Pirates: Vice Captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates!

Chapter 131 Kuina's Opportunity

The deeper he went, the more unusual Jalal noticed.

A very faint but deep breathing sound appeared in his heart.

Jellal's mind net is a special observation Haki that can hear and distinguish sounds.

This is the ability granted by the Thunder Fruit.

"Now we can confirm that there is a very powerful beast in there, but its current condition is probably not very good and it is in hibernation." Gerard said.

There was something else Gerard didn't say. The breathing sound he heard felt like a dying breath.

Could it be that this beast is going to die?

"yeah!"

"See, my guess was right! In addition to the ferocious beasts, there must be a lot of treasures here!" Kuina was very excited. Jellal's words proved that her guess was correct!

And she had a vague feeling that there was something waiting for her here.

The girls did not refute, as they all knew how powerful Jellal's observation Haki was.

"Then let's go quickly and see what level of beast king it is. You know, all the large animals on this island don't dare to approach here!" Marygorude said excitedly.

Then everyone quickened their pace.

After walking for a while, everyone felt something was wrong.

The temperature got colder, but it was no longer as chilly as it had been when I first came down, and there was some frost on the ground.

The unpleasant stench in the canyon disappeared, and there were fewer and fewer animal carcasses.

"Jellal, did you feel anything?" asked the empress.

Gerard's mind net spread out, and about four hundred meters away, he found the beast with weak breathing.

However, according to Jellal's observation Haki, the size of this beast did not seem very big.

It even has little to do with the meaning of a ferocious beast.

"Well~ I have located it, but its condition is not very good and its breath is very weak." Gerard said softly.

"Then let's go over there quickly and see what it is." Kuina's voice sounded a little anxious.

Immediately, her pace quickened and she surpassed Jellal in no time.

She ran in pursuit of the mysterious voice and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

Kuina had a feeling that this beast might be related to her.

Everyone noticed that something was a little off with Kuina's condition, but no one said anything.

Just quickly catch up with Kuina.

Everyone found that the closer they got to the beast, the more they could feel a chill creeping into their bodies.

Unlike Jellal's freezing cold, this cold was gentle, like moonlight.

When everyone caught up with Kuina, the beast also appeared in front of everyone.

I saw Kuina standing not far from the beast, watching it quietly.

"This...Jellard, is this the beast we are looking for?" Sandasonia was a little skeptical.

Everyone's faces and expressions were also very strange.

In front of Kuina, there is a rabbit...

It was just as Gerard had said, its breath was very weak, and it was curled up on the ground.

If stretched out, it would probably be only about one meter long.

"This must be it!"

"Lady Snake, Jellal, I just felt it. It has been guiding me here." Kuina said in a firm tone.

Then she slowly approached the rabbit.

Guide? This rabbit is actually guiding Kuina?

Except for Gerard, everyone else was a little frightened.

Jellal remembered some legends, some legends about devil fruits.

But Jellal also had a strange look on his face. Could this rabbit be the real devil fruit?

"Let's not go over there yet, this might be Kuina's chance."

Seeing that everyone was still trying to get closer, Jellal spoke up to stop them.

Opportunity?

Although the girls were somewhat confused, out of trust in Jellal, they all stopped and looked at Kuina's next move.

At this time, Kuina had walked in front of the rabbit and squatted down.

After watching it quietly for a while, Kuina reached out to touch it.

As if it sensed someone approaching, or because of Kuina's arrival, the rabbit moved.

"Be careful, Kuina!"

Seeing that the rabbit was about to wake up, Jellal also began to be on guard.

Although the rabbit was not big, Jellal still felt a dangerous aura from it.

As soon as Gerard said this, the girls were ready to take action.

Judging from the size of the corpses of the wild beasts in the canyon, if they were really killed by this rabbit.

Then the strength of this rabbit must be extraordinary.

"It's okay, Jellal, I don't think it will hurt me." Kuina replied softly.

Kuina felt that the rabbit was very friendly. She gently stroked the rabbit's head with her small hands and a gentle smile appeared on her face.

At this time, the rabbit's eyes opened.

It raised its head with difficulty, and looked at Kuina with eyes full of humanity.

A low roar came out of its mouth.

"Little rabbit, I'm here to find you. Thank you for waiting for me for so long." Kuina said gently with her eyes narrowed.

At this time, the rabbit turned over and climbed up.

It approached Kuina, rubbed its head gently against her, and a whimpering sound came out of its mouth.

As if she understood the rabbit's cry, some sadness appeared on Kuina's face.

Seeing that the rabbit did not attack Kuina, everyone let down their guard and watched what was happening in front of them with curiosity.

"Jellard, you just said that this is Kuina's opportunity. What does that mean?" The empress looked at Jellal and asked softly.

Jellal watched the interaction between Kuina and the rabbit and said, “I’ve heard some legends before, that in some remote places, there are animals with devil fruit abilities.

These animals may have eaten the devil fruit, or they may be the devil fruit itself.

When these animals are about to die, they may sense someone who needs their power, and then guide this person here in some mysterious way.

And Kuina now fits this situation very well."

Everyone was very surprised after hearing this. Everyone knew that devil fruits had their own will.

But no one has ever heard of a situation like Guina's current one.

"In other words, it is very likely that this rabbit led us here? Just to get Kuina here?" Robin asked Jellal.

As a scholar of O'Hara and a doctor of archaeology, this strange phenomenon aroused Robin's great interest.

"It is very likely so. Think about it. When we saw this island yesterday, Kuina said that we would land here." Jellal replied softly.

At this point, the girls, including the empress, showed shock on their faces.

They felt that things seemed to be just as Gerard said!

At this time, the rabbit suddenly changed.

Its entire body emanated a white light as holy as the moon!
