Chapter 81: Permanent pointer

"Sun thief! There is a kind of come back!"

Ian patted the ship's side and shouted at the far away Pik pirate group in an attempt to open the mocking mode and let the guys turn back.

The consequence of this is that the ship of the Pique Pirates ran faster...

The sailors on the boat looked at each other and couldn't understand what Yi'an meant. As a caravan, the pirates ran and ran away. They still want the other party to run. How can they call the other party back?

Bill pulled Raian from behind and shook his head. "Forget it, you can't come back. Don't look at Pixar. The man is obese. He thinks he is really stupid. He can be a captain on a pirate ship." No one is stupid. Since he has made up his mind to escape, he can't be turned back by a few words. Your duty is to protect ships and goods. There is no need to be too entangled with the pirates."

By being so persuaded by Bill, Ian can only give up.

When Bill saw his persuasion effective, he finally showed a little smile and said: "Do not worry, there is nothing missing on the great route, but the most important thing is the pirate. You want to catch the pirates, and there are opportunities in the future."

Because the Rabs sneaked into the sea and crossed the hill, the remaining eleven merchant ships arrived safely, but because the flagship masts of Ian were damaged, all the cars of the caravan were docked. On the shore of the lighthouse of Gemini, prepare to wait for the flagship to repair the mast and then go on the road together.

It took a long time to repair the mast, but it also needed to stay here for at least one afternoon, so Ian followed Bill to the shore.

"Old man! Old man, are you here? I am coming again!" There is a house next to the lighthouse on the shore. When Bill goes ashore, he yells at the house, which makes Ian stunned: Bill will not It’s called the old man, wouldn’t it be Cokex?

Ian couldn’t remember the name of this person. It seems to be called this. Ian only remembers that he is the lighthouse guard tower of Gemini. However, shouldn’t the tower guard live in Rab’s belly? ?

As Bill shouted, the door of the house opened. A man in a short-sleeved shirt with a petal on his head came out. His nose was covered with glasses. It wasn't Cokes. He came out and watched. After a trip to Bill, he greeted him: "Bill, are you coming with the fleet?"

"Yes! This is the last time!" Bill Haha smiled and he was very happy to see his old friend.

Ian whispered to the front and asked Bill, "Do you know this old man?"

"Of course!" Bill nodded. "There are more times to go back and forth, and naturally I know."

When Ian and Bill spoke, they didn't notice that Cromker stared at his hat for a while, then suddenly asked Bill: "Who is this young man?"

"Oh! He is the most famous pirate hunter in our East China Sea!" Bill said quickly: "The thieves with the highest bounty in the East China Sea have been caught by him. This time we are also lucky, please come to him. Be a caravan guard."

Cromox nodded and said nothing. He moved a few chairs and let Ian sit down.

At this time, a voice sounded very carefully at the back, saying: "I... I can sit here, take a break?"

Ian looked back and found that this is Roland Gael. At this time, where is the last time he was on board? When I was attacked by the Pique Pirates, this guy had been hiding in the cabin and shivering, and he didn’t dare to reveal it. Now that he is safe, he dares to go ashore.

I want to come to this great route, I am afraid that I will not be able to stimulate the little aristocrat who has not seen the outside world.

Ian did not care for him, but Bill gave him a chair, poured him a glass of water, and let him sit and rest.

Cokex and Bill chatted about the sky. What they said was the scene when they met. The elderly people liked this kind of memory. Ian listened at the side and suddenly asked Bier Road with doubt. "Bill, I heard that the great route can not enter, is this true?"

He actually had doubts. This time he followed the merchant ship and listened to Bill. After they sold the goods, they also bought them and returned to the East China Sea. According to the way of reversing the mountain, Ian always thought. Ask them how they want to go back. This question has been in his heart for a long time. Now I finally asked when Cokex was there.

"Can you get in and out? Who are you listening to?" Bill asked strangely.

"Isn't it?" Ian said: "I heard that on the great route, the climate is very chaotic. The only thing that can be trusted is the record pointer, but the record pointer will only point to the next island. You want to go back, always May follow the pointer all the way, around the great route for a week?"

In fact, Ian’s so-called hearings are only from the memory of his previous reading of comics, and this is what Cromker said before, so Ian asked here, but actually wants to hear about Cox. answer.

"You are wrong!" Bill grinned and said: "We are a caravan and have no ability to penetrate the great route. Our caravan destination is just the nearest island to Gemini. There are seven such islands. It is the starting point of the seven routes on the great route."

"Even if you are not far away, but how come you come back?" Ian still frowned. "The twins are not islands. Is it impossible to record pointers here?"

When he heard the problem of Ian, Cromker finally spoke up. He pointed his finger at the high-rise lighthouse on the mountain behind him. He took the message: "Young man, if you can really get in, then What do you think is the lighthouse set up at this end of Gemini?"

"Isn't it guiding the ship that has come down from the mountain?" Ian said.

"Wrong, guiding the ship from the downside of the mountain is a purpose, and another purpose is to guide the return of the twins from the starting point of the island!" Colex Road: "Indeed, Gemini is not an island, so the record pointer It won't be affected to point to Gemini, but do you think people can't sail at all without a pointer?"

"As long as the light of the lighthouse has not been extinguished, the ships that return to the Twins will not be lost in the sea!" Cox Road said: "This has been handed down from hundreds of years ago, human wisdom! At that people The era of record pointers has not yet been invented, and navigators are advancing by the guidance of the lighthouse."

Ian understood something and nodded, but then asked: "Even if you can return to Gemini from the starting point of the island, how can you get out? Can't you take the wind?"

"It is true that caravans like ours can't walk without wind!" Bill said: "No wind belt is very dangerous. Even a warship equipped with sea stone does not necessarily guarantee that it will pass through every time." No wind belt, let alone our ordinary merchant ships, but... we have our way!"

When it comes to this, Bill is squinting at Ian and asks: "Ian, what do you think are the reasons for the impact of the ocean tide?"

Ian thought for a moment and said: "Climate, temperature, and geography..."

Bill shook his head: "You are talking about one of the factors, but forget the most important one!"

After that, he pointed at the sky.

Ian Yang began to look up at the sky with a puzzled look and said: "Heaven? You will not be rain... Sun... Ah! I know, it is the moon!"

"Yes!" Bill smiled and nodded. "It is the moon, the tide of the sea. It is actually caused by the gravity of the moon. If there is no moon, you will not see the tide of the sea. You will only see it." It is the surface of the dead."

Cromex also said: "The flow of water in the mountains is not always flowing like this. It is actually going to flow countercurrently. When the moon's gravity reaches its maximum when the moon is round, the water flow direction of the mountain will be reversed. Turning around, straight up from Gemini, and then split into four strands on the top of the mountain, which flow to the four oceans."

Ian’s eyes are wide, and there is this saying! ?

This is something he doesn't know at all... This real One Piece world is more wonderful than he knows...

Looking at Ian's face, Bill and Cox seem to have gained a sense of satisfaction. People who don't understand the great route or know a little about it, usually after hearing about it, will be such a surprised expression as an old man. In fact, what they like most is the expression.

"The time to reverse the mountain countercurrent is not very certain, but it is usually between the fifteen and seventeenth of each month!" Bill explained to him: "The time when the mountain is turned up, it will change from the entrance of the great route." Exports, like the caravans we want to return, will choose to come to Gemini here during this time, waiting for the countercurrent to happen, and then we can return to the blue ocean."

"This is something that most caravans who have traveled to and from the great route know!" Colex said: "Some half-way pirates don't know this, or some people who are too deep into the great route can't return to Gemini. Then, if they want to get out of the great route and return to the four seas, they will take risks and go without a wind. The strength is high, but it is true that they can really get it. If the strength is weak, they will be buried in the mouth of a large sea king. It is completely wrong to say that the great route can not enter."

Ian was rarely able to help him answer these doubts~www.novelmtl.com~ So I listened with gusto, and by the way, I asked another question, saying: "On the great route, can you only take those seven fixed routes? What?"

“Not necessarily!” Colex Road: “The so-called fixed-route statement is inaccurate because it is just the direction of the record pointer. In fact, as long as you have a permanent pointer, you can get the island from a route. , jump to another route, because the permanent pointer is not interfered by the magnetic field of the rest of the island, it will always point to an island."

"Of course, the production of permanent pointers is not easy!" Bill said: "It is said that very special production techniques and principles are required. Ordinary record pointers can be done by Clex, but he can't make permanent pointers! So in general, Permanent pointers are very precious, and people with permanent hands will be carefully carried and will not be easily seen."

However, the voice has not yet fallen, and a weak voice is ringing behind everyone: "Do you mean the permanent pointer, does it mean this?"

Ian, they glimpse together, turned their heads, but found out that it was Roland Gael, who had just come ashore. At the moment, his hand is holding a workmanship that is as exquisite as an hourglass. The round glass ball is fixed by a shelf supported by four small pillars. Among the glass spheres, there is a magnetic pointer that is suspended.

Although it looks very old, it is definitely a permanent pointer, because on the wooden board facing Ian, they can see a few letters in a vague way. Ian has carefully identified it for a while. This is what I read: "Ah...God...Alabaster!?"

Lying in the trough! ? This turned out to be a permanent pointer to Alabaster! ?
