This sudden scene made the shop owner's jaw drop in shock, his whole body shaking, and cold sweat pouring down his face.
"Help!"
With a scream, he dashed out of the shop like a phantom, disappearing as if he had seen something truly terrifying.
Jason and the other two glanced at him and ignored him. He was useless anyway.
All his companions were eliminated in an instant, and he was caught by the white beret captain, who had a sword pressed to his neck.
But he wasn't panicked; instead, he had a vicious expression on his face:
"You're so stupid, you dare to resist us! You really don't care about life and death! The Almighty God will definitely punish you! Prepare to die without a burial place!"
"I think you can't tell who's in control of the situation now!"
The tone was arrogant, which made Jason extremely unhappy. He punched him in the stomach, and while he was bending over in pain, Jason hit him on the back with an elbow, causing the white beret captain to open his mouth wide in pain, unable to utter a single word.
After hitting him, Jason still felt unsatisfied, so he turned to Robin for advice.
"He's so annoying! I really want to kill him!"
"Well, be patient for now! Ask questions before killing!"
"Oh! Then I'll beat him up first, he's driving me mad!"
Then he punched and kicked him again, beating the captain's face until it was a mess, to the point where he didn't even know how many teeth he'd lost.
"Baby Robin, he's all yours! Ask away!"
Robin took a step forward and squatted in front of the captain's battered face.
"Have you seen the historical text on your Sky Island? It's a square stone! There are unknown characters engraved on it, and there's also your god. What kind of existence is that?"
The captain, lying on the ground, was breathing heavily, and after a while, he spoke with difficulty.
"Hey, hey hey, you will definitely die miserably! Foolish trash! The Almighty God and the priests will definitely kill you all!"
Jason: ???
You're really not afraid of death! Just answer what you're asked, why are you doing this?
"It seems you still don't understand the situation!"
With a "shua," the sword severed his entire arm at the shoulder, and Jason stepped on his mouth before he could scream, leaving him to only stare and groan.
No need to think about it now—he had lost all his teeth.
"Are you awake now? We don't know what will happen to us, but even if your Almighty God comes, I can kill you, then cut you into pieces, and throw you into the sea to feed the fish!"
Most people fear death, and this so-called captain was no exception. Faced with the choice between life and death, he still compromised.
"God is everywhere, but God and the priests will not come here. He will wait for the disobedient to step onto Apayado, the forbidden place, and then the Almighty God and the priests will descend. If you meet them, I will personally impose sanctions!"
"Oh! What you say sounds impressive. Someone who doesn't know might actually be fooled by you!"
Hearing that, the captain froze.
"This is definitely not to scare you. When God's sanctions come down, you'll realize how ignorant you are now!"
"Don't tell me those things that may or may not exist. Have you ever seen this in the historical text?"
Jason slapped him twice again.
"I don't know, but if it exists, it's in Apayado, where God resides."
"Where is Apayado?"
The other party was stunned—so, you're scared after all? Do you want to find out where God's holy place is and then stay away?
Ha! Impossible!
Jason didn't know what was running through his mind. If he had known, he would have asked, "Why do you think I'm scared? Do I want to go there?"
"God already knows everything that happened here and will soon impose sanctions, so even if you want to escape now, it's useless! But I might as well tell you that Apayado is next to this island. Go east and pass through the clouds. You'll get there if you follow the path!"
Jason nodded with satisfaction and looked at Robin. Robin indicated that she had finished asking and there was nothing else to know.
After Robin expressed her stance, Jason thought for a moment and decided not to kill the so-called captain. After all, he had already beaten him and severed one of his arms. He was angry enough and wanted to spare his life.
After all, he was not a murderous devil.
Then the two of them left the shop and came to the street. The once-bustling street was now deserted because the two, Jason and Robin, were considered blasphemers.
There had been many such individuals in the past, but their outcomes were never good. Even the natives would instinctively avoid those who were about to be punished by God.
"Um?"
Just as the two were about to head back, Jason suddenly looked up at the sky.
"What's wrong?"
"Something's coming!"
The corners of Jason's mouth curled up slightly. He could sense an attack from such a distance. This was indeed one of the strongest Logia Devil Fruits!
"What?"
Robin also looked up at the sky, but saw nothing. Suddenly, Jason picked Robin up and dashed to the side.
At the same time, two massive bolts of lightning struck down from the sky—one hitting the spot where Jason and Robin had been standing, and the other hitting the shop they had just left.
Jason managed to dodge the attack, but the captain of the white beret inside had no chance of escape, screaming in agony as he was struck.
After Jason and Robin escaped, they heard the screams from inside and took a moment to glance back.
Wow, how miserable! His entire body was charred black!
"Is this the sanction delivered by that god?"
Robin was a bit confused. His ability to manipulate lightning was strange. She had a suspicion in her mind but wasn't certain.
"Yes, don't worry, it's just a Logia Devil Fruit user. These natives have never heard of it."
"Is that really the case?"
(The people here on Sky Island are peculiar. They know about Devil Fruits and that Luffy's power is Paramecia, yet they still firmly believe that Enel is a god! What a big deception!)
...
On the other side, Enel was sitting on his sofa with a look of surprise, then he relaxed.
"Did you dodge it? Are you also a user of the Heart Network? This is getting more interesting, but it doesn't matter—we'll settle it here soon!"
Jason and Robin left the shop and headed back to the Devil moored at Angel Beach. Countless residents were watching them from the shadows along the way.
"Jason, look! The Merry!"
"Yeah! I saw it! It seems that Luffy and the others are already here!"
"But where are they?"
"I don't know! Just wait a while!"
"Um!"
At this time, Luffy and the others were visiting Conis's house. They had also seen the Devil when they arrived. Even Nami, Chopper, and Usopp boarded the ship to look for it excitedly. After all, in their hearts, it would be safest to stay with Jason.
Then they sadly discovered that Jason and the two had gone somewhere, and a group of people playing on the beach met Conis, who was walking a fox on the sand.
They had a friendly conversation with Conis and her daughter and were invited to their home as guests!
Jason and Robin got on the boat again. Jason felt a little hungry. He hadn't eaten anything since getting up in the morning! He was ready to eat something.
Although Robin's cooking skills were not bad, they were not as good as Jason's, so Jason usually did the cooking, and it was the same now.
Jason went to the cabin to get himself a meal, while Robin sat under the parasol again and started reading.
"Robin!"
"Um?"
Robin, who was reading a book, heard someone shouting. She closed the book and looked around. The sound seemed to come from quite far away, but she saw no one as far as she could see.
"Here, here!"
Robin stood up, and Jason couldn't help but walk out of the kitchen.
Then at a glance, they saw Luffy and Usopp standing at the window of the house in the distance, waving to them.
"It must be them. In just a short while, they've already gone to someone's house to eat and drink! And I still have to cook for myself!"
"Hahaha!"
Robin was teased by Jason and laughed happily, and then Jason ran back into the kitchen! Luffy and the others were a little excited to see Jason and Robin again.
"Hey! Robin! The food here is super good! Do you want to come up and try it?"
"No need! Jason is already cooking!"
After hearing this, Luffy didn't insist but turned around and continued to grab food with Usopp and the others!
Robin also sat back on the beach chair, then felt something was wrong, as if the boat was moving?
Jason was adding seasonings in the kitchen when he suddenly felt the whole ship shaking! His hand slipped, pouring half of the jar of salt into the pot.
Jason: @#%×#
He hit the door with a "bang" sound, wanting to see who the blind fool was. The empty fish he finally caught was ruined! He also wanted to try it with Baby Robin!
As for whether the commotion was caused by Robin, he never thought about it. Baby Robin has always been synonymous with gentleness and tranquility, okay! Occasionally, she's just a little dark! There would never be such a big commotion all of a sudden. Unless there was danger.
But if there was danger, he would have discovered it long ago!
At this time, Robin also stood up from the beach chair and leaned on the side of the boat, looking down!
"What happened!"
"There's a big shrimp!"
"Um?"
Jason walked quickly to Robin, and there it was! A shrimp bigger than an Express Shrimp was lifting the Devil!
"Uh! Is this food automatically delivered to your door?"
Robin: ...Why do you think of eating first?
"Could this be a vehicle like the previous Express Shrimp? It's quite similar! It's just a bit bigger and much darker in color!"
While they were talking, the entire boat was carried on the shrimp's back, and then it started to rush out with a crash.
"Emmmm, it's confirmed, this is the kind of Express Shrimp!"
"It seems so!"
Jason was puzzled: "Where is this taking us?"
"It should be to where the god is!"
"Huh? How do you know?"
"Isn't there something written on its head?"
(̿▀̿ ̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿ ̿)
Jason stuck his head out and took a look, his face darkened. Sure enough, the three characters GOD were engraved on top of the shrimp's head.
Just after the Devil rushed out, a man wearing a white beret appeared not far from Angel Beach.
"Hehehe! God's trial has begun, take the super Express Shrimp I specially called for! Go and accept the sanction of the Almighty God!"
Luffy and the others, who were at Conis's house, were having a good meal! Then they heard Chopper yelling!
"Wow! Luffy! Jason and the others are gone!"
"Huh? How is it possible? He won't leave without us?"
Luffy slurred as he ate.
"It is true!"
Luffy: "Let's see! Wow! They really set off. Where are they going?"
Usopp: "No! Look! The ship is sailing backward!"
Luffy: "That's amazing! As expected of Jason, he can actually drive the ship upside down!"
Everyone: ...
"Idiot! How can a ship sail backward! They must not be doing it voluntarily!"
Zoro had a headache. This was not the first time he felt that his future with such a captain was very uncertain.
"Hey! Uncle! Do you know where they are going?"
Conis's father thought for a moment and shook his head, saying he didn't know either.
"Forget it! We'll find them later! Jason is very strong! Don't worry!"
After saying that, he turned around and started eating again. While eating, he asked about the Forbidden Land. Because Nami went somewhere unknown on the Powerba, Conis mentioned something about the Forbidden Land.
Luffy was super interested in this kind of thing. The more dangerous the place, the more he wanted to go.
On the other side, Jason and Robin just stood on the boat and watched.
"I think this shrimp will be useless when it arrives later. It caused my empty fish to get ruined, so I have to make up for it myself!"
"Hey, it's okay! I also want to taste the specialties of Sky Island."
The fate of the poor Super Express Shrimp was decided like this! It seemed determined to prevent Jason and Robin from jumping into the sea and escaping.
Behind them were many empty fish, all in various shapes, and all very big!
Jason: (✧∇✧)
"You not only sent me to find Enel, but you also gave me so many ingredients? How embarrassing!"
While saying sorry, he did not stop moving his hands. He ran into the cabin with a swipe and came out again, holding a large harpoon.
He took out a rope, tied one end to the bow of the boat, tied the other end to the harpoon, and held the harpoon in his hand.
"Watch me spear a fish for you!"
With a strange yell, he slapped his mouth with his hand a few times, then threw the harpoon, successfully hitting the head of an empty shark. As the rope stretched straight, the speed of the entire boat suddenly slowed, then returned to normal.
Super Express Shrimp: You are amazing, you are noble! If you want to eat fish, let me do it!
About ten minutes later, the Super Express Shrimp carried the Devil and entered an island.
"Is this Apayado?"
"That's right. Maybe it was just passing by."
Soon the Super Express Shrimp proved that it was not just passing by—the destination was right here!
Because they reached the end of the river, and there was an altar in the middle! After approaching the altar, the Express Shrimp jumped up and threw the Devil onto the altar.
After a roar and the creaking of the hull, the Devil landed firmly on top of the altar, and the Express Shrimp prepared to dive into the water and leave after dropping the Devil.
"Hold your horse and run! You've hurt me by throwing the boat! I'll eat your shrimp tail today!"
Jason pulled out his sword and shaved directly on the shrimp's head. He raised the sword and slashed. After a crisp sound, the Super Express Shrimp was dead!
Jason happily put away his sword and dragged the Super Express Shrimp ashore. He also pulled back the rope tied to the stern of the boat, which had an empty shark on the harpoon.
After casually handling two Sky Island specialties, he immediately started preparing for the barbecue. He had been hungry for a long time!
Robin condemned his behavior of preparing to cook something after seeing him perform a smooth operation.
"Jason?"
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Are we going to eat here?"
"Yes! Where else would we go?"
"What I mean is to be careful. This shrimp likely brought us here to face a trial. We don't know when someone will attack!"
"Don't worry, what do you have to worry about when I'm here? There's no shortage of food in the world! Besides, I'm already hungry! Let's eat until we're full!"
"oh!"
Robin had unconditional trust in Jason, and she was only reminding him to be careful.
Jason really wasn't worried. It's just Enel. In addition to his Devil Fruit ability, he could add Observation Haki at most. Though they were both top-notch, he didn't know Armament Haki!
And what about Jason himself?
A great swordsman, holding a supreme-grade sword, with mastery over all three Haki types, and perfect Marine Six Styles!
Just one Conqueror's Haki entanglement would make him invincible!
No matter how you look at it, the advantage is all on his side!
