Pirate Bloody Hand Mary

Chapter 48: Destiny

"this……"

Mary stared blankly at the huge creature in front of her, a little unsure whether she was hallucinating or not.

Oh my god... Is this kind of steampunk-style steel behemoth really something you can have in the One Piece world?

The hull was several kilometers long... In her memory, she had never seen such a large warship even in her previous life.

There are also these naval guns. How can a normal warship have such a dense arrangement of naval guns? If you count, there are hundreds of doors, almost all up and down.

Some look smaller caliber... maybe some are machine guns instead of naval guns?

Mary guessed a little uncertainly.

Under the dim light, you can see a channel several hundred meters wide next to you... Maybe this is so that this giant ship can sail out from here one day?

It is estimated that the water channel is at least a hundred meters deep. Mary does not think that a depth of several dozen meters can accommodate the waterline of this giant ship. Thinking of this, Mary was a little thankful that she was lucky and didn't fall deep into the ditch after being burned through.

Otherwise she would probably have drowned.

Just as her brain was running rapidly, those small dots of light suddenly started to move regularly and formed a line around Mary.

"You want me to go up?"

Mary looked at these light spots and said with some uncertainty.

The light spot just floated there quietly, motionless. Mary thought for a moment and then followed the path pointed by the light.

At some point, a steel frame slowly stretched out from the giant ship and was connected to the ground. The light points guided Mary to follow the iron frame and onto the deck of the giant ship.

On the deck, Mary was surrounded by complex and rough copper and iron pipes, which looked quite complicated and solid. Perhaps it was due to being in a humid place all year round. When I got closer to Mary, I discovered that moss had grown up in many places on the giant ship.

After thinking about it, Mary absorbed the vitality of these green plants.

Firstly, it is a trivial supplement, and secondly, it can be regarded as doing some cleaning work for the ship.

The deck is very open, and there are many intricate structures on it that Mary can't understand the function of. Although she followed the light spot, Mary always felt that she had to go around a few times before reaching the end of the road.

A huge steel cabin and an exaggerated sea-floor stone door.

Mary's expression was dull when she first saw the nearly ten-meter-high sea-floor stone gate. Like precious gemstones, the larger the sea floor stone, the rarer it becomes. The sea floor stone in front of me has no trace of splicing. If Warring States saw a sea floor stone of this size, he might be so excited that he couldn't sleep for a few days.

One advantage of the sea-floor stone gate is that it cannot be broken. At least Mary couldn't break through the door by force now.

The other walls were also made of a dull alloy. Mary tried to knock on it, and the feedback from her hand told her that the hardness of this thing was not much worse than that of seastone.

Japan... The defense of this giant ship is a bit scary.

Mary complained in her mind.

"Cluck, cluck, cluck..."

The sound of huge mechanical gears turning was heard, startling Mary. Taking a closer look, it was the sea-tower stone gate that slowly opened.

Mary looked at the dark cabin and swallowed, her heart skipped a beat, and she slowly walked in.

The moment she stepped into the cabin, the entire cabin suddenly lit up. The various sophisticated equipment made Mary suddenly feel as if she had returned to the laboratories in her previous life.

The door slowly closed, but Mary didn't care about that at this time. Her curiosity made her run around quickly, trying to figure out what these instruments were used for.

There are many seats, and they all seem to correspond to certain sections of instruments. It should be that the people in this cabin are responsible for different functions. But she couldn't understand at all what these things were used for, operating panels?

The main seat facing the door is facing a huge light screen full of high-tech atmosphere. Although the light screen was simply glowing without any graphics or text, Mary knew that this place should be the most important location in the cabin.

Thinking of this, Mary cautiously approached the main seat and tentatively sat on it.

"Hello, young man."

A deep old man's voice suddenly sounded, and Mary was so frightened that she stood up and was about to take out a knife.

"Calm down, kid, I'm not your enemy."

Under such circumstances, if someone suddenly says something, no one knows where they are, everyone will be shocked! ?

Mary was complaining crazily in her heart, but her mouth was still serious.

"Who are you?"

"Me? I am the will of this ship."

The old man replied slowly.

The will of the ship?

Mary was stunned for a moment when she heard this sentence, and then she immediately reacted.

There seems to be a saying about ship spirits in the world of One Piece.

"Are you the ship spirit of Hades?"

Mary said in surprise.

"Hades? What is that?"

The old man asked a little doubtfully.

Ah, wait, the names of ancient weapons seem to have been given by later generations. They themselves should not be called by this name.

Realizing that what she said was wrong, Mary scratched her head and apologized decisively.

"Uh, I'm sorry, maybe I remembered the name wrong. What's your name?"

The old man was silent for a while and replied in a deep voice:

"This ship, those people used to call me Destiny, so I probably have that name too."

"Distiny..." Mary pondered for a moment, "Destiny?"

Sitting back in the main seat, Mary knocked on the armrest of the chair and asked:

"Although it's a bit presumptuous to ask this, may I ask...how old are you?"

Mary wanted to find out the true identity of this giant ship - although she felt that it was probably Pluto, she still wanted to check to be on the safe side.

If it really is Hades...if we can pull it out, maybe we can kill Crocodile.

No, no, it should have greater strategic value.

For example...kill Whitebeard?

Mary's eyes started to shine as she thought about it.

"How old are you..."

The old man - or rather, Destiny's tone sounded like he was remembering something.

"I don't know. Since the end of the war, the person who created me sent me here and then left. I have fallen into a deep sleep since then. I don't know how long it has been until now."

"But I wake up from time to time. If I do the math, it must be at least a few hundred years ago..."

Okay, basically stable.

Mary can now be confident that this giant ship is the legendary most evil battleship in history, the Pluto that can destroy an island with one shot.

"One more question." Mary then asked, "Why did you lead me here?"

Mary could be sure of those spots of light outside. These were things sent out by fate. Although I don’t know what the principle is, it must be controlled by fate.

Mary expresses confusion at fate leading a stranger into her cabin.

"It's been hundreds of years. All my former friends are probably dead."

"You are the first human being I have seen in a long time, and you have a familiar aura on your body. I hope you can tell me something about what is happening in the world now."

Destiny explained.

"I see. Do you want to know the situation in the world after you fall asleep..."

After pondering for a moment, Mary began to briefly summarize the situation to Destiny.

In the blank history of eight hundred years ago, the World Government was established and the Golden Land was destroyed. The Neferutari family refused to become world nobles and returned to Alabasta - where their destiny now lies.

The World Government rules the whole world, and at the top of it are the Five Elder Stars. They serve the world's nobility - the Celestial Dragons.

The Celestial Dragon clan, including the Don Quixote clan and the Rosewald clan, which have now been expelled, is quite cruel and ruthless.

The country of workers seven hundred years ago, the Battle of the Valley of the Gods, the Age of Great Pirates, O'Hara's Demon-Slaying Order...

Mary told Destiny everything she roughly remembered about the plot, and it took more than half an hour for Mary to stop.

Then Mary shut up and waited quietly for fate's answer.

Destiny was silent for a long time, and then said in a rather emotional and slightly sad tone:

"We finally lost."

It was a very short sentence, but it still made Mary feel the huge amount of information in it.

"Are you... an enemy of the Celestial Dragons?"

Since he said he lost, it means that the current winner must be the enemy of fate back then.

"Enemy? Probably so."

After saying this, Destiny remained silent and seemed unwilling to discuss this issue with Mary in detail.

Mary changed several questions, such as who is the creator of destiny, who is the companion of destiny, who was fighting against whom eight hundred years ago...

Destiny made no answer at all.

Isn’t the level of trust enough?…

Mary held her forehead as she had a headache.

Also, the ship spirit who has lived for hundreds of years has much more experience than me. Come to think of it, when faced with an uninvited guest of unknown origin like himself, it would be impossible for it to tell itself a lot of information so simply.

Her mouth was a bit dry as she spoke, and Mary wiped her sweat and said:

"Destiny, please say something. You are embarrassing me like this."

Mary chatted with fate as if she were talking about everyday things.

Destiny, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke slowly:

"What is the current status of the Nefertari clan?"

"You are finally willing to speak." Mary felt very bad. "They are almost exterminated now. A big pirate named Crocodile is trying every means to destroy their country and exterminate the royal family. I was almost beaten to death by him. By chance I just came here by chance.”

"Oh, by the way, Crocodile came to Alabasta just to find you."

In the end, Mary, who felt that her fate was related to the Nefertari family, made up for it murderously.

"Did I cause them trouble..." Destiny's tone sounded a little confused, "My guest, can you do me a favor?"

"Go and help the Nefertari clan? You don't need to tell me that I will do it." Mary interrupted Destiny without hesitation, "Otherwise, why do you think I would fight with Crocodile?"

"Also, my name is Mary Vinicius, you can just call me Mary."

"Thank you very much, Your Excellency Mary. They are my benefactors, and I thank you very much for being able to fight for them."

Destiny said sincerely.

"There's no need to make up these nonsense. Well... if you really want to express your gratitude, why not lend me your power and let me drive you out. Otherwise, I may not be able to win against Crocodile."

Although I have you, I may not be able to win...

Mary didn't have an intuitive feeling about the fighting power of destiny.

In her opinion, it would be difficult for such a bulky battleship to defeat such a strong individual.

Destiny said decisively:

"I also want to help you, but unfortunately, because my power is too terrifying, maybe the former creator was worried that I would be used by others, so all my combat energy has been removed. Now I can't even move. . The only remaining energy is what they left for me to take care of my body and prevent rust. However, even so, in a few decades, these energy will probably be used up."

"eventful……"

Mary was speechless.

It's finally possible to touch an ancient weapon. You told me that the energy was unloaded...

Mary understood what these people were doing, but she just wanted to curse them.

However, Destiny's words caught Mary's attention.

The power is too terrifying...

Mary, who was doubtful about the battle power of the giant ship, thought for a moment and said about fate:

"Destiny, can you give me a copy of your...parameters for me to see?"

She wanted to see just how strong this power, which it called terrifying, was, and also use it to compare the approximate strength of several other ancient weapons.

This time, fate did not refuse. It quickly compiled a document and projected it on the light screen in front of Mary.

Mary once again lamented this unscientific black technology.

Mary slowly flipped through the document, and her expression gradually became a little...distorted?

Is this firepower a bit...

Looking at these familiar yet unfamiliar words, seeing these exaggerated data that were almost like a madman talking in his sleep, Mary stopped thinking.

"Um...is this your ship uniform?"

Mary felt her voice trembling.

"Ship uniform? What is that?"

Fate's puzzled voice came.

"This is only part of the data on active armament, classified naval guns. There are some others. Looking at your current state...do you still need them?"

"It's very much needed, please show it to me, thank you!"
