Chapter 009: Objective! West Sea!

There are not only the route of crossing Mariejois to traverse the Red Earth Continent

Is that so?" Dawson looked up at the sky, then lowered his head and said, "Adrian, you seem a bit different today.

However, his expression became somewhat strange afterwards

Adrian suddenly realized something

Rest assured, instructor, I am not someone who does not understand the rules

The mountain witch child exclaimed in surprise: "Why are we going to Mary Geoise? It's not like we are going to the New World!"

It is! Instructor! X 2

After taking one last look at the small room where he had lived alone for two years, Adrian turned away without any lingering attachment, taking with him the belongings he had prepared in advance.

Dawson next to him looks quite similar as well

Although this set of work clothes cannot be considered particularly valuable, it is nonetheless the best outfit that Adrian has worn in the past two years

Beside the winding coastline, a medium-sized wooden sailboat has long been waiting here, its white sails emblazoned with the enormous emblem of the World Government

At this point, there was an added tone of warning in the voice of the mountain witch: "Especially you, Adrian!"

Risk Level: Moderate

[Attributes: Strength 59, Agility 73, Stamina 48, Intelligence 7, Charisma 9, Luck ?]

The moon is bright and the stars are few, as the morning light dispels the darkness

I knew it, every little ghost going out for field missions looks like this the first time they see the sea. The mountain witch said with a sense of familiarity, "Alright, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to sail on the sea in the future! Now it's time to board the ship!"

Perfect

We do not take the sea route, we climb over the wall

To clarify, Mary Joa is merely the connection point between the Paradise and the New World. To reach the New World from the first half of the Grand Line, one must either be able to fly or traverse one of the two routes: crossing Mary Joa or descending to Fish-Man Island

In the visible distance, the azure sea, illuminated by the morning sunlight, radiates a shimmering golden brilliance. The calling seagulls soar high, exuding an enchanting allure that captivates the senses.

Adrian involuntarily halted his steps, his heart began to pound violently within his chest, contracting into a tight ball before suddenly swelling, causing his body to tremble gently.

More than ten days later, Adrian and his companions finally arrived at their destination—a little-known small affiliated country located beneath the Red Earth Continent, the distance from Mariejois is unknown.

Adri felt a bit more at ease and cheerful, as he learned from Dawson yesterday that the Wailing Mountain Witch would be accompanying them on this journey. Although it is unclear whether she would follow them the entire way, the weaker the Wailing Mountain Witch's strength, the less resistance there would be, making the execution of his plan easier.

The red earth continent divides the world's oceans into two major parts: east and west; the great maritime routes (as well as the doldrums) divide the world's oceans into two major parts: north and south

At that moment, the mountain witch suddenly appeared out of thin air like a ghost, her voice still exceedingly unpleasant.

The days of ocean navigation are long and leisurely. Although the climate in the first half of the great route is relatively harsh, it is not as capricious as that of the New World in the latter half.

Dawson silently thought to himself that today Adrian gave him a rather dangerous feeling, something he had never experienced before.

During the boarding process, Adrian could not help but curiously ask, "Instructor Wei Qu, I forgot to confirm with you earlier, is the destination for Dawson and me indeed the West Sea?"

Based on your level and attributes, you have obtained the following information

What do you mean

Adrian stood in front of the dressing mirror, carefully adjusting the collar and cuffs of his shirt

Adrian and the others only need to go to the West Sea this time, so there is no need to pass through Mary Geoise. They just need to find any piece of land on the Red Line that borders the West Sea and then cross over from there.

This is the taste of freedom

"I will, Instructor Yamaoko. " Adrian said with a squint and a smile, casually tossing a detection device at the old woman.

Adrian responded calmly on the surface, but inwardly he scoffed, thinking that he had no intention of returning anyway, so why bother remembering any safe routes... Well, one could never be too sure; it might be wise to pay a bit more attention later, just in case

Good morning, Dawson, the weather is nice today. Adrian greeted with a smile

"Your rambling is a bit excessive, but you do read carefully; it seems I indeed did not choose the wrong person." Wei Quishan raised an eyebrow, "Unfortunately, your line of thought still has some issues! If you want to go to the West Sea, there are more routes than just the sea route."

Of course! Are you doubting the correctness of the commander?" The old woman replied somewhat impatiently.

I hope your good mood can be maintained until the completion of the task

Dawson m. hetushucomcom trusts his instincts; although he feels that he is not very intelligent, this almost beast-like intuition has always benefited him significantly

The time spent crossing the red earth continent was even greater than that spent on ocean navigation, totaling nearly a month. Finally, Adrian saw his destination— the West Sea!

Before setting off, the mountain witch instructed the two, "Remember to stay close to me! Also, do not attempt to memorize the safe routes in the jungle, as they can change at any moment!"

When he arrived at the entrance of the base, Dawson, dressed in a black suit, was standing there, staring listlessly at the jungle scenery outside the base

This set, which includes a white shirt, a black tailcoat, a bowler hat, and leather boots, was delivered last night. It serves as the "uniform" for this field mission. After all, as an agent, even without the title of the World Government, one must not tarnish the reputation of the World Government.

This is truly unexpected... so weak!

"Do you think we are going directly to the West Sea on this ship?" Wei Qu Shanhazi said as he patted the ship's railing, "Of course not! We are merely using this ship to go to the Red Earth Continent!"

[Abilities: [Six Styles], [Conceal Breath], [Intermediate Shooting], ? ]

Of course it is different, Adrian smiled, this is the best day I have felt in the past two years

Dawson and Adrian, under the guidance of the mountain witch, silently traversed through the safe zone, the danger zone, and the deadly zone, arriving unobstructed at the edge of the dense forest

So that's it, crossing the red earth continent that spans the planet? Adrian suddenly realized, this was indeed one of his blind spots

Level: Lv45

"I dare not," Adrian said, "I am just a bit curious. Isn't this small island located within the Grand Line? How can we get to the West Sea? As far as I know, for people from the Four Seas to reach the Grand Line, unless they can fly, they must either pass through the Reverse Mountain or take the risk of crossing the Calm Belt. Since it is so difficult for people from the Four Seas to come to the Grand Line, it must be equally challenging to return from the Grand Line, right?"

That is not what I meant

So, are we saying that our destination for the first half of the journey is the residence of the Celestial Dragons, the Holy Land of Mariejois

Embracing the Mountain Witch (Huang Ming)

Adrian extended his finger to tap the hard brim of his top hat, and a faint smile appeared on the young face beneath the hat, which, combined with his somewhat elongated eyes, gave off a somewhat sly and self-satisfied impression
