One Piece: Heaven's Rebellion

Chapter 726 Silver Island 2
When they came to Baiyin Island, Li Wenjin and the others had just landed in the forest when they encountered an unknown enemy, and more people were coming towards them.

"Master... what are we going to do now..." Ellis was also domineering. He felt a large number of people coming, so he asked Li Wenjin.

"Wait... wait for the other party to come over and then..." Li Wenjin said.

"But the guy in the tree still seems to want to shoot us!", Ellis said to Li Wenjin, looking at the man who drew his bow and arrow again 30 meters away.

Hearing what Ellis said, Li Wenjin also looked at the arrow that the other party was about to shoot. He directly stretched out his right hand towards the tree hidden by the other party, and activated the ability of freezing fruit [Frozen Ice Bomb].

In the palm of Li Wenjin's palm, a fist-sized ice ball was condensed, and it was directly shot at the hidden tree of the opponent, embedded in it, and then from the place hit by the ice bullet, the freezing effect began. It spread towards the whole tree, and within ten seconds, the whole tree became an ice sculpture.

As for the archer hiding in the tree, he jumped out of the tree in fright, fled to another tree, and looked at Li Wenjin vigilantly, which also allowed Li Wenjin and the others to see each other's true face.

The archer who sneaked up was a young man of about the age. He was covered all over in gray clothes that seemed to be made of tree bark, so that only his face and short gray hair could be seen.

After the archer escaped from the tree, he didn't attack Li Wenjin and the others, because the ice sculpture tree beside him was reminding Li Wenjin how powerful he was, so he just stared at Li Wenjin and didn't continue to attack.

The archer was not attacking. Li Wenjin glanced at the portrait of the opponent, and then stopped paying attention to the archer. He looked towards the village where a large number of people were coming.

"Master, which archer do you think is a devil fruit capable user?" Ellis asked Li Wenjin curiously.

"Who knows!, I don't know very well, but looking at the other party, seeing the surprised appearance of the ice sculpture tree, the other party probably doesn't know the ability of the devil fruit, it may be his innate ability!", Li Wenjin said.

Ellis said with some excitement: "If it is really a talent, then it is really a very powerful race!".

"Isn't someone coming over right now? If they can hide in the trees like the archers and shield us from our arrogance, then there really is a strange nation living here," Li Wenjin said.

"That's right, I'll just wait and see!" Ellis said excitedly.

The four of them were not talking, they were all looking forward to the twenty or so people who came over, and wanted to see if they, like the sneak attacking archers, could hide in the body of the tree and block the perception of domineering and knowledgeable.

Five minutes later, a group of men dressed in exactly the same clothes as the archers who attacked them came in front of Li Wenjin and the others.

Seeing a group of men who could only see their faces, Li Wenjin greeted directly and said, "Hello! Is this Baiyin Island?".

Hearing Li Wenjin's words, a group of people on the opposite side gave way to a middle-aged man with a sunken scar the size of a thumb in the middle of his left face, and came to the front of the line.

"Who are you four... What is the purpose of coming here..." The middle-aged man stared at Li Wenjin sharply and asked.

The middle-aged man did not answer that this was Baiyin Island, but asked who they were. This made Li Wenjin guess that he might know the secret of Baiyin Island, and maybe even know where the treasure is.

That being the case, Li Wenjin said straight to the point: "We are treasure hunters, and we came here according to the instructions on the map...".

"Treasure hunter..." Hearing Li Wenjin's words, the middle-aged man frowned and did not speak. After 30 seconds of contemplation, he said calmly, "I am Boen Manqi, the head of Baiyin Village. Since you are Those who come to hunt for treasure, just follow us into the village!".

Li Wenjin boldly agreed to Bonn Manchi's invitation, "Then ask the village head Bonn Manchi to lead the way!...".

Just when Li Wenjin finished speaking, the archer who attacked Li Wenjin just now jumped down from the tree, walked up to Bonn Manche and said, "Father, that man's attack is very strange. It's frozen...'.

After talking about Bonnmanche's son, he pointed to the shining frozen tree under the sun, and asked Bonnmanche to take a closer look.

In fact, Bonnmanche had already noticed the frozen tree. After all, it was impossible for them not to see the shining frozen tree.

He didn't pay attention to Frozen Tree, just because Bonnmanqi didn't want to cause trouble, because his perception told him that Li Wenjin was a very strong character, and the more than 20 people here were no opponents at all.

Now being reminded by his son, Boen Manqi just pretended not to see it, and said to Li Wenjin: "This is my son Boen Link, if he made a reckless move just now, please forgive me...".

Bonn Manchi was so polite, and Li Wenjin didn't pursue Bonn Link's sneak attack. After all, he still needed to ask Bonn Manchi about the treasure, so he said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. We took the liberty to visit. Your son is afraid that we are bad people. There is nothing wrong with that..."

Bonnmanqi nodded, and asked the men behind him to take Bonnlink away, and finally said to Li Wenjin: "Four, please come with me! You are the first visitor in ten years, and our village should also welcome you... ".

After Bonnmanqi finished speaking, he motioned for Li Wenjin to follow them back to the village.

But Li Wenjin quickly walked up to Bonn Manchi, and asked curiously: "Mr. Bonn Manki, you said that we are the first batch of visitors in ten years, that is to say, did anyone come to hunt for treasures ten years ago?".

Bonnmanche replied as he walked: "It is true. Ten years ago, every one or two years, some treasure hunters would always come here, but I don't know why no one has come here in the past ten years...".

"Could it be that the treasure has been found..." Li Wenjin said a little depressed.

Bonnmanche shook his head and said: "The treasure has always been on Silver Island, but few people who go to find the treasure can come out alive."

"Even if someone came out alive, they all escaped empty-handed. In the end, they fled directly from Silver Island and never came back...".

Before the treasure was taken away, Li Wenjin asked with a sigh of relief: "Village Chief Boenmanqi, haven't your villagers ever thought about taking the treasure?...".

Bonnmanche shook his head and replied: "Of course some people have gone to find the treasure, but none of them came back alive. Therefore, 50 years ago, the previous village chief had issued an order that no one should go to the treasure hunt."

"Our Baiyin Island has a small number of residents. If we lose part of the population because of hunting for treasures, it will lead to the demise of the village. Therefore, in the past 50 years, our village has strictly prohibited villagers from going to treasure hunting."

According to Bonnmanche's answer, Li Wenjin did not suspect that he was telling lies, because what he said were all facts, and there was no need to lie to Li Wenjin.

Thinking that the treasure was still in Baiyin Island, Li Wenjin asked Bonn Manqi more and more things, and Bonn Manqi also told Li Wenjin all the information he knew, and let Li Wenjin know the location of the treasure in Baiyin Island. What are the specific dangers.
