, the opinions of the world were no longer important. He had already got the answer to his life for so many years.

"Then wait here for a while."

Caesar took out a small table, put some delicious food and wine on it, opened a bottle of wine, and poured a glass for Kulik.

"My men are clearing out the entire Gaya Island. From now on, this will become my territory, or in other words, an outpost of my base camp."

"You want to bring the Golden Country under your control?"

Kulik immediately understood what Caesar meant.

"Of course, there's no better place to be based."

Caesar nodded. Although transportation to Sky Island was inconvenient, he had no shortage of talented people under his command.

Both Daxiong and Yixiao are capable of traveling between Sky Island and Qinghai on their own.

Big Bear can use the Meatball Fruit to hit it up, and Yixiao can even use his ability to carry the entire ship up, but Caesar will not let him do that, as his subordinates still need experience.

Fruit abilities are certainly convenient, but navigation skills are just as important!

Although the usefulness of navigation has been downplayed in anime, for this vast ocean, a 100-meter ship is actually no different from a mosquito in a swimming pool. Navigation is the greatest confidence for people to sail on this ocean!

In the future, if conditions permit, I will try to avoid this kind of dangerous voyage, but I must know this thing!

Theoretically, if Baby5 has enough physical strength, she can also try to transform into a missile and fly up, but of course Caesar will not let her take this risk easily.

After taking away the high-mobility or space-type fruits such as the Float-Float Fruit, Door-Door Fruit, Teleport Fruit, and Mirror-Mirror Fruit, he will no longer lack the means to travel between Sky Island and Qinghai.

As for the current stage, Caesar is embarrassed to let Yixiao, someone of his age, go through so much trouble.

boom--

From the other side of the forest, another noise came from afar.

Caesar's observational Haki swept through the town and saw that Gardino had transformed into an oversized candle giant. Several of the Sixth Brothers were hiding in the giant's armor and having a lot of fun...

Then after a while, Ace and Bonnie joined in.

Yamato was eager to try it, but considering the narrow space inside the giant's body and the fact that he was already a married woman, it was not very convenient after all, so he regretfully gave up the idea.

Caesar could only say thank God for this. Although he had taught the other party more than once that there were differences between men and women and that one should not let others take advantage of one another, to be honest, he really didn't expect the girl to remember it.

It really touched him a little...

Chapter 118 Heaven

In just over an hour, Gaya Island was completely plowed by Ace and his men.

Although it is a pirate island, it is only located in the first half of the Grand Line. The guy with the highest bounty on the island is only worth tens of millions of berries, which is no match for Ace and his friends.

Originally, Caesar thought there would be one or two people with special abilities, but unfortunately, he was unlucky and there was not a single person with special abilities on the island.

The quality of this year's new pirates is not high. In the original plot, there was only one supernova, Ace, in the year when Ace went to sea.

It is worth mentioning that next year’s supernova pirate is Cavendish, and he is the only one.

It wasn't until the year Luffy went to sea that there was a boom.

In previous years, it was rare to see pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million in the park.

This is also why Caesar is so intimidating.

In a place where people can act tyrannically even with a bounty of tens of millions, the feeling of oppression is extremely strong when a guy with a bounty of billions suddenly appears!

After a while, the strongest pirates on the island were all killed by Ace's fire fist.

Bonnie doesn't kill people, but Ace's fire fist has no eyes.

On the other side of the island, the people who had cleared the entire island found Caesar drinking and chatting with Kulik under the guidance of their observation Haki.

"Ha—Chestnut Head!"

Yamato pointed at Kulik's head and said excitedly.

"Haha, you're so energetic."

Looking at the group of young people in front of him, Kulik smiled.

"Wait, this hairstyle..."

Noticing Kulik's chestnut hair, Luo's pupils trembled: "Big Liar Nolando?"

"Are you from Beihai..."

Kulik looked at Luo. Luo's plush hat was obviously in the Beihai style.

And the story of Nolando, the Big Liar, is also widely spread in Beihai...

"I am Montblanc Kulik, a descendant of Nolando."

Kulik lit a cigarette and said calmly, "I've been here for many years."

"Are you going for the Golden Country?" Luo asked.

"what…"

Kulik nodded. "I always thought that the Golden Country sank into the sea, just as Nolando said, until this guy just told me that the Golden Country was washed onto the White Sea by the strong current."

"It's incredible, fate plays tricks on us..."

"Doesn't that mean you've wasted a lot of years?"

Luo's eyes were a little complicated. He still admired the other party's spirit. Just because of a vague legend, he spent so many years on a pirate island like Gaya Island.

"Haha, not really. I still gained something."

As he spoke, Kulik took out a package and opened it. The golden light suddenly shone in everyone's eyes.

"Is this... a golden bird?"

Nami's eyes sparkled with light, and her figure appeared beside Kulik in a flash.

"This is the compass bird, also known as the south-seeing bird. Here, this is it."

Caesar kicked the compass bird at his feet. At this time, the big stupid bird had woken up and was squatting beside Caesar with an unwilling look on its face.

"This is the habitat of the Compass Bird, so there were many Compass Bird golden eagles in the ancient Golden Country. If we want to ride the high current to the Sky Island, we need to rely on these birds to locate us."

"So, these sculptures are from the Golden Country?"

Robin picked up a small sculpture of a compass bird and felt it was heavy.

"Gold-plated?"

"Even in the Golden City, they wouldn't be so extravagant as to build an entire city out of pure gold. Otherwise, even if they hollowed out the planet, they wouldn't be able to find that much gold."

Caesar shook his head and laughed. There would be no shortage of gold in the Golden City, but it was impossible for all objects to be made of pure gold.

For example, a golden bell. If it were a large bell made of pure gold, it would probably make a hole when struck.

"Nami, Bebop, for the next few days, you will follow Mr. Kulik and learn how to predict the turbulent currents."

Caesar arranged, "Everyone else, please go down and help Dr. Wolfe drive the ship over here. We need to modify the ship in the next few days."

"Finally, we're going to Sky Island..."

Ace was eager to try it out. In addition to his curiosity about Sky Island, it was time to put his power boat on the agenda.

"Well, Mr. Kulik, please give me your guidance."

Nami and Bebop bowed humbly.

"You're welcome. I'm just trying to help to the best of my ability. After all, this is also my long-cherished wish."

Kulik chuckled.

He had a good impression of Caesar and his gang; they were young, lively, and kind.

Although Caesar had doubts about his leadership, he could see that the young people around him were very innocent.

Soon, everyone drove the boat to the side of Kulik's house, and Nami and Beibao began to learn about the knowledge of the rushing ocean current.

At night, the group held a party outside Kulik's cabin.

Also attending the banquet were Kulik's two younger brothers and two captains of the Yuanshan United Army.

One of them looks like an ape and the other looks like a gorilla.

As for appearance, it can be said that the name suits the person.

The two men went out to carry out salvage work during the day, and accidentally avoided being eliminated by Caesar and his gang.

However, after learning that all the pirates on the island were killed by Caesar and his gang, the two were also frightened.

Caesar didn't make things difficult for the two of them. After all, he still needed Kulik's help in calculating the ocean current.

Besides, these two people didn't do anything bad, they just liked to salvage. Caesar was not an extremist like Akainu, so he naturally wouldn't attack them.

Over the past few hundred years, pirates have become a culture in this world.

Just like the Viking pirates on Earth, people in the pirate world admire pirate culture more because of their brave spirit of adventure rather than burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of evil.

Of course, most pirates are not good people.

……

The pattern of the turbulent ocean current is not difficult to find. The main reason for this supernatural phenomenon is the eruption of submarine volcanoes.

In just two days, Nami mastered the measurement rules and accurately deduced the arrival time of the next upwelling current - thirty nautical miles east of Gaya Island in four days.

So Caesar caught another pointing bird.

As for the guide bird, he didn't release it either. After all, two of them could keep each other company.

And the two birds are pointing in different directions, so they can be used as a reference.

Taking advantage of this time, others, under the command of Dr. Wolf, gave the ship a new upgrade!

Many small sails were hung on the bow and stern, and there were two round cylindrical objects at the stern.

On both sides of the ship, there are two straight wings like bird wings.

Caesar looked at the two wings and was silent for a while.

Although the feasibility of wings has been personally confirmed by Merry in the original book, it still looks weird.

"We'll have the apes and gorillas take your boat to your destination. All you have to do is wait for the current to break out."

Early in the morning, Kulik, holding a cigarette, bid farewell to Caesar and the others.

"I won't say much else. Anyway, have a safe journey."

"Ah, I'll lend you my blessing."

Caesar waved his hand, jumped to the bow of the ship, and with the help of the Saruyama Allied Forces, sailed towards the east of the island.

Soon, the ship arrived at its approximate destination.

Gardino and von Kray were shaking like sieves, but they still stood on the deck with forced composure.

Even the usually calm Law was a little agitated, while Ace and Bonnie were jumping around non-stop, their expressions unable to hide their excitement.

There is no way. Flying to an altitude of ten thousand meters on a boat is really a fantasy.

Fortunately, Caesar and Yixiao are there to back them up, which is also the confidence of everyone on the ship for this voyage.

Compared to everyone else, Caesar was much calmer. He even had the leisure to tease the compass birds, making the two silly birds scream in anger.

No one asked Caesar why he didn't let Yixiao use his ability to take them up, not even Nami, who was always timid.

When it comes to adventure, if you can't achieve your goal through your own efforts, then even if you achieve it, it's meaningless.

In fact, Nami was the calmest among this group of young people.

After all, she is the navigator of this ship, and what she has to consider is never whether she can do it, but how to take Caesar to where he wants to go.

"This is probably it!"

The ape lay on the railing of the salvage ship and shouted loudly.

"The next step is to identify the specific location and use echolocation to find the seabed vortex."
