Pirate's Steel Chain Finger

Chapter 39 Summer Dragon Festival

The great route cannot be speculated by common sense at all.

The seasons and weather here are fickle.The sun was shining brightly one second ago, and the next second there might be a few bolts of lightning in the sky!It was a crisp autumn weather yesterday, and today I woke up to find that the deck was covered in thick snow.

Perhaps without paying attention to the record pointer, your heading will be reversed 180 degrees.The sea here is like this, neither the wind nor the sky nor the waves nor the clouds can be trusted.The only thing that remains unchanged is the direction pointed by the record pointer.

…………

The weather today is spring, turning to summer.

The Beagle sailed out of the Twin Gorges at the foot of the Upside Down Mountains and headed towards the town of Tanar.

The sun was warm and the sea was calm.

Victor lay leisurely on the deck chair on the edge of the deck with a pillow in one hand, reading boredly with a popular novel about the Grand Line given by Kurokas.

Standing on the deck, Wu Hongji closed her eyes as if she was drawing her sword, trying to find the glimmer of inspiration she had when she was fighting the 'Demon Sword Maker' Fleming.

Perona sat on the top of the cabin, dangling her slender legs, humming a sinister song and gnawing on an apple. A large number of ghosts form a lookout team hovering over the ship, constantly monitoring changes in sea currents and weather.

Robin was sitting in the cabin, comparing the charts to sort out information about the islands on their route.

"Brother, turn right 47 degrees."

"Okay, turn right 47 degrees...complete."

From time to time, such short conversations were heard on board.Under Perona's excellent navigation skills and Victor's exquisite control, the Beagle gave full play to its speed advantage and headed towards Tanar Town at high speed.

Day 5 after sailing from Twin Gorges.

"Passengers of the Beagle, please bring your luggage and get ready to disembark. Tanar Town is here~"

Perona's cheerful voice spread throughout the Beagle.

Wu Hongji poked her head out from the kitchen: "So fast? Didn't it mean that the flight would take at least 8 to 10 days?"

Victor, who was adjusting the sails, smiled slightly: "The Beagle's speed is super first-class. If it weren't for the fact that I was new to the Grand Line and was not familiar with the climate and ocean currents, the trip could be shortened by about 1 day."

Wu Hongji looked at the sea level in the distance. The outline of Tanar Town could be vaguely seen directly in front of her: "Where are the Robins?"

"Hoohohohoho~ She went to get us pocket money."

As soon as the words fell, Robin walked out of the cabin with a suitcase, and said with a smile: "10 Berry pocket money per person."

"Oh yeah~~" Perona and Wu Hongji cheered.

Victor smiled: "Everyone, go change clothes and prepare to land."

Not long after, the Berger gradually approached the port of Tanar Town.

Today seems to be an important festival in Tanar Town.There are at least 50 large and small ships moored densely around the port, and colorful banners and festive pennants are hung on the pier. It is so crowded with people.

"Victor, do you need someone to guard the boat?" Wu Hongji changed into a red and black casual outfit, which was similar in color to Perona's gothic skirt.

"No need, just take your belongings and disembark."

After everyone disembarked and stood on the pier, Victor flicked his finger, and a 'guiding zipper' flew to the hull, and the power of the devil fruit was instantly transmitted to the Beagle and began to change its shape.

"Resin zipper capsule hotel."

Layers of resin zippers arch into a dome, completely covering the entire upper space of the hull without leaving any gaps.

The passing crowd stopped involuntarily, staring at this astonishing act in astonishment.It's not that they haven't seen Devil Fruits before, but it's very rare for them to be able to do this.

This can be regarded as an invisible demonstration and deterrence.

After completing the 'coating' for the Beagle, Victor hooked his index finger and retracted the 'guide zipper':

"Okay, let's set off. Everyone is free to move around and meet at the Beagle in the evening."

Perona and Wu Hongji walked happily together, and went to the famous tourist food street that Robin had explained to them before.And Robin followed Victor closely, wanting to secretly enjoy this rare private date.

Victor was also happy to go shopping with Robin. After all, he didn't have any travel tips for Tanar Town, but Robin knew better.

Unlike the Kingdom of Flowers, there are no special food stalls on the pier in Tanar Town, and most of them are merchant ships and civilian fishing boats trading or transporting goods.

The two walked straight across the pier, which ended in a huge arched porch festooned with festive pennants.

As we approach the round arched doorway, it's as if the volume dial is suddenly turned all the way up, and the hustle and bustle of people is rushing towards us.

The laughter of adults and children, the smell of food, the colorful ribbons dancing in the sky, and the bustling flow of people on the street!

Today is the most important festival of the year in Tanar Town - the Chalong Festival!

There are crowds on both sides of the street, some are local residents, but more are tourists from other places.Every stall exuding the aroma of food was full of people, and children were reluctant to leave for a long time around the stalls selling festive masks and souvenirs.

In the center of the road are beautifully-shaped paper models of giant dragons arranged in a long column. Each dragon has a different shape, but without exception they are all made with special care. The makers stood in front of their own works and happily exchanged their experiences with other makers, or explained them to the onlookers.

Victor and Robin were infected by the joyful holiday atmosphere and walked slowly along the street with smiles on their faces.

"The Summer Dragon Festival is an important festival inherited from ancient times in Tanar Town. At this time every year, almost every family in the town spontaneously builds paper models of giant dragons and puts them on the street for everyone to enjoy, to commemorate 300 years ago. The hero who saved the town of Tanal - 'Paper Dragon' Angie Wells."

The two were attracted by the smell of food and stopped in front of a stall. Taking advantage of the time in line, Robin began to explain the customs of Tanar Town to Victor.

"Oh? 'Paper Dragon'? It sounds amazing." After queuing for a while, it was Victor's turn.He spent 400 Berry on two snacks 'Binbin Prue' and handed one to Robin.

'Bimbin Prue', a grilled sausage with a unique flavor, is cut into even thick slices and placed in a carton, and then sprinkled with a lot of yellow mustard and grated cheese.If customers like spicy food, they can also take a thin chili from the stall for free. This is the special chili 'Mercy Green' in Tanar Town, which is amazingly spicy.

Robin thought about it, but still didn't take the chili pepper, and put a piece of cheese-covered sausage into his mouth with a bamboo stick, smiling so much that his eyes narrowed slightly.The two stood in the shade and slowly ate snacks. Robin continued to explain to Victor:

"'Paper Dragon' Angie Wells, a famous thief 300 years ago, is an origami man who ate the origami fruit. He can fold his body at will and transform into various paper model forms at will, and the paper on his body is also He can be as tough as a sword. In addition, after he successfully steals, he will leave behind a small animal origami. One day, his hometown of Tanar Town was invaded by the Penguin Pirates led by the great pirate "Emperor Penguin" Di Nabo. , something suddenly happened and even the garrisoned navy was raided and wiped out by this group of ferocious pirates. At the critical moment, the 'paper dragon' transformed into a paper bird and rushed back to his hometown alone, fighting against thousands of pirate legions alone. To the end of the battle, he He transformed into a huge paper dragon and defeated all the invaders, but he also died of exhaustion. In order to commemorate this prodigal hero, the people of Tanar Town designated that day as the 'Xia Long Festival'."

Victor was a little fascinated when he heard it: "One person fights against the army of thousands. Even after countless artistic processing, the battle scene at that time must be amazing... Is this 'Binbin Puru' delicious?"

"Well, delicious!" Robin nodded with a smile.

"Let's go, I saw a stall selling drinks in front of me." The two of them walked slowly towards the stall in front of them.

At this time, several men in black wearing holiday masks stopped in front of the two.The first man with a well-proportioned figure said slowly:

"Mafia Victor, 'The Chain', can we have a chat?"

Victor raised his eyebrows: "I don't like chatting with guys who hide their heads and show their tails."

Robin was a little panicked, and she subconsciously hid her body behind Victor.

Even if he didn't use the special information and domineering "Apocalypse" to identify them, Victor could guess the identities of the guys on the opposite side.

Cipher Pol, or CP for short, represents the intelligence agency of the World Government.
