Chapter 461 - 463

The atmosphere between Hancock and Robin, who were standing at this moment on the left and right slightly behind Yeruashi, was surprisingly harmonious.

They felt an extraordinary peace and tranquility, basking in the bright rays of the sun, which poured through the parted fog of the Florian Triangle.

Robin and Hancock were thinking the same thing, looking at the figure of Yeruashi, dressed in a loose blue kimono.

"I was very lucky to meet this person."

After meeting Yeruashi, there was nothing happier for Robin and Hancock than gradually reducing the distance between them, from just acquaintances, up to close people.

"What are you thinking about?"

Yeruashi turned his head and smiled at Robin and Hancock.

He didn't think that they could still be shocked by his strength.

Hancock and Robin gradually calmed their emotions, looking at Yeruashi's soft and kind smile, but he suddenly thought of something when they opened their mouths to answer.

"Ah, I almost forgot..."

Yeruashi looked away from Robin and Hancock, "I'll be back soon."

Phew!!

With these words, Yeruashi's figure blurred and disappeared from the deck of the ship.

After a while, a black spatial passage appeared in the air, from which Yeruashi came out.

Hancock and Robin turned their heads, looking questioningly into each other's eyes.

They were very interested in what Yeruashi had just done in the Florian Triangle.

They immediately noticed the unknown sword in Yeruashi's hands, which vaguely seemed very unusual.

"This is..."

Robin said hesitantly.

Yeruashi pulled out the sword, taking a quick glance at its black blade, and immediately returned it back to the scabbard: "This is the national treasure of the Country of Vano, the Black Sword of Susui. Even before we arrived in the Country of Vano, Gekko Moriya visited there and stole Susui along with Ryuma's body, I just decided to return the sword to where it belongs."

"So this is Meito Susui..."

Robin looked thoughtfully at the Shusui in Yeruashi's hands.

She was no stranger to this sword, because the "Dragon Slayer" Shimotsuki Ryuma and his meito Susui, occupy a special place in the history of the Country of Vano.

Shimotsuki Ryuma is not only an important figure in the history of the Country of Vano, but also a very prominent figure in the entire world history, because in the past he was famous not only for being able to easily kill a real dragon with one swing of his sword...

This man managed to stop an attempt by the forces of the World Government to invade the Country of Vano!

Whether it's SP-0 or the strongest sentinels of that era...none of them managed to defeat the legendary 'Dragon Slayer' Ryuma and invade the closed Country of Vano!

"Hmm...There is still an extremely strong will and intention of the owner in Susui."

Yeruashi smiled as he returned to the cabin: "If Ryuma were not the guardian of the closed Country of Vano, but a free man floating on the expanses of the sea, it would probably not be difficult for him to get the title of the Greatest Swordsman in the World of that era, such a swordsman deserves a little respect."

The last words could have been considered rude if any other person had been in Yeruashi's place, but in his performance, they seemed completely natural and fair.

According to Hancock and Robin, Yeruashi had every right to say something like that, because there were very few people in the whole world who could even get such recognition from him.

"I'll go cook."

Hancock followed Yeruashi into the cabins.

Around the same time.

In a gloomy castle located on a giant ship Thriller Bark, sailing in one of the parts of the split Florian Triangle.

"What happened?!"

Gekko Moriya shouted irritably as he walked along the corridor of the gloomy castle.

He was enjoying a calm and pleasant sleep, but suddenly he was woken up by some loud movement.

One of the Shichibukai was in an extremely bad mood.

Soon he came out into a spacious courtyard, in the middle of which lay a variety of zombies.

The 'Ghost Princess' Perona and the 'Gravedigger' Absalom, members of the' Mystical Four', stood motionless at the edge of the courtyard.

They were panting and sweating coldly, unable to move away from the shock.

"What the hell is going on? Has there really been an invasion?!"

Gekko Moriya, who was surrounded by black bats, looked gloomily at Absalom.

Absalom looked at Moria and said tensely, with difficulty restoring calm: "Captain Moria...the body of the zombie general Ryuma is destroyed, and his meito is stolen..."

Moriya angrily exclaimed, " What?! Who dared?! Where is that bastard? He will have to pay a bitter price for destroying my zombie general, believe me!"

Absalom's eyes filled with horror: "If...if I'm not mistaken, it was...One of the Heroes of the New World, a Traveler!!"

Absolute silence reigned.

Moriya froze in place, startled.

Perona flew up to Moria and whispered with a tremor in her voice: "I think so too...that it was him..."

After a few seconds, Moriya clenched his fist: "Dare to destroy my zombie general, damn Traveler...it's a pity that he has already escaped, but nothing...nothing...The next time we meet, I will definitely make him suffer!"

Perona narrowed her eyes, looking at Moria: "Horo-horo-horo, Captain Moria..."

Moriya exclaimed irritably: "What?!"

Perona whispered softly: "You're actually afraid of him too, aren't you..."

Moriya's eyes bulged: "Am I afraid?! How dare you even think of such a thing! Ki-shi-shi-shi..."

Perona covered her mouth and slowly turned her head to look at Absalom, who was standing nearby.

They both noticed that Moriya was also trembling, but they obediently chose to remain silent.

Only after Moriya returned to the castle, they breathed a sigh of relief and turned their heads, looking into each other's eyes with understanding.

They were well aware of why their captain was so afraid of the Traveler.

After all, the Traveler was the person who killed the Kaido Beast, at the hands of which Moriya had suffered crushing defeats in the past!

In addition, he is a Hero of the New World and one of the scariest people in the world!!

Perona gradually came to her senses and looked lost into the distance, recalling the scenes of what had happened earlier: "But...but, he is very beautiful..."

The incident in the waters of the Florian Triangle was only a minor episode.

Ohara calmly crossed the waters of the Florian Triangle, continuing the journey to the end of the first half of the Grand Line.

Of course, Yeruashi's ship was spotted by the Marine Patrol's intelligence network, but they did nothing, as if there were no reports of Ohara's appearance at all.

Ohara sailed unhindered through two islands, reaching the final point of the first half of the Grand Line-the Sabaodi Archipelago.

"Are you going to stop by Reilly's?"

Robin, who was standing on the edge of the deck next to Yeruashi, turned her head and asked.

Yeruashi shook his head: "We'll see Reilly next time, and now let's go straight to Fishman Island, I've been wanting to visit there for a very long time."

"Good."

Robin nodded.

Yeruashi gently stamped his foot on the deck of the ship.

With this movement, the ship was enveloped by an invisible force and began to gradually sink under the water.

Seawater, endowed with life, played the role of covering and was responsible for maneuvering the ship under water.

Yeruashi lowered his hands when the entire ship was wrapped in revived water, and began to calmly watch Ohara sink to the bottom of the deep sea.

As they sank, the atmosphere around them gradually turned from blue to dark, until it became completely black.

After a while.

In the pitch darkness, the light appeared again.

In the distance, a fabulous island could be seen suspended above the bottom of the deep sea, inside a huge transparent bubble.

The Island of Fishmen!
