Chapter 128: Pure Gold
"Pure gold? Is that the legendary pure gold that can give people eternal life?" Brooke couldn't help but widen his eyes. Even he didn't expect that the secret treasure mentioned in today's meeting turned out to be this legendary treasure.
"There is only some information and it has not been confirmed yet. However, according to the information given by the captain, the lantern fish that was witnessed is probably the giant island-eating fish that ate Alchemy back then."
Beilin looked at the few people and said calmly.
"But does something like pure gold really exist? After all, something that can make people immortal always sounds a bit strange."
Simon said with a suspicious look on his face.
Pure gold was widely spread among the world after Alchemy disappeared. You must know that the information that pure gold can make people live forever is just from an unknown source. After all, pirates and treasures disappear.
Islands and huge monsters are almost the four major elements of maritime legends.
"The legend of pure gold is indeed spread, but the island Alchemy, where pure gold was extracted, disappeared more than a hundred years ago. No one knows whether this rumor is true or false. After all, when I went to sea, there was
Many people still believe that as long as they find the missing Alchemy, they can gain eternal life.
Of course I've never heard of anyone finding solid gold in all this time, yo ho ho ho ho ho."
Brooke also added on the side.
Katie, who was sitting at the end, tried her best to act like an adult and muttered, "Furthermore, pure gold is said to give humans eternal life, but according to the principle of equivalent exchange, there must be something unknown about this eternal life.
Disadvantages of.”
"It's really hard to say. It's been too long ago, and the relevant research data has not been circulated at all, so no one knows the principle of this legendary metal that gives humans immortality."
Beilin also added.
"Oh, oh, oh, eternal life is really a tempting statement."
The skeletal Brooke said with a smile, and everyone also cast contemptuous glances at the Brooke of Versailles. After all, the guy who ate the underworld fruit probably didn't even know when he would die.
At this moment, the door of the conference room was opened, and then a man with a height of 1.9 meters, messy long hair, and full of explosive power hidden under his clothes walked in.
"Pure gold is actually not that complicated. It just extracts the essence from a large amount of gold through special means, and adds other materials. It relies on its metallic inertness to affect the wearer's body and reduce the rate of cell division in the body.
, thereby achieving the goal of eternal life.
The price you have to pay is that when you wear pure gold jewelry, it will be difficult to improve your strength."
"captain!"
Seeing the figure coming in, everyone in the conference room stood up and said excitedly.
It can be said that Nicholas chose to retreat directly after the battle of Cake Island. He usually spends most of the year practicing at the highest level of Inazuma Island, which is full of thunder and lightning.
Unexpectedly, I took the initiative to attend the meeting of the Free Pirates today.
And everyone has no complaints about this. After all, for the pirates in the new world, the captain's strength is the best deterrent. The stronger the captain's strength, the more transcendent the pirate group's status.
"Well, everyone, please sit down."
Nicholas sat on the main seat and looked at everyone and said.
"However, this kind of immortality is more of a pseudo-immortality. After all, the number of cell divisions in a person's life is limited. Although pure gold can slow down this process, he will eventually die."
As the ship's manager, chief steward and ship's doctor, Belin obviously has a say.
Hearing Beilin's words, Simon said with disdain: "It turns out it's not immortality. I thought that pure gold could really make people immortal. If so, I might as well hope that Brooke will bear fruit before I die.
Awakening, when the time comes for me to die, you can bring me directly out of the underworld."
"Oh ho ho ho, don't worry I will definitely work hard. When the time comes, we will sail together with our skeleton bodies."
"don't want!"
As soon as Brooke finished speaking, Belin and Katie refused in unison, saying that it would be better for girls to become skeletons than to kill them directly.
"So Captain, are we going to catch that giant lantern fish?"
Katie looked at Nicholas expectantly. After all, the liver of lantern fish is a delicacy after cooking, especially the huge lantern fish. The ingredients on it are definitely more delicious.
"But how to catch it? The kind of monster that can swallow up an island. To catch him, the bait must be very big, right?"
Katie was a little dumbfounded when she thought about the size of the giant lantern fish. The fishing method of the giant lantern fish that can swallow islands must be different from other fish.
"It's not that troublesome. According to my guess, the reason why the giant lantern fish swallowed Alchemy was probably attracted by the light of pure gold. Therefore, if enough gold is obtained, it is possible to take that lantern away.
The fish are attracted."
"gold?"
"That's right."
"But there is one more thing. We must find the approximate range of the lantern fish. Otherwise, no matter how dazzling the light is, it will be impossible to draw it out across a sea."
...
A few days later, in a sea area, the water began to violently roll and surge.
All the pirates were panicked and reluctantly looked down.
However, this sight almost scared them out of their wits.
At this time, a huge black shadow actually appeared under the sea.
This terrifying size is even bigger than the large sea kings, and their ships are as small as shrimps compared to this behemoth.
"What kind of monster is this? Help!"
"Run away!"
"Send a message to Sir Simon and the others quickly!"
Then, the huge shadow gradually emerged from the sea. Even the body exposed on the sea was as big as a medium-sized island.
Everyone finally saw it clearly, it was a giant lantern fish.
What's even more weird is that there is a dazzling light shining in its lantern.
At the same time, a huge ship came speeding directly from a distance. Even because of the super speed, it looked as if the sea was divided from a distance.
The five people and one skeleton on the deck were not at all afraid of this monster that was almost as big as a medium-sized island.
"What an amazing big guy." Westad held the ax in his hand slightly, as if he was using the ax to kill this huge creature. After all, for those who use knives or axes, facing such a big monster is difficult.
Guys always want to chop a few times.
"It's difficult to cook a fish of this size." Katie, who was standing next to Westad with a pair of knives on her waist, said with a distressed look on her face.
After all, it is very inconvenient to cut with such a large body even with flying slashes.
As he spoke, the huge lantern fish with dazzling light shining above its head... finally opened its huge mouth to swallow the entire sea in one gulp.
The King of the Sea also accelerated instantly and flew towards the mouth of the giant lantern fish.
For Nicholas and the others, there is not much danger even if they are swallowed.
As for the pirates who were responsible for searching for the lantern fish, after some thinking, few of them chose to escape from the devouring range of the giant lantern fish.
Obviously seeing the actions of Nicholas and the others, these people also realized that there was something terrible inside this lantern fish.
