Chapter 87 Iron Fingers
The substitute armor was wrapped in a ball of dark energy, flying silently over the sea.
The closer we get to the red earth continent, the rougher the waves become, and the more turbulent they become.
………………
"It's ridiculously high!"
The image on the wall screen has been completely filled by a high crimson wall.
Lynch jumped out of bed, walked to the side and knocked on the window.
Outside, in front of the towering red earth continent, a miniature "hole" appeared in the fierce sea breeze, as if someone had dug out a piece of air.
"BIB" was hovering in the air. On its chest, behind the opened castle portal, Lynch and Robin sat side by side, looking up at the miraculous and majestic mountain in front of them.
A red soil continent stretching for tens of millions of miles, shrouded in thick fog.
"The world is divided into four oceans..." Robin was so shocked when she saw this scene that she even forgot to sneeze because of her cold. She muttered to herself, "This is the Red Earth Continent..."
No matter how detailed the description you have seen in a book, if you don’t look up at it from such a close distance, you can’t imagine how incredible it is.
"Bolu!?"
Robin heard the green Den Den Mushi scream. She turned her head and saw Lynch holding the green Den Den Mushi and reaching out, teasing it with a smile.
There was a thousand-foot-high cliff in front and a rough sea below, which scared the green Den Den Mushi quite a bit.
"Haha!" Lin Qi laughed, pointed at the red soil continent in front of him, and then waved his hand to the side, "Let's go! To the Upside-Down Mountain."
Upon hearing this, "BIB" flew close to the majestic red earth continent and shuttled through the clouds.
After the green Den Den Mushi was released, it became more and more angry. It screamed "Bo Lu" and opened its mouth to bite Lynch's fingers wildly.
Who knows why I couldn't chew it no matter how hard I tried, as if the breeder's skin had hardened...
A question mark slowly appeared on the head of the green Den Den Mushi, and it raised its two lollipop-like eyes to look at Lynch. Has the breeder become like me? In its eyes, Lynch seemed to slowly turn into a giant Den Den Mushi.
Lynch flicked it with his fingers and said with a smile, "Is my learning okay?"
With the practice of life energy, that is, the return of life, Lynch's overall quality is constantly improving with almost every big meal, every exhausting exercise or battle, every good sleep and rest... and the improvement in overall strength, in turn, deepened Lynch's mastery of the return of life.
Although I'm not yet proficient enough to make my hair dance at will.
But with a little concentration, you can make your skin tougher, make your punches and kicks more explosive, and increase the speed of your movements...all of these can be easily done.
Looking at the entrance of Upside-Down Mountain right in front of us, a huge and turbulent canal is rushing upstream at a very unscientific angle, rushing towards the top of the red soil continent.
Lynch clenched his fist.
With my current strength, if I were to meet Lafayette again, I wouldn’t have to be so embarrassed!
"It's actually a canal going upwards..." Robin couldn't help but stand up at the hole in BIB's chest, "How is it possible?"
“I’m curious too! How about going down to take a closer look?” Lin Qi also stood up, holding his trouser pockets, with the sea breeze blowing his hair. He knocked on the door frame behind the castle gate of his stand-in armor and looked up and shouted, “Ding Di—please turn right ahead, we need to get off on the roadside, thank you!”
"..." Upon hearing this, the black armor turned a corner and flew to the entrance of Upside Down Mountain, to the right side of the canal flowing upwards.
"Don't you have a cold? Come, climb a mountain and exercise!"
On the red earth continent that looked like a slope, 'BIB' stopped. At its chest, Lynch turned back and shouted inside: "Backpack! Stick!"
As he shouted, the floor of a certain level in the castle inside the armor's body, where the luggage was placed, suddenly turned into a white fluid substance, wrapped up Lynch's backpack and the iron rod, and quickly transported them to the main body waiting at the other side of the door at the chest.
Lynch put on his bag, picked up the iron bar in his hand, grinned at Robin, and took a few steps back.
“Yo~ho~~!!”
He let out a strange cry, took a few running steps, and rushed out of BIB's body.
After breaking through the coverage of the Castle Fruit user's body, Lynch's body suddenly grew larger, restored to its original size, and firmly stepped on the rugged ground of the red soil hillside.
Boom! The sound of the rushing water in the turbulent canal upstream on the left was like rolling thunder.
With a BIU sound, Robin also jumped out of BIB's body.
She squatted down and landed on the ground, touching the red soil. She looked back and saw that there was indeed no trace of the armored ghost. It was hard to imagine that they had just been in the castle inside the ghost's body and flew all the way here from Las Gap Island.
If the two of us had come here by boat, we would have probably hit the red earth continent in the turbulent sea water... Robin observed the canal flowing upstream on the left, and soon noticed that above the canal, there were "冂"-shaped stone shelves, neatly arranged one by one, going up along the canal.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"This thing must be man-made, right?"
Lin Qi carried the iron rod and walked up the stone frame fearlessly. He squatted in the middle and looked down.
On the red clay hillside, Robin used the Flower-Flower Fruit to grow arms on the stone frame at Lynch's feet. Then flowers bloomed in the palm of his hand, and an eye appeared. He observed the patterns carved on the surface of the stone frame from close range.
The head of the relief looks like a beast, but the lower body is a fish-shaped monster...
Wave-shaped patterns are carved on the top and bottom, which seem to be a metaphor for the sea...
………………
The turbulent canal rushes endlessly, extending like a backward waterfall to the top of the upside-down mountain.
On the red clay hillside on the right, Lynch carried the iron bar on his shoulders with both arms and walked with his feet swinging, as if he was just casually going hiking on vacation.
As Robin climbed the mountain, he used flowers and fruits to make flowers and knots on the "冂"-shaped stone frames he passed by and examined the carvings.
Lin Qi said casually: "I heard that serious fishmen can even change the ocean currents... Maybe this unscientific upstream canal was built by a group of idle but serious fishmen!"
"Could such a thing happen?" Robin was a little bit unbelieving. The fact that mermen could change ocean currents was already beyond the knowledge she had mastered!
What's more, this canal that turns upside down the mountain... this is not an ordinary ocean current...
Even if the murlocs could really change the ocean currents, what kind of murlocs would it take to create a canal like the one that turned the mountain upside down and allowed people to go upstream permanently? How serious would that be...
Lynch thought for a moment, "Maybe it's a sea king?"
He walked backwards and pointed his iron rod in the direction of the "冂"-shaped stone frame at the entrance of the road, which was far below, separated by a layer of clouds and mist.
"The patterns carved on those things clearly look like sea kings, don't they?"
"Sea kings don't seem to have the habit of migrating to the Grand Line through the Upside-Down Mountain..." Robin said, but his tone was not quite certain.
Lynch shrugged. "Maybe someone asked them to do this? Who knows! Anyway, they must be very ancient things..."
Could it be that the ancient "Poseidon" mermaid princess ordered the sea kings to open the Upside-Down Mountain Canal? What's the purpose...
