Chapter 15
Carl was in no mood to care about so much. Finding a weapon that suits him was something that Carl had always wanted to do. Now that it was about to be realized, he was like a child who was about to see a new toy. Well, he was a child now.
Since Carl became a child, he still had the thinking mode of an adult in his previous life, but he didn't know if it was because his body became younger or what, but sometimes he would always have a childish mentality.
Half an hour later, Carl flew to the top of the mountain, which was the end of the steps.
There was a sword stuck on the top of the mountain, which was almost the same as the one that Carl had broken in the stone chamber.
Carl put the old woman down and reached out to pull out the sword.
It was slightly cold to the touch, and after a long time, it was like a piece of ice.
Carl pulled it out with all his strength. At this time, the whole sword body was filled with a faint green gas that penetrated into Carl's body. Carl felt that his eyes went black, and then the scenery in front of him changed from the top of the mountain to a sea of blood and corpses.
Under his feet was a road paved with the heads of tens of thousands of people. There was no flesh and blood on it, only skulls. A few hundred meters away from Carl, there was a sword stuck in the bones.
Carl wanted to grab the sword, but at this moment, green arms emerged from the gaps between the skeletons on the road.
The arms looked like real people, but without the blood color. Some were long, some were short, some were old, some were children.
Carl spread his wings and flew into the air, heading for the sword, but he could not fly to the sword's location, and even got farther and farther away.
Carl realized something was wrong and landed directly.:"Do you want me to activate the Conqueror's Haki?"
He then released the Conqueror's Haki directly, and those hands that tried to pull Carl into the endless abyss were directly shattered by Carl's Conqueror's Haki.
Seeing that this was effective, Carl increased the release of the Conqueror's Haki, and then rushed to the front of the sword.
Carl grasped the hilt of the sword, and the Seven Star Sword absorbed the Conqueror's Haki from Carl like a baby who just woke up and needed to absorb milk."Yo, I'll let you absorb enough."
Three colors of domineering are released. Although they are only elementary, they are already one in a billion. In the world of One Piece
, which child of five or six years old can awaken three colors of domineering at the same time.
Carl gritted his teeth and released the three colors of domineering, then spread his wings again, urging the fire in his body to burn [Flame Crown].
This time his momentum was stronger than before.
Although activating [Flame Crown] cannot strengthen domineering, under this circumstance it can put pressure on the sword spirit in the sword in terms of momentum.
After a while, the suction force in the sword gradually became weaker, and then dissipated.
He activated the armament color to cover the Seven Star Sword. Well, his armament color cannot cover it completely now, it can only cover the general sword body.
Holding the sword, Carl closed his eyes, and then felt himself falling into a vortex, and then opened his eyes to see that the surrounding scene had returned to its original appearance.
The original old woman looked at Carl waking up from it, and suddenly laughed,"Hahahaha, the old woman is finally liberated. I didn't expect that after so many generations of us guarding it for so many years, my generation actually found the sword master for the holy sword. I am free now."
After saying this, she looked at Karl with gratitude. Karl felt like a person who was seen as a scapegoat.
"Thank you for helping us take this sword, little brother. To show our gratitude, you can take any sword you like from our tribe."
"Granny, why are you so excited? Didn't you just say that this sword has been guarded by your tribe for generations? Why are you so happy when I get it?"
"Little brother, let me tell you the truth. This holy sword is said to protect us, but in fact it is imprisoning us. As long as this sword has not chosen a master, we will never be able to leave this island.
Every thirty or forty years, this sword will inexplicably attract some people to come. If they are recognized by this sword, it's fine. If they are not loved by others, they will go crazy and start killing crazily. Our tribe will be the first to be hurt, and we can't stop this from happening.
Later, a powerful wizard appeared in our tribe. He sealed a small part of the power of the Seven Star Sword in the fake one that you broke outside. Everyone who came here for no reason would pick up the fake sword.
If you can't even control a fake sword, let alone touch the real Seven Star Sword, and even if you pick up the fake Seven Star Sword and run away, it will be much weaker than the real one."
It turns out that the feeling of being treated as a scapegoat was not wrong. Although this sword has great power, there is no suitable owner to master it. And it itself longs for a master who can master all its power, so every once in a while it tempts some people to try the sword. During this period, it also destroyed the tribe that guarded it. No wonder it was the holy sword that did the thing but cut off its descendants. It's strange that the local tribe likes it.
"Old woman, didn't you just say that I would give your tribe's treasure to express my gratitude? Let's go and see it now."
Although he got the Seven Star Sword, he still felt at a disadvantage. Since the other party said that he would pay him, he naturally could not refuse.
If he knew that his dream was to become one of the Four Emperors and challenge the strong from all over the world.
Forming a pirate group during this period is a costly job. Now his biggest source of income is the treasure he stole from Buggy before, and then there is nothing. Although he has some relationship with Jin, and everyone knows that Kaido is the richest among the Four Emperors, although Oden has returned to Wano Country, Kaido certainly cannot mine seastone as he did after Oden's death. But just now Kaido is also in the top five of the wealth rankings in the New World.
Carl put the more than two-meter-long sword on his back, then grabbed the old woman's shoulder and flew back outside under her guidance.
Then he came to the warehouse of the old woman's tribe. It was called a warehouse, but there was nothing. The most was just some food, and the rest was either dried meat or animal skins.
Gold and silver treasures were pitifully few. At this time, Carl saw an orange-yellow fruit covered with beautiful patterns.
‘Flame-Flame Fruit, why is this fruit here?
The old woman said with a bit of pain:
"I know this fruit contains powerful power, but it is not something that we can get hold of, so I originally planned to sell it secretly after a few days and buy some supplies for the tribe. Since you like it, it belongs to you."
After hearing this, Carl showed an expression of"I see".
"Let me put it this way, mother-in-law. Although I took your holy sword to help you solve a big problem and the safety of the tribe, the Seven-Star Sword is indeed more beneficial than harmful to me. Now I feel a little embarrassed to take this fruit. I will buy it with the remaining money I have. After all, I think the conditions of your tribe are not very good."
"Besides, I don't like to take advantage of you. I know that my money is definitely not enough to buy this fruit. I see that you even have difficulty eating meat here, so I will go and hunt some prey for you as compensation."
Without waiting for a refusal, Carl shot directly into the sky. Because it was still dark at this time, Carl was not afraid of being seen by others. Now, only this old woman on the whole island knew that he could fly, but she didn't know that he was a special race. After all, not everyone knew about their race.
Half an hour later, Carl came back with two huge brown bears. The old woman led the men of the tribe to deal with the brown bears. After dealing with them, they began to cut off some of them and made jerky with salt, and the rest was directly stuck on the fire to roast. Soon, bursts of meat fragrance began to waft out.
The people of the tribe warmly invited Carl to have dinner together and wanted Carl to rest for a night, but Carl refused.
Carl gave the remaining Bailey to the old woman and left.
He was going to start preparing for his adventure.
