Chapter 226 Rayleigh Arrives
Chapter 226 Rayleigh Arrives
Six days later in the morning, Marigold finally brought Rayleigh to Shuixianxing Island.
"Lelisan!"
"Rayleigh! Long time no see!"
"Rayleigh!"
As soon as Rayleigh arrived at Shuixianxing Island, he received a warm welcome from the girls.
Everyone knows that Rayleigh has a close relationship with their Nine Snake Island, so everyone respects Rayleigh very much. After all, Nine Snake Island was protected by Rayleigh for a period of time in the past.
"Hahaha, girls, long time no see. Xia Qi and I are very pleased to see your achievements today!" Reilly was also very happy.
After all, the people in front of him are all juniors with whom he has a close relationship.
Of all the people present, Yamato was the only one who looked bewildered.
Since she didn't know Rayleigh, she naturally didn't understand why everyone was so enthusiastic about this old man.
As Yamato's best friend, Robin saw the doubts in her heart at a glance, and then began to tell her the origins between Rayleigh and Nine Snake Island.
"Hiss..."
"You are actually the legendary Pirate King Roger's vice-captain, Pluto Rayleigh!" After listening to Robin's introduction, Yamato stared at Rayleigh in front of him, his face full of astonishment.
Although Kaido's fame and prestige have surpassed Pluto Rayleigh in some aspects, there is one thing that Kaido cannot compare with him - Rayleigh has been to Raftel!
"Oh~?"
"You must be Kaido's daughter Yamato, right? It's really amazing..."
"I never expected that Kaido would have such a powerful daughter like you. To be honest, even I can't help but feel jealous." Rayleigh cast his gaze at Yamato, his sharp eyes revealing undisguised admiration.
Yamato is young, but he not only possesses the Conqueror's Haki, he has even mastered the advanced skill of Conqueror's Haki entanglement.
Coupled with her extremely powerful mythical beast devil fruit, her strength is far ahead of the younger generation.
"Kaido...Rayleigh! One day, I will surpass Kaido and become the strongest! Just wait and see!" Yamato said indignantly.
At this moment, Yamato's eyes were full of determination and confidence.
Although she is no longer as disgusted by being called Kaido's daughter as she was in the past, she still feels a little unhappy deep down every time she hears such a name.
"Hahahaha... I also firmly believe so. You will definitely be more powerful than Kaido in the future!" Rayleigh laughed out loud.
In fact, this is not just a word of comfort or encouragement, but comes from Raleigh's true thoughts deep in his heart.
Rayleigh was convinced.
Even if the current Yamato were to compete with Kaido of the same age back then, he would not necessarily be at a disadvantage.
"Okay, Rayleigh, go and have a rest first, and we'll coat the Perfume Serpent tomorrow." The empress waved her hand and interrupted the conversation in a calm tone.
There was no expression on her beautiful face, but she exuded an irresistible majesty.
However, Rayleigh did not immediately follow the Empress's advice.
He frowned, looked at the empress with a firm gaze, and said slowly: "There is no rush to rest for now, I think it is more important to coat the ship first.
That special ocean current white dragon does not appear at a specific time. We missed the first chance to encounter the white dragon because we trusted the hints in the historical text too much.
So, I want to finish the coating as soon as possible, so that I can feel more at ease. "
Hearing Rayleigh's words, Jellal couldn't help but frowned and asked in confusion: "Rayleigh, do you mean that the white dragon will appear in advance?"
Rayleigh nodded and replied seriously, "Yes, this is a fact we have verified.
Past experience tells us that we cannot rely solely on the records in historical texts and must be prepared to respond to changes at any time.”
The empress narrowed her eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.
After a moment, she said, "In that case, let's do as you say. Rayleigh, you are in charge of the coating. Please make sure everything is ready. We can't miss any more opportunities to meet the white dragon."
Everyone present felt a little surprised. What the empress said to Rayleigh was more like an order. What was more important was that Rayleigh didn't say much.
This made everyone feel very abnormal, because that was the Pirate King's right hand, the famous Rayleigh!
Rayleigh still had a gratified expression. He nodded and said, "Then take me to the pirate ship first."
The Queen looked at Marigorude and then nodded.
"Okay, sister, I'll take Rayleigh there right away." Marigold said he understood, and then immediately took Rayleigh to the beach. He knew the dangers of sailing in the sea, so he didn't dare to relax at all.
Marigorude couldn't help Rayleigh at all, but she still stayed with Rayleigh.
While Rayleigh was busy, the empress fell into deep thought.
Jellal also didn't understand what was going on between Boa Hancock and Rayleigh. When watching One Piece before, some people suspected that Boa Hancock was the child of Rayleigh and Shakey.
But no one has ever confirmed it, so he can't be sure.
"Okay, since Rayleigh said that the white dragon might appear earlier, then let's prepare for sailing as soon as possible!" Gerard said loudly.
"Okay Gerald."
"We know. There's nowhere to risk our lives now anyway."
"Finally we can go to Raftel!"
When talking about setting sail soon, the girls became excited.
They immediately ran into the villa and packed their things to prevent panic caused by the sudden arrival of Hailiu Bailong.
Rayleigh came well prepared this time. In addition to his coating tools, he also brought the bubble coral that is unique to Fishman Island. This is the thing that allows the Devil Fruit ability user to breathe freely in the sea and use the Devil Fruit ability.
It must be said that it was a good decision to ask Rayleigh to coat their pirate ship. An old man in the family is like a treasure.
With Bubble Coral, the Nine Snakes Pirates will feel much more at ease when riding on the White Dragon.
The coating of the pirate ship cannot be interrupted and must be completed in one go, so Rayleigh worked for two days to complete the coating of the Perfume Serpent.
That is, in the early morning of the second day after the coating was completed, the ocean currents near Shuixianxing Island changed.
Rayleigh judged that this was the arrival of the Sea Flow White Dragon ahead of schedule.
"Rayleigh, are you really not going with us?" Gerard asked Rayleigh at the beach of Shuixianxing Island.
"No, no, this is your adventure. It wouldn't look good for an old man like me to go with you. Come on, everyone!" Raleigh rejected everyone's invitation and waved to everyone with satisfaction.
In that case, the Queen would not force it. "Set sail! To Raftel!"
"Yes! Lady Snake!"
