Chapter 76 Davy Jones and the Pirate Game [Davy? Back? Fight]
boo~
The sound of bubbles bursting rang out almost simultaneously.
Two ships flying the banners of the beasts rose from the water, accompanied by the cheers of the pirates.
"Finally, the sun is shining!!"
"My God, I absolutely never want to go back to Fishman Island!"
"But the mermaid ladies there are really gentle. Although the voyage was very depressing, just thinking about them makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside~"
"Who says otherwise? I heard when I delivered wine to Boss Bazel last time that the merfolk might come to our territory sometime. Who knows, we might even find a merwoman with legs spread apart to marry!"
"Oh, really?! Even if I die, I'll be a ghost of the Beasts Pirates!"
......
Hearing his subordinates' excited chatter, Bazel had no intention of joining in; instead, he walked to the bow of the ship.
"Abel, what happened?"
"No, it's just that the direction the record pointer is pointing is a bit strange."
Chi looked down at the New World-specific hands on his wrist, which had three dials.
"The rightmost trembling dial should be pointing to Thor Island without a doubt. If we were to calculate according to normal navigation patterns, we should take the middle route, which is the most stable."
"But on the left—"
"Where is Mr. Kaido? He might have been in this area. I'd like to ask him about his next route."
left·--
Bazel gazed at the seemingly ordinary sea, his eyes slightly narrowed.
He remembered that the Punk Exclusion Zone, which the World Government would establish in the future, seemed to be located in the sea not far from the New World.
There seemed to be a group of ancient giants frozen there. He turned and sat on the side of the ship, his head slightly lowered, stroking his chin with one hand.
Tom, who was walking towards Chi, raised his hand, signaling him to be quiet for a moment.
"Bazaar must have thought of something, don't disturb him."
Tom glanced at Bazel, his raised right hand holding something that looked like a bubble maker.
"My younger brother Dan is a research scholar at Hai Zhi Sen. This thing is a quick coating device made using mangrove roots."
"Since it's not a permanent measure, I'm thinking of having Bazel help send it to Asiye's lab."
Coating equipment?
Jin recalled the transparent bubble that protected the ship as it reached the depths of the ocean, and took the coating device, waving to the pirates not far away.
"Lord Jin!"
"Send this to Asiye and ask him if it's possible to mass-produce it."
"Yes, I'll send it over right away!"
"What if this could be mass-produced?"
Tom exclaimed excitedly, his left fist clenched into his right palm:
"If I can maintain the tree bubble's sustainable expansion, I might be able to build an underwater tunnel that can avoid sea kings—that would be an even safer and more secretive route!"
"Give me time, and maybe I can connect this passage to the four seas!"
"Combined with Asiye's theory of energy vehicles, global travel will no longer be a dream!!"
Jhin didn't quite understand the thought processes of these shipwrights and scientists, just as he couldn't understand why Bazel's mind was so intelligent.
But the necessary emotional value still needs to be provided.
"That sounds like a great idea, but what do you plan to use as an energy source?"
energy-·
Tom scratched his messy hair, looking troubled.
"This is also something that's giving me a headache. I heard Kaido mention pure gold, and I even went to check it out."
"That stuff seems to have a very strong inhibitory effect, but it's not really suitable as an energy source."
"If Asiye could create a machine that converts light into power, that would be more like it."
"We don't need to consider that matter for now."
Bazel turned his back to the sea and smiled at Tom:
"The undersea tunnel is something we should consider many years from now. What we are most concerned about right now is the renovation of Wano Country and the construction of Takamagahara."
There's also research on animal consciousness capture devices!
But Barzel didn't say those words aloud.
Tom is just a shipwright; he doesn't need to know everything about the Beasts Pirates.
The area he was in charge of had nothing to do with those things, and Bazel didn't intend to go on and explain the future development trend of the Beast Pirates to everyone.
A dedicated person is responsible for this project.
"Starting from Takamagahara and ending at the same point, we will build an air route that leads to the land of giants, Elbaf."
"As long as the roads between the two countries are opened, our economy will be able to develop quickly."
"At that point, if we can stabilize the situation, the speed at which we can solve other problems will increase exponentially."
Tom nodded as if he understood: "That makes sense. As long as the beginning can be resolved smoothly, there's no need to worry too much about the subsequent construction issues."
After chatting with Tom for a while, Bazel remembered his business.
"Abel, let's go to the left-hand route and inform Hanafza on the next ship to follow Babanuki's ship."
Without asking why, Jin first ordered his pirate subordinates to do as instructed, and then cast a questioning glance at them.
"Haven't you heard Kaido mention this area?"
"Mr. Kaido?" He was stunned. "What did he say?"
"Actually, it can't really be considered Kaido's observation; he overheard it while the Rocks Pirates were mopping the floor."
"Rocks D. Xebec, you know this great pirate, right?"

Chi nodded in agreement.
"Kaido and I were drinking the other day when he talked about his former captain."
"The Rocks Pirates are members who came together for treasure and profit, and the frequency of their internal fighting is even higher than their battles with enemies."
And their captain, Rocks, I heard from Kaido that his idol is Davy Jones.
"David Jones?"
Compared to Jhin's confusion, Tom the fishman who was listening in took over the conversation.
"I have heard of this person, no, it's more accurate to say he's a character from a legend than a person."
"Davy Jones, according to legend, is a great pirate who was cursed by a demon and has lived in the sea all his life."
"He would steal all the treasures and ships that sank to the bottom of the sea and lock them in Davy Jones' safe."
"There used to be a really popular pirate game called [Davy Back Fight], have you ever heard of it?"
Chi shook his head, while Bazel nodded in response.
"I've heard of this game; it's a game that circulated in a pirate amusement park a long time ago."
"A game started by some powerful pirates vying for better crew members from others, the so-called [Davy Back]..."
"Fight" is actually a battle to recruit players.
"The match is decided in three sets, and the loser must swear an oath to 'Davy Jones' to be loyal to the winner for life."
"If the victors look down on those pirates, they will seize the pirate flag, which is considered the lifeblood of the ship. It's a cruel game where 'comrades' and 'dignity' are at stake."
"And this game only has 3 rules."
1. What you lose in DavyBackFight must be won back in the DavyBackFight game;
2. The loser's crew members chosen by the winner must immediately swear allegiance to the enemy captain;
3. The flags taken from the losers will never be flown again.
"Anyone who violates these three rules will be considered a disgrace to the pirates and sent to Davy Jones' safe."
"Of course,"
Bazel shrugged:
"That's how the story goes, but so far no one has revealed what Davy Jones looks like or which sea area he lives in."
"At least no living person can say what he looks like."
"So that's the story!"
Olga jumped onto her shoulder, showing no shame whatsoever for eavesdropping.
"Jin, you'd better keep a close eye on me, I'm a super rare partner!"
Chi retorted expressionlessly, "Indeed rare, a little old lady who has lived for over two hundred years."
"Two hundred years"
"Little old woman—"
Olga squinted, her lips twitched, and she gripped the leather mask tightly with her small hands, pulling hard.
"Don't say unnecessary things next time; it makes you seem like you have low emotional intelligence!"
The police officer asked Bazel, "Bazel, do I have very low emotional intelligence?"
"Emotional intelligence?"
Bazel feigned confusion: "When did you get that kind of thing?"
"Aren't you just a stubborn, tight-fisted old man who only knows about fighting and Mr. Kaido?"
Stubborn, stingy?
The flames behind the explosion suddenly surged.
"You better apologize to me, you bastard!"
"I'm not some stubborn miser! Apologize now, or today will be the day you call me 'Big Brother'!"
"ha?"
Bazel rolled up his sleeves:
"You're getting more and more disrespectful, which suits me just fine!"
"Olga, get the first-aid kit ready. I'm going to end Jhin's rebellious adolescence early today!"
