101 Entering Angel Island

The old woman who was guarding the gate of Sky Island saw a bag of soil dropped by Basire, and a bright light flashed in her eyes.

The forbidden land "Upper Yard", which is the only place with soil in Sky Island, has been occupied by their God. The common people live on Angel Island, where there are only Island Clouds and no soil or "vearth" as they call it at all.

So vearth remains a treasure on Angel Island.

"Vearth is not enough for this. According to God's code, everyone who enters the country needs to pay 1 billion extols."

"However, I can buy your bag of vearth privately and let you two go."

The old woman still held a camera shell in her hand, and her eyes glowed with gold, as if she was still waiting for Basire to throw out more vearth.

"One billion? Damn old woman, why don't you just say you want to rob us?"

Burgess' eyes widened. Even they were not so shameless in collecting protection fees as pirates. This Sky Island actually dared to charge 1 billion in transit fees from everyone!

Basire did not stop Burgess. He took out a stack of bills totaling one million beris, and threw it to the old woman, and then threw in a few bags of soil from Jaya Island that he had shoveled up.

Sure enough, the old woman put away the soil and beris with satisfaction, and immediately ordered an express shrimp to pull the Dreadnaught Sabre, rushing from the 7,000-meter White Sea to the 10,000-meter White-white Sea at top speed.

At this time, Basire turned around and explained to the crew.

"One billion extols is equivalent to 100,000 beris. In Sky Island, the soil is called vearth. In the eyes of Sky Island people, it is more valuable than gold."

Basire said lightly. In fact, he didn't quite understand why Sky Island would make this kind of currency that is worth so little. The key thing is that it can actually be exchanged with beris.

But now that currency exchange rates and exchanges have occurred, why do these Sky Island people still not know the value of gold?

He really had to admire this kind of setting.

And through the ordinary route, starting from the top of the Summit of High West, you will encounter several Sky Islands along the way, and then at the end of the clouds in the east, there is a way to get off the Sky Island.

But since Sky Island can set up a point to collect entrance fees at the gate of heaven and provide express shrimp service, it shows that they still have a certain business here.

If only the Roger Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates rushed up through the Knock Up Stream, and there was only one visitor in more than twenty years, this Sky Island toll point seemed to have no meaning in existence.

"Is the golden capital of Shandora really on Sky Island?"

Robin stood on the bow of the ship and asked with some anticipation, whether it is for the historical text or to witness the existence of a legend, it is a major thing worth studying.

The Dreadnaught Sabre was advancing at an extremely fast speed, climbing rapidly along the clouds, and it felt a bit like traveling through the reverse mountain current.

"Yes, and there is so much gold there that this ship can't even hold it."

Basire chuckled and said, the reason why he was so cooperative in paying the entrance fee to the old woman and even gave a few bags of precious vearth was because he wanted to quickly rush to the Angel Island and the Upper Yard in the White-white sea.

This would help them to avoid being regarded as intruders and being intercepted by Sky Island's troops, which would waste their time.

"Wiiihahaha! Captain, are we really going to take over Sky Island?"

Burgess said excitedly, because as long as Sky Island is captured, the gold in the golden city of Shandora will belong to the Big Daddy Pirates.

"Are there any strong people on Sky Island?"

Zoro also asked casually, the crew members brought by Basire this time were all elites, which meant that there should be a fight waiting for them.

"There is a Logia user who claims to be God, and his four priests, and they have basically awakened Observation Haki, so don't be killed easily."

"Before I trap the Logia Thunder Fruit user, each of us may be struck by lightning."

Basire stared at the sky and replied, now that they were getting close, Enel's heart net, he should already be aware of their impending arrival.

The little old woman took Basire's vearth and did not report it to Enel. So Enel would not attack them here for no reason.

Enel's Thunder Fruit lets him read electromagnetic waves, and combined with his observation haki or "mantra" as they call it here, he's able to see and hear incredibly far, easily covering the entire Angel Island and Upper Yard.

His devil fruit allows him to send his lightning all over the island to deliver "divine punishment" anytime and anywhere. This ability has opened up a new world in Enel's hands.

However, Basire recalled the red-haired Shanks' Conqueror's Haki. This Yonkō could accurately frighten Admiral Greenbull who was on the island of Wano all the way from his boat.

This shows that Shanks' Observation Haki is probably also at the island level.

"Struck by lightning?"

The expressions of these crew members also became serious. If it were real lightning, it could really kill them.

They just don't know how powerful this Thunder Fruit user's lightning is.

As the Express Shrimp suddenly rushed forward with the Dreadnaught Sabre, the pirate ship rushed into the air and fell hard into the thicker White-white sea.

The Express Shrimp disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving the Big Daddy Pirates alone.

However, Basire and the others had already seen Angel Island.

"Our next conversations may be heard by that god's Observation Haki, so don't talk nonsense. If you are struck by lightning, I won't have time to protect each of you."

Basire said casually, and then directed the crew to sail the pirate ship close to the port of Angel Island.

"Observation Haki that covers the entire island? That's awesome!"

A golden light flashed in Van Augur's eyes, because as a sniper, he also wanted to have such a powerful Observation Haki.

Even the arrogant Burgess and other brutes stopped bragging.

At least they won't talk nonsense before seeing the so-called god, otherwise they won't even be able to find their enemies if they are struck by lightning from such a distance.

If their Captain uses a barrier to trap the Logia Devil fruit power, then they can launch an attack without restraint on Sky Island.

Even the Shichibukai, who owned the Logia Sand Fruit, fell in the hands of Basire. They did not believe that this Thunder Fruit user was much stronger than Crocodile.

If he was really that strong, he would have become famous in the sea long ago.

"Go directly to this god!"

As soon as they approached the port, Basire led the crew to land on Angel Island. Under the surprised eyes of these winged angel people, the Big Daddy Pirates walked straight towards the island of God, Upper Yard.

With his menacing look, you can tell at a glance that he is not a tourist or a good person.

"Halt! Where are you going? Over there is the sanctuary of God!!"

Soon, Sky Island's troops, the White Berets, stopped Basire and his crew, a group of 'tourists' who had entered the country legally, because the old woman guarding the Gate of Heaven had already sent them a notice.

These White Berets were the soldiers of the former god Gan Fall, but after Enel usurped the god's position, he turned these soldiers into the guardian troops that maintained order on Angel Island.

And he placed his own priests and divine soldiers on God's Island, Upper Yard.
