Chapter 1343: Chapter 54: Red Soil Continent

Su Xiao saw Bubu Wang’s expression and crossed his hands together, meaning to watch quietly first and see which route the Navy intended to take.

The Navy had detained Su Xiao here, and he was already roughly aware of their intentions; for now, he wasn’t in any immediate danger.

Su Xiao was very curious about one thing: the Navy’s destination. If it was Mary Goya, he had to quickly find a way to escape; if it was to Impel Down in the first half of The Great Route, he didn’t need to rush to escape and could instead catch a free ride to the first half of The Great Route before planning his escape.

Moreover, General Crane kept a close watch, almost 24 hours, not leaving his side.

The Holy Land·Marinejoa was a very dangerous place for Su Xiao right now, so what Bubu Wang needed to do at the moment was to find a way to determine the destination of this trip.

After receiving this information, Bubu Wang installed a listening device on the wall and then walked slowly to the cabin exit. When it arrived at the exit, it crouched by the door patiently waiting for someone to open it.

Although Su Xiao seemed trapped, as long as the timing was right, he could escape in a short time. Not using the Demonic Hunt Time ability earlier was a wise choice.

Clang, clang, clang...

Su Xiao used the shackles in his hand to knock against the metal floor. At first, General Crane ignored it, but after Su Xiao knocked continuously for two hours, her brow furrowed tightly.

”Can’t you quiet down a bit?”

General Crane finally couldn’t tolerate it any longer. Unlike the pirates, Su Xiao was an important researcher, and orders had been given from above to capture him alive no matter the cost in soldiers’ lives or injuries.

”Can’t a prisoner have a personal hobby?”

Su Xiao continued to knock the ground with handcuffs, and after four hours, Kizaru was finally overwhelmed and used the excuse of going out for some fresh air to leave the cabin, while General Crane seemed deeply meditative, with no intention of leaving.

”General Crane, isn’t your goal in the New World to capture me?”

Su Xiao felt that if the World Government’s higher-ups hadn’t lost their minds, they wouldn’t send such high-level combat effectiveness to capture him at this time—the lineup was clearly prepared to deal with the Four Emperors: Garp + General Crane + Kizaru + five warships + over a thousand marines.

”...”

General Crane kept silent, as if she was asleep.

”Disappointed that Dressrosa wasn’t leveled by Big Mom. The most disappointed should be Sengoku and you. To the Navy, Doflamingo is a cancer that can’t be eradicated.”

Upon hearing Su Xiao’s words, General Crane opened her eyes.

”Is this why you cooperated with Doflamingo?”

”...”

This time, Su Xiao didn’t speak again, and General Crane glared at him before continuing her nap.

By now, Su Xiao was clear that it wasn’t Doflamingo who sold him out. Indeed, Doflamingo did help block the CP Department. If they had appeared, Su Xiao wouldn’t consider a feigned surrender at all.

”You’d better hope Doflamingo remains safe and sound.”

”You collaborated with Doflamingo, calling him a cancer isn’t inaccurate; he indeed is one. Rather than hoping he stays safe, I’d prefer he gets eradicated.”

General Crane seemed bored and wanted to extract some information about the New World from Su Xiao.

”Eradicating him—you’ll regret it. That guy is smart, he’s the one holding the chain, and even Big Mom doesn’t want to completely wipe out the Donquixote Family. The goods passing through a certain place every day, within half a month, can sustain the Navy’s military supplies for half a year.”

”I didn’t expect you to be so knowledgeable, but the place you’re talking about isn’t realistic.”

General Crane was using praise mixed with provocation, anticipating further intelligence from Su Xiao.

”New World? The Great Route? Imagine freely with your Navy’s might.”

”... ”

General Crane realized she was being played with but wasn’t angry. Instead, she chatted with Su Xiao nonchalantly about trivial matters.

After who knows how long, a marine entered the cabin with a tray holding grilled fish, rice balls, and a bowl of hot soup on one side and dry bread and a cup of water on the other.

It was obvious that the grilled fish and rice balls were General Crane’s lunch, while the dry bread and water were Su Xiao’s ’special’ meal.

The marine placed the bread and water on the ground, picked up a rake-like wooden pole to push the food to Su Xiao’s side.

Su Xiao grabbed the water and used it to wash off blood stains from his hands; he wouldn’t consume a single bite of the food provided by the Navy.

”I hope you maintain this toughness a few days later.”

General Crane chuckled while eating her rice ball.

Three days later.

Su Xiao sat cross-legged in the cell, shirtless and eyes closed.

Through Bubu Wang’s eavesdropping, Su Xiao had confirmed the destination of this trip, which was unlike what he imagined. He wasn’t being transported to Mary Goya, nor to Impel Down, but instead headed to Enies Lobby first.

This was unexpected for Su Xiao; to this extent, does the World Government still want to judge him?

Although he didn’t know why the World Government wanted to send him to Enies Lobby, it was good news as it meant Su Xiao didn’t need to rush to break out, especially with General Crane watching so closely—the stubborn old lady had been watching him for three days.

During these three days, Su Xiao purposely controlled his heart rate and blood flow to the lowest possible point, conserving stamina while avoiding food and water.

In the quiet cell, time had lost its meaning—fortunately, Bubu Wang would report the time in the team channel every ten minutes.

On the morning of the fourth day, Su Xiao’s eyes suddenly opened; the ship was about to dock.

The cabin door opened, and several marines entered carrying mechanical parts, and at General Crane’s gesture, the cell door was opened.

These mechanical parts held by the marines resembled dismantled armor. Through their precision, Su Xiao quickly determined it was crafted by Vega Punk.

Soon, these primitive-looking mecha parts were fitted onto Su Xiao. He ended up wearing an exterior armor suit, and when he tried to move his arm, the mechanical arm encasing it remained immovable.

Pshh～

A puff of steam burst from the inside of the mechanical arm, making Su Xiao’s arm bend slightly involuntarily.

This was an exterior armor meant to imprison prisoners, designed to detect movement and delay 5 seconds before executing action commands.

The structure of this equipment reminded Su Xiao of the Pacifists—it was essentially a Pacifist’s shell split into several pieces.

”The power transmission is too rigid; Vega Punk still hasn’t overcome this issue?”

Su Xiao’s comment caused General Crane to shake her head repeatedly; she internally regretted that if Su Xiao were loyal to the World Government, he would certainly be a top-level talent in weaponry and explosives.

Pshh～

Steam spouted as Su Xiao trudged step by step out of the cell. The various armor parts connected to short iron chains, each chain linked to a metal rod at least three meters long, held by over ten marines encircling Su Xiao.

Outside the warship, a small island awaited. This island wasn’t naturally formed but man-made, connected to an imposing red wall—the Red Soil Continent—allowing the Navy to build this island.

On the island was a Navy Branch, small but complete.
