Chapter 255 I Really Just Want to Travel
Zhang Da also said: "If you really want to do something, then you can only try to report to the navy."
Zeole was stunned: "Navy?"
"Yes." Zhang Da also confirmed, "When ordinary people encounter pirates, isn't the first thing they think of to take refuge and then report to the navy? For a big scene like this, we can only hope that the navy has some special abilities or some black technology."
Zeole said: "That's true, but I didn't expect that such powerful people like the benefactors would actually rely on the navy."
"It's as if we're not law-abiding citizens. We're a legal tour group." Zhang Da also took out a Den Den Mushi and said, "Let me make the call. I have someone above me~"
Ye Yan reminded: "I think we should go to another place. This place is too conspicuous. If they are here for these animals, they should send people to explore soon."
The Golden Lions have been hiding for nearly ten years. If they were discovered, they would definitely not let them go easily.
"That's right." Zhang Da also said to the Qilin Lion, "Tell the animals that are willing to wait for the navy to rescue them to find a place to hide, and those who don't trust them should hurry up and find a way to leave, right?"
The Qilin lion nodded helplessly and let out a low growl. The animals looked at each other and then scattered away. It was like a great migration of beasts, but the scene at this time seemed very sad.
"Shark Chili, you, Mengmeng, and Brooke go ahead and hide our boat. Then find the spare canvas and see if you can make a big parachute. If it's not enough... take down the sail." Zhang Da also put Tom on Shark Chili's head, "Take Tom with you."
Zhang Da didn't plan to rely entirely on the navy. With Tom, a top tailor, he would be able to sew a parachute together. If that didn't work, he could just ask Tom to sew it on.
"Leave it to me." Shark Chili struggled to reach out and hold Tom above his head, and quickly ran towards where the Amber was docked.
Shark Chili ran so fast that Tom's head didn't have time to react and was left there. It took him a while to bounce back.
"Boss, you guys should be careful too."
"Be careful, Mr. Tatsuya."
Rui Mengmeng and Brooke also turned around and ran away.
"Should we ask the flag monsters to go and see what's going on on the other islands?" Zhang Da also noticed that the island under his feet had stopped rising and was floating between a dozen islands. The islands were scattered at different heights, but they all surrounded the largest one in the middle, which was probably the base camp of the Golden Lion.
Ye Yan said, "I've already been there. Sui Feng Er just discovered a village on the nearest island. We can confirm that there are people in it, and they don't look like they're doing well. We're still investigating the details."
"It's over, this is the worst case scenario. Now I can't even run away with peace of mind." Zhang Da also had a bitter face and dialed the Den Den Mushi number of Lieutenant General Gion while walking.
Ye Yan said: "Look at the bright side. If there are only animals, the navy will probably attack regardless of casualties. If there are a lot of civilians, they will at least think of ways to rescue them?"
Bloopers, bloopers, bloopers…
The voice of Den Den Mushi sounded, and Zhang Da also said: "It depends on the person. If the person who comes is the vice admiral codenamed Akainu..."
Kacha, at this time, the Den Den Mushi was connected, and Vice Admiral Gion's voice rang out: "Tatsuya-chan? I haven't seen you for more than ten days... Did Liya-chan miss me?"
Zhang Da didn't respond to her words and said directly: "Lieutenant General Gion, this time we are here to ask for help. We have encountered a tough guy."
"Even you are asking for help, who is the enemy?" Lieutenant General Gion's tone became serious.
"Golden Lion."
"..." The other party was silent for a moment, "Golden Lion!? Is it that golden lion?"
" Yes, Shiki the Golden Lion who was once as famous as Roger and Whitebeard."
There was a noisy discussion coming from the opposite side, and the faint sound of chairs rubbing against the ground.
A few seconds later, it seemed that Vice Admiral Tsuru took over the microphone and asked, "Brother Tatsuya, how are you doing now? Where are you? Can you tell me the situation?"
"Vice Admiral Tsuru? You're here too." Zhang Da felt much more at ease. This old lady gave him the impression that she was the most reliable person in the entire naval headquarters.
“We haven’t been discovered yet. We were originally on Crown Island, commonly known as Rare Beast Island, which is on the straight route from Water Seven to Alabasta. But because of the ability of the Golden Lion, the entire island floated high into the sky.
There are more than a dozen other islands floating in the same manner. They are all currently moving sideways. Their destinations are unclear, but what is certain is that at least one of them is inhabited by civilians."
"That means we can't determine your current location." With so many islands floating in the air, it's basically confirmed that it's the Golden Lion. Vice Admiral Tsuru said, "Then I'll have the Intelligence Department use the Den Den Mushi signal to determine your location, okay?"
Zhang Da also said: "No problem, do you need my cooperation?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru said, "Just don't hang up. If there is a chance to evacuate, please leave the Den Den Mushi behind."
"Hey, you don't encourage us to stay?"
"Of course, you are civilians and deserve our protection. I am in no position to ask you to stay or fight."
Zhang Da also suspected that Vice Admiral He was trying to please them, but he also felt that she was speaking from the bottom of her heart: "I understand. We will try to remain hidden and provide as much information as possible. Please find a way to protect these islands."
"I'll let Gion keep in touch with you and rush to rescue you as soon as possible." After saying this, Vice Admiral Tsuru handed the Den Den Mushi to Vice Admiral Gion and immediately gave instructions to the others.
"Tatsuya-chan, are you really going on a trip?" Lieutenant General Gion asked quietly, "It's only been over a month since we set out, and the troubles we've encountered are bigger and bigger."
"Do you think I want to? I just want to come out to eat and have fun. If I'm short of money, I might catch one or two pirates or open a tavern for a few days to earn some money for the trip. But I didn't expect these pirates to always come around me." Zhang Da also complained, "It was so chaotic over there just now, are you having a party?"
"Yes, but thanks to you, I'm the only one left now. I was very busy with the matter of a Shichibukai a few days ago, and then I took over the cadres of the Donquixote Pirates and discussed the battle plan for a long time. I finally have some free time, and now it's Golden Lion... Hey, Tatsuya-chan, are you really not deliberately taking revenge on me by making me work overtime?"
"Ha, how is that possible? I don't want to get involved in any of this trouble if I can help it."
"By the way, you mentioned Vice Admiral Sakaski at the beginning. What happened to him?"
"..." Zhang Da also thought about it and whispered, "Unless it is absolutely necessary, can we not let that person get involved in this matter?"
"Why?"
"I always feel that if he comes, he might just spew out a lot of magma and smash these islands into slag. Then the angry golden lion will beat him up and float away. I won't know who to help at that time."
"Is this the image of Vice Admiral Sakaski in your minds?" Vice Admiral Gion had a headache. She couldn't help with this matter because there was indeed a case where a pirate took hostages and killed Sakaski along with the hostages.
Zhang Da also said: "Please don't mind me. I am not qualified to judge a navy man who has wiped out countless pirates. Maybe he has his considerations, but I just don't want such a thing to happen to me."
