Section 2: Accidental Encounter with Bubble Island Trial Shell
Raijin Island was swept clean of shells, and Shinbei headed for the next closest uninhabited island - Shingan Island.
Although it is recent, it is also thousands of miles away.
The white ocean, having seen it many times, feels dull and desolate, a vast expanse without any embellishments. This trip is even more lonely as I am the only one on board, and not even the sailors below can engage in conversation with me, making me feel suffocated. Every day is just spent studying how to utilize the small hill-like wind bells and thunder bells that have fallen into my hands.
Finally, on the 7th day of the voyage, it appeared unexpectedly.
Xiao Long rushed over, stumbling and staggering, and cried out in a panic: "Captain Shen Bao, something's wrong! Ahead... ahead there are large amounts of foam! It's blocking our view, the ship can't navigate!"
" Foam?!" Xīn Bǎo sat up straight, this keyword made him think of the island marked on the map - Soap Island.
Soap Island is also a small island, and it's an earthy island. According to the map records, the soil area of the island has reached more than 90% of the whole island. However, unfortunately, the mud on the island contains strong alkalinity, so it is not suitable for human habitation.
It is precisely this alkaline soil that makes the mud on the island usable as soap. Every time a heavy rain falls, the entire island is submerged in this wonderful soap foam. Soap Island also has a special feature, which is that it is a relatively rare drifting island, with an unfixed location, and each time a large amount of soap acts as a lubricant around the beach, allowing Soap Island to freely slide across the White Sea with the wind.
Encountering this flying island along the way, the probability can be said to be extremely rare and a great stroke of luck (a large part of which is due to his Heaven's Blessing Bracelet).
As soon as Daijinbao stepped onto the deck, he immediately found that his field of vision was filled with these soap bubbles, large and small, numbering in the tens of thousands. Under the sunlight, they were a riot of colors, dazzling and resplendent.
"As the sailors said, there are too many bubbles and they're blocking our view. We should clear them out." Shenhao's hand opened, and Dengling immediately put the 8-stripe Deep Sea Prison Shell he had just picked up into Shenhao's hand. However, Shenhao thought for a moment and then exchanged the Prison Shell for a Cutting-type Thunder Shell.
For safety's sake, he activated his Qi Armor. Only after feeling completely secure did he slowly clench the Lei Bei in his hand.
Lei Bei's appearance is like an elliptical hand grenade, with golden spots on its surface, and lightning patterns in the middle of the spots. Shén Bǎo, without any experience, surprisingly stumbled upon the correct usage method - which is to squeeze it hard until sparks come out.
As he slowly exerted his strength, the electric flowers turned into an electric arc, and finally, Shenhao felt that Leibei had reached its limit of endurance. When he stopped using force, the entire Leibei emitted a majestic electric arc, which was like a concentrated lightning sun, beautiful yet deadly.
"Whoa, awesome! My current form is just like Kakashi's Raikiri from Naruto! So cool!!! But... this seems to be a close-range attack, forget it, I'll change to Raibi instead."
Shen Bao didn't dare to use the 8-stripe Lei Bei, but instead chose the 7-stripe spherical Lei Bei. As a result, it was found that the Lei Bei lived up to its name and indeed emitted spherical lightning darts, but this concentrated striking method was extremely unsuitable for dispersing the large pieces of soap bubbles in front of him.
"I'm so stupid, why did I keep pursuing destructive power? Soap bubbles burst with just a poke, and Windbell is great at wide-range attacks. I should have thought of using Windbell earlier!" A flash of insight struck him, bringing with it a wave of regret that made him slap his own head.
This time, he took out a 6-streaked Gale Shell. The body shape of the Gale Shell has a very strange rule. From 1 to 5 streaks, the Gale Shell gets bigger and bigger, but from 6 to 8 streaks, it gets smaller and smaller. As for the 9-streaked Gale Shell, it can produce a shell spirit, which is extremely rare and Sheng even hasn't seen one before.
The wind bead in Shen Bao's hand was like a thick and large disc, with a rounded edge and holes scattered in a clockwise direction, which made Shen Bao think of the scene where air would spray out from these holes.
"Is this Storm Ball's usage just like a boomerang, throwing it out and then catching it back?!"
Anyway, there are many such Storm Pearls in the Divine Lamp. Shen Bao decided to take a bold move. He exerted himself and threw out the Storm Pearl. As expected, the intense rotation activated the switch of the Storm Pearl, causing it to suddenly produce a storm when it flew over 100 meters away from the ship, blowing the sails taut, and for a moment, all the bubbles in the sky seemed to disappear.
Swish swish swish...
After spinning around, however, the Storm Pearl did not return to its original position as expected, but instead fell silently into the White Sea.
How did this happen?
Shen Bao was taken aback and immediately ordered the sailors to dive down and salvage. Then, they saw more soap bubbles continuously flying towards them.
"Oh, I see. Soap Island is in that direction." Shino found the direction of Soap Island by following the trend of the floating soap bubbles.
