"Lieutenant General, we are only one nautical mile away from landing on that island!”
On the warship, the marine soldier in charge of ranging shouted at Huoshan, who was standing at the bow of the ship.
"Prepare to land!"
After hearing the news, Huoshan waved his hand and said.
Normally, Huoshao Mountain would not even look at such a deserted island. In the vast sea, there were countless deserted islands like this. There was no need to excavate them at all.
Unless there was a source of fresh water on the island, it would be suitable for human habitation. However, an island that was only a dozen square kilometers had no other source of fresh water other than rainwater. Other than some seabirds, no other species lived on it!
Why did this island attract the attention of the Vice Admiral?
It was because, dozens of nautical miles away, everyone on the warship had seen a bolt of lightning that almost blinded their eyes on the island!
It was precisely because of this lightning that they had been attracted here. Perhaps it was the pirates with the Demon Fruit's ability who were fighting here, so Huoshan decided to spend some time to take a look.
They had come to the South China Sea this time just to escort the criminals. They had plenty of time. If it was a scheduled mission, the Burning Mountain would not be close at all. Instead, it would be far away!
"It should be a natural disaster."
Huo Shaoshan stood at the front of the warship and looked at the 50 soldiers who were searching the island.
He didn't go ashore personally because the bounty for pirates in the South China Sea was only about 100 million yuan. It wasn't too dangerous. Even if something really happened, he could provide support to such a small island within five minutes.
.........
"So, this is the only young man we found on the island?”
Huo Shaoshan asked the major who was in charge of leading the team to search the island.
"Yes, sir!"
"There was also a spot that was struck by lightning. A tree was directly charred, and the surrounding ground turned black.”
The major saluted and replied.
"Can you tell me why you are on this island?”
Huoshan asked Qian Ke.
Qian Ke looked like he was only 13 or 14 years old and was only 1.5 meters tall. In this abnormal world, anyone could be one or two meters tall.
Qian Ke looked at Huoshan as if he was looking at Yao Ming. He felt like he was Guo Mingming.
"I... I don't know either. When I woke up, I was already in this place. I searched for a long time but couldn't find anyone. Uncle Navy, can you take me home?”
When Qian Ke was discovered by the navy and brought here, he was already thinking about what he should do when he met the commander of this ship.
The most basic thing was to make the navy think that he was just an ordinary civilian and not a pirate. Qian Ke was sure that his current body should be able to fool him easily.
Then, he had two choices. The first was to let the navy send him to a nearby island with people. He would slowly improve his cultivation and have the strength to protect himself before going out to sea.
The second was to make the commander of the navy on this warship take a fancy to him. Of course, it was not the kind of soap picking, but to make him think that he could be a help to the navy.
"Oh?"
"Then did you see the bolt of lightning that suddenly struck the deserted island?”
Huoshan naturally wouldn't believe Qian Ke so easily.
However, when he saw Qian Ke's tattered appearance and the fact that he did not have any weapons, he naturally relaxed a lot and asked Qian Ke.
"Lightning?"
"I think I was woken up by an explosion. It's probably the sound of this lightning.”
Qian Ke continued to play dumb, his face still looking silly.
" Did you find anything else on the island?'
"For example, other people or pirates?”
Huoshan could only continue to ask.
He had a feeling that things were not simple here, but he could not find anything else wrong. He could only ask Qian Ke.
"No, I didn't. However, when I woke up, I was very hungry. I found a strange fruit, but it tasted terrible. I took a bite and stopped eating.”
"But later on, I realized that my body seemed to have electricity. I don't know what it was.”
Qian Ke answered Huoshan's question with a confused look.
Qian Ke had already made his choice. He had chosen the second option. He wanted to leave with the navy and become one.
After all, it seemed like he could earn a lot of money by being a navy officer. For example, he could deduct some supplies or make a deal with pirates. This was definitely much faster than going to an unfamiliar island and starting over.
The main reason was that Qian Ke realized that although he had the ability of the Thunder Fruit, he couldn't unleash its power at all. At the moment, he could only scorch a blade of grass, but he could only slightly darken a tree.
Qian Ke guessed that his voltage would at most stun a pig or something. If he wanted to obtain a place in this abnormal sea, he did not know how much danger he would have to take.
The navy was at least a good novice village. If they could get training, they might even be able to earn money. Naturally, Qian Ke would not let it go.
"Oh!"
"Can you use it again? Shock me?"
Hearing Qian Ke's words, Burning Mountain's eyes were shocked. He knew that Qian Ke had probably eaten a demon fruit, and it was very likely to be a lightning type demon fruit.
However, Huoshan didn't show too much surprise. Instead, he was very calm, like a strange uncle who wanted to take a little girl to see goldfish.
"Can I? Won't you hurt someone like this?"
Qian Ke acted like a fool, as if he was a kind-hearted youth.
When the surrounding soldiers saw this scene, they couldn't help but smile. They felt that the thing they had worked so hard to protect all these years really existed!
"No, I'm very strong. You can't hurt me!”
Huoshan said proudly.
As a lieutenant general, the six moves were the basics, and the domineering aura had to be cultivated. After so many years of cultivation, his body had become incomparably powerful, so he naturally would not be injured by ordinary lightning.
"Really? Then you have to be careful."
Qian Ke said in shock.
Then, he raised his right hand, and sparks flew out. Then, he carefully touched Huoshan's body.
“嗞嗞!”
Huoshan wasn't as careful. After seeing Qian Ke use his ability, he easily judged that the lightning couldn't hurt him.
Without any hesitation, he raised his arm and touched Qian Ke's right hand.
The electric current was transmitted directly into Huo Shaoshan's body, but Huo Shaoshan only felt his body go numb, and then nothing else.
