Halfway through the Grand Route, the red earth continent was so high that one could not see the top, and the fog covered the sky. Duke and his companions left the Devil's Triangle. After several days of bad weather and currents, they finally arrived at the dividing line that marked the halfway point of the route.
Behind the Red Earth Continent is the second half of the Grand Line, and the new world that all pirates long for. However, it is not easy to reach the new world. Although the sea is so wide, there are actually only two ways to reach the new world.
One way is to make a request to the World Government and then directly cross to Marijoa, the holy land located at the top of the Red Earth Continent, so the ship can only be abandoned. Although it costs a lot of money to buy a ship and the application takes time, it is safer.
Given Duke and Robin's identities, this path would never be open to them, and they had never considered it.
The other route is to coat the ship in the Sabaody Archipelago, then dive 10,000 meters from here, pass through a huge cave under the Red Earth Continent, and reach the New World via the "Undersea Route" Fishman Island. It does not require dealing with the government and is suitable for pirates who have committed many crimes, but it is very dangerous. Countless people die on this route every year. It is said that only 30% of people who choose this route successfully reach the New World.
If it weren't for the historical text of Fishman Island, Duke would never challenge the 30% survival rate. Huazhou ate the Door-Door Fruit. He only needed to open a door on the Red Earth Continent to reach the other side safely...
"Let's go, we're going to the Sabaody Archipelago!" Duke looked at the memory pointer. Just like what happened on Sky Island, the magnetic pointer was tilted and pointing in a confusing direction. The difference was that this time the pointer was pointing directly downwards.
Near the Naval Headquarters in Marinford, there is the world's largest mangrove tree, named Algiersa. Because the roots of the tree are always exposed above the water, a unique non-magnetic archipelago is formed, namely the Sabaody Archipelago.

"You'd better not think about running away, otherwise I will sell you in the Sabaody Archipelago. You have fair skin and tender flesh, and your fruit ability is so interesting, you should be able to sell for a good price!"
Perona is not very powerful, but she is definitely a loyal subordinate. Her loyalty to Moriah is unquestionable. Every day after becoming a captive, she thinks about how to escape from the clutches of Duke and Robin and return to Moriah's command.
“Ahhhhh————” Perona quickly covered her mouth, almost crying with fear.
"Thank you for your patronage, distinguished guests. I wish you all a pleasant day."
The entire island is made up of 79 trees, each of which has towns and facilities on it. To avoid confusion, people use 79 trees as symbols of regional divisions and write numbers on the trees.
"Perona, are you thinking of running away?"
Island 13 is located in the gray area of the Sabaody Archipelago. Along the way, Duke and his three companions encountered several groups of navy and bounty hunters fighting with pirates. Duke's first impression of this island was not good. It was very chaotic and the number of navy was too large.
Duke only glanced at it for a few seconds before throwing the brochure into the trash can. Ten thousand meters under the sea is no joke. If you are not careful, the ship will be destroyed and people will die. You have to compare three companies before making a decision on home decoration. Of course, you have to find a professional and reliable person for coating.
"Why do you say that?"
After receiving the money, the owner of the mooring place smiled and handed Duke a colorful leaflet that listed the most distinctive attractions on the island, including the bubble playground, auction house, casino, nightclub, and professional coating company.
"Because I paid!" Duke said as a matter of course.
The original novel doesn't mention where Pluto Rayleigh lives, but there are clues. His mistress is easy to find, in the notorious rip-off bar on Island 13, you can find her with a little inquiry.
"This island is close to the naval headquarters. A large number of naval forces are stationed on the island all year round. Remember to wear your mask." Duke reminded them that they would soon be in a new world and they couldn't let down at the last minute.
The biggest feature of the Sabaody Archipelago is that the roots of the Argiman mangroves secrete a special natural resin due to breathing. The resin expands due to the air to form bubbles, and then flies into the sky. Since the bubbles are only suitable for the climate range of the Argiman mangroves, once the bubbles leave the climate range of the Sabaody Archipelago, the resin component will not be able to fully exert its power and will explode.
Under Robin's control, the Dark Maru turned around and headed for the Sabaody Archipelago. Perona stood beside Robin with a cup of tea, her mind had already flown away, she was thinking about how to escape.
The pale explanation and wandering eyes clearly show that he is guilty.
"A little disappointed..." Perona was speechless. In her opinion, Rayleigh shouldn't charge any fees given his status.
The legendary big man was attracted by the shining points of the younger generation of pirates, taught them with the experience of his predecessors, and then personally did the coating to help the younger generation travel safely.
Chaos is good! It is easier to fish in muddy waters!
The era created by Pirate King Roger has arrived. His words before his death have made people rush to the sea. The rolling torrent has swept the world, and even the World Government is powerless. Since it is impossible to stop the torrent of the times, it has become the top priority of the Navy to fight against the new pirates to the greatest extent in the first half.
"Huh!?" Perona was dumbfounded. He actually charged a fee. What a down-to-earth Pluto.
The actual rulers of the Sabaody Archipelago are the Celestial Dragons. Their abuse of power has led to countless human traffickers and bounty hunters on the island. Humans, fishmen, mermen, giants and other species are all listed for sale at a marked price. Just because the Celestial Dragons need it, the slave trade has become a legal regulation. In a sense, this island is corrupt.
The Dark Maru slowly approached the shore! The Sabaody Archipelago is indeed a den of gold created by the Celestial Dragons. The cost of docking and storage of ships is extremely high. Of course, you can refuse to pay, but the possibility of losing the ship will increase a lot.
Bubble cars, bubble Ferris wheels, houses built on bubbles... bubble culture permeates every corner of Chabaodi Island! Although the Chabaodi Archipelago is full of dreamlike beauty and countless colorful soap bubbles floating in the air, it is like a fairy tale world, but the inside is extremely dark.
Who is the best master of coating technology in the Sabaody Archipelago? Duke doesn't know, but if he really has to choose one, Pluto Rayleigh, who has been professionally coating for 20 years, is undoubtedly the best candidate. After all, he is an experienced driver and his driving skills are trustworthy.
Robin, who was reading a book, spoke softly, frightening Perona so much that he trembled all over and explained in sweat: "No!!! It's absolutely not the case. How could I want to escape... Absolutely not..."
——————————————————————————————————————————————
"Is there something wrong?"
Perona wished that some blind pirate would chop off a Celestial Dragon with one blow, thus attracting the admiral to search the entire island and creating a perfect opportunity for him to escape.
"That's Pluto Rayleigh! The right-hand man of the Pirate King, the legendary great pirate. If they weren't close, why would he condescend to help us with the coating?"
I can only say that she was too naive. If she knew that when Rayleigh had no money to drink, he would sell himself and then blackmail the buyer, she probably wouldn't have thought so.
Rayleigh is a living legend, there is no doubt about that, but he is still a pirate at the end of the day...
The Sabaody Archipelago is undoubtedly the most suitable place to escape. Since it is the only way to the New World, there are many pirates, merchants and bounty hunters gathered there.
"The captain is so awesome that he actually asked Pluto Rayleigh to personally coat our ship. Do you have a good relationship with Rayleigh?" Upon learning that Duke wanted to ask Rayleigh for coating, Perona exclaimed.
"So what were you mumbling just now?" Robin asked jokingly.
Perona nodded. This is how the story should develop, in line with the style of the senior masters!
All in all, it’s just one word - chaos!
After a little thought, it is not surprising that the Sabaody Archipelago navy is so large. The pirates who went to Fishman Island in the first half gathered here to coat the film. Without the ship, they can't escape far. In addition, this place is close to the navy headquarters, so it doesn't take much time to deploy troops. It is the most suitable area to capture pirates.
Once the trickle of water stops its noise, the vast ocean will stop breathing!
The Navy's move of cutting off the source of the trouble was very clever. Without the fresh blood from the Four Seas and the first half of the Grand Line, how much trouble could it cause by relying solely on the production of pirates in the New World? Although the New World was hyped up to be magical, in terms of territory and area, any one of the Four Seas could beat it.
Of course, the pirates who survived the first half of the war were not easy to deal with. There were many vicious and ruthless pirates, and the navy did not dare to oppress their living space too much. The Sabaody Archipelago was a holiday resort for the Celestial Dragons, and there were Celestial Dragons staying there almost every day. God knew what these desperate pirates would do if they were pushed to the limit.
With this analysis, the supernovas were able to safely pass through the Sabaody Archipelago thanks to the Celestial Dragons. If it weren't for the corrupt world nobles' need for pleasure, this island would have been suppressed by heavy navy troops long ago.
