Chapter 95 The strange place

Spades are naturally the name of the ship Ace.

When I heard what Ace said, Ian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Ace was a little different from Luffy. She was not so stupid that she said she wanted to become One Piece as soon as she picked up the microphone...

Due to Jimmy's warning, you should generally be cautious when encountering such emergency distress signals, because you have no way to know whether the person who is asking for help on the other side has really died.

In this case, it would be a very clever move for Ace to only report his own ship name. If he just has the name of the ship, he would not reveal too much information.

"Save...Help!" A voice came from the other side of the microphone and said anxiously: "We are the patrol ship of the Navy G-3 branch. Our ship unfortunately hit the reef and sank. Please save us!"

Ian and Jimmy looked at each other.

Before answering the phone, Yian was still thinking about who was asking for help. He had thought about the pirates and the merchant ships, but he never thought that it was the navy.

Ace didn't answer at this time, staring at Jimmy.

Jimmy rubbed his hands and frowned and said, "The route we are on is indeed the jurisdiction of the G-3 branch. It is not surprising that there are naval patrol ships. Moreover, the next island we are going to is a desert island. There are indeed many reefs in the surrounding waters. It is indeed possible that the patrol ships will hit the reef and sink!

"So, this call for help should be true?" Yian asked.

Jimmy shook her head and said, "I can't say it, either. It may be that the pirates are under the name of the navy..."

"It doesn't matter if one pirate is!" Ace said with a smile: "We are also pirates!"

Jimmy originally wanted to say that there are often black and black among pirates, but when she thought of the power of Ace and Ian, Jimmy immediately stopped talking. If she really encountered pirates, who would be in trouble.

In fact, what Jimmy and the others were most worried about about this emergency distress signal was the Navy, fearing that this was a trap set by the Navy.

However, as soon as the other party asked for help, he showed his naval identity, which did not look like a trap.

If the navy wanted to use this method to attract pirates to the bait, they would not say that they belonged to the navy, but that they would say that they were passing merchant ships, and let greedy pirates pick up cheaply and then round up.

Ian also had similar thoughts to Jimmy. If the other party changed his identity, Ian would have doubted it, but now it seems that a naval ship was really killed.

"However, I think no matter whether it is true or not, I'll just ignore them!" Jimmy looked at Ace and said, "Captain, even if the other party is real, our identity is a pirate. I have never heard of a pirate who saved the navy!"

Ian didn't say anything, but just looked at Ace. This was his ship, and everything was up to him. He was just a boatman. Since he had not promised Ace to be his deputy captain, it was not his turn to express his opinion on this matter.

However, unexpectedly, after tilting his head for a while, Ace actually asked to the microphone: "Where are your location?"

"We are more than 160 nautical miles southwest of the island. Now we live on a reef. We have no water or food. We don't know how long we can last!" The navy opposite the microphone cried and said, "Please come as soon as possible."

Ace didn't say anything, just hung up the microphone.

Yian put away the phone bug that had fallen asleep again, and then asked Ace in surprise: "Are you going to save someone?"

"Of course!" Ace nodded with a smile: "Someone is killed, so he naturally needs to be saved!"

"But don't forget that your identity is a pirate!" Yian said: "Although you are not wanted yet, from the moment you hang the pirate flag, the navy is your enemy. So you have to save them?"

Jimmy also persuaded him: "Yes, Captain Ace, you have to think clearly!"

Azer pulled the brim of the hat, covered his eyes slightly, and whispered: "Yian, since you know the old man, you should know the old man's identity. If you don't save these navy, the old man will definitely beat me in the future!"

Old man, is this talking about Cap? Ian nodded and understood Ace's thoughts.

Just like Luffy, Ace is actually not a real pirate. In his heart, he also has his own concept of good and evil.

Although Ace always eats the King of Kings, his mind is not bad at all. Can he say that with his skills, he can't beat the chefs? Of course, this is impossible, but every time he eats the King of Kings, he runs away. He doesn't bully the weak and beat the chefs. Instead, he thanks politely and runs away...

Although he kept talking about the old man and other words, Ace still respects Grandpa Cap, who is a lieutenant general in the Navy headquarters. It is not an exaggeration to say that these naval soldiers are his subordinates. It is easy for Ace to save his grandfather's subordinates.

After instantly understanding Ace's thoughts, Yian stopped saying anything. If he wanted to save him, he would go. Anyway, the naval soldiers who died could not pose any threat to Ace.

Ace made a decision, Jimmy and the others had to follow it. Who told Ace to be the captain? His majesty still needs to be maintained. So the people from the Spade Pirates came out of the cabin, turned the sails to adjust their course, and headed forward.

About three hours later, it was almost dark, and finally arrived at the place where the naval soldiers in the deaths said.

Although it is close to the next island, it is too far away and the land of the island cannot be seen. Instead, as the ship approaches, Yian saw many reefs exposed to the water.

He had asked Jimmy before that the island that was about to approach was called the maze island by sailors, also called the vortex island. Because this island is very difficult to access, the four seas of the island are covered with various large and small open reefs and reefs. When the water flows through these reefs, it is scattered due to obstacles, and then gathers again. A sea current will often be torn into dozens of tributaries. Countless reefs bring about the chaotic direction of the ocean current like a maze, and it also triggers the emergence of vortexes.

But, there is no sea breeze around this island, which is called the small windless belt. All ships that want to get close cannot be approached by sails, and can only move forward by rowing oars. When they enter the sea area here, they will be affected by these messy ocean currents, which will make the direction difficult to control.

If you are not careful, you may be taken away by a tributary. Next, the ship may only hit the reef, and the bones remain, or you may be swept into a vortex and pulled into the seabed to turn into a shipwreck.

In short, this is a very dangerous island, but it is stuck on this route. If you want to store the record pointer, the sailors must land on the island.

Every year, a large number of ships sank in the seas around this island. Only under the leadership of a navigator who is truly proficient in navigator can the ships find the right path and thus land on the island. It can be said that this island is a place that tests navigators quite.

The navigator of the Spade Pirates is a bald man, a little old, named Spray. He seems to have rich experience. When he saw the surrounding waters, he immediately ordered the Spades to slow down and approach carefully.

Because Ian couldn't see the situation under the water, he couldn't feel the danger of this sea area. However, when Spliy explained to everyone, he realized the crisis in this sea area. At the same time, he couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Since it's so dangerous, why are the navy's patrol ships still coming here?"

Spry shrugged and said, "Who knows, but I heard that this undercurrent is a natural barrier. This maze island seems to be the stronghold of a certain pirate group. Maybe the navy came for these pirates."

Yian frowned and said, "What do you mean is that the patrol ship encountered pirates here. Because of the pursuit, it was led to the reefs and sank in the reefs?"

"It's true!" Spley said: "To be honest, sometimes pirate navigators are more powerful than those of the navy!"

Yian stopped talking, but he still felt something was strange. The Navy could not have known the dangers of this sea area. How could they be foolishly lured by the pirates here?

Everything can only be known when the naval soldiers were found.

While Ian and Spliy were talking, Ace was squatting at the bow of the boat, holding a telescope to look around, but at this time the sky was almost dark, and some mist was already rising on the sea, which was not so easy to see clearly.

But at this moment, Ace shouted in surprise: "Ah, I found them! They are there!"

Yian took his telescope and looked over. Sure enough, just about two nautical miles ahead, a large reef protruded under the sea. Several figures were standing on the reef, desperately waving the torch in his hand as a signal.

It can be seen that these figures are indeed wearing navy uniforms.

But Yian always feels something is wrong.

Then suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind and asked, "Since their ships sank from the reef, they must have fallen into the water, right?"

Spli nodded, isn't this certain?

"How did their torches light up?" asked Yian.
